ââHe carried a large board, seemingly a drawing board.
"Yes, boss."
Jiu responded, stood up, and followed the other out of the office.
What is field duty?
Jiu thought silently to herself.
She followed Qinglang to the end of the corridor, opened a room, walked in, and stood on the Teleportation Array.
"To the rooftop."
Qing Hu said to the person managing the Laws.
The Teleportation Law was activated.
In an instant.
Jiu and Qinglang were transmitted to the rooftop of the Myriad Realms Survival Conference building.
"The Myriad Realms Survival Conference building sits on a special coordinate, from which one can see beyond the Myriad Realms."
Qinglang introduced.
Jiu looked upwards, only to see tides constantly flowing in the depths of the sky.
They were deep black, unfathomable tides of Strength.
They seemed to be attracted by some force, constantly surging and flowing deeper into the sky, turning into an ever more intense black.
"Is thisâLaws?" Jiu couldnât help but ask.
"The Laws of the Myriad Realms and the Laws outside of them are intertwined, forming something stronger than LawsâAether."
"Aether is a twisted force formed by Multiple Dharma Aspects, extremely violent, any ordinary strong person entering it would die."
"Even Saints cannot stay inside for long."
"Howeverârecently itâs rumored that humans can control Multiple Laws, forming Aether."
"What lies beyond Aether?" Jiu asked.
"The Other Shore."
Qinglang spat out two words.
Jiu shrugged and continued to watch the boundless Aether.
They were like a profound ocean, exuding an aura that could destroy All Things at any moment.
Tch.
Without the high-dimensional Holy Ladder, how could one cross the Aether?
Jiu thought silently.
"Coming." Qinglang suddenly said.
In the depths of the sky appeared a small black dot.
It was a Saint Level powerhouse!
He quickly descended, landing on the rooftop of the building, but placed a box on the ground.
"Thank you for your hard work." Qinglang said respectfully.
"Hmm, todayâs item should be safe, evaluated as D-levelâmake sure to take it back and make a record."
The Saint instructed, and without waiting for Qinglang to speak, flew straight up into the sky and disappeared.
Only then did Qinglang step forward to open the box.
Inside the box lay a black, dried finger.
"Boss, whatâs this?"
Jiu asked.
"Something floating in Aetherâit may be from the Myriad Realms or from the Other Shore."
"The work of the Ether Affairs Department is to record items retrieved from Aether and archive them." Qinglang said.
"This is very dangerous," Jiu couldnât help but say, "If itâs from the Other Shore, wouldnât we be directly killed?"
"The Saint has already appraised it, D-level means this finger is a Normal item, not threatening." Qinglang said.
"What if thereâs a threat?" Jiu persistently asked.
ââNo way, this concerns oneâs own life.
"Items above A-level are not handled by us, but by other more powerful departments." Qinglang said.
Jiu sighed with relief.
Thatâs good.
She looked at the finger, and next to it appeared the faintly glowing lines:
"Rahuâs Finger."
"In disguise."
"Not recognizable without gate power."
"*&&...&...&*...%&"
"..."
Jiu suddenly felt her head ache.
In disguise?
A finger that can disguise, and yet the Saint evaluated it as safe!
ââSafe my ass!
"Whatâs wrong?" Qinglang asked with concern.
"Nothing, just a little dizzy." Jiu immediately laughed it off.
"There are certain risks in field dutyâalthough thereâs actually not much risk, after going out today, you can rest."
"Thank you, boss, for taking care of me." Jiu instantly showed gratitude and said with clasped hands.
"Hmm, Little Hua is indeed quite dominating, donât hold it against her."
Little Hua?
Isnât that the ugly fat woman.
"As long as she doesnât bother me." Jiu said.
Qinglang simply laid it out:
"Actually, our Ether Affairs Department is quite relaxed, with good benefits."
"So generally people canât get in, only with a Saintâs intervention can a newcomer join."
Jiu nodded.
ââSo, thereâs a Saint behind Little Hua.
Sure enough, Qinglang continued:
"If you upset Little Hua, we canât intervene, but if Little Hua retaliates against you, it would not be convenient for us to reprimand her."
"So can you avoid provoking her in the future?"
This is the attitude of the department leadership.
Caught between the Saints, they indeed find it hard to manage.
Jiu smiled and said:
"Boss, you know our Split Bee Clan doesnât like causing trouble, as long as she doesnât bother me, I wonât care about her."
"Thatâs all thatâs needed." Qinglang sighed with relief.
He picked up the box and called out to the staff nearby:
"Teleport."
"Yes!"
The Space Array was activated.
In the next instant.
They arrived at a new place.
"What is this place?"
Jiu glanced around.
It was an extremely large room, filled with various crystalline vessels preserving all sorts of items.
"Relax, this is the D-level warehouse."
Qinglang handed the box to an employee.
"Boss is right, newcomer," the employee said with a relaxed expression, "Generally speaking, D-level items are not dangerous."
Under Jiuâs watch.
A square glowing crystal sealed the finger.
The staff on duty recorded and observed the finger.
"What exactly is this finger?"
Jiu pursued.
"No idea, nor is there a need to know, only items above B-level are thoroughly investigated by Saints." Qinglang said.
"So, D-level ones are ignored?"
"We can even discard them without concern, but since theyâre from Aetherâaccording to the procedure, just seal them in the warehouse."
