Chapter 53: Chapter 21: The Life of Ghouls

Su Xiao paid 800 Paradise coins, and a new skill appeared in the skill bar.

The newly appeared skill was an eye pattern, different from other skills, it was light gray, probably because it was a temporary skill.

Basic Detection (Temporary)

Skill Level: Lv.2.

Use Condition: 10 points of Mana Value.

Skill Effect: Observe information of any creature. The degree of information obtained depends on the strength difference between the user and the observation target.

Hint: Every level up increases information completeness by 5%.

Hint: This skill has a cooldown time of ten minutes.

...

From the description, the [Basic Detection] temporary skill seems quite decent, it’s just unclear what the detected information looks like.

"Mister Bai Ye~?"

Shuuzou Suzuya walked into the alley, looking at Su Xiao with confusion.

Upon seeing Shuuzou Suzuya, Su Xiao raised an eyebrow and used [Basic Detection].

[10 points of Mana Value consumed, Basic Detection activated, obtaining the following information.]

Name: Shuuzou Suzuya.

Third-class Investigator.

Life Value: 100%

Mana Value: 50

Power: 7

Agility: 10

Stamina: 6

Intelligence: 5

Charm: 4

Luck: 1

Skill 1, Masochist (Passive): Becomes highly excited after enduring pain and ignores most pain sensations.

Skill 2, Sadist (Passive): After showing a frenzied side, induces a shocking effect on enemies, increasing damage by 8%.

...

All information regarding Shuuzou Suzuya was presented to Su Xiao, as the opponent was weaker, providing comprehensive data.

[Basic Detection] is quite a good ability, but unfortunately, it’s just a temporary skill that will vanish after leaving the Ghoul world.

Su Xiao had already decided that after returning to Reincarnation Paradise, no matter what, he had to acquire equipment or skills to detect strength.

"Mister Bai Ye~, where are we going?"

Shuuzou Suzuya circled around Su Xiao, seemingly unwilling to stop for even a moment.

Su Xiao stood in place thinking; the appearance of this little white rat indicated that the opposing Contractors had started taking action.

This puzzled him; he felt that his progress in completing the main task was already swift. Could Contractors in the Ghoul camp be even faster?

This possibility was unlikely; if the Ghoul camp Contractors were truly that strong, the balance mechanism of Reincarnation Paradise wouldn’t have activated.

The reason Su Xiao hadn’t been wary of the mouse at first was precisely this. Or perhaps the one monitoring him wasn’t even a Ghoul camp Contractor?

Reincarnation Paradise is filled with danger; one cannot have a rigid mindset.

The Contractor monitoring him hadn’t shown up yet, but the source of the surveillance had been found and eliminated.

Even so, it’s clear that while he is in the open, the enemy remains hidden. He must complete the main task (2) and cannot stay in the shadows.

"Shuuzou Suzuya, follow me, let’s return to the CCG Branch."

Su Xiao decided to temporarily head back to the CCG Branch. Unlike Maniwa Haruo, this little white-haired one had some combat effectiveness.

If opposing Contractors showed up, Shuuzou Suzuya could at least act as a delay. If the opposing Contractors weren’t strong, Shuuzou Suzuya might even be able to kill one or two of them.

The main task couldn’t be halted, and he wouldn’t stop executing tasks just because a Contractor was monitoring him. That’s the most foolish choice.

Where there’s danger, he must resolve its source, never evade. This is Su Xiao’s style of acting.

---------------

In the CCG Branch lobby, two rows of suit-clad investigators stood before Su Xiao.

"That’s basically it; we’ll regroup here at nine o’clock tonight."

Leaving this message, Su Xiao proceeded to the logistics department.

After Su Xiao left, whispers filled the lobby among the ghoul investigators.

These investigators didn’t know the specific plan; Su Xiao only informed them of the routes that needed to be sealed off.

No one knew if there were any ghoul informants within the CCG Branch; it was better to be cautious.

After organizing the plan for tonight, Su Xiao returned to rest in an upper-level dormitory of the CCG.

He had a feeling that there might be some upheaval in the plan to clean up the auction tonight.

There were only a few hours left until the plan’s execution, so he needed to seize every moment to rest.

That evening at nine, the CCG Branch was ablaze with lights. Numerous CCG vehicles gathered at the branch’s entrance, and fully armed CCG members were already waiting.

Su Xiao stepped out from the branch, and Maniwa Haruo approached.

"First-class Bai Ye, the personnel have assembled and are ready to depart at any time."

Maniwa Haruo appeared slightly tense; it was her first time participating in a ghoul extermination operation of such scale.

"Move out."

As Su Xiao got into a car, the sound of closing doors resonated, accompanied by the low rumble of engines as nearly a hundred-member squad moved out under Su Xiao’s leadership.

With the rank of a First-class Investigator, Su Xiao shouldn’t have been able to mobilize so many people; this was a special approval from Yukinori Shinohara.

As for why Yukinori gave the special approval, it was simply because of his strength.

Moreover, cleaning up the ghouls of District 14 held considerable allure for Yukinori Shinohara.

The convoy arrived near the auction site twenty minutes later. CCG members quickly disembarked, first hiding the vehicles before gradually surrounding the auction site.

All of these individuals had experience expelling ghouls, moving silently in the pitch-dark night.

"Mister Bai Ye~?"

The voice of Shuuzou Suzuya came through Su Xiao’s Bluetooth earpiece.

"How are things?"

"We’ve reached our positions, and there’s no anomaly for now. Shall we charge in?"

The eerie laughter of Shuuzou Suzuya came through the earpiece.

"Stay put."

Su Xiao switched channels to contact Maniwa Haruo.

"Haruo, report the situation."

"No anomalies; we’re well concealed."

Su Xiao continued to contact others; he had stationed people to monitor all three exits of the auction site.

It was now half-past nine at night, a little over an hour before the auction started, and it wasn’t the time for action yet.

"First-class Bai Ye, your mask."

A CCG member clad in a black combat suit brought over a mask.

During large-scale mobilizations, CCG members dressed like this, with the heavy combat suits minimizing casualties.

Taking the mask, Su Xiao put it on and advanced towards the auction site.

The front entrance of the auction site was tightly shut, with only the back door open.

Ghouls couldn’t openly hold an auction, especially not in District 14.

Approaching the back door of the auction site, Su Xiao took out a small canister spray and sprayed some onto his clothes.

This was a scent-masking spray that concealed human identity from ghouls.

Most ghouls had a nose like a dog’s; if Su Xiao entered the auction site directly, he would undoubtedly be discovered.

His plan to clean up the auction site was simple. He would first enter the auction site alone; once the auction began, he would seal the three exits, turning it into a slaughter feast.

"Password."

As Su Xiao was about to enter the auction site through the back door, a burly ghoul blocked him.

"Human blood T3.ST."

Upon reciting the peculiar password, the ghoul allowed passage.

"No disturbances, or else you’ll be done for."

The ghoul’s threat didn’t concern Su Xiao; he was there to kill ghouls.

Entering the ghoul auction, the scene was unlike daytime; the appearance of the auction site transformed at night.

Before the auction began, the hall was filled with pounding music, with even a neon light temporarily installed in a corner of the ceiling.

In the dim environment with dazzling lights and deafening music...

The ghouls fearlessly reveled, oblivious to being discovered.

Under the flashing colorful lights and the pounding music, ghouls indulged in a wild carnival.

Crazy, hysterical; this was Su Xiao’s impression of these ghouls.

These ghouls lived each day as if there were no tomorrow, and thus they partied recklessly.
