Chapter 105 Turbid Shadow
The crow jumped onto the table and rubbed its wings.

"I must give you something good this time!"

open!

There was a flash of light.

A white, fluffy pillow appeared on the table.

【Name: High Quality Sleeping Pillow】

[Quality: Excellent]

[Special Effect: Using this pillow will give you extremely high sleep quality and shorten the required sleep time. It will also heal body injuries and restore energy to a small extent during sleep.]

【Note 1: You deserve high-quality sleep. 】

[Note 2: After this pillow was invented, capitalists all over the world were in ecstasy, which meant that they could further squeeze the sleep time of workers. So in less than three months, the daily sleep time of workers around the world was reduced to 4 hours.]

"It's a recovery item, not bad."

Zhou Yuan explained the pillow's ability, then cast an expectant look, "Now that the box is opened, can the peerless, stunning, radiant and charming Raven Goddess help me solve my puzzle?"

"Oh, what a sweet mouth."

The crow smiled happily and said, "Then I'll give you a little inside information."

Zhou Yuan quickly pricked up his ears.

The crow paused and said seriously, "It is an abnormal creature."

"Uh-huh."

"That anomalous creature is very evil."

"Uh-huh."

“It wants to do big things.”

"Uh-huh."

The crow spread its wings and said, "Okay, that's all. The deal is done. I'm leaving now. Bye."

"?"

Zhou Yuan looked on in confusion as the crow exploded into a ball of black mist and disappeared.

"No, this..."

He was stunned. What kind of inside information was this? Three or two sentences were useless. The only useful information was that it could confirm that the Cyberdemon was an "abnormal creature" rather than a Beyonder.

But if you think about it carefully, this sentence seems to be of no use. The boundary between abnormal creatures and extraordinary people is very vague. Abnormal creatures like Chen Guangxi can also be called extraordinary people.

All in all, none of the three sentences are useful.

Zhou Yuan was silent. Was it wrong for him to have expectations for such a goddess who liked to watch fun? Even if He knew everything, He probably wouldn't tell him.

Wait, or...

Zhou Yuan looked suspicious: "Goddess, you didn't see anything, did you?"

"Tsk."

Black fog surged, and Crow appeared on the table, very dissatisfied. "How could I not see this? Is there such an impious Chosen One as you? You actually doubt the power of your own God. If it were any other church, you would have been thrown into the pig cage long ago.

You can look into this yourself. I won’t tell you. If I tell you everything, it will be difficult for you to grow.”

After saying that, it exploded into a ball of black mist and disappeared.

Fine.

Zhou Yuan put away the [High-Quality Sleep Pillow] helplessly and decided to check it himself.

I can't find anything interesting, just don't worry...

·

It was already evening when Zhou Yuan returned home. He ordered a takeout and lazily lay on the sofa, browsing his phone.

News of a nuclear explosion in the Amazon rainforest has made international headlines and attracted worldwide attention.

Coincidentally, a team filming a documentary in the Amazon rainforest recorded the entire process of the nuclear explosion and posted the video online. So far, it has been viewed over 100 million times.

I clicked on the video, and it started with a scene of a tropical rainforest. The scenery was picturesque, but suddenly the screen shook violently, and several men and women screamed. The camera suddenly turned, and a heavy mushroom cloud slowly rose in the distance, followed by an overwhelming shock wave that swept over, causing the screen to shake...

The news stated that the filming crew was then taken to the nearest hospital by a rescue team for treatment. Apart from some external injuries, they were not seriously injured and were not exposed to radiation.

As for the cause of the nuclear explosion, netizens from various countries have different opinions. Some say that it was the nuclear weapons left over from World War III that were accidentally triggered - in a sense, this is true.

Some people say that it was done by extreme terrorists who deliberately destroyed the ecological environment.

Others said that the relevant authorities discovered a prehistoric monster similar to Godzilla in the Amazon rainforest. Because it was too dangerous, they decided to use nuclear weapons to kill it.

As the matter unfolded, there were more and more conspiracy theories on the Internet, some of which actually coincided with the truth of the matter - the "Umbrella Corporation" built a biological laboratory in the rainforest, federal agents went deep into it to investigate, and finally detonated a nuclear bomb to wipe out the laboratory and the zombie monsters inside.

Seeing that public opinion was showing signs of getting out of control, federal officials quickly jumped out to issue a statement, putting the blame on a notorious terrorist organization and announcing that they had dispatched troops to wipe out the terrorist organization.

