Chapter 679: Eternal City

Even though he had no memory of it, thankfully, Longjing Tea found his case notebook. After a quick skim, he guessed that the person who had just called him was probably Captain John.

Longjing Teas current characters t.i.tle was Lieutenant, and he also served as the Special Magic Consultant for Angus City.

Angus City.

Is it that Angus from Scotland?

Longjing Tea discovered something familiar to him.

What surprised him even more was finding an unusual service pistol. The gun looked somewhat like a standard police handgun but had no magazine and, oddly, three safeties.

He casually opened the first latch of the safe. A faint buzzing vibration emanated as his palm touched the spot where the guns handle was. The crystal on the side of the gun handle emitted a pulsating red glow.

Suddenly, Longjing Tea realized something.

He s.h.i.+fted it to his left hand and soon discovered that what he carried activated independently. As the curse patterns emerged, the gun handle also displayed black curse markings, intertwining with the reverse tree pattern on Longjing Teas backhand.

The crystal quickly recharged and turned green.

But just in case, Longjing Tea aimed it at the flowerpot in the corner and pulled the trigger.

A faint green brilliance shot out, smas.h.i.+ng the flowerpot into pieces.

Its not fully automatic. I cant fire it continuously when I hold the trigger. It isnt too loud with the noise level of a childrens toy pistol. However, its power is roughly the level of a small-caliber firearm.

Is this the wizard weapon of this era?

The consumption rate is quite low.

Longjing Tea didnt even feel any drain on his curse energy.

He fired the gun at the wall again.

Then, he saw a hole the size of a pinky finger in the wall.

Is it a piercing wound rather than a blast injury?

Longjing Tea soon had a plan in mind.

Instead of continuing the experiment, he put the gun in the gun pouch on his waist and went out.

Although there were many changes, he recognized at a glance that this was the same style as the giant city he saw before entering the depths of the underground world. However, there werent any giants among the pa.s.sersby; they were all humans of roughly his height.

In other words, were still in the Eternal Dukeom.

Lost in thought, Longjing Tea asked for directions as he walked briskly. He soon arrived at the Angus City Police Station.

The police station was just a short distance from his home, only two streets away.

Youre late, Longjing Tea! A stern-faced, portly middle-aged man with a trim beard sat on the sofa, raising his voice at him, Wheres Joe? Bobby! Take Longjing Tea to the scene quickly and fill him in on the situation as you go!

He should be Captain John.

Longjing Tea quickly a.n.a.lyzed the situation.

But why cant I go directly to the scene instead of arriving at the police station?

He pondered in his heart.

But Longjing Tea soon found out why a middle-aged man with blonde hair hopped onto a motorcycle. He sat in the sidecar on the left, while on the right was a short man holding a gun.

The intended design is likely so that I can draw my gun and get off the bike quickly at any time.

Undoubtedly, this is a different world from the Mist Continent I know. Its probably another world or another era

.

While there are some differences, there are still some similarities

To Longjing Teas ears, at least, the blonde-haired man had a pretty distinct Denizoya accent.

I see.

The situation was not too complicated, and Longjing Tea quickly grasped it.

Someone was attacked on the roadit was a high-ranking transcender of at least [condensation] level, and the person who was attacked was an ordinary person.

But the strange thing was that the attacker didnt kill the victim. Otherwise, the person being attacked would have died long ago.

Logically speaking, since they didnt resort to lethal force or kidnap the victim, it probably meant the situation wasnt too serious.

However, a girl was frightened and called the police on the spot. After all, it was a violent incident involving a high-level transcender. The Angus City Police Department had to respond as soon as possible.

At that time, Longjing Tea was curious and asked another question.

What if its just a violent incident caused by a fight between regular people?

If we can handle it, of course, well arrest them, the short man named Bobby replied in a somewhat shrill voice, shrugging. The situation just hasnt escalated enough to call for backup All we can do is drive them off.

What about Captain John?

How can we trouble Captain on this? What if it is really dangerous?

So you also know that it may be dangerous?

Longjing Tea complained in his heart.

Before long, the motorcycle made its way to the outskirts.

Focused and alert, Longjing Tea drew that peculiar gun with his left hand.

He was ready to chant his Edict Spell anytime.

But he soon saw the scene

Um?

Rather than calling it an attack, it was more like a beating.

An extremely robust, tall baldy was beating up a slender, short, white-haired youth.

Each punch drew blood there was already a terrifying pool of it on the ground. Just the amount of blood could fill half a bathtub, yet the white-haired young man was still staggering but hadnt fallen.

