00:00:00My name is Lin Xu, I am an embalmer who works with the dead.
00:00:04But today, I applied to a private museum for a part-time night security job.
00:00:09Because the pay was insane, 10 grand a day!
00:00:16How do I burn it?
00:00:17Burn it. Then the contract goes into effect.
00:00:20Mr. Lin, welcome to private museum number 9.
00:00:24Remember, work a full month and resettle your pay, otherwise...
00:00:28Besides a sky-high penalty fee, any other consequences are on you.
00:00:41What is this?
00:00:42The last night guard.
00:00:44A person?
00:00:45How could a person end up like this?
00:00:47That ruthless boss lady. Signs people, then scares them off just to milk the penalty fee.
00:00:52Even as an embalmer, I have never seen a death like this.
00:00:56It is almost time, I have to go.
00:01:03Hope you can last a couple more days.
00:01:131. The museum is open from midnight to 6 AM. Do not come to work during the day.
00:01:182. If you see the Tang Sankai tomb guardian beast's eyes moving, cover it with the red cloth right away.
00:01:25Do not make eye contact with it.
00:01:273 blood weeping jade hairpin.
00:01:30If you hear a woman crying, pretend you did not hear it.
00:01:34Do not answer any of her questions.
00:01:38Vor, the headless bronze figurine's head is missing.
00:01:40If it asks you for a head, throw at the mannequin head on your desk, then lock the workroom door
00:01:44tight.
00:02:00Let's see who's playing spooky games.
00:02:02I'm an embalmer.
00:02:04Even if a body is in 8 pieces, I still sew it up alone at midnight.
00:02:09I've seen every kind of creepy scene.
00:02:16This crappy museum. Why is everything missing parts?
00:02:28Boss, there are cameras here! This wasn't me! Don't dock my pay!
00:02:34This mess of shards is driving me nuts.
00:02:38My work habit is kicking in again.
00:02:52Not enough support. Gotta set a heavy duty anchor bolt.

00:05:14with a wave and s-class eldritch entity turns to ash what rank spirit suppressor has power like that

00:12:56no one
00:12:57no one
00:12:58whoever trashed the eight-armed asura bronze statue and stole my tools it's probably the same person
00:13:03all right i'll check the cameras that'll make it crystal clear
00:13:14rule six before you restore an artifact make sure you check how the nearby artifacts react
00:13:24who's trying to spook me again i'm just trying to fix an artifact and i gotta ask the other artifacts
00:13:29for their opinion
00:13:30you mean it was the other artifacts that stole my tools
00:13:34all crap
00:13:35what a pile of scrap suddenly grew a mind of its own
00:13:38someone's definitely behind this pray i don't find out who it is
00:13:42check the cameras
00:13:44and everything will be clear
00:13:57what the hell is going on the signals out
00:14:03did someone mess with the cameras too
00:14:13this is the diary the previous guard wrote
00:14:17day one
00:14:18i started working at this private museum
00:14:21on the night shift as a god
00:14:23nothing happened all night
00:14:25easiest money ever
00:14:27day two
00:14:28on patrol i was shocked to find a bunch of artifacts had changed their pose
00:14:32that bronze figurine had its arm raised
00:14:34the eyes in the court ladies painting were staring at me
00:14:37they definitely weren't like that before
00:14:40day three
00:14:41i told secretary sue about it
00:14:43she said i had too much free time at night
00:14:45easy to let my mind run wild
00:14:47if i was bored on the night shift
00:14:49i could fix those damaged artifacts
00:14:50she'd even pay extra
00:14:52a hefty fee
00:14:53day four
00:14:54for the money
00:14:55i started repairing that damaged bronze mirror
00:14:57but they didn't want to be fixed
00:14:59that night
00:15:00a bronze sword suddenly flew out of the display case
00:15:03it grazed my scalp
00:15:04almost stabbed me in the head
00:15:07i realized
00:15:08i shouldn't have tried to fix that thing
00:15:10i stared at the mirror
00:15:11my fingers started to harden
00:15:13they turned white
00:15:14like porcelain
00:15:16i i'm becoming part of it
00:15:19if this diary is right
00:15:20those white porcelain shards at the front desk were actually the last guard
00:15:25put that way
00:15:25it all makes sense
00:15:27including why my tools were stolen
00:15:28but that's freaking nonsense
00:15:33wait no
00:15:34when i was fixing that busted mirror just now
00:15:36i had my face in it for ages
00:15:37i even touched the mirror with my fingers
00:15:40why am i totally fine
00:15:43who
00:16:11who the heck did this
00:16:15before you restore any artifact
00:16:18make sure you take a look at how the other pieces next to it react
00:16:28whatever
00:16:28i'll fix this bronze mirror first today
00:16:30i'll fix this bronze mirror first today
00:17:19i'll see you in the future
00:17:20i'll see you in the next video
00:17:21This artifact can actually move.
00:17:52Since when did I have reflexes this fast?
00:17:54And this much strength?
00:17:56I'm almost like Superman.
00:17:58No wonder I felt like I had energy to burn all day.
00:18:00So it wasn't just my imagination.
00:18:07What is this freaking thing doing?
00:18:09Can't beat me, so you're ready to surrender.
00:18:32You can do that?
00:18:57This piece of junk...
00:18:59It's really trying to kill me.
00:19:03I quit. Best move is to run.
