When Chen Huaian took out the Sun Soul Mirror, he had already returned to reality.
After all, he only had the required medium props on this side of reality—the tea bag and pillowcase.
He placed the Sun Soul Mirror on the pillowcase, and ripples appeared on its surface like water waves. He could vaguely see Li Qingran walking within it, with a hand holding onto Li Qingran. From the bracelet on the wrist, it was clearly Yue Qianchi. Apart from that, nothing else could be seen; everything was blurred in the mist.
“Yue Qianchi is quite good.”
Chen Huaian felt greatly relieved. He hadn’t asked Yue Qianchi to protect Li Qingran specifically.
It was entirely Yue Qianchi’s spontaneous action. Just this alone didn’t disappoint him for investing so many resources into the Sword Pavilion.
Seeing Li Qingran’s general state was already very satisfactory to him.
After all, even celestial divination couldn’t predict the specific situation inside the Secret Realm, and this mirror had done its best.
Currently, Li Qingran’s state seemed to be fine.
He took a tea bag made from a chest protector, hung it on the mirror, and walked out of his private room.
The survival rate was variable, though it was currently increasing, but out of caution, he still needed to consider the possibility of it decreasing.
Therefore, no matter what, he would carry the Sun Soul Mirror with him as a precaution.
Inside the 0th Containment Room, there was a deathly silence.
Ba Ji, Xiao Qing, Babybear, and Mr. Shrimp King were all gathered around the Nine-Turn Spirit Orchid, seemingly meditating. They didn’t even notice him coming out of the room.
It was already night time, and Chen Huaian remembered asking Zhao Ying not to disturb him for any reason.
So, he made an outgoing public call.
[Director Chen, you’ve finally come out of seclusion!] Zhao Ying’s voice trembled on the other end of the phone, her tone anxious. [Director Chen, something major has happened! The Demon-Slaying Division headquarters has been attacked by a powerful Evil Spirit. Many Resurrectors have died inside overnight. Now, the area around the Demon-Slaying Division headquarters is under strict lockdown, requesting support from demon-slaying masters from neighboring provinces!]
“Oh, and then?”
[Then? Should our C Province Demon-Slaying Division go support them? This incident is very serious; that Evil Spirit is incredibly strong!]
“Why should we care if the headquarters’ Demon-Slaying Division is massacred?” Chen Huaian dug his nose, flicking the booger onto the alloy wall.
[Uh…]
Zhao Ying was at a loss.
She remained silent for a while before hesitantly saying:
[Well… If in the future our C Province Demon-Slaying Division needs support, and no one comes to help? Also, some people speculate that after the Evil Spirit finishes massacring the headquarters, it will move on to other provincial Demon-Slaying Divisions. Right now, many provincial Demon-Slaying Divisions have already dispatched support.]
“Who gave such speculation? It must be someone from a family, right?”
[How did you know?]
Chen Huaian sneered.
Could he not know?
After all, his instruction to the Bone Porcelain Woman was to kill families, targeting only Class A Generals and above.
Now it was different from when Wuzzy Beard recruited him into the Demon-Slaying Division. Currently, the number of Generals was increasing, especially those from families.
Moreover, he hadn’t given the Bone Porcelain Woman the command to leave the Demon-Slaying Division headquarters.
All Resurrectors going to support the headquarters also followed the first rule—kill anyone with a family identity card who meets the strength requirements. If families don’t publicize that the Bone Porcelain Woman will attack other Demon-Slaying Divisions, these places not yet fully infiltrated by families might truly remain indifferent.
They were getting anxious.
As for whether they would harm innocents?
That really couldn’t be guaranteed, but considering the current state of luck deficit hadn’t changed, killing these family members wasn’t considered a sin.
[Director, so should we go support them?]
“Sure.” Chen Huaian glanced at Babybear and Mr. Shrimp King on the windowsill, nodding. “I need to continue my seclusion and can’t travel. However, I’ll let KSC-01 and KSC-02 assist you throughout your work. I suggest you not send too many demon-slaying masters over; our C Province Demon-Slaying Division suffered heavy losses during the Emperor Jiang incident, so it’s appropriate to send fewer people.”
Hearing that Chen Huaian wouldn’t lead the team, Zhao Ying felt a bit disappointed.