Judging from the official statement and the deliberate manipulation of the hype, this matter will soon be forgotten.

As for the nuclear radiation in the Amazon rainforest, it would not be difficult to solve by asking a few high-level extraordinary people with suitable abilities to take action, and even the ecological environment could be restored to its original state.

Compared to allowing mold to contaminate the entire Amazon rainforest and dragging South America and even North America into the era of residential crisis, this result is obviously acceptable.

There was also heated discussion about this matter on the Super Forum, but there was still no real news.

West and Red Team Seven must have reported the situation to the organization behind them. If my guess is correct, Eternal Genes and Omega should have already started investigating "Bear Grylls" and "Cyber ​​Devil".

Just then, Zhou Yuan saw a missing person post.

[The Matrix is ​​looking for someone online. One of our members named Kevin is missing in Brazil. Please provide clues if you know the situation. If the situation is true, there will be a big reward.]

Kevin is missing, and The Matrix has indeed taken some action... Zhou Yuan clicked on the post, and his expression became more and more solemn the more he read it.

The post mentioned that Kevin inexplicably went to Brazil without any contact with the Matrix, bought a large number of props in an extraordinary black market, and then disappeared.

This... Kevin clearly said that this was a task assigned to him by The Matrix!
Zhou Yuan broke out in a cold sweat. Could it be that the mission was issued by a cyber-devil disguised as a high-ranking member of The Matrix?
Later, Kevin contacted the organization and asked for the villa information and operation funds. Were those things also given by the cyber devil?

Zhou Yuan felt a chill. Such an enemy was too terrifying. He could confuse information and make the fake look real. If he was careless, he might be kept in the dark until his death, just like Kevin.

However, after a careful analysis, he found that the cyber demon did not seem to be omnipresent and omnipotent on the Internet.

If it is really omnipotent, it can completely erase Kevin's whereabouts on the Internet and disguise itself as Kevin to send messages to the Matrix. There is no need to leave such obvious clues for the Matrix to discover.

These things are not difficult to think of. Since it didn't do so, it can only mean one thing - it can't do it.

It seems that the cyber demon is not as dangerous as imagined.

dong dong dong.

My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. The family bucket had arrived.

"Come out and eat together."

After getting the takeaway, Zhou Yuan called Fang Qing out.

A trickle of blood oozed out of his pores, flowing in large quantities and gathering into Fang Qing.

"You are the MVP this time, so I'll give you a chicken leg as a reward." Zhou Yuan stuffed the golden crispy fried chicken leg to Fang Qing.

If Fang Qing hadn't unlocked Kevin's storage ring, he would have been in real trouble this time, so it's okay to call him the best of the show.

"Only a chicken drumstick? You are such a shabby boss." Fang Qing complained mercilessly. "You have become a ghost, so it is useless to give you a bonus."

Zhou Yuan thought for a moment and said, "How about I take you to Happy Paradise for a bath and massage in two days so you can enjoy yourself?"

"…Is this the kind of bath I was thinking of?" Fang Qing's eyes turned strange.

"formal."

"That's fine."

Fang Qing took a bite of the steaming crispy chicken. Mm, fried food is delicious. Even her mood improved after taking a bite.

She then took two big sips of the ice cola and let out a long sigh, feeling even better.

A man and a ghost were watching the news in the living room with great relish.

Suddenly, Fang Qing thought of something: "Those Pokémon you caught also need to eat. Don't let them starve to death without paying attention."

"Well... that's easy."

There is feed for sale in the mall.

【Name：Universal feed】

[Quality: Ordinary]

[Special effects: Suitable for any living thing to eat, one bag weighs 100 kilograms.]

[Note: Cheap and affordable, large quantity, nutritionally balanced, delicious, why wouldn’t you choose it? ]

[Price: 100 Star Coins]

Zhou Yuan spent 200 star coins to buy 2 bags of feed, bringing his total to 12000 star coins.

200 kilograms of feed should be enough for the group of puppets to eat for a while.

"Don't forget there's a succubus inside," Fang Qing reminded.

The food that abnormal creatures like succubus need to eat is quite special.

Zhou Yuan felt a headache. Damn, I forgot about this.

"Get the succubus out first and see if she eats the feed."

"Oh."

Fang Qing moved her mind and a pool of blood appeared on the ground. The succubus with pink hair and wearing a hot bikini emerged from the blood, with a curvy figure, exuding an alluring feeling.

