One punch calms the storm, no gods in the world

Chapter 145 Panacea
Looking at the skinny Suti in front of him, Zhang Haowu found it hard to imagine what kind of training the other party had gone through to be able to reach the level that only bloodline people could achieve with a human body. Such a person was unique in the history he knew.

"You are definitely the strongest ancient martial artist in the ancient martial arts world today. I am convinced that I lost to you."

Zhang Haowu once again expressed his respect to Su Ti, which was his respect for the opponent's boxing skills and martial arts spirit.

Then he spoke.

"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Zhang Haowu. I am a level 4 investigator in the bureau. I am also one of the only three general-level investigators currently. However, with you included, I will be the only four."

"My name is Su Xiu, and I'm the leader of the Southern Saint Sect in the ancient martial arts world."

Zhang Haowu was surprised and said, "So you are the leader of the Southern Saint Sect."

"Have you heard of me?"

"The Southern Saint Sect has been making a lot of noise recently. How could I not know about it? I didn't take it seriously at first, but I didn't expect you to be so strong."

Zhang Haowu smiled bitterly. The secret world and the ancient martial arts world are two different worlds that do not interfere with each other. He did not pay much attention to them. However, the Nansheng Sect has caused too many troubles recently, and it defeated the Xuesha Sect to become the number one sect in the ancient martial arts world of Nanjiang Province. It is hard for him not to know.

But what he didn't expect was that among the ancient martial arts sects, there would actually be such a monster with power comparable to that of a general.

The two chatted for a few more sentences. As the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting. Through this battle, the two of them truly got to know each other.

The two of them had not chatted for a few words when Director Wang and Sun Li came in with the medical team and interrupted them.

When he saw Director Wang, Su Ti paused slightly. In his keen senses, this person was actually one of his "noble men" just like Lin Qingyao.

Director Wang had a square face and the majesty of a superior, but at this moment he was smiling and walked over to speak kindly to Suti.

"Hello, hello. I am Wang Da, the director of the Nanjiang Provincial Category III Bureau. Mr. Su Xiu, your practical assessment has been confirmed to be passed. Although there are still some documents and procedures to go through, I would like to welcome you to join our Category III Bureau, the Nanjiang Provincial Bureau, in advance."

Director Wang was full of enthusiasm. He had never expected that a simple combat assessment would actually attract a general-level warrior. This was a timely help for Nanjiang Province, which was currently in serious need of general-level warriors.

Moreover, the other party has a clean background and a solid resume. With such strength, he can be put to use immediately after joining the team. How can he not be happy?

“Should I join the provincial bureau directly?”

Su Ti was surprised. He originally thought that he would be assigned to the Municipal Bureau for training first.

"Of course, Brother Su Xiu, although you haven't condensed your heart core, your strength is definitely at the general level. Our provincial bureau attaches great importance to talents like you. How could we possibly transfer you to the municipal bureau?"

Wang Da laughed and looked Su Ti up and down. The more he looked, the more satisfied he became. However, when he saw Su Ti's thin body and drooping right arm, he was not anxious, but spoke.

"This is our medical team. If you have any injuries, you can ask them to check and treat them. After the treatment is completed, we will proceed with the next step of the onboarding procedures."

"No need to worry about the injury. I can handle it myself. I can go through the entry procedures right now. My body can handle it."

Su Ti said that although his body had suffered some minor injuries in the battle with Zhang Haowu, he could still recover from this level of injury by himself with his indestructible magical power. In addition, after he cast the Heaven-shaking Seal, his right arm could also repair itself.

"Okay, in that case, Haowu, you go and check it out. Su Xiu, I'll call you Xiao Su. Since you still have the energy, go with Liu Li to complete the employment procedures. She will tell you about the obligations and benefits after you officially join the company."

Director Wang didn't waste any words at this time. This kind of talent must be captured immediately, otherwise it would be troublesome if he was abducted by other units.

"it is good."

Su Ti didn't have much energy left, but it was enough that he couldn't even complete the employment procedures, so he followed Liu Li out.

In an office, Suti was sitting on the sofa, looking at some documents in his hands.

The employment procedures were not complicated. Suti was simply provided with a few contracts printed with the emblem of the Xia nation for him to view and sign.

