While slaying gods, he suffers from a terminal illness and signs in to collect the seven gods of Gen

Chapter 172 The calm before the storm

"But...why is it only Sister Hongying who came?" Lin Qiye asked, carefully examining the car he hadn't seen for over half a year. "Where are the captain and the others?"

"Oh, you mean this?"

Hongying had just finished listening to Liu Lang's explanation, in which he briefly recounted the events that had occurred in the underground cave.

Hearing Lin Qiye's question, he replied, "Actually, everyone was planning to come and pick you up together today, but some unexpected things happened. The captain and the others went, so I was the only one who had time to come and leave."

What unexpected event occurred?

"It's nothing, just a little situation in the east of the city. Wen Qimo, Leng Xuan, and Xiao Nan went there on a mission. As for the captain and that old guy Xiang Nan, they're meeting with a human being at the pinnacle of power," Hong Ying said calmly.

"What!?" Lin Qiye exclaimed in shock: "The ceiling of humanity."

"Why are you making such a fuss?" Hongying waved her hand and then shrugged. "Isn't it just the ceiling of humanity? Aren't we all just one nose, two eyes, and one mouth?"

Hongyan would never say that when she heard the news, she couldn't even hold her chopsticks properly.

He secretly glanced at Liu Lang, Lei Yingdian, and Mavica.

Seeing that the three of them showed no surprise whatsoever, she was still a little unwilling to give up, "That's the ceiling of human potential! Aren't you curious?"

Liu Lang replied calmly, "Just curious."

"Then why aren't you surprised at all?"

Why be surprised?

"That's the ceiling of human potential! I was terrified when I heard the news!"

"So what? What happened?"

Hongying: "Emm....." So what? Just pretend!

"By the way, Sister Hongying, who is she, the pinnacle of humanity?"

Hongying rolled her eyes at Liu Lang, then replied, "He came by carriage; he must be that 'Master'."

"I heard that a few days ago, in the Jinan Mountain area, they detected some fluctuations of 'gods'."

So, they specially invited a human ceiling expert to investigate.

Now, let's first get a feel for the situation from our squad stationed in Cangnan. Later, we'll probably have to go to the battalion to talk to that commander.

Liu Lang's expression didn't change at all, as if he already knew.

Lin Qiye remained in shock throughout, knowing that there were only five "human ceilings" in the entire Great Xia Dynasty.

"If only I could become the ceiling of humanity..." Lin Qiye sighed.

Although the gods in the "Asylum of Gods" inside him are all stronger than the last, he is very confident in his ability to grow into a powerful being. After all, as long as he can improve the treatment progress, he can possess the abilities of one of the gods in the "Asylum of Gods".

However, this does not prevent him from praising the few human heights of Great Xia that only exist in his ears.

"The ceiling of humanity? Maybe we'll surpass the ceiling of humanity in the future!" Liu Lang said jokingly.

.....

The entrance to the Peace Office.

Looking at the Peace Agency's sign, Mavica asked curiously, "Is this the base of Squad 136?"

“Hmm.” Lei Yingdian nodded.

"Isn't this a little too small?" Mavica asked with some doubt.

Because he did not immediately cover the area with his mental power, nor did he explore underground.

In addition, their underground base has a certain function of blocking mental energy detection, so Mavica was unaware of how huge a space was underground.

Ding-dong!

welcome!

"Captain, Xiangnan Old Dog, Xiao Nan, Leng Xuan, Qi Mo, come out quickly... I've brought Sister Ying and the others back!" Hong Ying shouted as soon as she entered the door.

Seemingly having overheard what Maweika said, she explained, "Don't let our small store fool you, there's a lot more to it than meets the eye!"

“Hmm?” Mavica was skeptical.

"You'll see for yourself," Lei Yingdian said with a smile. Having been here for so long, she was familiar with everything about the place.

But Mavica is different; his main understanding of this world comes from the Flame Vein Earth Dragon.

But how could the Flame Vein Earth Dragon know anything about things inside human cities? Mavica was very curious about everything she had encountered along the way.

Nata also has some similar things, such as cars, just like her wheeled vehicles.

She was curious about how cars worked, but not particularly surprised.

However... she was particularly surprised by products like mobile phones.

"Yes, yes, I'll take you inside and you'll see what's going on," Hongying nodded.

"Wouldn't that be a bit inappropriate? Isn't it against the rule that you can't just bring strangers into the camp?" Liu Lang asked, somewhat puzzled.

"It's alright, it's alright." Hongying waved her hand and said, "Mavika can come and go freely in the training camp, so what's wrong with her coming to our 136th Squad? Anyway, this isn't a military base, and many people know about this place."

"Right."

Hongying led everyone to the underground activity room of Squad 136 located below the Peace Law Firm.

"came back?"

"I'm back! I've brought everyone back safely." Hongying skipped over to the table and took a deep breath. "Ah~ it smells so good."

"I was wondering why you didn't hear me calling you from upstairs. Turns out you were all waiting here." Hongying said, drooling as she looked at the large table of delicious-looking dishes in front of her.

The moment Lin Qiye, Liu Lang, and Lei Yingdian entered, Lin Qiye immediately stopped at the doorway.

Seeing this, Liu Lang quickly followed and spoke in unison with Lin Qiye.

"Lin Qiye, Night Watch Squad 136, reporting for duty! Requesting instructions!"

"Liu Lang, Night Watch Squad 136, reporting for duty! Requesting instructions!"

Hongying muttered beside the table, "Our 136th squad doesn't have so many rules. We can just sit down and wait for the captain to finish cooking so we can start eating!"

Just as everyone was preparing for the new member induction ceremony, they were completely taken aback by Hongying's actions.

"Hey, we were planning to say 'Welcome to the new recruits!'" Wen Qimo was the first to stand up and protest. "Now that you've messed it up, it's all so unpleasant."

Hongying glanced at him. "Hmm? You have a problem with that?"

Wen Qimo's courage, which had just been emboldened, instantly shrank back after being glanced at by Hong Ying.

"No...no, how could I dare?"

"Hahaha..." Everyone burst into laughter at Wen Qimo's antics.

Si Xiaonan was the happiest among them, and even Leng Xuan, who was always serious, couldn't help but smile.

At this moment, Chen Muyi came out of the kitchen wearing an apron. "Alright, stop fooling around... Come and sit down quickly, dinner is ready!"
