My Job Is Quite Unique Chapter 177
byAt the same time, in the temporary accommodation for unified lower-level cities in Ying Feng, Xu Siyuan hesitantly withdrew his gaze from the window.
“What exactly is Ying Feng doing? My father’s divine power suddenly appeared, then disappeared.”
“The Court of Judgment—” His expression changed. These days, he had gathered more information. Except for some key information hidden by the Court of Judgment, he had roughly deduced the course of events.
“Teng Liang killed my body and was held accountable by the Court of Judgment, which means they didn’t find any clues. It was just Teng Liang’s own idea, but for some reason, he proved to the Court of Judgment that there was a problem with my body.”
“Later, the clone wanted to retrieve the body he had painstakingly created, so he joined forces with other Demonic God believers in Ying Feng, hoping to take advantage of the situation. As a result, he himself was annihilated.”
Many people witnessed the joint operation of the Demonic God believers, and the clear-up statements published by various departments can still be found.
But for things that happened within the Court of Judgment, he was powerless.
“Teng Liang, Teng Liang—what kind of ability does this person have to see through the Faceless body?” Xu Siyuan speculated, “He is only a fifth-rank professional. I can deal with him first, see what’s special about him, and then use his body to infiltrate the Court of Judgment.”
“Hoo—” In the gravity room, Su Chen exhaled and slowly opened his eyes.
[Spirit Control Lord: 7%]
[Calamity Patrol Envoy: 7%]
[C-rank Cloud Dragon Cultivation Method—Proficiency: 12%]
[C-rank Mirage Sea Meditation Method—Proficiency: 12%]
Thanks to the average talent of a Reverse Element user, plus the simultaneous development of both professions.
The progress of both professions and body cultivation methods on the panel was unprecedentedly consistent, which greatly eased Su Chen’s slight obsessive-compulsive disorder.
In the past, different numbers were somewhat awkward.
Su Chen tidied up briefly and left his residence. There were few people in the Court of Judgment, and it had been nearly a month since Chong Jingtian and others left.
He wasn’t sure about the situation on the front lines, but it didn’t seem to be a big problem. If Ying Feng couldn’t handle just one type of Demonic God believer attack, it would have been annihilated long ago.
Upon arriving at the parking lot, Teng Liang was already waiting there.
“Senior Brother,” Su Chen greeted, this time he was preparing to complete the last requirement for [Wind Dancer], and he also called Teng Liang along.
“What has Teacher been busy with lately?” The two boarded the hovercar, then switched to a flying device, and Su Chen inquired.
“Investigating infiltrators. A group of people has already been identified,” Teng Liang said in detail, “They are from Gujiang City, people who came to participate in the assessment, and one of them is named Xu Siyuan, who should be an infiltrator.”
“Xu Siyuan?” Su Chen was quite surprised, “Such high efficiency, even identifying specific individuals?”
“Uh—” Teng Liang hesitated for a moment and said, “Speaking of which, it’s somewhat related to me.”
“A while ago, when I was on patrol outside, I ran into him by accident. He said he admired me after He Kang mentioned my reputation.”
“But after only a few words, I received Teacher’s summons and left in a hurry. Later, I found out that all these people were under strict surveillance.”
“This Xu Siyuan suddenly approached me for no apparent reason. Teacher suspects it’s related to Meng Qi’s death.”
Su Chen frowned slightly, this Divine Son was still concerned about how his clone died.
However, he didn’t expect that he had already been targeted, and was instead completely exposed to Old Xia.
“Teacher didn’t arrest anyone?” Su Chen asked.
“No.” Teng Liang was unsure, “Teacher seems to have something else to do.”
Something else?
Su Chen had been developing his profession during this time, and hadn’t seen Xia Hanshi for quite a few days.
The two chatted idly. This flight took a while, and after about half an hour, Su Chen arrived near his destination, the flying device already shaking violently.
As soon as he disembarked, a strong wind rushed towards him. What appeared before him was a colossal gray-white pillar connecting heaven and earth, tearing at the surrounding mist.
Inside the nearly ten-thousand-meter-high wind wall, thick electric arcs continuously burst forth, and python-like air current tentacles extended from the edges. This was exactly what he needed, an eight-level hurricane as defined by Ying Feng.
The formation of this hurricane was not easy. It was led by a Fifth-Rank professional who remained behind, assisted by three Fourth-Rank professionals, and took nearly half a month to create, failing many times during the process.
Although difficult, its destructive power was not too strong, only its scale was immense.