00:19:31Is this a museum or a haunted house?
00:19:39And it even goes for sneak attacks.
00:20:12Finally, they stopped.
00:20:40Too bad.
00:20:43All broken.
00:20:50Lou, by Duan.
00:20:57You...
00:20:57You smiled!
00:21:03This place is creepy too.
00:21:05This crappy museum.
00:21:07Nothing here is normal.
00:21:25No way!
00:21:26My wound healed overnight.
00:21:29What kind of healing is that?
00:21:30Am I still human?
00:21:43Perfect timing.
00:21:45Looks like you figured it out.
00:21:47This isn't a normal museum, is it?
00:21:49Those busted artifacts move.
00:21:51They steal stuff.
00:21:52They even swing swords at people.
00:21:54How is this a night shift security job?
00:21:57It's literally putting your life on the line.
00:21:59I quit.
00:22:00I don't care how much you pay.
00:22:01I'm out.
00:22:02I'm leaving.
00:22:03Mr. Lin.
00:22:04If you unilaterally break the contract, you'll owe a 10 million penalty.
00:22:0910 million?
00:22:10You could sell me and I still wouldn't be worth 10 million?
00:22:12Worst case, I'll just be a deadbeat.
00:22:15Better than dying here.
00:22:20You think you can just quit now?
00:22:24You restored the eight armed Asura.
00:22:27You saw it yourself.
00:22:29They don't want to be restored at all.
00:22:37If you stay, they'll still hold back.
00:22:40But if you leave, they'll follow you out.
00:22:43You stay here.
00:22:44They're still wary.
00:22:45But if you leave, they'll follow you out.
00:22:49You quit trying to spook me with that.
00:22:52Fine.
00:22:52Then go ahead and try.
00:22:55But if you're willing to stay on starting tonight for every artifact you restore,
00:23:01I'll pay you 10 times as much.
00:23:0410 times?
00:23:05It used to be a hundred thousand per piece.
00:23:0810 times.
00:23:08So that's a million, right?
00:23:12I'm in.
00:23:12People die for money, birds for food.
00:23:14But you have to tell me what the heck this museum really is,
00:23:17why all that junk moves, and whether this place is actually haunted.
00:23:23Mr. Lin, you ask too many questions.
00:23:27Kia.
00:23:28The truth doesn't come cheap.
00:23:30If you want answers, fine.
00:23:32For each artifact you successfully restore, I'll answer one question.
00:23:37Tonight, good luck.
00:23:39I'll answer one question.
00:23:45I'll answer one question.
00:23:46Rule seven.
00:23:47The Guardian's Gallery is the only safe zone.
00:23:49Not sure if they'll welcome you.
00:23:52Another entry popped up out of nowhere.
00:23:56Guardian's Gallery.
00:23:57So those massive bronze statues are actually called Guardians.
00:24:00Then what are those moving things outside supposed to be?
00:24:02Eldritch entity?
00:24:03Eldritch entity?
00:24:04Or something sealed away?
00:24:09As for whether they welcome me, I hold up there all night and no one kicked me out.
00:24:14So I guess they do.
00:24:15If things get weird again tonight, I'll just run straight there and I'll be fine.
00:24:19I still have no clue how these rules showed up.
00:24:22But it all seems to be true.
00:24:24Since I've got a fallback.
00:24:26Time to get to work.
00:24:28Or the headless bronze figurine's head is missing.
00:24:30If it asks you for a head, throw it the mannequin head under your desk.
00:24:34Then lock the workroom door tight.
00:24:36Headless bronze figurine.
00:24:39Should be an easy fix.
00:24:42I'll fix it tonight.
00:24:44Back when I worked as a mortician, I sometimes got bodies from car wrecks with their heads gone.
00:24:49We'd use plaster and polymer clay and sculpt a head that looked just like them for the family.
00:25:12No original head? I'll make you a new one myself.
00:25:32We did it!
00:25:56We did it!
00:25:57Here it comes.
00:26:04Stop it!
00:26:14wait till...
00:26:16that.
00:26:17n
00:26:17w
00:26:17w
00:26:18w
00:26:18w
00:26:19w
00:26:38All right, you want the head, right?
00:26:40The original's gone, but I made you one that's exactly the same.
00:26:50What?
00:27:03Perfect!
00:27:05One million just hit my account.
00:27:11What's going on?
00:27:12So hot.
00:27:22Team A has lost contact.
00:27:23Team B's defenses have collapsed.
00:27:25Team C, all of Team C's vital signs are gone.
00:27:32Team C, where is my body?
00:27:41Give me your body
00:27:42In the last 72 hours
00:28:01Eldritch incidents across the city have tripled
00:28:04The most dangerous one
00:28:05Codename confirmed
00:28:06Bronze head
00:28:07So far headquarters has lost 3 A class spirit suppressors
00:28:107 B class spirit suppressors
00:28:14Even just the head is already S class
00:28:17Not a possibility
00:28:18It's confirmed
00:28:19If it finds its body
00:28:21The consequences would be unimaginable
00:28:30Target
00:28:32It's gone
00:28:33What
00:28:34Gone
00:28:35No way
00:28:37It's not cloaked
00:28:39Yeah
00:28:40We've completely lost the Eldritch entity reading
00:28:44Pull up the last frame
00:28:49My body
00:28:50Where's my body
00:28:54It found a lead on the body
00:28:55What
00:29:00Man
00:29:02What
00:29:25For real, it's gone inert.
