My Job Is Quite Unique Chapter 146

Chapter 146: Listening to the Sound of Faith Crushing

“See him?” Wei Zhigao’s face changed slightly, and he flatly refused: “How can I see him? Everyone here is from the Tribunal. If I’m not careful, not only him, but I will die too!”

“I don’t even know if Jiang Shumo is still watching in the dark.”

“No one is watching you, I can feel it.” The voice in his ear insisted: “This is his second appearance, and it’s probably because he sensed my presence. Since he’s come nearby, he also wants to meet me.”

“Can’t you communicate remotely?” Wei Zhigao still had some resistance, as the risk of meeting in the current situation was too high.

“I’m not giving you a choice.” The voice in his ear turned cold.

Wei Zhigao was annoyed, then a wave of sadness came over him. After a moment of silence, he could only respond helplessly in his heart: “I understand.”

“Xue Fei!” he called out, his tone laced with a hint of undetectable anger.

The door was immediately opened, and Xue Fei walked out, looking submissive. “You called me.”

“What’s happening outside?” Wei Zhigao’s voice was weak, still questioning, “Why is there so much commotion?”

“It seems that someone came to rescue the Heituo Cultist when he was being executed.” Xue Fei explained, then continued, “But don’t worry, it only looks like a big commotion, I estimate it will be resolved soon.”

“Judge You has already led people there.”

“Then why are you still here?” Wei Zhigao’s voice was cold.

“I…” Xue Fei paused, “Didn’t I need to look after you?”

“I’m in the Tribunal, who can harm me?” Wei Zhigao rebuked, “Now is the time for you to lead by example. Since there’s no danger, why don’t you go make an appearance?”

“This…” Xue Fei hesitated, saying there was no danger was for the Judge, who knew if there would be any accidents.

“Go, you fool!” Wei Zhigao’s face darkened, coughing repeatedly:

“I’ve been so severely injured, I don’t know how much longer I have to live. I can’t protect you for long. You’ll have to rely on yourself in the future. Don’t miss this opportunity.”

Xue Fei’s face twitched. He quickly said, “Don’t be angry, I’ll go now.”

“Take them all away, they’re an eyesore!” Wei Zhigao said coldly.

“Should I leave someone to look after you?” Xue Fei hesitated.

“Leave Jiang Baorui…” Wei Zhigao frowned, watching Xue Fei rush away with his men.

A moment later, Wei Zhigao called out to the remaining person, “Baorui.”

“Teacher…” The short, simple-minded fellow walked in, smiling.

Wei Zhigao’s attitude was surprisingly good, “Go to the cafeteria and get me a ‘Lava Beast Heart’ to go. Remember, it has to be freshly made.”

“Okay.” Jiang Baorui didn’t say another word and turned to go downstairs.

“Now, there are only those small fry on the first floor of the Medical Department. They are not a concern, only first and second-tier. The other party should have a way to hide from them.” Wei Zhigao thought to himself.

“As expected of the Chief Judge…” The voice praised, and Wei Zhigao remained silent.

…

“He’s really gone.”

In the space in between, Su Chen saw Xue Fei, with a gloomy face, leading three or four people out of the Medical Department’s main entrance and heading towards the outside of the Tribunal, disappearing shortly after.

“So, my guess was right. The entity I sensed has its own consciousness and also wants to meet me, the priest.”

Su Chen pondered, though it was a step closer to his plan, it also added some uncertainty.

Even if Wei Zhigao was seriously injured, the unknown consciousness’s true power was still unknown.

“But this is indeed a rare opportunity, and I am still the Black Tuo sacrificial priest, intentionally and unintentionally…”

“If push comes to shove, there’s still divine blood to clean up the mess.”

Su Chen pondered. This trip was originally to seize the opportunity, and now the opportunity was right before his eyes.

After a moment of waiting, another person walked out of the Medical Department, seemingly heading towards the cafeteria.

“Most of the people should have been transferred away. The security of the Medical Department itself is very lax, so there shouldn’t be much of a problem.”

Su Chen no longer hesitated. He emerged from the interspatial layer, but still remained in stealth mode, while also removing the Black Tuo Priest disguise.

…

“Gone again…”

In the ward, Wei Zhigao heard the voice in his ear and couldn’t help but say, “What do you mean, he left again?”

“How can this be, appearing and disappearing again, how did he do it?” The voice in his ear muttered to itself, “He shouldn’t have left, but he’s coming.”

When Wei Zhigao heard this, a hint of doubt arose in his heart. “Your senses can’t be wrong, right? This is the Tribunal, and every judge is regularly reviewed.”

“And the Black Tuo Priest’s features are too obvious, how could he get in?”

