I write obituaries for the gods

"..."

Lin Chen wanders through the history known to the bandits, observing the events he has experienced.

These bandits, who were previously too frightened to move, suddenly changed their attitude and launched an attack; there must be a reason behind it...

Soon, the truth surfaced in memory.

In the white memory, Lin Chen saw the bandit kneel down at the induction ceremony, take a small bottle handed to him by the boss, and drink it all in one gulp.

Inside the bottle, a tiny thing was wriggling.

This seems to be... the power of that demigod?

Lin Chen left the "Mirage City," letting go of the wounded bandit and allowing him to fall to the ground.

"Save those you can, and you can get their statements later. Don't worry about those you can't save," Lin Chen instructed Hao Ge. "Don't worry, attacking me is enough to keep them in jail for a long time. They won't have a good ending."

"Okay...?" Brother Hao didn't know what to say.

"I'll go up first."

After saying that, Lin Chen swung his axe and rushed towards the stairs.

He's going to chase after Wang Defa and that demigod!

......

Chapter 23 The Shadow of the Black Commander (10,000 words daily, please vote!)

After rushing up the stairs, Lin Chen arrived at the second floor of the hotel.

The place seemed to consist of countless private rooms, and bandits were crowding the corridor, waiting for Lin Chen.

They all seemed dazed, yet they all raised their guns when they saw Lin Chen.

It seems this Delta-class is quite troublesome.

Lin Chen's eyes lit up with a deep blue light. With a wave of his hand, all the guns in the hands of the bandits were knocked out and stuck to the ceiling.

"It's my turn."

Adhering to the principle of not wasting bullets, Lin Chen charged forward and began fighting with his super alloy axe.

"Crack!"

"Click-clack!"

He would use the blade of an axe to cut him with a knife, and the back of an axe to strike him with his fist.

The main focus is on clear rewards and punishments.

After a smooth push, Lin Chen stood in front of the private room at the end of the room.

He casually projected a shotgun, blasted open the door lock with one shot, and kicked the door open to go inside.

What comes into view is a huge private room with floor-to-ceiling windows, and a large round table in the center of the room, which is full of delicacies.

Wang Defa was standing at the other end of the round table, and there was another person beside the table, someone Lin Chen never dreamed would appear here—

That's Ms. J.

No...is that Ms. J?

Her eyes shimmered with a faint, ethereal blue. She was wearing an exoskeleton armor, and she looked much stronger.

This armor set...

Lin Chen was very familiar with it!

That's the same model of armor that Qingtian once wore!

Ms. J...became a demigod?

“I’m sorry, our business can only end here,” Wang Defa sighed softly. “Please leave, Ms. J. We have some things to take care of.”

"You don't need me to do anything?" Ms. J frowned.

"No need. The blood debts between gangs must be handled personally by the leaders..."

"Alright, let's talk about it next time."

Ms. J stood up, walked to the window, kicked the glass, shattering it, and the armor shot into the sky in flames—

"boom!"

After she left, Wang Defa chuckled twice, lowered his head slightly, and the brim of his hat covered his face.

“Kid, you’re no ordinary diamond,” Wang Defa said. “You have the skill of a master.”

"Thank you for the compliment," Lin Chen said with a smile.

“But the ‘master’ is just a diamond that was lucky,” Wang Defa said.

"..." Lin Chen's lips twitched slightly twice, and he said:

"Stop the nonsense and get straight to the point."

He took two steps closer and casually twirled the axe.

"Get out of Gute Street and never set foot there again."

"Don't you understand the situation?" Wang De laughed.

The next second, Lin Chen heard a rustling sound coming from above.

He looked up and saw the Delta-level demigod clinging to the ceiling, two plates of armor spread open behind him...

No, that's not armor.

Those are wings!

It's a cockroach's wing!

Black General, that guy's name is Black General!

His armor wasn't leather either; it was...

Lin Chen didn't want to think about it anymore.

With a buzzing sound, the cockroach-like creature swooped down from the ceiling, baring its fangs and claws as it attacked Lin Chen!

Lin Chen suddenly raised his hand and used the super alloy axe to block his claws.

Is this the thing that used larvae to control members of the Stinky Cat Gang?

Lin Chen subconsciously felt like vomiting.

