Chapter 13 The Patient Who Died Long Ago
The red 918 was speeding along the city streets. Chen Xue's slender and round thighs were fully exposed under her jeans. While gazing at the road, she kept glancing at Jiang Chen out of the corner of her eyes.
To be able to possess such strength at such a young age, in addition to talent, there must be a master behind him who is training him.
"Jiang Chen, would you mind telling me something about your grandfather? Maybe he was an old senior from our world of extraordinary people. Then it would be convenient for you to trace your roots and find your own family." Chen Xue started.
On the one hand, she wanted to gossip, but on the other hand, she had good intentions.
A talented person like Jiang Chen will go further in the future if he is trained by a good family.
Jiang Chen shook his head: "The old man doesn't let me talk about him."
He knew very well that Old Zhang was just a corpse mover in a funeral home, how could he be a master?
But Jiang Chen didn't say anything nonsense. Every time before he went to peek at the widow, Old Zhang would repeatedly remind him not to give him up if he was caught.
Hearing this, Chen Xue's expression froze, and she understood in her heart that Jiang Chen's grandfather was probably quite famous. In order to prevent the grudges in the world of strange people from involving his grandson, he repeatedly reminded him not to mention his own affairs!
She was a smart woman, and after figuring this out, she didn't ask any more questions.
"I heard you say that the two largest forces in Jiuzhou are the Yincao and the Wumeng. How come there are two law enforcement agencies in the world of strange people?" Jiang Chen also asked his doubts.
It's a very simple logic. In an area, there is either no boss and many people are competing for supremacy, or there is only one boss who has the final say.
There is no room for two tigers in one mountain!
"Yes, it was indeed the Wu League that previously oversaw all strange individuals and was responsible for handling supernatural events across the country." Chen Xue nodded and continued, "About a century ago, the Netherworld suddenly rose to prominence. Throughout history, they have gone through several different names."
"The Demon Suppression Division, the Demon Exorcist Guard... were only renamed the Netherworld in modern times, and have taken over the responsibilities of the Wu Alliance."
"The Wu Alliance finally breathed a sigh of relief."
Jiang Chen was stunned. He was relieved that his position as the boss was taken away?
"Haha, it seems you really don't know anything about the world of extraordinary people." Chen Xue shook her head: "Extraordinary people and the extraordinary families are superior to ordinary people, but they also bear pressures that ordinary people can hardly imagine."
"Every time the Yin Qi erupts and the restricted area for the living becomes chaotic, the lives of extraordinary people are used to fill the void!"
"Restricted area for living people?" Jiang Chen glanced at his phone. A message pinned to the top of the Underworld app said that Yin Qi had erupted and unrest in the restricted area might occur earlier than expected. He asked extraordinary people of C+ level or above to go and guard it.
If you are not strong enough, try to go out hunting ghosts to relieve the pressure of insufficient manpower in the underworld.
This was consistent with his previous guess that the reason there were so many murders in the news was because the department dealing with supernatural events was understaffed.
But Jiang Chen has not yet figured out what the restricted area for living people is.
"There's a detailed introduction on the Underworld app. You can take a look at it later. In short, the Living Forbidden Zone is a place connected to a terrifying space. There are 100 of them in the world, and their serial code is SSS!" Chen Xue said seriously.
Jiang Chen's expression was shocked.
He knew that E to S were called threat levels, used to define the strength of strange and sneaky people.
The most terrifying ghost king-level existence in the world today, with a threat level of S.
The three S's of the Living Forbidden Zone mean that in the eyes of all strange people, its threat is two levels higher than that of the Ghost King!
The Ghost King is already a disaster at the level of destroying a country, SSS, does it mean destroying a country?
"By the way, I have a physical mission in four days. Jiang Chen, are you interested?" Chen Xue suddenly asked with a cunning look.
"Xiu Ti mission?" Jiang Chen looked at the other party.
"Well, some large-scale supernatural incidents require multiple people to handle. This time, it was the Qin family member who took the lead in taking on the task and summoning everyone to form a plan. He is one of the strongest among the younger generation in Jiangbei City."
"Also, this mission is a D+ threat level, meaning there are multiple evil spirits and grudges. There's even a question mark about whether or not you'll encounter a fierce ghost. The danger level is quite high. Would you consider this?"
Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment before nodding: "Okay, call me when the time comes."
Whether it is the Hell App or supernatural events found in the news, the strength of the ghost cannot be determined with absolute certainty, which is risky.
Because if someone can determine the strength of a ghost and still leave alive, then there is a high probability that they can kill the ghost directly.
Working together with a group of extraordinary people would undoubtedly reduce the risk, so Jiang Chen was naturally willing to do so.
"Great, I'll pick you up then!" Chen Xue's eyes flashed with a gleam, and she was very happy.
Jiang Chen has no background, and going with her is equivalent to telling others that he has a close relationship with the Chen family.
This was Chen Xue's little idea. She wanted to win over Jiang Chen.
Not long after, the 918 stopped outside the Yuyuan community.
Jiang Chen went home, took a shower, lay on the bed, and opened the Hell app.
He began to search for suitable supernatural events, intending to gather a thousand ghost energies as soon as possible to see if he could unlock a stronger demon transformation card.
"Event Name: Patient who died long ago"
"Description: Ever since that patient arrived, the hospital has become increasingly dysfunctional. Several critically ill patients died overnight, and the nurse on duty committed suicide in the stairwell. Most terrifyingly, their bodies disappeared from the morgue. Doctors checked the surveillance footage and compared the number of people entering and leaving the hospital, only to discover a horrifying truth: the bodies were still hidden within!"
"Threat Level: D+."
"Mission type: Single player."
"Basic reward: 100 points."
Finally, Jiang Chen locked onto this event. The D+ threat level meant that there was a high probability of encountering a top evil ghost, but this event was not classified as a body mission, which meant that judging from all the information, there was only one top evil ghost.
However, most strange people may choose to change the task after reading the description.
A large number of bodies have disappeared, which means that there is more than one ghost in the hospital. Either a C-level master needs to go there, or they need to form a team to ensure safety.
However, this incident just happened to meet Jiang Chen's requirements.
The demon-transforming card in his hand can be said to be a small trump card. It would be a waste if it is used to deal with too simple supernatural events.
"Get some sleep first and come over after class tomorrow."
Jiang Chen lay on the bed, his eyelids growing heavier and heavier, and he fell into a deep sleep.