"You have to upgrade that spider lady. Once the puppet threads are broken, these puppets will lose their ability to move. This weakness is very fatal." Fang Qing maintained the passage to the sea of ​​blood and did not close it.

"Ah."

Zhou Yuan is also aware of this and has to find a way to evolve the Weaver.

He took out a bag of universal feed from his backpack, pointed at the small biscuits that looked like dog food and asked the succubus: "Do you want to eat this?"

——A puppet that is completely controlled can have consciousness and use its own abilities, but once the puppet's threads are broken, the puppet will shut down.

The succubus picked up a small cookie and put it into her mouth to chew. Although she swallowed it in the end, she still shook her head and showed a charming smile, staring at Zhou Yuan with fiery eyes: "These foods are useless. I can only eat... that."

Zhou Yuan's tongue is pressed against his cheek, and it will be a bit difficult to deal with him if he doesn't eat the feed.

"You don't want to go into battle yourself, do you?" Fang Qing raised her eyebrows.

"That's not necessary. I'm a pure love warrior and I won't take the bus." Zhou Yuan said righteously.

"In fact, it's okay not to have sex..." The succubus threw a wink and said, "You know."

"I'm mysophobic."

Soon Zhou Yuan had a solution and asked the succubus: "Can you absorb essence from a distance?"

The succubus nodded: "Our tribe believes in the [Goddess of Love and Charm], and we have received her blessing. As long as someone desires me and performs craftsmanship, I can collect a small amount of her essence."

"That'll be easy."

Zhou Yuan clapped his hands and announced in a shocking voice, "Go and debut as a welfare girl!"

Fang Qing: “…”

"Is this your approach?"

"What else? This is a great idea. It not only allows her to eat enough to practice, but also allows her to make some money. It's a win-win situation."

Zhou Yuan patted Fang Qing on the shoulder and said solemnly, "You are a reporter, so the job of taking pictures is left to you."

Fang Qing immediately got angry: "My photography skills are not for this!"

"They are all photography, there is no difference. Don't worry, work hard, and you will get the benefits."

"..." Fang Qing was speechless.

In the next few days, Zhou Yuan either stayed at home playing games or went out to have fun, and his life was very comfortable.

During this period of time, I have really experienced the joy of being a nouveau riche. I bought a Maserati and went out for a drive to show off whenever I had nothing to do. I would also often go to various high-end restaurants in Xinhu for meals, and order famous wines worth tens of thousands of yuan. Although I couldn't taste any of the flavors, I just wanted to live a life of luxury.

However, even though he had already paid off his loan and was living a life he could not even dream of, for some reason Zhou Yuan felt bored with his current life.

Fang Qing said that rich people all have luxury cars and beautiful women, but you don’t even touch those beauties who come to your door, and don’t even add them on WeChat. Without beautiful women and little brothers to flatter and praise you, of course you will find it boring.

Zhou Yuan thought about it and it seemed to be true, but he really had no interest in those women who came to his door. It was not because of impotence, but because he could not accept it psychologically.

how to say……

He just wants to find a partner who truly loves him.

·
Just as Zhou Yuan was driving his Maserati around, the phone in his pocket vibrated. It was a special message reminder.

He parked the car on the side of the road, took out his cell phone and looked at it with some surprise.

It was Chen Guangxi, who had been missing for many days. She sent a voice message.

"Lao Zhou, our mission here is over. Do you want to come to Xin Yue to play? I'll take you to see the world."

Xin Yue... Zhou Yuan thought about it and realized that he had never traveled to other places in his life - the mission did not count.

Now that the loan has been paid off and a new life has begun, it is indeed time to go somewhere else and see the world.

"Okay, I'll buy a plane ticket now."

"No need to go through so much trouble. Just go to the Control Bureau and apply for a transfer. You can transfer anywhere within Dongzhou."

"I know, but I want to fly."

Zhou Yuan looked up and saw a plane flying overhead in the clear blue sky. He murmured, "I've never been on a plane in my life. I have to experience it, right?"

He bought the nearest plane ticket and said hello to Ye Wan, but to his surprise, Ye Wan just had something to give him.

——It is a ball of dark matter that has just been exchanged from other organizations.

Dark matter is extremely rare. It took Ye Wan almost two months to get such a piece of it, which shows how precious it is.

This mass of dark matter is called - turbid shadow.
