King of Assassins-Chapter 793 - 586 Ability

Exiting the cyberspace, Gao Xuan's consciousness returned to his body.

This process gives a very distinct feeling of transfer in personal awareness. It's like when a person steps off a merry-go-round, they feel light and weak all over.

When logging into cyberspace, the consciousness directly enters it, leaving the body with only biological instincts but no conscious control.

If at this point you encounter an enemy, you can only be at their mercy. Therefore, logging into cyberspace carries considerable risk. You must choose a safe location to log in.

Gao Xuan's consciousness returned to his body, also feeling somewhat uneasy. However, this discomfort did not really affect him.

Though his Divine Soul Power is weak, it is extremely pure. This transfer of the Divine Soul is not a problem for him at all.

However, with Wei Ying still watching outside, Gao Xuan couldn't act too special. He lay there, letting himself go blank, and waited for two minutes before slowly sitting up.

Next door, Wei Ying had been watching Gao Xuan all along. She asked the old woman beside her, "Director Zhang, is there anything wrong with him?"

The old woman glanced at the densely packed complex data on a nearby screen, "No problem, he is in very good condition. It seems that the stimulus of the Evil God's Apostle's spiritual attack has awakened his soul potential."

Wei Ying asked thoughtfully, "Was his swift and accurate shot that killed the Evil God's Apostle also due to death-triggered potential?"

"This is very normal. When facing extreme pressure, people either completely collapse or unleash their potential. Especially on the battlefield, this sort of thing is very common."

Director Zhang said, "I have contacted the other side, and they have also confirmed there are no mental issues with him."

"Thank you, Director Zhang."

Wei Ying expressed her gratitude with a polite smile. This kind of small matter doesn't require her attention, but having just become the Field Department head, she is very cautious about having someone under her influenced by the Evil God, causing a scandal.

Since she was not familiar with Director Zhang, with the business concluded, she quickly got up and took her leave.

A few field agents accompanied Gao Xuan, and the group returned to the ward together.

Wei Ying dismissed the field agents first, then said to Gao Xuan, "The detailed inspection on you is for your own good. Do you understand?"

"I understand." Gao Xuan nodded, comprehending the woman's reasoning.

At Wei Ying's age, parachuting into the Field Department as head, she still lacks experience, and she handles matters too forcefully.

Just like the crackdown on the Wolf God followers, ten teams were actually enough. The two Wolf God Apostles on the other side are somewhat skilled, but only somewhat.

If it weren't for Iron Shield being cowardly, their team could have dealt with the opponents.

This inspection was the same. It was just normal procedure, but Wei Ying insisted on coming personally, bringing along several fully armed individuals. It was specially formal and solemn.

Wei Ying also realized she might have exaggerated. Her attitude earlier was overly serious, so she tried to display a calm demeanor saying, "In this operation, your merit in killing the Wolf God Apostle is significant. I've noted all of this. You rest and recover, and I'll grant you ten days of paid leave."

She paused and added, "Starting today, your rank is elevated to P3."

"Thank you, Minister." Gao Xuan sincerely expressed his gratitude.

Promotion is always a good thing, especially in the company, where rank represents status, power, and money.

Though P3 is still a regular staff level, its salary is 60% higher than P2, and the corresponding benefits and privileges are also noticeably improved. For Gao Xuan at this moment, a promotion is the most practical gain.

"You have great potential, and I am very optimistic about you..."

Wei Ying encouraged him with a few more words before she turned to leave.

Gao Xuan lay on the hospital bed and did not get up to see her off, only watched her leave the ward.

Wei Ying has abilities and intelligence, but she is too immature. Having dealings with such a person, being too respectful will make her underestimate him. The key is to demonstrate capability.

Besides, Wei Ying is young, has principles, and values her reputation, and she has a soft heart.

If the previous Field Department head were in charge, he wouldn't care about his life or death. In his eyes, all subordinates are mere tools.

After Wei Ying left, Gao Xuan started to seriously consider his next steps.

The invitation from the white-haired Paladin is actually a very good opportunity.

For a thousand years, the Holy Hall has become the Alliance's most powerful organization, with influence throughout the Alliance, and no one dares to provoke it.

By becoming a member of the Holy Hall, you immediately gain access to various resources. You can choose any Secret Technique for cultivation. Financial resources are more than sufficient. Additionally, there are various genetic drugs, body modifications, and so on. Strength can leap substantially in a short time.

Yet, a few issues remain. The Holy Hall has very strict requirements for Paladins, who must adhere to the Hall's sacred laws. The Holy Hall also maintains very tight control over its members, with various assessments every year. It's challenging to find time for personal endeavors.

Especially for members of the Holy Hall in the Outer Star Realm, they become the primary targets for the Evil God's attacks. The danger greatly increases.

Gao Xuan was not worried about his identity being exposed. Even if Nuwa became a god, she would not be omnipotent and could not directly recognize his Divine Soul.

It's just that being under Nuwa's close watch is ultimately inconvenient.

Weighing the pros and cons, Gao Xuan decided not to go to the Holy Hall for now. There are many ways to obtain Secret Techniques for cultivation, and there's no need to go to the Holy Hall.

Even the company has cultivation methods. Once you reach P5 Level, you are eligible to select a cultivation Secret Technique. In cyberspace, numerous Secret Techniques are available, though they carry some risk.

If all else fails, the Black Market has options for purchase too. With money, most things in this world can be bought.

According to existing cultivation theories, he has actually reached the Bronze Stage, which means his Divine Soul has awakened.

This stage is crucial. As long as the Divine Soul awakens and the existence of the Divine Soul is acknowledged, only then is the next step possible.
