Chapter 1336: Chapter 1336 – Gifts
To Zhang Heng’s surprise, the task of preparing a gift for Siji was unprecedentedly simple.
He had thought that even if it wasn’t as troublesome as finding the Golden Fleece, it would still take some effort. In the end, all he had to do was pay for it.
Miss Succubus brought him to the largest department store in the city. She bought a pair of shoes, two bags, and three lipsticks. She also bought herself a bottle of perfume. In total, she spent about 50,000 yuan, zhang Heng suspected that this guy was just here to shop.
“Don’t be so surprised. Bags and shoes have a universal effect on women, regardless of whether she’s a mortal or a god,”Miss Succubus said with a chuckle, “Furthermore, Sage is a beauty lover. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have taken a fancy to Cupid.”
Seeing that Zhang Heng didn’t say anything, miss succubus continued, “I don’t know what kind of trouble you’re in, but I can sense that you’re in a hurry. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have hesitated when I suggested preparing the present.”
“I’m indeed in some trouble,”Zhang Heng admitted.
“Is it from the organizing committee?”Miss Succubus asked. “Because you seem to be paying special attention to the news from the organizing committee.”
“Yes, but it’s not just the organizing committee. However, at this stage, it’s possible that the organizing committee made the first move because I met an earlier and had a small conflict with him,”Zhang Heng said.
“An? The main god of Sumerian mythology, the chief judge of the organizing committee?”Miss Succubus frowned, but then she immediately let go, “Forget it, you don’t have to explain it to me. I’m just a little succubus. Other than providing you with all kinds of information as promised, I can’t help you with anything else even if I wanted to. I don’t want to get into too much trouble because of this.”

“Don’t worry, if big trouble really comes knocking on my door, I’ll also break the oath with you in advance,”Zhang Heng said.
“It’s not that easy to cancel a succubus promise.”Miss Succubus sighed. “Forget it, let’s not raise a flag. Let’s go meet Sage first.”
The shopping mall was not far from their destination. Zhang Heng took a taxi and arrived at their destination in no time.
It was an office building located in the prime location of the development zone. The surrounding facilities were complete. It was a total of 32 floors high, and it was sublet to different companies for office space.
Zhang Heng and Miss Succubus were going to the 15th floor of this office building. This was a young internet company called de Dan Ping. It had just been established less than half a year ago, and its main focus was online dating.
/ please keep reading on MYB0XN0VEL(d0t)C0M.
De Dan Ping’s playstyle was a bit like a combination of the popular QQ floating bottle and probing. The website’s customers would first answer 12 questions, and then shoot a video to introduce themselves. This video would be placed in the floating bottle, however, unlike the casual floating of the QQ floating bottle, the app created a powerful algorithm that would help you find the right person to exchange bottles with based on your previous answers.
Zhang Heng also looked at the app’s official website. From the description, it didn’t seem like anything new, but recently, there had been an upsurge in downloads because of the feedback from the first batch of registered users, this app was exceptionally useful. Many people even felt like they had finally met their long-awaited soul mate the moment they opened the bottle. On the first day, they rushed out, and on the second day, they couldn’t help but ask for a marriage certificate together.
Even those who had been through dozens of failed blind dates, those who had grown older and were scolded by their parents for being unfilial, or those who had stayed pure for forty years just to marry into a rich family and fulfill their dreams of a small age.., even those accountants who had fallen in love with a certain female streamer and had given up all their money and even helped their own company give up all their money were all happy to mention their life partners with the help of Dan Dan. It was rather strange that the app wasn’t downloaded.

