Chapter 15 - Chapter 15: Redemption Second Squad

"Don't look, destroying this one in your house won't do any good."

Aunt Wang said teasingly: "Mid-level and above demon idols must be those that are worshipped all year round by hundreds or thousands of people."

"Like the ones used during faith ceremonies. If you can destroy one, the massive redemption power will immediately make you an entry-level strong person!"

Jiang Yuan forced a laugh: "This... let's talk about it later, later."

Demon statues during faith ceremonies?

Don't be ridiculous.

No need to guess, he knew there would be countless people there, and with the Demon Sons of the Merciful Demon Cult present, the number of fanatical believers would be terrifying. He wouldn't dare destroy it even if he had a hundred times the courage!

"Aunt Wang... Aunt, the entry-level and mid-level you mentioned are levels of strength, right? How are they distinguished?"

Jiang Yuan asked again.

Aunt Wang was about to answer—

'Knock knock knock—'

The sudden sound of knocking made Jiang Yuan's expression tense. After all, there was a security guard's corpse here. If someone found out, even ten thousand mouths couldn't explain it.

Aunt Wang raised her hand and walked outside, saying: "Don't worry, it's my people."

Jiang Yuan quickly followed.

As soon as the door opened, a tall, burly man with a short beard and a cigarette in his mouth walked in first.

Before he was fully inside, his voice rang out: "Team Leader Wang, where is he? Oh, this kid is the one, right?"

He walked up to Jiang Yuan, looked him up and down, and clicked his tongue: "Natural..."

Before he could finish, Aunt Wang coldly呵斥ed: "Shut up!"

"Do you think your voice is soft?"

The burly man's expression froze, he chuckled, and didn't speak again.

Following closely behind, several more people entered.

Two men and two women.

One young man was very handsome, but his flaw was that he wasn't tall, probably only about 1.7 meters.

The other was a slightly chubby. After glancing at Jiang Yuan, his first words upon entering were: "Xiao Fengyu, it looks like your title of Sushan City's number one handsome guy is in danger!"

Xiao Fengyu, the not-tall but very handsome young man, pouted and gave the fat man the middle finger: "Still more handsome than you!"

After the last two women entered, they closed the door.

Of the two women, one was plain-looking, about thirty years old, serious-looking, and seemed very capable.

The last girl was about the same height as Jiang Yue, slightly taller than Xiao Fengyu.

She was wearing a light green dress and small white shoes.

Her long, straight black hair and exquisite facial features made her more beautiful than a celebrity.

Her elegant, fairy-like temperament was most striking. With big deer-like eyes, she looked at Jiang Yuan curiously, with a sweet smile.

"Xiao Yuan... is it okay if I still call you that?"

Aunt Wang asked with a smile.

Jiang Yuan quickly said: "Of course, Aunt Wang."

Aunt Wang smiled and said: "I called them here to deal with the security guard's corpse."

"I have a question for you first. Would you like to join us?"

"Oh, I should probably tell you what our identities are, right?"

"We all come from a redemption organization."

"This Redeemer organization doesn't have a special name because it's a national, even global organization."

"It's an international organization jointly established by Deceivers from around the world."

"The purpose of the Redemption organization is the same as its name. We want to redeem ourselves, redeem others, and redeem the world in this demon-controlled world!"

"We belong to the Sushan City branch. I am the deputy director of the Sushan City branch and the leader of the Third Group. They are members of the Second Squad under my command."

Aunt Wang paused, her expression became serious, and she asked in a deep voice: "I'm saying this to invite you to join our Redemption organization!"

"You are a natural Deceiver, and even a natural Deceiver who independently withstood a worship ceremony. Your future has enormous growth potential. Joining us will give you the best growth!"

Aunt Wang's words made the eyes of everyone around look at Jiang Yuan change.

Natural Deceivers weren't very rare; there were two in their squad.

But natural Deceivers who hadn't joined the Redemption organization and purely relied on their own soul strength to withstand a worship ceremony...

That was extremely rare.

When Aunt Wang mentioned the "Redemption organization," Jiang Yuan had already guessed.

Of course he couldn't refuse.

Without hesitation, he nodded: "I'm willing to join!"

Aunt Wang was very satisfied: "A wise choice. Let me introduce you."

Pointing to the middle-aged strong man: "His name is Hu Zhengfeng, captain of the Second Squad."

