Chapter 566 Warehouse (please subscribe)
"You are free to train today."
Zola glanced at the team members and pointed at Zhong Shenxiu: "Levi... you come with me."
"Captain, what happened?"
In the office, Zhong Shenxiu showed a suitably puzzled expression.
"Our scavenger team is mainly responsible for external resource recovery, but you and I are organized as demon hunters, and occasionally there are tasks from other departments... Please prepare and follow me to Area 6 tomorrow to perform defense tasks."
Zola answered businesslikely.
"It looks like the demon hunters of Sky City are very nervous..." Zhong Shenxiu made a guess that normal people would make.
After all, if the personnel had spare time, they would not consider him, an outsider who had just joined, anyway.
"After all, there are very few people who are willing to be like that fool at Morey Pavilion and voluntarily become a formal resident of the Demon Hunter." Zola sighed: "Besides, going from a high-ranking servant to a low-ranking dependent is a huge hurdle, and there are many Demon hunters are unwilling to continue to improve, or have no ability to improve. Finally, the probability of success in containing mental pollution bodies is even lower, resulting in very few familiar-level demon hunters with extremely high mental resistance. Each one is precious, I mean. The one who can be trusted and whose spirit is relatively normal."
"And you can barely do it, because you are on a mission with me, and you are also recommended by Director Isabella. She thinks your spirit is normal enough..."
Zola looked at Zhong Shenxiu with searching eyes.
"Well, this female doctor is very enthusiastic. We have some discussions on medicine. She admires some of my ideas... Although I don't know much about professional knowledge, my thinking is divergent and flexible enough to come up with some things that she has not thought of. Ideas.”
Zhong Shenxiu answered casually and then asked: "Is there something in Area 6 that needs to be guarded by a demon hunter with high mental resistance?"
"Didn't you already guess it?"
Zola said: "Except for those highly polluting monster organs, there is nothing else that requires such care."
‘Well, it does need to be guarded by a demon hunter. If it were an ordinary person, big problems would occur if they were not careful. ’
'It seems that Zola is not so trusted. Otherwise, as a dependent-level demon hunter, she should be allowed to guard the Eye of Gorosa... Well, it seems that she became a demon hunter by accident. , not counting those who were orthodoxly cultivated by Sky City? ’
‘And the characteristics left behind by the gods obviously require candidates who are sufficiently confidential and loyal. ’
Zhong Shenxiu nodded to express his understanding.
…
The next day, he, Zola, and Moregge came to District 6.
There is also a department stationed here called the 'Special Abilities Department', which can actually be called the 'Demon Hunting Department' because it is where demon hunters are stationed and trained, and it is also a warehouse where various extraordinary materials are stored.
When we got here, the number of pedestrians on the road quickly decreased, and the feeling of crowding in buildings where every inch of land was expensive suddenly disappeared.
"Mole Pavilion, your application has been approved. You will study in the Special Abilities Department for a week, and under the care of other demon hunters, you will undergo the correct ritual to accommodate the power of the 'eye demon'..."
Zola looked at Morel Pavilion and her voice became serious: "As an ordinary person, you are already good enough. If you regret it now, it is still too late."
This is her final reminder.
'If I didn't know the end, I would rather be an ordinary person, but it's a pity...'
Morege's expression was firm: "Captain, I'm ready."
"All right……"
Zola was speechless as she led Zhong Shenxiu and the two of them to a dark building.
The style here is different from the surroundings. The weird, cold, and bloody atmosphere is enough to make anyone subconsciously turn around.
In front of the Special Abilities Department, there were several people wearing black tights, capes, and plaid belts wrapped around their waists with various gadgets inside, standing silently, as if waiting for someone.
"Dixie, why are you here?"
Zola looked at the leader, a tall man in his forties with deep eye sockets, a high nose, and a pair of silver eyes, and spoke in surprise.
"As a witcher, I am very interested in new blood who volunteers to become a witcher, and I will personally guide his promotion."
Dixie replied.
"Director Dixie."
Morege suppressed his hatred deeply in his heart and bowed his head respectfully, not wanting the keen demon hunter to discover that his emotions were wrong.
'Dixie...the confidant of the Minister of Special Abilities, and the Special Abilities Department has always been Larry Bruce's sphere of influence. Later, the other party even planned an attack on Mond, making this man who has a great voice to enter the Supreme Council The Minister of Resource Recycling died on the spot...'
"Then I will hand him over to you."
Zola nodded: "Morege is a great young man."
"Don't worry, I will take good care of him."
Before Dixie was exposed, he was a very gentle person, at least Zola had a high opinion of him.
"Then, you two, please come this way."
Another person from the Special Ability Department came forward and did not directly ask him to complete the task.
After all, Zora's status as a witcher is still a secret, although it is not hidden from her superiors.
But she doesn't want too many ordinary people to know, especially those around her.
Zhong Shenxiu nodded with Zola, came to the Special Abilities Department, took the elevator, and went all the way down.
"We built huge warehouses underground, away from residential areas, hoping to reduce possible pollution..."
The person leading the way was a young man in his twenties with purple hair and a bright smile, who called himself Roland.
Seeing Zhong Shenxiu looking at his hair color, she couldn't help but smile and said, "My hair is very strange?"
"Yes, purple hair is rare." Zhong Shenxiu nodded.
"This is a sequelae left behind when I was promoted to a mid-level servant. Fortunately, it's not serious. It's just a change in hair color, which is acceptable."
Roland sighed and replied: "Even if every step is strictly in accordance with the requirements of the "Original Code", absolute safety may not be guaranteed. This is the sorrow of the demon hunter..."
Zola couldn't help but remain silent.
"Okay, this time you need to guard the second underground floor, warehouses 021 to 089."
When the elevator arrived, the gate opened automatically, revealing a dim passage, somewhat like an underground prison-like structure, with various closed iron doors on both sides, and gas wall lamps directly embedded in the wall.
"The time is one week. Food and water will be brought to you. There is a bathroom in your room."
Roland didn't seem to dare to stay here for long and pressed the elevator close button.
After a roar, the gate closed automatically.
Zhong Shenxiu looked at the dim passage and frowned unconsciously.
Because there is a lack of systematic mysterious knowledge in this world, the sealing of these warehouses is not done well enough, and small contamination and influence spread.
'No wonder we can't use ordinary people to guard them. I'm afraid I'll go crazy if I stay there for a long time...'