"Heh, you didn't expect that, did you?" Wang Defa chuckled. "The Delta-level demigod, Black Commander... is my personal bodyguard!"

"Yes, he's not much of a figure among the Foundation's demigods, but in your presence, isn't he like a god descending from heaven?"

"Young man, may you be reborn into a better family in your next life," Wang Defa said, lighting a cigar for himself. "At least, don't die like..."

"Oh!"

A whale-like grenade blasted open Black Commander's head, his body swayed a few times, and he fell to his knees.

Lin Chen calmly loaded several dragon breath rounds into the magazine, then fired at the demigod's corpse—

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Only after the cockroaches stopped moving around did Lin Chen put down the shotgun and turn to look at Wang Defa:

"What did you just say?"

"..."

When Brother Hao led his men into the room, Wang Defa was kneeling at Lin Chen's feet, frantically wiping his shoes.

"I was wrong, brother, I was wrong."

Hao Ge stared dumbfounded at Wang Defa: This guy was beaten black and blue, but he still had a fawning smile on his face. He looked extremely pathetic.

Everyone on Good Street knows the name Wang Defa. This guy drives his secondhand Bentley around every day, flirting with young girls on the street with the window down.

Why is he acting like a dog's servant now?

“The problem has been solved,” Lin Chen said, looking at Brother Hao. “He will be kicked out of Good Street, and the restaurant’s operating rights will be back in your hands.”

"Okay...okay!" Brother Hao beamed.

"Give me a good review on the black market," Lin Chen said, "so it'll help me rank up."

"Definitely! No problem!"

Hao Ge immediately gave Lin Chen a good review. Lin Chen opened the webpage and found that his rank had been promoted to "Master".

He nodded in satisfaction, then struck Wang Defa on the head with the back of his axe, knocking him unconscious.

“I’m taking this guy back with me. He has dealings with the foundation. I’ll probably interrogate him and then put him in jail.”

"No problem, you can handle it." Brother Hao nodded.

"Live well, Brother Hao," Lin Chen patted Brother Hao on the shoulder, "You must live well, I'll come to your place for dinner next time."

"okay!"

"..."

Soon, the Second Armed Division took over the scene, and Wang Pan counted the number of casualties.

"So, do I need to write a report?" Lin Chen asked Wang Pan with a smile.

“No need,” Wang Pan said. “These guys are all wanted for murder, most of them are fugitives. It’s really dangerous. What are you doing here all by yourself?”

"Let's rank up," Lin Chen said.

“…?” Wang Pan looked completely bewildered.

"I'm going back now." Lin Chen smiled and waved before getting into the six-seater car.

The car started driving on the street, and as it drove off the street, a huge vehicle that looked like a water truck passed by Lin Chen's car.

"That thing, it's the Azure Recycler..." This was the first time Lin Chen had ever seen it.

He did not absorb the dark blue bubbles left behind by the Black General.

"Didn't you always eat the bubbles before?" Li Zhanyi nudged Lin Chen. "Why aren't you eating them this time?"

"It's not for any other reason," Lin Chen frowned, "it's mainly that thing..."

No, I shouldn't think about it anymore, it's too disgusting.

"I can't get over it psychologically," Lin Chen sighed.

Since they're Delta-level anyway, their abilities aren't strong to begin with, and projecting them onto Lin Chen would make them even weaker, practically useless.

Moreover...

Eating something left behind by a cockroach-man was still too shocking for Lin Chen.

“Speaking of which, I saw Ms. J,” Li Zhanyi said softly. “She can fly, and…”

"Just like Qingtian, right?" Lin Chen nodded.

"Ah."

Li Zhanyi tugged at Lin Chen's sleeve with some unease.

"Could she be... looking for revenge against you?"

“I don’t know,” Lin Chen shook his head. “In short, she and Wang Defa have something to discuss. It can’t be something trivial that would get her involved.”

“Go back to the bureau for a review, and we'll understand.”

......

Chapter 24 The Stalker (First Update)

"Name?"

"Wang Defa..."

"age?"

"Okay, that's not important, let's get straight to the point."

Lin Chen interrupted Li Zhanyi's long starting stance and stared directly at Wang Defa behind the iron bars.