Hu Zhengfeng grinned, his eyes shining as he looked at Jiang Yuan.

Pointing to the capable woman in her thirties: "Her name is Wang Rou, vice-captain of the Second Squad."

Pointing to the handsome, short young man: "Xiao Fengyu, member of the Second Squad."

Pointing to the smiling fat man: "Lin Le, member of the Second Squad."

Finally, pointing to the extremely beautiful girl: "Chi Zhongyue, member of the Second Squad."

Then she said to Jiang Yuan: "You will be a member of the Second Squad from now on. His name is Jiang Yuan, please get to know each other."

The last sentence was addressed to Hu Zhengfeng and the others.

Hu Zhengfeng, with a cigarette in his mouth, grinned widely: "Welcome, welcome to our Second Squad!"

"Our Second Squad now has a natural Deceiver who independently withstood a worship ceremony. We're family now, feel free to ask for help with anything!"

Wang Rou smiled: "Jiang Yuan, welcome to join us!"

Chi Zhongyue waved her small hand, beautiful and lively, with a bit of playfulness: "Welcome!"

Fatty Lin Le looked happy: "Haha, I'm finally not at the bottom of the team anymore!"

"Tsk, Jiang Yuan just joined. With his talent, he might surpass you and reach the entry level soon. What are you happy about?"

Xiao Fengyu mercilessly ed him.

Seeing that the two were about to start bickering, Aunt Wang clapped her hands and said: "Stop fooling around. First, go clean up the security guard's corpse, bloodstains, and all traces. Don't leave any clues."

"Come, Xiao Yuan, I know you still have many questions. Let me tell you more."

"Don't worry about the corpse. We're the most professional at destroying corpses and eradicating traces."

How could Jiang Yuan refuse? He indeed had a lot of questions to ask.

Hu Zhengfeng and the others began to prepare to deal with the corpse. Only then did Jiang Yuan see that they had brought several suitcases with various tools inside.

Sitting in the living room with Aunt Wang, she glanced at Hu Zhengfeng and the others who were busy, and after confirming they weren't paying attention, she whispered: "I didn't tell them that you independently withstood a worship ceremony conducted by a mid-level Seeker personally. I was afraid they would shout and attract suspicion from people outside."

"You should also try not to mention this to others in the future, including other Deceivers!"

"Of course, our Third Group and your Second Squad are fine. In the future, you can say it if you want, or not say it if you don't want to. It doesn't matter."

Jiang Yuan seemed to catch some other meaning and asked in a deep voice: "Team Leader Wang, do you mean that Deceivers are also in danger?"

"Yes and no."

Aunt Wang explained: "Like us Deceivers, there is also a profession called 'Lurker' among fanatical believers."

"Their souls are also very strong, but they have completely sold their souls to demons."

"The characteristic of Lurkers is that even if they are surrounded by Deceivers, they won't lose their sanity. They will only secretly collect valuable information and report it when they get the chance."

"Lurkers are extremely dangerous enemies. You never know who is a Lurker and who is a Deceiver."

"What is valuable information? For example, major operations by our Deceivers, the whereabouts of strong Deceivers among us, or... Deceivers like you."

"All of these will be their targets. Once they obtain your identity information and intelligence, you will either be hunted to death by fanatical believers, or... you will have to hide everywhere for the rest of your life and not show your face."

"Of course, Lurkers, like Disguisers among our Deceivers, are the rarest professions and are generally difficult to encounter."

"But we still need to be careful. Just remember this."

Jiang Yuan nodded earnestly, indicating that he understood.

"More specific information about what professions there are, the responsibilities of these professions, and different strengths will be explained in detail by someone after we go to the safe house."

"First, digest what I just told you. Now go find a hotel outside to stay. We'll take care of things here."

As if something, Jiang Yuan's expression changed and he said: "Team Leader Wang, there's something else I need to tell you."

"Besides this security guard, there's also an older security guard. I think he must also suspect me."

"Especially after this young security guard died, he will suspect me even more."

"Will he..."

Aunt Wang smiled: "I know him."

"I've been paying attention to this matter since the day your parents had the accident."

"That's why I asked you to find a place to stay alone!"

"Also, don't worry about other security guards targeting you."

"I believe... for now, he definitely won't tell anyone else."
