Catching Ghosts as Head of Yin Department-Chapter 607 - 605: Trial

"Breaking the rules is hard, but making the rules is easy."

Old Zhao once again reminded Mo Lin: "You might have some misconceptions.

A fist can only determine victory or defeat, whereas power can change the rules."

This remark was enlightening for Mo Lin.

Before arriving here, Mo Lin never thought that power could change anything.

At least in Mo Lin's understanding, ever since the bizarre descended upon the world, the world's rules have been broken.

There was no such thing as rights.

But after coming here, Mo Lin changed his mind.

Just like Old Zhao said.

The two of them are the managers of the East District.

A single word can revive the East District, and a single word can abandon the entire East District.

"How can you manage the entire East District?"

Mo Lin felt that his words weren't clear enough and said once more: "Why should the forces in the East District listen to you two?"

Two people managing the entire East District and making all forces listen to them, isn't that a bit difficult?

Old Gao smiled helplessly, "You'll understand once you become a manager."

He didn't explain further, as some things can't be clarified with just a sentence or two.

Mo Lin wouldn't understand even if they explained, unless he became a manager himself.

Once Mo Lin becomes the manager of the East District, he would understand everything even if nothing is said.

Mo Lin and Luo Xiaoxiao were led into a tall building.

The two took the elevator to the seventh floor and were arranged into a room.

Besides Mo Lin and Luo Xiaoxiao, there are other residents in this building.

It seems like outsiders are all arranged into this building.

The room contains a double bed.

Mo Lin lay on the bed, contemplating the words of Old Gao and Old Zhao during the day.

Mo Lin immediately realized that to change the East District, he has to become its manager.

But Old Zhao and Old Gao have not said how to become a manager.

It probably won't be easy.

The next day.

Knock, knock, knock...

Mo Lin was startled awake by a series of knocks on the door.

Mo Lin opened the door to find the middle-aged man who had informed him of winning a Seasonal Coins spot a few days ago.

"Let me introduce myself, I'm Tang Yu."

Tang Yu said to Mo Lin: "Gather downstairs."

So Mo Lin headed downstairs, while Luo Xiaoxiao stayed in the room due to not qualifying for the Seasonal Coins.

Tang Yu knocked on each door unhurriedly, notifying everyone to gather downstairs.

When Mo Lin reached downstairs, he quickly noticed something unusual.

Are there too many people participating in the Seasonal Coins?

By the time Mo Lin came down, there were already over fifty people downstairs.

And people were still coming down from upstairs gradually.

This continued for over thirty minutes.

Approximately over three hundred people had congregated downstairs.

The number is indeed too large.

Mo Lin scanned with his eyes but did not see anyone he recognized.

Tang Yu stood before the crowd and slowly announced: "You all have a spot for participating in the Seasonal Coins.

Your strength has been assessed."

But Mo Lin was a bit confused about how Tang Yu and the others assessed everyone's strength.

Mo Lin swept his gaze around, meaning these 300 or so people are very strong.

They shouldn't be much weaker than Mo Lin if he doesn't summon Nvwa.

"You people have only passed the preliminary selection; next is the quota contest."

Among you, only ten will be selected," Tang Yu announced again.

Mo Lin was not surprised.

It's impossible for 300 or so people to participate in the Seasonal Coins simultaneously.

"Select ten? Are we supposed to fight each other?" a man stood and asked in confusion.

Upon hearing the words "fight each other," everyone's expression turned gloomy.

Cultivation isn't easy for everyone, and dying in such a manner feels a bit stifling.

At least many are unwilling.

"I'll take you to the Evil Temple; whoever can stay there for three days and come out alive will be promoted.

If you can slay evil spirits, you can earn additional points," Tang Yu announced to the crowd.

"Evil Temple? Oh, my... I give up."

One man stood out and voluntarily gave up, "Half a year ago, I accidentally entered the Evil Temple and almost died in there, I'm not going."

"Sending us to the Evil Temple is like sending us to die." Another man also expressed his stance, saying, "I also give up."

Gradually, about ten or so people gave up.

Evil Spirit, Mo Lin has known about this term for a long time.

Like Evil Spirits, but not belonging to the same type.

Just like ghosts and immortals.

Evil Spirits and Evil Spirits are two opposing forces.

Mo Lin had heard of evil spirits but never seen them.

He had only seen Evil Spirits.

Those who stayed are willing to go to the Evil Temple.

"Those who stayed, follow me." Tang Yu led the crowd to the Evil Temple.

They boarded a large ship that sailed for more than an hour before reaching the South District.

The East District is plagued by evil spirits; the South District is troubled by Evil Spirits.

Currently, Evil Spirits are also unresolved problems for the South District.

On the ship, people started to form alliances gradually.

They assembled teams to survive in the upcoming Evil Temple.

The power of an individual will eventually be small, but banding together makes them strong.

"Brother, where do you come from?" a young man approached Mo Lin and asked.

"East District," Mo Lin replied slowly.

Upon hearing "East District," the young man immediately turned away without saying another word.

Subsequently, others also attempted to converse with Mo Lin, but upon hearing "East District," they avoided him.

Moreover, Mo Lin discovered something: it seems like he's the only one from the East District here.

At least, Mo Lin hadn't encountered anyone from the East District yet.

"What's wrong with people from the East District? Is there a problem?" Mo Lin was puzzled.

A long-haired woman kindly reminded Mo Lin: "People from the East District attract Evil Spirits.

Be careful when you enter the Evil Temple."

"People from the East District attract Evil Spirits? Why?" Mo Lin asked the long-haired woman in confusion.

"You have the aura of Evil Spirits on you, and Evil Spirits are most disgusted by Evil Spirits.

If you carry the aura of Evil Spirits, those Evil Spirits will find you first and attempt to kill you," said the long-haired woman, reminding Mo Lin.

Clearly, these people knew a lot.

Who knows how much time passed, but they finally arrived.

It is night now, and there was no light outside.

Only Tang Yu's flashlight illuminated the surroundings.

"The Evil Temple is right in front, go ahead."

Tang Yu pointed to the Evil Temple in front and said slowly.

When Mo Lin looked toward the Evil Temple, he was speechless.

An area of thousands of square meters, can this still be called a temple?

This is outright a town, isn't it?

It's even appropriate to call it Evil Spirit Town.

The test is simple: stay inside for three days.

Hundreds of people got off the ship and landed, entering the Evil Temple's area.

Mo Lin followed the crowd inside as well.

Within the range of the Evil Temple, the cold air could be clearly felt.

Mo Lin found a spot at random to stay.

Nothing else is needed; just staying here for three days will suffice.
