Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 1839: Chapter 1834: Mastering the Momentum of the Situation

Sure enough, it was precise, greatly shortening the time as promised.

Fu Qian could naturally sense that Su Gao had completed her exorcism, and he even withdrew the Return Edict at the same time.

From the moment Luo Bu and the others rushed over to the short exchange now, although emotions were intense and fierce, and the plot reversed more than once, the time was actually brief.

Moreover, once the actions resumed, Su Gao’s demeanor was decisive and direct.

She opened her eyes and immediately displayed the stance of the person in charge, who was promoting herself, leading the entire situation.

And the effect was indeed quite good.

For instance, the three Academy instructors were visibly intimidated.

”Sir... Should we get Director Li here now?”

Like human but not human, like object but not object.

The Night Watchman before them, whose presence was extremely unique, gave Chang Mo a paradoxical urge to look more but also a fear to do so right from the first glance, thinking perhaps opening his eyes might help.

However, when truly stared down by those amber eyes, despite detecting no emotion in the tone, Chang Mo felt immense pressure, impulsively confirming a question without even asking for the name.

”No need, we’ll go find him.”

Su Gao merely shook her head, and her gaze landed on Luo Bu and the others the next moment.

”You all come along too.”

...

The night was deep and the lights shone brightly.

Even without the status of Night Watchman envoy, words from Demigod Su were always hard to refuse.

The two who made mistakes, along with the negligent Professor Chang Mo, ultimately expressed no opposition to the arrangement proposed.

In silence, the three dutifully led the way in the darkness, soon arriving at the Swordsmanship Department.

And it was evident that Li Weixuan, newly ascended as a demigod, did not rest well having encountered such a situation right after emerging.

Not only resting directly in the office space, Professor Chang Mo hadn’t even had time to call for someone; Li Weixuan had already come to greet them, allowing this peculiar group inside.

”Yuan Fang mentioned you would come over, so I kept the scene intact here, avoiding disturbances as much as possible.”

Undoubtedly, Professor Chang Mo promptly seized the opportunity to report the unexpected encounter with the Night Watchman emissary in the simplest terms.

The renowned composure he had developed showed now, with Li Weixuan, who had discreetly guessed some of this, maintaining a gentle expression throughout and after introducing himself to Su Gao, promptly explained the situation here, sparing no words.

Though saying the last sentence, he glanced at Luo Bu and the others.

”No worries, we have already investigated.”

Unfortunately, the directness still varied in degree.

After carefully listening, Su Gao nodded in agreement the next moment.

...

Already completed the investigation?

En route, the three including Chang Mo clearly speculated wildly about what Demigod Su was doing while standing there motionlessly.

Yet, the awe-inspiring demeanor warranted no questions from the hesitant.

Putting this together with the current explanation, it seemed to suddenly make sense.

She and Professor Fu found something over at the Benevolence Institute, affecting them as they conducted brief handling on site.

”The feather came from a High-level Extraordinary hiding under the Benevolence Institute to avoid the meteor, but was ultimately killed.”

Not needing them to voice out curiosities, Su Gao continued, sparing no unnecessary words.

A High-level Extraordinary hiding under the Benevolence Institute?

Given the shocking news, apart from Li Weixuan maintaining leadership demeanor, the rest couldn’t suppress exclamations.

Of course, if the former displayed such composure, information passed by Miss Liushuang could have contributed, allowing him early speculations in some areas.

”Can the specific identity be confirmed? I have repeatedly checked everyone at the Benevolence Institute, and none were harmed in the incident, same with other faculties.”

Li Weixuan decisively spoke, unsurprised to receive no surprises.

The Prison Angel Commander was immediately specified as non-Academy personnel.

”Currently not, does Professor Ah Kai have any insight in this aspect?”

Showing no signs of disappointment, after indicating the identity urgently needs verification, Su Gao glanced at Ah Kai.

Apparently, through previous listening, she already knew belonging to the Benevolence Institute’s elite.

”Sorry, I haven’t been part of it for long... Where did the person hide? We saw only feathers after descending and no other traces.”

Always informal, Professor Ah Kai evidently under immense pressure, thought rapidly for two seconds before cautiously shaking his head.

Even elaborated past mistakes again before Li Weixuan to affirm more details.

”Indeed under the Benevolence Institute, yet not just any random place, but a location with overlapping space-time.”

Feeling no offense from Ah Kai’s answer, realizing others carried curiosity, Su Gao genuinely responded.

”Or rather, a ship, the underground locale I extracted is an attempt to board a node.”

...

”A ship?”

Though strong as Li Weixuan, upon hearing this said at the end, finally showed emotion.

”Yes, extremely ancient, perhaps dating to the Mythic Era; does Benevolence Institute have a concept about this?”

By adding details, Su Gao once more glanced at Professor Ah Kai.

The main intention of discussing this appeared as reference for this miracle specialist.

”Professor Fu and I suspect currently that the ship’s mere presence at Benevolence Institute might result from a previously invoked miracle; anything comes to Professor Ah Kai’s mind?”

Once committing to controlling the situation, the pressure from Su Gao was astonishing, urging deeper thought.

”...Apologies, under current understanding, there’s really none, yet later I’ll strive to research documentation and converse with all instructors, trying to locate relevant information.”

Bringing forth a resolve from Professor Ah Kai, thinking hard yet regrettably apologizing again, promising earnest efforts.

”Thank you, I’ll also promptly report on the current state to confirm the identity of that High-level Extraordinary.”

Unnecessary emotional expressions aside, Su Gao directly organized follow-up tasks and turned her gaze towards Li Weixuan.

”Director Li, I need you and several instructors to support my work with Professor Fu later.”

Ah?

The last sentence inevitably focused everyone’s eyes on Fu Qian.

”Sir... Did Professor Fu just mention that he’s a temporary consultant?”

Despite feeling slightly untimely, looking at Heaven’s Commencement’s Temporary Leader with a mysterious smile, Chang Mo couldn’t help but recall this earlier remark.

”Exactly.”

Casting a glance on everyone’s face, Su Gao finally nodded and, utilizing the tone once used, uttered a previously used line.

”Mr. Fu is the Night Watchman Special Operations Consultant.”
