Chapter 1344: A Strange Hijacking
Cupid paid the waiter who was pretending to be him 800 yuan. Then, he was helped to sit down by Sage. After listening to Sage’s story of the whole afternoon, he began to tell his story.
It turned out that after Cupid received the news that his company had been invaded, he immediately booked a plane ticket back. Then, he received a message from sage, warning him that someone might attack him on the way, at this sensitive juncture, Cupid naturally wouldn’t be careless. He immediately became vigilant and bought all the seats in the first-class cabin.
As soon as he got on the plane, he told the stewardess that he needed to rest. He didn’t want to be disturbed by anyone, and he didn’t need any service. As a result, there was no one else by Cupid’s side the entire way, just when he thought that he could ensure his safety by doing so, and the plane was about to reach its destination, a sudden change occurred.
Cupid saw an oval-shaped flying object fly out from behind a cloud through the porthole of the plane. It first traveled with the plane for a short period of time, and then flew up to the top of the plane, it caused some passengers to cry out in surprise.
It couldn’t be helped. The appearance of this thing was too classic. The only thing missing was the word “UFO”carved on its face. Some people even saw two short and ugly little green men in the opposite cockpit. Cupid suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart. He immediately pulled down the sunshade, he was even prepared to change positions.
However, just as he stood up, a white light suddenly appeared above his head and enveloped him. Cupid could not help but swear. Before he could finish his words, his body disappeared from the cabin.
When he reappeared, he was already in the cage on the UFO. The two little green men outside the cage each held a spear with a defibrillator on the front and stabbed at Cupid’s body.
However, Cupid’s actions were even faster. In the next moment, a golden longbow appeared in his hand. Before the long spear reached into the cage, he had already shot down the two little green men. However, before he could find a way to break out of the cage.., then, his body was shrouded in white light again.
This time, he was teleported from the UFO to a warehouse. It was also there that Cupid encountered an ambush specifically targeted at him by the New Gods. Although in the end, Cupid successfully killed one of them.., however, he was also injured. Seeing that the remaining three had escaped, he was worried that there would be more ambushes, so he did not chase after them.
Cupid left the warehouse in a hurry. After that, he did not even dare to go directly to the hotel. Instead, he called meituan to run errands and sent a letter to his wife, Sage, asking her to come to this cafe.
After Cupid finished telling his story, Sage also carefully opened his shirt. When she saw the wound on Cupid’s lower abdomen, she could not help but cry.
It didn’t seem like any real weapon could do that. The wound was neat and round, about the size of a fist. The internal organs and flesh inside were gone. If Cupid wasn’t a god.., he would have died long ago.
And he was still able to fight his way out of the siege of the new gods with such a wound. He was indeed strong.
However, this was also his limit.
Cupid gestured for Sage to put down his clothes before he spoke, “The war between the new gods and the Old Gods has already begun. As a member of the Old Gods, I should have gone to help. However, neither of us are like Thor or Ares who enjoy fighting. Furthermore, with the injuries on my body, even if I wanted to fight, I wouldn’t be able to.”
At this point, he patted sage on the shoulder, “Don’t worry, I won’t die yet. However, it won’t be easy to cure me. Therefore, I plan to find a place that no one knows about and live in seclusion for a period of time. I will first heal my injuries. When the time comes, I will see how far the war has progressed before I make any plans.”
Sage wiped away the tears on her face and sobbed, “Alright, I will go home and pack my things now.”
Cupid shook his head. “No need, let’s just leave. I’m about to disband the company as well. I’ve already told little he to inform the personnel about the severance payment.”
“Alright, I’ll do as you say.”
Cupid looked at Zhang Heng again. “You saved my wife, so I can’t be ungrateful to you. Give me your hand.”
Hearing that, Zhang Heng extended his left hand. Cupid then used one of his fingers to dip his own blood on Zhang Heng’s wrist to draw two small arrows. After that, he gasped, “I don’t have anything else to give you, so I’ll give you this pair of arrows. If you meet a girl you like, you can shoot her with a golden arrow. If you meet someone you want to break up with, you can use a lead arrow. Remember, this effect only works on the first person who sees the arrow after the target is hit. Each arrow can be used three times.”
Zhang Heng had heard a lot about Cupid’s arrow. The Golden Arrow and the lead arrow were the same as the legendary ones.
After Cupid delivered the arrows, Sage thanked Zhang Heng again for saving her life. Then, the couple asked the waiter at the coffee shop to call a taxi for them. They helped each other out of the door.
Zhang Heng saw Cupid’s body shrink bit by bit after leaving the house. Eventually, he turned into a three-year-old baby. Sage hugged him in her arms and fell asleep in front of his wife.
Zhang Heng and the other two’s car disappeared from their sight. They were about to leave, but then they saw Miss Succubus, who had been silent the whole time, still sitting in her seat. The latter looked at him, she changed her cool and indifferent look from before and said with a serious expression.
“We need to talk.”
“Okay.”Zhang Heng nodded. He stopped walking and sat down at the table again.
“I know who you are now.”
Miss Succubus’s first sentence was earth-shattering.
Zhang Heng’s expression did not change. “Yes, didn’t you already know my real name and address when we first met?”
“That’s not what I’m talking about. Recently, there have been rumors that Lalaiya is about to wake up from his city. Using a player as a container, he will return to land. and the player chosen to be the container is you, right?”
“Why do you say that?”
“The questions you asked Siji before were all related to how to resist the descent. Not long ago, Siji helped you resist a soul attack. She’s more simple-minded and may not think that much, but I’m not her. I know that this will prove that you asked those questions on your behalf.”
“That’s right.”Zhang Heng did not deny it anymore. “I brought you along because I wanted to find a way to resist the descent.”
“Not only that, you brought me along because you want to know how the organizing committee and the other gods treat you.”
“Indeed, this is also part of my consideration,”Zhang Heng admitted.
Saiji’s expression became complicated as she looked at Zhang Heng.
