"Witches refer to special women who are favored by the gods of the abyss because they have suffered extreme pain."
"The more painful they are, the more power they draw from the gods of the abyss. We speculate that this may be some kind of transaction: the witches provide the gods with painful emotions, and the gods give back the corresponding power."
"Of course, this is just our guess." Chen Ziang finally said.
"Do you think it's a transaction?" Nicole said with a smile, "Well, every race will use its own culture to try to understand the gods."
"So we guessed wrong?" Chen Ziang asked tentatively.
"I don't know." Nicole replied, "But it's definitely not a deal."
"Because according to what we know, gods do not need any painful emotions. Although there are indeed some gods who take pleasure in causing pain to lower races, these gods rarely have any contact with witches."
"If you ask me what I think, I think witches are special individuals with 'divine nature'. Once they suffer extreme pain and torture, causing severe damage to the humanity in their bodies, then the originally suppressed divinity will revive, causing them to gain
Power beyond ordinary people.”
"So, where did these divinities come from?" Chen Ziang asked in confusion.
"I don't know." Nicole said in an ethereal tone, "Things related to gods are always unpredictable and unpredictable."
"Putting aside those speculations, we Enlank have a war mission. Do you want Mr. Aske to think about it?"
"War mission?"
"And it is an indiscriminate war mission. As long as the mission is finally completed, everyone who takes the mission will receive merit, regardless of whether they actually participated in it or how much they contributed."
Seeing that Chen Ziang did not refuse, Nicole continued:
"We, the nightmare clan in the ancient city of Enlank, serve the god who is the Lord of the Deep Sea."
"The Lord of the Great Deep Sea once had a group of ghoul believers, but these shameless and despicable guys chose to convert and loyal to the 'King of Ghouls' in the flesh camp."
"Therefore, the Lord of the Great Deep Sea passed down the oracle. As long as you can kill the witch of the Ghoul King, you can get 1800 points of merit."
1800 merit points! Chen Ziang was shocked.
He usually kills monsters with the Mandala Sword, and the fire seeds he plunders are all in single digits. Now he suddenly heard that the mission reward is 1800 points... To use an analogy, it's like a guy with a salary of several thousand yuan suddenly receives an offer.
Just like a private life worth millions, I feel like my sanity is being impacted by the huge sum of money.
Well, wait...
The Witch of the Ghoul King?
Thinking of the mutated ghoul in Ginza in the sky, Chen Ziang asked cautiously:
"The specific identity of the witch you mentioned is..."
"She is also a human being." Nicole said in a leisurely tone, "As for the human name, it should be 'Fujiwara Mie'."
Mie Fujiwara? Chen Ziang was stunned for a moment before he realized that this name refers to "Mie Nishikawa", the witch who dropped the relics of the gods in Ginza in the sky.
After getting married, island women will change their surname to be the same as that of their husband's family. Nishikawa Meihui's surname "Nishikawa" actually comes from her husband.
The witch of the Ghoul King dropped the relics of the Lord of the Deep Sea into human society. Thinking of the hostile relationship between the Lord of the Deep Sea and the King of Ghouls hinted at by Nicole's words, Chen Ziang seemed to sense some kind of danger.
The conspiracy vortex is vaguely emerging in the sky above Jibei City.
————————
Back to reality.
Chen Ziang put away the Mandala Sword and the spiritual pressure meter, and looked at his phone again. The time was already 1:20 in the morning.
Um?
Someone sent him a message around 11 o'clock last night.
Due to the special nature of Countermeasure Section 6's work, emergency attendance orders may be received even at night, so he quickly clicked in to confirm.
[Jade Rabbit refuses to admit defeat]: Senior, are you asleep/Compare your feelings
[Jade Rabbit refuses to admit defeat]: Well, my dad was joking with you just now, don’t think too much?
[Jade Rabbit refuses to admit defeat]: Good night, see you tomorrow/ sweet dreams
This chat software will display "read", so Chen Ziang also developed the habit of replying to her after reading it, and he quickly typed a reply to her.
[Is there any urban legend?]: Oh, it’s okay. I would have almost forgotten it if you didn’t tell me. See you tomorrow.
After sending the message, Chen Ziang put down his phone and got into bed to sleep.
Moon Palace Family.
The daughter had already gone back to her room, and only the worried Tsukimiya Kiyomasa was talking to his wife Chiyo in the study.
"Since Suzuna likes him very much, why do you have to stop him?" Tsukimiya Chiyo comforted her husband, "Besides, since that man has no interest in Suzuna, at least it means that he is not the kind of person who covets the power of our family.
The villain."
"There are only two things I'm worried about." Kiyomasa Tsukimiya sighed and said, "One is that the conditions in that boy's family are too poor. If Suzuna stays with him, she is afraid that she will suffer in the future."
"It doesn't matter." Tsukimiya Chiyo said with a smile, "Sooner or later, our money will be left to Suzuna. As long as that person doesn't gamble, abuse drugs, or start a business, it will be more than enough to support them for a lifetime."
"Perhaps we can find connections with the public security system and promote him." Tsukimiya Kiyomasa thought thoughtfully.
"Then it's better not to do it." Tsukimiya Chiyo reminded, "Suzuna is still a colleague with him now. It's the time when we can get along day and night at work. If you promote him but not your daughter, wouldn't you separate the two of them at work? Promote them.
My daughter, Suzuna has only been in the job for a long time, so she will definitely be gossiped about."
"Yes." Tsukimiya Kiyomasa nodded, "But the second point I'm worried about is whether Suzuna really likes him."
"Young people's feelings always come and go quickly. I'm always worried that Suzuna will be hurt in the future because of her impulsiveness."
"Indeed." Tsukimiya Chiyo agreed with her husband and said softly, "How about I go talk to her?"
"What are you going to say?"
"I have to think about it..."
While her parents were worried about their daughter's relationship, Suzuna Tsukimiya was unaware of it in the room and was just lying on the bed playing with her mobile phone.
Her hair, which is usually tied with pom-pom hair ropes when outside, is now casually draped over her shoulders, looking pure and lovely. She has changed into pink and white furry pajamas, and her fair and lovely slender wrists are exposed under the loose cuffs.
Fingers clicked quickly on the screen.
After watching the short video for a while, she switched to the chat software to take a look, and then went back to watching the short video again, and so on, never getting tired of it.
Suddenly, a chat message notification popped up at the top of the screen.
It’s senior!
Tsukimiya Suzuna was so happy that she quickly clicked on it, wondering if senior would say good night to me?
It should be possible. After all, I also said good night to him. No matter how ignorant the senior is, he should know how to say "good night" back... Huh?
[Is there any urban legend?]: Tentacles, tentacles, if you don’t touch them, I will almost touch them. I will touch them tomorrow.
Tsukimiya Suzuna:???????
She jumped out of bed quickly, without having time to change her pajamas, so she put on a coat and hurried out of the bedroom.
Tsukimiya Chiyo was standing at the door of the room, thinking about how to test her daughter, but Tsukimiya Suzuna suddenly rushed out, which caught her off guard and almost fell to the ground.
"Suzuna!" When her daughter ran to the hall and started to change her shoes, Tsukimiya Chiyo suddenly realized and hurriedly chased after her and shouted, "Where are you going?"
"Work overtime!" Tsukimiya Suzuna shouted perfunctorily, "Work overtime at the last minute!"
"Wait a minute, I'll ask Emon to drive you!" Tsukimiya Kiyomasa quickly got up from the sofa.
"No need!" The only response to him was the fading voice of his daughter outside the door.
