As Wang Ling's little cotton-padded jacket, Odd Zhuo was naturally well aware of how important this scapegoat task was. However, he felt that it would be very difficult to pin the blame on him this time. First of all, his movements were restricted to the command center, and secondly, even if he fought Human Devil, the difference in their battle strength was completely unequal. Human Devil was too strong … there was no way Odd Zhuo could deal with it on his own.
But Odd Zhuo, who was well versed in the law of being a scapegoat, was well aware that even if he hadn't done it, the blame could still fall on him in the end.
It was fine as long as he didn't admit that he hadn't done it …
Under Old Huang and President Qi's gazes, Odd Zhuo did his best to maintain a calm expression. A few minutes later, there was news from the Mahjong Team. When the screen switched to the scene, Odd Zhuo suddenly saw a figure with green hair …
"This is?" Headmaster Chen felt that the image on the screen was a little familiar, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
That was right … this was the first time that Loopy Toad's human form had appeared in public. No one would have thought that the green-furred akita from a few months ago would actually cultivate into a human form in a short period of time.
Odd Zhuo remembered that Loopy Toad and Little Silver were supposed to act together, but Loopy Toad was the only one here, which was probably to protect Little Silver's "holy beast" identity.
"Who is this?" There was a vigilant look in Old Huang's eyes.
On the other side, Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal immediately got in touch with President Qi. "It's Mr Chong Erhe, a member of the Office of Strategic Deception's goon team."
"Mr Chong Erhe?" Old Huang was lost in thought. He didn't remember this name on the list he had seen two days ago.
President Qi secretly explained to Huang Feng telepathically, "It's like this, Old Huang. In fact, there is a hidden list among the entourage this time, which was personally appointed by the head of state. Even we don't know about this list; only the head of state knows about it. The goal is to prevent the real list from being stolen, and the head of state is on guard against the members on our list. And the purpose of this invisible list is to catch them off guard … "
Huang Feng nodded and instantly understood. "As expected of the head of state, to actually be so far-sighted."
In fact, he had wanted to pursue the matter … But since it was a hidden member personally appointed by the head of state, there was nothing he could do.
"But what is the background of this Mr. Chong Erhe?"
"He's one of the Office of Strategic Deception's experts, and has the strength of an Itinerant Immortal. Furthermore, the opponent's cultivation technique has a powerful restraining effect on evil spirits, so he was able to eliminate the Human Devil when he was caught off guard. "
"I see."
At this point, Old Huang felt that he finally understood the whole story, and he thanked Loopy Toad on the screen. "Thank you, Mr Chong Erhe, for helping out this time! If it weren't for you, Sir, and the demon continued to wreak havoc, I'm afraid that the entire Nine Dragon Mountain would've suffered irreversible damage. "
Worm Two Combination was Loopy Toad's alias in its human form; it was in fact a side radical that had been dismantled and reassembled.
Loopy Toad was well aware that very few people knew about its human form.
Having an alias also helped to hide one's identity.
Furthermore, Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal had already helped him get his ID card ready …
Now he was a dog with a proper identity! Furthermore, his household registration was in Songhai city! These days, many people ran around for the sake of a household registration. Now, even a dog like him could have a household registration!
Originally, he could only use the identity of a dog to silently contribute to the human race.
This could be considered Loopy Toad's first time coming out from behind the scenes.
It couldn't help feeling a little excited. "Old Huang, you flatter me. The truth is that I'm not the only one to take credit for this."
When Loopy Toad said this, the atmosphere in the command center instantly froze. Odd Zhuo raised his head in astonishment … As a scapegoat who fought on the frontline all year round, he suddenly sensed the subtlety in Loopy Toad's words.
"It was Director Zhuo. He was the one who arranged everything," Loopy Toad said at that moment.
He gave an answer that everyone did not expect, but it was within reason …
The expressions on the faces of everyone in the command center flickered, and countless headmasters turned their gazes to two people.
One was No. 60 High School's Headmaster Chen.
The other was naturally Odd Zhuo.
Director Zhuo …
How many people in the world could represent this familiar title?
Headmaster Chen, on the other hand, had a calm expression on his face at this point. Odd Zhuo's future was limitless, which was also a boost to No. 60 High School's morale. When No. 60 High School was renovated and rebuilt, the original old stone statue at the school gate would be remodeled into a life-size portrait of Odd Zhuo.
It was also a great blessing for No. 60 High School to have produced such a student. As the current headmaster of No. 60 High School, it was impossible for Headmaster Chen not to publicize it.
Under everyone's gazes, Headmaster Chen could only shrug his shoulders with an indifferent attitude. "Everyone, thank you for letting me win. Our No. 60 High School students have always been outstanding."
When he said this, the group of headmasters immediately felt sour in their hearts.
It sounded very shameless …
But they couldn't find any reason to refute it.
As the person in question, Odd Zhuo clearly had a vexed expression on his face …
He knew that things would turn out like this in the end!
…
On the other side, as Fire Peak's mountain spirit fell silent once more, the siege around Fire Peak resumed.
It was just that this time, no one dared to use the Spirit Summoning Spell in battle.
The high schools at the bottom decided to fight to the death, and gathered all the strength of the four high schools to launch a general attack on the top of the mountain. No matter how many people they lost, they would swallow No. 60 High School first!
"The general attack is starting from below."
According to the strategy they had decided on at the beginning, No. 60 High School would still focus on defense. Even in the face of the attack from the four high schools, everyone was still full of confidence. However, one person clearly felt that something wasn't right.
That person was Xia Ming.
Xia Ming felt that he already clearly understood what it felt like to possess great power …
It was certainly a good thing to have power, but if he couldn't control this power and it would eventually hurt the person he liked … Xia Ming felt that he might as well not have this power. When he saw Fire Peak's mountain spirit's giant hand stretch out from the ground, Xia Ming was stupefied; he didn't want to believe that he had single-handedly created this scene.
Although the mountain spirit had already fallen asleep again, Xia Ming no longer had the courage to use his power.
He was afraid that he would lose control of it again …
Amid his nervousness, Xia Ming felt a warm hand suddenly press down on his shoulder.
Who was it?
He turned his head slightly, and was surprised to find that it was Wang Ling standing behind him …
