Chapter 1008: Chapter 1007: Post-War Handling Chapter 1008: Chapter 1007: Post-War Handling Other Derry Town â Morgue
The ticking sound of a water trickle could faintly be heard emanating from the depths of the morgue.
Even the murmurings of a man talking to himself could be heard.
âThis force isnât bad, right?â
âItâs a bit deep here, let me clean it up for youâŠâ
âJust hold on a bit, it might be a little uncomfortable.â
If one didnât know any better, they might think some necrophiliac creep had slipped in⊠Of course, itâs not just anyone who can enter here.
Following the sound, the iron door swung open.
Inside the spotlessly clean dissection room.
A young man, clad in a white lab coat, was meticulously cleaning a female corpse on the âCorpse Cartâ with a high-pressure hose, ensuring every inch of skin and every crevice was thoroughly washed.
Such âdeep cleaningâ was something only Han Dong would dare to undertake.
The group of cowardly ghosts under the cart didnât dare to make eye contact with Miss Jane, let alone help wash.
Normally, Miss Jane would let the clean water flow through each part of her body once, paired with a simple wash using hydrogen peroxide.
This was the first time Han Dong had helped her clean out the impurities within her body, perhaps due to being excessively comfortable, or perhaps because every corner inside her and every piece of witchcraft script had been scrutinized.
After all, the two had been separated for so long, and Jane was still very unused to it⊠The wheels of the cart kept spinning.
âNicholasâŠâ
âHmm?â
âAre you very familiar with Miss Toad? Although she pretends not to have much of a connection with you, itâs clear she doesnât care about anyone else and only considers your opinion.â
Miss Janeâs words flashed through Han Dongâs cautious heart, making him slightly nervous.
âHaha, I can only say we are acquainted.
We happened to bump into her during the expedition and under the command of a higher being, entered Fate Space together.â
âOh⊠no wonder, I thought she was quite formidable. If it really came to a fight, she might be able to consume me⊠almost as strong as Dean Richard.
Is this Miss Toad you speak of the Demon you mentioned?
In your world, where would she approximately rank?â
After all, Miss Jane had been living in Other Derry Town for a long time, and such rankings of strength had become deeply entrenched in peopleâs minds.
Han Dong saw the subject changing and quickly followed up, âWell⊠she isnât even ranked yet.
She is formidable, but still far from the most formidable.
She has only just encountered the âDoorâ; beyond it exists many demons, and even some special beings have reached very deep positions, even higher than gods.â
Hearing this, Miss Jane gained a deeper understanding of Han Dongâs world, and was quite amazed internally.
âThen I think Iâll wait a bit longer before going back with you.â
âHmm⊠Other Derry Town should be evolving towards a higher plane soon.
Miss Jane, as a key figure, you must stay here to help.
As the world ascends, as one of the Ten Devils, you should also receive good benefits.â
âYou go ahead, the mayor said you donât have much time⊠Thank you for the bath.
Since there isnât much time left, I wonât accompany you back to the pyramid to avoid disturbing you from dealing with City of Godsâ matters.
If help is needed again, call on us⊠Remember to visit when you have time.â
âMiss Jane, Iâll be leaving first.â
Indeed, Han Dong had many matters to attend to.
âŠ
Han Dong, preoccupied with pressing affairs, had just rushed back to the pyramid when he bumped into Maritzis at the entrance.
âWhat a worthless treasury⊠Even the âUnactivated Divinitiesâ stored in its deepest part arenât much use. The divinity among them is in no way comparable to that of Toad Ancestor; they might as well be his snacks.â
Because she couldnât find anything valuable to report, Maritzis became visibly anxious, beads of sweat visibly emerging between her tender thighs.
SlapâA hand landed on Maritzisâs shoulder, calming her distress.
When the palm touched her, it even splashed a bit of water; there truly was a lot of it.
âItâs okay, I will naturally explain things to Toad Ancestor; rest assured.â
âHmph⊠If there isnât anything good, donât think about taking me away from Toad Ancestorâs side.
I am one of Toad Ancestorâs most esteemed subordinates. You better think it through; without my assistance, be careful not to die in the upcoming battles.â
âI know, I have my ways.â
Han Dong could tell that this incident had completely changed Maritzisâs worldview, and she had even begun to loathe the territory she governed⊠Her greatest interest had shifted to adventuring around the world with Han Dong.
âMary, you mentioned that there are some unactivated âDivinitiesâ deep in the treasury? Take me to see them.â
âWhy? You want to use them?â
Han Dong quickly waved his hands, âDonât misunderstand⊠I definitely wonât use such âexternal fusionâ to become a god, nor will I absorb these divinities that arenât mine to enhance myself.
I just want to see if these items meet the âgiftâ criteria.â
âA gift? Who are you giving it to?â
âItâs normal that Toad Ancestor, as a âMiddle Position Old King,â wouldnât care for such things⊠But, these divinities might interest those âLower-class Old Kingsâ who have just put on their crowns and are reveling in the Abyss.
Our humanâs expedition target is Dark London City, so letâs send some gifts in advance.â
Maritzis nodded, not denying Han Dongâs opinion, and also offered her own suggestion, âActually, with your status, you really donât need to go with the Human Expeditionary Army⊠If you want to go to London City, just go alone.
With your status, [The Dark Mother] should welcome you warmly.â
âWeâll see about that⊠letâs first make a trip to the treasury.â
By chance.
Four individuals, resembling Dark Elves as âresidents,â were also picking out items here.
Upon Han Dongâs arrival, the four immediately held up the items they had selected and knelt devoutly, asking if they could take these items.
In their hearts, Han Dong was the representative of the Mad King, the Traveler, and the Supreme Lord.
Han Dong also took the opportunity to hand over a Black Water Divinity that exuded a dark aura.
âYou can take what youâve picked, and also, please take this âBlack Water Divinityâ to [The Mother-N.G.]. I will visit London City later.â
The leading female resident, flicking her dark and sullen tail, said with great reverence, âWhen you arrive in London City, if you donât mind, we four sisters would like to serve as your temporary maids.â
âOkay, I will contact you then.â
All the urgent matters after the battle had been dealt with in succession.
Back in the [Eye of God Room], Han Dong stepped back onto the grand black throne and glanced at the time on his hand.
âThere are still 16 hours left, letâs start working⊠I need to develop [Rules] that better fit the development of the City of Gods so that my Pharaoh identity can be maximized.
I wonder how this heavy âPharaohâ identity will enhance my real-world self.â
