Chapter 129: Abandoned File (2) [Reposted due to mistake] “…Hey hey hey…
On the Fisher family's holiday island, due to the need to "protect privacy", the location of the island has always been a mystery, and even senior VICs are not clear about its specific coordinates.
It was not until the end of the mission that the ghosts learned through the positioning system of the main control room that this place was not far from the Hans country where Hohenzollern Castle was located. In other words, these heinous transactions basically took place under the nose of the civilized world. The ghosts felt it was very ironic.
It would take some time for Lucifer to come over, so the goblins and mermaids divided into more than a dozen groups, sitting idly on the beach, playing Werewolf while waiting for him.
Of course, it's the normal kind that doesn't kill people.
A few minutes later, Lucifer and Thoth arrived. Thoth first registered the survivors one by one, so that they could later be handed over to the mermaids. As the ancient Egyptian goddess of wisdom and writing, she could write at a speed that left a trail of ink, but with nearly a thousand mermaids on the island, this task would inevitably take some time.
So the ghosts continued to wait idly. Si Ling had noticed Xie Bian's arrival from the beginning, so he approached him and said, "Why are you here? Looking for me?"
Although Xie Bian was anxious, he still kept his promise to Lucifer and said, "Yes, when things are over here, let's find a place where no one is around to talk."
"It's possible right now." Si Ling looked around the island. "There are many deserted places. I don't have anything to do right now."
Xie Bian still said: "Let's talk about it after it's over."
Seeing his insistence, Si Ling knew there must be a reason, so she decided not to ask any more questions. However, she soon noticed that Xie Bian was restless, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, so she asked again, but received the same answer.
Si Ling had no choice but to give up.
20 minutes later, Toth completed the basic information registration, and Lucifer contacted the merman and sent the coordinates of the island.
Mermaids are a huge race that lives throughout the western oceans. Even though they have abandoned many of their original habitats in recent years to avoid being hunted by humans, they still have members in every sea area.
So, just a few minutes after the message was sent, the melodious singing gradually came over. Si Ling listened carefully, but she couldn't make out the exact lyrics, but she felt the joy and enthusiasm.
This joy unconsciously infected everyone who heard the singing. The ghosts smiled and walked to the beach to look around. Many mermaids couldn't wait to jump into the sea and take the initiative to reunite with their companions.
When the mermaids swam closer, Thoth's eyes narrowed slightly, and he turned his head to look at Lucifer who was chatting with Aymeric: "Principal Lucifer."
Lucifer looked back, and Thoth pointed to a place not far away: "It seems that Her Majesty the Queen has come in person."
Lucifer hurried over and looked in the direction Thoth had pointed. Sure enough, he saw Anna Maris, sitting in a white chariot made of shells, pulled by sixteen seahorses.
When they were still three or five meters away from the beach, the carriage and the mermaids stopped.
Lucifer stepped forward and nodded politely, "Your Majesty."
Queen Anna transformed into human legs and feet, stood up and stepped out of the carriage: "The mermaids will always remember your help, my friends."
Lucifer smiled, then sighed, offering a profound suggestion: "Please do not let down your guard, the mermaids. After all, humans... Your Majesty knows them. The demise of the Fisher family does not mean that crimes against mermaids will cease. I'm afraid someone will soon come to seize this 'market'."
"I completely agree with you, Mr. Lucifer." Queen Anna smiled dignifiedly. "I also have something I want to discuss with you. Our parliament has just passed a new resolution to appoint some members to become students of the Ghost Academy so that they can protect themselves in the future. What do you think, Mr. Principal?"
Lucifer was slightly stunned, a little surprised by this, but immediately said, "Of course I welcome it."
Queen Anna was obviously aware of the dispute between him and Satan. Seeing that he agreed so readily, she tactfully said, "Perhaps you should discuss it with Satan."
"No, absolutely not." Lucifer raised an eyebrow, "There's no need to discuss the matter of the Ghost Academy with him."
Si Ling and Xuan Chi looked at each other silently, holding back their laughter and remaining silent.
Queen Anna nodded. "In that case, I am very grateful. We will discuss the relevant matters in detail later."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Si Ling and Xuan Chi again: "As for what you want, the mermaid tribe will send elite troops to the ruins of Atlantis."
Si Ling smiled: "Thank you very much."
"We'll keep in touch at any time." Queen Anna nodded slightly, then said that she would first settle the rescued tribesmen as soon as possible, and politely ended the conversation.
As the ghosts happily watched the mermaids leave, Xie Bian's nervousness had reached its peak.
It was difficult for him to judge whether this tension was necessary, because he actually had no idea what the picture shown in the jade slip meant, and he had no way of judging which direction things would develop next.
Now, he is about to face this unpredictable follow-up.
"Mr. Lucifer." He called Lucifer meaningfully. Lucifer looked back at him, understood what he meant, and immediately asked the students to leave.
