The First Mist Chapter 43: Dance Hall Incident
1 Building 7, sixth floor.
Xu Shen continued to practice sword-wielding in the room, but while practicing, he was also exercising his control over his spiritual power.
Ever since he learned that the key to reaching the second form is the control of Xu Li, Xu Shen has taken this more seriously. While practicing swordplay, he is also constantly imagining that his "mother's" delicious food is covering his body and flowing through his skin and blood vessels.
He even imagined the delicious food splashing along his palm and onto the Zhanxu Sword.
What surprised Xu Shen was that when he imagined this, the speed of the Zhanxu sword he swung out increased significantly, and it seemed to have become sharper!
"The power of the universe can be extended outside the body..." Xu Shen said to himself. This attempt surprised him a little.
But when he tried to grab something else and extend his power, he found that no matter how he imagined, the "delicacies" in his perception splashed out but did not stick to those substances.
"Is it because there is a Xu Stone in the Zhanxu Sword..."
Xu Shen tested and found out that it was due to the material, only the Xu stone could conduct the Xu force.
In any case, he has mastered the correct way to use the Zhanxu Sword. By infiltrating the power of the sword, he can make the sword edge sharper!
Next, Xu Shen tried more precise control of his force.
As for testing the ability to infiltrate the heart... Xu Shen didn't dare to do it for the time being. After all, it was too dangerous. If he couldn't control it well, his heart would explode and he would commit suicide.
After practicing until he was exhausted, Xu Shen injected himself with a purifying agent.
The warm feeling flowed through his body. In just five days, Xu Shen had already injected the third Qingxu Agent.
He felt that the food accumulated in his body became thicker, swaying in his stomach and intestines, and some of it was able to be shaken out.
"When I reach the feeling of 'full', I should be approaching the limit of the first form..." Xu Shen thought in his mind, wondering if he would have this feeling after injecting the remaining nine Jingxu agents.
It’s still a long time before the bureau’s next ruins-killing mission comes. After all, they just solved a large-scale D-level ruins incident last time. Even if there is a D-level ruins incident in the near future, it will be assigned to other teams.
midnight.
Xu Shen was sleeping when suddenly the communicator on the bedside table rang.
Xu Shen was stunned for a moment, then realized it was the communicator from the Light Chasing Club, and quickly picked it up.
"Consul Yongye, do you remember me? There is an incident in the Ruins that you need to deal with immediately. The association has arranged a vehicle to wait outside the Ruins Secret Bureau where you live."
"Please be there within the hour."
A soft voice came from the communicator.
Xu Shen suddenly woke up from his sleepiness and asked in surprise, "Are you Big Lily?"
"How come you've become a bad person?" Lily was stunned and said unhappily.
Some images appeared in Xu Shen's mind, and he coughed lightly. It turned out that he could see too much after growing eyes...
"Shall we set off now?"
"The sooner the better."
Xu Shen could only get out of bed and dress hurriedly.
On the inside of his bed, leaning against the wall, Maeve rubbed her eyes and woke up, saying, "Where are you going so late?"
Xu Shen was about to answer subconsciously, but he quickly held the words back. After living with Maeve for so long, he almost treated her as a real person.
Maeve yawned. Her petite figure in a thin white dress seemed faint in the night. She floated to Xu Shen's side.
After Xu Shen put on his clothes, he locked the door and Maeve walked through it.
After going downstairs, Xu Shen tightened his clothes and felt a little cold outside. It turned out that money was not that easy to make. It was already one or two o'clock in the middle of the night, right?
After leaving the Secret Bureau, Xu Shen saw a car parked at the end of the street with its lights on.
He hurried over, and someone immediately got out of the driver's seat. He was a young man with short hair and earrings. He looked a bit shabby, but at the moment he was very reserved: "You must be the consul, I, I'll pick you up."
"Who are you?"
"Ah, I'm a small follower in the gang." The young man said hurriedly.
