So fast?

Jiang Fan was taken aback by Guoan's speed.

I left the base by car at noon, and the acceptance notice came in the evening. I never thought that even civil servants have to work overtime these days.

"But I'm still a junior in college. Will starting this job directly affect my graduation certificate and degree certificate?"

Jiang Fan is currently a junior in college, and he hasn't even completed all his credits in the geology department yet. He can't very well be a specialist at the Ninth Bureau and have his educational background listed as high school.

"Don't worry, you can choose to finish your studies in a major specially recruited by the state, or you can keep your original major. You only need to go back to take the final exam each semester."

Bai Suping's breathing was steady; she had already figured out how to handle the eleventh round.

"That's good. By the way, which part of the National Security Bureau is the Relics Containment Bureau? I didn't hear about it during my training camp. Is it the Ninth Bureau?"

Jiang Fan thought the voice on the other end was quite pleasant, so he decided to ask one more question.

"The Eleventh Bureau is dedicated to guarding suspected relics and imprisoning relics. The Ninth Bureau is the Crisis Response Bureau, mainly responsible for maintaining city stability and eliminating anomalies. It is the place for combat-oriented characters. Your [Appraiser] is more suitable for us here."

Bai Suping explained patiently.

Jiang Fan immediately understood. The eleventh bureau was obviously the department where Li Chengfeng and his companion worked. When the "Fragment of the Holy Lance" was revived, the two of them were processing the armor in the museum.

The eleventh round was clearly not just a reconnaissance sequence, but rather leaned more towards non-frontal battlefield operations.

"Okay, I understand. I will report on time."

He hung up the phone.

I can't believe I became a staff member of the Eleventh Bureau so easily. I can only say that the books I read were really useful.

Jiang Fan didn't know where Lu Xia and Han Yi would be assigned, but he really hoped to stay with people he knew.

Jiang Fan went downstairs to the back gate of the school and bought a bowl of potato noodles. When he came back up, he felt an uncomfortable gaze.

He couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine, and he quickened his pace.

Jiang Fan probably wouldn't have cared before; how could there be ghosts in the world?

But now that he knows the relics have been restored and the sequence has arrived, he has become particularly attentive to some strange occurrences.

This sensitivity to attention increased as he used four [Qi Refining Body] techniques.

Jiang Fan was almost certain that there was something strange going on at Tianhai University.

What exactly happened that so many places in Tianhai City have seen the recovery of relics?

Could it be that the Pale Knight's assessment has connected those previously dormant relics?

After returning to his dormitory, Jiang Fan immediately took out his game console, then pulled out the red cartridge and inserted it.

Only when he saw Rias running through the darkness in the video did he feel at ease.

My own body is still too weak. Is the only way for the game console to cultivate itself to improve its aptitude through [Qi Refining and Body Cultivation]?

According to the task assigned to Rias at the end of the second act, she should be searching for strange phenomena in Tenkai City at this time.

In a residential community on the outer ring road of Tianhai City.

Rias generated fighting spirit from her feet and quickly chased after the strange creature ahead.

By day she is a fencing instructor, and by night she is a knight who hunts monsters.

The people here need help just as much as the people in her hometown, and recently she has felt her inner strength growing stronger, bringing her one step closer to revenge.

A fierce burst of fighting spirit was released from her slender arm. The strange creature, cornered in a dead end, let out a wail and its entire body was twisted by the rapidly spinning vortex, collapsing against the wall like a flattened soda can.

"It's not...a vision of death and plague."

Rias murmured.

She naturally also grasped the mission requirements of the Pale Knight, and even more clearly than Jiang Fan did.

The visions of death and plague are not attached to any particular relic, but to a person who is seriously ill, or a corpse that has only been dead for a few days.

The deathly aura emanating from them will materialize and connect with the calamities brought down by the Pale Knight.

In other words, her process of completing this task is also a manifestation of the Pale Knight's resurrection from mythology.

The shadow of death and plague will hang over the city, with strange diseases and bizarre deaths approaching people silently, just like in the movie "Final Destination" that she had learned about.

Until the city truly became a paradise of death.

But it's okay.

Rias said to herself in her heart.

As long as she kills fast enough, death can't catch up with the people here.

After the strange image on the wall was shattered, it turned into a bizarrely shaped shadow that melted into the darkness.

Rias didn't stop; the blackened cross around her neck instantly locked onto the direction it was fleeing.

The silver-haired knight drew his sword again and leaped several times on the air conditioner unit to reach the rooftop of the building.

And there stood three furtive figures.

"Who is it?...Are you, Lord Silver Fox?"

One of the three, a gaunt man holding a black bell, exclaimed in surprise upon seeing Rias's distinctive blood-red eyes.

"I was wondering who was chasing and killing my little devil all night, it turns out it was you."

The man then pulled out the "Boundless Covenant" badge from his pocket, as did the other two.

Rias still maintains the [Blur] trait, making it impossible for others to know her appearance.

"Have you heard of me?"

Rias pretended to lower her guard, but actually slowly walked closer to the other person.

"Of course, news of your containment of [Rage] sold over three thousand copies in the intelligence zone. I believe that all members of the Convention in Tianhai City know your name."

The gaunt man's smile was sinister, and the way he kept rubbing the bells between his hands made even Jiang Fan, who was watching from outside the screen, feel nauseous.

"Are you from the Xia Kingdom?"

Rias continued to ask, as she had assumed the Boundless Covenant was an international organization.

"Yes, I haven't been a member of the convention for long, but I strongly agree with the organization's philosophy. There should be nothing in the world that binds us, and there should be no rules. We should get what we want."

The man seemed very proud of his current status.

"Your strength is evident to all. At first, Mr. Mori thought that you were just born into Emily's large family and that your strength would not be outstanding. I did not expect that you have been trained to be so excellent."

"Even the [Superior] grade relic that I just acquired is completely helpless in your hands."

After a moment's thought, Rias concluded that Mr. Mori must be the "Whisperer" in the organization, and that the original "Silver Fox" was from a prominent family across the ocean.

"But...why are you still..."

The gaunt man sniffed. He knew very well that this scent could only be found on a virgin. His family had a lineage of ghost-controlling and corpse-handling masters. Although it was a long-outdated profession, it still retained some skills in judging people and their abilities.

How come this "Silver Fox" still smells like a virgin?

The only response to his doubts was a gust of wind, and a silver cross sword rapidly magnified in his lewd pupils.

About three meters is the optimal distance for Spiral Battle Aura Lv.3 to be fully utilized.

The emaciated man's head was twisted into a snail shape, and the other two were also beheaded by Rias with a single sword strike.

Rias held the black bell in her hand and offered it to her god.
