I will burn books and slay gods.

Chapter 15: Let's Set Off! New Mission!

Chen Ye looked at the room, which, though not large, housed a considerable number of people.

Almost all the superiors that Chen Ye knew had arrived.

They sat there quietly, facing Chen Ye directly, their eyes locked, a sense of unspoken pressure emanating from them.

Chen Ye glanced around and said, "Everyone's here..."

Silence filled the air; no one answered.

A powerful aura filled the entire 407, making Chen Ye worry that something serious might have happened.

Even Wang Xiaoming, who was following behind Chen Ye, walked up to them from behind and stood in front of them.

Chen Ye didn't dare to make a sound and stood in a row with Wang Xiaoming.

Not long after, the door was opened again, and Lin Su and Old Li entered.

The moment the two entered, they instantly sensed the strange atmosphere and, like Chen Ye, stood in a row with him.

As the atmosphere dropped to freezing point, the entire room was filled with an unrealistic chill.

The first to speak was an elderly gentleman who had never met Chen Ye before.

With graying hair and wearing a simple white shirt, he said in a calm tone, "I heard from Old Li that your compatibility has evolved."

Lin Su immediately replied, "Yes, Dean!"

Upon hearing the word "Dean," Chen Ye looked shocked, his eyes revealing disbelief.

This person is the director of "Morning Star Hospital".

Lin Su continued to explain, "Under Lao Li's guidance, the three of us have all undergone different changes. We cannot yet determine whether this is evolution."

After listening to Lin Su's account, the dean turned to his right and asked, "What do you think, ruler?"

Gui Chi immediately stood up and asked in the same way, "Lin Su, I heard from Old Li that the golden patterns on your pale flames are clearer now."

Lin Su nodded.

After nodding, Lin Su stretched out her palm, releasing pale flames from it, while the golden patterns became clearer as the flames burned.

Upon witnessing this change, everyone stood up and stared intently at the ball of flame.

The ruler then turned to Chen Ye and asked, "What about yours?"

Chen Ye walked out of the line unhurriedly, extending his right hand with his palm facing up.

This time, it seemed that under Chen Ye's suppression, the white light was not so dazzling, only faint.

As the white light dissipated, the crimson-gold book once again floated in Chen Ye's palm.

"This is the wordless book."

The appearance of this book once again shocked everyone.

Even the usually composed dean stood up: "Come here, child, let me take a look."

Chen Ye walked up to the dean, and slowly unfolded the wordless book in his hand; it was indeed wordless.

Just like Old Li had done before, the dean tried to reach out and touch it, but it was still out of reach.

Chen Ye explained to the dean, "Dean, this wordless book can only be touched by me."

The dean then returned to his seat.

His gaze swept over the three, but he noticed one person remained unasked: Wang Xiaoming. "Child, have you changed in any way?"

Wang Xiaoming explained to the old dean, "Dean, the changes in me are very subtle. The only difference is that my body has become clearer."

"Becoming clearer?"

After listening, the old dean hesitated at first.

Wang Xiaoming explained, "My physical characteristics are the lines of cause and effect, and my karmic obstacles are the loss of my sense of existence. After this training, my body, which was originally almost completely transparent, is now clearly visible."

The old dean nodded.

Then the old dean called out, "Old Li, come here."

Following the old dean's instructions, Old Li moved to the front of the three and said, "Dean..."

The old dean said in a helpless yet calm tone, "I cannot reward you for what you did this time..."

"I know your abilities are special, but it's wrong of you to put three children in danger like this."

"Perhaps this backfired and allowed you to succeed. But we can't do that next time. What if..."

Old Li indicated that he understood, "Yes, Dean. I understand."

After the dean finished speaking, Gui Chi stood up and said, "The organization will not criticize or reward the three of you for this situation."

"Instead, we're preparing to send you on a mission. Perhaps that will allow you to better showcase your current abilities."

Just as Instructor Gui finished speaking, the entire room shook violently, and the floor changed, beginning to slide downwards like an elevator.

Chen Ye and his two companions were utterly shocked by what they were witnessing!

At this moment, Old Li stepped forward and said, "Don't worry, Morning Star Hospital itself is a huge machine."

"Every room is connected, and you can reach any room, including the control room."

With a violent slide, they were originally in room '407', but now they have arrived at the familiar central control room.

The group walked out of "407" and came to the central control room.

The room, under the watchful eyes of everyone, returned along the same route through a series of mechanical rotations.

Gui Chi addressed the crowd, "Alright everyone, please sit down. Next, I will report on the abnormal data that occurred this week."

As everyone sat down, Gui Chi activated the massive holographic projection in the central control room: "In the past week, a total of seven incidents of 'collective cognitive bias' have occurred in four cities."

Under the control of the ruler, a new image appeared on the holographic projection, explaining that 30 employees in an office building were experiencing "time perception disorder" at the same time. Everyone thought it was still Monday, but it was actually Wednesday.

Then a second scene flashes by: passengers in a subway car are briefly "speechless," everyone remembers wanting to speak but unable to make a sound, lasting for 3 minutes.

……

After the above report was presented, Lu Yuan offered an explanation, "These incidents have characteristics of cult methods, but they are small in scale and short in duration, like... tests."

After listening to Gui Chi's report and Lu Yuan's analysis, the others agreed with him.

At this moment, the dean frowned. "Guichi, what do you think we should do next?"

Gui Chi pointed to the series of events unfolding on the holographic projection and said, "We should strengthen our defenses against the cult to prevent it from falling into enemy hands. Furthermore, we should take the initiative. The enemy is in the shadows while we are in the light, which is already a disadvantage, but we cannot just stand by and watch."

"So I stick to my original plan and will lead Chen Ye, Lin Su, and Wang Xiaoming to the City Watchers department in Pingjie City."

"Firstly, it's a valuable experience to gain from this mission; secondly, we might be able to discover things related to transportation."

After hearing the answer, the dean nodded, "Okay, then we'll proceed according to the rules!"

After hearing Gui Chi mention "City Watchers," Chen Ye became confused about this department, asking, "What does this department do?"

Sitting to the side, Lin Su explained: City Watchers are the Night Watchers' "field observers" in major cities. They do not participate in direct combat but are responsible for monitoring anomalies in the surface world.

After listening to Lin Su's explanation, Chen Ye couldn't help but exclaim, "Lin Su, you really know a lot."

After the meeting, Gui Chi instructed Chen Ye and the other two, "The three of you, be at the 0800 meeting point at 7:00 AM sharp tomorrow morning. We'll depart on time!"

"Yes!" the three answered in unison.

Back in his room, Chen Ye released the blank book again, only to find it was still blank.

"How exactly do I make the writing appear on it?"

Chen Ye tried to write on it with a pen, but still couldn't reach the book.

Chen Ye put the blank book away again, lay down on the bed, pondered for a while, and then fell asleep.

The next day, the sky was still foggy, with only a faint glimmer of light shining through the mist onto the window.

Meanwhile, Chen Ye got out of bed early and started packing his things.

Although there wasn't much to tidy up in the room, there were only a few books that I often read, which were always with me.

After finishing tidying up, Chen Ye checked the time and then walked through the corridor to meet Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming.

We then arrived at the 0800 meeting point together and the assembly was complete.

Meanwhile, the instructor driving the black armored vehicle had been waiting for some time. "Get in! Let's go!"

"yes!"
