Chapter 23: Accepting the invitation, trapped in the time loop Chen Xiang froze in his tracks, turned around, stared at Lecturer Zhu, and muttered to himself: "Dedetan?" "Yes, Teitan." Teacher Zhu smiled and said: "According to the Old Council, this Emperor Tan once commanded the Three Pillars of Time, Truth, and Destiny, and commanded nine Outer Gods and nine Old Ones. Isn't that ridiculous? How is this possible?" Chen Xiang didn't continue listening to him, and he was a little dazed. He finally made up his mind and felt relieved. In a trance, he seemed to hear repeated prayers that sounded like whispers. "Great Titan." "The foundation of all worlds, the weaver of reality, the pillar of eternity." "Every ray of light is your thought, every shadow is your silence. You define the essence of the universe and decide the subordination of all spirits."
He shook his head violently, and the auditory hallucinations disappeared, but his hair stood on end, and his hands and feet were cold, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. Being a Titan is not a good thing. ……………… "Report, this is the summary of the current investigation. The person with the greatest suspicion is Chen Xiang, the assistant teacher at Colossus College, followed by Li Dongyun, the leader of the Eighth Ring Underground Force, the Fire Gate." The old woman took the investigation report and read it word by word with a solemn expression: "Chen Xiang, an 18-year-old boy, ordinary and mediocre, why is he the most suspicious?" The inspector of the Secret Investigation Department said respectfully: "The doubt is just ordinary and commonplace. Here is a video clip, please take a look." The old woman opened the video, which showed a young man fighting with a strong man. "The young man is Chen Xiang, and the sturdy man is called Man Dong. He is the martial arts chief of the underground organization Crocodile Sect, and is at the quasi-extraordinary level. The strength Chen Xiang showed in the video is probably at the level of a secret martial arts master." The inspector said meticulously: "The two sides fled and chased each other into a deep alley. There was no surveillance in the alley, and the result of this battle was that Man Dong died, and Chen Xiang was unharmed." "Oh?" Wu Mengling became interested and checked Chen Xiang's file again and again: "Interesting. He was so ordinary in the first eighteen years, but suddenly he showed the ability to kill quasi-extraordinary people." Although she is now standing at a very high position, she has climbed up step by step after all, and she knows how difficult it is to become quasi-extraordinary. "Did you bring the person back?" the old woman asked casually. The inspector shook his head: "In reply to Deputy Director Wu, it's too late. Are we going to catch him now?" "No, just follow the procedure and be steady." The old woman slowly stood up: "If this little guy is really related to the ghost at the level of the Heavenly Envoy, we need to be extremely cautious. I will go and take a look myself."
“You’re going in person?” The inspector was shocked. This man of his was ranked second among the four deputy directors, was on the third step of the extraordinary secret path, a [Saint] who had ignited the divine fire! The so-called saint means the pinnacle of "human beings". Anyone above that is no longer a human being. "This involves a heavenly messenger and a level one disaster. We cannot be too cautious." The old woman said calmly: "Okay, pass on my message, be careful!" "Yes!" The inspector bowed respectfully and left, while the old woman glanced at Chen Xiang's information, tore open the spiritual world, and stepped in. After a moment, she located herself in the spirit world, and when she walked out of the spirit world, she was already in Room 47 of Building 208, Eighth Ring Road. "interesting." The old woman glanced at the door blocked by the refrigerator and wardrobe, scanned the living room, and when she saw nothing unusual, she checked room by room. "A very ordinary family. There is no extraordinary energy left, and nothing unusual." She frowned slightly, closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, a vague and ethereal color appeared in her eyes, as if she could see through everything. "Secret room." The old woman nodded, walked into Chen Shaoyan's room, and looked at the closet for a moment. Her expression was majestic, as if she was issuing an imperial decree: "open." ‘Crack! ’ The mechanism turned on its own and the door of the secret room slowly opened. The old woman walked in. …… The old woman walked out of the spirit world, glanced at the door blocked by the refrigerator and wardrobe, and smiled: "Quite interesting." Her eyes were dark and saw through everything, and she found a secret room. She opened the door of the secret room and walked in. …… The old woman walked out of the spirit world, glanced at the door blocked by the refrigerator and wardrobe, and smiled: "Interesting. Hmm?" She frowned slightly, feeling that this scene seemed familiar: “I always feel like something is wrong.” After finding a secret room, the old woman entered the secret room for the third time and walked out of the spirit world for the fourth time. The fifth time, the sixth time, the seventh time. ……………… Chen Xiang was still in a daze until he walked side by side with Wei Qingqiu through the bronze school gate. "what happened to you?" Silver-haired Xiao Wei looked curiously: "Are you scared? Or what? What do you think about the invitation?" Chen Xiang came back to his senses and exhaled lightly: "I'll join."
