Godslayer: Jiahao Gets Stronger? Starting with a Big Chicken with Sauce

There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone before Ye Fan's voice came through.

"Captain Chen, did you see that streak in the sky above Cangnan?"

"I saw it."

"The initial assessment from the Energy Monitoring Department is that it's 'far exceeding the power level of a god.' Captain Chen, tell me, what's going on in Cangnan? Could it be that Lin Qiye has completely mastered Michael's power?"

Chen Muye had expected this call, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

From the moment that golden blade of light shot into the sky in the old town until now, it has only been a little over half an hour.

"Commander Ye, this matter concerns a newly recruited temporary member of our 136th Squad."

"Hmm? A new temporary team member?"

"His name is Wang Jia'ao, he is seventeen years old, and a senior high school student at Cangnan No. 2 Middle School. Tonight, he struck a blow against Ghost Face King."

Chen Muye paused for a moment: "With one strike, the Ghost-Faced King was instantly annihilated, leaving no trace of his body."

As for that mark in the sky...

It was that one slash that created it.

The breathing on the other end of the phone paused for a moment.

Ye Fan did not respond immediately, his fingers interlaced on the table, clearly somewhat surprised.

"Go on."

Ye Fan's voice remained steady. If he hadn't been very familiar with Chen Muye, he probably would have thought the other party was joking with him.

"Wang Jia'ao's mental strength is currently only at the Zhan Realm, but according to him, that strike consumed half of his life force. In other words, he was able to deliver that blow while his life force was significantly reduced."

"Half of the life force?" Ye Fan repeated in a low voice.

"Yes.

And more importantly…

Chen Muyi emphasized, "Commander-in-Chief, based on our on-site observation and analysis, the source of his strike was not any of the existing forbidden ruins."

"You said it has never appeared in the Forbidden Ruins sequence."

"Yes."

"So, what he awakened was a new forbidden realm?"

"At present, yes."

Ye Fan tapped his fingers lightly twice on the table.

"Captain Chen, are you sure that he traded his life force for that strike?"

"He said it himself, but I think it's quite credible. After all, such power, if left unchecked, would be a terrifying thing," Chen Muye replied truthfully.

What do you think of his potential?

Chen Muyi carefully considered his words, "This person's future value to the Night Watch and even to the Great Xia is immeasurable, but his personality is completely different from that of ordinary people."

There was silence for a few seconds on the other end of the phone.

"I understand," Ye Fan said. "I'll come in person."

Chen Muyi was taken aback for a moment: "Commander Ye, you mean...?"

"I'm coming to Cangnan City to see him in person. I'll also take this opportunity to assess his new forbidden ruins. Since they've never appeared before, they need an official designation."

"Okay, I got it. When will you arrive?"

"Tomorrow."

"clear."

"Captain Chen, are you sure he's only at the Zhan Realm?" Ye Fan couldn't help but ask curiously.

"He is definitely at the Zhan Realm, but his physical abilities far surpass those of ordinary people. I have fought with him before, and he used his bare-handed strength to knock me back twenty meters," Chen Muye answered truthfully.

"I see."

Then the call ended.

Chen Muyi stood there, holding his phone, listening to the busy tone coming from the receiver, and only after a while did he slowly exhale a breath of stale air.

Ye Fan wanted to come in person.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Night's Watch actually made a special trip to Cangnan for a seventeen-year-old high school student.

It seems that the impact of Wang Jia'ao's strike was indeed too shocking.

After all, the assessment by the monitoring department far surpasses the power of the gods, so it is not surprising that the Commander-in-Chief of the Night's Watch would personally make the trip.

Chen Muyi put his phone in his pocket, opened the door to the storage room, and walked back to the conference room.

The moment he pushed open the door, he heard Wang Jia'ao arguing with Hong Ying.

"So, Sister Hongying, think about it. With this one strike, Ghost Face King is gone, and the sky has opened up. Although Uncle Zhao's Star Blade is broken, it is equivalent to doing a great thing. It used its brokenness to facilitate the birth of a legend. What is that called?"

This is called sacrificing oneself for righteousness; this is called honorable even in ruin!

Zhao Kongcheng, listening nearby, had veins throbbing on his forehead: "You fucking say again that my knife shattered gloriously?!"

"Uncle Zhao, look at you, you're getting anxious again."

Wang Jia'ao leaned back on the sofa. "The knife is broken, it won't grow back even if you hit me."

"How about thinking about it from another angle? You, Zhao Kongcheng, can go out and tell people, 'You know what? The Star Blade I, Zhao Kongcheng, wielded back then carried the legend of slaying a slain general in the Chuan region with a single strike.' Wouldn't that be incredibly prestigious?"

"You fucking..."

