Rules Strange Tales: SSS Talent? I Play With Them All

Jiang Ran's soul swapped with his parallel world self, and he arrived in a strange world of rules. Amidst rules that are hard to distinguish between true and false, and a succession of ill-inte...

Chapter 360 The Pursuit of a Near-God!

"You! What do you mean by that?!" Being suddenly asked such a question made Qian Erliang furious. "You all look down on me! This is the second time someone has asked me this kind of question! You all just wait!"

I'm going to become very rich today!

"snort!"

Qian Erliang stomped on the cigarette butts on the ground a few times, glared fiercely at Jiang Ran, and then strode away like a big shot.

[Qian Erliang (King of Devils), Hostility: 82%]

"He'll become rich today?" Gwen was both amused and exasperated. "That's just a gambler's self-consolation! What ability does he have to make a fortune today? Even if he wanted to gamble, he wouldn't even have his initial capital left, and he probably wouldn't even be able to afford dinner!"

"But we can't say that. After all, we only need to determine whether he is lying or not. According to the order, Qian Erliang is the second important character in the plot. Since he is listed so early in the order, the possibility of him lying should be small."

Regardless, even if Qian Erliang had the luck of finding a wad of cash while out and about, he would still be very rich today. The concept of being very rich is vague, and no one knows exactly how much money is considered very rich.

It's also possible that he found 10 yuan on the street and then made a fortune at the casino. In short, as long as he got a lot of money today, it doesn't matter if he wasn't lying.

Qian Erliang said this was the second time someone had asked him this question, which meant that someone had already asked it before. That must have been the Black Sheep Kingdom's ghost storyteller who was the first to get information about this plot character!

"To be able to obtain the seal so quickly and find out the specific questions that need to be asked, this Black Sheep Kingdom's ghost storyteller is not to be underestimated!"

Coming from the Black Sheep Country and only being an S-rank, it's indeed easy to overlook.

Jiang Ran remembered that the Black Sheep Kingdom's leader's name was Yang Hai. Good, he remembered the name.

After getting the answer to the question, Yang Hai didn't rush to verify its truth. After all, they couldn't be so reckless as to tell the referee that Qian Erliang had lied, nor could they follow Qian Erliang around without doing anything else. So they could only put his matter aside for now.

Jiang Ran felt the same way. Who knew when Qian Erliang would actually make his fortune today? He might as well spend that time finding a few more important characters in the plot.

"Let's go, Gwen, let's go find Yin Si Gou."

"Damn it! They all look down on me! Just wait, I'll make them regret it!" Qian Erliang turned and disappeared into a dark alley, then pulled a red stamp from his pocket!

"Grandpa said we must protect this thing and pass it down through generations? Humph! I don't see anything special about this seal—but it is indeed my lucky seal!"

Qian Erliang laughed loudly, and a man in a purple cloak walked out of the darkness: "So, Mr. Qian, how about it? I'll buy your seal for 1 million. Have you considered it?"

"I'll sell! Of course I'll sell! Take it, take it, transfer the money to me right now! Haha! From now on, I, Qian Erliang, am a tycoon, a rich man!"

When the cloaked man approached Qian Erliang and offered to buy his seal for 1 million, Qian Erliang didn't immediately agree. Firstly, he was afraid of being scammed, and secondly, if the other party was really willing to spend such a large sum of money to buy the seal, it might be something valuable!

However, after studying it for several days, he couldn't find anything special or valuable about the seal. Now, all he wanted was to exchange it for money as soon as possible! He would exchange it for even 10,000 yuan, let alone 1 million!

The cloaked man smiled and accepted the seal.

"The money has already been transferred."

"Yes—really! Hahaha!"

Both sides achieved a satisfactory result.

Li Long opened his eyes, his face full of gloom.

"We can't get in touch with them; they're probably dead."

"What did you say, Uncle Long? Death?" Yang Sanqiang asked incredulously. "Zhao Gui and the other three are all [King of Ghosts] level Awakeners! They're elites, one in a hundred. If the four of them joined forces, unless..."

Unless one is near-godlike?

"Their strength is formidable!" Li Long stood up and pulled up his coat. "To prevent any of them from escaping, their strength is definitely no less than mine! They must be a big shot among the Demon Apostles! So we must capture them!"

"This time, I will go with your Uncle Ping and try to cooperate as much as possible. If all else fails, we will kill him on the spot!"

"Even Uncle Lianping is going?! They're making such a big fuss?!"

Hong Ping, also one of Yang Zong's sworn brothers, and of course also a sworn brother of Li Long, is also a near-god level awakener!

"There's no other way, it's just three shots." Li Long smiled wryly. "The opponent is also a [Near God] level Awakener. It's not safe for me to go alone. Since we've decided to take action, we can't afford to fail!"

"Alright, then I'll wait here for your good news, Uncles!"

Yang Sanqiang knew that this level of battle was not for him to watch from the sidelines. Although he wanted to participate, he was powerless to do so.

"By the way! I'm worried that they might be setting a trap for us!" Li Long's face grew even more grim. "That near-god level awakener we encountered before—I checked the street surveillance footage, and I found that he was also inquiring about the seal's whereabouts! So we absolutely cannot trust those people either!"

"They sent this video, and it's very likely they deliberately set a trap for us, wanting us to send people over so they'd get killed! Well, I'm not going to let them have their way. I refuse to believe that any trap can take down two [Near God] level Awakened!"

Li Long immediately contacted Hong Ping, and the two of them went together to the location of the "Demon Apostle"!

"This is simply unbelievable! The question they asked Yin Sigou was something like this?!"

Yin Sigou is a recluse with no friends. Alansta eavesdrops and eventually sneaks into Yin Sigou's basement. Inside an old box, he finds a note with questions for Yin Sigou.

However, this problem was completely unexpected by Aransta, and it even went beyond the original plot of this SSS-class ghost story world!

"Yin Sigou hasn't returned yet, and we don't know where he went."

Aransta slipped out again and stood in the backyard of Yin Sigou's house, lost in thought.

"This question... what exactly does this world mean?"

"Oh no! Aransta, run!"

Despite Arceus's timely warning, the speed of the [Near Gods] was simply too fast. In the blink of an eye, two [Near Gods] had already surrounded Aransta from the front and back!

"Demon Apostle, you can't escape!"