00:29:39Lu Bai Duan, who's that?
00:29:42The smith.
00:29:46So this S-Class Eldritch Entity was made on purpose?
00:29:49No way!
00:29:50Besides this bronze head, its body is still unaccounted for.
00:29:54Don't forget, that's at least another S-Class Eldritch Entity.
00:29:58Immediately gather everything on Lu Bai Duan, every bit tied to that name.
00:30:03Find the source of this Eldritch Entity case.
00:30:10I'm the Night Shift security guard, they even have me clean the front desk.
00:30:16Hm?
00:30:16What's this?
00:30:31Hold on.
00:30:32This woman.
00:30:34This is Secretary Sue.
00:30:37Why does this photo look so old?
00:30:44You're 17 of the Republican Era.
00:30:47Paul.
00:30:50You're 17 of the Republican Era.
00:30:53That would be 1928.
00:30:55That's almost a hundred years ago.
00:31:01If this is Secretary Sue, wouldn't she be over a hundred years old?
00:31:08Let's go.
00:31:32Yeah.
00:31:35No.
00:31:35You're 17 of the Republican Era.
00:31:36figurine last night. You restored the headless bronze figurine? No way! The
00:31:44eight-armed Asura only had cracks on the body, there were fragments to piece
00:31:48together, but the headless bronze figurine's head was completely gone. How
00:31:52could you possibly fix that? I was like, what's the big deal? The original head is
00:31:57gone, then just sculpt a new one. Looks like I really picked the right
00:32:06person. Don't start praising me yet. You did promise for each artifact I restore,
00:32:16you'll answer one question. So my question now is, who exactly is the person in this
00:32:20photo, and why does she look exactly like you?
00:32:29Year 17 of the Republican era. That was almost a hundred years ago.
00:32:34Uh, th-this is my grandma. Good genes run in my family. I take after my grandma. What's
00:32:40the big deal? The one million will hit your account on time. I got stuff to do, I'm heading
00:32:45out. Your grandma. Your grandma can fit into the same heels as you, Secretary Sue. The person
00:32:57in the photo is you. A woman who's lived a hundred years, and those eerie broken artifacts. This museum is
00:33:09definitely hiding something big. I doubt this woman will tell the truth. Then I'll look into it
00:33:15myself.
00:33:19This museum's been around for quite a while. There's got to be something online, right?
00:33:34Not a trace. It's right downtown.
00:33:46Got it. A remarkable figure from the Republican era. Figures, same era as Secretary Sue.
00:33:59Damn! It was just there! How did it get deleted in a second?
00:34:09That kind of precise blocking and deletion. There's definitely a major force at work. It's covering
00:34:14up everything about this museum and Lou Bidouan. Looks like we won't find much online. Guess
00:34:24I'll have to ask that freaking fatty for a lead. He's got street connections, and he hears a lot
00:34:29of gossip.
00:34:39Brother Sue, you've been MIA for days. You turned down all the funeral home gigs. So what money-making
00:34:47hustle are you on?
00:34:51Picked up a night shift side job. Fatty, take my advice. Some things, the less you know,
00:34:58the better.
00:34:58Quit acting all mysterious. Let me ask you. That pic of the eight-armed Asura you sent me
00:35:06the other day, you didn't just Photoshop it to mess with me, did you?
00:35:10Brother Sue, you can make fun of my weight, but don't trash my intel. That pic is 100% real.
00:35:18Brother Sue, check this out. This is another paranormal incident that just blew up. It got
00:35:24wiped from the whole internet right away. Deleted. But your boy Fatty was quick. Grabbed a screenshot.
00:35:39Wait. Isn't this the head I molded last night to scale for the headless bronze figurine,
00:35:44the one I made? How is it exactly the same?
00:35:51Shocked, huh? I heard this bronze head went around killing people. Kept yelling it was looking for its
00:35:56body. A lot of people died. So Secretary Sue wasn't lying to me. Turns out leaving the museum meant
00:36:03big trouble. Then what happened? Where did that thing go? Bet you don't know this part.
00:36:10The authorities sent in operatives from the Spirit Suppression Bureau.
00:36:13They took care of that head for good. Contained it.
00:36:20Spirit Suppression Bureau. What kind of agency is that?
00:36:27Brother Sue, you asked the right guy. The Spirit Suppression Bureau is a top secret special unit set
00:36:34up by the authorities. They handle the surge of unexplainable by science supernatural incidents
00:36:40nationwide. I heard supernatural incidents are spiking lately. The Spirit Suppression Bureau
00:36:46is short-staffed. They are recruiting people with special skills nationwide.
00:36:53Since the Spirit Suppression Bureau handles supernatural cases and they contain that bronze
00:36:57head, then in their internal archives there must be intel on private museum number nine and Lou
00:37:02by Duan. If we can get into the Spirit Suppression Bureau, we can definitely get some intel on that museum.
00:37:11Fatty, do you know anyone in the Spirit Suppression Bureau? I want in too.
00:37:18Damn! Brother Sue, are you out of your mind? That's an official special unit. It's full of people who can
00:37:23leap across rooftops, big shots who slay demons. How would I even know someone like that?
00:37:28Didn't you say they were recruiting gifted folks left and right? They are, sure. But the bar is crazy high.