Hongying laughed so hard she slumped onto the sofa armrest, her shoulders swaying.

Wen Qimo held his teacup and drank silently, trying to suppress the urge to smile.

Lin Qiye sat in the chair next to him, clearly having grown accustomed to Wang Jia'ao's way of speaking.

Chen Muyi stood at the door for a few seconds, then walked back to his seat amidst the laughter and jeers filling the room.

He stood at the end of the long table, his hands resting on the edge, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.

"I have something to tell you."

The noise in the conference room gradually subsided.

All eyes were on him.

"I just received a call," Chen Muye said calmly, "Ye Fan, the commander-in-chief of the Night Watch, will be coming to Cangnan in person tomorrow."

The rest of the 136th squad were clearly surprised.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Night's Watch, the pinnacle of humanity, actually came to a small place like Cangnan in person?

"Because of that stab?" Hongying asked.

"That's right."

Chen Muyi nodded, his gaze shifting to the boy in the center of the sofa who was still sucking on a lollipop: "It's because of that stab."

All eyes turned to Wang Jia'ao.

Wang Jia'ao pulled the lollipop out of his mouth, looked at Chen Muye, then at the surrounding gazes, and blinked.

"The Commander-in-Chief is coming to see me?"

"Yes," Chen Muye said. "He wants to personally evaluate your new Forbidden Ruins."

Wang Jia'ao leaned back in his sofa chair, his arms crossed behind his head, his right foot casually dangling, and then a bright smile curved his lips:

"Commander-in-Chief, is that right?"

"Alright."

"Since he's so sincere, I'll reluctantly agree to meet him."

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for accumulating over 5000 Jiahao Points and obtaining the skill 'Hero in the Rain'.]

[The Hero in the Rain is an ability originating from a parallel world; as long as the host is in the rain, their power increases by 10%.]

Upon seeing this, Wang Jia'ao was first stunned, then overjoyed.

What the hell!

Lao Tong, you're really amazing!

Just then, Wang Jia'ao felt that he had too few abilities.

The seven-day trial card for top students in the newbie gift pack has expired.

Only the Ancient Holy Body and the Iron Fist of Justice remain.

The Heaven and Earth One Slash can only be used twice now.

The arrival of these heroes in the rain is like sending charcoal in snowy weather.

Moreover, a 10% increase in strength is truly extravagant.

Hongying didn't notice Wang Jia'ao's abnormality either; her lips were just twitching.

"You call the Commander-in-Chief personally coming to see you 'reluctantly'?"

"yes."

Wang Jia'ao snapped out of his daze and nodded confidently, "Otherwise what? Should I welcome you with gongs and drums?"

That's so unreserved.

I've always been a low-key person. Even if you're the commander-in-chief, you'd have to see if I'm available before you can see me.

Chen Muye, unusually, did not respond.

Chen Muye understood the weight of Ye Fan's word "personally" better than anyone else present.

"Wang Jia'ao." Chen Muye's tone carried a rare hint of seriousness.

"Um?"

"The Commander-in-Chief has come to see you to assign you a serial number to your new Forbidden Ruins."

"Oh, that's great. After the evaluation, I can tell people how high my forbidden zone number is."

Wang Jia'ao smiled slightly, "That does sound much more professional than what I'm saying now."

"What are you saying now?" Chen Muye was taken aback.

"Tell people that what I awakened was the will of the strong."

"The will of a hero?"

"yes."

Wang Jia'ao nodded.

"Look at me, I exude a unique aura, what do you call that?"

That's called soaring ambition.

Therefore, the name of my Forbidden Ruins should be "The Will of Heroes".

Simple and clear, getting straight to the point.

Forget it, your level of extravagance is too low; you'll never understand my current level of extravagance.

[Jiahao Value +35]

[Current Jiahao Value: 4171]

Chen Muyi almost lost his composure.

"When the Commander-in-Chief arrives tomorrow, you'd better behave yourself."

I will try my best.

"Not as much as possible, but definitely."

"team leader."

Wang Jia'ao sat up straight. "As a seventeen-year-old high school student, facing the Commander-in-Chief of the Great Xia Night Watch, don't you think I should show the vigor and ambition that the younger generation should have?"

Chen Muyi's eye twitched: "You call what you just did 'full of vigor'?"

"Of course."

Wang Jia'ao leaned back into the sofa. "Youthfulness means that no matter who's standing opposite me, I won't back down."

"Vibrant" means that no matter how big the scene, I can make it my home ground.

See, it matches up now, doesn't it?

No one responded.

Because nobody knows how to respond to that kind of talk.

Hongying and the others almost couldn't hold back.

Those who can hold their breath can be diagnosed as being in a vegetative state.
