Gatekeeper of all realms

Chapter 615: Space-Time Knife

Chapter 615: Space-Time Knife
"morning."

the next morning.

Jiu, who ended his confinement early, entered the office and greeted everyone.

"morning!"

Everyone said in unison.

Jiu was surprised, but saw that everyone had a smile on their face and was greeting him enthusiastically.

That little flower is not here.

I don’t know where he went.

"Jiu, follow me."

The immediate superior, Qinglang, waved enthusiastically.

Jiu followed him through the common area and into the private office inside.

I saw that the department leader Xingcan was already waiting here.

"What happened yesterday has been investigated. It has nothing to do with you."

After the greetings, Xingcan said with a smile.

His attitude was also very friendly, even with a hint of subtle flattery.

"Yes, we all think you are an excellent employee."

Qinglang also followed up with a sentence.

Jiu Wei was surprised, but her face remained expressionless, and she said:

“I just did my part.”

"I heard that you fought with a saint yesterday?" Xingcan asked casually.

So that’s it!
Jiu reacted immediately.

After fighting with the saint yesterday, the saint was in a hurry to get things done and casually said, "It's not her - this boxing method is almost touching the edge of the law."

The law of contact.

It is the first step to sanctification.

In other words, the saint admits that his strength has reached a level close to that of a saint.

This surpasses countless professionals in all realms.

"Yes, they fought, but the saint was just testing me. He only touched me for a moment and then left."

Jiu said truthfully.

Xingcan and Qinglang smiled at the same time, leaned back slightly, and exchanged glances quickly.

"Several departments are asking you."

"They all want to transfer you there."

"We are also reluctant to let you go, so we ask your intention in advance."

"What if I want to change departments?" Jiu asked curiously.

"Of course we are reluctant to let you go. We really hope that a capable and outstanding newcomer like you will stay with us." Xingcan said sincerely.

"But if you really have a better choice, we can only sincerely wish you the best. We hope we can still be friends in the future and keep in touch often." Qinglang also said.

"..."Jiu.

You two are not human.

How can one speak so skillfully and fluently like a veteran in the workplace?
The workplace is really a test for you.

Now it seems that non-humans are also well trained.

"I don't mind. As long as I have a reasonable salary, stable job and not too much overtime, I don't plan to change departments."

Jiu expressed his attitude.

You still have to continue attending classes.

——Before becoming a saint, this innocent identity is extremely necessary.

Instead of changing to a new environment, getting familiar with it again, and finding a new position, it is better to stay here.

"Okay, don't worry, we can definitely meet these requirements."

Qinglang continued.

“Then I will help you turn down all invitations from other departments - I promise that you will be very comfortable working in the Ether Affairs Department.” Xingcan immediately followed up.

"Then I'll trouble you two leaders." Jiu said with a smile.

"I'll take you to your workstation and tell you about today's work content." Qinglang stood up and said.

"Okay." Jiu also stood up.

Xingcan had already gone out and waved to Jiu: "Focus on your work, I'll take care of the things outside."

After saying that, he walked away quickly.

——The purpose of this conversation is very clear, which is to keep Jiu.

The purpose is achieved.

Now he has to turn down other departments.

Jiu followed Qinglang back to his workstation.

I saw a to-do list on my desk.

"Supervise C and D-level warehouses and arrange personnel to patrol the warehouses."

Just one sentence.

Jiu couldn't help but laugh.

After this warehouse accident, the saints will definitely make every effort to check and arrange the warehouse to ensure that everything is normal.

In everyone's opinion.

There should be nothing happening in the warehouse for a long time to come.

And my job is to arrange other people's work.

People who arrange things for others to do have the most free time.

If there are any merits, they are yours; if there are any mistakes, you can push the blame on the people below you.

This is a leadership job!

"Thank you and the boss for your care."

Jiu expressed his gratitude.

Seeing that she was satisfied, Qinglang breathed a sigh of relief and took out a card and said:

"This is your position. Oh, and this is your official employee card. All permissions have been activated, and you have received an advance on your salary."

Jiu took the card and asked casually, "Why don't you see Xiaohua?"

Qinglang's expression froze, and he said, "I don't know either. It seems like he is being questioned by the top management. I don't know what the situation is."

"——Just focus on your work. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions."

"Okay, thank you, boss." Jiu continued.

