Start By Parsing The Sun

Chapter 197: [196] This world ultimately revolves around important figures.

In an instant.

A squad of black-armored soldiers acted without hesitation.

"Woo! Woo!"

The piercing sound tore through the calm.

Six short spears shot out.

At this moment, the distance between the two sides was only thirty meters. With the speed of the spear throw, almost in the instant of the throw, the deputy chief of the transformed god warrior, Deng Xi, was hit.

"Bang! Bang!"

The sound of impact rang continuously.

Deng Xi's figure shook violently, retreating several steps in succession.

The group of soldiers all had a change in expression.

Under normal circumstances, even if wearing a full set of black armor at such a close distance, the kinetic energy contained in the short spears could easily penetrate the armor.

But at this moment, this person was not wearing armor, yet the black scales on his body actually blocked the spears, with only a small section of the spear tip piercing through.

Deng Xi groaned, quickly shaking his body.

The short spears fell, and blood immediately gushed out from the wound. Then, the scales quickly grew, and in the blink of an eye, the wound returned to its original state.

From this small detail, one can see how strong the defensive power and body recovery ability of the Satyr tribe's god warriors are.

Deng Xi grinned, his tone extremely arrogant, "Today, I will slaughter you damn Wan Hao people!"

Cheng Han's face showed a strange expression.

Just based on you?

You experienced an ancestral dream and obtained an incomplete god warrior inheritance, but do you not know your own capabilities?

"Bang!"

Deng Xi forcefully kicked the ground, transforming into a large bird and pouncing towards a group of black-armored soldiers in mid-air.

This is the "Deng Que Style"!

"Woo! Woo!"

The second wave of spears thrown by another group of soldiers grazed past Deng Xi.

Deng Xi's leap was timed almost perfectly, just avoiding the spear attack.

This also indicates that the transformation of the god warrior not only greatly enhances this person's physical qualities but also significantly improves their combat awareness.

Unfortunately, it was only "almost perfect."

Because Cheng Han was here.

He coldly shouted, "Come down!"

Deng Xi, in mid-air, suddenly flashed a bright green light on his body, followed by a piercing scream.

"Ah~"

In the next instant.

A horrifying scene unfolded.

"Poof! Poof!"

Several thick vines suddenly drilled out from the spot where Deng Xi was shot earlier. They rapidly grew, instantly entangling his hands and feet.

"Bang!"

Deng Xi fell to the ground, unable to move his body.

This sudden change stunned everyone.

Many people even showed fear on their faces.

Because in just a short moment, Deng Xi's physique had "shrunk" by a large margin.

He was a burly man like a bear just now, but now he had become a skinny and emaciated consumptive ghost. This was clearly the man-eating vine that feeds on flesh and blood!

It's too terrifying!

Cheng Han beckoned at the vines with his finger, "Come here!"

One end of several vines was inserted into the ground, while the other end rapidly grew more than ten meters, lifting Deng Xi up and forcibly arranging him into the shape of the character "大".

Earlier, Cheng Han returned from the handle of the Spirit Leaf and, on the way, observed the Divine Banyan counterattacking the Terratitan, greatly improving his control over plants.

Just now, Deng Xi was injured by a short spear. He used his extraordinary power to condense a few extremely tiny seeds of transcendence and quietly buried them in Deng Xi's wound.

This is precisely the new method added to the Divine Seal, silently and secretly attacking the enemy.

"You bastard!"

Deng Xi knew he was undoubtedly going to die and cursed fiercely.

This guy even moved his throat, trying to spit a thick phlegm at Cheng Han.

Cheng Han's gaze flickered and he lightly snorted.

A vine swung rapidly and heavily struck Deng Xi's right cheek.

"Crack!"

A loud sound.

Deng Xi's cheek instantly swelled up high, most of his teeth were knocked out, and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.

This person's appearance looked extremely miserable.

The onlookers were all stunned.

The surroundings were so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Shen Wenxian, the deputy magistrate of the Council of Governance, originally had a lot of dissatisfaction with Cheng Han in his heart, but at this moment, witnessing such a strange and terrifying secret technique, all that remained in his heart was full of awe.

Cheng Han looked at Deng Xi and sighed, "Instead of being a good deputy magistrate, you were tempted by the small benefits of the divine god and followed the divine god down a dark path. What a pity."

Those who accept the inheritance of the divine warriors, although they gain stronger power, it is not without a price. The inheritance itself is a kind of soul imprint, equivalent to the most thorough brainwashing.

Deng Xi's eyes showed a look of hatred and he mumbled unclearly, "We have... the protection of our ancestors... we will eventually take back... our world!"

Cheng Han seemed to be speaking to Deng Xi, but also explaining to others, "Thirty thousand years ago, the powers of the three major divine gods were at their peak, and the Satyr tribe was still defeated miserably.

