Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 76: Chapter 75 Accident_1

Task complete!

Fu Qian nodded in satisfaction and glanced back at Su Gao.

This person was almost the only one in the room who dared to look up at him.

When he had grabbed her arm just now, he could hardly feel a human body beneath the clothes.

Realizing something, the corner of her mouth slightly curled up as she flashed an awkward smile at Fu Qian.

[Task accomplished, Containment of No. 2-103 successful]

The scenery before his eyes dissolved swiftly, and Fu Qian found himself back in the warehouse, leisurely listening to the mission summary.

[Evaluation: Blasphemer]

[The evil omen dissipated, the crisis obfuscated.

Mysterious beings require the power of laws to manifest in the world, and those responding to the seeds of the law are the evil omen.

As an incredible force, the law grows with the nourishment of sacrifices. Of course, even in its infancy, it still possesses the power of a high status, safeguarding its own path to growth.

Unfortunately, when all these paths were cut off, the seeds of the law no longer had time to wait.

Ultimately, it had no choice but to make a desperate move, depleting its form and deeply integrating with the evil omen. Yet, even so, it fell to the despicable deceit.

Congratulations on turning the impossible into possible and rescuing an ancient town.

Although your method of killing was excessively shocking, Su Gao, the Executioner Yan, frightened everyone present and single-handedly wrote the accident report. You didn’t draw much attention.]

[Kills: None]

[Special kills: Evil Omen (Mercury-Rule Form)]

[Rewards: SAN Points +20; Inspiration +5]

[Special kill reward: Decree Residue]

[Current SAN Points: 60, current Inspiration: 26]

[Play event recap?]

SAN Points have finally recovered a bit!

Decree Residue, what is that?

Fu Qian checked his gains from this trip, quickly turning to the rewards section.

[Decree Residue: Skill, fragments forged from the patterns of woven laws, containing the remnants of a special form of power. Once activated, it allows the glory of the laws to shine through you anew]

[Chaotic fragments, the power barely remains save for the visual effects]

Laws?

Seeing this, Fu Qian regained some spirit, naturally thinking of those flying heads everywhere.

But the last sentence… Are you joking with me?

Does it mean this skill only has visual effects now? Turn it on to appear impressive and cool?

Fu Qian’s brows furrowed as he tried to activate the skill.

A barely perceptible golden pattern flashed away in an instant.

Isn’t this visual effect far too inferior compared to what Huang Yuanchang had on him?

Although a glint of gold flashed just now, his was so bright it could nearly blind someone.

Truly deserving of the name ‘residue’!

Could it be that I struck too harshly in the end, pulverizing it too much?

Indeed, having ‘mercy’ makes sense.

Oh well, if it’s a useless skill, then so be it. Today’s accomplishments are still quite good.

Fu Qian has always been someone who takes things in stride. With ‘residue’ in its own name, what more can one expect?

[Current authority has been promoted]

After reviewing his rewards, Fu Qian was preparing to clock off and rest when an unfamiliar prompt appeared out of nowhere.

Authority promoted? It must refer to the warehouse privileges.

Is this a promotion and a raise?

[You can now access all synchronized items at any time]

Could all the items that had been synchronized be the ones he had contained before?

Fu Qian thought for a moment but didn’t rush to remove his work badge; instead, he continued along the shelves.

He had already checked before, and each silver-white box on the shelves bore a number, the format of which was identical to those he had encountered during containment.

However, these boxes were all tightly sealed and could not be opened.

What was the number for Evil Omen Must Die again?

Recalling the content from before, Fu Qian quickly found the box numbered[2-103].

Looking at the silver-white cube with not a single gap, Fu Qian thought for a moment and tried placing his hand on it.

Without a sound, the cube’s lid slowly opened to both sides, revealing its contents.

Fu Qian saw the true face of Evil Omen Must Die for the first time.

The box contained an irregular slab of stone resembling a meteorite, which looked like a miniature stele.

