Godslayer: Agent of the Gods, the Stabilizing Force at the Start

As night fell, the last rays of the setting sun quietly disappeared below the horizon.

The two stood outside the Peace Affairs Office, watching the bustling pedestrians and vehicles on the Peace Bridge. Below the bridge flowed the Jiangnan Grand Canal, which runs through the entire city of Cangnan. This Peace Bridge is considered one of Cangnan's landmarks and also marks the boundary between the new and old districts.

On the other side of the bridge, various tall buildings stand tall, radiating dazzling neon lights.

He had seen this scene for three or four months, and by all accounts, he should have been tired of it by now. But this time, he felt something was different. Looking at the children jumping on the bridge and the white-haired old people enjoying the evening breeze... it was probably something called responsibility.

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

"See? This is the life we ​​protect. Although no one knows us, this scenery is worth it no matter how you look at it." Zhao Kongcheng rolled down the car window, looked at the scenery on the bridge, and silently lit a cigarette.

"But could you please close the car window? The cigarette ash is flying all over me," Su Ming said with disdain.

The old town is not far from the office, only a 20-minute drive away.

Within the city, due to the previous battle, the streetlights in the alleys flickered, and many of them were already out of service.

The shadows of the two figures were reflected on the mottled wall, sometimes visible and sometimes not, creating an eerie atmosphere.

The scattered lights in the alley seemed to be a reminder that people still lived there.

"I heard a lot of people have died in the old town recently. Has something happened?"

"Let's go back to your parents' house for the next couple of days; it's too dangerous here."

The two leaned against the wall of a small alley, enjoying the cool evening breeze, and listened to the young couple upstairs planning their move.

"Are those logistics guys pigs? Don't they know how to fix the streetlights? It's like we've entered a ghost town. How are we supposed to find the masked man?" Zhao Kongcheng sniffed the stench and complained.

"Old Zhao, why can't we even smell the stench anymore? Is the wind direction wrong?" Su Ming asked.

"Perhaps. Let's search against the wind later. How did this masked man suddenly become so smart?"

By the light shining from the upstairs room, Su Ming saw Zhao Kongcheng glancing at him every now and then, as if she wanted to ask him something but didn't know how to say it. It was also the first time he had seen Zhao Kongcheng act like a woman.

"Old Zhao, is there something you want to ask?"

"Since you've put it that way, I won't stand on ceremony. I just want to know if there's a way to replicate your awakening method. Forget about the Divine Ruins, even the Forbidden Ruins will do."

Zhao Kongcheng seized the opportunity to reveal his true intentions.

Su Ming thought for a moment: "There is a way to replicate it."

"Tell me quickly."

Su Ming paused, then held up one finger.

"Don't worry, as long as classes can resume, I'll definitely beg the captain to cook you another meal," Zhao Kongcheng said impatiently.

Seeing his expression, Su Ming didn't bother teasing him and said, "It's about capturing a god and forcing him to choose you as his agent. That way, you won't need to awaken the Forbidden Ruins; you can directly reach the Divine Ruins. Plus, this method can definitely be replicated. What do you think?"

Zhao Kongcheng's excitement suddenly turned to silence: "Even the highest level of humanity in our Great Xia wouldn't dare to say they can capture a god. As for me, forget it, I'll just wait until I suddenly faint and wake up like you."

"Who says there's no way? I'll catch a god for you and let you experience what it's like to be an agent."

"Yeah. Good luck. I hope I'm still alive by then."

Zhao Kongcheng wasn't really interested in listening to Su Ming's boasting, so he just gave a casual reply.

Just as the two were chatting, a golden pillar of light shot into the sky.

"It's here." The two exchanged a glance and ran toward the direction of the scent.

......

At the very center of this golden pillar of light, Lin Qiye's body completely lost control, hovering in the air in a strange posture, with endless energy spewing out from his eye sockets.

This power made him feel as if he had returned to ten years ago, across the boundless universe, to see those eyes again.

Fortunately, not much of the Seraph's power remained in his eyes. After the beam of light lasted for seven or eight seconds, Lin Qiye's body fell from mid-air.

He slowly opened his eyes; this was the first time he had seen the world in ten years.

The pillar of light disappeared, and the masked man who had been pinned to the ground by Shenwei recovered. One of them even let out a strange cry and pounced on Lin Qiye.

At this moment, Lin Qiye rolled away from the masked man's attack and picked up the broken half of the guide cane from the ground.

He scrambled to his feet, then half-squatted down, his eyes fixed on the approaching monster.

The masked man left trails of afterimages behind him, his claws reaching out, aiming for a fatal blow.

Lin Qiye had been waiting for this opportunity, and his golden eyes suddenly brightened, as if a flammable fire had been added to them.

At this moment, Lin Qiye disappeared from the masked man's eyes and transformed into a god with six wings, radiating terrifying pressure.

As a result, the body stiffened briefly.

Lin Qiye's guide cane pierced the monster's right eye with precision.

Lin Qiye, who had forcibly used his ability, was now completely exhausted, and the scenery in front of him seemed to be spinning.

But just then, another masked figure hidden in the distance made its move.

But his body was completely unable to move, and he could only watch as the fangs, dripping with sap, rapidly enlarged.

......

"This kid is really strong. He looks like he's still a minor, yet he killed a masked man all by himself. His awakened forbidden realm is also quite formidable." Zhao Kongcheng's tone was tinged with envy.

"It's my turn to take action. This kid is about to die," Su Ming said in a low voice.

Su Ming pulled the golden cudgel from his ear, and his golden eyes reappeared, like two suns, as if a god had descended to earth.

Just as the masked man was about to attack, he sensed a presence nearby and instantly turned his mask around.

Its long, scarlet tongue dangled on the ground, and its body began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Cheers------"

With a sharp shriek, she retreated, then instantly turned and ran towards Lin Qiye's side.

"What a clever beast." Su Ming couldn't help but sneer as he watched his slow-motion movements.

With golden light emanating from the golden cudgel in his hand, Su Ming's figure was like a ghost, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived beside Lin Qiye.

The golden cudgel gently tapped the masked man's body.

Bang, bang, bang...

Several loud bangs,

The masked man slammed into several walls like a ball.

It didn't even let out a scream; all that remained was a limp, mangled body, lying on the ground like a slime.

A mysterious force immediately entered Su Ming's body.

The fifth masked man—thinking there should have been six—made Su Ming feel a great sense of regret.

"You're improving every day. Yesterday you were using brute force, but today you've mastered the staff technique with effortless ease," Zhao Kongcheng said, emerging from the darkness.

Su Ming turned to look at Lin Qiye, who was sitting on the ground in a daze, smiled, squatted down, pointed at the masked man in a puddle of mud, and said with a smile, "How about it, isn't it shocking?"
