Chapter 908 – Files
”So what do we do?” Lin Qiye asked as he looked back at the disgusting monsters that were in hot pursuit.
Merlin didn’t say anything, he just raised his head and glanced faintly backward, “Just a few flies, just swat them.”
As his words fell, several dark blue magic arrays opened up at the rear of the carriage, and pillars of destructive light rushed out like swords, instantly drowning out the corpse-beast figures that were following closely behind, and they dissolved into the air before they even had a chance to let out a roar of pain.
Blue flame embers danced in the air, and the blood-like sky once again fell into a dead silence.
Calan’s mouth opened wide in shock.
Lin Qiye’s body, which was leaning on the back of the chair, relaxed slightly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
With Mei Lin by his side, even if he was in the High Heavenly Plains that had already fallen into the Red Moon, Lin Qiye felt unprecedentedly at ease, as if this wasn’t some calamitous land where the gods had fallen, but rather their own backyard.
This damned sense of security!
Praise the God of Magic!
Lin Qiye’s gaze swept out the window and saw that the carriage did not advance deeper into the High Heavenly Plains, but instead, it had been following the periphery, circling around in an arc without panic:
”Lord Merlin, where are we going?”
Merlin smiled slightly, “To prepare a gift for you.”
”Susanoo killed all the gods of Takatenkara?”
Hearing Wu Xiangnan’s description, shock surfaced on Wang Mian’s face.
Although they had known about the matter of the [Blue Rain] squad mistakenly entering the High Heavenly Plains and being annihilated by the Man of Suzaku’s regiment a long time ago, the details of it had always been the top secret of the Night’s Watch, and even he didn’t have the authority to know about it.
At this moment, hearing about the events of that year from Wu Xiangnan’s mouth, he was naturally surprised.
”Perhaps, we are not sure.” Wu Xiangnan shook his head, “We just rushed all the way to the deepest part of the High Heavenly Plains, and we haven’t been to any other places, and we don’t know if there are any gods existing in other places.”
”And then, he struck out at you guys?”
Wu Xiangnan slowly closed his eyes and calmly said, “That’s right, after we broke into that area, he carried the Heavenly Crowning Cloud Sword, leapt down from the top of the corpse mountain, and began to hunt us down ……
He was too strong, and also holding two divine weapons, the Heavenly Clouds Sword and the Eight-foot Agaric Hook Jade, which is not even on the same level as a divine beast like the Eight Giant Serpent, in just a few moments of work, we were completely routed, and in the end, a sword light flashed, and I was dead.
After I was reborn and resurrected, Susanoo had already left, and all that was left around me were the corpses of my companions.
I rushed out from the depths alone, encountered the hordes of corpse beasts several times, and expended several lives before I barely escaped the High Heavenly Plains and returned to Daxia.”
Wu Xiangnan slowly put down the teacup in his hand, the tea in the cup had long since cooled down, and the atmosphere fell into a silence.
After a long time, Wang Mian opened his mouth to comfort, “At least, you survived and returned here.”
Wu Xiangnan was noncommittal.
”So, in fact, the Night’s Watch executives already knew that there was a change of heart within the High Heavenly Plains a few years ago?”
”Uh-huh.” Wu Xiangnan nodded, “After returning to Daxia, I reported everything I saw in the High Heavenly Plains, it’s one of the top secrets of the Night Vigilantes, but even if I knew about it, it wouldn’t be of much use.”
Wang Mian thought carefully, “Indeed.”
Although Wu Xiangnan brought back the situation of the High Heavenly Plains, but this was just a hanging mystery to the Night’s Watch back then, after all, what exactly happened within the High Heavenly Plains, whether the High Heavenly Plains Gods were all extinguished or not, and what was that red moon, all these questions were unanswered by the Night’s Watch.
Taking a step back, even if the Night’s Watch side knew that the High Heavenly Plains had completely fallen, they couldn’t take any action.
After all, even if there was only one Susanoo left in the High Heavenly Plains, back in the year when the gods of Da Xia had not been revived and Zhou Ping had not yet become a god, there was simply no one in Da Xia who could fight against Susanoo, and even less who could kill him.
Therefore, this shocking secret can only be dusted off in the deepest depths of the Night Watch archives ……
Until today.
Daxia.
Wearing a dark red cloak, Zuo Qing walked through the dusty archive room and finally stopped in front of a gray wall.
He stretched out his palm and gently pressed at the corner of the wall, a silver box full of technology popped out from the wall, Zuo Qing brought his own eyes close to the box, a ray of light swept through, and an icy electronic tone resounded within the archive room.
”Highest authority verification passed.”
In the next moment, the gray wall in front of Zuo Qing opened silently, and a clean white narrow secret room appeared in front of him.
This secret room was closed around the thick metal wall, solid as gold, and the furnishings within this secret room were also very simple, except for a metal shelf in the very center, and the few documents placed on it, the rest of the place was empty.
Zuo Qing stepped in front of this metal rack and stopped.
His fingertips slowly slid across the surface of these documents.
Cangnan City Miracle City Files, Suspected Heavenly Court Debris Investigation Files, High Heavenly Plains Red Moon Files ……
The number of these documents was extremely small, but the span of years was large, the “Cangnan City Miracle City File” dated from about twelve years ago, while the “Suspected Heavenly Court Debris Investigation File” dated from more than seventy years ago …… In the midst of these files, there was even a parchment scroll originating from the Han Dynasty, sealed and preserved by scientific means.
These files are the highest level of secrets of the Night Watch, and every one of them is enough to subvert the vast majority of people’s knowledge of the world.
Zuo Qing’s gaze did not linger on these archives, but directly took out the High Heavenly Plains Red Moon Archives and turned around to leave the secret room.
In his other hand, he held a classified document that had just been completed, and even the ink was new: “Ninchang County Fishing Village Time Closed Loop Investigation File”.
He walked to the table in the archive room and sat down, placing the two documents together and scrutinizing them against each other.
Time passed by minute by minute, the sky outside the window gradually darkened, I don’t know how long it took before Zuo Qing slowly raised his head and rubbed the corners of his tired eyes.
”What is the connection between the High Heavenly Plains …… Red Moon …… and the two? It always feels like something is still missing ……”
He let out a long sigh and stood up from his chair, placing both documents back in the secret room and heading outside the archive room.
Just at this moment, the crisp ringtone of a cell phone rang.
Zuo Qing pulled out his cell phone and answered the call.
”Hello?”
”……”
”What?” Zuo Qing’s brows furrowed as his face became grave, “Still haven’t found the whereabouts of Lin Qiye and Jia Lan?”
