First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!

Lu Ding pulled out his phone, seeing the caller ID showing Zhan Tingzhou.

He answered the call.

Opened with: ”Hello?”

BAM!!!!

Mu Baiying, who had been kneeling dead with a short blade through her head, instantly exploded.

Cut finer than minced meat by the [Way of the Jinche].

Finishing moves were an art form.

Lu Ding would never forget that.

Zhan Tingzhou’s voice came from the other end of the phone.”Lu Ding!! You need to be careful, I heard you went to the Tai Island Consulate in Path of Dry Bones! There are folk rumors in our area that Saika Maki from the Tai Island Consulate in Path of Dry Bones is secretly capturing people for human experimentation!”

”Don’t know what exactly she’s researching.”

Just moments before, after Zhan Tingzhou had basically handled the Zhao Family matters in Xiankong Town.

He sent a communication request to Fu Xinghe, asking about how to handle subsequent details.

After all, he had just joined the 749 Bureau, and although he had dealings with Great Han’s 749 personnel in his previous life.

But having seen it didn’t mean he could do it himself.

Lu Ding could operate reasonably and legally but not compliantly, Zhan Tingzhou couldn’t.

Some things came with privilege—others could act that way, but if he did the same, he might die without knowing how.

What if higher-ups from 749 came down later for settling accounts after the fact?

So he needed to be cautious.

During their communication, because Zhan Tingzhou’s progress in refining and blending colors had significantly improved.

He unconsciously asked about Lu Ding.

Since Lu Ding had given prior instructions that if Zhan Tingzhou asked, Fu Xinghe should truthfully report his situation.

After all, he was a reincarnator.

He needed to be utilized.

What if he could be useful again?

And indeed.

Upon learning that Lu Ding had gone to the Tai Island Consulate in Path of Dry Bones.

Zhan Tingzhou was completely stunned.

No way...

How was this happening everywhere?

Hadn’t they just fought in Xiankong Town, why was he going to Path of Dry Bones now?

Simultaneously, he remembered from his previous life about Saika Maki, the Consul General of the Tai Island Consulate in Path of Dry Bones, being exposed for conducting human experiments and researching forbidden techniques.

It shouldn’t have been exposed originally.

But who could have guessed that Bai Hemen and Huangfu Lingyun were among the first batch sent for cleanup.

Both had come up from the Third Circle, naturally holding grudges against the Tai Island nation.

Later, through various targeted pressures, they forced Saika Maki into a corner, which led to the exposure.

So, after learning that Lu Ding had gone to the Tai Island Consulate in Path of Dry Bones, Zhan Tingzhou hurriedly made this call.

The words ’human experimentation’ came out.

Plus, this was the Tai Island Consulate.

Buff stacks maxed out.

Lu Ding instantly became somewhat triggered.

His gaze lifted, looking levelly at the building ahead, as if piercing through reinforced concrete, directly locking onto Saika Maki and Sasaki.

Both felt a chill run down their spines.

Like weak creatures in nature being targeted by their natural predator.

This feeling made Sasaki take a step back.

Having witnessed the previous battle firsthand, his emotions were now somewhat out of control.

Too strong!!

Too strong, completely beyond what words could describe!!!

”I told you!! I said let me leave, don’t provoke him, don’t provoke him!!!”

”That investigator from Path of Dry Bones 749 you called through whatever damn public report hotline was no match for him at all!!”

”You don’t know, you don’t know how terrifying he is!!!”

”You have no idea about his dominance in the Third Circle!!!”

”Do you think Lu Ding is like ordinary geniuses who would fade into mediocrity when moving to broader horizons?”

”No!!!!”

Sasaki screamed with all his might.

He clearly had a chance to escape.

But Saika Maki had stopped him.

Of course, this was also his fault for clinging to a sliver of hope.

But illusions would eventually be crushed by reality.

Sasaki was so agitated that he was spitting while shouting: ”Broader horizons would only give him more opportunities!”

”Give Great Han some time with him, and he’ll repay Great Han with miracles!!”

”He’s not just a genius, he’s a monster, and he has absolute drive and diligence!!”

”You’ve doomed me!!”

Sasaki gasped for breath heavily, without any hesitation, immediately turned and ran.

He couldn’t stay in this place any longer.

Lu Ding was coming for him, and with Lu Ding’s current combat power, Sasaki knew he had absolutely no chance of survival.

He wasn’t playing this game anymore!!

Facing Sasaki’s roar, Saika Maki smiled instead of getting angry.

Looking at his fleeing figure.

Saika Maki covered her mouth with a light laugh, softly saying: ”That does sound terrifying.”

”But facing such a terrifying enemy, even if I don’t pursue him killing so many Qi Refiners from the consulate, what if he pursues me for harboring his enemy?”

As she spoke.

Saika Maki flicked her finger, sending a blood thread flying that with a bang, directly entered through Sasaki’s back and exited through his chest.

The blood thread continuously wrapped around his body, binding him tightly.

Saika Maki slowly walked forward.

”So, I have no choice but to hand you over to him.”

Originally, Saika Maki had thought about using a dog-eat-dog strategy, calling for Path of Dry Bones 749 support to make Lu Ding conflict with Path of Dry Bones 749 investigators.

Thereby killing Path of Dry Bones investigators.

Creating a situation with fatalities that would be difficult to resolve.

According to her thinking, as a 749 investigator, facing fellow investigators as colleagues, no matter what, Lu Ding wouldn’t be so decisive.

Or, ordinary investigators would be killed outright.

After all, Lu Ding’s nickname was Corpse-Shattering Taishui.

But facing a talented senior investigator from Path of Dry Bones 749, he should have some restraint and considerations, right?

But what was the result?

Killed just the same.

One encounter, all dead, without any hesitation at all.

The exaggerated combat power, and the absolutely unyielding mentality—even when facing someone as attractive as Mu Baiying, he definitely wouldn’t hold back—made Saika Maki somewhat headache for a moment.

This kind of person was clearly immune to both soft and hard approaches, didn’t distinguish between men and women, killed old and young alike.

She could only stroke his fur in the right direction.

First preserve her own life, conceal her own strength, wait for more powerful Path of Dry Bones 749 investigators to arrive.

Or the director of Path of Dry Bones 749.

So, no choice.

Saika Maki could only offer up her ’old friend’ Sasaki.

After all, Lu Ding had come specifically for Sasaki.

Sasaki lay on the ground, knowing the answer in his heart, but still somewhat unwilling to accept it, asking: ”Sa... Miss Maki, what are you doing!?”

”We’re friends!!”

Saika Maki formed an orchid gesture with her fingers, straightening the blood thread, tightening the restraints on Sasaki’s body.

”Correct, we are indeed friends, and we’ve been friends for many years too. As friends, how could you bring such a powerful enemy to my place?”

”Wouldn’t you agree, Grand Duke Lu?”

As she said this, the building’s exterior wall gradually disintegrated, and Lu Ding stepped through the air approaching.

Bricks and concrete dispersed by the [Qi of the Ticket Wind] spread flat beneath his feet, supporting his steps.

Saika Maki moved aside, slightly bowing.

”Consul General of the Tai Island Consulate in Path of Dry Bones, greetings to Grand Duke Lu.”

Looking up, her facial expression carried no other emotions, full of solemnity and respect.
