Chapter 371: Chapter 340: Female Celebrity
“Thump thump~”
Upon hearing the knock, Old Coulson put down a book called “Guide to Secret Healing dicine” in his hands, pushed his glasses, and slowly stepped forward to open the oak door. Behind the lenses, the figures of Tang Qi and Jennifer imdiately reflected in his eyes.
“Tang Qi!”
“Jennifer!”
The old gentleman always dressed impeccably like a gentleman and seed very happy about Tang Qi’s visit.
However, rather than turning around and leaving after bringing Tang Qi over, Jennifer, sowhat shyly, asked if she could stay and listen in on the exchange between the two “polymaths” and vowed not to interrupt their conversation.
As a mber of the Ancient Castle Bureau, Old Coulson was very familiar with Jennifer and instantly saw through the female agent’s intentions, nodding with a smile.
As for Tang Qi, although he beca a “genius polymath” by cheating, he understood Jennifer’s desire for knowledge. And as sothing seed to cross his mind, he also nodded, allowing the golden-haired female agent with a respectable position at the Ancient Castle Bureau to remain.
Jennifer, having obtained her wish to stay, was excited as she busily prepared drinks and snacks for Tang Qi and Old Coulson.
At the sa ti, she strained her ears, listening to the conversation between two of the most learned scholars in Secret Phoenix City, perhaps aside from Rafael.
Old Coulson’s primary profession was as a “Healer,” but he also dabbled as a polymath.
Tang Qi, on the other hand, was even more complex.
The last ti, at the banquet at Dragon Heart Castle, things were too hurried and they did not have much chance to converse.
This ti, without any rush, both approached with an attitude of seeking advice and learning, striking up a conversation within the intricate laboratory.
Old Coulson leaned toward healing, so his problems were related to that field; he would even directly engage with the Crucible or other things, conducting relevant experints and raising so peculiar questions along the way.
If a fake polymath were here instead, their pretense would surely be exposed.
But Tang Qi was different. Once his special abilities were employed, he could always identify key errors in Old Coulson’s experints, helping him to complete so of the research for healing secret dicine.
At first, the old gentleman seed sowhat indifferent, but later he beca excited and even fervent.
If it weren’t for Tang Qi stopping him in ti, he probably would have pulled out a notebook, like a serious student, listening to Tang Qi and taking notes all the while. Jennifer, on the other hand, showed no intention to stop him and seed almost ready to pull out her own notebook as well.
Seeing the ti was right, Tang Qi also began to throw out so topics.
For instance, how he went from being a “Wild Creature” to the newly appointed principal of the Witch School.
The key change was his strength.
His connections with the witches or the mastery of mystical knowledge could explain it.
Only his strength was too much of a leap.
Tang Qi could choose to remain “concealed,” which would help maintain a sense of mystery.
But considering so factors, Tang Qi inadvertently revealed so things to Old Coulson and Jennifer.
lter Wizard, Chaga Fighting Technique, Secret dicine, other skills… Tang Qi ntioned none of these.
What he told them was the wizard sect he was now practicing.
Ralph Wizard!
Right there in that laboratory, Tang Qi let a brand-new wizard sect make its official debut.
He didn’t reveal what the witchcraft was, only letting them know that he had inherited the legacy of a genius but deranged wizard.
Dark Age or Age of Ignorance.
The birth of a new wizard sect was nothing new.
But in this epoch, it might well be the first.
Especially since the first practitioner was Tang Qi.
The Mysterious Side of Secret Phoenix State now recognized Tang Qi as the new Witch Principal and another genius strong person in the Extraordinary World. As long as no mishaps occurred, he would inevitably beco a big shot overseeing his domain at so point in the future.
In theory, as long as he does not fall and continues to grow stronger, the Ralph Wizard sect will gradually rise.
Both Old Coulson and Jennifer were wise. They quickly grasped so of the implications and ambitions in Tang Qi’s words.
“Tang Qi has made a breakthrough in Ralph Witchcraft!”
“Tang Qi wants to beco a legend!”
A similar thought arose in the hearts of them both.
Since the beginning of ancient epochs, a newly born profession could end up in two ways.
It could accompany a legend, Demigod, or even True God, becoming an exceedingly prosperous Extraordinary Profession.
Or, after so minor disturbances, it could disappear into the long river of history.
Tang Qi deliberately leaked the existence of the “Ralph Wizard” sect, obviously to achieve the forr outco.
For a mont, both the elder and the younger one were shocked by Tang Qi.
Seeing this, Tang Qi’s lips slightly curled up.
Goal achieved!
This was a spontaneous idea of his, to maintain mystery while almost entirely eliminating the possibility that people would think of him as a “lter Wizard.”
Transcendents cannot practice two wizard professions simultaneously, which was an accepted viewpoint of the Mysterious Side.
Of course, they were partially correct in their thinking; indeed, Tang Qi wanted to let Ralph Witchcraft shine in this era of constant change as it deserved to.
Ding-a-ling!
Suddenly, the telephone in the lab rang.