00:37:34As long as you can prove you have a special ability and pass the Spirit Suppression Bureau's assessment,
00:37:40you can get in on an exception.
00:37:53A special ability? Does this count?
00:38:05Big Brother Sue, you really have a special ability?
00:38:10Big Brother Sue, you really have a special ability to help me sign up.
00:38:32Inside that bell, feels like something alive is watching us.
00:38:37I couldn't breathe the second I got here. What the heck is this Spirit Suppression Bureau exam about?
00:38:49Welcome to the Spirit Suppression Bureau tryouts. I'm the Chief Examiner for this test. By G,
00:38:55Deputy Captain of the Spirit Suppression Bureau. The Bureau's rules for new recruits are simple. The
00:39:00strong stay, the weak get cut. See that bell? Inside, there's an A-Class Eldritch Entity trapped,
00:39:08code name, Face Eater. Damn! Are you insane? An A-Class Eldritch Entity can level half a city and you
00:39:15just put it here?
00:39:18Quiet! During the assessment, the Spirit Suppression Bureau will only lift part of its seal, letting out just a
00:39:24tiny bit of a tiny bit of Eldritch Aura. If you can withstand D-Class Eldritch Aura, you can become
00:39:30a
00:39:30trainee Spirit Warden with the Spirit Suppression Bureau. If you can withstand C-Class Eldritch Aura, you can be
00:39:36certified directly as a full C-Class Spirit Warden. If someone performs exceptionally and can withstand
00:39:43B-Class Eldritch Aura, they can be certified straight as a B-Class Spirit Warden. Deputy Captain,
00:39:50can I ask something? What rank of Spirit Warden are you? Our Deputy Captain By G is an A-Class
00:39:56Spirit
00:39:57Warden. In the entire Spirit Suppression Bureau, few make it to this rank. They're few and far between.
00:40:02For rookies like you, if you can handle D-Class Eldritch Aura from the start without peeing your pants,
00:40:07that's already a miracle.
00:40:13A-Class Spirit Warden. From the sound of it, A-Class is pretty much the ceiling, the big shots.
00:40:26I wonder what level I can pass.
00:40:30The assessment starts now.
00:40:34A-Class Spirit Warden.
00:40:34A-Class Spirit Warden.
00:40:46A-Class Spirit Warden.
00:40:54My face!
00:40:56My face hurts so bad
00:41:19Looks like I'll have no problem passing this assessment
00:41:28Seriously, that's over the top
00:41:33Keep going
00:41:34Open it to C-class
00:41:49I saw it
00:41:51There are faces in there
00:41:52So many faces
00:41:54Get out, get out of my head
00:41:56Don't eat me
00:41:58Don't eat me
00:42:12That's as far as you can go
00:42:13Hurry, get out, don't hold me up
00:42:15I'm taking on a higher difficulty
00:42:18Set the difficulty straight to B-Cloud
00:42:22Take the difficulty straight to B-Class
00:42:26You sure?
00:42:28Of course
00:42:35Deputy Captain, are we really cranking it up to B-Class?
00:42:38With me here, nothing will go wrong
00:42:50Give me your face
00:42:52Your face is in perfect shape
00:42:54Let me have a bite
00:42:55I'm starving
00:43:12My face, my face got torn off
00:43:17That newbie really doesn't know their place
00:43:19C-class and B-Class Spirit Suppressors are worlds apart
00:43:23The Spirit Suppression Bureau has been recruiting rookies for years
00:43:26Hardly anyone has ever passed the B-Class assessment right off the bat
00:43:31No, wait
00:43:32Look at that rookie
00:43:32Quick
00:43:52Oh no, the seal has been broken
00:43:54It's going after the rookie
00:43:56Everyone pull back
00:44:18Get out of the way
00:44:22I don't sense any danger
00:44:25It should hold, right?
00:44:29Crap
00:44:29This rookie's nerves are shot
00:44:31That A-Class Eldritch entity scared him senseless
00:44:34He can't even dodge on instinct
00:44:36He isn't dodging
00:44:37Even with teleportation, the deputy captain can't save him
00:44:46Stop!
