Godslayer: The Progenitor of Symbiotes

Chapter 48 Preparing for a Mission

"I can use it?! Oh my god, isn't this my chance?" Chen Shu exclaimed excitedly.

If I can acquire a suitable "body", I will have a high probability of obtaining a humanoid body that allows me to move freely.

As soon as the sound of water in the bathroom stopped, Chen Shu immediately shut up, not wanting people to mistakenly think he was crazy.

After the hairdryer had been running for a while, the bathroom door opened, and Xiaoxue, wrapped in a bath towel, walked to the bedside, looked at Chen Shu who had his back to her, and whispered, "Boss, I'm going to bed."

Chen Shu didn't even turn his head and said, "...Go ahead, you don't need to ask me, do you think I'd stop you from sleeping?"

Xiaoxue softly hummed in agreement, carefully untied her bath towel, lifted the blanket, and lay down on the bed.

Lying awkwardly on the bed, Xiaoxue glanced at the big yellow dog next to her every now and then.

I've never met her before and I'm very puzzled. Are all mysterious people this friendly? And are they not as scary as people describe them to be?

If Chen Shu knew what she was thinking, he would probably immediately reveal his true form and scare her.

……

During the day, Han Shaoyun led Chen Shu and the other person past that tavern.

Under the dim and messy lights, Huang Sha crossed his legs and held a bottle of expensive-looking foreign liquor in his hand.

On his left and right, there was a scantily clad woman leaning against him.

At this moment, Huang Sha, his face contorted with anger, forcefully poured the entire bottle of wine into the mouth of the woman on his right.

"Han Shaoyun! Let me tell you, don't try to intimidate me with Lord [Yiyu]. I didn't receive any orders not to touch that beast!"

Han Shaoyun nodded calmly, "Lord Huangsha, I'm just informing you to avoid damaging our harmony. After all, I'm only following Lord Yiyu's orders."

"Okay." Huang Sha nodded. "The master asked me to pass on a message to you. Come a little closer."

Han Shaoyun took two steps forward, and Huang Sha grinned and whispered a few words in his ear.

After hearing Huang Sha's words, Han Shaoyun's expression changed drastically, but he still nodded and turned to leave.

Huang Sha watched Han Shaoyun leave, spat, and said, "Hmph, idiot... he just wanted to turn him into a madman."

"A mysterious person who can't bring themselves to kill isn't a good mysterious person, hahaha..."

Huang Sha casually took a sip of his drink, stood up, and left the tavern.

The moment Huang Sha stepped out of the tavern, the two women he had just been embracing on either side of him instantly exploded into a pile of minced meat, mixed with a large amount of sand.

……

Whether it was because it was his first time visiting the Church of the Ancient Gods or because he was suddenly in an unfamiliar environment, Chen Shu lay on the bed, looking at the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window, without feeling sleepy at all.

"!"

Chen Shu was startled when he suddenly felt a hand on his body.

A black tentacle instantly pressed against Xiaoxue's forehead from behind.

Chen Shu looked back and saw that Xiao Xue's breathing was steady, and she looked like she was fast asleep.

Chen Shu glanced at her hand resting on him, then withdrew his tentacles and continued to contemplate life.

The next morning, Chen Shu was woken up by Xiao Xue.

"Boss, Lord Han and Lord Shenli are waiting for you outside."

When Chen Shu opened his eyes, he saw Xiao Xue squatting by the bed, whispering to him.

“…Han Shaoyun?” Chen Shu yawned; he had fallen asleep while thinking about him last night.

"Yes, Lord Han arrived very early, and it was Lord Shenli who received him."

Chen Shu nodded, jumped off the bed, and glanced at Xiaoxue. "Don't you have any clothes? Why don't you change? This outfit is a bit too small."

Xiaoxue shook her head, a little embarrassed, "No."

Chen Shu thought for a moment, realizing he must have won clothes in the lottery before. He glanced at his system space and found a white shirt, so he took it out and gave it to Xiaoxue.

"Put this on. Aren't you going to see your brother later? This will be better. I'll buy you a few more outfits later."

After Xiaoxue changed into her shirt, Chen Shu looked at her with a blank expression, but he was actually quite surprised.

The white shirt was a bit too big, just covering her short skirt and revealing her long, fair legs.

Moreover, she is only eighteen or nineteen years old and has a first-class appearance, no wonder so many people cause her trouble.

"Let's go downstairs and see what's wrong." Chen Shu turned and walked downstairs.

Shenli saw Chen Shu coming down and waved with a smile, "Boss, you stayed up pretty late last night."

Chen Shu nodded. "Yeah, I go to bed pretty late."

Han Shaoyun glanced at Chen Shu, then at Xiao Xue behind him, frowned, and looked puzzled.

"What's with that expression? What's wrong? Speak up!" Chen Shu looked at Han Shaoyun as if he were an idiot.

Han Shaoyun's expression returned to normal. "Last night, one of our teams searching for the mysterious person went missing. Today, we're going to check out the location where they disappeared."

"No, you're also searching for the mysterious?" Chen Shu looked at Han Shaoyun in surprise.

“Boss, it’s normal. The Night Watch will also arrest the mysterious when conditions permit,” Shenli explained.

Chen Shu nodded. Indeed, during the recruit training, three mysterious creatures from Sichuan were captured.

"What's the average skill level of that squad? How come they managed to capture a mysterious person and then disappear?"

Han Shaoyun shook his head. "The intelligence this time was wrong. The people sent out did not meet the minimum standards."

"The team was led by a 'Chuan' realm member and included three 'Chi' realm members, a total of ten mercenaries. The intelligence they sent back included more than one mysterious entity."

Chen Shu nodded. "One 'Chuan' realm, three 'Chi' realms, then we might be encountering a 'Hai' realm opponent. However, resolving this should be quite simple. When do we set off?"

Han Shaoyun glanced at Chen Shu and calmly said, "Only you can go. I can't. Huang Sha gave me a task this morning."

Chen Shu looked at Han Shaoyun in disbelief, "Are you kidding me? There's more than one mystery, there might even be a 'Sea' realm, aren't you going?"

Han Shaoyun calmly said, "Don't worry, according to the information they sent back before they lost contact, they didn't encounter the 'Sea' realm. Moreover, this kind of mysterious creature is afraid of fire. I remember you have a [Rose Flame Feather Robe] forbidden area, so nothing will happen."

“Okay, we can go by ourselves, but you have to lend me your [Great Wind Disaster] for a while,” Chen Shu said matter-of-factly.

"..." Han Shaoyun frowned and asked, "Have you returned this 'borrowed' item?"

"What nonsense! You said it was a loan, but your Forbidden Ruins won't disappear. Why should I return it? Besides, you have to guarantee my safety. Isn't that a guarantee?" Chen Shu retorted.

"...Alright, go recruit a few skilled fighters first. The two of you alone won't be enough for this mission."

"Okay, you pay the fee."

Han Shaoyun nodded. "Those who return alive from this mission will each receive 200,000."

"Holy crap!" Shenli looked at Han Shaoyun in shock. "So many? Did I get any after I came back?"

“You should seek payment from Lord [Yiyu]. I am merely a [believer]. According to the promise Lord Yiyu made to you, you are at the level of a divine representative.”
