Heroic Death System [BL]

Arc 10: Sentinel & Guide (I)

Shang Ke and Tylor stayed together for one hundred and twenty years. They watched as Pupu grew up and married the son of Kaiser and Ticia. Although the two had a ten-year age difference, they were very happy together.

This time, Tylor died first. Shang Ke waited, regretless, for him to close his eyes before returning to the system space, brimming with the love he felt for him.

After spending a happy life in two worlds, Shang Ke felt like his heart would melt in delight.

【Host, please begin learning skills and prepare for new challenges.】 The System was a killjoy, like always.

Shang Ke chose two skills at random and planned to study happily while thinking of his man.

【Host, the next world is difficult. Please don't take it lightly. 】

"Okay." Shang Ke waved his hand in dismissal and plunged into the Hundred Training Space.

When he emerged from training, the door to a new world opened before him once more.

Before opening his eyes, a burst of chaotic noise surrounded him, and he appeared to be lying on a cold surface. The air was clear and smooth, but it seemed to be tainted by an unpleasant smell.

When Shang Ke finally opened them, the first thing he saw was a bulging... ass. He quickly shifted his gaze away, and only then did Shang Ke roughly understand the situation. This was a splendid shopping mall full of people. They were lying prone on the ground or squatting, and every one of them wore frightened expressions on their faces. At every passageway, entrance, and first- and second-floor window, a few heavily armed strong men stood guard.

Outside the shopping mall, hundreds of soldiers gathered, and the sound of an aircraft could occasionally be heard.

Even if he hadn't received the System's information, Shang Ke could make an intuitive guess. A group of terrorists had hijacked the store, along with its salespeople, shoppers, and so on.

At this moment, the System transmitted the relevant information.

As Shang Ke had predicted, a group of terrorists of unknown origin had seized control of the central mall of the capital of Wayuta, Biyashi three hours ago. They claimed to have loaded fifty high explosive bombs inside and abducted over six thousand civilians, including the staff.

The government sent representatives to negotiate many times, but the terrorists did not respond. The two sides were at a deadlock, and the news media immediately reported that the public mood was out of control and the situation was not optimistic.

The outside world didn't know that these terrorists were all from underground and were a religious anti-government union. They aimed to create panic and retaliate against the government in various cruel ways.

They would not negotiate at all. They only wanted to stall for time and let more people watch their next magnificent performance.

However, a dozen minutes later, elite sentinels of the country would rush onto the scene to encircle and suppress the terrorists.

Sentinels and guides were two special entities within the country. Sentinels had heightened senses and awakened abilities, and were thus the most powerful fighting forces of the country. However, because their senses were too sharp and their spirits were often unstable, they needed guides to calm their emotions and protect their senses.

Sentinels and guides bond together through a spiritual or physical union. The higher their compatibility, the greater the strength of the two. Once they bond, they are bound together for life.

Each sentinel and guide would have their own 'spirit guide'. Spirit guides were generally animals. Their individual attributes would determine the kind of animal formed. Only sentinels and guides with a 95% compatibility could see each other's spirit guide before their bonding.
