Romance of Gods

Chapter 169 Return to the Kingdom
[There are still ten days before the opening of this competition. Actors who want to participate in this competition, please go to the Chiguo Hall to register as an individual or a group. After seven days, this registration will close]

Under the night, in the Tianwang Mountain, the streets and markets were bustling. A sudden sound in the air attracted everyone to stop. Then, the loud voice like a big bell repeated the announcement three times.

Tiny mosquitoes kept hitting the incandescent lamp hanging in front of the barbecue stall. It was already late at night, and there were only three or four regular customers in the stall chatting over beers.

"By the way, there was a commotion in Tianwangshan City some time ago. What is the whole story?"

"So many people died? Half of the city was bombed, and you didn't know?"

"Look what you said, if I knew, would I still ask? Didn't I go to play a novel!"

"Then you asked the right person. I know the inside story about this matter...but..."

"Okay, okay, I'll treat you to this meal today, ma yo tulu!"

"Come on! You're welcome, boss lady, serve thirty more lamb kidneys! It's so spicy!"

"right away!"

Lou Huowang, who was sitting on a plastic chair, was about to get up when Ye Zi immediately stopped him with his eyes and told him to continue resting. Then he started working in front of the grill.

The conversation continued behind the scenes.

"The child has no mother, it's a long story...I heard that a lunatic escaped from the nursing home in Tianwangshan City, started a gang in the city, and caused havoc everywhere. He said he formed a gang, called the Fushenhui...Then The lunatic is quite strong, and Chiguodian shed a lot of blood trying to catch him. It took me a full month of tormenting in the city before this man was captured and brought to justice."

"Sanatorium? What does a sanatorium do?"

"Aren't you short-sighted again? Most of the people who have been occupied by the dove's nest are locked there."

"And this thing!"

The conversation behind him became more and more secretive. If it were normal, Lou Huowang would have to step forward and intervene, but today, he just sat in a chair and smoked a cigarette, frowning.

Exhaling a breath, he pressed the cigarette butt to the ground and said to the air: "Defu, I asked you to contact Chen Yan. How is the situation now?"

After a while, someone in the air said: "In reply to your words, I contacted you just now, but I still haven't come back in the world of romance."

"Okay, I got it, keep in touch. If he comes back, write me a letter immediately."

"Come on! All guests, please order some kidneys!"

After serving the dishes to the guests with a smile, Ye Zi walked to Lou Huowang and said with a frown, "What's wrong? Haven't found everyone yet?"

Lou Huowang smiled bitterly and said: "I contacted five people, but now four of them are no longer in Changguo. It's not easy to handle."

Ye Zi wiped the tables and chairs with a rag and said calmly: "If there is no one around, we won't go. Isn't this good now?"

"Yeah, I'll think about it again."

Lou Huowang forced a smile and didn't say much. There were some things he didn't want to say to make his wife worry.

He is no longer considered an old man in Chiguo. He has also been to the world of competition once, and obtained a piece of embryo through bad luck, and became a first-level performer.

His creed in novels is to live in contentment as long as he can. As long as he can complete the novel safely, he will ask for nothing more.

But as the difficulty of the novel increased again and again, his strategy no longer worked.

Especially after Kowloon Walled City, almost all the dramas he participated in ended in failure.

His little fortune in magical talismans is almost exhausted. If he doesn't think of ways to improve his strength, he is afraid that he will soon be completely exhausted.

Just as he was thinking about it, the cell phone in his pocket rang.

Lou Huowang took it out and picked it up. A young woman's voice rang on the other side of the phone, "Hey, Brother Lou, are you still in Tianwang Mountain?"

"exist……"

"Hey, okay, I'll go to your place in a minute."

"Um...Xiao Xi, Brother Lou has to tell you something. You should find another partner for this competition. I might not be able to go this time."

"Why, Brother Lou, didn't you start planning it a few months ago? How come it's just the last minute and you can't go?"

"Something went wrong. The few people I'm looking for here may not be able to participate in this performance."

Hearing this, the person on the other side smiled carelessly, "What did I think? It's okay. I'll just contact the person again. You don't have to worry about this."

Lou Huowang's expression relaxed, "This... I really don't know what to say. Come here quickly and I'll ask your sister-in-law to bake some steamed buns for you!"

