Chapter 863: How can we clean up the bureau with this gang?

Let me enter the [Sea of Oblivion] to carve my name, and have part of my soul shattered by the carver in order to return the power taken away from the dog guarding death?
After listening to the request relayed by the shooter director, Lyon thought he would be furious, but he didn't expect that his first instinctive reaction was not anger, but he couldn't help laughing.

All I can say is that when people are helpless, they are prone to accidentally laugh.

After shaking his head slightly, Leon looked at Director Sagittarius and took the initiative to ask:

"Mr. Sagittarius, what do you think of these three requests?"

"Leon, you don't have to test me."

Director Sagittarius blinked when he heard this, and then said frankly with some helplessness:
"I apologize to you once again. When I was promoted to the palace, I ignored you and Olivia when they were attacked and chose to send Jeanne to the Watchtower first. I was indeed sorry for you that time, but you don't have to think too badly of me.

I am not targeting you, and I will not always think of sacrificing you to calm things down. I can even say that apart from the time at the Watchtower Palace, I have always stood on the same side with you... The same is true for this matter. I will never agree to such a condition."

"Oh, sorry, I'm used to it."

The little trick of testing the attitude was exposed, but Li Jichouang was not embarrassed. Instead, he laughed it off and turned to look at the other directors, and said seriously:

“As the newest director with the least experience, I don’t really know much about the situation in the bureau. I originally just wanted to listen in, but since the requirements of the Death Realm have been raised to me, I will stand up and say a few words.

Everyone, my attitude is the same as before. The King-Slaying Society has just suffered a heavy blow in the Kingdom of the Witches. It is impossible for them to make any major moves in the short term. Now is the best time to go to war with the Death Realm!"

At this point, Leon paused for a moment, glanced at the directors who were lost in thought, and then reminded them earnestly:

"From the three conditions just mentioned, the attitude of the Death Realm is very clear. They also want to fight, but they are just not sure of winning now!
I think that instead of giving the initiative to the dead world and letting them choose a time that is favorable to them, it is better to seize the initiative in our own hands and take the initiative to attack at the time that is most favorable to us! "

"I agree."

After Lyon finished speaking, Director Sagittarius, who had some "grudges" with him, was the first to speak up and expressed his agreement, squinting his eyes and saying:
"Granny Crow Eye's attitude is very tough. The three conditions just mentioned are probably their bottom line. Even if we continue the discussion, I don't think they will give in much. If we want to continue the discussion, we probably can't refuse any of them.

Of these three conditions, not retaliating against the [Forest Patrol Girls] and agreeing to strip the captured cleaners of their 'immortal' anomalies was fine, but the third one was definitely not something he could agree to.

Although Leon is not yet at the level of a true god, his future limit may not be lower than that of the third-generation director. The loss of part of his soul will definitely have a significant impact. If he agrees to such a thing, it will be equivalent to sacrificing the future of the entire human race."

Ah... there's no need to make such a big statement...

Unexpectedly, Sagittarius Director was so optimistic about him and even praised him to a level that concerned the future of all mankind. Lyon couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Then he ignored Sagittarius Director's enthusiastic gaze and turned his gaze to Cancer Director who was frowning and thinking.

Including himself, there were a total of six directors attending the meeting. He and Director Sagittarius had already received two votes. If Director Cancer was included, they would have received half of the votes. However, what was somewhat unexpected to Leon was that Director Cancer, who was a member of the "Iron Blood Faction", did not stand up to support the war. Instead, he stretched out his hand to cover the Cancer pattern in front of him and shook his head to express his opposition.

"I'm sorry, although I agree with what you said, I still feel that now is not the right time to go to war with the Death Realm."

Facing Leon's puzzled look, Director Cancer sighed and explained:

“To put it bluntly, it’s still a manpower problem… Joan of Arc’s soul had problems due to the palace promotion incident, and it has not been able to completely synchronize with her body until now. Sagittarius’s body was also destroyed by the previous Aquarius director, and it was just restored not long ago. As for me, I don’t have much time left.

As the 'hometown of souls' and 'home for those who have reached the end of their lifespan', the Dead Realm is best at dealing with people like us who have flaws in our souls and a short time left to live.

The three of us can still handle ordinary True God-level Death Realm Overlords like [The Face Collector], but Pillar God-level Death Realm Overlords like [The Patrol Girl] and [The Faceless Man] are definitely our nemesis, and it is difficult to even ensure that we will not be killed."

"..."

Although it was an objection, Leon couldn't help but nodded when he heard this.

That's true... It does feel dangerous for the three of you to go to the dead world in your current state...

"The other one is Pisces."

Unfortunately, he was not finished yet. After looking at the Pisces director who was also frowning beside him with a slightly apologetic look, the Cancer director continued:

"Although Pisces is intact, his soul will continue to cycle between male-female-old-young. Only when it reaches the 'old' state can it have the combat power of a pillar god.

And he has just reached the male state not long ago, and is currently only slightly stronger than an ordinary true god. If a war really breaks out with the dead world, he will not be able to help much either."

"..."

No... How did you guys get along? Why didn't anyone stand up at the critical moment?
After exchanging a glance with the apologetic Pisces director, and looking at the other directors sighing in front of him, Leon felt a little numb.

These important pillars of the cleansing bureau are currently either dying of old age (Cancer), too weak to be of any help (Pisces), have something wrong with their souls (Taurus), or are simply half disabled (Sagittarius)... old, weak, sick, and disabled just happen to be one in the same, making this a complete group!
What the hell is the Cleanup Bureau still called? Just change the name to Sanatorium! In this situation, I think humans are doomed!
“I don’t object, but I don’t support it either…”

Just when Leon was full of complaints and didn't know who to vent to, Director Taurus stretched out his hand to cover the pattern in front of him and said with some concern:
"My idea is that regardless of whether we go to war with the Death Realm or not, it's best to rescue those children first. After all, the Lords of the Death Realm have always hated the cleaners who 'blasphemed' the rules of death. If we delay any further, I'm worried that they will be hurt."