Qinglang nodded to Jiu and left.

Jiu sat in his office, deep in thought.

The death of the killer yesterday might have involved Xiaohua.

The whole thing is related to saints.

——I just have the hope of becoming a saint, but there is a saint standing behind Xiaohua.

So Qinglang was unwilling to say anything more.

Totally understand.

Jiu put the card away, stood up and left the office, all the way to the teleportation room at the end of the corridor.

"Go to the D-class warehouse."

She waved the card in her hand.

The staff in charge of teleportation immediately opened the teleportation array, set the floor, and began to activate the teleportation technique.

A flash.

Jiu arrived at the door of the D-level warehouse.

The professional gatekeeper was well-informed and already knew that she was the new person in charge.

"Come in! Call me if you need anything."

Jiu looked at the man and recognized him as the professional who was guarding the gate yesterday.

"Why is it still you?"

"It will be time to get off work in a little while."

"Okay, I have something to ask you."

"Please speak."

"Is it difficult to touch the edge of the law?" Jiu asked curiously.

"You may come from the world of the Splitting Bee Clan and are relatively isolated, so you don't know--" The man stopped talking at the right time and observed her expression carefully.

"It's okay to say it. Although we, the Split Bee Clan, are backward, we are never self-righteous." Jiu said frankly.

"Well - you have to know that if a professional can comprehend the laws, it is basically equivalent to being connected with a saint. Sooner or later, he can sign some kind of contract with the saint and become a local figure."

Jiu couldn't help but nodded.

Yes.

When I understood the "revolving lantern", the Sage of Time came and put forward conditions.

But I don't agree.

"It's complicated, but you should take a look at this."

The professional looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he stealthily took out a newspaper and handed it to Jiu.

Jiu took it and took a look.

I saw my beautiful face on the cover, with a line of big words written next to it:
"The most beautiful goddess who is closest to the law!"

"——The saint himself admitted that a single punch created a bright future!"

Jiu was speechless for a while.

There were many detailed analyses in the newspaper, but what caught Jiu's attention the most was the last paragraph:

"There have been a lot of saints who have died recently, but the news has been strictly blocked and no one knows what happened."

"But if the law she touched, there are no saints guarding it."

"——Maybe she can become the new saint!"

Tsk.

No wonder everyone’s attitudes are somewhat different.

Holy man.

It is relatively weak in front of the monsters on the other side, but it is invincible in all the worlds.

I fought so hard with the Saint of Time, but I still couldn't defeat him.

Must become holy quickly!
"Thanks. How much is the newspaper? I'll pay you."

Jiu patted the professional on the shoulder and asked.

The professional looked flattered. He turned his head to look at her hand, then looked at his shoulder, and his face suddenly turned red.

"You... have already paid."

He stammered.

Jiu was stunned.

——Are all men so stupid when they talk?

so awkward!
wrong--

Why do I have to think like a woman?

……stop.

Don't think about it anymore.

——I should find some time to become a man again.

"Thank you."

Jiu withdrew his hand, walked to the door of the warehouse, and shook the card in his hand.

Rumbling--

The warehouse door slowly opened.

As soon as she walked in, she heard that voice:
"You came."

It is that Rahu finger.

"Yeah, I'm here." Jiu responded.

She walked casually among the rows of seals with her hands behind her back, looking like she was completing a normal inspection.

"You shouldn't have come." Luohou transmitted the message through his fingers.

"But I still came." Jiu said.

"you--"

"Stop! I now have an official identity and can come here to patrol; and you are just a sealed finger, neither of us will be suspected." Jiu explained.

The other party's tone suddenly slowed down:
"I followed your advice and put my power on something else, making it the cause of what happened."

—A bit smug?
"That's great. So, what are your plans next?" Jiu asked.

"I plan to summon other parts of my body in the next few days. When they pass through the ether and arrive here, my strength will increase greatly, and I will have no problem dealing with a group of saints."

Pointing finger.

"Will it work? Ether is not that easy to penetrate." Jiu asked worriedly.

"Although the ether blocks the information, there is a mysterious connection between the parts of my body. They should be able to find this place..." said the finger.

"From your tone, it doesn't seem to be easy." Jiu said worriedly again.

"——As long as it passes through the ether, I should be able to sense it." said the finger.

Both sides fell into silence.