00:44:53Get back
00:44:55Get back
00:45:13Get back
00:45:15Get back

00:45:57so that's an a-class eldritch entity the face eater and a rookie blew both the
00:46:02bell and the entity to bits with just one hit we are doing a rookie test right he erased the
00:46:16a-class test with one punch i don't remember this museum having anyone this strong
00:46:35lin shu congrats you passed the new recruit assessment you're officially part of the spirit
00:46:43suppression bureau the bureau's top brass unanimously decided to certify you as an a-class spirit
00:47:01suppressor a-class spirit suppressors are the backbone of the bureau starting today you'll get
00:47:07the bureau's highest level perks and priority access to all intel and resources called it
00:47:12with a class clearance i can investigate private museum number nine lin shu i need to give you a
00:47:18heads up about something your power is unusual it doesn't look like something you trained up more
00:47:25like you took it straight from an eldritch entity what do you mean in our world there's a hard rule
00:47:32the power of eldritch entities never vanishes into thin air it only transfers even if an s-class
00:47:38eldritch entity is put down its power still won't disappear it goes straight to whoever killed it
00:47:48eldritch power doesn't vanish it just transfers you just killed an a-class eldritch entity the face
00:47:56eater by that rule you've now inherited the face eater's power with the power you already had
00:48:01our assessment of your actual combat ability is at least top tier a-class
00:48:07killing an eldritch entity lets you gain its power
00:48:15ever since i restored the eight-armed asura and the headless bronze figurine my body started to
00:48:20change don't tell me the eight-armed asura and that headless bronze figurine are both eldritch
00:48:26entities but here's the thing i didn't kill any eldritch entity i only restored them
00:48:34captain by what you're saying is way over my head i don't really get it to be straight with you
00:48:39i used to work as a mortician you know in this line of work you deal with the dead every
00:48:44day
00:48:45i probably by accident got something on me
00:48:49since you don't want to say more the spirit suppression bureau won't force you
00:48:54every powerful operative has their own secrets as long as you use your power to fight eldritch
00:48:59entities you're our ally lin shu on behalf of the spirit suppression bureau special operations unit

00:52:46get up
00:53:15what the he's a freaking rookie
00:53:19why do i feel like
00:53:23he's even more vicious than an eldritch entity
00:53:34still snarling
00:54:02shatter
00:54:26the smith
00:54:28lu bai duan
00:54:33lu bai duan
00:54:34lu bai duan
00:54:36that guardian bronze statue
00:54:39the a-class eldritch entity in this underground waterway
00:54:42what exactly does it have to do with him
00:54:52it's lu bai duan
00:54:53it's lu bai duan again
00:54:55captain bai
00:54:56you know lu bai duan
00:54:58come back to headquarters with me
00:55:02you'll see when we get there
00:55:20check this out
00:55:29this is the head from fatty wang's photo
00:55:32it's exactly like the one i sculpted
00:55:38i had no idea what the headless bronze figurine's original head looked like
00:55:42is that a coincidence or what
00:55:44what's wrong
00:55:46have you seen this before
00:55:48no no
00:55:49i just think the bronze head's design is way too creepy
00:55:55it was a mysterious spirit suppressor
00:55:58who took this s-class eldritch entity down in one hit
00:56:00same as that a-class iron centipede just now
00:56:04on its body the same name is carved as well
00:56:09captain bai
00:56:11who exactly is this lu bai duan
00:56:14according to the spirit suppression bureau
00:56:16the only public info we can find for now
00:56:19lu bai duan was a remarkable figure active in the republican era
00:56:22rumor has it he was a master craftsman
00:56:25with hands said to bend yin and yang
00:56:27bringing dead objects to life
00:56:29however his life story
00:56:31and how he died
00:56:32these key records are all locked down
00:56:35locked down you don't even have clearance
00:56:37not just me
00:56:38even the commander in chief can't check them directly
00:56:40because all intel on lu bai duan
00:56:43has been filed under the code name
00:56:45spirit suppression project number nine
00:56:47in sss class top secret files
00:56:49what spirit suppression project number nine
00:56:52that's right
00:56:52it was the highest level secret set up in the early years after the founding
00:56:56i've already asked the head office in the capital for partial access
00:57:00but whether it's the a-class rust eaten iron centipede
00:57:03or this bronze head
00:57:05they clearly both trace back to lu bai duan
00:57:07and are inseparable from him
00:57:08either way
00:57:09we need to move fast to dig into everything about lu bai duan
00:57:11and spirit suppression project number nine
00:57:13approval process
00:57:15it'll probably take a few days
00:57:17lin shu
00:57:17i know you're in a rush
00:57:19but it's extremely complicated
00:57:20just hang tight for a few days
00:57:22once the paperwork comes through
00:57:24i'll let you know right away
00:57:34private museum number nine
00:57:37spirit suppression project number nine
00:57:39they both have number nine in the name
00:57:41and both are tied to lu bai duan
00:57:43there are countless connections
00:57:44could it be
00:57:45that one full of broken eldritch artifacts
00:57:47private museum number nine
00:57:49has another identity too
00:57:50lin shu
00:57:51did you hear me
00:57:58okay i'll wait
00:58:13tonight
00:58:15i'll restore one more artifact
00:58:16first thing tomorrow
00:58:18i'll threaten to stop the restoration
00:58:19and i gotta make secretary su tell the truth
00:58:23if she dares to pull that grandma from a hundred years ago nonsense on me again
00:58:27i'm freaking done with this job
00:58:52i'm freaking out
00:58:57earlier today
00:58:58in the underground waterway
00:59:00the one we ran into that
00:59:01a-class eldritch entity
00:59:02the iron centipede
00:59:03turns out it really was the one that broke out of this museum
00:59:07but why would something in the museum that's just a tiny display
00:59:10become over 10 meters long outside