“Serving our Lord together, naturally, our hearts will sense each other. Impossible…” The voice paused, becoming a little louder: “He’s here, just outside the door.”

Wei Zhigao’s face changed slightly. The room door opened and closed silently. He could feel something enter.

Immediately, a figure emanating a cold aura gradually appeared, with a distinctive bald head and a vertical pupil formed by interwoven black lines on his scalp.

However, he was wearing a silver-gray metal mask that subtly distorted his face, making it impossible to see his features.

This figure felt somewhat familiar… Wei Zhigao had an indistinct sense of déjà vu, which was immediately replaced by tension. He couldn’t help but glance out the window, where the crimson red was gradually receding, indicating that the situation was almost over.

He was now terrified that Chong Jingtian would jump in through the window and catch them red-handed.

Su Chen looked at Wei Zhigao on the bed, who was also staring back at him. Before he could speak, he heard a voice from within Wei Zhigao’s body:

“How can Ying Feng have two priests? Why didn’t I know about this before?”

As expected, he was hidden within Wei Zhigao’s body. From the tone, he was at least a priest, or even a grand priest.

He also couldn’t see through the mask, was it because he couldn’t use other means?

Su Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This way, he could be more at ease. He said hoarsely, “The divine blood was lost, and I came urgently.”

This was simple, but Su Chen knew that even among followers of the same evil god, it was impossible to share everything.

“Are you Yuan Peng’s man?” The other party mentioned a name Su Chen had never heard, but he remained silent.

The other party’s tone was reproachful, “I told you long ago that your plan wouldn’t work. Trying to steal the stone tablet with internal help is almost impossible, and you wasted a portion of the divine blood.”

Steal the stone tablet?

Was it the stone tablet that Old Sang mentioned, which supposedly contained information about the Venerable’s profession?

That thing again, the Faceless Ghost wants it, and Black Tuo wants it too.

What does the Abyssal God want that thing for? Could it be that besides recording professional information, it has other uses?

Su Chen thought of many things at this moment, while the voice turned to Wei Zhigao and said, “Actually, that divine blood was prepared for you, but unfortunately it didn’t reach your hands.”

“Divine blood?” Wei Zhigao was slightly stunned, then realized, “Is it the precious material that Pang Hui mentioned, which can increase lifespan?”

He hadn’t expected that the Black Tuo Cultists had been targeting him for so long.

“You are hidden in his body, also to steal the stone slab. What’s the difference from our plan?” Su Chen asked, trying to elicit more information.

“I came by divine oracle and have a special mission.” The other party did not state it directly, but said instead, “The divine blood did not fall into the hands of the Tribunal, and they are still looking for it.”

“I suggest you focus on the other divine believers in Ying Feng.” He was helping me?

Su Chen was puzzled, then realized that he was being too cautious. In the other party’s eyes, he was a Black Tuo Priest, completely one of them.

Su Chen said, “Understood. What is the divine prophecy? I can put aside the divine blood for now and help you fulfill the divine prophecy.”

“Hmm…” The other party pondered for a moment, “You managed to infiltrate the Tribunal, which shows you have quite a few tricks up your sleeve. The divine prophecy is for me to take someone away, Su Chen… you should know this name.”

As expected, he came specifically for me. Su Chen confirmed this and nodded, “Indeed, I know him. Taking him away will be quite difficult.”

The other party mused for a moment, then said, “You should still look for the divine blood. Once you find it, it might be of great use later.”

“Great use?” Su Chen was puzzled. “Wei Zhigao is already under our control. Do we still need to corrupt others?”

“The people from Yuandu have arrived. They intend to gain the recognition of the Red Flame Thunder God from the stone tablet. If they succeed, things will be troublesome.” The other party did not conceal anything.

The people of Yuandu also came for the stone tablet, and the Heretic God knew that the Great Emperor’s professional information was inscribed on it.

Isn’t the Great Emperor just a profession? Does one need to gain recognition to be employed?

Su Chen couldn’t help but glance at the panel, the dazzling crimson gold characters were above all professions.

He didn’t expect this guy to know so much.

“Why is it troublesome?” Su Chen asked bluntly.

There was no response. Su Chen cautiously raised his guard, and a voice came from Wei Zhigao’s body: “You just need to obey orders.”

This guy was probably a great priest, so he could speak to a priest like that.

Su Chen turned to look at Wei Zhigao and walked straight over. “Is this person trustworthy?”

“His life is in my hands. He cherishes his life very much and will make wise choices.”

Su Chen couldn’t help but hesitate, “But he can’t hide in this state for too long. Have you figured out how to take Su Chen away? Chong Jingtian is not to be trifled with.”