As Old Coulson went to answer the call, Jennifer’s expression suddenly shifted, as if she had received so information from a Curios on her person.
As Old Coulson hung up the phone, he exchanged a glance with Jennifer.
“Sothing happened on Jason’s end.”
Old Coulson first inford Tang Qi, then suddenly recalling the scene of their first eting, he added, “Would you like to join us? I believe you’d be interested.”
“Oh, sure!”
Upon hearing this, Tang Qi responded with a smile.
…
Outside William Castle, on the large lawn.
Accompanied by a burst of noise and a gust of wind, a helicopter descended from the sky. A group of people hurriedly disembarked, with Jason taking the lead. However, he was not alone; he held an unconscious woman in his arms and, with a look of urgency, dashed towards the main stronghold.
Following him were Rafael and a group of people who were clearly not Transcendents.
“They’re here!”
Inside the main stronghold, in a quiet room resembling a sick ward, Tang Qi and two others were looking through the glass at Jason and the group of people rushing towards this “Healing Room.”
Tang Qi glanced over them, his gaze lingering on the woman in Jason’s arms.
There was still a hint of a smile on his face.
He had just been briefed by Jennifer about the reason: Jason and Rafael were indeed on a mission, but essentially, it was Jason’s private pursuit masked as public duty—he took advantage of his position for a bout of fan-following.
Rafael was rely dragged along for the ride.
Who would have thought?
A powerful Demon Hunter with the bloodline of a Tilos Monster, acting like any regular human chasing stars.
And the starlet Jason admired was currently held tightly in his arms.
Obviously, however, the state of this “Elizabeth” from Eagle’s Nest City, currently the Federation’s most glamorous leading actress, is very poor.
Jason, who always maintained his smile, now wore an expression full of concern and urgency.
Bang!
The door was thrust open, and Jason appeared, holding the woman.
“Coulson, quick, save…”
“Tang Qi!”
The last two words from Jason were filled with surprise. He and Old Coulson both rembered their first eting. Tang Qi, who appeared to be just an ordinary high school student, easily resolved the “Blood Magic” that Old Coulson was powerless against.
On his way here, he had decided to seek help from both the Church and Tang Qi if Old Coulson couldn’t handle it.
Although Old Coulson is currently the strongest “Healer” at the Ancient Castle Bureau, the success rate of Healers in the Extraordinary World is far from that of doctors in the real world.
Mysterious Event!
These four words are often associated with Death.
Once tainted, it sotis ant there was no salvation.
However, this ti, with Old Coulson, Rafael, and Tang Qi present, Jason felt that things would not get worse.
He hurried into the Healing Room and placed the actress on a white hospital bed.
At the sa ti, he quickly said, “Elizabeth ca to Secret Phoenix City to participate in a roadshow for the movie ‘Wilderness Fairy,’ the film she has put the most effort into since her acting debut. Adapted from a famous fantasy novel, her performance has hopes for a nomination…”
“Cough~ Cough cough”
Just as Jason, who had slipped into fan mode within a second, had yet to get to the point, Rafael, full of helplessness, reminded him.
Well aware of Jason’s behavior, Old Coulson had already bypassed him, starting an examination on the actress. But soon, the old man’s face turned grave.
Not only him, at this mont, anyone who wasn’t blind could see how eerie and… horrifying the state of this Elizabeth was.
Unquestionably, her usual appearance was stunning; her figure and face were impeccable, and she possessed a unique aura that made people feel a desire to draw closer. Coupled with Jason’s description, she was also a talented actress.
All these factors combined, it seed she was destined to captivate thousands.
But at this mont, most normal people seeing her would not help but scream.
Her nearly perfect body was thinning bit by bit as if an invisible force was devouring her vitality. Her body hair fell out in an instant, and golden scales started appearing on her pale skin…
A very primal, pure malice was surging like a tide.
“She’s turning into a monster!”
The sa thought erged in the minds of everyone in the Healing Room.
Fortunately, aside from the actress’s trusted team who followed Jason—agents, bodyguards, and the like—there were no other ordinary humans. These people, too, were suppressing their screams, swallowed by fear for the sake of their careers and fate.
“There’s sothing inside her devouring her life force and transforming her into another creature. Strangely enough, that thing seems to be completely integrated with her. There’s no way to separate them in a short period.”
“But at the rate of transformation, it won’t take long before she turns into another creature, and predicting her life or death will be difficult.”
“How could this state arise? Even if it’s a parasite or a curse, it shouldn’t be so seamlessly integrated, right?”
Old Coulson’s snowy eyebrows knitted tightly together, as if he had never encountered such a weird and tricky situation before.
As if by so tacit understanding, upon Old Coulson’s remark, Jason and the others, including Rafael with a frowning face, all turned their gaze towards Tang Qi.
Suddenly under so many scrutinizing eyes, Tang Qi couldn’t help but reveal a bitter smile.
Then he looked at Jason and blurted out a sentence that almost made him explode.
“She’s actually… pregnant!”
“Boom”
Tang Qi’s last three words burrowed into Jason’s ears, rendering the Demon Hunter stunned on the spot.
