Deities Are All Just My Food-Chapter 2041 - 915: Ancient God
"Does it mean we might not be able to enter Godβs ruins in the next couple of days?"
Itβs not surprising for Lin Baici; with so many gods inside Godβs ruins, even Dragon Wing would have to carefully weigh the pros and cons.
For the Security Bureau, every Dragon Wing is top-tier combat power. Any loss would have a huge impact. ππ«ππ²πππ―ππ¨π§ππ.ππ π¦
"I reckon it will take three or four days of fuss. Oh, if only my sister were here!"
Xia Hongyao lamented, "Oh, the great detective Xia Daye falls unfulfilled, collapsing halfway!"
"What nonsensical talk!"
Lin Baici was amused by the ponytailed personβs choice of words.
For half of the night, Lin Baici listened to Xia Hongyaoβs complaints, while Kim Myungjin and Hua Yue Yu missed their chance to double team Lin Baici.
Early the next day, Xia Hongyao hurried off to the bureau, urging the leaders to quickly assemble a Dragon-level team to conquer the auction Godβs ruins.
During breakfast, Kim Myungjin set aside his worries and hummed a tune while slicing a fruit platter for Lin Baici.
"If we could send the nanny away, we could enjoy a few days of a sweet holiday."
Kim Myungjin was pondering an excuse, but unfortunately, this wasnβt Goryeo; otherwise, he could simply give orders.
"Huh?"
Hua Yue Yu blinked, "Thatβs not possible, with Red Medicineβs enthusiasm, sheβll probably soon raise a team!"
"Youβre overthinking it!"
Kim Myungjin smiled confidently, "If Xia Hongmian were here, that would be more likely, given her powerful status and influence, thatβs real bargaining power!"
"But sheβs entered Godβs ruins!"
"Though Iβm not very familiar with the structure of the Jiuzhou Security Bureau, within any organization, there are bound to be factions, and even those at Dragon Level themselves are leaders, representing a groupβs interests."
"If itβs a one-time collaboration to purify a common Godβs ruins, thatβs one thing. But this time, itβs a super dangerous Godβs ruins with gods gathered, wouldnβt anyone have thoughts about it?"
Since Hua Yue Yu is from Jiuzhou, Kim Myungjin was considerate of her feelings and didnβt spell it out completely.
Even if the leadership above is motivated and plans to form a Dragon-level team, would the Dragon-level members below have ideas?
Why should I go and not he?
How are the spoils divided?
Is it to form a big team, or do we each lead our own?
If itβs leading individually, it requires gathering members for their personal teams.
Thinking deeper, Qin Shanwei is competing with Xia Hongmian for the position of Director General of the Jiuzhou Security Bureau, after hitting a wall at Qin Palace with diminishing hopes. Now, with unexpected turbulence in Haijing, would Qin Shanweiβs faction utilize their influence to persuade some Dragon Wings to slow down their entry into the auction Godβs ruins, thus adding chaos for Xia Hongmian?
Moreover, the Directors of the three branches in Xijing, Guangdong Capital, and Tiandu Prefecture originally had little chance of vying for Director General, but what if both Qin Shanwei and Xia Hongmian falter?
Xia Hongyao believes that with the emergence of Godβs ruins, everyone should work together to purify it as soon as possible, but in reality, this idea is very immature.
Everyone is an adult and will prioritize their own interests.
In fact, the next night, Xia Hongyao returns, dragging Lin Baici to Dragon and Beauty Bar to drown her sorrows in drink.
Clearly, someone knowledgeable has analyzed the situation for her.
"You should drink less!"
Lin Baici advised.
Though for Xia Hongyao, drinking alcohol is like drinking water, not harmful to her health, this kind of binge drinking isnβt good.
"Iβd feel terrible if I donβt get drunk!"
Xia Hongyao said, feeling aggrieved.
"... "
Seeing the pitiful look in the ponytailβs eyes, Lin Baici sighed; well then, donβt try persuading her, accompany her until they return drunk.
With such a large Godβs ruins emerging in Haijing, everyone in the inner circle is curious about the progress, so naturally, theyβve come to Nangong Shuβs bar to gather news, resulting in a surge of visitors these days.
Lin Baiciβs table, with handsome men and beautiful women, is outstanding even among God Hunters, often attracting people over to chat.
"Handsome guy, this is for you!"
A woman with wavy hair approached, handing Lin Baici a bottle of red wine, "Where do you hang out?"
"Jiuzhou Security Bureau!"
Lin Baici replied casually, not wanting to deal with this woman, stood up, "Hongyao, Iβm heading to the restroom!"
Using the name Hongyao, Lin Baici made it clear for this woman to back off.
As expected, she clearly recognized the name, glanced at Xia Hongyaoβs face, then her Xiong Da, the woman chuckled awkwardly.
"You wouldnβt happen to be Lin Longyi, would you?"
The woman scrutinized Lin Baici, "Iβve heard that heβs very young!"
The woman thought this person shouldnβt be the Haijing god of forest, as he seemed too young.
Itβs known that the God Hunter profession relies on the ongoing exploration of Godβs ruins to accumulate experience. Lin Baici being so young probably hasnβt purified much pollution, how would he accumulate?
Lin Baici smiled and turned away.
"Do you think my Oppa lacks girlfriends?"
Kim Myungjin was speechless; arenβt you aware of your own level?
Look at me, the Little Merperson, and Gu Qingqiuβs look, yet you dared strike up a conversation with Oppa?
Who gave you the courage?
"If youβre Lin Longyiβs fan, I could have him sign an autograph for you later!"
Gu Qingqiu, with crossed legs, sipped a glass of red wine, "Though heβs not in a good mood, he might refuse."
Even in the bar, she didnβt remove the wide-brim fishermanβs hat from her head, so the woman couldnβt see Gu Qingqiuβs face, but she understood the undertones.
They were politely suggesting she leave.
"Sorry to interrupt!"
The woman placed down the red wine and left.
The aura of the fisherman-hat woman was quite striking, giving her a sense of strong pressure, thus she backed off.