“Chong Jingtian will not know when Su Chen is taken away.”

Wei Zhigao’s face was expressionless. The person inside his body was talking to the Black Tuo Priest in front of him as if no one else was there, judging him, which made him feel humiliated.

The other party had already walked to the bedside, and the dark pupils under the mask vaguely carried a hint of scrutiny and gaze.

“What advice do you have to offer?” Wei Zhigao couldn’t help but ask.

“Advice is out of the question, it’s just…” Su Chen reached out and placed his hand on Wei Zhigao’s shoulder, immediately feeling the surging Black Tuo divine power within Wei Zhigao’s body.

“So that’s how it is…” Su Chen completely understood.

Inside Wei Zhigao’s body, multiple forces were hidden. The outermost layer was the corrosive force disguised as residual divine power.

It cannot be called divine power, but merely a destructive energy with corrosive properties. Encased within it is the true Black Tuo divine power, hidden deep within.

And the Black Tuo divine power, in turn, wrapped the consciousness of the Grand Priest, layer upon layer, making him feel so strange.

“What are you doing?”

Suddenly, Wei Zhigao heard a furious roar in his ear, filled with anger.

Instantly, he felt a power stirring within him, attempting to burst forth, but it was quickly suppressed and returned to tranquility.

The authority is not as high as the other party’s… Su Chen couldn’t help but frown. He just tried to mobilize the Black Tuo divine power in the other party’s body, but was blocked.

However, if it came to authority…

“I just need to confirm that you didn’t lie to me.” Su Chen shook his head.

“Foolish, can the senses between believers be faked?” The other party retorted coldly, “Yuan Peng’s people are too impious. Get out.”

He was furious, believing that the other party had offended him.

“Sorry.” Su Chen seemed about to leave, but then, as if remembering something, he turned back again, his palm on his mask, “However, you seem unable to take Su Chen away.”

“Why?” The voice coming from Wei Zhigao’s body turned cold.

Wei Zhigao’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed, his attention completely drawn to the slowly removing mask.

But the other party’s actions paused, and he did not remove it.

Wei Zhigao’s brows furrowed, and his face changed drastically.

Unbeknownst to him, in the other person’s right hand, a dark-gold longblade had appeared, its blade shimmering with condensed azure-green lightning. Electric snakes coiled and flowed around it, emitting a low, majestic hum.

Moving at lightning speed, Su Chen flicked his wrist, and the lightning on the blade flowed with it, drawing afterimages in the air, heading straight for Wei Zhigao, who was within reach.

He wants to kill me?!

Wei Zhigao was horrified, completely unprepared for this scene.

But as a Tier 6 professional, even with the attack so close, he still reacted, instinctively wanting to resist.

However, the pain all over his body almost plunged him into despair.

The severe injuries he sustained were not fake. During the blood sacrifice, he was severely injured to the brink of death by the Black Tuo Cultists, which was why he was held captive by them.

Clang!

Su Chen’s eyebrows twitched. The blade touched Wei Zhigao’s seemingly dilapidated body, but still encountered considerable resistance, like stabbing into a sandbag made of crushed stone, emitting a crackling sound.

So tough, even in such a severely injured state, he’s truly a Tier 6 professional.

Su Chen’s eyes glowed with lightning, and the force in his hand steadily increased.

Wei Zhigao was almost in despair when he finally heard the Grand Priest’s furious voice, “What are you doing!?”

Strands of black mist seeped out from Wei Zhigao’s body, swiftly surging towards Su Chen.

Wei Zhigao breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Grand Priest within his body wasn’t useless.

But then, an unbelievable expression appeared in his eyes. The black mist that had attacked rushed towards Su Chen, but it seemed to turn into obedient little babies, circling around his body.

The Grand Priest’s voice became unbelievably, even chillingly, shocked: “Divine blood!”

“How can the divine blood be in your hands?”

“Who are you?! Why can you control the divine blood!”

He found it hard to comprehend. If the other party was a Black Tuo Priest, he wouldn’t attack him, but if he wasn’t, why could he summon the divine blood?

Clearly… he could feel the aura of the Holy Lord’s follower on the other party, so how could he attack the Grand Priest, who had a higher level of faith and was acting according to the divine oracle?

Wei Zhigao saw a dark brown object in the left hand of the person in front of him, which seemed to be the divine blood.

He also sensed that the Grand Priest’s faith in his body seemed to have been crushed.

“Do something!” Wei Zhigao roared, trying to awaken the Grand Priest.

He watched helplessly as strands of extremely concentrated black smoke, overflowing from the blade plunged into his body, quickly merged into Su Chen’s body.
