Chapter 84: Chapter 84 Departure to the Neighboring City
 

“`

Not only Luo Jianxing had a greenish complexion.

It wasn't until each of them had drained their medicinal concoction to the last drop that Yinling finally withdrew her gaze and left, satisfied.

Luo Jianxing covered his mouth.

He felt like throwing up.

This bitterness was unbearable for mere mortals. It would be perfectly normal to vomit if you couldn't hold it in…

Crack crack crack—

The cracks spread like a spiderweb; the unremarkable wooden table nearby couldn't hold up any longer and broke apart, collapsing to the ground with a thud.

Gurgle.

The medicine he'd been barely holding back surged back down.

Bitter medicine is good for health. Yinling was acting in their best interest all along ε(┬┬﹏┬┬)3!

…

“Instructor, all the preparatory personnel have taken their dose of the Nutrition Elixir Type One. I believe they all have potential, and well, Black Blade has said to increase their training load by 50%. Yinling will also monitor their indicators to ensure nothing goes wrong,”

Yinling said, pausing before adding, “Even if there's an accident, the Healing Stream can bring them back.”

If they can be brought back, then, okay.

How could high-intensity training be accident-free? He'd heard from Black Blade that before, fearing the trainees would get injured and slow down the training efficiency, he had to arrange some very gentle training tasks.

Now it's different, as long as it doesn't kill them, push them to their limits.

The newly appointed physician Yinling could not only heal physical injuries but also offer psychological counseling—nothing could go wrong.

This was Fang You's own addition.

He asked, “How is the research on the Physical Fitness Elixir going? Do we have the capability to mass-produce it?”

Yinling started to fret, “The components of the Physical Fitness Elixir aren't that complex, and I am capable of making it, but there's a key ingredient I can't find a substitute for—there are many special ingredients I can't find!”

There's no helping it.

Yinling had described some special ingredients to him before.

For instance, some grow on the carcasses of giant beasts, some in places filled with the energy of death, and so on—all in abnormal environments.

Giant mystic beasts have been seen, but they don't leave corpses behind.

They vanish completely upon death.

The difference is that common mystic evils dissipate into nothing with a hiss, while the powerful ones slowly turn to smoke after being dismembered.

With no possibility of leaving behind a corpse, there's no chance of the special ingredients Yinling mentioned.

Unless,

You delve into the grey world beneath the surface of reality!

That world, based on reality, clearly differs from it… He had once observed it for a while through An Jianyou's perspective.

But that grey world is riddled with dangers!

It's not an issue to consider at the moment.

Yinling comforted him, “Instructor doesn't need to worry, I'll definitely find a substitute. Oh, and I'll start working on a superior elixir that can slowly enhance the instructor's physique too!”

Yinling is indeed a responsible person.

With her in charge, Fang You felt at ease, but he still reminded her, “Don't forget to carry out the daily tasks. Also, Black Blade, An Jianyou, and I will be away for some time. You'll be in charge of handling the affairs of this office during this period. Oh, and make sure to keep an eye on Black Pupil, that lazy cat.”

On the sixth floor,

Black Pupil, squatting near the Faceless Statue, scratched his head, then continued to move his paw back to the mouse.

…

At that time,

Baijiang City Investigation Bureau.

Compared to the tense atmosphere of the previous weeks, things were much more relaxed in the Baijiang Bureau, even though the support staff from other bureaus had returned home. The Baijiang division reported no stress.

They had three special grade investigators!

Zhou Ju, Wei Nian, Bai Xue!

The ranks of the ordinary investigators had also been replenished, and Zhou Ju had managed to keep some supplies from the previous support.

They even had Thunder Talismans and Fire Pearls.

“`

One could say our forces were strong and our horses healthy.

But with great power comes great responsibility, and now that Baijiang City's safety index is ranked highest in the country, our investigators can't just slack off here in Baijiang.

During the meeting, Director Zhou spoke, “Previously, our brother cities supported Baijiang, helping us withstand the surging tide of Mysterious Evil. Now, it's our turn to support the brother cities.”

“Fortunately, we're well-staffed at the moment, so I'll arrange the assignments.”

“Bai Xue will lead a team to support Qingshui City, Wei Nian will lead a team to support Lindong City, and I will personally lead a team to Jiangbei City. The specific personnel assignments are as follows… Any objections?”

An investigator spoke up, “This… Will the staff remaining to guard the city be too few? I'm afraid we won't be able to cope with any unexpected situations that may arise in Baijiang.”

“I actually think there's no need for many to stay behind; our Baijiang City is very safe,” responded Jiang Tingqiu.

As for why it was safe, everyone was clear.

It was because of that organization's existence!

They were also dealing with Mysterious Evil, even more efficiently than their own investigation bureau. Before they even discovered anything, the Mysterious Evil had already been eradicated.

So efficiently, in fact, that it made them feel ashamed.

“Then why don't we try to hire some experts from that organization? Jiangbei City and Lindong City both have plenty of powerful Mysterious Evil foes that are difficult to deal with,” suggested another investigator.

Director Zhou hesitated.

He was well aware of the horrors of two-star Mysterious Evils. Even with support from the state's experts, dealing with such Mysterious Evil would definitely not be easy.

But to hire…

“Just like the state bureau hires some Hunters of Mystic Evil,” said the investigator.

Jiang Tingqiu disagreed, “It's not the same.”

Director Zhou also felt it was different.

What kind of people were these Hunters? To put it nicely, they were contributing to society by fighting Mysterious Evil. To put it unkindly, they were unruly individuals who had gained power.

But firstly, these people were few in number.

Secondly, compared to Mysterious Evil, the harm caused by wild Awakeners was much smaller—either recruit them or guide them to become Hunters of Mystic Evil.

If they committed grave misdeeds, it wasn't difficult to simply gun them down.

Firearms might not work against Mysterious Evil, but they were still effective against Awakeners, weren't they?

Gunning them down directly seemed wasteful. Those beyond pardon were said to be captured and sent to research institutes, while those who were law-abiding yet unwilling to be constrained would take on employment offers from state bureaus, dealing with some more troublesome Mysterious Evil.

This was the role of the Hunters of Mystic Evil.

However, the Torchbearer organization was different—not only because they were powerful but also because they were noble; to compare them with Hunters of Mystic Evil was to insult the Torchbearers.

“During the previous Gate of Hell defense battle, we publicly claimed to have hired Torchbearer, but in reality, they were the ones who notified us, and they offered their help without asking for compensation,” Zhou explained.

The investigation bureau also offered Fire Pearls, Thunder Talismans, and Buddha Beads as tokens of gratitude.

But this was not the same as hiring.

“Individuals as noble as the Black Blade, silently combating Mysterious Evil, hiring them with money… it just doesn't seem right.”

“Director, perhaps we can phrase it differently. Our Baijiang City was just ranked the safest city in the country, and it's not just our own merit. I think we ought to show our appreciation,” suggested an investigator.

Director Zhou paused, lost in thought.

Before setting out, Fang You received a piece of news.

The investigation bureau wanted to collaborate.

To express their gratitude, they were prepared to allocate several plots of land to them.

“What do you think, Mentor?”

“That's no problem,” he said.

The investigation bureau may not believe if he said it out loud, but he was actually about to head to Jiangbei City.

The investigation bureau was rich and influential.

What a shame that they must remain modest; otherwise, they could take it all and charge according to the hunting standards of the Hunters of Mystic Evil— that would all be money.

Fang You gathered his thoughts and spoke:

“Now, I will assign some tasks.”