"What are you worried about? Why are you trying to trick me in this tone?" asked the finger.

"I'm really worried about you." Jiu said worriedly.

"Bullshit." said the finger.

"Don't get excited—we're in the same boat now!"

"roll!"

"I asked you to stay here!"

This statement cannot be refuted.

The fingers did accept Jiu's guidance.

"Hmph... what are you? You don't look like an insect, nor do you look like the real mother of curses, but if you say you are a human - your soul doesn't look like a woman's - are you a man? But you have some other characteristics, such as... a duck?"

Finger's tone became increasingly doubtful.

Jiu sneered:
"Are you so interested in my background?"

She had now walked to the seal on her finger, holding an inspection machine and pointing it at the seal.

If she felt something was wrong with her finger and moved upwards -

The finger is doomed.

"Calm down, I don't mean to find out your background, I'm just a little curious." said the finger.

"You ate a saint yesterday." Jiu said.

"Yes, his remains have been found, and I guess they're now searching everywhere for the murderer." Finger's tone became smug again.

Jiu was operating the machine, but his mind was constantly working.

Do you want to——

Just melt this finger?
Theoretically, using "Mandala Ouroboros" means that you can "absorb the elements of the target, or directly use the target and transform it into the elements you need..."

But consider that it is conscious.

How can we destroy its consciousness?
After all, it is still summoning other body parts.

If we let it continue to grow stronger, the next curse won't scare it.

After receiving the tens of thousands of years of battle scenes transmitted by the curse, he had completely understood one thing -

There is no reason in front of such a monster.

No matter how good the relationship is.

Once I want to eat you, I will eat you directly.

Their history is one of endless fighting and killing.

Only strength is the truth!

"How about we discuss something?" He transmitted the message through his fingers.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Jiu asked absentmindedly.

"The way you entered here is different from mine, so if you want to become stronger with your current body, you can only become a saint first, right?" said the finger.

Jiu came back to his senses.

——The other party seemed to regard itself as one of its kind.

Also.

How could a curse recognize a human as its mother?

Now the other party has no idea of his true identity, which only further proves this point.

Sanctification...

And listen to what it has to say.

"So what?"

Jiu asked.

"I can load new pheromones for you to help you master the method of becoming a saint as quickly as possible," said the finger.

Jiu paused for a moment, then reacted immediately.

——This is a test!
If you have never obtained pheromones, you will definitely negotiate conditions at this time.

Once the conditions were discussed, one's true identity was exposed.

The fingers will confirm that they are not from the other side.

Because as a "Mother of Curses", she should have possessed this ability a long time ago!

After all, that "curse" can transmit pheromones to oneself!

and so--

Thanks to that curse.

I already have the corresponding pheromones.

Even blended it myself!
——A temporary sequence was born.

Jiu couldn't help but be extremely alert and looked at his fingers with some admiration.

In a word.

I just wanted to find out my origins.

It also really wants to know what it is so that it can better choose a strategy to deal with itself.

——Eat, or be eaten, or even cooperate temporarily and eat later.

Anyway-

Both of us intend to find out the other side's strength first!

The corners of Jiu's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a charming smile.

"Pheromones are all you have? How low-class."

She said disdainfully.

——Since the other party is testing me, why can't I test it in return?

The storm has risen.

Now it depends on who can catch whom!
"Do you have combat pheromones from past eras?" Fingers asked, still playing dumb.

"You underestimate me - I am beginning to regret cooperating with an inferior being like you. I even lost myself by keeping you here." Jiu turned the machine in his hand.

This machine can be operated automatically or manually to mark items.

"What are you doing?" The fingers tensed.

"Nothing - let's go our separate ways from now on. Goodbye."

Jiu turned and left.

"Wait a minute, you don't want the inherited pheromones? Then what do you want? Do you already have that?" asked the finger.

It's still fishing!

It wants to know where it is now!

Jiu was considering how to respond when he suddenly saw lines of dim words quietly appearing:

"The sequence of gradual sanctification is activated."

“It all started.”

"Drive the rotten law of fate and activate the two pheromones dormant on the other side. Before they become hostile again, I will give you a second mission:"

"Buried in the ether."

"Description: You know it's calling for the other body parts, so go ahead, into the unfathomable ether, you know what you want to do."

"Time limit: thirty minutes (counting backwards)."

