Chapter 33 Choosing the Target Legend

Author: Robot Wall-E

Chapter 33 Choosing the Target Legend

【Hometown Bar】

Early in the morning, after a day, Lei Yue came to this dark alley again.

He looked at the neon sign hanging above the warehouse, listened to some lively sounds coming from the warehouse, and strode inside.

Different from the cold weather yesterday, at this time, there were customers chatting and drinking at the bar and at the many wine tables, probably after having fun all night long.

I don't know if he is a native of Dongzhou or someone from Spread City.

Lei Yue saw that there was no familiar figure at the bar, so he walked towards the stairs.

The crow on the left shoulder did not warn, it just stood on the flesh, a pair of black eyes seemed to be closed to meditate.

After appearing yesterday, this blackbird friend has never left, either on his shoulder or standing around to rest.

Da Da Da, Lei Yue walked up the iron frame stairs. Although the stairs were shaky every time he stepped on the steps, he was not as nervous as yesterday, but rather excited.

Quickly reaching the second floor of the bar, he glanced around and walked towards the black leather sofa.

I saw three figures sitting on the sofa chatting, seemingly waiting for his arrival.

Seeing him at this time, the expressions of the three people changed. His arrival was an answer.

"Haha." Ginny showed a big smile, stood up, opened her hands and stepped forward to hug, "Welcome!"

"I'm here." Lei Yue raised his ugly face to them, "Let's do it."

"Yeah!" Ginny cheered, jumping a few times on the spot, looking very sexy in her open-breasted dress.

Lackey immediately whistled and waved his arms, "Get up and get excited!"

Mohawk was still sitting in the middle of the sofa, looking at him with a resolute Chinese character face, and nodded to him.

Suddenly, Lei Yue heard the music in the bar change.

It was no longer soft jazz, but a rock song with a stirring melody. The sound of the electric guitar was like boiling blood. He could tell it was "JUMP" by the Van Halen band and knew it was a song by Mohawk.

This time, his mood became clearer and he nodded towards the man with short mohawk hair.

"Oh my God, we have to do so many things, and Huahua isn't here, so I have to do the work!"

Ginny ran to Lei Yue, looked at him with her eyes, measured the size of his clothes with her hands, and was so anxious:

"Xiao Yue, I want to give you a celebrity look.

"The so-called star is a symbol. When constructing a symbol, all aspects must be considered, and styling is the top priority, because this is what the audience sees most directly.

"You give interviews, you participate in games, walk around area X, solve puzzles, fight... you can't be casual every time you make a public appearance.

"Don't say, 'I don't care.' If you dress casually and act like a fool, then whatever, the fool is your look, the image you spread to the outside world, and the fool becomes your business card.

"Oh! It's best if the shape is an urban legend that resonates with you.

"But when you debut for the first time, you may not already be a mutant. You may still have a blank slate, so you need to work on your look first."

Ginny's voice was more restless than a rock song. She circled around Lei Yue and said:

"Although the urban legend caused by alien resonance is uncontrollable, if the whole person works hard towards a certain goal, the success rate cannot be said to be zero. Right Mohawk?"

"Yeah." Mohawk responded, "It will have an impact, but it requires sincere efforts."

Lackey started shooting with the DV player and said cheerfully:

"At that time, Lao Mo opened a small black shop selling scripts for children to play with. In the end, he transformed himself into the Momo Challenge. Okay - start shooting!"

Lackey quickly introduced the situation to the camera:

"As the saying goes, we are all aliens. If your eyes can breathe fire, it will not bring you wealth and power. But if you have a team to run it for you, you can smoke from your butt and become a big shot.

"Now, our gold medal team is styling Lei Yue! You will witness the birth of a superstar."

Over there, Ginny walked back to the sofa, took a red fashion handbag, and found a large book.

"Take a look at this first." She put the book on the coffee table, and the bar's glare illuminated the title on the cover:

"Encyclopedia of Urban Legends"

Lei Yue opened his eyes and took a look, his heart suddenly jumped, as if he saw some secret book.

"This book records a lot of urban legends. I can't give it to you yet, otherwise you will collapse if you ask for it without restraint."

Ginny hugged the book with a charming look that she couldn't give him.

"Laki's little tip: You can buy a book like this at any street store in the main realm for more than ten yuan," Lackey said derisively.

"My copy is a collector's edition!" Ginny said anxiously, "There are also some people's autographs on it." She winked.

She opened the encyclopedia and said:

"Let's first see if there is a goal that suits your efforts. At least there is a predetermined direction, so that we can decide on the style..."

"Oh." Lei Yue opened his head and looked at it.

Because he was afraid that his mobile phone would be monitored, he had not checked "urban legends" online from yesterday to now.

"Will it be resonance from the source world or resonance from another world?"

As Ginny spoke, she realized that she had said something that Lei Yue did not understand, so she explained:

"Source world resonance means that you resonate with the urban legends of your home world; alien resonance refers to the urban legends of other worlds, the main realm.

"It is generally believed that there is no superiority or inferiority between the two. There are more in the source world and less in the other world.

