When Zhou Wen heard this voice, his body trembled. He was pleasantly surprised. Just as he was about to stand up and turn to look at him, he heard him say, "Just sit there and don't move."
"Zhong Ziya, where have you been all this time? Why are you here?" Zhou Wen asked in a low voice. He could tell that the voice belonged to Zhong Ziya.
He knew that Zhong Ziya's situation might be worse than his. At the very least, the bureau wouldn't dare openly capture him and Hui Haifeng, but they weren't that polite to Zhong Ziya and Jiang Yan.
"I'm walking around and taking the bunch of dogs from the bureau out for a stroll." Zhong Ziya leaned against Zhou Wen and said in a relaxed tone, "As for you, the speed at which you grow is really surprising. You were the one who killed Medusa, right?"
"That was an accident." Zhou Wen paused and said, "I got the thing you left behind. It's on me now. I'll give it to you."
"There's no need. That was a souvenir I left for you," Zhong Ziya said lazily.
"Did Teacher use that method?" Zhou Wen asked after a moment of silence.
"Who knows?" Zhong Ziya curled his lips and said, "Even if you know what method was used, what's the point?"
Zhou Wen thought that it made sense and was momentarily at a loss for words.
"Did Medusa drop a Companion Egg?" Zhong Ziya asked.
"No, there was only one Essence Energy Skill Crystal," Zhou Wen answered truthfully. Although the two of them hadn't spent much time together, perhaps because they were both Wang Mingyuan's students and were in the same situation, or perhaps because of some other reason, Zhou Wen had a nagging feeling that Zhong Ziya was different from others. If it wasn't necessary, he wasn't willing to be perfunctory with Zhong Ziya.
"Lend me the Medusa Crystal. Pass it to me from the left. The surveillance cameras can't capture it," Zhong Ziya said.
"What do you want it for?" Zhou Wen said as he took out the Medusa Crystal and handed it to Zhong Ziya.
He had seen the requirements of the Medusa Crystal. Zhou Wen couldn't meet the requirements of 41 Constitution and 21 Curse stats.
In addition, there were the requirements for Life Providences and Life Souls. Zhou Wen didn't know if his Life Providences and Life Souls had any effects, so he couldn't be sure.
However, just the stat requirement was enough to prevent him from using Medusa Crystals for the time being. Furthermore, if there was a need, he could head to the Curse Demon Palace to grind Medusa again.
"I need it to do something. Don't ask me what it is, I don't want to say." Zhong Ziya took the dimensional crystal and after a while, he touched Zhou Wen's hand and said, "This is for you. Treat it as interest."
Zhou Wen took it and saw that it was a box. Just as he was about to open it, he heard Zhong Ziya say, "Don't look at it now. Find a place without anyone to look at it."
Zhou Wen was about to say something when Zhong Ziya stood up. "I hope I'll still be me the next time we meet."
With that said, Zhong Ziya walked out of the hall while Zhou Wen sat there motionlessly.
It was not difficult to turn back, but it was difficult to meet again.
When An Sheng returned, Zhong Ziya had already disappeared into the crowd outside. If it wasn't for the box in his hand, Zhou Wen would have suspected that what had just happened had really happened.
The scene of Wang Mingyuan cooking for the four of them and playing cards with them felt like it had happened yesterday. However, today, they couldn't even look each other in the eye when they sat down to talk.
"This darn world," Zhou Wen cursed softly as though he was venting some emotions in his heart.
Lucas said that he wanted to send them off, but Zhou Wen told him that there was no need. The reason An Sheng didn't get Zhou Wen to inform him in advance was because he didn't want him to send them off. He didn't want anyone to connect the person in the photo to Zhou Wen.
An Sheng sent Zhou Wen all the way back to school. From the looks of it, he definitely wouldn't allow any accidents to happen to Zhou Wen.
In fact, Zhou Wen didn't have the energy to cause trouble. His injuries had worsened, so he really didn't want to move.
After returning to his dorm, he lay down on the bed and quickly fell asleep. When he woke up, it was already noon.
He still didn't feel hungry, so Zhou Wen didn't eat. Thinking of the box Zhong Ziya had given him, he took it out of the Chaos Bead and opened it.
There's nothing? Zhou Wen couldn't help but be taken aback. The box was empty.
That's not right! Zhou Wen quickly realized that the box wasn't empty. As the box was made of paper, it was very light. However, Zhou Wen could feel that the box was rather heavy, as though there was a piece of metal inside.
Could it be … Zhou Wen thought of something and reached his hand into the box. Inside the empty box, there seemed to be something blocking Zhou Wen's hand, preventing him from reaching his hand in.
When Zhou Wen's fingers touched it, he felt as though he had touched something cold. Furthermore, where his fingertips touched, space distorted visibly, as though a transparent plastic sheet had been wrinkled.
"No way!" Zhou Wen's expression turned odd. He took out his mysterious phone and shone it at the box. Immediately, a row of information appeared on the phone.
Invisibility Cloak: Mythical
Just looking at the top row of information, many thoughts flashed through Zhou Wen's mind as he understood many things.
The person who stole the Invisibility Cloak Companion Egg was Zhong Ziya? Zhou Wen carefully recalled and suddenly understood why he found the thief's photo somewhat familiar.
Now that he thought about it, the thief's looks and even his figure were different from Zhong Ziya's. However, his eyes had Zhong Ziya's unique temperament.
Zhong Ziya didn't steal the Invisibility Cloak because he was trapped in the Curse Demon Palace. Instead, he stole the Invisibility Cloak to deal with Medusa's Eyes of Petrification, right? Zhou Wen gradually pondered over the cause and effect of the matter.
Clearly, Zhong Ziya hadn't been able to incubate the Invisibility Cloak, so he hadn't been able to kill Medusa. However, he had used some unknown method to get Medusa out of the Curse Demon Palace.
With Zhou Wen's understanding of his character, Zhong Ziya definitely wanted to use the experts on the Peninsula of Gods to kill Medusa. As for how many people would die, Zhong Ziya probably didn't care.
In the end, Medusa was killed by Zhou Wen, which was why he had come to see Zhou Wen. Otherwise, Zhou Wen wouldn't have known that he was the one who had stolen the Invisibility Cloak. He probably wouldn't even know that he had been here.
Zhong Ziya, what are you doing? Zhou Wen was somewhat worried. Zhong Ziya's character was too extreme and he was extremely talented. If he really did evil, he might become a devil like Jing Daoxian.
Looking at the Invisibility Cloak Companion Egg in his hand, Zhou Wen's expression turned extremely complicated. He had originally gone to the Peninsula of Gods for the Invisibility Cloak, but he never expected that the Invisibility Cloak would land in his hands in such a manner.
