Chapter 38 Apocalypse
A woman in business attire is sitting behind a desk and seems to be writing something.
The doorbell rang, the woman whispered "come in", put her hand under the table, and lightly touched the trigger with her finger.
The young man walked in from outside, holding a thick stack of documents.
The woman looked at the young man's face. He was about seventeen or eighteen years old, handsome and gentle, with light dark circles under his eyes, looking like a student.
"Hello, my name is Shen Bai..." He took out the gray invitation and handed it to the woman.
"Elevator No. 5" The woman checked and let Shen Bai in.
Today is March 19th. No. 546 Lanhua Street is a twenty-story retro hotel with towering sharp corners and stone pillars hugged by three people.
Before Shen Bai came, he checked that the name of this hotel was "Blue Rose Hotel". You can book rooms online. It seemed like a normal place for consumption by the middle class.
And the front desk just now was quite beautiful.
Shen Bai thought as he walked into the No. 5 elevator. After the elevator door closed, he froze inside.
——No one told him which floor he had to go to!
However, after only a few seconds, the elevator started running by itself. After a slight feeling of weightlessness, the elevator door opened.
Outside the door was a small, narrow office. The walls were wrapped in unknown leather. It was extremely expensive. Behind the red wooden desk that took up half of the space, the back of the boss's chair was facing him, with no intention of turning around.
Shen Bai took a deep breath, stood in front of his desk, and said respectfully:
"Sir, I'm Shen Bai, I'm here to report."
"..."
"Sir? I received an invitation letter saying that I can join the Night Watch..."
"..."
"Well, sir, I joined the night watchman to watch the dawn for mankind and clean up the monsters in the night..."
"Pfft hahahaha!"
Crazy and crazy laughter rang out, Qiao Mianmian turned around and wiped away her tears:
"Boy, I can't tell, but you're pretty good at it."
Shen Bai's mind was filled with dark thoughts, has this woman always been so unruly?
Fortunately, Qiao Mianmian laughed for a while and then calmed down. After rummaging around on her desk, she took out a large pile of documents and threw them to Shen Bai:
"After signing everything, ask me if you don't understand."
Shen Bai had the tragic feeling of entering a den of thieves, but at this point, he could only honestly sign his name after each clause.
These documents are still in the typical Academy of Science style, with every detail taken into consideration. Shen Bai even saw a line about "how to prove your identity to the federal security office when you are taken to prison."
It took ten minutes for Shen Bai to finish signing the document. He looked at Qiao Mianmian who was playing with the pen with his nose, frowned and said:
"Qiao...teacher, why are you here?"
"I am an apocalypse. Although I am a genius researcher, as the saying goes, reuse waste... you should make the best use of waste."
Qiao Mianmian shrugged:
"No matter what level or ability the Apocalypse is, their combat power will be blessed, so I was thrown here to be a night watchman... Oh, by the way, I will be your superior from now on, and all your tasks will be carried out by I'll make arrangements for you."
Shen Bai suddenly felt that his future as a night watchman was slim.
For such an unreliable boss, the possibility of dying in the line of duty is too high...
Qiao Mianmian saw what Shen Bai was thinking and gave him a reassuring look:
"Oh my, as my subordinate, if nothing else, your safety will be guaranteed. Even for that Creation Card, I won't let you do a fatal mission, and if it really comes to a critical moment..."
Her voice stopped suddenly, and then her figure disappeared, her hand resting on Shen Bai's back.
"So fast!" Shen Bai's pupils shrank sharply, sighing secretly that people cannot be judged by their appearance.
However, Qiao Mianmian shook her head:
"You might think that I am quite advanced in martial arts... but that's not the case. My vitality index is 13.6, and I can barely become a Bone Burning Realm warrior."
She pursed her lips towards the desk:
"Look what's on the boss's chair."
Shen Bai followed her line of sight and was startled.
There is a black button on the large boss chair.
He subconsciously touched his shoulder, and sure enough, one of the decorative buttons on it was missing.
"This is... is your ability as the Apocalypse?"
"Hey, you're awesome." Without any movement, Qiao Mianmian returned to the boss's chair, and the button appeared on Shen Bai's shoulder again.
"This is my ability, D-level [Unequal Exchange]. To put it simply, it is to exchange the space position between myself and another thing." Qiao Mianmian began to explain her ability to her only subordinate. :
"There are two triggering methods. The first is an object within my line of sight with a mass smaller than mine."
"The second method is for me to burn my own information on an object first, so that even if the object is not within my field of vision, I can still exchange spatial positions... but it also requires that the mass of the object is smaller than mine. "
Shen Bai was hoarse after hearing this, and understood Sister Mao'er's evaluation of this woman's ability as an apocalypse: "Although it is not strong, it is very interesting and has a wide range of applications."
——This is not just "interesting", this ability is so powerful that it can explode!
Whether fighting or escaping, or even in daily life, this ability is very useful.
However, this ability is only level D.
The Apocalypse is like this, a person who is unique from birth.
Shen Bai thought to himself, feeling a little sad, but he immediately thought of another question:
"Teacher Qiao, do you mean that if I encounter danger in the future, you will teleport here to save me?"
"Nonsense, you are my only subordinate!" Qiao Mianmian handed him a butterfly-shaped hairpin and continued:
"This is the "anchor" that is tainted with my aura. You will take it with you when you go on missions in the future. If you are in danger, call me and I will be there immediately!"
"...Teacher Qiao, I'm not looking down on you, but your vitality index is not much higher than mine. Aren't you afraid of buying one and getting one free?"
"Stupid." Qiao Mianmian rolled her eyes at him:
"Have you seen any scientist fighting with bare hands like a muscular barbarian? This is the year of the Federation, young man!"
"...Okay" Shen Bai felt warm in his heart and put away the hairpin.
Qiao Mianmian stood up, moved her neck, and then said:
"Let's go, there are still many things to do today... If you want to join the Night Watch system, you must first test your combat power, then take an oath, etc. You must also receive equipment, and the location of the temporary safe house must be told to you..."
"Yeah, okay, Teacher Qiao." Shen Bai behaved well:
"You can just call me Xiaobai, everyone else calls me that."
"Okay, Xiaobai Xiaobai, your butt is very white, hahaha!"
Shen Bai: "..."
Fortunately, Qiao Mianmian quickly became serious again:
"However, the following report is actually just a formality. Because of the Genesis Brand, I will treat you specially, so don't be nervous... You can think of a code name for yourself first."
"Code name?"
"Well, organizations like the Night Watch that focus on killing are all called by code names. Except for a few people, no one will know your true identity. Naturally, you can't use your real name here or when performing tasks."
"Then are there any requirements for this code name?"
"No, you can call yourself shit as you like."
Shen Bai automatically ignored the second half of the sentence, thought about it carefully, then smiled and said softly:
"I've thought about it."
"Oh, so fast? What's your code name?"
Chapter completed!
