My Job Is Quite Unique Chapter 107

Chapter 107 Spirit Boundary Device, Are They Going to Wipe Out a Family?

The faceless man said gloomily, “I’m also very curious why Heituo is so eager to find him. Mo Cui’s talent is not enough to make Heituo’s believers say ‘at all costs’.”

“Something big has happened in Nanfeng City. Xia Hanshi actually confiscated a Heituo statue this time. Heituo has invested a lot of effort, and the reason is probably because of this guy.”

“Curiosity can be investigated slowly. He won’t disappear out of thin air. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.” Father Pang shook his head. “I’m going to set up the banquet. I have to put on a show.”

“But what if he comes?” the faceless man suddenly asked.

Father Pang paused, hesitant, “He shouldn’t be that stupid, right?”

…

“The Pang family invited you?”

Su Chen made a turn and found Old Xia, telling him about the Pang family’s invitation.

Xia Hanshi’s eyes were cold and sharp. He sneered, “I haven’t even wrapped up my net yet, and they’re already trying to make a move.”

“Wrap up the net?” Su Chen’s heart stirred slightly. “Is the Pang family also involved with the cult?”

“Originally, I only had a seventy percent certainty, but now it’s ninety percent,” Xia Hanshi glanced at Su Chen.

“You go to a place this afternoon, before five o’clock, and be discreet.” Xia Hanshi threw out an address. Su Chen wrote it down and left with a hint of suspicion.

…

“Mr. Su Chen, the gravity training room has been installed. It can be adjusted up to fifty times.”

When Su Chen returned to his detached villa, the installation crew had already finished their work. In the empty basement, there was now a gravity room, about two meters long and three meters wide.

It was even smaller than the gravity training room he used at the hotel.

“How many times?” Su Chen heard this and couldn’t help but look at the bearded leader.

“Fifty times. This is the highest specification,” the bearded man explained. “You won’t need to change it when your rank increases in the future.”

“Once and for all,” Su Chen sighed, but also realized that this was probably Ying Feng’s bottleneck. He didn’t know how many ranks it would take to withstand such gravity, but Ying Feng’s strongest person must be far beyond that.

“And this thing…”

The alloy hatch slid open with the hum of the hydraulic system. The bearded man led him into the gravity room. On the metal table in the corner, a hexagonal mottled crystal was suspended.

“This is the spirit boundary device, but each use cannot exceed six hours. This thing hasn’t been restored for long, so I don’t know if there are any other hidden dangers,” the bearded man explained, inevitably sighing:

“To be equipped with both a gravity room and this thing, even among the core seeds, you are the first.”

“Understood, thank you.” Su Chen nodded. The bearded man was from the logistics department. After briefly explaining how to use it, he took his men and left.

After seeing them off, Su Chen immediately went to the spirit boundary device and clicked the start button.

Immediately, the crystal suddenly emitted an amber glow, and energy ripples spread out in light patterns in the air.

“I still need to run the meditation method…” Su Chen held his breath and concentrated, running the Void Star Meditation Technique. He immediately felt the difference. Even without auxiliary potions, the speed of mental energy circulation increased significantly.

“Good, good…” Su Chen became more and more emotional. Such good things could not be enjoyed without being a core seed.

Coming out of the basement, Su Chen received a message from Gu Bing, inviting him to a banquet at the Gu family’s house tomorrow night.

After thinking for a moment, Su Chen agreed.

“The mental auxiliary potion will be on this senior sister.”

He found the remaining “Illusion Essence” and inhaled it through his nose. Although the effect was somewhat reduced, it was better than nothing.

Du Yu had already been here. Seeing that he wasn’t around, he left the clothes and left first.

Su Chen was about to start training rigorously, but someone else came to visit.

“Jiang Xi?”

Su Chen opened the door and was surprised to see Jiang Xi, the Nanfeng Academy student who was preparing to enter the Crafting Department. He was holding an iron box with a mechanical hammer symbol on its surface.

“Brother Su…” he called out, looking a little excited.

Although the other party was older than him, Su Chen didn’t correct his address.

Otherwise, it would probably make this guy flustered. He looked down at the box in the other’s arms. “The Crafting Department’s mark. You got in?”

“Come in.”

He stepped aside and invited the other party in.

Jiang Xi’s throat rolled. He explained as he walked, “Originally, there was one less spot. Someone paid in advance and took my spot. Last night, I was already preparing to pack up and leave, but then I suddenly received news from the Crafting Department.”

“They said they found out that the other party cheated and let me fill in as a substitute. That’s how I got in.”

Jiang Xi spoke incoherently, his excitement barely contained. “I really have to thank you for this.”

He came from a humble background, and his talent wasn’t even good enough for bronze. After entering Nanfeng, he could only diligently learn crafting knowledge.

