Chapter 487: The Reputation is That Bad
Chapter 487: The Reputation is That Bad
"Don't take this lightly, he's not your average purifier."
Just a glance at the expressions of the two purifiers was enough for the Scorpion Director to understand that his subordinates hadn't taken his instructions to heart. He couldn't help but want to share the absurd resume of a certain individual, warning them to be extremely cautious.
However, after some consideration, the Scorpion Director ultimately decided to keep quiet.
The reason was simple; there wasn't much he could reveal.
According to the Purification Bureau's confidentiality regulations, information about anomalies, related target intelligence, and mission records were classified into five levels of confidentiality, from top to bottom.
Level 3, 2, and 1 purifiers had the qualifications to access level 1, 2, and 3 intelligence, respectively. The directors of the Zodiac and Non-Zodiac District Bureaus could access level 4 confidential information, while the Twelve Directors had access to level 5 intelligence.
The two purifiers he had chosen to keep an eye on Lyon and prevent him from causing trouble were both level 2 purifiers, so they only had level 2 access privileges.
Lyon's task records over the past few months consisted of a few level 1 records and, aside from those, the lowest-classified records involved the elimination of the Scales of Gold Sect's Holy Spirits. Files related to Holy Spirits were already classified as level 3.
The remaining records included exposing the Aquarius Director, eliminating the Goddess of Wealth, descending into the Soul Descent Abyss with the Nightmare King, consuming the Guardian Death Dog, and discovering a mysterious organization targeting various royal families... All mission files involving True Deities were classified as level 4 and above, and these missions wouldn't even be counted as action records.
In the eyes of the Scorpion Director, who had access to all the files, Lyon was someone who, within three months of joining the Purification Bureau, started taking on high-risk missions, employing extremely radical methods, and causing a stir every time."
For the two purifiers, who didn't have sufficient clearance, Lyon appeared to be a novice with an empty record. In the three months since joining the Purification Bureau, he had only undertaken a few ordinary missions, with the only notable exceptions being two "level 3" records that they couldn't access.
For these two experienced level 2 purifiers, with nearly 180 total mission records, including several level 3 missions, to see a newcomer with just 11 missions who seemed to have gotten lucky with two high-difficulty missions was unbelievable.
"I'll explain it to you this way."
Considering that these two were fixated on Lyon, it was uncertain if they could even stop him. If they were careless, there would surely be trouble. After some hesitation, the Scorpion Director chose to violate the confidentiality regulations of the headquarters, indirectly reminding them:
"Lyon's total mission count isn't the five times listed in his file; it's actually eleven. He's not your average person."
Eleven total missions? The two purifiers were momentarily stunned after hearing the Scorpion Director's words, then exchanged puzzled glances.
What's the big deal about eleven missions? Our combined mission count is over 180, and we've even participated in five or six level 3 missions. Eleven missions are nothing...
Wait, if he has eleven missions but only five are recorded in his file, then...
"The situation is exactly as you suspect."
The two purifiers stared at the Scorpion Director in shock, their faces filled with disbelief.
"I can't go into specifics, but a while ago when I suddenly left, it was to support the Virgin Bureau's jurisdiction. During that joint operation, he was the one who received me, and we even... well, fought side by side."
"......"
Fighting side by side with the Bureau Director...
And after completing eleven missions, only five were recorded...
Doesn't that mean that in just over three months since joining the Purification Bureau, Lyon has already participated in six 'True Deity-level' missions? And he survived them all?
Fck... Are the newcomers nowadays this monstrous?
"In any case, you must keep a close eye on him."
After recalling the devastation in the Dream World and the insane record of a certain someone devouring the Dog God, the Scorpio Director's heart trembled as she once again earnestly instructed them:
"Lyon is indeed exceptionally capable, but his temperament is truly extreme and radical. When pushed to the brink, he's capable of anything. So, you must watch him closely, and the moment you detect any signs of him going berserk, immediately find a way to contact me!"
Isn't this... a bit outrageous?
Hearing the Scorpio Director's repeated warnings, the spines of the two Level 2 Purifiers chilled.
It was common knowledge that the degree of madness among Purifiers was generally proportional to their individual strength. The faster their strength increased, the more likely they were to lose control and become insane.
And that newcomer... That big shot had only been a Purifier for three months and had already participated in six True Deity-level missions. With such a rapid rise in Lyon value, his level of madness was bound to be astonishing, and there might not be much humanity left in him.
Moreover, his file clearly stated that he had an extremely high affinity with demon-like anomalies. Judging by this, he was not only not a good person, but it was even questionable whether he could be considered human!
"Director..."
The middle-aged Purifier swallowed, his expression became anxious as he asked:
"What's the temperament of that Lyon...? Is he easy to get along with? If we try to stop him, will he attack us?"
"Look at you, so scared."
Before the Scorpio Director could respond, the elderly Purifier standing beside him, carrying a fishing rod, took a deep breath. Suppressing the unease in his heart, he tried to lighten the atmosphere with a joke:
"No matter how radical he is, he's still a Purifier. If he wants to fight, then let him fight. At most, he'll beat us up. It's not like he can eat us, right, Director?"
"..."
Hearing the elderly Purifier's joke, and considering Lyon's reputation as a 'God-Eater Demon Man', the Scorpio Director couldn't help but ponder this line of thought.
If he were human, Lyon probably wouldn't eat them. But if he were pushed to the brink, would he really do something extreme? It's hard to say...
???
Director?
You're not saying anything... Why does my heart feel so anxious?
Facing their inquiry, the Scorpio Director's deafening silence caused the elderly Purifier's smile to freeze.
I asked if he would eat us, it was just a joke! Why are you so quiet? Say something to refute me!
"Oh, don't worry about that."
Seeing the two Purifiers turn pale, the Scorpio Director quickly reassured them:
"Based on my understanding of him, he probably wouldn't do such a thing."
"..."
Isn't this... a bit outrageous? 'Probably' doesn't mean he definitely won't!
Director, the way you're using 'probably'... Does that mean if Lyon loses control, he might really eat us? Every inch of him!!!