After saying that, he hung up the phone, looked at the night sky, and breathed a sigh of relief.

The world of competition is extremely dangerous, and it would be really difficult to handle it if there was only one person.

……

Night, Tianwangshan City.

"Okay, let's stop here."

A cold female voice sounded from the back seat of the taxi.

The driver looked up at the rearview mirror. The passenger was tightly wrapped, wearing a long black down jacket, a mask and sunglasses.

The woman put the fare on the seat, got out of the car and left.

As the driver watched her go away, he began to feel scared. In the past few days, Tianwangshan City had simply become a city of terror.

The group of lunatics who emerged from the sewers almost killed everyone they saw.

The city's police force was completely unable to resist them. In the end, it was the actors who took action to calm down the turmoil.

Nowadays, almost all the citizens in the city are suffering from stress-trauma syndrome. When they see such mysterious people, they will worry that they will take out a knife and slash them in the next second.

The driver hurriedly drove away, but after the woman got out of the car, she turned into a quiet alley and turned around. She obviously still had a long way to go.

This is a dirty slum, where gangsters huddle in tight alleys and smoke.

The red cigarette butts were like tiny eyes, flickering on and off, looking at the woman.

Although she was wearing heavy clothes, she could not hide her tall figure, and she must have exquisite curves under her clothes.

At first, it was just watching, but the deeper she went, the more chaotic she became. Some people started whistling at her, and some people started gearing up to lift her mask and see what kind of face was hidden underneath.

"Beauty, this is not the place you should be. Leave as soon as possible."

A man with dyed white hair and a crew cut walked out of the crowd and stood in front of the woman.

The woman looked forward through her sunglasses. The exit of the alley led to a residential area with low houses.

Facing the eager gangsters, the woman seemed very calm.

Without saying anything, she first took out a handwritten gray business card from her pocket, then took out her mobile phone and dialed the number on it.

Jingle Bell--

A crisp ringtone rang in the white-haired man's pants pocket. He took out his phone, and the screen lit up to illuminate his scar-covered face.

After he hung up the phone, the woman shook her phone at him and said calmly: "It seems that you stuffed the business card into the crack of my door. Why, now that the guests are here, you are driving them away?"

The crew-cut man thought for a moment, nodded and said, "In that case, please come with me."

The two walked out of the alley, one behind the other, under the watchful eyes of everyone.

As soon as the woman entered the chaotic residential area, the world in front of her suddenly changed like a mirage, and all the buildings fell into chaos like TV snowflakes.The white-haired man led the way without saying a word, and the woman suddenly said: "You God Revival Society are really tenacious. Even though Chiguodian and the committee jointly attacked you, they were not completely eliminated."

The white-haired man sneered: "The Overthrowing God Society is like weeds, the seeds have been sown. The so-called blow to us will only make us stronger... You are very wise and chose to come to us. The future Chiguo will definitely be The world of Fushenhui."

As he spoke, a magnificent palace appeared not far in front of the two of them.

"Go ahead, we're here."

The woman took a deep breath and slowly stepped forward. The door blocking her was almost five to sixty meters high. She didn't know if it was an illusion or reality.

She pressed her hands on the door, expecting it to take a lot of effort, but to her surprise, the door opened on its own to the left and right.

As the crack in the door opened like an abyss, dense figures were reflected on her sunglasses.

Behind the door is a vast hall.

I don't know if there are thousands or tens of thousands of people, but they are all sitting on futons at this moment, chanting sutras devoutly around a lotus platform.

As if sensing that there was an uninvited guest, everyone turned around cautiously and looked at the woman with ferocious eyes.

She took two steps back, her calm heart suddenly beating hard.

The woman was not afraid, just shocked. She saw many familiar faces among these people.

There are rich people, famous people, and high-ranking people in the committee... these people have actually joined the God-Restoring Society?
Suddenly, a neutral voice sounded from the empty golden lotus platform, "Everyone, please don't be nervous, she will be our new partner."

Almost at the same second, all the cold faces raised the corners of their mouths to the same extent, and their expressions softened.

This scene is indescribably weird.

"Please come in, come to me."

The woman felt that a pair of penetrating eyes on the lotus table began to look at her, and all her secrets could not be concealed.

