Chapter 773: Let's Play Together Happily
Asylum of the Gods.
Lin Qiye draped in a white coat, walking leisurely through the corridor. Around him, orderlies passed by, each lowering their heads to greet him with a "Director."
Lin Qiye smiled and nodded slightly.
He walked straight through the second floor and arrived at the Director's Office. He closed the door behind him and opened the secret passage leading to the underground dungeon.
In the pitch-black,幽深的 dungeon, Lin Qiye walked forward with his hands in his pockets, calm as ever.
Finally, he stopped in front of a certain cell.
Seeing the figure inside the cell, his lips curved upward slightly.
"Meet again, Yata Mirror spirit... Thunder Beast."
Behind the sturdy bars, a deep-blue cat lay motionless in the corner of the cell. As Lin Qiye approached, its vertical pupils contracted slightly, every strand of fur standing on end as it arched its back and rose from the ground.
"Roar, roar, roar... Meow~"
The Thunder Beast opened its mouth, wanting to let out two fierce growls, but after a hoarse moment, it only managed to produce an innocent "meow."
The Thunder Beast froze in place.
Compared to the Thunder Beast that had run wild across Tokyo, its size had now shrunk countless times. The mythical beast that could have destroyed half of Tokyo with a single bite had been compressed to the size of an ordinary house cat in this cell.
The majestic, ferocious appearance suddenly became inexplicably cute under the delicate, fragile frame.
"Meow!!" The Thunder Beast fiercely roared at Lin Qiye. (It thought it was being fierce)
Lin Qiye's lips twitched slightly.
He raised his head and looked at the panel floating behind the Thunder Beast.
"
Prisoner: Thunder Beast
Decision: As the mythological creature you personally killed, you hold the right to decide its soul's fate:
Option 1: Directly annihilate its soul, causing it to be utterly destroyed from this world.
Option 2: Bring its 'Fear Value' toward you to 60, and you may hire it as a hospital orderly. While caring for patients, it can also provide you with protection to a certain extent.
Current Fear Value: 23
"
As Lin Qiye had expected, after the Thunder Beast was killed by him, its soul was also drawn into the Asylum of the Gods.
This psychiatric hospital... could actually imprison mythological-level existences!
Lin Qiye's gaze toward the deep-blue kitten grew fervent.
This was a genuine Divine Beast. Though its strength had not reached true godhood, it could still rival a Human Apex-level powerhouse. This was the most powerful existence he had imprisoned since obtaining the Asylum of the Gods.
If he could turn the Thunder Beast into his orderly, in the future he would have the opportunity to summon it out, becoming a terrifying combat force!
Recalling the domineering scene of the Thunder Beast's destruction of Tokyo, Lin Qiye's heart filled with longing...
No matter what, he must make it an orderly!
Sensing Lin Qiye's burning gaze, the Thunder Beast suddenly had a bad premonition. It unconsciously stepped back half a pace, but thinking of itself as a Divine Beast, it opened its mouth again and ferociously snarled at Lin Qiye:
"Meow~"
Looking at that beautiful deep-blue cat, Lin Qiye's heart suddenly softened a little...
This further solidified his desire to recruit the Thunder Beast as an orderly.
This breed, this appearance, this voice—even if it didn't have Divine Beast-level combat power, keeping it as a mascot in the hospital would be great!
But the problem was, the Thunder Beast's fear value toward him wasn't high enough.
After all, in the Thunder Beast's eyes, Lin Qiye's strength was no different from an ant on the road—something that could be crushed with a single spit. Though Lin Qiye had killed it in Tokyo with one chopstick, that hadn't been his own power...
To make it fear Lin Qiye, this much wasn't enough.
Lin Qiye thought seriously.
How should he make the Thunder Beast fear him...
Fight? Definitely no match.
Scare? It was a Divine Beast of Takamagahara—who would scare whom wasn't certain.
Lin Qiye couldn't help but feel troubled.
He thought for a long time without finding a good method, so he temporarily left the Dungeon and walked toward the hospital courtyard.
At any rate, the Thunder Beast was already imprisoned here. As long as he didn't make a choice, the other party couldn't escape at all. Lin Qiye had plenty of time.
Back on the surface, Lin Qiye walked straight to the center of the courtyard and sat down on the lush green grass. Watching the many orderlies bustling about in the distance, his thoughts raced.
Thunder Beast...
Thunder Beast... was a cat...
What would make it feel afraid...
Lin Qiye fell into deep thought.
Just then, a small group of orderlies descended from the hospital's second floor.
About six or seven people, carrying brooms, mops, disinfectant, and air fresheners, all wearing masks with expressions of utter resignation.
Before them, a pug walked upright, draped in a black tailcoat, chest puffed out proudly. The tailcoat swayed gently as it walked, and it carried a broom on its shoulder, which had some indescribable substances stuck to it.
It licked the corner of its mouth, a mysteriously wicked smile forming on its dog lips.
It was the Minister of Cleaning for the Asylum of the Gods—Wangcai.
Judging by their direction, they had just finished today's toilet cleaning and were heading home.
Seeing that wicked smile, Lin Qiye suddenly recalled the scene in the dream Wangcai had created—where he and Wangcai sat in a Western restaurant, holding knife and fork, looking at the things on their plates and smiling at each other. His stomach churned...
He was about to look away, then seemed to think of something. His pupils suddenly constricted.
He quickly rose from the ground, excitement flickering in his eyes.
He knew how to deal with that Thunder Beast!
...
A few minutes later.
Underground Dungeon.
Lin Qiye, leading the confused Wangcai, passed through the deep, narrow passage and arrived before the Thunder Beast.
In the corner of the cell, the Thunder Beast lay motionless on the ground. Seeing Lin Qiye return, its expression once again turned "ferocious."
"Wangcai, I have a task for you." Lin Qiye lifted the pug in its tailcoat and leaned close to its ear, whispering something, his expression somewhat peculiar.
After hearing this, Wangcai turned to look at the deep-blue cat in the cell, its eyes gradually brightening.
"To help you focus on your work, I'm temporarily suspending your position as Cleaning Department Minister. Don't come out until you've properly trained it." Lin Qiye gave Wangcai another shot of encouragement.
It licked the corner of its mouth. "No problem!"
Lin Qiye held Wangcai in his arms, flicked his finger, and one section of the cell's bars automatically opened. He tossed the pug inside.
Before signing the contract, though Lin Qiye couldn't release the Thunder Beast, there was no problem sending other things in...
Seeing a strange pug suddenly run into its territory, the Thunder Beast leapt up from the ground, all its fur standing on end as it ferociously meowed at Wangcai.
"Don't be scared, little kitty." Wangcai, draped in its black tailcoat, stood upright on the ground, the corner of its mouth curling into a wicked smile. "Let us... play together happily."