Just like the previous slave ship mission, most ghosts can float or swim back to the academy directly, and a few need to take a boat. They directly chose a luxury cruise ship from the island pier and set off.
Seeing that Xie Bian had no intention of leaving, Si Ling wisely stayed. Xuan Chi also naturally stayed. After the others left the island, Si Ling once again asked Xie Bian: "What's going on?"
Xie Bian took a deep breath, flipped his hand, and produced the green jade scroll. His voice trembled with uncontrollable excitement: "Come and see..."
Si Ling's gaze paused on the green jade slip.
Having lived for thirty thousand years, she knew that the Green Jade Slip was the Heavenly Court's favorite record-keeping medium. Furthermore, considering that Xuan Chi's past might involve Heavenly Court secrets, she immediately said, "Should I step aside for now?"
"No." Xie Bian shook his head repeatedly. "You must see it. This is simply..." He cast a spell to make the green jade slip float in front of him, and then waved his hand to make it unfold. "It's so shocking."
Driven by magic power, the green jade slip slowly spread out and then turned transparent, just as Xie Bian saw in the waste file room.
A line of golden text appeared in front of the three people: The divine army defeated the Western forces overseas, the emperor ordered a banquet to celebrate the victory, and bestowed the moonlight dew.
Xuan Chi's eyes trembled violently, and some vague and hazy images surged in the depths of his memory. He knew what he should remember, but all he saw were some bright blocks of color. He felt a long-lost joy from it, but he could not grasp any details, just like the countless times he tried to recall the past.
Then the words before my eyes dissipated, and a dazzling array of images unfolded: layers of clouds, resplendent golden buildings, and the melodious sound of sacred bells.
When hearing the distant bell, Si Ling was a little dazed and began to subconsciously look carefully at the beautiful scenery in the picture, trying to find a light golden lake.
But this scene soon disappeared, and was replaced by a scene of a banquet in the hall.
They saw the gods standing on either side, and then saw the central gate open. Seeing Xuan Chi walk through the main gate, he and Si Ling were not as shocked as Xie Bian, and they did not have any outrageous speculations like "Could Xuan Chi be the Emperor of Heaven?"
Until the person outside the picture laughed: "I have read your letter, General."
Si Ling was stunned and looked at the screen blankly.
Xuan Chi suddenly looked at Si Ling, an inexplicable burning sensation attacked his chest, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"Today is just for celebration, we can discuss political matters later."
"I ordered someone to prepare moonlight dew, and I will get drunk today."
Then the view turned, and the waiter serving wine came into view. Si Ling noticed the bronze goblet on the tray at a glance - not long ago, she had seen a very similar bronze goblet in the Dafu Museum, and at that time she just felt that it looked familiar.
The burning sensation became more intense.
Xuan Chi raised his hand to press on his chest and regulated his breathing, but it was unable to relieve the discomfort.
The perspective changed again, and the servant came forward with a tray. He saw himself taking out one of the wine cups and drinking it all in one gulp.
The distant memory was like a sudden wave hitting the reef. Amidst the burning sensation that almost swallowed him, Xuan Chi remembered the taste of Moonlight Dew.
The scene presented by the green jade slip finally turned to the Emperor of Heaven.
The Emperor of Heaven was also drinking from a cup. His raised arm and the wine cup covered most of his face, but Si Ling was still so frightened that he took a step back and shook his head in panic.
She stared at the Emperor of Heaven in disbelief. The shock made her feel resistant and escapist, and she didn't want to read on.
But the next second, the Emperor drank the wine in the cup, put down the cup, and revealed his smiling face completely.
——It was a face exactly like Si Ling’s.
It is true that the temperament is completely different. There is not a trace of the gloom and indifference of the evil spirit, nor the paleness of the evil spirit. Instead, there is the majesty and endless divinity that looks down on all living things.
But from the facial features, they are exactly the same.
Si Ling stared at her in a daze, unable to react at all.
"...Hey hey hey Xuan Chi, what's going on with you?!" Xie Bian suddenly exclaimed.
Si Ling turned back suddenly to see Xuan Chi, who had somehow transformed into the black armor, his entire body enveloped in green flames. His eyes sometimes flashed completely white, sometimes returning to normal. He clenched his teeth, the veins on his forehead tense, his expression agonized. Beads of cold sweat oozed from his forehead, dissolving into smoke amidst the green flames.
Xie Bian was confused about the situation and stood there in a daze. Si Ling shouted, "Oh no! A Rakshasa ghost!"
These four words instantly sent a chill through Xie Bian's body. Almost simultaneously, Xuan Chi's eyes turned completely white, and his face, filled with pain, instantly became dull.
He raised his head, stared at Si Ling, and moved his neck.
"Damn!" Si Ling reacted quickly and decided to escape without hesitation. He immediately turned around and rushed towards the sky.