Xu Shen's face looked strange. There was actually someone who called himself that.
"Please come in, Mr. Consul. " The young man quickly opened the car door for Xu Shen.
Xu Shen got in, and Maeve also floated in through the vehicle and sat next to Xu Shen, but her arm was raised when she stretched and easily passed through the roof of the car.
If you are so sleepy, just go back to sleep... Xu Shen inexplicably felt a sense of pity in his heart.
But I soon put this inexplicable feeling aside.
Pity the ruins?
He will be considered a mental patient!
The young man got in the car and started it quickly: "Mr. Consul, shall we go back to the headquarters first?"
"Well, I'm going to get the combat equipment." Xu Shen said.
The young man nodded repeatedly.
Xu Shen asked curiously, "Will you go with me to hunt the ruins later?"
"Ah? No, no, no, I'm only responsible for picking up and dropping off the consul. Lady Lily is already waiting there at the scene of the incident." The young man said hurriedly, his face pale.
Let him solve that kind of monster incident?
What a joke!
He felt suffocated being with this monster who solved monster incidents.
The vehicle drove in the dark, passing through the black light area and heading towards the headquarters.
On the way, Xu Shen went to the young man to inquire and find out more, and found out that the latter was just there to drive him and knew nothing about what happened tonight. Moreover, the other party was not a member of Zhanxu, but just an ordinary person with open eyes.
The other party's usual duty was to be responsible for the security of a casino under the jurisdiction of the Light Chasing Club.
To put it nicely, he is a casino security guard, to put it bluntly, he is a casino thug.
Vehicles were speeding on the road and running red lights. Xu Shen had witnessed the gangster talent of this young man.
"Won't the license plate be revoked like this?" Although Xu Shen is a fog dweller, he has heard this common sense from old fog dwellers.
"Ah? It's okay. I'm here to pick up the consul. I will talk to the Transportation Bureau and they won't revoke my license." The young man said quickly.
Xu Shen was speechless.
Half an hour later, we arrived at the Light Chasing Club headquarters.
Xu Shen took the elevator upstairs, changed into his combat uniform and weapons, as well as his consular badge, and went downstairs.
The young man started the car again, and this time in the city, the speed was obviously slower.
Not long after, the vehicle stopped in front of a dance hall.
There were lights and people everywhere nearby, and there were many pedestrians. It was still a bustling scene, and it was impossible to tell that a beast incident had broken out here.
Xu Shen was a little surprised. After getting off the car, he saw a figure walking towards him.
"I was almost late. Consul, please come earlier next time." Lily said with a chuckle.
Xu Shen smiled bitterly and said, "I came here as soon as possible."
"Yes, the consul lives too far away." Lily smiled, then looked at the dance hall in front of her and said, "We have already investigated. This Xu is a D-level, Kunnian Xu, hidden deep inside. Two people have been killed so far. The incident just broke out."
Xu Shen looked at the place in front of him that was still open as usual, with many people coming in and out: "Then won't the people here be dismissed?"
"lay off?"
Lily laughed: "The Consul is joking. We are different from the Xumi Bureau. Besides, it's just a D-level incident. The fact that the bureau sent the Consul here shows that it's serious enough. If we close the business, the loss tonight will be quite a lot..."
"But if it affects..."
"It all depends on the Consul's ability. It's best to finish it within 10 minutes. If it becomes a protracted battle, this beast might escape into reality, which would have a huge impact."
Lily chuckled and said, "In this case, the Consul's evaluation of the mission is not very optimistic."
Isn't this adding burden to me... Xu Shen was speechless. It turned out that Zhuiguang would pay more attention to interests, so they would give them more generous treatment.
"The ruins-destroying device is in place. Once the Consul locates the ruins, please notify me at any time." Lily shook the communicator in her hand.
"...Aren't you coming with me?"
"I am only here to assist the Consul...remotely."
Xu Shen was speechless. No wonder they said they would fight alone. It seemed like he could only rely on himself.
