Chapter 612 - The Wager
Chapter 612: The Wager
On the second day of the New Year, Ling Ping’an returned to the bookstore that he had been living in for 24 years.
Across from the bookstore, there were lights and decorations.
Scientists from all over the world seemed to be celebrating the new year as well.
He knew that at this moment, the old abandoned industrial park had become the place with the highest density of scientists on this planet.
The scientific elites from the federal empire, Fusang, Xinluo, Siam, Jiaozhi, Samboja, Ceylon, and more than ten other countries had gathered here.
In addition, scientists from the distant states of Butania, Fran, Shenluo, Odin, and the Greek city-states had also arrived in droves.
Apart from the generous salary and good treatment, the scientists’ great thirst for knowledge was the greatest driving force.
In the abandoned industrial park, scientists could observe phenomena that could not be observed elsewhere.
This included subtle changes in psionic power.
The fusion of technology and psionic power.
And most importantly… The ideas!
The industrial park near the bookstore would always be exposed to radiation from the bookstore at night.
The knowledge that the monsters hiding and entrenched in the bookstore couldn’t help but spread out should have turned into endless curses.
It would drag the smartest and most curious people on this planet into a twisted and crazy world.
But because of Ling Ping’an’s existence, these terrifying taboos became a trickle.
It nourished their brain and also made their thinking more active than ever.
“I just don’t know if this is good or bad…” He pulled up the shutter door and walked to the counter.
Bastet immediately found its favorite place and lay down.
When Ling Ping’an sat on the chair, his eyes were looking at the glass door of the bookstore.
There was an evil eye that was emitting a hidden light that humans couldn’t see. It was slowly rotating, and behind the evil eye were billions of light balls that were extremely bright.
The Silver Key’s strength acted as a sort of filter.
It left most of the taboos and craziness in this bookstore.
But, the Silver Key had no good intentions.
Ling Ping’an gently waved his hand, and a book suddenly appeared in his hand.
It was the “Secrets of cosplay” that he had once sold.
It was also the “Abyss investigation report” that had been completely synthesized!
In a tender manner, he opened the title page.
The crazy words and taboo strength written by the silver key gushed out.
However, in front of him, the strength that even gods could pollute was as simple as a breeze.
Having completed the first energy transfer, he was already able to use part of the monster’s strength in his human form.
He even knew the thoughts of the monster’s main body that was sleeping somewhere.
He even had the intention to communicate with it.
Of course, it was best not to do such a thing!
Even if the monster was himself, he should not do it!
Looking at the book in his hand, Ling Ping’an’s fingers gently slid.
The pages of the book opened one by one, and each page had the appearance of a girl on it.
It was the first time the Silver Key’s strength had been used to complete the demon hunt.
It was also the first time the young girl had refined a potion.
She had gradually grown up, and under the control of the silver key, she was walking on the old path.
Everything about that young girl had already been recorded in this book.
After he put down the book in his hand, he looked in the direction of the industrial park.
It was the same in the book, and it was also the same outside the book.
Although the silver key was the most normal of all the other gods.
Ordinary beings could even leave alive after facing it directly.
But this did not mean that the silver key was benevolent.
This terrifying foreign God had two incarnations: The merciful Amur and the furious Agopemon.
And these two incarnations were actually two sides of the same body, existing simultaneously.
Even if he was facing Amur, he was also facing Agopemon directly!
In fact, his kindness could turn into a flame of anger at any time.
His kindness could instantly turn into rage that tore everything apart!
Just like that girl, just like everyone in the industrial park, and even this world!
The kindness at this moment.
Perhaps it was the terror at that moment!
“I cannot fail!” Ling Ping’an said in a low voice.
“I must succeed!”
If he failed, he would transform into a monster and devour all the worlds.
All those who were close to him would be distorted.
That encompassed the places where he lived, such as Jiangcheng City and Qilipu village.
And also the school he had attended.
All of them would be twisted into the most dangerous and terrifying purgatory in the universe under the terrifying strength.
With this thought in mind, he picked up his phone, opened his phone, and found He Rourou.
immediately, he edited a message and sent it over.
He still needed children.
More children!
He wanted these children to buy him time and delay his awakening.
But this was actually a gamble.
Once he failed, these children would immediately be pulled by his main body and twisted into something as terrifying as an external god, who would tear the earth apart in an instant!
That was something that even if he still had a part of his reason at that time, he couldn’t stop.
In comparison, if he didn’t gamble, if he could still retain his reason, there might still be a chance for survival in this world.
He pushed all his chips to the gambling table.
He bet on himself winning!
He also bet that the monster would want him to win.
Otherwise, he would have no chance of winning!
…
He Rourou was currently in the annual meeting of the Lion City Group.
The Rose of lion city had used her indisputable strength to seize the entire family’s power!
The brothers and sisters she had feared in the past had all stepped aside and become her minions.
Even the three Buddhas of Samboja had expressed their allegiance to this Rose of Lion City.
Because she was powerful!
And in this era, strength was the greatest!
However, He Rourou was uninteresting, so she simply leaned back on all the people present, not listening to them arguing over trivial matters.
In her eyes, this was like ants in an ant nest discussing who would carry the rice that had fallen at the entrance of the nest. It was laughable and childish.
What was even more childish was that those people actually thought that she would take it seriously!
That was ridiculous!
He Rourou, who had already seen the sea and the true greatness, did not care about the matters between these ants at all!
Suddenly, her phone rang.
It was a ringtone that she had specially customized.
“Dong… Dong… Dong…”
It was like the sound of a heartbeat!
He Rourou immediately stood up and picked up the phone.
There was only one sentence on it: Where Are You? Come to the bookstore!
Instantly, she blushed and her whole body went soft.
She almost immediately picked up her bag and said to her secretary, “Prepare a plane for me and go to Jiang City immediately!”
Then, in front of all the people in the group, she stomped out of the door, and the management of the group looked at each other in dismay!
…..
In Ceylon, Zheng Manjing was dealing with state affairs.
It was mainly information from India.
Right now, India’s transcendent being-at-war had entered its climax.
The Indian subcontinent with a population of more than a billion people had split into hundreds of different forces fighting each other.
Under this super-chaotic magic raising mode.
There was also the Nightmare Realm’s support and stimulation.
The situation in India could be said to change every day.
The various parties even changed the king’s flag on the city walls.
No one could say for sure if the leader from yesterday was still alive today?
No one could know how many Indian generals were involved?
Only the satellite photos of the bloody and cruel chaotic battle were taken.
For this, the Ceylon Kingdom was on tenterhooks.
Even the three Samboja across the sea was scared out of their wits.
Thus, before the New Year, with the appeals and coordination of Ceylon, Samboja, Siam, and other countries, the Federal Empire finally decided to establish a safe zone for refugees in the north of India, which was close to Ceylon.
They would not allow India to raise voodoo like this anymore.
There were a billion people; who knew if they would raise a monster like Shiva?
As the Queen of Ceylon, Zheng Manjing certainly did not dare to slack off.
Suddenly, her phone in the drawer rang.
Sanskrit chants sounded.
This was the ringtone that she specially set.
Hearing the ringtone, the Queen of Ceylon quickly put down all her work and picked up the phone.
There was only one message on the phone.
“Come to Jiangcheng City!”
That message made her hands tremble.
She immediately told the Minister of State who was still in front of her, “Prepare a special plane for me right now!”
“I have to go to Jiangcheng City now!”