"Now, the three major divine gods have been suppressed by the Divine Banyan for tens of thousands of years. Even if one divine god is about to break free, the overall strength of the Satyr tribe has declined too much compared to before. How can you win?"

During the time he spent in the Spirit Branch, he carefully observed that the soldiers of the Scarlet Armor Army under the Mysterious Palace were not too nervous about the awakening of the divine gods.

Seeing through a small hole.

The top experts of the Wan Hao people must have been prepared for war, having beaten the Satyr people into dead dogs tens of thousands of years ago, and now they will only beat them into dead dogs again.

What is there to fear?

Cheng Han's tone was filled with deep disdain, "In the eyes of the divine gods, you are nothing more than disposable toilet paper, understand?"

Deng Xi was furious, "You..."

Before he could finish his words.

He abruptly stopped.

A vine flashed and wrapped around his head, forcefully twisting it.

"Crack!"

Accompanied by a strange sound, his head turned 180 degrees.

The divine light in Deng Xi's eyes quickly dissipated.

The vine quickly withered and broke into pieces.

"Bang!"

The body fell heavily to the ground.

Facing downwards, but with the face towards the night sky, the eyes were still wide open, but they were empty.

Cheng Han calmly explained, "Deng Xi has become a divine warrior, with extremely powerful strength. The prison of the Inspection Office cannot hold him. On-the-spot execution is the best course of action."

Without the arbitration of the Arbitration Office, arbitrarily executing a deputy magistrate is a serious violation, but everyone remained silent.

Cheng Han waved his hand, "Continue with the oath."

Before long.

Over a hundred inspectors completed the oath.

Among them, four people were found to have problems.

Cheng Han immediately dismissed these few people from their positions on the spot and ordered them to be detained.

He had the authority personally appointed by the Xuan Pavilion, and with the power to kill a deputy magistrate, no one dared to disobey his orders.

A group of inspectors rushed forward, turning their colleagues from earlier into suspects.

Thus far.

The first step of this plan, "internal security," has successfully taken its first step.

Cheng Han looked at Deputy Governor Shen Wenxian again, his tone becoming slightly more polite: "According to the rules, I should have paid a visit to the Grand Governor."

"But I have just taken over as the acting director, and there are countless internal affairs to attend to in the office. I am temporarily unable to pay a visit, so please apologize to the Grand Governor on my behalf."

He knew very well that the acting director was just a temporary position. As long as he stabilized the situation in Anhua City, he could retire with success, so he didn't need to care about anyone's face.

Shen Wenxian nodded obediently, "Alright."

Deputy Director Duan Zhuohui asked cautiously, "Director Cheng, are you going to the inspection office now?"

Cheng Han thought for a moment and replied, "When I came to Anhua City last time to handle the 'extraordinary creature cannibalism' case, I visited the 'Winter Garden' halfway through. Let's go there."

Duan Zhuohui was a little confused, "Are you going to Winter Garden for sightseeing now?"

In his heart, the deputy director muttered to himself: Is this new director so casual in his work? On his first day in office, he's actually going to Winter Garden instead of inspecting the office!

Shen Wenxian's face darkened as he listened.

You have time to go to Winter Garden, but no time to visit the Grand Governor. This guy really doesn't take the Council of Ministers seriously.

Cheng Han glanced at Duan Zhuohui and instructed, "Summon the commanders of each outpost to Winter Garden one by one. I need to have a private conversation with them."

Duan Zhuohui suddenly realized, "Understood."

The deputy director finally understood that the new director seemed to be treating Winter Garden as his office.

As for why he was doing this, do important people need a reason for their actions?

*

Fifteen minutes later.

Cheng Han once again met the owner of Winter Garden, Fang Qinghuai.

Upon learning that the new director of the inspection office had arrived, the Fang family immediately asked the visitors to leave Winter Garden as quickly as possible and even offered a compensation as an apology.

Last time Cheng Han visited this famous greenhouse garden in Anhua City, the attitude of the Fang family was respectful, but their intention to make connections was more prominent.

But this time, Fang Qinghuai's expression was clearly filled with fear.

His son, Fang Tingyuan, didn't even dare to look Cheng Han in the eye.

There was no doubt.

The incident at the city gate had already reached the ears of this father and son, and the act of casually executing a deputy director had greatly shocked them.

Fang Qinghuai appeared cautious, "Director Cheng, I believe you haven't had lunch yet. Do you need us to prepare a meal for you?"

Cheng Han didn't hold back, "Please do! Also prepare a meal for my colleagues."

Fang Qinghuai nodded repeatedly, "It is the greatest honor for the Fang family to entertain Director Cheng and the soldiers of the Black Armor Army."

He pulled his son over and whispered, "You personally oversee the kitchen and make sure they prepare the lunch as quickly as possible without any mistakes, understand?"

