This divine grace had almost no enhancement to combat power.

After passing through the museum’s God’s Ruins and witnessing the strength of gods and some god hunters, Lin Baici was now eager to possess a combat-oriented divine grace.

Therefore, the second one satisfied him greatly.

The Hand of Grand Impression!

Once activated, Lin Baici could flatten three-dimensional objects into two dimensions, turning them into sticker-like entities.

However, this powerful divine grace consumed a massive amount of divine power. With Lin Baici’s current reserves, he could use it at most three times before depleting his divine power.

Lin Baici silently familiarized himself with these three divine graces, took out his phone to check it, no signal, and then turned to look out the window.

As the high-speed train moved, the telephone poles standing in the fields sped backwards, like abandoned scarecrows.

With no movement from the other party, Lin Baici calmed down and began to inventory his equipment.

In addition to the original Divine taboo, he had acquired seven more in the museum this time.

The first one, the Pharaoh’s golden mask, was too dangerous. Once someone put it on, they wouldn’t want to take it off, feeling like they were the Pharaoh.

In reality, after more than thirty seconds, one would become a breeding ground for scarab beetles.

Apart from controlling scarabs, it was useless. Lin Baici thought he could sell it for Meteor Coins.

The second one, the Cat God’s Scales.

The rule contamination radiating from this object was terrifying. No matter how strong a god hunter was, if they couldn’t answer its questions, they were done for.

Without the God-Eater’s commentary, Lin Baici wouldn’t last, so this Divine taboo was like a time bomb, to be sold when the opportunity arose.

It was much more powerful than the Pharaoh’s golden mask and could probably fetch more than ten times the price.

The third and fourth items were the White Pufferfish Tooth and the Black Death Bayonet, both obtained after killing a key member of the Lost Coast.

One allowed breathing underwater, the other could spread the Black Death, easily causing a major plague.

The fifth item was the Anubis Golden Scepter, which could summon a pack of jackals to aid in battle. Lin Baici gave it to Jin Yingzhen.

The sixth item was the Nile No. 3, an ancient Egyptian solar barge.

Although it was ugly and the interior was rudimentary, lacking even a catapult, let alone cannons, it was still a vehicle. Moreover, it had the property of never sinking under the sunlight.

Just these two features made it invaluable.

Lin Baici wouldn’t have to worry about drowning when fighting in places with large bodies of water, such as the Amazon jungle or the city of Venice.

The seventh item was the Pharaoh’s Mummy Wrappings.

Currently wrapped around Lin Baici’s left wrist, this was a top-notch item. Once activated, it could transform a person into a mummy state.

In this state, one would walk the line between life and death, and physical damage would be greatly reduced.

The only problem was that it couldn’t be used frequently, otherwise one would start to smell of spices and decay, begin to dislike the living, prefer corpses, and yearn for death.

Finally, there was the Pharaoh’s Scepter.

More of an SM tool than a weapon, using it on someone would gradually make them fall in love with the sensation, liking the person who whipped them.

After such an inventory, only the Pharaoh’s Mummy Wrappings were truly useful, followed by the Nile No. 3 and the White Pufferfish Tooth, two functional Divine taboo items.

The rest could be sold.

Compared to Divine taboo items, Lin Baici had a great harvest of divine graces this time, including Cat’s Light Steps, Dance with Wolves, and Serpent’s Flexible Bones, all of which were quite practical.

Now, Lin Baici had a total of fifteen divine graces. Not only were there many, but they were also of high quality, and he had obtained them in just three short months, which was very fast.

Divine graces were like cards in hand; the more a god hunter had, the more options they had when dealing with rule contamination.

Phew!

Lin Baici took a deep breath, leaned back in his chair, and began to analyze the origins of these people.

They must be members of the Kyushu Security Bureau, right?

What was their purpose in coming here?

To capture him? To take him back as a test subject?

Lin Baici knew that his last act of eating a god raw must have been frightening, but it seemed that only Xia Hongmian had seen it?

So, were these people sent by her?

Lin Baici’s thoughts were a bit chaotic. If that was the case, what should he do?

Without any footsteps, a woman in black trousers and a white shirt appeared suddenly and sat down next to Lin Baici.

It was Xia Hongmian!

She held an ice cream and handed it to Lin Baici: “Hongyao really likes this kind of thing!”

“Don’t all girls love sweets?”

When faced with an obstacle, deal with it. For some reason, upon hearing Xia Hongmian speak, Lin Baici’s irritated thoughts disappeared, and he quickly calmed down.

He calmly took the ice cream and bit into it.

“You should have bought me a Coke, Pepsi!”

“Next time!”

Xia Hongmian didn’t look at Lin Baici, but she observed every subtle expression of his, so she was surprised by his composure, which then turned into admiration.

He’s got guts!

“Why choose to go home?”

Xia Hongmian asked, crossing her legs and watching the movie playing on the high-speed train’s TV.

“Just went through life and death, wanted to see home!”

Lin Baici replied smoothly.

