Blood splattered, and the farthest drop landed at Wang Hao's feet. Wang Hao took a step back in shock.
However, when he looked up at the mysterious man in front of him, he was surprised to find that even though he was the closest to the site of the incident, the mysterious man and even the sofa that the mysterious man was sitting on were not stained with blood…
Recalling what the mysterious man had said just now, Wang Hao's heart couldn't help but thump…
"Did the disaster creature fail…?"
"No wonder that disaster creature became so strange."
"There must have been some unknown aberration in the creation process, right?"
Thinking about how the mysterious man in front of him could even create disaster creatures, Wang Hao couldn't help but feel even more excited…
"The person in front of me is indeed an unimaginable big shot…"
"Furthermore, if he can even create disaster creatures, then I'm sure it would be easy for him to help me become an Awakened, right?"
As he thought this, the hand of the mysterious man in front of him raised slightly. Then, Wang Hao realized that the blood before his eyes and on the ground was slowly disappearing.
If he hadn't seen that horrible disaster creature with his own eyes, he might have thought what he was seeing was just a dream.
He swallowed involuntarily, then stole a glance at the mysterious man.
He saw that the mysterious man simply sat there and did not speak.
Therefore, after hesitating for a moment, he mustered his courage and asked in a low voice, "Sir… May I ask if you are satisfied with my last story?"
"May I ask if you are satisfied?"
Upon hearing Wang Hao's words, Fang Ze was speechless.
After a moment, he leaned back and rested his hand on the arm of the sofa. He nodded slowly. "Not bad…"
Hearing the mysterious man's answer, Wang Hao was pleasantly surprised. He couldn't help but ask, "Then…"
He didn't finish the sentence, but Fang Ze knew what he meant.
Fang Ze couldn't help but think about this.
Originally, Fang Ze only wanted to test the abilities of this room and see if he could obtain any valuable "gains".
However, before he could see the "gains", the information shocked him.
Furthermore, now that he suddenly realized that he was in danger, Fang Ze was not as relaxed as before.
He began to wonder how the hell he was going to get through this.
At this point, Fang Ze couldn't help but look at his roommate.
Perhaps… His roommate and this Late-Night Investigation Room would be the key to solving this dilemma.
Thinking of this, Fang Ze hesitated for another moment, then made up his mind.
He tapped his hand lightly on the arm of the sofa, then spoke slowly in his mysterious, low, husky voice. "That last story of yours was certainly not bad."
"It's still incomplete…"
"Incomplete?" Wang Hao hesitated slightly.
The "mysterious man" Fang Ze nodded.
Then, he said in a guiding tone, "You only know that your roommate is a member of a criminal organization, but… you don't know what organization they are from, and what your roommate is in that organization."
"You only know that the organization wiped out the wealthy businessman, but the reason for doing so is not clear."
"All you know is that members of that group were attacked during the retreat, but not by whom."
"Besides, from what you've told me, this case of yours hasn't been solved. The final outcome of the roommate hasn't been determined."
"This story doesn't have any cause or consequence…"
At this point, he crossed his arms over his abdomen and slowly evaluated, "An item that can Awaken a person won't be so cheap…"
Upon hearing the mysterious man's words, Wang Hao couldn't help but ask, "Then… if I finish the story, can I get the item that will help me to awaken my abilities?"
The "mysterious man" seemed to weigh the value of both clauses. After a moment, he nodded slightly. "Sure."
With just one word, Wang Hao was instantly filled with fighting spirit!
He said, "In that case, please give me time! I will definitely investigate all of this and tell you the full story!"
The mystery man smiled at his words, then said calmly, "All right."
Seeing that the matter was settled, Wang Hao asked again, "Sir, may I ask how I can contact you after my story has progressed?"
Upon hearing his words, the mysterious man smiled mysteriously. "Don't worry…"
Then, he spoke slowly in his hoarse, mysterious, and deep voice.
"You don't need to contact me."
"Because I will always… watch over you…"
As he listened to the mystery man, Wang Hao suddenly felt his eyelids grow heavier and heavier.
He tried to resist, but his resistance seemed to be a little too weak compared to this sleepiness.
In less than a second, he fell into a deep sleep…
Fang Ze sat on the sofa for a long time as he watched his roommate fade away and disappear.
After what seemed an eternity, he took a deep breath. Then, he got up and went to the bookshelf. He turned it over, revealing the battered lamp behind it.
There was a click as he turned off the lamp.
With the lamp turned off, the entire marble floor, the carved walls, the world-famous paintings, and the expensive art all dissipated like bubbles.
In a moment, the entire luxurious room returned to its original dim and simple appearance.
In the middle of the room were two simple tables and chairs. On the table near Fang Ze was a pale pink book-like object.
"Is that what this investigation has yielded?"
Seeing the book-like item, Fang Ze, who was filled with negative emotions, couldn't help but feel a little excited.
"Is it some kind of relic with extraordinary powers?"
"Is it a secret manual that records the methods of awakening?"
"Does it contain some key information?"
"Can it solve my current crisis?"
With these thoughts, Fang Ze quickly put the lamp on the table and picked up the book.
With a bang, Fang Ze slammed the book to the floor.
The title of the book was, "Magnificent Nightlife: The Golden Rooster List of the Red Light District in June."
Realizing that his "gains" this time were too useless, the exasperated Fang Ze planned to leave the Late-Night Investigation Room and go back to sleep.
However, at that moment, he suddenly froze and exclaimed softly.
This was because he realized that after the book fell, a short passage of information appeared in his mind. It was about the book on the floor.
"The Salty Magazine?"
"A disposable relic?"
"After reading this Magazine seriously, when I open it again, I will receive a 1.5-hour special status bonus called 'Sage'."
"In the 'Sage' state, the user will lose his emotions and be in an absolutely calm state. Although it won't increase his intelligence, he can execute his plan more perfectly and… make people more convinced and close to him?"
After sorting out the information in his mind, Fang Ze was a little surprised.
The magazine in front of him was actually a precious artifact called the [Salty Magazine].
It was a one-time use item.
However, it was also an extraordinary item after all. This was the first time Fang Ze had come into contact with such a magical power.
As for the effect… It was nothing special, right?
However, Fang Ze felt that it was just right to test it out. It wouldn't hurt.
It occurred to him that the way to use it was to read it first. Thus, Fang Ze picked up the Magazine from the floor, then sat down in a chair, flipped open the pages, and began to read…
Looking at the coquettish women wearing very little clothes on the pages, to be honest, Fang Ze could not calm down.
This was because he had never expected that he would be forced to read such a magazine for the first time in his two lifetimes…
It was supposed to be a pleasant thing, but it turned out to be so perverted!
It completely put him out of the mood!
"Hiss. Are their waists so flexible?"
"Damn. This tongue can tie knots, eh?"
"Yo, yo, yo. There's actually a filly. I've learned something new."
"The material life of a high-leveled city is indeed rich!"
