Chapter 119 Chapter 119
The Curse Priest took out his notebook and began to write and draw, planning new settings and scripts.
"What should the organization be called?" The Curse Priest tilted his head and said.
The paper man who was facing the wall and chewing an apple threw the core into the trash can: "Let's call it 'How a person can save the world with a vest'."
The Curse Priest's forehead was bulging with veins: "Your name is called a title, not the name of the organization. And calling it that is like self-destruction."
No matter what happens in the future, Qingtong is determined not to drop the vest. It is no longer a question of whether or not he will get into trouble if his identity is exposed. Instead, he will do a live broadcast and direct and act it himself, creating vests to talk to each other and the background of the entire organization. If they are found out, he will be so ashamed that he will have to live on another planet.
"I'm not good at naming." The Curse Priest said softly, then looked at the paper figure.
Without turning around, the paper man was able to sense the gazes on him. He asked, "Then why do you think that my other self is good at naming?"
The curse priest turned his head.
The salvation system came over: "Host, this system can provide many organization names! You can choose any one!!"
"Oh, what?"
"The Fantasy City Empire, the Silver Moon Dynasty, the Bloodthirsty Guild, and Xiongao..."
The Curse Priest interrupted and asked, "Which website did you search for this?"
Savior System: "...these names are very popular on the Internet."
"These are all names that middle school game clubs would come up with." The Curse Priest looked out the window. It was already dark, and the street lights were on. A few people were walking home along the lighted road.
"Lights," the curse-priest whispered.
The paper figurine turned and looked at him.
Qingtong, wearing the vest of a cursed priest, stood up and walked to the window: "If anyone asks about the name of the organization, let's call it the Light."
In the dark night, may a light guide you on the road ahead until dawn.
Paper Figure: "Isn't that too straightforward? We are all weird after all."
If we let weirdness lead the way, will it really not lead us straight to hell?
Qingtong, who kept drawing weird vests but no hero cards, felt like he was stabbed.
Even the shell of the Curse Priest couldn't stop this damage, a critical hit.
"Stop talking nonsense." The curse priest pointed at the paper man with a trembling hand, "Get out of here."
The paper man shrugged: "Okay, where should I go?"
The Faceless Boy is guarding East China with Heng City as the center, Tong is watching North China with Beijing as the center, and the Straw Boy should be in the southwest of Wangshui City.
Where will he go in the remaining regions?
"I originally planned to let you stay in Central China... but now, you should go to the Northwest." said the Curse Priest.
The paper figurine laughed: "Is this considered exile to a remote frontier?"
"No. I looked at the map. Although there are fewer people on the west map, the area is vast. In addition, my positioning for you is that the whole country supports you. You can go wherever there is a shortage of people to help you." The curse priest said, "Now, the blank map in the west is too large. Qin Xiaocao alone can't take care of so many places. It's more convenient with you."
The paper figure nodded and was about to leave when the curse priest spoke again, "Tomorrow night, remember to release all the paper figures in your hands and put them back."
The paper man was startled: "All?"
The Curse Priest nodded: "All of them."
Whether it is the people caught in several live broadcasts, or the three tomb robbers caught when the Weird Merchant alias was released, all of them must be released, without leaving a single one.
The live broadcast game that was like playing house is over, and what comes next is the real weirdness.
"If we release all of them, it will cause a huge uproar on the Internet. Why not wait until something strange happens before taking action? What will people discuss online then..."
Curse Priest: "It doesn't matter. Just one day after you release everyone, the weirdness will come in full force. After the weirdness comes in full force, they will probably think that the world has undergone a huge change, which led to these people being released."
Paper Figure: "No one would guess that 'even if I'm caught by the weird domain, I'll get out one day', so I'd rather take the weirdness lightly and not take it seriously."
Curse Priest: "No, because when the real weirdness appears, there will be corpses."
After seeing the body, no one will feel lucky anymore.
If there are still a small number of people who hold naive ideas, there is nothing we can do. Those who are arrested must be released. It is impossible to trap them for the rest of their lives. And it would be best to give them some time to contact their families.
If they are released after the strange event occurs, they may be separated from their loved ones forever when they are released.
"I have delayed long enough," the Curse Priest whispered. "Enough."
"I'll listen to you." The paper man said, "If you say anything, I'll have to run all over the place. I have to run from Heng City to Ni Country, and then cross the sea to the United States and Silver Country to release the people."
"Why, I can't call you anymore?"
"How could that be? I'll go right away." The sly smile on the paper man's face gradually deepened and then disappeared.
The curse priest looked at the darkness outside the window, sighed, and canceled the performance.
The man in white robe disappeared in the house. Qingtong, who was far away at his father's house in Sui City, opened his eyes. He walked out of the room to pour himself a glass of water, and saw his father and stepmother watching TV on the sofa, with Qingxia next to them watching videos on her mobile phone.