"If the mission is successful, you will gain one third of the power of a saint."

Jiu was silent.

The second mission was released.

Regarding the time limit, it is a little unclear, but one thing is very certain.

——We need to destroy the other body parts of this Rahu’s Finger.

In other words.

The two sides are about to completely fall out.

So--

"I do have that." Jiu said in a teasing tone.

"Which one is that?" asked the finger.

"Aren't you trying to trick me? You don't even know, so how should I know?" Jiu said indifferently.

A knife suddenly appeared at her waist, but it seemed to disappear again.

Killing intent emanated from her.

"I advise you not to treat others as fools."

Jiu finished speaking and walked out of the warehouse step by step.

"besides."

"I do have a sequence - isn't that what you wanted to ask?"

"As humble as you are, you have no other means or abilities except to trick me. Goodbye."

She made it clear directly!

Rumbling--

The warehouse door opens.

"slow."

The sound of fingers rang out again.

This time.

There was finally some seriousness in its voice:
"I was wrong just now, but this matter is of great importance. I know that what happened just now makes you unhappy, but I must make sure that you are an expert in this matter."

Jiu continued walking outside without stopping.

First find a way to kill the body part floating in the ether, then when the mission is successful and your strength is increased, come back and kill this finger.

Ok, deal.

"Wait a minute—"

Fingers noticed her firm attitude. Although he didn't know why she was so firm, he still panicked:

"No matter what you want to do, only by cooperating with me can you go further!"

"—I left a present in your dorm."

"We'll talk about it after you finish watching it!"

Jiu raised his eyebrows.

really.

This guy still has some means.

It had prepared everything before testing me.

Jiu didn't reply.

She simply walked out of the warehouse door and let the guard slowly close it.

dorm room.

Tsk.

The finger has been in front of him and has been sealed.

How does it do it?
A few minutes later.

Jiu hurried back to the dormitory and found a simple compass in his room.

This is the kind of compass commonly used by ships sailing in the Middle Ages.

but.

What kind of gift is this?
Lines of dim words quietly emerged:

"Sequence compass."

"A disposable prop."

"Only beings with the sequence can use it."

"Only by using it can you know its greatness."

Jiu's expression suddenly changed.

wrong!

That finger had been testing itself from the beginning, but it had no idea whether it had a sequence or not.

I didn't tell it until the end.

How did it put the compass here in advance?

If you don’t have a sequence—

Isn't this gift given in vain?

If there is no sequence -

How could it be willing to give away a prop called "great"?

Maybe……

It gave out this item only after it knew it had the sequence.

But the best explanation for this prop appearing in advance is——

It will use the law of time.

Turn back time.

It confirmed that it owned the sequence, then went back to the past, put the things away, and then came back to tell itself that there was a gift.

Time goes back!!!

Jiu suddenly looked up and looked at the task that was emitting a faint glow in the void.

"Buried in the ether."

"..."

"Time limit: thirty minutes (counting backwards)."

I understand this time.

The task was just released at 4:50 pm.

Regression class count.

This means going back thirty minutes and finishing between 4:20 and 4:50!
But time has passed!
"Time and space flow backwards..."

Jiu said softly.

She involuntarily tightened her grip on the long knife at her waist.

——This knife will cut through time and space, go back to the past thirty minutes, search for the other parts of the finger in the ether, and then kill it.

in other words--

The mission has been determined, and in the past thirty minutes, the other parts of the finger have descended into the ether!

But what did my fingers tell me?
"I plan to summon the rest of the body in the coming days..."

These are the original words of Rahu’s finger.

It hid the truth of the matter and didn't tell itself.

If I don't go back to the past and cut that knife -

Perhaps it will soon be able to merge with other parts of the body, become instantly stronger, and change the entire situation.

No!

Jiu lowered his head slightly, looked at the long sword at his waist, and said to himself:
"The first time was to jump across space to kill someone, and the second time was to jump across time..."

“It’s harder this time.”

"...We must not alarm the Saint of Time."

This is more powerful than the jumping knife I imagined!

interesting.

The direction guided by the sequence allows one to push one's skills to the extreme and reach an incredible realm.

How not to try?

Jiu took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and gripped the hilt of the knife tightly.

Take a breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

She suddenly drew out her long knife.

All of a sudden.
