Cupid paid the waiter who pretended to be him 800 yuan, then sat down with Sai Ji's help. After listening to Sai Ji's experience that afternoon, Cupid began to tell his story.
It turned out that Cupid booked a ticket back as soon as he received the news that his company was hacked. After that, he received a message from Sai Ji, warning him that someone might attack him on the way. At such a sensitive juncture, Cupid certainly wouldn't be careless. He immediately became vigilant and bought all the first-class seats.
As soon as he boarded the plane, he told the stewardess that he wanted to rest. He didn't want anyone to disturb him, and he didn't need any service. As a result, there was no one else around Cupid for the rest of the journey. Just when he thought that would ensure his safety, and the plane was about to arrive at its destination, something unexpected happened.
Cupid saw an oval-shaped flying object flying out from behind a cloud through the plane's porthole. It flew alongside the plane for a short while before flying above the plane, causing some passengers to scream.
It couldn't be helped. This thing was too classic. The word 'UFO' was carved on its face. Some people even saw two short, ugly little green men in the opposite cockpit. Cupid suddenly had an ominous premonition. He immediately pulled down the sunshade and was about to change his seat.
However, as soon as he stood up, a white light suddenly appeared above his head and enveloped him. Cupid could not help but curse. Before he could finish his sentence, his body disappeared into thin air from the cabin.
When he reappeared, he was already in the cage on the UFO. Outside the cage, two little green men each held a spear with a taser attached to the front, stabbing Cupid's body.
However, Cupid moved faster. The next moment, a golden longbow appeared in his hand, and he shot the two little green men before the spear reached the cage. Before he could find a way to break out of the cage, his body was enveloped by the white light again.
This time, he was teleported from the UFO to a warehouse, where Cupid was ambushed by the new gods. Although Cupid successfully killed one of them in the end, he was injured. Seeing that the remaining three escaped, he was worried that there would be more ambushes later, so he didn't chase after them.
Cupid left the warehouse in a hurry. After that, he didn't even dare to go to the hotel directly. Instead, he called a Meituan runner to send a letter to his wife, Sai Ji, and asked her to come to this cafe.
After Cupid finished telling his story, Sai Ji carefully lifted his shirt. When she saw the wound on Cupid's lower abdomen, she couldn't help but cry.
The wound did not look like it could be caused by any real weapon. The shape of 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 a long time ago.
However, he was still able to fight his way out of the encirclement of several New Gods with such a wound. He was indeed strong.
But this was also his limit.
Cupid motioned for Sai Ji to put down his shirt, and then said, "The war between the new gods and the old gods has begun. As one of the old gods, I should go and help. However, neither of us likes to fight like Thor or Ares. Besides, I'm injured now. Even if I want to fight, I can't."
Having said that, he patted Sai Ji on the shoulder. "Don't worry. I won't die yet, but it won't be easy to cure my injuries. So, I plan to find a place where no one knows where and live in seclusion for a while. I want to heal my injuries first. When the time comes, I'll decide what to do next."
Sai Ji wiped the tears off her face and choked with sobs. "Okay, I'll go home and pack my things now."
Cupid shook his head when he heard what she said. "No need. Let's go. I'm going to disband the company. I've already told Xiao He to inform the personnel to give me the severance pay."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Cupid looked at Zhang Heng again. "You saved my wife. I can't not thank you. Give me your hand." Zhang Heng stretched out his left hand.
Cupid dipped his finger in his blood and drew two small arrows on Zhang Heng's wrist. He then panted and said, "I don't have anything else to give you. 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, you can use a lead arrow. Remember, this effect only works on the first person you see after the arrow is shot. You can use each arrow three times."
Cupid's Arrow. Zhang Heng had heard a lot about it. The Love Golden Arrow and the Separation Lead Arrow had the same effect as the legend said.
After Cupid gave Zhang Heng the arrows, Sai Ji thanked Zhang Heng again for saving her life. After that, the couple asked the waiter in the cafe to call a taxi for them. After that, they helped each other to walk out of the door.
Zhang Heng saw with his own eyes that Cupid's body shrunk little by little after they walked out of the cafe. In the end, he looked like a three-year-old baby. Sai Ji held him in her arms and fell asleep in front of his wife.
Zhang Heng waited until the car disappeared from his sight. He was about to leave, but then he saw the succubus, who had been silent all this while, still sitting in her seat. The succubus looked at him, and the cool look on her face was gone, replaced by a serious look. "You're right.
"We have to talk."
"Okay." Zhang Heng nodded, stopped walking, and sat down at the table again.
"I know who you are."
Miss Succubus's first sentence was earth-shattering.
Zhang Heng's expression did not change. "Well, didn't you know my real name and address when we first met?"
"That's not what I'm talking about. Recently, there have been rumors saying that R 'yleh is about to awaken from its city. It will use a player as its vessel to return to the land, and the player chosen to be its vessel is you."
"Why do you say that?"
"The questions you asked Sai Ji were all related to how to resist the descent. Not long ago, Sai Ji helped you resist a soul attack. She is a simple girl, so she might not think too much. However, I'm not her. I know that means you asked those questions on behalf of yourself."
"That's right." Zhang Heng did not deny it anymore. "I brought you here to find a way to resist the descent."
"Not only that. You brought me here to know how the organizing committee and other gods treat you, right?"
"Indeed, that's one of my considerations," Zhang Heng admitted.
Sai Ji looked at Zhang Heng with a complicated expression.