Fang Tingyuan quickly left.

Fang Qinghuai's attitude towards Cheng Han was even more attentive than towards his own father, "Director Cheng, it will take some time to prepare lunch. Would you like to visit Winter Garden?"

Cheng Han shook his head, "No need! Please find a vacant space in the garden and set up some tables and chairs. I need to meet with my subordinates."

Fang Qinghuai immediately complied and personally brought people to move the best tables and chairs from his home.

Soon enough.

A unique garden office was ready.

Five minutes later.

Fang Qinghuai saw three outpost commanders rushing over, anxiously waiting outside the garden office, nervously waiting for the new director to receive them.

A thought suddenly popped into his mind: With the presence of Director Cheng, Winter Garden might truly become a famous attraction in Anhua City.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Winter Garden had a good reputation.

But in the eyes of high-ranking officials, it was just like that.

After all, it was just a greenhouse garden that could be built with money. How could it be taken seriously by real wealthy people?

Fang Qinghuai watched as one outpost commander entered the office and couldn't help but feel emotional.

If Director Cheng achieves results, in the future, when people mention Director Cheng in Anhua City, they will definitely mention Winter Garden. Despite his years of hard work in managing Winter Garden, it couldn't compare to a few days of presence by a big shot.

He smacked his lips and gained a deep understanding of the term "big shot."

In this world, everything revolves around big shots.

Inside the garden office.

Wu Lin, the commander of the third outpost of the Anhua City Inspection Bureau, met the youngest director in the bureau's history.

Before he could even salute, he immediately heard a sentence: "Commander Wu, the Inspection Bureau currently has a vacancy for a deputy director. Are you interested?"

Wu Lin was a bit stunned.

Cheng Han confidently painted a big picture: "In the next month, I will nominate the most outstanding and hardworking outpost commander to serve as the deputy director."

He paused for a moment and deliberately added: "I was personally appointed as the director by the Xuan Pavilion. Xuan Pavilion will never veto any of my nominations."

Wu Lin's heart instantly warmed up.

Cheng Han asked directly, "Do you know what to do?"

Wu Lin cautiously replied, "I will do whatever you ask me to do."

Cheng Han's face turned serious: "What I need is not a puppet, but someone who can really work and solve problems!"

Wu Lin's mind was quite agile, and he immediately responded, "I will closely monitor the situation in this outpost and promptly eliminate any Sartre spies."

"I will also make every effort to investigate the situation in the area under the jurisdiction of this outpost and strive to identify any restless Sartre descendants to maintain stability in the area."

Cheng Han reminded, "When necessary, don't hesitate!"

The implication was - killing was allowed!

With Anhua City in such chaos, with more than twenty officials being killed one after another, it was impossible to stop this demonic wind without killing a group of people.

Wu Lin understood the implication and vowed, "I will follow your instructions and restore the stability of Anhua City as soon as possible."

Cheng Han nodded in satisfaction and patted the other person's shoulder, "I see you as the next deputy director."

Previously, killing Deng Xi was to establish authority, and now using the position of deputy director as a temptation could stimulate a group of outpost commanders to work hard. This was called making the most of everything.

"Smack!"

Wu Lin was patted, feeling that his bones had become much softer.

He was about to flatter a few words when he heard the words of dismissal, "Alright! The affairs of the outpost are busy, so go back to work."

Wu Lin dared not disobey and quickly took his leave.

---

The next hour.

Fang Qinghuai witnessed the majesty of the new director with his own eyes.

These outpost commanders, who were admired by ordinary people, lined up obediently in their own garden, nervously entered the office, and then came out relieved.

When it was the turn of the commander of the eleventh outpost, Fang Qinghuai witnessed the process of a commander becoming a prisoner.

"Ah~"

A scream broke the tranquility of the garden.

Fang Qinghuai trembled in fear.

The imposing voice of Director Cheng resounded from afar.

"Bring this dog out for me!"

Fang Qinghuai immediately saw a group of black-armored soldiers rushing into the office, dragging Commander Li Shicheng out like a dead dog.

And it was quite literal dragging.

Li Shicheng's legs were grabbed by someone and he was dragged away like that, constantly rubbing his back and head on the ground, looking extremely miserable.

This person didn't know what had happened to him, his body kept twitching, his face turned into a strange green color, and fresh blood kept flowing from his mouth and nose.

Fang Qinghuai couldn't help shaking his head and whispered, "I heard that Commander Li has connections in the Black Mountain Camp and is usually very arrogant. But when he encountered Director Cheng, he was finished with just one sentence."

Fang Tingyuan stood behind his father and whispered in agreement, "None of the previous directors were as formidable as Director Cheng."

Just at that moment.

Deputy Director Duan Zhuohui hurriedly walked over, shouting loudly before entering the office, "Director, something happened in the west of the city!"
