Sequence: The God Eater

"Mr. Qin, we have arrived at District 7. You have worked hard on this journey."

"Ah? Oh... It's okay."

Qin Siyang blinked hard to clear his confused mind.

When the car stopped, Qin Siyang was shocked.

The air-raid glass above the street is much higher than the edge of the safe zone. It is also decorated with soft light sources, illuminating the entire area like daylight.

You can also see several towering pillars supporting the air-raid glass at high altitudes. There are stairs on the pillars, which should help workers to carry out repairs.

The warm wind blowing from nowhere made him relax all over.

And there are green plants and street trees on both sides of the street!

Sanitation workers are cleaning the streets and quietly cleaning up fallen leaves.

Vehicles pass by on the street from time to time, and the roar of the engine stimulates Qin Siyang's eardrums.

He looked at the side of the street again. Some small restaurants seemed to be planned and arranged in a unified manner, very neat.

The sign says the food they sell mainly, such as "teppanyaki", "hot pot", "farmer's stir-fry", etc.

It seems like I've returned to an ordinary street in my previous life.

Qin Siyang looked at this scene, and there was only one thought in his mind.

Could it be that he had just woken up from a dream?

"Laodenuo, District 7, is it in the center of our safe zone?"

"Mr. Qin, the location is not the center. In fact, strictly speaking, District 7 is still on the edge of the safe zone. Our entire safe zone is built against a huge mountain range in the former China, and its shape is relatively narrow and long. District 7 is right next to the mountain range."

"Due to the obstruction of the mountain range, there are fewer gods nearby, which is safer than the edge of the safe zone, so the development is better."

"Then how do people in District 7 hunt gods?"

"Oh, China's previous infrastructure was very complete, with some tunnels and underground rail transit. We built transportation facilities on these foundations, crossed the mountains, and went to hunt gods. There are more gods outside the mountains, and they are more powerful."

Qin Siyang nodded to show his understanding.

That's how it is.

He thought that the smaller the area number of the safe zone, the more central it is. But if it is in the center, it will be surrounded by other areas and there will be no safe zone exit. So he wondered where the exits of the safe zones with smaller numbers are.

Now Laudenuo answered this question for him.

This also made him sigh.

Living on the edge of the safe zone, not only did he not know anything about the end of the world, but even the specific concept of the safe zone was very vague.

Everything he had guessed before was like a blind man touching an elephant, and it was meaningless.

"Mr. Qin, Professor Frenza is waiting for us in the laboratory. Let's go together."

"Okay."

Laudenuo looked tired and had heavy bags under his eyes because he had been driving for three consecutive days and had not rested well.

But he still felt very honored and happy to bring Qin Siyang here.

He had helped his mentor Frenza more or less, so it should not be difficult to get a name on this newly published paper.

The driver turned around and left, probably to find a place to rest and wait to be sent away.

Qin Siyang followed Laudenuo through two streets and saw a vast area.

A huge green lawn came into view.

A long stone lay on the lawn, with the four characters "Nanrong University" engraved on it.

Perhaps because the coalition government no longer had racial boundaries, translations in multiple languages ​​were carefully engraved below.

An open school gate stood on the road next to the lawn.

The gate guards only existed to provide assistance and deal with emergencies, and everyone could enter and exit at will.

Laudenuo led Qin Siyang into Nanrong University.

He saw that the school was well-equipped, with a gymnasium, a football field, and a swimming pool.

This scene reminded Qin Siyang of his alma mater in his previous life, and he slowed down his pace.

"Mr. Qin, our laboratory is over here."

"Oh, okay."

Qin Siyang followed Laudenuo again and entered a building with "Sequence Research Institute" written on the door.

The two took the elevator to the fourth floor.

The whole floor was bright and clean. There was a wooden door every three or five meters on both sides of the corridor. The door had a house number on it and a name tag next to it, which should indicate that this was a laboratory led by someone.

The two walked to the door of 207 (person in charge: Florence Rivers), and Lauden knocked on the door: "Professor Florence, I'm here with Mr. Qin."

"Come in!"

The two pushed the door open, and Qin Siyang saw three rows of laboratory tables, which were filled with various bottles and jars of unknown medicines, as well as various round armors.

Florence came up enthusiastically and shook hands with Qin Siyang: "Mr. Qin, you've worked hard!"

Qin Siyang noticed that Florence looked a little more haggard than the last time they met. It was probably because of the bumpy journey and he didn't get enough rest.

But his eyes were shining with anticipation.

"Well, it's okay. This is also the way we agreed to solve the problem."

Frenza nodded: "That's right. Mr. Qin kept his promise, which made me feel even more ashamed of my behavior at the time! We have already discussed that after the paper is published, we will give Mr. Qin a high-grade hunting weapon as compensation. What do you think?"

Frenza discussed the conditions at the beginning, and did not wait for Qin Siyang to ask for it himself, which was not disrespectful.

Since he took the lead, Qin Siyang naturally had to make things clear with him.

"Since Professor Frenza has spoken, we'd better explain everything clearly so that we don't get confused later. The Hunting God weapon is to compensate for your previous mistakes. Do you have any objections to this?"

Frenza was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "No, no objection."

"That's good. Since the Hunting God weapon is the previous compensation, then I come to your laboratory to help, should I get a new reward?"

"This..." Frenza didn't expect Qin Siyang to be dissatisfied, so he asked: "Mr. Qin, what do you want as a reward?"

"The third author of this paper."

"What is the reason for Mr. Qin to ask for the author of the paper?"

"I am participating in this year's special recruitment and need to study points to improve my competitiveness."

When Frenza heard this, his expression changed several times, and he said with some embarrassment: "Mr. Qin, the third author of this paper has been reserved..."

"Crawford?"

"No, it's not. Director Crawford is the fourth author."

Qin Siyang smiled: "You are quite interesting. The paper hasn't been written yet, but you have already assigned the authors."

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Mr. Qin."

"It's nothing. It's just a relationship. I understand. However, without me in this paper, you can't publish a single word, and your previous three papers will also be invalidated, right?"
