Chapter 820 -459: Magnetic Pile Monster

During these past few days in Gaosheng City, Yan Junze and Zhang Xiaomo indeed felt very exhausted. The number of paranormal incidents surged drastically within seven days, causing the 4747 hotline to be constantly overwhelmed with calls.

Fortunately, thanks to the support from the Tianmeng District exorcist team, as well as additional exorcists dispatched from other cities, a formidable suppression was deployed. Even though the number of incidents increased sharply, the pace of exorcism was extremely fast.

The entire Gaosheng City was thrown into panic, yet people also witnessed the strenuous efforts of the exorcist organizations, and all residents cooperated fully.

Yan Junze and Xiaomo barely got three hours of sleep each day, and even that was snatched in fits and starts inside their car.

However, the two of them were tackling the hard nuts to crack – those events that were more peculiar and of higher difficulty level, which were mainly left to them and the two four-star exorcists, Mei Lianhua and Huang Wenjian.

Other exorcists were in charge of sweeping through the slightly less menacing occurrences. Nonetheless, during this process, three exorcists faced their demise.

Furthermore, seven exorcists were tricked by strangenesses which sought out their substitutes using various eerie methods. They were later saved by Yan Junze who rushed to their aid, breaking the spells and rescuing them from the grasp of the strangenesses.

This time around, the name of Yan Junze had truly resonated throughout Tianmeng’s exorcist circles; during the exorcism process, these people realised that even Mei and Huang, the four-star exorcists, treated Yan Junze with great respect after meeting him.

This implied that Yan Junze’s capabilities might surpass even those of Mei and Huang.

Two days later, Guo Youliang, who was not yet fit for discharge, arrived, which injected a robust stimulus into the exorcism operations of Gaosheng City.

Old Guo was fiercely dedicated; he had barely escaped with his life after fighting the Reaper Morrison last time, and now, he hastily made his way over, significantly easing the pressure on Yan Junze.

Soon, widespread incidents started to diminish, with a few scattered strangenesses still lurking around.

However, after this battle, one could imagine that there might be a short-term void of paranormal activity in Gaosheng City.

By then, this place might become the safest city in Great Capital Huaying.

Of course, the price paid this time was enormous and freighted with tragedy.

After the tough cases had been mostly resolved, Yan Junze and Xiaomo finally had time to rest, while the remaining less powerful and less dangerous strangenesses were left to other teams of exorcists to eliminate one by one.

And it was at this time that Yan Junze received a call from Xiaomo’s father, Zhang Chengjing.

Due to the relationship with his daughter, Zhang Chengjing evidently made a point of looking out for Yan Junze, thinking of him first whenever there was an issue within the team.

Yan Junze activated speakerphone, and the three of them – himself, Xiaomo, and Zhang Chengjing – chatted idly for a while, discussing the current situation in Gaosheng City.

Subsequently, Zhang Chengjing said, “These past two days, a strangeness emerged in the Luoxia District. Are you interested in taking a look?”

“What kind of strangeness?” Yan Junze asked.

“Here’s the situation: in Luoxia District, there’s a White Star Nuclear Power Station that had a leakage accident a few days ago, but they managed to suppress it quietly. During the incident, someone got close to the leaking reactor, and due to the inaction of the power station’s higher-ups, that person died an agonizing death. The very day he died, he turned into a strangeness with a powerful obsession,” Zhang Chengjing explained.

“Is this strangeness particularly special?” Yan Junze showed interest.

“Very special,” Zhang Chengjing nodded, “Currently, the nuclear power station is shut down. After turning into a strangeness, this guy killed all the company’s top executives overnight, and even made one of our stationed exorcists at the power station flee in defeat. Most importantly, there are no other strangenesses existing in its vicinity now.”

“Why?” Zhang Xiaomo couldn’t help but ask.

“Because it possesses a powerful magnetic field interference ability, capable of instantly pulverizing the magnetic fields of other strangenesses,” Zhang Chengjing said, “As of now, within at least a five-mile radius around it, not a single other strangeness remains.”

“Damn, this guy is like a real Sweeper!” Yan Junze exclaimed.

“That’s why the higher-ups said we must try everything possible to reclaim it. We’ve named it the Magnetic Pile Monster. I know you’re adept at the Buddhist style of exorcism; you could give it a try, see if you’re able to convert this guy, instead of straight-up exterminating it,” Zhang Chengjing said.

“Reclaim, absolutely!” Yan Junze agreed without hesitation.

“Xiaomo, you follow Guo Youliang for these next few days, don’t go anywhere else, and get some good rest,” Zhang Chengjing was clearly also very concerned about his daughter’s health, knowing she had been overworked during this time.

“I got it, dad,” Zhang Xiaomo nodded.

“Once Junze has dealt with the Magnetic Pile Monster, you two come back for a visit. Let’s have a family gathering,” Zhang Chengjing said before hanging up the phone.

“Is your dad planning to arrange a wedding for us or something?” Yan Junze asked.

Zhang Xiaomo gave him a look, “We’ll talk about it after you graduate.”

Yan Junze spread his hands, “With things the way they are, do you think I can still focus on my studies?”

“What, you don’t want to study anymore?” Zhang Xiaomo asked.

“I’m considering taking a leave of absence,” Yan Junze, toying with the special exorcist badge issued by the Exorcist Brigade, said, “Not everyone can get this thing, after all; I should apply all my abilities where they count.”

“Guess what I smell?” Zhang Xiaomo said with a smile.

“What?” Yan Junze was curious.

“A strong whiff of showing off,” Zhang Xiaomo covered her mouth, laughing even more happily. Then she suddenly paused and asked, “What are you looking at?”

Yan Junze put down his phone, a mischievous smile on his face, “I’m checking if there’s enough time before we head to Luoxia District.”
