Chapter 1303: 1303
“Death dream. I also heard about what happened at the auction. It was a prop of the god of sleep, Sophocles. Later, Loki’s agent cheated it out of the hands of the three major guilds, and then it fell into the hands of Seth. He seemed to have produced many replicas at one point, causing panic among the people.”
As a succubus that had lived for more than a thousand years, Jia Jia was not completely useless in fights. At least she was well-informed, otherwise, the succubi wouldn’t have gathered together to discuss whether or not they should withdraw from the beach pants’game point first.
Zhang Heng didn’t say anything after hearing her words. He just lowered his head and thought about something.
“Did they offend someone?”Miss Succubus asked. “Otherwise, why would they be cursed by Hyperion?”
“I don’t think so,”Zhang Heng said, “This is more like a safety net for them, to ensure that when their operation fails and falls into the hands of others, they won’t be interrogated or exposed. It seems like this group of people really doesn’t want anyone to know about their background.”
“So Stubborn?”Miss Succubus was startled. “Don’t scare me. What kind of powerful person is targeting me? This doesn’t make sense. I’m just a small fry, and my existence won’t affect anyone. I…”
As she said this, she seemed to have thought of something, and her voice stopped once more.
This time, it was Zhang Heng’s turn to ask, “What is it?”
“You’ve noticed the abnormal state of the game point, right? Recently, something… HMM, something bad has happened. You players should have heard about it.”
“I heard that Thor killed a new god, and then a Valkyrie died at Copenhagen International Airport,”Zhang Heng said.
“This is the information that you players can get. The real situation… is much more serious.”Jia Jia’s expression turned serious, “These two gods are not the only ones who have died. This week, more than ten gods have been killed, and most of them are gods like me, who are not very strong and do not compete with the rest of the world. Among them, there are both new and Old Gods. This is why everyone is worried about their safety.”

“What about the organizing committee? Didn’t they do anything?”
“The organizing committee has been working, but most of their efforts have been focused on suppressing the situation and eliminating the effects. Just trying to avoid the ordinary society noticing the abnormalities has already caused them a lot of trouble. After all, many times, the situation at the scene is really hard to explain scientifically.”.
“Thor was actually quite good at that time. He just let a dark cloud cover a small neighborhood, and then he let the Lightning in the dark cloud strike randomly. The two ordinary organizing committee members who died were also made to look like they died from an accident.”. “However, what happened in Handan after that was even more exaggerated. More than a hundred people witnessed Helios driving his carriage in the sky. After that, the organizing committee spent a lot of effort to make them think that they were hallucinating because of the heat stroke.”
Jiajia’s expression was very bad. “But to be honest, until five minutes ago, I didn’t think that my luck would be so bad that I would become the next target.”
“Do you want my advice?”Zhang Heng asked.
“My Phone?”Miss Succubus was stunned, but she quickly thought of another name. “Do you think the people who targeted me have something to do with the missing phone God?”
“Yes, if I’m not mistaken, they probably found this place by locating your phone. This explains why they walked so slowly upstairs, because the location of the phone is not that accurate. They know that you are in this building, and they are far away from your sisters. This is a great opportunity for them to make a move, but they can only approach you bit by bit. The reason they chose the room we were originally in was because that room was the only room nearby where there was light coming through the crack in the door.”

Jia Jia was reminded of something and said, “When we saw them, the woman was holding a phone in her hand,”Miss Succubus said, she quickly took out her new apple from her pocket and threw it out the window.
After that, she said worriedly, “But those people already know we’re here.”
“It’s been a long time since anyone came up, so they should have already left. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have allowed their two companions to be killed by the dream of death,”Zhang Heng said as he walked into the room opposite the door, he stood at the window and looked down. As expected, the black business car that had been parked below had already left.
“I thought that they would try to save their companions. I didn’t expect them to treat their own people so coldly.”
No one continued to deal with her. Not only was Miss Succubus not happy, the worry on her face became even more serious. This was because this group of people was even more ferocious than she had imagined. Moreover, they were well-disciplined and would immediately retreat if they missed, they didn’t even care about her companions. If she was targeted by this group of people, she would probably never be able to sleep peacefully again.
Jiajia couldn’t care less about other things at this time. She gritted her teeth and said, “You said that you lack a large sum of points, so how much is a large sum? As long as you promise to protect my safety, I can think of a way to help you gather the points you want.”
Zhang Heng shook his head. “I said that the amount of points I want is too large. I don’t think you and your sisters will be able to come up with it. Furthermore, I already have a way to solve it.”
Just as Miss Succubus was feeling disappointed, someone added, “But I can agree to be your bodyguard. I just need to change the reward.”
“What kind of reward do you want?”
“I’ll decide where to go next. I need you to stay by my side and provide me with the information I need.”
Zhang Heng changed his mind. Although he didn’t care about Miss Succubus’s points, the latter’s other ability was exactly what he needed.
“You want me to provide you with information?”Jia Jia’s expression turned strange.
A succubus was indeed a weakling, especially when it came to dealing with people of the same sex. However, no matter what, she was still a supernatural creature, and she had lived for more than a thousand years, she definitely knew more about the gods than the players. Furthermore, if they weren’t bragging before, they had their own sources of information, and they were very well-informed, at least, they knew more than an ordinary receptionist like the beach pants.
More importantly, it was precisely because the succubus was a noob that Zhang Heng dared to bring her around.
“That’s all you want?”Miss Succubus didn’t seem to believe her ears.
“I don’t want much. Following me isn’t something to be worried about. Like I said, I’m in a lot of trouble too.”
However, compared to the threat that was right in front of her, Miss Succubus clearly did not take Zhang Heng’s warning to heart. She bit her finger and drew a lip-like pattern on her palm. Then, she reached out her hand, “Deal. We’ll use the Succubus’oath as evidence.”
