Versatile Mage: Heavy Water Overwhelms the World

Chapter 140 The surge of deaths

The withered bones lost their support on their backs. After more than ten years of peace, the withered bones were scattered on the ground, making a crunching sound.

The wooden door was fully pushed open, revealing the interior of the mayor's office.

The curtains in the office were not closed, and the hot sunlight filled the huge office, giving a wide view.

At this time, facing Nan Yi and Ye Shan was the mayor's marble desk. There was a huge dent on the cracked marble desk, which should have been caused by external force.

There was no one sitting on the office chair behind him. On the left side of the office was a black sofa. There was a small display window next to the sofa. There seemed to be writings scattered in the display window. On the right is a row of messy bookshelves.

Nan Yi walked in slowly, the water on his body not stopping for a moment. Ye Shan also walked in and looked at everything here carefully.

"I'll go take a look over there." Ye Shan said and walked towards the bookshelf.

"Yeah." Nan Yi walked towards the desk directly in front of him.

The broken desk can be seen at a glance, with only some scattered small objects, pens, seals, ink pads, etc.

Seeing that there was nothing valuable on the table, Nan Yi walked behind the desk to see what was in the drawer.

This marble desk has only one drawer and three levels in total.

The drawer on the first floor seemed to be locked, but maybe it was because it had not been used for a long time. Nan Yi just pulled it hard and opened it.

A yellowed report lay quietly in the drawer on the first floor.

【Census Report】

Nan Yi picked up the report and opened it lightly to read it.

This report is from the year following the expansion of the power station. The report was reported by the census personnel of Jianyu Village after conducting a census of the entire Daozui Island population.

The report summarizes the population changes on Knife Mouth Island that year. In particular, it was pointed out that the number of deaths due to work-related injuries has increased sharply this year.

[After investigation and verification, 90% of the work-related injuries and deaths in ten enterprises directly affiliated to Jianyu, including water plants, Jianyu Construction, and Jianyu Water Conservancy, came from power stations. 】

Then the report writer reported the situation to the mayor and asked the mayor how to deal with it.

But since this document has been sealed in the mayor's office drawer for so many years, Nan Yi can know what the mayor means.

It seems that the government's instructions should be behind the power station's co-prosperity plan. I just don’t know what this co-prosperity plan is about?

Nan Yi continued to open the second drawer, and there was a stack of documents inside. Nan Yi flipped through it, but they were all insignificant documents.

As for the third drawer, it is empty.

After reading the drawer, Nan Yi picked up the report and walked towards the sofa on the right, wanting to see what was in the window next to the sofa.

However, most of the display windows contained normal medals, certificates, etc. Nan Yi glanced at it twice and then turned around to find Ye Shan.

Ye Shan had just finished here. Seeing Nan Yi coming, Ye Shan also took the initiative to say.

"I didn't find anything here. How are you doing there? Did you find anything?"

Nan Yi handed the census in his hand to Ye Shan.

After a while, Ye Shan glanced through it briefly and frowned slightly.

"There is too little information." Ye Shan shook her head and looked out the window helplessly.

Outside the window, Lin Xi and others were still looking after the instruments, which were still working.

"Go back." Nan Yi said.

"Yes." Ye Shan nodded in agreement.

Immediately, the two returned along the original path and returned to where the instrument was.

"Hey! Did you find anything? Tell me quickly! Give me some relief!" As soon as he saw Nan Yi and Ye Shan coming back, Lin Xi, who was watching out of boredom, immediately came over.

As Ye Shan analyzed the series of documents just now for Lin Xi, time passed slowly.

"Dip-dip-"

The long ending sound of the instrument sounded, and Ye Shan also began to put away the instrument.

Everyone quickly returned to the original route, and finally completed the rendezvous with Zheng Shan's team.

It was just four o'clock in the afternoon, and there were still more than two hours before nightfall. After discussion, everyone chose to continue to the next location and try to complete it before dark.

The next location is the library and magic association, which is also the geographical center of Pointy Fish Village, with schools and business districts within its scope.

Since this distance is not very close, in order to save time, several wind mages also started taking turns to speed up the team.

The street scenes along the way were almost the same as those seen before. Because they retreated in time, there was not much clutter on the road.

Most of the damage was apparently caused by subsequent demonic invasions after the humans retreated.

"Let's separate here. When in danger, safety must be the first priority. Retreat if you can. If you find that the other party's signal is interrupted, come back here immediately. If you don't see anyone, go to the map to support." Zheng Shan quickly ordered.

Immediately, the two teams separated again. This time, Ye Shan launched her wind track, and everyone followed Ye Shan in front and rushed to the library quickly.

About ten minutes later, everyone arrived at the location of the library.

Unlike the previous Jianyu Government Building, the structure of the library is relatively simple.

The three-story library does not have a dome design, so it looks much shorter than the government building. The earth-yellow appearance finally has a rustic atmosphere.

"Just right here." Ye Shan said while looking at the map.

A moment later, with the green light flashing, it also symbolized that Zheng Shan and the others had also reached their destination and started detection.

Ye Shan did not apply to explore the library this time. After all, even the reference room of the government building and the mayor's office could only find so little information, let alone a civilian library.

Time passed little by little in the shift of the orange-red sun, and half of the sun was no longer visible.

It was less than half an hour before the end of the detection. Everyone did not relax their vigilance because of the passage of time. Instead, they became more cautious. No one wanted to have an accident at this time.

After all, it is almost nightfall, and just because the demons are not active during the day does not mean that they are also inactive at night.

"The connection was interrupted!" Suddenly, Lin Xi's exclamation broke the originally peaceful atmosphere.

After everyone heard Lin Xi's voice, they also saw the signal that they had disconnected and were working alone.

"Pack up the instruments! Go back immediately!" Nan Yi was very decisive and terminated the detection.

Everyone was very active and no one had any objections. If it was a minor accident, it would just be a waste of time, but if something really happened, the problem would be serious.

After a while, Ye Shan packed up the instruments.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Shan released the third-level wind track, intending to lead everyone back at full speed.

"I'll go to the front first." After Li Ruo said a word, the shadow star trails and wind star trails above her delicate body flashed one after another, and the figure turned into a black shadow and shuttled crazily among the shadows.