"Xiaotong is out, do you want some watermelon?" After seeing Qingtong coming out, stepmother immediately said with a smile, "I just cut it. I was thinking of bringing it to you, but I saw that your room was closed and the lights were off, so I thought you were asleep and didn't disturb you."
"I took a short nap and don't want to eat watermelon now." Qingtong said.
"Would you like some juice?"
"No need." Qingtong also sat on the sofa, next to Qingxia. Qingxia moved her body to make some room for her brother.
"Really?" Stepmother smiled tenderly.
This stepmother was always a little distant and polite when facing Qingtong. Qingtong knew in her heart that she didn't hate herself, but was just not good at getting along with others because of her personality. She had tried very hard to have a good relationship with herself.
But there is really no need for two social phobias.
It’s better to be like Qingxia and just ignore others when you have nothing to say. How comfortable it is.
"Dad, I'm going back to Heng City tomorrow." Qingtong said to his father.
Father Qing was a little unhappy when he heard this: "Why go back? Do you have anyone to take care of you in Heng City? And now something big has happened. Check the news."
Qingtong looked at the TV. The news channel was broadcasting news about the coming of strange things, reminding everyone to stay vigilant in the next few days. Don't panic if strange and scary things happen. Stay calm and call the police at any time. At the same time, it is best not to be alone outside, stay with your family to reduce the chance of accidents.
As expected, China released the news the fastest, while some other countries are still trying to cover up the truth.
He revealed the news several times during the live broadcast, and some leaders stood on the podium to tell everyone that the advent of weirdness is not a scary thing, and no one knows weirdness better than themselves. Just be careful and do what needs to be done. Don't let a few weirdness disrupt your plans.
Even Qingtong himself didn't dare to say that he understood weird things, even though he had already received a lot of relevant information from the system, he really dared to say it.
"I'm going back to Heng City." Qingtong said again, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
There should be no one in this world who is safer than him.
The salvation system said that even if his body was destroyed, he could continue to exist through other aliases. As long as one alias was still alive, he would not die.
Among all his vests, Kairet's first skill is immortality.
So Qingtong didn't worry about his own safety at all.
Wait, does this mean that he has gained eternal life in disguise?
Qingtong suddenly thought of this problem, his expression changed slightly, but soon relaxed again.
Small issues like life and death and longevity are not worth thinking about seriously when facing the end of the world. Let’s just get through the difficulties in two days first.
"I've bought the ticket," Qingtong added, "and we'll leave tomorrow morning."
"Hey, you're not listening, are you?" Qing's father immediately stood up and said angrily, "Do you want me to call your mother and let her give you a good talk..."
"She knows." Qingtong said, "I have already mentioned it to her."
This was half true and half false. Before coming, Qingtong just told his mother that he would stay for a few days, stay for a few days at his father's place, and then return to Heng City. He did not say how many days he would stay or when he would return.
But in the end you have to return it.
Given his current situation, with so many secrets, living alone is the best outcome.
"Will your mother agree?" Qing's father asked in disbelief. He was about to take out his cell phone to question, but was stopped by Qingtong.
"I knew you were playing tricks on me. She knew she could let you go alone..."
Seeing that Qing's father started nagging again, Qingtong said, "School is about to start, and I still have to go to school."
Speaking of going to school, Qing's father paused for a moment, and then he said angrily: "What about taking a leave of absence? It's not like you can't take a year off."
"The advent of the weird won't end anytime soon, I can't stay at university forever. Besides, I have somewhere I want to go in the future." Qingtong said, "After graduation, I plan to work in the weird response department."
Qing's father was stunned, and even stepmother and Qingxia looked up at him.
"I am an adult now," Qingtong added, "and this is the path I have chosen."
Qingtong planned to do so after the establishment of the strange response department.
All of his aliases are saving the world. As the original Qingtong, since he doesn't need to worry about his own safety, it's a good opportunity for him to contribute.
The system said that there are many secret books and props in the mall that can help people deal with weird things. In addition to letting Bai Yixin trade these things to others, Qingtong will also use them to strengthen himself.
He is the manipulator behind the strange vests, but that doesn't mean Qingtong will never appear in front of the public.
You can't just hide at home forever like a mouse, with your real body lying there with your vest open.
Qing's father looked very serious. After a while, he asked, "Have you made up your mind?"
"I think very clearly."
Father Qing was silent for a long time. He sat down slowly, waved his hand and said, "Okay, then go ahead."
The stepmother frowned: "Xiaotong, that... is very dangerous."
"It's OK."
Qingxia got up and went to her room. When she came out, she handed a USB drive to Qingtong: "Our teacher sent me the physical training materials. You need to practice them."
Qingtong accepted it: "Well, thank you."
"Just live a good life and thank me." Qingxia's tone was a little bit awkward. She scrolled through the videos for a while, then turned off her phone when she felt bored. She asked, "When are you leaving tomorrow?"
"Seven in the morning."
"I'll take you to the station."
"OK."