00:59:13the stuff in this museum does move and can hurt people
00:59:15but in size and strength
00:59:17compared to the a-class and s-class eldritch entities outside
00:59:20it's night and day
00:59:21what the hell is going on
00:59:22what the hell is going on
00:59:32what the hell is going on
00:59:54what the hell is going on
00:59:55over 30 in total empty pedestals marked as missing
01:00:01doesn't that mean
01:00:02there are at least 30 some more like the iron centipede out there
01:00:06eldritch entities as terrifying as the bronze head
01:00:09roaming around killing people
01:00:27let's fix it tonight
01:00:37pretend you didn't hear it
01:00:38i'm good at that
01:00:51can you see me
01:00:53rule number one for morticians

01:01:02answer me
01:01:14all set

01:01:40who's sighing
01:01:46why did i just feel like
01:01:47the museum was sighing
01:01:54this damn museum
01:01:55not only does every artifact move
01:01:58could it be
01:02:00even the building itself
01:02:02is alive too
01:02:21secretary sue
01:02:22i've restored another artifact
01:02:24much appreciated
01:02:28the one million restoration fee
01:02:29will be transferred as agreed to your card shortly
01:02:34you'll get every cent
01:02:36but it's not just about the money
01:02:38per our deal
01:02:40you still owe me one question
01:02:44and it has to be the truth
01:02:45don't give me that grandma's photo crap to try to fool me
01:02:48if you dare lie to me again today
01:02:50i swear no matter how much you pay me
01:02:52i will never take on another repair for anything in this museum
01:02:56what do you want to know
01:02:58what's the real story behind this museum
01:03:00and spirit suppression project number nine
01:03:02how are they connected
01:03:03you
01:03:04how do you know about spirit suppression project number nine
01:03:07that's not your concern
01:03:08now tell me the truth
01:03:14since you know the name i'll tell you
01:03:17this private museum is actually a tomb
01:03:20a tomb
01:03:21private museum number nine
01:03:23it's number nine
01:03:25spirit suppression project
01:03:30a tomb
01:03:31so whose tomb is it
01:03:33and lou bai duan
01:03:34who exactly is lou bai duan
01:03:36what role does he play
01:03:38mr. lin
01:03:39because i lied to you last time
01:03:42to make it up to you
01:03:43i already answered two of your questions just now
01:03:46what this museum is
01:03:48and
01:03:48its connection to the spirit suppression project
01:03:51but just now
01:03:52you fired off five more questions
01:03:56secretary sue
01:03:57don't try to game the system here
01:03:59rules are rules
01:04:01if you want to know whose tomb this is
01:04:04who lou bai duan is
01:04:06tonight keep working on the repairs
01:04:21spirit suppression project number nine is this museum
01:04:24and this is a tomb
01:04:27then in here
01:04:30who's actually buried
01:04:39the file you requested to view got approved
01:04:49finally got it
01:04:53what's going on
01:04:56when i first got it
01:04:58i reacted the same way
01:04:59this file is incomplete
01:05:01or rather
01:05:01it was deliberately scrubbed out
01:05:03the higher ups understand why we're investigating
01:05:06there have been mass outbreaks of eldritch entities lately
01:05:08they also know this likely ties to spirit suppression project number nine
01:05:12but
01:05:13the top brass got in touch with the participants from spirit suppression project number nine back then
01:05:18they were extremely adamant
01:05:20they do not want this file released to the spirit suppression bureau at all
01:05:23so what the higher ups can show us is just the scraps that weren't completely blacked out
01:05:28the participants in spirit suppression project number nine
01:05:31that was from the early prc maybe even the republican era
01:05:35if those participants are still alive
01:05:38they'd be extremely old
01:05:47lived for over a hundred years
01:05:49still not impossible
01:05:51i happen to know as secretary sue he's over a hundred
01:05:58body has the pact
01:06:03self-sacrifice to the seal
01:06:05permanent suppression
01:06:12what the heck does that even mean
01:06:17wait
01:06:2114 people
01:06:23why 14 people
01:06:26if the base depicts lou bai duan as one of the guardian statues
01:06:30then that's the one mentioned in the files
01:06:32the spirit suppressor who chose self-sacrifice to the seal
01:06:36but the museum only has 12 intact guardian statues
01:06:39plus the one that collapsed into rubble
01:06:42that makes only 13
01:06:44where did the 14th person go
01:06:48lin shu
01:06:50i suspect lou bai duan
01:06:51is one of the 14 participants in spirit suppression project number nine
01:06:57lately so many high level eldritch entities have emerged and they are all connected to him
01:07:01this definitely means that spirit suppression project number nine has gone terribly wrong
01:07:08we have to find the project's real location
01:07:11only by investigating the site can we address this at the source and end the city's eldritch entity crisis
01:07:17i've known the address for a while
01:07:19but what's inside
01:07:21is way more complicated than you think
01:07:28i gave you move out now
01:07:30in a recently excavated ancient tomb on the outskirts abnormal eldritch fluctuations have erupted
01:07:36the spirit suppression bureau's advance team is trapped underground
01:07:39their status is unknown
01:07:41you two are ordered to lead a team there for immediate rescue
01:07:45copy that
01:08:00the magnetic field's a mess the eldritch entities jamming is too strong
01:08:04the scanner can't locate the advance team
01:08:09turn off your flashlights
01:08:11let me handle it
01:08:12let me handle it
01:08:15let me handle it
01:08:21let me handle it
01:08:41Over there, after 9 o'clock, about 300 meters out, they're being swarmed.
01:08:53Crap, I can't hold on!
01:09:19Captain Bai, Lin Xiu, you finally made it!
01:09:25Look at the wall!
01:09:36Wait, no, the patterns and flow of these runes actually match the ones in the museums don't
01:09:40all under those guardian statues the golden lines they stand on.
01:09:43They come from the same source.
01:09:51Right here!
01:10:01The size and shape of this groove match those in the museum, the exhibit pedestals marked
01:10:05as missing, exactly the same.
01:10:08This isn't a tomb at all, it's a museum that used to house artifacts.