"But the best thing is that there is a theme that exists in every world. Although it is slightly modified in different places, the core form is the same urban legend.

"In this way, when your alien body spreads, no matter where you are, people will be able to get what you are."

After hearing what Ginny said, Lei Yue couldn't help but ask:

"Is it possible that it will be a brand new urban legend?"

Ginny didn't understand very well at this time, so Mohawk replied: "It's not impossible, but..."

Mohawk paused to think about his words, and then said:

"For the study of urban legends, there are various schools of thought in the main realm, and there are experts and professors all over the world.

"Those people have made in-depth analyzes on topics such as motifs, archetypes, subconsciousness, and group consciousness, but urban legends still cannot be 'created.'"

Lei Yue had an idea after listening to it, "Is this like a big-budget, heavily promoted movie that may not necessarily be a hit and may fail on the street; but a small-budget movie may be a big hit?"

"It can be understood that way." Mohawk nodded, "Urban legends are spontaneous phenomena, and no one can clarify the variables."

"Fortunately that's the case!" Lackey laughed, "Otherwise, it would all be for the big companies to play around with, and we wouldn't be able to perform at all?"

Lackey held up the DV player and walked to Ginny while talking, and said:

"I thought of an urban legend that is very suitable for thunder resonance! In my memory, no one has ever resonated with it."

"Which one?" Ginny asked.

Lei Yue thought in his mind, full of curiosity and expectation, which one?

Swish, Lackey reached out to the encyclopedia and flipped through it, turning to one of the pages.

Lei Yue saw on the page a man whose face was made up of two different halves, lying on the operating table with a look of shock on his face. The encyclopedia text read:

【Failed Plastic Surgery Man】

[Introduction: There was a middle-aged man who went for plastic surgery, but suffered a heart attack during the plastic surgery process, so the plastic surgery was only half completed. In the end, this person’s face was half that of a middle-aged man and half that of a young man. 】

[Resonance history: no record]

[Card type: unknown, estimated card type: draw]

[Estimated type: Strange person type]

"Haha!" Lackey looked at the people around him happily, "Isn't there a good chance?"

"Hey." Ginny had no intention of joking and said in a serious tone: "It's definitely not this, and it's a draw card."

"It's a draw, Lei Zi, I thought about it over and over last night, it's not right!"

Lackey looked at the expressionless Lei Yue, "If you say you are the trump card, you only have half of it. If you say you are the ghost card, you only have half of it. A draw is best for you."

"..." Lei Yue felt a little helpless. How should I put it? It was true that he and his mother-in-law had never worked hard on plastic surgery before.

He also worked hard and searched for a plastic surgeon who could repair him for many years, but his expectations were met with failure every time.

Having said that, this urban legend...a man who failed in plastic surgery?

"Well, the strange type?" He asked another question, remembering that there were always twenty-six types.

"Strange people, odd people, weirdos, freaks."

Moxi Gan replied eloquently, and he was much more active than yesterday. It seemed that yesterday he was helping Ayasha, and now he wants to teach this newcomer:

"Urban legends about strange people are usually a little absurd and funny, giving people the feeling that... is this okay?

"The most common types of oddball aliens are draws. Some of their abilities can only be used to create atmosphere, but some of them can have unexpected effects."

Lei Yue was silent, and suddenly he didn't want to resonate with this legend even more.

What a strange person, Lackey is quite like a strange person.

It is precisely for this reason that the strange person group cannot arouse his enthusiasm.

"Leizi, what name should I give you? It would be better to use the name of an urban legend, but for a legend like this that is too difficult to pronounce, it would be better to have something special."

Lackey was still thinking about it, as if he thought he would resonate with this, "The man who failed in plastic surgery? The man who changed his face?"

"Laki, shut up and stop causing trouble!"

Ginny took the encyclopedia back into her hands and scolded Lackey as if she couldn't keep her good temper, "Don't you see that Xiao Yue has no interest at all? It can't be like this."

"Oh, tell me, which one is it?" Lackey dismissed.

"Just say it, I've already thought of it! Xiao Yue, I called Huahua last night and I heard that you were disfigured due to a fire when you were a child, and..."

Ginny stopped talking and said with a maternal look on her face, "Everyone knows your life story."

Lei Yue shrugged, because he wanted to take leave while his grandmother was in the hospital, so he briefly mentioned his family situation to Sister Hua.

"You are lucky." Lackey's mouth would not shut up. "My parents were burned to death in a fire. Unlike me, I can't even burn my parents to death if I set fire to them. They like to torture me for fun."

"

"...?" Lei Yue frowned, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Although I had known that everyone here was a negative choice... Is what Lackey said true...

So, what about Ayasha...

"Lucky, shut up." Mohawk's voice became darker, "Shut up."

Lucky finally shut up. Ginny opened a page in the encyclopedia and tapped it with her finger painted with red nail polish. "Xiao Yue, I think this can be used as a target."

"Oh?" Lei Yue put away his distracting thoughts and immediately looked over and saw another urban legend on the paper.