Once he stayed in Yingfeng, Nanfeng City would be responsible for supporting his parents, and the treatment would be excellent.

Yesterday, he had already lost heart, but he didn’t expect things to take a turn for the better.

“Is that so?” Su Chen suddenly understood and waved his hand. “If you weren’t competent yourself, even if you were a substitute, it wouldn’t be your turn.”

If it were normal elimination, the Crafting Department probably wouldn’t bother, but if someone pulled strings, it would be different.

What if one day, he suddenly remembered this colleague, and casually asked a question, it might cause trouble.

“What is this?” He looked at the box in the other’s arms, already having a vague guess.

“Oh, oh… I almost forgot.” Jiang Xi quickly put it down. He said, “This seems to be the weapon you chose. The Crafting Department asked me to deliver it.”

With the task completed, he looked a little uneasy and nervous. “Then… I’ll be leaving now.”

“Helping…” Su Chen smiled, but Jiang Xi stopped again. “By the way, about the weapon upgrade problem you asked about before, I inquired about it in the Crafting Department.”

“Normally, it’s very difficult to do, because the weapon tier depends on the material. If you replace the material, it’s equivalent to forging a new weapon.”

“If you don’t replace the material, you can’t upgrade. If you want to achieve the kind of upgrade you envision, conventional methods won’t work.”

He spoke in a rapid fire, finishing his words in one breath.

“I see…” Su Chen could roughly understand. Taking Green Rope as an example, its material only supported up to Tier 2. If the material was replaced, there would be no difference from a new weapon, and it would be impossible to continue controlling it with mystical tools.

In other words, it must achieve the weapon upgrade effect that he was additionally rewarded with when he became a Tier 1 Arcane Apprentice.

“I’m leaving now.” Seeing Su Chen silent, Jiang Xi bid farewell again.

“Wait a minute…” Su Chen called out to him, and casually pulled out the wine that Ming Lin had brought that morning, still more than half full. “Take this back and share it with your colleagues. Just say it’s half-drunk by us.”

Asking Jiang Xi to deliver something was probably because someone wanted to see what kind of relationship he had with Su Chen.

Just being from the same hometown was completely different from being friends with feelings for their hometown.

“Thank you, Brother Su…” Jiang Xi didn’t quite understand, but still accepted it.

“Conventional methods can’t do it. I wonder if there are any related professions that can.” Su Chen thought, opening the box on the ground. Inside was a pair of black metal boots.

The matte black combat boots had pure black patterns etched on their surface, each pattern absorbing the surrounding light, making the space inside the box somewhat dark. “Not bad…” Su Chen reached out and picked them up. They were quite heavy.

[Shadow Wind Boots (Tier 3): Made of Shadow Gold and assisted by various carvings, they can conceal one’s figure and increase speed.]

When he slipped them on, the fibers in the gaps of the metal armor instantly tightened, making them fit perfectly. The biomimetic alloy on the surface gradually transformed into the style of ordinary shoes, with no visible clues from the outside.

A flash of electric arc burst forth, and the patterns etched on the shoes instantly lit up. Su Chen’s figure suddenly became blurred, until it completely disappeared.

With a light movement of his feet, Su Chen only felt a blur around him, and he suddenly floated out, almost hitting the wall.

“Ha…” He was in a good mood. It had been a long time since he had experienced such an uncontrollable sense of speed.

But after a brief realization, his expression couldn’t help but become serious, and he gasped, “The consumption is also terrifying. At full speed, I estimate I can’t last for ten minutes.”

Weapons are just weapons. A Tier 1 professional can also use high-tier weapons, but the problem is whether they can withstand the consumption and the recoil.

The higher the weapon’s tier, the more powerful it naturally is, but the key is still to be compatible with oneself.

Su Chen was a top-tier professional, and his development progress had reached 50%, only then could he barely use a Tier 3 weapon.

Carefully experimenting, Su Chen gradually adapted to its functions.

“It seems this Illusion Essence is really going to be wasted.”

Looking at the time, Su Chen couldn’t help but shake his head. It was already afternoon after adapting to the new boots. He should go to the address Xia Hanshi gave him.

That place was not far from the Tribunal, and also very close to the banquet location that Pang Xingwen gave him.

He wore the mimicry mask, which he hadn’t used for a long time, and changed transportation several times, only arriving there two or three hours later.

This was a very ordinary-looking building. He went to the top floor, but when he knocked on the door, he was somewhat surprised.

It was Bu Siqi, fully armed, wearing the Tribunal’s armor.

“Senior Brother?”

“Junior brother, you’re finally here.” Bu Siqi pulled him into the room. Su Chen found that the room was full of working Judges, and a lot of precision instruments were scattered around.

“This is…”

“See that?” Bu Siqi raised his hand and pointed out the glass window. There was a brightly lit building there, and his eyes were filled with a chilling excitement.