Currently, this hurricane was moving slowly towards the southeast.
Several figures drifted down. Teng Liang nodded to the leader, whose face was thin and appeared quite capable.
“Director Ruan,” Su Chen greeted. The other party was the main creator of this hurricane.
Director of Adjudication—Ruan Yu.
The wind howled, but Ruan Yu’s voice was still clearly audible. He quickly said, “In about half an hour, this hurricane will expand to level nine. An hour later, I’ll have to shatter it. Once it reaches level ten, I won’t be able to control it, and the danger will be too great.”
“Understood.” Su Chen said no more, knowing time was of the essence. He immediately shot towards the core of the storm, transforming into a flash of lightning.
The closer he got to the core, the more violent the wind became. Countless glassy wind blades struck the lightning armor on his body, emitting dazzling sparks.
An eight-level hurricane’s core area had already condensed elemental wind blades, like glass, strong enough to tear apart the bodies of Third-Rank physical professionals. Even ordinary Fourth-Ranks would struggle to maintain their footing.
But for Su Chen, the difficulty was not great. He didn’t expend much effort to penetrate it and arrive at the eye of the storm.
Here, compared to the outside, there was an almost absolute stillness.
“Hmm—Wind Song Jewel—” Su Chen reached out and took out an irregular, fist-sized, emerald-colored jewel from his storage space. It had seven holes on its surface, with delicate, transparent veins growing naturally around the edges, and crystalline fluff growing inside.
“And, Storm Feather.”
This feather was about half a meter long, with a streamlined helical shaft, gleaming with a hard, bluish-gray metallic luster. It was composed of countless tiny crystalline structures, each containing highly compressed air current energy, and naturally formed sharp serrated patterns along its edges.
“With the air current from the Storm Feather, play the Wind Song Jewel—”
Su Chen held the Wind Song Jewel in one hand and fanned the Storm Feather with the other. Inside the absolutely still eye of the storm, subtle green air currents flowed into the holes of the Jewel, stroking the crystalline fluff. It immediately emitted a strange humming sound.
“The speed gradually increases, but the interval between swings cannot be faster than 0.5 seconds—” Su Chen mumbled. These were the few experiences summarized by those who had taken up the profession before him.
As his speed increased, the sound from the Wind Song Jewel gradually became clearer and more pleasant, like a piece of music.
Time slowly passed. After about ten minutes, the Wind Song Jewel was already floating, and the Storm Feather naturally circled around it. Su Chen didn’t need to do anything further; the music continued.
From all directions, faint chimes could be heard, and streams of azure light appeared out of nowhere, gradually converging and gathering around Su Chen.
“This is the Wind Spirit.” Su Chen was quite surprised. These small creatures were highly condensed variations of wind elements, only born in natural environments, and almost impossible to capture.
“Form the Wind Dance Pact—” Su Chen spread his hands, and wind currents floated on his skin. The Wind Spirits seemed to sense something and tentatively touched his skin.
Then, as if they had found a warm nest, they surged into his body, scrambling to get in.
At the same time, the Wind Song Jewel and the Storm Feather underwent a magical transformation, as if melted by an invisible force, gradually merging into Su Chen’s body.
Su Chen only felt his entire body gradually becoming numb. These Wind Spirits seemed to pass through his body, flowing through his organs and blood.
Until a certain point, Su Chen felt his whole being had become much lighter.
“This is the Wind Dance Pact—” Su Chen pondered, this was not yet the job advancement, only the third requirement.
The so-called Wind Dance Pact was to let the Wind Spirits merge into the body, making one’s perception of wind more acute and increasing speed.
Su Chen’s eyes flashed slightly, and the last requirement was also completed.
Next was—job advancement!
Instantly, Su Chen felt as if his body, like the Wind Song Jewel, had opened countless pores, and violent air currents poured in from the void, his muscles distorting and deforming under the wind pressure.
His chest heaved like bellows, emerald wind elements surged through his meridians, his spine lit up with swirling patterns, and condensed clouds sprayed from his seven apertures.
However, this change was still tolerable for Su Chen.
[Wind Dancer job advancement successful, gained professional ability—Wind Dance Instinct: Body and wind as one, perception of threats will be extremely acute.]
After the job advancement, Su Chen gradually landed on the ground, feeling an unprecedented lightness in his body, as if he weighed nothing.
“This feeling is truly peculiar—” Su Chen looked down at his body. His clothes were torn, but his skin showed no change.
With a slight leap, he floated out.
“This—” Su Chen suddenly stopped without any warning, yet there was no change around his body.