The responsibilities and obligations that Suti needs to fulfill, as well as the employment benefits, are also written in black and white in the contract.

First comes responsibility.

After joining the third-category bureau, he became a member of a national unit. When there was danger in the local area, he needed to obey the state's dispatch and carry out tasks. Regarding this, Suti had a problem.

"I've heard before that the Category III Bureau is the official Shia military agency that targets demons and evil spirits. So I want to ask, are there many cases of evil spirits and demons causing chaos in this world?"

Liu Li explained immediately.

"In fact, it's a lot, but it's also a little. It depends on where. As far as our Nanjiang Province is concerned, there aren't many such incidents. It's usually quite quiet. Even if there are abnormal incidents, there are level 6 and level 5 investigators to suppress them. It's rare that level 4 investigators like general-level warriors are needed. But if there really is a general-level monster or evil disaster in Nanjiang Province, as an investigator in the bureau, you can't refuse the mission within the province. Once the mission is assigned, you must go and you can't refuse. As for monster disasters outside the province, we can discuss it. You don't have to go."

After Liu Li said this, Su Ti understood.

In short, the main focus is on maintaining stability at the local level. If something happens in your own area, you must go there, and it doesn't matter whether you go to other provinces or not.

For investigators below level four, there are many hard indicators, but for level four investigators, the only hard indicator is that they cannot refuse tasks within the province.

Apart from this responsibility, everything else is welfare.

"20 million in annual allowances, 4 million in housing subsidies, free public medical facilities in the province, open access to all training facilities in the provincial bureau, the Civil Security Bureau's right to mobilize, unlimited right of self-defense, and quotas for accidental injuries and killings in combat"

Almost several entire pages of the contract were filled with the powers that Su Ti should have as a fourth-level investigator. After reading them one by one, Su Ti felt that the power of a fourth-level investigator was enormous and his status was superior, even comparable to that of some municipal officials.

One of them is the accidental injury or killing indicator during combat, which is directly equivalent to the "killing indicator". With this, any powerful and wealthy people will be afraid of it. After all, the killing exemption in the ancient martial arts world only applies to martial artists, while the accidental injury or killing indicator in the third-class bureau applies to everyone. Liu Li said: "In addition to these benefits and privileges on paper, we will also issue five elixirs to the fourth-level investigators every month. If there are combat missions, we will also give more elixirs as subsidies."

"Elixir, what is that?"

Another new term made Suti question.

Considering the other party's identity as an ancient warrior, Liu Li immediately explained.

"The elixir is called an elixir, but it is actually a spherical metal that contains a special energy magnetic field called spiritual power. It can directly replenish the heart core consumption of a general-level warrior by skin contact. If used for a long time, it can also help increase the blood concentration of a general-level warrior and improve his strength."

"If a bloodline holder with hidden bloodline uses it, there is a certain probability that the bloodline can be awakened and become a bloodline holder."

"If an ordinary extraordinary warrior uses it, it will also increase the activity of the blood in the body and enhance strength. Even if ordinary people are exposed to it for a long time, it can also increase cell activity and prolong life. In short, this is a panacea that is beneficial to any living thing without any harm."

Suti understood now.

At this time, he also read several contracts and raised any doubts he had, and got answers from Liu Li. After making sure there were no problems, he signed his name on the contract and pressed his fingerprints.

Liu Li took the contract, went out for a while, and then came back in with a bunch of things in her hand, which she handed to Su Ti one by one.

"This is your Level 4 investigator ID. Please keep it safe. With this ID, you can enter and exit most restricted areas, and you can mobilize a certain amount of police force or even riot control forces to assist in the mission."

Suti took the certificate, which was a palm-sized red book with the national emblem of Xia on it and the three-level bureau symbol of a black triangular star in the middle.

Opening the ID, there was a photo of him in his current appearance, and next to it was written the information of the Third Category Affairs Investigation Management Bureau, Nanjiang Provincial Bureau, and a fourth-level investigator.

"I am also a member of the government family now."

Seeing the photos and information inside, Suti felt a sense of security.

Although he had become the number one ancient martial arts force in Nanjiang Province, it was still no match for the state apparatus. Now that he had entered the system, the feeling of having a backer behind him was naturally incomparable.

