Facing an Ancient God for a Year-Chapter 374 - : The Prosthetic Eye (Part Seven)_1
Chapter 374: Chapter 374: The Prosthetic Eye (Part Seven)_1
It really is this guy!
Fu Qian confirmed his own guess as he looked at the flamboyant Roland.
Indeed, there was someone behind the scenes guiding Che Shunyong’s actions.
At first glance, Fu Qian was very certain that Roland was a Transcendent.
His strength appeared to be around that of a Sixth Phase, and the two moves he had shown just now suggested he had a wide range of techniques.
From Roland’s words, Fu Qian knew that Che Shunyong was completely passively accepting suggestions and had no idea of his existence.
“Are you trying to say that you deliberately let me see those things?”
After a long silence, Fu Qian finally spoke.
“Good, it seems you catch on quickly.”
Roland seemed very pleased with Fu Qian’s reaction.
“I’ve encountered some very stubborn fellows, who refuse to accept reality under any circumstances and attribute everything to a flash of inspiration.”
“To the point where I had to make one of them dig out his own eyeball right in front of me…”
“You mean I’m not the only one, but rather a part of some kind of experiment?”
Roland’s description was undoubtedly horrifying, and it took Fu Qian a few seconds to digest it before he asked.
“Experiment? That term is somewhat appropriate.”
Roland chuckled again, indicating that he found Fu Qian’s choice of words quite interesting.
“You are certainly not the only one, but it’s not that simple to become an experiment. It requires quite a bit of luck.”
“So you can still consider yourself to be uniquely gifted.”
“Honestly, your performance has surprised me.”
Roland stared at Fu Qian’s face.
“At first, I didn’t think much of you and didn’t pay much attention. Unexpectedly, you ended up doing the best, proving that luck is indeed unpredictable.”
“Especially now that you’ve managed to maintain such a figure after receiving a real physical transformation, it’s quite an achievement.”
“So much so that I couldn’t help but want to come out and meet you in person, which is why we’re having this communication.”
“So you’ve come to ask me for a reward?”
Fu Qian deliberately made a hesitant expression.
“The money I can give you… isn’t much.”
“Money? Hahaha…”
Roland appeared to hear something amusing, losing all composure and laughing heartily.
“As I can see, you indeed don’t have much… Fortunately, I don’t need that stuff, hahaha…”
It took quite an effort for Roland to stop laughing.
“Not only that, but I will also take care of some troubles for you. You don’t have to worry about me wanting something from you.”
“You just need to understand that your luck is valuable, because it has amused me.”
“I’m here now to confirm something with you, are you interested in experiencing a fascinating world?”
“You are interesting, and I want to introduce you to my friends. I’m worried about how you’ll react on the spot if I don’t give you a heads-up.”
“Are they all like you?”
“Some are like me, some are not, but undoubtedly much different from them.”
Roland pointed to a group of people behind him, and then took out a small, exquisite envelope from his pocket and placed it on the table.
“You have plenty of time to think, if you decide to accept, follow the time and address on it to find me.”
“Welcome to a new world.”
After speaking that last sentence, half chant, half sigh, the man didn’t wait for Fu Qian’s reply, simply got up, and left.
…
More smoothly than I expected.
Fu Qian looked at the blue envelope in front of him, consciously struggled mentally for a while before he picked it up.
He was certain that Roland seemed to have left, but in reality, he was still secretly observing his actions.
After fondling the envelope in his hand for a while, Fu Qian finally “made up his mind” to open it, only to find an exquisite card inside.
The content on the card was brief, just a time and place, seemingly a special gathering.
The time was for tonight, it seems there was plenty of time allocated.
Fu Qian put the card back, stuffing it into his jacket pocket.
It had to be said, Roland might have been ostentatious just now, but he revealed quite a few valuable things.
Che Shunyong was not the only one subjected to psychological suggestion; it could almost be confirmed that the incident on the bus was related to him, or his “friends.”
And if memory served, the initial encounter with the two policemen was because of a strange death that had occurred nearby.
This place seems to be stirred up by a bunch of people!
Their motives for doing such things were certainly worth pondering.
Games of Superior Beings? Random fateful giveaways? Or some kind of gambling?
It’s still hard to judge at the moment, I have to go there to find out.
But one thing is certain, attending such a gathering would undoubtedly be a great opportunity to find the Inner Eye.
Speaking of which, since becoming a Transcendent, I haven’t had much contact with the Transcendent community.
The only ones I’ve dealt with a lot are a group of world policemen, the Night Watchmen.
…
“Stunning discovery, multiple missing persons found in an old office building; landlord commits suicide out of guilt”
Sitting in a cold drink shop and looking at the news headline, Fu Qian couldn’t help but click his tongue in admiration, understanding what Roland meant by taking care of some troubles for him.
Although the footage in the report was blurry, he still recognized the familiar office.
According to the report’s narrative, it had basically been determined that everything was the landlord’s perverse actions, who had now committed suicide out of guilt.
But with this coming out, it essentially gave the public an explanation.
It’s unlikely that there was no record at the Night Watchmen’s office, considering I didn’t clean the scene up that cleanly.
It’s just that the landlord is dead, lacking any leads.
Overall, the identity of Che Shunyong should not be too restricted in movement for now.
This also confirms that Roland, although claiming not to pay careful attention to Che Shunyong, knew his actions as if they were the back of his hand, otherwise he couldn’t have dealt with it so efficiently and cleanly.
Now it was time to find this guy and express some gratitude.
Fu Qian glanced outside the window, the sun was already setting.
Using extra time today, he wandered around and now found himself in a corner of the city.
He confirmed as the mission description mentioned, that this was a place full of historical aura, with ancient buildings and legendary stories everywhere.
He even bought a magazine and went through the recent paranormal events thoroughly, discovering that the rate of bizarre incidents in this place was quite high.

If it had been any other time, it would have been easy to regard it as old city anomalies or folk tales.
But combining it with the previous conversation with Roland, it was easy to discern the strange flavor here.
The Transcendent community in this place seemed to be more active than usual.
