Chapter 901 – Escort Lai Fu
Lin Qiye watched Sun Wukong and Gilgamesh leave and let out a long breath.
What he should have talked about had already been talked about, and he had done what he could, as for whether or not the subsequent things would develop according to his wishes, it was already outside of his control.
After all, it was the Great Sage of Qi Tian, as well as the oldest Heroic King in the world, their behavior and thoughts could not be swayed by Lin Qiye at all, they would only act according to their own wishes.
Lin Qiye took a sip of tea and was about to go back to his office to rest when he just turned the corner of the corridor and saw Li Yifei walking out of the restroom with a group of people.
”Eh? Seven Nights?”
When Li Yi Fei saw Lin Qiye, he took off the mask on his face and waved at him.
”Li Yifei?” When Lin Qiye saw this, he spoke with some surprise, “Aren’t you the Grand Master? Why did you personally bring someone to sweep the restroom?”
Li Yifei raised an eyebrow, “I was the one who led the cleaning department to sweep the toilets during this period of time, ah? Wasn’t Wang Cai transferred by you to perform official duties?”
”When did I transfer Wangcai ……”
Just halfway through his words, Lin Qiye froze in place.
Then, as if he thought of something, his mouth opened uncontrollably ……
Oh no!
Forgot about this!
Without saying a word, Lin Qiye turned his head and ran towards his office.
In the dim and narrow walkway, Lin Qiye, clad in a white lab coat, hurriedly marched forward through the empty prison.
He finally remembered why he hadn’t seen Wang Cai in the sickbay for a while recently.
After poking the Thunder Beast to death with the chopsticks Zhou Ping had given him earlier, the latter’s soul had been detained in the sickbay, and he had specially assigned Commissioner Wang Cai to terrorize the Thunder Beast in order to raise its fear value to turn it into a caretaker ……
After such a long period of time had passed, there was one thing after another in Daxia, and the busy Lin Qiye had completely put this matter behind him.
I don’t know, how is the Thunder Beast now?
After all, it was a god level artifact spirit, so nothing major should happen, right?
Lin Qiye quickly walked to the entrance of the cell where the Thunder Beast was being held, and just as soon as his eyes looked into it, his entire person froze in place.
Only to see that in the middle of the narrow cell, a dark blue cat was curled up in the corner, its body size was thinner than before, with some vomit remaining in the corner of its mouth, and its eyes were laxly looking ahead, without the slightest bit of despair, pain, and only a hollow dullness after the storm swept over it.
And on the opposite side of it, at the moment a tuxedoed pug is standing up with both feet, sticking to the side of the cell fence, enchanting twisting body ……
After gazing at its bizarre and twisted dance posture for a while, Lin Qiye barely recognized that the dog seemed to be struggling to pole dance.
It opened its mouth, panting and puffing, the dog’s mouth grinning, seductively throwing a wink at the cat in the corner.
The stagnant dark blue kitten in the corner, its body suddenly trembled.
It rolled both eyes and simply fainted, foaming at the mouth.
Lin Qiye: ……
Without saying a word, Lin Qiye carried the tuxedo that had somehow turned up on Wangcai’s body and directly ripped it out of the cell.
”Wang! Good day Dean!” Want Cai saw Lin Qiye arrive and spoke.
”What have you done?” Lin Qiye looked at the unconscious dark blue kitten in the cell and couldn’t help but spit out, “I asked you to come and temper it, I didn’t ask you to come and murder it.”
Wang Cai blinked, seemingly failing to understand what the difference was between tempering and plotting to kill.
Lin Qiye sighed and asked, “How long has it been like this?”
”What?”
”Foaming at the mouth and fainting.”
Wang Cai thought for a moment, “In the beginning it was about once a day, then the frequency slowly became less, now it’s about once every two or three days, but it can faint for a day at a time ……”
Lin Qiye: ……
Forget it, no matter what kind of tactics Wang Cai used, as long as he could raise the Thunder Beast’s fear value to the required 60, otherwise Lin Qiye would have to put in a lot of effort to turn it into a hospital caretaker.
Lin Qiye turned his head to look at the panel in the prison.
”
Sinner: thunder beast
Choice ……
Current fear value: 673
”
Lin Qiye saw the red “673” on the panel and the corners of his mouth twitched madly.
He vaguely remembered that before Wang Cai began to temper the Thunder Beast, his fear value seemed to be only a little more than twenty …… During this time, what kind of inhuman torture did the Thunder Beast go through?
Lin Qiye sighed and woke the Thunder Beast from his fainting spell, the latter violently bounced up from the ground and quickly shrunk to the corner of the cell, a pair of small meaty paws covering his eyes, his body shrinking into a ball and trembling uncontrollably.
”Thunder Beast.” Lin Qiye shouted.
The Thunder Beast was stunned as it lifted its face that was filled with terror and helplessness and looked at Lin Qiye dumbfounded for a moment, the corners of its eyes unexpectedly flooded with tears ……
Seeing the Thunder Beast’s miserable expression, Lin Qiye coughed twice in some embarrassment, cleared his throat, and slowly spoke:
”Now, you have two choices, either die or ……”
”Meow-!!!”
”…… you choose to die?”
Lin Qiye’s expression quirked up as he looked at the Thunder Beast’s determined gaze that was bent on death, and after a moment of silence, he modified the options, “Two choices, either become my caretaker, or I’ll lock it up for another ten years and lock you up for another ten years ……”
The thunder beast’s tiger body shook!
Two minutes later.
The Thunder Beast wearing a dark green color escort uniform with a nameplate on its chest was lifeless as it followed Lin Qiye out of the underground cell.
Under Wang Cai’s expression of drooling while smiling nervously, the Thunder Beast only took half a second to lose the battle and obediently signed the deed of sale with Lin Qiye, becoming the 432nd escort of the Asylum of the Gods …… At the same time, it was also the first divine level escort here.
”Thunder Beast …… No, I will call you Lai Fu from now on.” Lin Qiye didn’t think at all and smoothly gave this Japanese divine beast from the High Heavenly Plains an authentic Daxia cat name.
”Do you know about the Transforming Whale?”
Hearing these two words, Rai Fu faintly froze and meowed breathlessly.
Although the Thunder Beast itself was a Japanese divine beast and didn’t speak Chinese, after it became the caretaker of the Asylum of the Gods, it possessed a spiritual link with Lin Qiye, so even if the language was not understood, Lin Qiye could understand what it meant.
”Are you saying that it’s a divine beast of the High Heavenly Plains just like you?” Lin Qiye paused and asked again, “Then do you know when it left the High Heavenly Plains?”
Laifu shook his head, “After I became the artifact spirit of the Eight Length Mirror, I never returned to the High Heavenly Plains.”
”What about the Gods of the High Heavenly Plains? Didn’t they come looking for you?”
”In the beginning, Lord Jianyou would come once a year to maintain it, observing the situation within the ‘Circle of Man’ and collecting the power of faith …… but then, he never came again.”
”What about the other gods of the High Heavenly Plains?”
”Never appeared either, it was as if they had disappeared, completely abandoning this ‘Circle of Man’.”
”Disappeared?” Lin Qiye’s brows furrowed slightly, “Since when?”
Laifu thought for a moment and spoke with some uncertainty, “Probably …… from fifty or sixty years ago?”