“Is that… the Pang family building?” Su Chen raised an eyebrow, thinking of the address Pang Xingwen mentioned.

“Today, we will wipe out his family.” Bu Siqi grinned widely. “Daring to send people to track you, they’re practically asking for death!”

Because of tracking me?

Su Chen had long guessed the situation and wasn’t fooled by Bu Siqi. “Senior Brother, don’t tease me.”

“How boring.” Bu Siqi glanced at him, a little disappointed. “It’s true it’s not because of tracking you. It’s because the teacher found out that their family was colluding with the cult, and he’s gathering people to wipe them out.”

“Really going to wipe them out?” Su Chen raised an eyebrow.

“Wiping them out is truly no lie,” Bu Siqi said, “The teacher deeply despises the cult, and I estimate that today, not even a chicken or dog will be left.”

“Formal procedures? Does our Tribunal have the authority to wipe out a family directly in Yingfeng City?” Su Chen couldn’t help but ask.

“Why aren’t you excited at all?” Bu Siqi stared at him. “Of course, it’s formal procedures. If the higher-ups don’t approve, the teacher wouldn’t be so reckless.”

“As for wiping out a family in the city, it is a bit excessive, but who told them to collude with the cult?”

“Why would they choose the teacher? Everyone knows the teacher’s style. His methods are bound to be brutal. Isn’t this escalating the conflict in the city?” Su Chen frowned, secretly thinking, “Did the teacher fight for this himself?”

“No, if the Chief Judge didn’t agree, the teacher probably wouldn’t have been able to do anything.”

Su Chen suppressed other thoughts and suddenly felt a sense of amusement: “The Pang family…”

Yesterday, he was still worried about whether this family was involved with Heituo and whether he should lay low. Today, they were going to be wiped out.

Life is unpredictable.

“Teacher…” The two went up another floor, where Xia Hanshi was, still looking like a scrawny old man, standing by the window, looking at another tall building not far away.

“That’s the Pang family’s den. Today, they’re hosting a banquet for you…” Xia Hanshi’s tone was cold. “Everyone who should come has come, just in time…”

“Banquet?” Bu Siqi next to them was stunned. “There’s such a thing?”

Xia Hanshi said indifferently, “If they didn’t invite Su Chen, I wouldn’t have wanted to close the net so quickly. After all, it would be too hasty, and some might escape.”

“So it really was because of you…” Bu Siqi was stunned, not expecting the casual joke he made earlier to be so close to the truth.

Xia Hanshi turned his back to everyone: “I went to Yunlan, and coincidentally, I found a distant relative of Pang Hui there. Following the trail of the stolen Space Crystal, I recreated it and stole another one.”

“Sure enough, this news was not reported to Yingfeng immediately, but rather reported to Pang Hui through secret channels, but the information was intercepted by me.”

“I beat that guy up, but unfortunately, he wasn’t a Heretic God cultist, but I don’t need concrete evidence.”

“Combining the information from previous investigations, it can be confirmed that there is a problem with the Pang family.”

So that’s how it is. Su Chen hesitated, “But there’s no need for you to take on this mission of clearing out within the city, right?”

The city was the Supervisor Department’s territory. If Xia Hanshi took action rashly, the trouble would probably be significant.

Teng Liang looked up, his tone indifferent, and looked at Su Chen, “A request for a favor.”

Su Chen was stunned. Was it because of the simultaneous installation of the gravity room and the spirit boundary device?

Couldn’t be, right?

“Don’t overthink it, your matter is just an extra.” Xia Hanshi had already guessed what he was thinking.

“The operation time is set for 10 PM, Bu Siqi…” Xia Hanshi gave the command,

“Yes!”

“You and Su Chen stay here, don’t go anywhere.”

“Yes!” Bu Siqi was in high spirits, but then he paused, “Stay here?”

Xia Hanshi didn’t say it a second time. It was only seven o’clock, still very early before the operation. Many people were going in and out of the building opposite.

Bu Siqi was disappointed and lost all interest, leaning against the wall: “Ah… I really want to kill, I really want to kill.”

He wailed, and Su Chen looked at him frequently, silently moving his position.

Such an urban operation was very covert. They gathered personnel more than half a day in advance, dispatching them one by one, coming from all directions, silently.

Night gradually fell, and more and more people arrived. He even saw Yang Yan, who looked solemn, but was still very surprised when he saw him.

The situation was not convenient at the moment, so he didn’t come over to talk, just gave a few glances.

“Yang Yan is a Tier 4 Judge, a Tier 3 professional, but now he doesn’t even have a say,” Su Chen observed the crowd. Yang Yan followed behind a burly man.

In a few brief greetings, he learned that the other party was one of the deputy directors of the Disciplinary Tribunal, named Zhao Gang.

However, the other party dared not even breathe when facing Xia Hanshi.