What's more, he had just entered this secret world and needed someone to lead the way.

At this point, there is no stronger backing or background than the government.

After Su Ti took the certificate, Liu Li handed him a box. It was a metal lead box. Su Ti was very familiar with it. The cursed antiques he usually dealt with were sealed in this kind of lead box by people in the industry in order to prevent the yin energy and magnetic field inside from escaping.

Suti took the lead box and opened it. Inside was a layer of yellow silk cloth and five black metal balls the size of marbles were neatly placed inside.

"This is your allotment of elixir for this month. Today is September 14th. You will be given a fixed allotment every month at this time. But remember, you must return these five metal balls after use. If any are lost, two months' worth of elixir allowance will be deducted for each one. Please do not lose them."

Liu Li warned.

Suti was given two things, and the third thing was an authority manual.

"This permission manual records all your permissions, including the scope of searching for intelligence, mobilizing detectives, etc. You can look it up."

"Also, after joining, we will provide special combat uniforms for each investigator who joins the third-level bureau. The specifications of each combat uniform are linked to the level of the investigator. You are a fourth-level investigator, so we can tailor a fourth-level combat uniform for you. The fourth-level combat uniform is made of silk spit out by a certain domesticated spider monster in the scientific research department of the Zhongjing General Bureau, combined with nanomaterials. It is resistant to high temperatures and corrosion, has strong ductility, and has a certain degree of bulletproof and stab-proof effects. It can also be used with the general armor on the body to slightly amplify the general armor's force field."

"This level 4 combat uniform generally won't get damaged. We can provide you with two sets. You can choose the style and size. They will be sent to you within three days."

Su Ti recalled that when Zhang Haowu fought with him, his armor was broken into pieces, but there was not even a hole in his combat uniform. This suit was indeed very powerful.

After thinking about it, he selected two ordinary black lining combat uniform styles under Liu Li's guidance, and noted his clothing size and gave them to Liu Li.

General-level warriors are relatively free. Except for missions within the province, they can basically move freely at other times.

Therefore, after completing the entry procedures and collecting the required items, Su Ti rejected Liu Li's idea of ​​taking him to visit the provincial bureau. After confirming that he would be notified if there was a mission, he left the provincial bureau, left the Songshan Military Region, and returned to Tianbao Mountain with Ding Yueying driving.

Today, Tianbao Mountain has been designated by Su Ti as the headquarters of the Nansheng Sect. All the masters, skills, resources and other important items of the sect have been transferred to Tianbao Mountain. After returning to the sect headquarters, Su Ti first ate something to replenish his strength, and then immediately began to retreat and recuperate from his injuries after the battle with Zhang Haowu.

After a day and a night of recuperation, Suti's strength and injuries had recovered by a large margin, and he came out of the retreat room.

After leaving the customs, he immediately took the lead box containing the Thousand Miles of Starving Corpses and the lead box containing the five elixirs, and called Ding Yueying to drive him back to Mingguang City.

Today is September 15th, the day when the freshmen’s military training ends and the seniors return to school for the new semester, so he has to go back.

In the speeding sports car, Suti sat in the back seat and took out a pill from the lead box containing the elixir. This was the first time he held it in his hand and looked at it since he got it.

This elixir is made of black metal and is very heavy in the hand. When it comes into contact with the skin, Suti can keenly feel a slight feeling like a subtle electric current, slowly flowing into his body along the skin.

"This elixir does contain a kind of energy, which is the spiritual power that Liu Li mentioned."

"According to her, this spiritual power has incredible benefits for general-level warriors, bloodline warriors, those with hidden bloodlines, warriors who practice extraordinary skills, and even ordinary people."

Su Ti rubbed the elixir in his hand carefully, and he could indeed feel that when the subtle energy like electric current flowed into his body, it seemed that the cells in his body became slightly active.

But, since spiritual power is also a kind of energy, why doesn't the modifier react at all?
Could it be that the energy that the modifier can absorb is limited to the yin energy contained in evil spirits and cursed antiques?
Suti guessed.

However, although this elixir is magical, it seems to have no effect on Suti at the moment.