01:10:13Lin Xiu, look at this!
01:10:18You locked me up for 50 years.
01:10:20Now I'm going to destroy everything you worked for.
01:10:24What does that mean?
01:10:39The damaged artifacts missing from the museum.
01:10:42Why are they scattered here?
01:10:44This person is definitely deeply tied to private museum number 9.
01:10:48Maybe even to those artifacts lost overseas.
01:10:52Deputy captain, these two items, can I borrow them for a while?
01:10:55Borrow these two artifacts?
01:10:57That's right, I can really use them, but I can't explain right now.
01:11:02You did a great job on this rescue. I can make the call, and let you take these two items.
01:11:09Thanks.
01:11:40Perfectly back in place. Get the lost artifacts back, return the originals.
01:11:46How hot is that? Pretty much like restoring broken artifacts, right? Call it a million per piece.
01:11:52Two would be two million. Most importantly, Secretary Su still has to answer two more questions.
01:11:59As long as I recover or fix enough artifacts, it won't take long.
01:12:05With a full picture on private museum number nine, and I'll get to the bottom of it.
01:12:20Gone again.
01:12:29This guy Lin Shu. As soon as he clocks out at night, his trail just goes cold.
01:12:35I've been tailing him the whole way, but whenever I get near this old street, he just vanishes into thin
01:12:41air.
01:12:42I can't find a single trace.
01:12:47The moment he joined the Spirit Suppression Bureau, he immediately used A-Class Clearance to dig into Spirit Suppression Project
01:12:54number nine.
01:12:55With that kind of terrifying power, he somehow knows nothing about the Eldritch rules.
01:13:01Lin Shu. Who the heck are you?
01:13:10One. Two. Three. Eleven. Twelve.
01:13:19Including this shattered one. That makes thirteen statues.
01:13:23The files spell it out. Fourteen Spirit Suppressors. Body is the Pact.
01:13:27But the fourteenth person. Who are they? Where did they go?
01:13:50And they still have the nerve to cause trouble.
01:14:25I get it.
01:14:26You, you guardians keep burning through your bodies and power to suppress all the eldritch artifacts in this museum.
01:14:32Your body's cracking because your power was drained dry.
01:14:35That collapsed statue might have died for good when its power ran out.
01:14:41Were you protecting me just now?
01:14:58Blacksmith Lu Bai Duan, martial artist Zhou Tie Zhu, Potter Ni Wing.
01:15:03Weaver Yun Jin Yang, Zither Master, Zhuang Lixian, calligrapher Mo Chenkyo, stone sculptor Shibuyu, lacqueror, Zhu Xuming, jade carver, bihan
01:15:12carpenter Ban Lusheng.
01:15:16Casting painting, carving, weaving, lacquer art, zither music, calligraphy, stone carving, jade carving, carpentry, pottery.
01:15:24Lu Bai Duan is a blacksmith.
01:15:26So the ones in this museum, the bronze artifacts were all cast by him.
01:15:30Wouldn't that mean?
01:15:32The ceramics were fired by the Potter Ni Wing.
01:15:35The painting on the wall is court ladies adorning their hair with flowers.
01:15:39It was painted by the painter Dan King-Zi.
01:15:42The blood-weeping jade hairpin was carved by the jade carver B. Hen.
01:15:46Then does that mean all the artifacts in this museum were made by them?
01:15:59I wish to turn to stone and stand guard for a hundred years.
01:16:03To those who come after, do not mourn.
01:16:06We have no regrets.
01:16:33Speed up the repairs.
01:16:34We're running out of time.
01:16:36Something's off.
01:16:38Those notes that popped up on the museum night shift rules earlier were all printed text.
01:16:43But this time the writing is sloppy and rushed.
01:16:47Clearly handwritten.
01:16:48Even the color is off.
01:16:50It looks like it was written in blood.
01:16:53What the hell are you?
01:16:59Damn!
01:17:03This book is actually alive.
01:17:06It can even understand me and answer my questions.
01:17:16Since you can talk.
01:17:18All right then.
01:17:19Let me ask you.
01:17:20Who exactly created you?
01:17:28Someone who wanted those who came after to survive.
01:17:33Then tell me.
01:17:34What exactly is this museum?
01:17:36Who's buried underneath?
01:17:38The 14th Guardian.
01:17:39And where are they?
01:17:45Galaska.
01:17:46Who is she?
01:17:47Do you mean Secretary Sue?
01:17:51Hey!
01:17:51Don't play dead on me!
01:17:53Is she Secretary Sue or not?
01:17:54Why do we have to keep restoring the artifacts?
01:17:57Spit it out, will you?
01:18:00Hey!
01:18:01The Seer's death tomb.
01:18:02Old buddy.
01:18:03You there?
01:18:09Damn.
01:18:10You bail right when it matters.
01:18:19Go ask her then.
01:18:22Fine.
01:18:22Then I'll take this her to mean Secretary Sue.
01:18:31Secretary Sue morning.
01:18:34Looks like you didn't restore anything new last night.
01:18:38I didn't restore any damaged artifacts last night.
01:18:41But I did something even harder than restoring them.
01:18:45What is it?
01:18:46I brought two back of the artifacts the museum lost.
01:18:50A bronze wine vessel and a half-jade pendant.
01:18:52I've already put them back on their original display stands.
01:18:55What?
