56: Chapter 27: Promotion, the 2nd Awakening!
When darkness completely fell, Starfire was taken away for psychological counseling to prevent any psychological trauma.
Many processors were still investigating the cause of this uncontrolled incident.
Ma Da was a Second Awakening Spiritual Ability User and had been a processor for several years, his experience was considerable.
Usually, he did not have any so-called ‘inner demons’, nor was there a need for him to undergo a promotion.
Yet, he suddenly contorted during an operation.
While the authorities were simultaneously saddened by this, they also maintained absolute vigilance.
Groups of processors with various tracking and investigative abilities rushed to the scene, hoping to find clues that would lead them to the real culprit.
If one were to look down from the high altitudes of Giant City, they would see nurous figures moving at speeds, in the sky, incomprehensible to ordinary people during the night.
anwhile, the three Wild Spirit Ability Users caught during the logistics team’s ‘team-building’ were also being closely guarded and interrogated by the authorities.
They were Wild Spirit Ability Users from different city districts who had managed to find each other precisely within Giant City and, despite the risk, attempted to ambush a processor.
Clearly, soone was coordinating them, and the authorities needed to trace the vines to find this connector to preemptively eliminate risks for Giant City.
From the current intelligence, the opposing party’s abilities were very eerie.
It was said they possessed so mysterious thod of communication.
They could communicate instantly, even directly contacting Spirit Ability Users from the sa camp across several Giant Cities.
So traded or issued tasks therein, with the completers receiving Magic Potion Material or Spiritual Ability Equipnt.
After each ‘contact,’ the items were delivered to the other party through so unknown thod.
This made them very well-hidden, and even if the Giant Cities noticed, it was difficult to eradicate them entirely.
The ergence of this mysterious organization and the sudden distortion of a processor displayed an oppressive feeling of a storm brewing, causing the higher-ups in the Processing Departnt to beco quite somber.
Both issues were not to be underestimated and required vigilant care.
At that mont, a ssage was reported to the headquarters.
“The Night General…
the young guy with the Mimicry Overlord Face?
He’s getting promoted already?” An elderly man with white hair expressed his astonishnt, “So soon?
How long has he been with the Processing Departnt?”
“Just about a month, all things considered,” an elderly woman responded.
“After all, he has been through nurous battles, even shattered Taboo Items, and faced an unknown level of Ghost Immortal directly.
We thought he would need another month, but it turns out he could promote so soon.
It’s probably a shift in his mindset allowing the Soul Well to extend.”
“That’s good, although it’s unclear what lies behind him, for now, he seems to have no malice towards humans,” the old man said.
“If we could glimpse at that entity’s figure when the Night General breaks through, that would be even better.”
“At that ti, we only detected the disappearance of the Ghost Immortal’s aura, but we didn’t see that entity’s figure.
Such a pity…”
…
On the other side, Li Yelai was feeling the changes in his Soul Well, confirming a change in his mindset.
His Soul Well began to extend, continuing to explore further into the Void Realm.
This was a sign of an impending Second Awakening.
Thus, he calmly stated, “I am about to be promoted.”
He beca the fastest-promoted processor among the ten or so newcors in the four divisions of No.3 Border City.
If Li Yunyan were present, she would probably have exclaid,
“Today I enter the Land Immortal Realm!”
For safety, Cheese said softly with a slight change in expression, “Congratulations.”
Then he promptly put Li Yelai into the car and imdiately notified Yang Chen.
When the two arrived at the division, Yang Chen was already waiting at the entrance.
Yang Chen did not seem surprised by Li Yelai’s rapid promotion.
After observing Li Yelai for a while, he nodded and said, “You are indeed about to be promoted.
This is your first promotion.
Before you successfully promote, be cautious of the infiltration of Void Realm forces and potential disturbances by Void Realm Creatures.
Cheese, myself, and the other teammates will all be guarding you.”
The promotion ceremony was dangerous, especially since encountering a disturbance by Void Realm Creatures during the promotion was akin to a life and death situation.
For Void Realm Creatures wanted to co to the Physical World, apart from so bloody Evil Ceremony, there was another way: to occupy the body of a Spirit Ability User!
A perfectly compatible body was an irresistible temptation for Void Realm Creatures.
On the Processing Departnt’s forum, one could find a few cases.
It was said that a Void Realm Creature with notable intelligence, upon discovering a body that highly matched its own, comnced an attack on a Spirit Ability User.
After several failures, it turned its sights to the Spirit Ability User’s children and descendants.
Persistently interfering, it attempted to seize a body.
This caused a high rate of loss of control among the family mbers who were Spirit Ability Users.
And since Void Realm Creatures were indestructible, killing their physical bodies only banished them back to the Void Realm.
They had beco a nightmare for that family.
This was the troubleso nature of Void Realm Creatures.
Of course, Low Awakening Spirit Ability Users generally did not attract the attention of Void Realm Creatures; for soone at Li Yelai’s level, encountering a Void Realm Creature was unlikely.
“If I’m really unlucky and do encounter a Void Realm Creature, how should I deal with it?” Li Yelai considered his luck, feeling that encountering a Void Realm Creature was not impossible.
“After a Spirit Ability User opens their Soul Well, they actually leave their projection in the Void Realm through the Soul Well,” Yang Chen explained as he walked Li Yelai and Cheese into the division, “The more awakenings you undergo, the larger your projection in the Void Realm will be.”
