"Lin Qiye".
……
Tanxiang City.
TRAIN STATION.
A boy with bloodshot eyes was clutching a backpack, seemingly lost in thought.
His name is Lu Baoyou, and he is the son of Lu Qiu, the temporary commander of Shenlong Pass.
He had always thought his father was a scumbag who abandoned his wife and children, but just as he was prying open the safe to steal money to go to the capital to find his father, he unexpectedly discovered a document that his father was a night watchman.
"Go ahead, the answer you seek is in Shangjing City, and there you will have the opportunity to fulfill our promise."
A devilish whisper rang in Lu Baoyou's ear, audible only to him.
Lu Baoyou knew that this was the voice of the fallen angel Lucifer; he was Lucifer's divine agent.
"If I help you kill that guy named Lin Qiye, you will give me great power, right?"
"That's right. As long as you help me kill Lin Qiye, the agent of the Seraph, you will get everything you want."
"I, Lucifer, the King of Demons, am all-powerful and always keep my word."
Lu Baoyou raised an eyebrow. "Omnipotent? If you're so powerful, why don't you go and kill Lin Qiye yourself?"
“Ahem…” Lucifer’s voice was clearly a little embarrassed. “Well, I have some things to take care of recently, so I can’t come to Great Xia.”
"Besides, wouldn't it be beneath my dignity as the King of Demons to lay a hand on a human?"
"Remember, if you fail to kill Lin Qiye within ten years, I will annihilate you completely. This is the Demon King's punishment for you."
Lucifer's voice gradually faded away...
Lu Baoyou, clutching her backpack, got up and walked towards the train station.
"Lin Qiye..."
……
Shangjing City.
Lin Qiye, dressed in a black trench coat, and An Qingyu, dressed in a white research robe, stood on the rooftop.
"Ah!"
Lin Qiye suddenly sneezed.
"What's going on? With your current physical condition, how could you catch a cold?" An Qingyu asked with a smile.
Lin Qiye raised an eyebrow. "It's also possible that someone is talking badly about me behind my back, like some brute."
Anqingyu distributed its fish species, spreading them out.
Lin Qiye used his ability to control nocturnal creatures to search for Li Zhenzhen's whereabouts throughout the city.
"Where did Tianchen go?" An Qingyu asked, adjusting her glasses.
Lin Qiye laughed and said, "Is that even a question? While we're out working, that kid will definitely take Jialan and the others out for Peking duck."
Roast duck restaurant.
Baili Pangpang's mouth watered as he looked at the fragrant roast duck in front of him.
"I miss it so much. It tastes just like this. The food in our Great Xia is still the most authentic. I ate sushi every day recently and I even lost weight."
Cao Yuan laughed and said, "Hehe, I didn't see that coming."
While eating roast duck, Jialan looked around and asked, "Where are Mangfu and Zhaige?"
While munching on a roast duck, Baili Pangpang said, "Zhuai-ge is outside smoking. Mangfu said he has something very important to take care of and told us not to wait for him, just pack it up and take it back for him."
Garan's eyes were filled with doubt. "Strange, he usually runs faster than anyone else when he hears there's something delicious, but today he actually managed to resist the temptation of roast duck..."
"What could be so important that it would make a foodie hold back like this?"
……
Shangjing City.
Night Watch headquarters.
Special Operations Office.
A young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and looking very refined walked into Zuo Qing's office.
Zuo Qing had just received a notice to attend a meeting, and the room was empty.
After locking the door, the young man dialed a number.
"There lives a child within me, an old child."
"If the world can't understand, confess your love to your shadow."
The call was connected.
"Is it the King's Mask?"
"No."
The young man paused for a moment, then continued to ask.
"Then who are you?"
"I am your father."
Chapter 333 Cthulhu
The young man immediately checked the number he had dialed, and it was indeed Wang Mian's mobile phone number.
But the voice on the other end was clearly not Wang Mian's.
The young man asked warily, "You're not the King's Face, so who are you?!"
"I am your grandfather, Moyu. How come you can't even recognize your grandfather's voice?"
Upon hearing the voice on the phone, Chen Moyu's head felt like it was about to explode.
Because the voice inside was that of his grandfather, Chen Lu!
"No, you're not my grandfather. Who are you? How could you tamper with the Night Watch's internal communication signals?" Chen Moyu questioned coldly.
"Heh, you reacted pretty quickly. No wonder you're the secretary to Deputy Commander Zuo. Come to the underground training ground, and I'll show you who I am."
"Of course, you can also choose to run away, provided that you are confident you can escape the White Impermanence's methods."
Chen Moyu's face was gloomy.
The White Impermanence, who enters dreams and steals souls, is the king of this capital city.
No one can escape his dreams.
Now that the mysterious person making the call knows his true identity and intentions, it means that he has no way out.
Even if he is the grandson of Chen Lu, a high-ranking member of the Night Watch, he cannot leave this Night Watch building.
However, as a descendant of the Chen family, possessing noble blood, he wanted to die knowing why.
Chen Moyu adjusted his glasses and walked towards the Night Watchers' underground training grounds.
……
Underground training ground.
"Alright, Jiang Er, your mission is complete. You can go back now." Gu Tianchen smiled at Jiang Er.
"Brother Tianchen, are you sure you don't want to tell Qingyu and Qiye about this?" Jiang Er asked with a worried expression.
"This matter involves too many causes and effects, and I don't want to involve you all. Don't worry, since Commander Ye has agreed to it, there won't be any problems."
"Go back and tell Fatty not to steal my roast duck," Gu Tianchen said with a smile.
Jiang Er nodded. "Then be careful. I'm leaving."
After speaking, Jiang Er's illusory figure slowly dissipated from the air.
Gu Tianchen summoned the Fiery Dragon Halberd with a flick of his hand and said with a smile, "Masked, you owe me a huge favor."
"I'll take the blame for you this time!"
"Identification successful!"
The door opened, and Chen Moyu, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, slowly walked in.
The moment he saw Gu Tianchen, he froze on the spot.
"It's you?!"
As the secretary of the Special Operations Division, Chen Moyu was naturally well aware of Gu Tianchen's identity.
"Alright, stop pretending. Your disguise has been exposed for a long time. Shall we talk before we fight, or fight before we talk?" Gu Tianchen asked, carrying his halberd.
Chen Moyu walked to the training ground and asked seriously, "How did you know I was going to call the Masked Squad and tamper with the communication signal beforehand?"
“Not only do I know you’ll trick the Masked Squad into going to the fishing village, but as a member of the Chen family, you can also hear those guys’ voices.”
"Claimed to be the end of the universe, the origin of all the bizarre and mysterious, a supreme being that transcends the laws of nature!"
"Their name is Cthulhu, right?" Gu Tianchen asked with a smile.
Even the usually shrewd Chen Moyu looked at Gu Tianchen with a shocked expression.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! How could you know about these supreme beings?!"
"Supreme my ass! Tell Azathoth I'll chop him up sooner or later!" Gu Tianchen shouted, pointing at Chen Moyu.
Chen Moyu was completely confused. "Asatos...who is that?"
Gu Tianchen was speechless.
"Good grief, you keep saying you're Cthulhu's most loyal followers, but you don't even know the name of your big boss?"
"Forget it, you little Karami can't reach that level anyway."
“Deputy Commander Zuo has already led men to arrest your grandfather Chen Lu. As for you, I am here as the temporary executive officer of the Special Operations Division to secretly execute you.”