After all, rescuing the headquarters was a significant achievement, beneficial for Chen Huaian’s future promotion.
Although she disliked families, as a subordinate, she still hoped her superior would advance smoothly. But then she thought about the terrifying destructive power of KSC-01 and KSC-02, which combined at least showed their C Province Demon-Slaying Division’s sincerity.
“Alright, Director Chen, I’ll come to pick up KSC-01 and KSC-02 now.”
Zhao Ying hung up the phone and had Xiang Xiaoyuan screen the personnel for the final mission preparations.
…
“Got a job.”
Chen Huaian patted Babybear’s shoulder.
Babybear shuddered in fright and quickly stood up, its head already hitting the ceiling.
“Wow, grown up?” Chen Huaian looked up and down at Babybear, marveling.
This Strawberry Bear had grown by at least two sizes compared to when they first met.
He hadn’t noticed much change since he slept every day, but once it stood up, the difference became clear.
Now it was at least five or six meters tall, standing there like a wall, imposing and overwhelming.
“Why are you standing so high? Get down!”
Babybear actually lay flat on the ground with a loud thud, causing the entire containment room to tremble.
Chen Huaian held Babybear’s neck and Mr. Shrimp King’s gun barrel, glancing at them with a stern face: “Listen up, you’re going to the Demon-Slaying Division headquarters to bring back your colleague, the Bone Porcelain Woman. Your fellow Resurrectors will contain her, and I’ll make sure she cooperates. Just watch, if anyone dares to interfere, beat them to pulp, crush their heads into their chests, and knock the crap out of them!”
With that, he slapped both containment objects’ ‘shoulders’: “Understand? Nod if you do!”
Babybear nodded its huge head.
Mr. Shrimp King bent its gun barrel.
“Good.” Chen Huaian released the trembling containment objects, his face returning to a kind and benevolent expression.
“The ones picking you up are coming. Follow the rules and don’t hurt your colleagues, or I’ll crush your heads into your chests… especially yours.”
He grabbed Mr. Shrimp King’s gun barrel, lifting it, and grinned menacingly: “Don’t think only women can use your rules! From today on, men will hold you, and you’ll still shoot bullets without discounts, or I’ll break you!”
A tear fell from the vertical pupil on Mr. Shrimp King’s sniper scope, and the gun barrel bent sharply twice.
Outside, the sound of the containment room door opening echoed.
Chen Huaian shoved Mr. Shrimp King into Babybear’s hands and pushed both containment objects out: “Alright, go!”
He then turned and went back into his private room—he needed to keep an eye on things.
…
The containment room’s pressure door opened, steam swirling around.
Zhao Ying and Xiang Xiaoyuan, among others, stood ready, backed by a group of security personnel.
Those were KSC-01 and KSC-02!
Apart from the 0th Tyrant, the two most mysterious and powerful containment objects in the C Province Demon-Slaying Division.
Some security personnel’s legs were already shaking.
“Don’t be afraid, these containment objects have been calmed by the Tyrant and won’t harm us…”
Zhao Ying’s words were cut short.
Because a massive figure gradually emerged from the mist.
Blood-red eyes scanned out, radiating killing intent.
Everyone stared wide-eyed at the giant bear towering two stories high, holding their breath.
“Captain Zhao, they won’t harm us… right?” Xiang Xiaoyuan’s face was pale, teeth chattering, barely able to stand upright with a hand against the wall.
“I’m… not sure anymore…” Zhao Ying swallowed hard.
The next second.
Boom—!
To show they posed no threat, Strawberry Bear knelt on both knees, planted Dragon Sniper in the ground, and bowed to Zhao Ying and Xiang Xiaoyuan.
Then, it took out two forms from its fur pocket on its belly.
——————Employee Performance Evaluation Form——————
＜1＞Did they complete their work diligently?
＜2＞Did they harm their colleagues?
＜3＞Did they follow orders?
Please provide a comprehensive score for the employee’s performance, out of ten.
(Note: Your ratings will determine whether the employee sleeps kneeling or lying down. Please fill carefully!)
————————————————————
Zhao Ying held the two forms, her gaze shifting between KSC-01 and KSC-02, her lips twitching slightly.
Xiang Xiaoyuan shivered looking at the endless darkness inside the 0th Containment Room, giving a thumbs-up.
“Director Chen, impressive!”