“Air resistance is almost gone—” Su Chen tried again, confirming this point, “The speed increase brought by this is more than just a little, it’s more than double.”
The ability description was only a single sentence, but it contained many meanings that could not be described in words.
Not only that, but his stealth capability also greatly improved. Although his speed was already fast before, the commotion it caused was also significant; the faster he went, the greater the disturbance.
His current normal speed could rival elemental transformation, and after elemental transformation, it would be even more terrifying.
“I estimate that Senior Brother Teng Liang won’t even see my taillights.”
Su Chen galloped freely in the eye of the storm, his figure becoming hard to discern.
A moment later, he stopped, launching black lightning bolts that shot up overhead, then reflected back with crackling sounds, falling like a rain shower.
Su Chen closed his eyes, reined in his senses, and stood still, but at the moment the lightning was about to strike, his figure suddenly became ethereal, truly like a dancer in the wind, easily dodging the rain of falling lightning.
“Truly—a wonderful feeling.” Su Chen opened his eyes, quite pleased, “Closing my senses still allows for such a reaction. It’s like having wings in battle.”
[Wind Dance Instinct] was a passive ability, making it more convenient as he didn’t need to consciously activate it.
“As expected of a profession personally chosen by Old Pu—” Su Chen was in a great mood. After experiencing it for a while, he left the eye of the storm.
After asking Ruan Yu to deal with the hurricane and thanking him again, he left with Teng Liang. Meanwhile, at a temporary residence in a lower-level city, Xu Siyuan emerged from his room in a daze, looking at the one-armed middle-aged man who had knocked on the door. “Uncle Zhang, what’s wrong?”
“It’s our turn to move,” Zhang Lei briefly explained, then went to inform the others.
Move? Xu Siyuan’s guard went up, and he quickly followed, asking in confusion, “Why do we suddenly have to move?”
“It’s not sudden. The notice was issued seven or eight days ago; you just didn’t know,” Zhang Lei shook his head and said helplessly, “Cities that had residents living together and harbored grudges against each other erupted in significant conflicts. Ying Feng then specifically re-divided the areas, separating cities that were likely to have conflicts.”
“We’ve been moving for a while now.”
“I see,” Xu Siyuan understood and relaxed his guard. He was aware of a few conflicts, which had been quite disruptive and even involved high-level officials from Ying Feng.
Zhang Lei gathered everyone from Gujiang City, who then boarded a transport vehicle. The others were excited, speculating about where they would be moved to.
Xu Siyuan’s eyes flickered, “Currently, only Xia Hanshi and Lei Tieyan, both Sixth-Rank professionals, remain in the Court of Judgment. These two are not to be feared.”
“Right now, I only need to prepare the ritual, identify the location of that spirituality, and then draw forth divine power. As long as I act quickly enough, no one should be able to stop me.”
The war had also been going on for nearly a month, and he had gathered most of the information.
“A few days ago, there was an excellent opportunity to strike at Teng Liang, but unfortunately, I missed it—” He still regretted it, but he still had time and was not in a hurry, he could act more calmly.
“As for that Su Chen—” He pondered. Su Chen was the only one he hadn’t been able to contact during this time.
“I don’t know why Black Buddha values him so much, but I could try to take him with me too.”
The stone slab was his main objective, Teng Liang had destroyed his faceless body, and Su Chen was coveted by Black Buddha.
He didn’t want to miss any of these three targets.
The transport vehicle rumbled along for a long time before finally reaching its destination.
After getting off, the kind-faced staff led them through the main gate, and the people around them gasped in surprise.
The setup here was far superior to their previous living quarters; the stone slabs on the ground glowed with splendor, creating a magnificent atmosphere.
Zhang Lei was called to complete the formalities, arranging new rooms for them, while Xu Siyuan’s room was arranged on the third floor.
“This place is a bit too good, isn’t it?” Xu Siyuan frowned slightly, looking at the spacious room in front of him.
Do people from Gujiang City qualify for such a room?
The already assigned staff member had left the main gate and rushed to a building not far away.
Xia Hanshi was waiting there, his eyes sharp, surrounded by numerous instruments and equipment.
“Chief Justice, it’s done,” the staff member’s warm face turned cold and solemn as he reported in a low voice.
“Very good—” Xia Hanshi slowly nodded, looking at the building on the screen, and said in a deep voice, “Yuandu has used the guesthouse to harbor Faceless Ghosts and Divine Sons, attempting to overthrow Ying Feng. Their crime is unforgivable.”