“So, do you still dare to be a god hunter?”

After saying that, Xia Hongmian asked, “This is ‘Infernal Affairs,’ you haven’t seen it, right? It’s a very old movie!”

“Why not?”

Lin Baici countered.

“I, Xia Hongmian, formally invite you to join the Haijing Security Bureau. The previous genius recruitment terms are still valid!”

Xia Hongmian turned her head, looked at Lin Baici, and extended her right hand.

Lin Baici raised an eyebrow. He noticed a detail; Xia Hongmian said Haijing Security Bureau, not Kyushu Security Bureau.

And what was her real purpose?

Lin Baici knew that most god hunters couldn’t directly touch the remains of gods, yet he had eaten a god raw. Wasn’t she curious?

“Baici, the world is vast. Right now, you’re like someone who has just learned addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, seeing only numbers within a hundred. Beyond that, there’s calculus, geometry, algebra…”

Xia Hongmian didn’t continue because she felt that with Lin Baici’s intelligence, he should understand.

“Heh!”

Lin Baici laughed. Xia Hongmian’s meaning was that the things he cared about were as meaningless as kindergarten arithmetic in her eyes.

“Individual power is always weak, unable to contend with a group. Even the great demon king needs to recruit four heavenly kings!”

Xia Hongmian looked into Lin Baici’s eyes: “Don’t you want to see the top of the world with me?”

“The people who can stand by my side are few, even my sister is not qualified!”

With that said, what choice did Lin Baici have?

So Lin Baici shook Xia Hongmian’s hand: “I hope you won’t regret this decision today!”

“Regret is an emotion without any meaning!”

Xia Hongmian smiled slightly, and when Lin Baici released her hand, she stood up: “Are you interested in being an examiner?”

Lin Baici was silent, waiting for Xia Hongmian to continue.

“With your strength, participating in the god hunter qualification assessment would be too bullying. Plus, I want you to see what goals these prospective newcomers have when they enter this circle, so why not be an examiner?”

Xia Hongmian explained, of course, there were other purposes she didn’t need to tell Lin Baici.

“Will anyone be dissatisfied?”

Lin Baici was concerned.

An examiner?

Isn’t that usually a role for someone with great prestige and strong abilities?

“That’s your problem!”

On the TV, it was playing “Three Years and Another Three Years.”

“Heh!”

Lin Baici laughed: “I understand!”

If someone was dissatisfied, then he would just have to beat them until they were convinced!

“Have a pleasant journey!”

Xia Hongmian walked a few steps forward, then suddenly stopped: “I heard you’re going on a ‘Train to Busan’?”

“Yes!”

Lin Baici didn’t bother to prevaricate and admitted it directly.

Jin Yingzhen had never thought to hide her identity. With Xia Hongmian’s power, a simple check would reveal it. Her brother was Jin Xian, a member of a radical faction, who must have tried to recruit him.

For a god hunter, an unexplored God’s Ruins was like the most tempting beauty. Who wouldn’t want to sleep with it?

The Busan God’s Ruins was a treasure of Goryeo!

“I hope you have a good harvest!”

Xia Hongmian left.

Lin Baici looked out the window.

Joining the Kyushu Security Bureau and mixing with the organization was the only way to a bright future because the future him might also sit in Xia Hongmian’s ministerial seat.

Real power wasn’t something one fought for alone, but the ability to command several elite god hunter teams to their deaths.

And it’s good to have the backing of a big tree. The current Lin Baici was still too weak.

He also had to consider his mother.

After joining the Kyushu Security Bureau, there would be professional bodyguards to protect his mom!

Ding-dong! Ding-dong!

Lin Baici’s phone rang.

He took it out and saw that there was a signal again, and several notifications for missed calls and WeChat messages had come in.

Detective Xia: Little Linzi, how did it go with my sister?

My sister is a bit quirky, so bear with her. If she offended you, I apologize!

Actually, my sister is not bad.

Hua Yueyu and Jin Yingzhen hadn’t sent any messages. Given their personalities, they wouldn’t do this, which meant they currently had no freedom.

Li Shan Ghost: Hehe, I found a part-time job, two hundred a day, work for seven days and earn 1400, jealous?

Don’t come looking for me these days, no time to play.

Lin Baici thought of his last visit to Haijing Normal University, where he suddenly felt hungry upon seeing someone. It seemed that place was also unsafe.

He hoped his friend wouldn’t encounter rule contamination.

Lin Baici dialed his mother’s phone.

“What’s wrong? Missing home on the first day?”

His mother’s voice was tinged with weariness and concern: “If so, just buy a ticket back, I’ll make you something delicious.”

“I’m not coming back!”

Lin Baici originally thought it was a waste not to return since he had bought the ticket, but after hearing his mother’s voice, he changed his mind: “My senior’s website is at a critical stage, I need to code for him, I’m quite busy these days. But if the website sells, I could make some money, maybe even enough for a down payment on a house!”

Lin Baici planned to find an excuse to quickly buy a house and bring his mother over, so he could be at ease.
