I'm a Pastor, what the hell is an Acute Gastroenteritis Outbreak Spell?!

Chapter 269: Chapter 205: Divine Position Guess? Night’s Watch Ghost Market!

“Lu Mengmeng!”

Zheng Cheng instantly noticed a familiar silhouette in the crowd. About a dozen people were hustling around the logistics personnel who were carrying the corpse, asking all sorts of questions.

Meng Yao was their colleague, whose lively nature and friendly demeanor had made her very popular in the special department.

And just like that, in the blink of an eye, her life was extinguished.

“Let’s go.”

Yao Zhixue said from behind: “It’s best for us to leave. Let Director Wu handle the aftermath.”

“Hmm.”

Zheng Cheng nodded. While the crowd’s attention was fixated on Meng Yao’s corpse, the trio slipped away from the Night Watch headquarters.

“Brother Cheng.”

Halfway, Veggie Chicken suddenly spoke, “Don’t you think there’s something off about Elder Wu…”

“You mean he’s too single-handed, or perhaps he’s too radical in how he deals with things?”

“Yes exactly!”

Veggie Chicken said urgently: “He’s been far too hasty!”

“Just after you helped them figure out the identity of the Fallen Ones, he proceeds without any plans and takes action right in front of us. Isn’t he endangering us by doing this?”

“If it were me, I’d have sent us away first, then gathered all of the Fallen Ones’ spies together for a final sweep.”

“At the very least, he could have acted discreetly and quietly, why…”

Zheng Cheng shook his head: “The spies who can infiltrate the Night Watch Headquarters are the elite of the elite, they can even evade Heart Questioning abilities. How can you be so sure that they won’t notice the anomaly and escape beforehand?”

“If it were me, I would definitely strike swiftly and decisively, nipping the danger in the bud.”

“As for Director Wu’s work style…” Zheng Cheng said: “He’s decisive, straightforward and doesn’t sweat the small stuff. Once you prove your abilities and worth to people like him, you’re bound to be heavily relied upon.”

“But, there’s an extremely high chance of being used as bait!”

“We’d better keep our distance from the Night Watch in the future. Refuse their missions if we can!”

“Understood!”

The trio left and found the bored Zhao Wufeng.

Under Zhao Wufeng’s lead, they headed towards the Ghost Market in Beijing.

Meanwhile, back in the special department of the Night Watch, Wu Fuqing made a call.

“Elder Xin, it’s finished.”

“Oh?”

An aged voice echoed from the other end of the call: “What’s the result?”

“As you predicted, that young man performed quite well.”

Wu Fuqing began, “Not only did he find the mole in our Night Watch headquarters in an incredibly short span of time, but even the Illusory Divinity’s Illusionary Soul Splitting technique couldn’t fool him.”

“Most importantly, he managed to withstand a full power strike from a black-rank captain!”

“Really? It seems our conjecture was correct.”

The aged voice continued: “Did he get upset with us?”

Wu Fuqing chuckled, “Not exactly upset. He’s a young man filled with vigor, I understand it.”

“Elder Xin, is he really a God’s professionist?”

“That’s just our wild guess.”

Elder Xin continued: “The Acute Gastroenteritis Instant Eruption Technique, a seemingly joke-like ability that can ignore a professionist’s resistance, don’t you find it strange?”

“And now, look at his probing capability. As you said, even the old ghost, Illusory Divinity, couldn’t fool him.”

“So, I have reason to believe that Zheng Cheng is indeed a God’s Professionist!”

“Just like Angel Melody from Eagle Nation who has the resurrection ability!”

Wu Fuqing queried: “So what should we do now?”

“Wait!”

“Wait?”

“Hmm,” Elder Xin said, “The growth of a god’s professionist is full of randomness. Judging from his abilities, they aren’t very strong. Not to mention Melody’s resurrection technique, even the god professionists launched by other countries can’t compare.”

“But he’s a little surprise, right? Wait until he grows up!”

“I understand.”

“Hmm,” Elder Xin said, “I’ll hang up if there’s nothing else.”

“Hmm.”

Late at night.

Zheng Cheng looked surprisingly at the scene before him.

This was a street located north of the city, next to the towering city wall that protected Beijing.

Along the side of the city wall, a market about five kilometers long had been carved out by people.

Even though it was late at night, the place was busy and lively.

Chicken had something to do temporarily, and Yao Zhixue was called away by the instructor. Only he and Zhao Wufeng came to the Ghost Market.

Zhao Wufeng laughed, “What do you think? Surprised? You wouldn’t have thought that the ghost market in Beijing would be like this.”

People were coming and going around, and various stalls were set up on both sides of the street. At least several thousand people crowded here, shopping and meandering, with occasional arguments and quarrels.

Zheng Cheng glanced at the road sign next to him: “Gold Sprinkle Bridge?”

Zhao Wufeng explained, “Before the major disaster, this place was dedicated to selling antiques, and then slowly formed into a ghost market.”

“Because it’s close to the outside of the city, and it’s on the edge of the Night Guards, the Professionist Guild, and University City, several large organizations, so it gradually formed a street with the theme of professionist trading.”

They walked and chatted, constantly observing the merchandise on the surrounding stalls.

Equipment, props, weapons, alchemy items, rune scripts, beast eggs, all kinds of goods, dazzling and overwhelming.

In addition to these stalls, there were several large stores in the middle of the side, where there were even more people.

Zheng Cheng asked, “Are there any shops selling beast bodies here?”

“Beast bodies?” Although Zhao Wufeng was a bit strange, he still said, “Of course there are.”

“Beast bodies are important raw materials for alchemists and pill-refiners and are widely circulated.”

“Look… over there.”

Zhao Wufeng pointed to a fierce-looking building in front of him and said, “That’s the largest shop in the Ghost Market that sells and purchases beast bodies. It’s called ‘Leopard Garden’.”

Then, Zhao Wufeng added, “That’s the property of the Beijing Zheng Family.”

“Zheng Family?”

Zheng Cheng’s eyes flashed, and he nodded, “I see, I’ll go take a look.”

Zhao Wufeng, however, stopped, “If you want to go to Leopard Garden, go by yourself. I’m not going with you.”

“Oh?”

Zheng Cheng puzzled, “Why? Is there a conflict with the Zheng Family?”

Zhao Wufeng glanced around and whispered, “I’ll tell you, but don’t tell anyone else. The Zheng Family has a special status as the family of the first nine-star professionist of our Blue Star’s race.”

“But more than a hundred years ago due to some accidents, the Zheng Family split in two and had a profound impact on our Xia Country.”

“Some conflicts occurred at that time, and since then, there have been visible rifts between the Zheng family of Beijing and several other pioneer families of Beijing.”

“Anyway, you just need to know that the Zheng Family is above all the other professionist families, but it is also feared by the other pioneer families.”

Zheng Cheng’s eyes flashed, “I understand.”

“You wait here, I’ll go take a look.”

Zhao Wufeng wondered, “You want to buy beast bodies? What do you need those for?”

“Didn’t I sign up for the elective course Special Food Nutrition and Health? It requires dissecting a large number of beast bodies, so I want to buy some to practice.”

“Special Food Nutrition and Health? Shentu Dao?”

Zhao Wufeng blinked, “You wouldn’t have signed up for Shentu Dao’s elective, would you?”

“It’s Teacher Shentu, what’s wrong?”

Zhao Wufeng pitied, “Shentu is crazy, you’re awesome for daring to take his class.”

“Go, hurry up, I won’t stop you anymore!”
