Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

Chapter 1452: Chapter 613: The Orphan Girl’s Path (Part 3)

——If there’s a problem, the staff need to record and report it.

Jiu took the newly assigned machine and headed towards the area she was responsible for.

Overtime.

How long since I’ve heard that word.

Will I stumble upon an unsealed dangerous object and be directly killed?

The next day’s headline news:

“The Split Bee Woman inherited the Saint’s legacy and died suddenly on the job while working overtime at night!”

Jiu shook her head self-deprecatingly and began her work.

She aimed the machine at a sealed crystal, and when it beeped, it indicated the seal was intact.

Then she could check the next sealed object.

——This work is very tedious and boring.

Jiu even began to multitask, scanning the sealed objects while mentally reading about the Saint-making Technique.

As time passed.

She gradually got lost in the endless sea of sealed objects.

“Beep!”

Another soft sound.

Jiu mechanically moved her steps, walking to the next sealed object, and raised the machine once more.

“Wait a minute.”

Su Su’s voice suddenly sounded.

“Hmm? What’s up?” Jiu asked.

“You’re being really inefficient like this. Why not let me inhabit this warehouse and quickly grasp the state of all sealed objects?” Su Su suggested.

“But there might be surveillance here…”

Jiu’s words trailed off and gradually stopped.

He glanced at the wall beside him.

The runes etched on the wall had all turned gray and dull.

——The runes have failed.

Because the curse consumed all the rune-based Techniques in the entire building!

“If someone wanted to kill you, now is the time without surveillance — perhaps someone has that idea,” Charlotte said.

Jiu nodded slightly.

As long as there’s no surveillance, she has nothing to fear.

If there is a Saint coveting nearby, she would sense it—

The Truth Creations would also become aware of it.

In that case.

“…Alright then, leave it to Su Su,” Jiu said.

A woman silently emerged from the shadow behind Jiu, pressed her hand to the ground, and vanished into it.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Su Su reappeared, returning to the shadow behind Jiu.

“Done, I even checked a few other warehouses,” Su Su stated.

“Was there any problem?”

“There were several very aggressive Creations, and their seals have long been compromised. You might be attacked as soon as you approach.”

“Is that all?”

“Also—this warehouse is actually connected to the adjacent B-class warehouse. I saw a passage, and if you’re not careful, you’ll slip through to the B-class warehouse.”

Su Su emphasized:

“There’s someone guarding the other end of that passage, but they’ve hidden themselves.”

Jiu understood.

Tsk.

Jie is already dead.

Now, I’m alone, having inherited all of Jie’s legacy.

——These people are dealing with me, an orphan, intending to wipe out my legacy.

Jiu turned and walked out of the warehouse.

She walked for a while before reaching the warehouse entrance.

“Why did you come out?”

The colleague responsible for guarding the warehouse asked in surprise.

“It’s almost done. Can I take a break? Maybe grab some food.” Jiu replied.

“Time is tight and tasks are heavy. Hurry and check. There’ll be a working dinner delivered at night.” The colleague said.

Jiu sighed, turned back, and once again entered the cluster of oddly shaped sealed objects.

“You’ve clearly finished checking, why not just leave?”

Su Su whispered.

Jiu smiled and said, “If I leave now, they’ll come up with new ways to deal with me. It’s actually safer here.”

She sat on the ground, closed her eyes, and began comprehending the Saint-making Technique again.

As long as the dangerous sealed objects weren’t touched, nothing would happen.

A misleading passage, as long as it’s not used—

Nothing would happen either.

I don’t need to worry about them; I just need to focus on my cultivation!

Time quietly slipped by.

Jiu’s aura gradually stabilized.

She began to perceive various Laws in the endless Void.

A deeply regretful sigh echoed:

“Someone’s coming.”

——It was Charlotte’s voice.

Not only did she feel the regret, but the other Creations also sighed helplessly.

No choice!

There’s always someone disturbing.

Jiu opened her eyes to see her department leader, Xing Can, appear before her.

“Boss, what’s the matter?”

Jiu smiled.

“How’s your work going here?” Xing Can asked.

“Nearly finished.”

“Good, now head to the D-class warehouse. The work there is more demanding; give them a hand.”

“Understood.”

Jiu followed Xing Can to the D-class warehouse.

Xing Can assigned her an area and then left.

Su Su’s voice sounded softly in her mind:

“I just took a look around the warehouses; in the area he assigned you, there’s a seal about to break, and whatever’s inside seems quite dangerous.”

Jiu’s eyes darkened.

“Is it timed?” she asked.

“As you start working, based on your efficiency, when you almost reach it, the seal will break,” Su Su said.

“Let’s go directly to it,” Jiu said.

Following Su Su’s direction, she arrived at the sealed object.

——It was a piece of wriggling flesh.

The surrounding seal was indeed very fragile.

Jiu raised the machine and scanned the seal.

“Beep beep beep beep—”

The alarm sounded.

Several figures arrived instantly.

“Look, there’s a problem here.” Jiu said.

Several Professionals looked at her.

Jiu smiled, scratched her head, and said, “I have a premonition of danger, so I sensed there was a problem here.”

——Before the explosion, I already detected the issue.

At this moment, the seal hadn’t broken.

She had already reported it to her superiors.

This eliminated the danger.

Several Professionals took out materials and began to repair the seal.

Jiu stood by and watched.

Is the issue resolved?

Su Su suddenly called out in her mind:

“Be careful, in your area there are several seals rapidly disappearing—someone’s remotely controlling them!”

Jiu was silent for a moment.

When seals disappear, monitoring staff must be held accountable.

Now, this area is under her responsibility.

Tsk.

They definitely want to pin the failure on me.

If that’s the case—

“Where is the Rahu’s Finger I saw before?”

“Not far.”

“Release it immediately.”

“Alright,” Su Su agreed.

In the next moment.

Before those remotely controlled seals were undone—

Jiu had already let Su Su lift the seal on the Rahu’s Finger first.

She continued to watch the hectic Professionals, her expression exceedingly calm, but transmitting:

“Tell it, we have discovered it and are ready to completely destroy it.”

“Okay, I’ll tell it.” Su Su responded excitedly.

If that finger makes the first move, causing problems in the entire warehouse, then—

You can’t blame a newcomer for that.

She wasn’t in charge of that area.

She had already completed her task and was just reassigned.

And the finger had been vetted by Saints who deemed it harmless!

——This completed a round of response.

“I told it,”

Su Su replied with a smile, communicating back to Jiu.

“What did it say?” Jiu asked.

“It told me not to seek death.”

“And you?”

“I said we have many Saints, who could easily outplay it,” Su Su—eager for excitement—said.

Jiu didn’t say anything more, just waited quietly.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

The finger twitched slightly.

Thin strands of black flesh emerged from the finger, rapidly and frenziedly spreading in all directions.

Crash—

The seal was effortlessly shattered.

Everything around began to be consumed by those black tendrils of flesh.

The piercing alarm blared throughout the building.