01:18:56You actually found the artifacts the museum lost out there.
01:18:59So, did you run into that person?
01:19:03That person?
01:19:05Which person do you mean, Secretary Sue?
01:19:10Do you mean the one who left an inscription on the secret room wall?
01:19:14Anyone who can make Secretary Sue who's lived a hundred years this nervous has to be a deadly threat.
01:19:19I did.
01:19:22He asked me to give you a message.
01:19:24You locked him up for 50 years.
01:19:26Now, he's going to destroy everything you've worked for.
01:19:32Mr. Lin, I don't know where you picked up that line.
01:19:35But if you actually ran into that person with your skills, there's no way you'd make it back alive.
01:19:40Damn!
01:19:40I'm being underestimated.
01:19:42She has no idea how strong I am now.
01:19:45All right.
01:19:46I won't keep you in suspense.
01:19:52Secretary Sue, you tell me.
01:19:55Should I call this thing museum night shift rules or the seer's death tome?
01:20:04You...
01:20:05You actually talked to it?
01:20:06What did it say to you?
01:20:08It told me to stay alive, keep restoring.
01:20:10It also said, if I have any questions, I should come straight to you.
01:20:16Secretary Sue, let's be straight with each other.
01:20:19I know what you're after, which is to have me keep restoring artifacts in this museum.
01:20:22I can agree to that.
01:20:23I'll keep putting my life on the line for you.
01:20:25But only if you answer all my questions.
01:20:27No more secrets or lies.
01:20:35Even it is willing to guide you.
01:20:38Looks like it really has accepted you.
01:20:41I promise you.
01:20:43What do you want to know?
01:20:44If I know it, I'll tell you.
01:20:46First question.
01:20:47Those incomplete artifacts in this museum.
01:20:50What exactly are they?
01:20:52And one more thing.
01:20:53When I restore these artifacts, why do I suddenly get so much power out of nowhere?
01:20:58Mr. Lin.
01:20:59Haven't you already joined the Spirit Suppression Bureau?
01:21:02The Spirit Suppression Bureau has an iron rule.
01:21:05You should know it by heart by now.
01:21:07An Eldritch Entity's power doesn't disappear.
01:21:10It only transfers.
01:21:11That's right.
01:21:12In this world, Eldritch Entities are immortal.
01:21:15To wipe out an Eldritch Entity for good, the only way is to seal it.
01:21:19When you restore those incomplete artifacts, that is basically resealing them.
01:21:24To seal it, is to kill it.
01:21:26So, when you restore an artifact completely, at that moment, the Eldritch Entity is resealed.
01:21:31The power drawn from it naturally shifts to you, the Restorer.
01:21:35That's why you keep getting stronger.
01:21:39All right.
01:21:41Then let me ask you this.
01:21:42Since these damaged artifacts are all terrifying Eldritch Entities,
01:21:49why do the ones lost abroad have world-ending power,
01:21:53but inside this museum they are stuck as tiny lifeless objects?
01:21:56And most can barely even twitch.
01:21:58Also, even my own power in here versus outside is massively different.
01:22:02It feels like in here my power is cut down by more than half.
01:22:06Because, this is the fundamental reason Private Museum No. 9 was built.
01:22:12Inside this museum, all power from Eldritch Entities must be absolutely suppressed.
01:22:18Once that power is suppressed.
01:22:21Lin Xu, have you ever really thought about it?
01:22:24This museum, why does it have only five major galleries?
01:22:29Bronze Gallery, Jade Gallery, Calligraphy and Painting Gallery, Ceramics Gallery, Terracotta Warriors Gallery.
01:22:36Is there a reason for that?
01:22:39Because the layout of these five galleries follows the Supreme Taoist Formation,
01:22:44the charts of the true forms of the five peaks, to the letter,
01:22:47the museum itself is a massive heaven-sealing grand array.
01:23:28The Supreme Taoist Formation, and the Supreme Taoist Formation,
01:24:08Those guardian statues you saw, are the power source of this array.
01:24:12For a hundred years, they're neither alive nor dead, turned into bronze statues, and they've been burning themselves non-stop,
01:24:20to power this array.
01:24:21Keeping the countless eldritch entities in the museum firmly suppressed.
01:24:30Lin Shu, now you know everything. The guardian's power is running out. This array won't hold much longer.
01:24:41So the previous rules are scrapped. Starting tonight, you're no longer fixing just one artifact a day. Instead, at least
01:24:50ten a day.
01:24:52Ten a day? Damn! That's freaking risking my life! He'll rip me to shreds!
01:24:56Don't worry. I and all the guardians, even if it costs us our last reserves, and even this museum itself,
01:25:03will do everything to protect you.
01:25:05And help you. Lin Shu, we're out of time. That person is about to arrive. You have to give it
01:25:10everything. Move as fast as you can.
01:25:12Finish restoring as soon as possible. Every artifact in this museum. Only by restoring non-stop can you keep getting
01:25:20stronger.
01:25:20Until you fully inherit the legacy power of all twelve guardian statues, and become the strongest spirit suppressor alive.
01:25:27Only then can you take their place, and end this century-long nightmare for good.
01:25:41Ten a day, right? Fine. Since this whole mess landed on a mortician like me, I'll take everything in this
01:25:51tomb, one by one, and lay it all to rest, nice and clean.
01:25:57The end.