She walked to the lotus platform facing the eyes of everyone present, and the voice said again: "Why do you come here?"

The woman has begun to think about quitting, but there seems to be an abnormal magic power on the lotus platform, which makes her unable to move.

"Because... the business card says that you can make any wish come true."

"Indeed, what is your wish?"

"I, I want to be a performer!"

Perhaps because she felt that her idea was too whimsical, the woman couldn't help but raise her voice a little higher when she said this.

Unexpectedly, waves of contemptuous laughter erupted from the crowd, mocking her for being too ordinary.

The neutral voice replied: "Okay, after you become the most devout believer in the Society of God Restoration, this wish will naturally come true."

Before he finished speaking, a subtle golden light suddenly penetrated the woman's eyebrows.

"what is this!"

The woman suddenly became alert and began to back away.

"Don't be nervous, it's just a small gift. This gift can help you maintain your youth for 100 years... If you want to be an actor, don't you also want to stay young forever?"

"I……"

The woman was speechless, her shock was beyond words.

The other party really saw through what he was thinking.

……

On the opposite side of Chiguo, among the mustard seeds, a huge office building stands tall.

People are coming and going in the corridors, and every office is in full swing, and these office workers all have the same face - Zhang Defu.

"Okay, okay, I understand. When Mr. Chen Yan comes back, I will definitely pass on the news."

In the CEO's room, Zhang Defu, wearing a suit and leather tie, was sitting on a large office chair, looking irritable as he dealt with the continuous incoming calls.

"Hey, hello...are you looking for Mr. Chen Yan? He hasn't come back yet. I really didn't lie to you. Okay, I will be the first to contact you when he comes back. I can't let you go, don't worry."

After saying that, Zhang Defu turned his chair, turned his body for a week, looked at the man who suddenly appeared in the office, and complained: "Isn't it strange that I received hundreds of messages this day, all of them looking for you?" Yes. Sir, what exactly did you do in the novel? Did you offend someone?"

Having said this, he suddenly froze and quickly shrank.

Zhang Defu hurriedly jumped down from his chair and bowed: "Damn it, I didn't realize you were back. Please sit down!"

The man standing in front of him was Chen Yan, who had returned from the world of romance.

Chen Yan looked around the office and joked: "Okay, Defu, I haven't seen you for a few days and you are now the boss."

"You are making fun of Xiaguan. Xiaguan is just a customer service person at best. Please sit down."

"Sit down by yourself." Chen Yan stretched his muscles and asked, "Did you just say that hundreds of people were looking for me?"

"Yes!" Zhang Defu's face was full of bitterness, "Just now, my ears were almost blown by the sound transmission, and I was asked to inform them when you come back. Sir, don't worry, I will definitely tell you about your involvement in Jiezi You hid it to death!"

"Okay, you did a good job."

Chen Yan heard this and thought to himself that these people were probably the opponents he met in London.

The reason why I am looking for myself is probably because I want to win over myself as a teammate in the next competition world.

But he had already agreed with Lou Huowang to participate in this drama together, so he could not ignore these invitations.

"Let's rest for ten days and a half before we talk."

"It's natural. I will help you arrange a place right away." Zhang Defu just agreed with a smile, then suddenly thought of something and reminded: "My lord, aren't you preparing to participate in the next competition world?"

"Okay, what's wrong?"

"Then you won't be able to rest for these ten days and a half, because there are only ten days left before the competition opens!"

"Ten days?"

Chen Yan was startled for a moment. He clearly remembered that before he entered the drama this time, he was still away from the competition world for more than two months.

"Yes, you stayed in the world of romance for a full fifty days this time!"

Chen Yan quickly came to his senses. The chaos in London was more serious than he thought.

There are only ten days left, and the time is very tight. Reasonable planning must be made every day.

The unfamiliar team needs to get used to, and the newly acquired abilities need to be sorted out.

Also, Jiang Qian had to go.

[Dear God Actor, your ending has been written. After Xumi completes the rating, the rewards for this episode will be settled and purchase rights will be opened]

[Dear performer, your divine grant has been drawn. This time, the divine grant "1" was drawn. Please open your personal boundaries and check your inheritance]

Chen Yan looked at the prompts that appeared in front of his eyes and murmured: "The two forms of good and evil..."