Are you sure the victim is an ordinary person?

Such a thought came to Longjing Teas mind.

To Longjing Tea, this youth, who couldnt be killed no matter how many punches were hurled at him, was much more terrifying than that burly man.

Because the moment he saw that burly man, he recognized his ident.i.ty.

Longjing Tea lazily shouted, Hey.

Hearing this, the burly man turned around.

He raised his right hand, fingers together in a karate-chop gesture, and made a slash gesture toward them.

The moonlight-like [Qi] was sent over.

The terrifying pure moonlight struck instantly.

Its power was enough to cut them in half.

The two officers were too terrified to speak they didnt even draw their guns.

However, the moment the sword energy approached them, the sword energy suddenly distorted toward the middle. The tall, muscular man silently appeared in front of them.

Holding one ear of each person, he slammed their temples together. Blood and brain matter burst forth from their foreheads.

The two police officers lost consciousness and pa.s.sed out completely.

Skull Splitter.

The burly man took a deep breath, lowered his head, and closed his eyes. He said in a deep voice.

Shut up. Longjing Tea complained, Are you stupid? They are dead.

Dont worry about that. Im trying to get them unconscious as quickly as possible, or well have to fight. Delicious Wind Goose looked at Longjing Tea, You work in the police station, and I dont know your address. Its not easy to find you.

How do you know I work for the police? Longjing Tea frowned slightly, Have you finished your main quest?

Thats right.

Delicious Wind Goose nodded and said in a deep voice, Actually, this is at least the third life In the first two lives, when you are all dead, I will return to the day at 2:30 in the afternoon.

And except for meor maybe, except for the last person who died, no one else will retain their memories. Thats why I said this may be at least the third life.

But theres no need for us to deceive each other. If no one came forward before the second loop saying they remembered the previous loop, it might only be the third loop.

Doves voice sounded slowly, and a serval came out of the shadows.

Immediately after, the one-eyed girl, Elle, came out from the other side.

It was me who called the police. Elle reached out her hand to Longjing Tea nervously and awkwardly, Hi, h.e.l.lo

Ah

, h.e.l.lo, Miss Elle. Ive heard of you. Longjing Tea shook hands with Elle in a friendly manner.

If Elle is here too

Thinking of this, Longjing Tea looked at the white-haired youth who couldnt be punched to death.

Who is this? He asked.

Didnt you guess it already? Delicious Wind Goose asked back.

Dove replied, The Venerated Skeleton. This child is the Venerated Skeleton.

Iwho am I?

The white-haired young man, who was beaten until blood covered the ground, looked up, staring at everyone with a bewildered expression.

What the h.e.l.l is going on here? Longjing Tea took a deep breath and asked again.

Were trapped. Delicious Wind Goose replied, Theres something wrong with this city.

If you want me to explain what is wrong

At this moment, the two police officers the police officers whose brains were beaten out, woke up leisurely.

They looked at Delicious Wind Goose, but there was no hostility.

It wasnt that the police officers were holding back; rather, it seemed as if they had never been attacked.

Police Officer Bobby sighed in relief, You guys stop fighting? Thats good.

Well, the conflict has been resolved. Delicious Wind Goose added. As he spoke, he patted Longjing Tea on the shoulder.

Catching on immediately, Longjing Tea added, Ill stay a bit longer to doc.u.ment the details of the case. You all can head back first.

Alright, then well head back first.

What the h.e.l.l is going on here? Longjing Tea took a deep breath and asked, What did I say in the previous life?

Everyone here could only deal with the [missions]. Just like the mission that the two police officers received should be stop the fight, then after the fight was over, they would end the mission and return. This is a possibility you mentioned.

The fact that I attacked them was the test proposed by you in the previous life. The result is just as you expected attack them before the fight is over, and then end the battle before they wake up. The mission is completed. The return command will overwrite the counterattack command, so the action will be ignored. However, if we continue to attack them now, they will immediately launch a counterattack.

Delicious Wind Goose replied, And no one will die anyway. But they dont realize it at all Its like

Its like an NPC who operates rigidly. Longjing Tea took a deep breath.

At this moment, he suddenly heard the voice of the Venerated Skeleton in his ear.

But this time, instead of Im listening, it was a complete sentence.

To ensure that something can be remembered, people can always die a little more

The next moment, the main mission panel popped up before him.

[Main mission: Restart]

[Find the unforgotten thing.]

[Find the person who is not in the dream.]

[Confirm the reset mechanism.]