"Really?!" Wei Qingqiu's eyes suddenly lit up and he smiled: "I thought you would choose to refuse after hearing what Mr. Zhu said about terrorist organizations." Chen Xiang calmed down and stopped thinking about Di Tan for the time being. He asked curiously: "If I refuse to join a secret organization like yours, will I be silenced?" "That's not the case." Wei Qingqiu's eyebrows and eyes are curved: "I'll just use 099 on you to make you forget." "099?" Chen Xiang was stunned. He was very familiar with this naming method, from the crazy mirror 009 to the broken cane 011 that was suspected to be the [Pillar of Time and Space] Wei Qingqiu nodded: "The full name is Taboo 099, the Forgotten Pendulum. Taboo objects often have all kinds of incredible effects. Of course, they also come with unbearable costs." After a pause, she continued: "The higher the number of the forbidden item, the more powerful it is, and the greater the cost of using it." "The cost of using it?" Chen Xiang's eyelids twitched: "Can you tell me more about it?" Wei Qingqiu smiled and said: "For example, the 099 Forgotten Pendulum, which is suspected to come from the True God under the command of the Forgotten, can delete the memory of a living being. The cost of using it is relatively small. If it is not overused, it will only cause a short-term deterioration in memory." "What about overuse?" "Completely lost the ability to 'remember'." Chen Xiang nodded silently. Taboo, price. Is there a price for the epileptic mirror? Where is the cane? The mirror itself has been used twice, and there is no so-called "cost" at all, because. Titan? ? His mood grew heavy. Chen Xiang did not think that the fact that he was most likely the 'greatest' in the eyes of the old parliament was good news. He knew clearly that he was not the so-called greatest one, and that he came from the earth where there was no God! Although the memories of the previous life are vague, they are real. And To put it bluntly. That so-called Emperor Tan is already a loser. There are nine outer gods above, and three pillars that control time, truth, and destiny. If I were really the Emperor, how could I turn the tables? It's almost like dying isn't fast enough!! The question is, if I were Emperor Tan, could I hide? Chen Xiang felt a chill in his heart. Can't escape. The only way is to become stronger, as fast as possible. He was determined to use the token to try to become a so-called councillor. You'll know more there. Danger often comes with opportunity, and you are already in the greatest danger. He thought of the black flame and then thought of [Authority Completion]. "What are you thinking?" A white little hand waved in front of Chen Xiang, and Wei Qingqiu smiled:
"Now just wait for me to report to the Speaker, and then you will officially join the Old Parliament. Don't worry, this will definitely pass." "Does this matter need to be reported to the Speaker?" Chen Xiang asked in surprise. Wei Qingqiu said cheerfully: "The Speaker is the boss of our boss, and don't underestimate the Old Messengers. There are not as many as you think. The most numerous ones are the Fire Seeds. Today is the 7th, and tomorrow is the 8th, which happens to be the time for the parliament to convene. After midnight, when the parliament completes its review, your status as the Old Messenger will be confirmed!" After a pause, she blinked and said playfully: "I will transfer another Old Spark to your side later, and he will obey your command directly. Warm reminder, you know this Spark!" "I know?" Chen Xiang looked sideways in surprise. He didn't have time to think much about the parliament meeting. He was just thinking. Are there any old flames among the people you know? Wei Qingqiu stretched and looked at the bright sunshine: "Okay, I'll send you the credentials and the fire starter's file and stuff later tomorrow, um, and the benefits." Chen Xiang smiled and nodded: "I have to move tomorrow. The police station has allocated a villa to my second brother. I also have to pick up a disabled child." "Then call me after you move?" "to make." The two parted at the fork in the road, and Wei Qingqiu got into the sky blue sports car: "Someone from the Secret Investigation Department may come to look for you recently. You must be careful not to be noticed." "no problem." Chen Xiang watched the sky blue sports car go away and hurried back home. ……………… Building 47, 208. The old woman entered the secret room for the seventy-seventh time and walked out of the spirit world for the seventy-eighth time. She looked at the door blocked by the refrigerator and wardrobe, and said with a smile: “That’s interesting!!!” Her eyes were bloodshot, her smile was frozen on her face, and she looked horrified.