The stone slab was covered in high-temperature melting traces, and its edges were overgrown with mysterious patterns like green moss,

This is…

Drawing closer, Fu Qian discovered that the slab was etched with dense text, some deep, some faint, most of it blurred, with only the bottom part remaining clear.

“Mystical Hunter Fu Qian appeared in the restaurant, searching for traces of the Evil Omen.”

“At the same time, the talisman that Ryu Xing had drawn on his wife Geng Yue’s neck malfunctioned unexpectedly, a minor hidden flaw causing it to activate prematurely, resulting in Geng Yue’s death before her lover arrived, attracting the attention of a passing Night Watchman.”

…

“Even after witnessing the homicide right before his eyes, Fu Qian showed no hesitation and chose to leave the restaurant immediately; the Night Watchman arrived a moment too late to stop him.”

“Hidden in the Huang Family Estate, Huang Yuanchang suddenly couldn’t contain his urge to kill and decided to advance his plan.”

“Huang Haoxin and his young lover were sound asleep, completely unguarded against the intruder, Huang Yuanchang.”

…

“Fu Qian headed straight for the Huang Family Estate, but he was a step too late and just missed Huang Yuanchang, who had left early.”

“Given his mysterious origins, the Huang clan would not believe Fu Qian, and the residence of Huang Haoxin was quite secluded, often taking the servants a long time to notice a bloodbath happening there.”

…

“Fu Qian showed extreme hostility, bursting into the Huang Family Estate and heading straight for Huang Haoxin’s residence, where he found the bodies.”

“Fortunately, the guards were very diligent and wasted no time in sounding the alarm; Fu Qian, who had just discovered the bodies, was surrounded by the Huang clan members, which inevitably delayed his pursuit.”

…

“Unexpectedly, Fu Qian didn’t attempt to explain and instead chose to transform into the likeness of Huang Yuanchang. Unfortunately, since he had only seen a photograph, his transformation wasn’t perfect.”

“Incredibly, the crude mask that Fu Qian casually put on his face had an unexpected effect; the Huang clan members never suspected the face underneath was fake, and to avoid the threat of the madman, they decided to withdraw all clan members back to the estate.”

“Although unsure, Huang Leji still chose to report Fu Qian as the Evil Omen to the Night Watchmen, hoping to utilize their power to eliminate him.”

“Executioner Yan, Su Gao, happened to be operating nearby and received Huang’s notification immediately.”

“Fu Qian wasn’t careful when fleeing and was quickly located by Su Gao, who arrived just in time to witness Fu Qian committing murder.”

“Unbelievably, Su Gao showed an utterly nonsensical trust in Fu Qian and followed his orders exactly, significantly reducing Huang Yuanchang’s freedom to move.”

“Sensing danger, Huang Yuanchang abandoned his intention to go… Sensing danger, Huang Yuanchang abandoned his intention to go… Sensing danger, Huang Yuanchang went… and succeeded in killing Ryu Xing…”

“Aside from the heavily guarded Huang Family Estate, all Transcendents in Xi Yuan City were gathered at the Night Watchmen Base; the sacrifice was not yet complete, and Huang Yuanchang, despite trying hard to endure, still couldn’t control his urge to kill.”

…

“Faced with a no-win situation, the Seed of Law inside Huang Yuanchang was forced to degrade into form.”

A series of fine and mysterious mercury-colored patterns.

“But that’s okay, as long as enough Transcendents are sacrificed, there is still hope for the Law to be reforged.”

“Huang Yuanchang received protection from the Mercury-Rule, and any being within a five-meter radius of him would be decapitated.”

…

“Incredibly, Fu Qian found a loophole in the Law at an unimaginable speed.”

“With the death of Huang Yuanchang, the Law in his mind completely shattered and dissipated, losing the possibility of taking form.”

A series of chaotic golden patterns, with the stone below covered in cracks.

“The Golden Law ‘Living Beings May Gaze Upon Divine Beings’ failed to condense.”