Miss Succubus scoffed at this. “What kind of Bullsh * T algorithm is this? It’s obvious that this thing was created by Cupid. It would be a miracle if the success rate is low. Anyway, as long as you’re hit by his arrow, you and B * Stard will be able to see eye to eye.”
Zhang Heng did not comment on this.
The elevator soon reached the 16th floor. Originally, the DSD bottle shared this floor with five small start-up companies. However, after it became popular, it rented the entire floor. Furthermore, the corridor was still under renovation.
Miss Succubus walked past a scaffolding and went to the front desk. She registered a visitor with an administrative girl there. Zhang Heng took this opportunity to take a look at the DSD bottle lobby.
On the right-hand side of the front desk, a large screen was scrolling through an advertisement for ‘unattached bottles’. The female lead of the advertisement was a beautiful girl who looked a little dazed. She was using her phone to take pictures of her own day. Zhang Heng glanced at the screen and shifted his gaze to the left. There was an ERABAO. The photo on the screen was also of the girl in the advertisement. There were also some materials placed on the shelves for the visitors to use. The covers were all the same person.
Obviously, the woman in the advertisement was the spokesperson of the company. Seeing Zhang Heng sizing up the photo, the other administrative girl who was in charge of organizing the documents also raised her head and said, “This is president Gu’s new advertisement. President Gu is really too beautiful. With her advertisement, our app’s download rate will definitely go up another level.”
Zhang Heng could tell that she was sincere when she said that. It wasn’t just her subordinates fawning over their superiors, but a male employee who passed by also nodded in agreement.
Zhang Heng and Miss Succubus looked at each other and knew that this must be the real deal.
After all, Sage in the story was famous for her beauty that even Venus was jealous of. However, even though the girls in the advertisement were also very beautiful, even more so than most A-list female celebrities, they were not as beautiful as the rumors said, before Sage came to China, she must have made some adjustments to her appearance so that it would not be too shocking.
At this time, the administrative girl had already put down the phone in her hand and said to Zhang Heng and Miss Succubus, “President Gu is in his office and has already postponed the morning meeting. I’ll take you there.”
“Thank you for your hard work,”Zhang Heng said.
The two followed the administrative girl to an office on the right. The administrative girl knocked on the door. “President Gu, the guests have arrived.”
Then, a gentle voice came from inside. “Okay, invite them in.”
To be honest, this voice sounded more like a kindergarten teacher than a female white-collar worker in an office building, especially a company executive. After all, it was difficult to control subordinates if they were too gentle.

The Pokemon Ranger
Summoned from his unjust suffering in the mundane world, Spike finds himself before Arceus, who opts to send him to the world of Pokemon with the request to assist in maintaining the world's harmony. Afterwards, Arceus sends him off with the egg of a Riolu who will be his partner along the journey. Next thing he knows, he wakes up with a headache in the body of a five-year-old boy in the middle of a forest in Hoenn. Thus begins the journey of a Pokemon Ranger who will come to be feared by those hiding in the dark of the Pokemon world.____________________________________________________________Author Note:Please keep in mind that this is an AU (Alternate Universe). I will be taking aspects of the Pokemon world that I find to be the most fun and enjoyable and editing some things as I see fit. The world will contain some elements and characters from the anime, manga, and games, but it will also have some original characters and a mostly original storyline. It will not go fully grimdark like some gritty parts of the manga or some more realistic fanfictions, but also won’t be all sunshine and roses like the games. Overall, I do want to keep the story on the lighthearted side, but there will be some more serious plots as well. About 90% taking the story seriously and 10% wish fulfillment, I suppose. Note: I am also posting this fanfiction on Webnovel. No difference on release times for chapters.Also, as an update because of the people who messaged me about the multiple transmigrators, the existence of other transmigrators won't have much, if any, affect on the main plotline (or the harem if that's what those people are worried about). There will only be a handful of interactions with a few of the transmigrators during some of the more dangerous scenarios I have planned. I don't expect this to change anybody's mind, but thought it was worth mentioning. Also, I edited the first chapter to make this more obvious.Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon or speak for GameFreak, Nintendo, or Pokemon. I'm just a fan having some fun in his free time.

Life in another world with an Immunity System
NOTE: I just finished a large scale editing with the chapters. From now on, the world is no longer a 1000X Earth. I have added my original element. From here on, with a few exceptions, no similarity can be found with our Earth. Thank you. The change has been applied from chapter 1. So if anyone finds any missed places or traces of my previous world-building, please comment and notify me. Andel lived in a world where those with powers will have the final say in everything. In his world, having no aptitude to either magic or Ki means you are even worse than ants. Unfortunately, he didn’t have any aptitude to either. His life should have been hell, but due to being the son of two powerful parents and descendant of a powerful family saved him from a wretched fate. Life was harsh, but Andel wasn’t one to mourn and do nothing. From his childhood, he learned all kinds of close-combat styles and martial arts, proving himself to be a genius at close combat as long as ki isn’t involved. As genius as he was, there was no way he could match those with powers, right? Wrong! Andel had another identity. He was originally a person from Earth who got transmigrated after an accident. Moreover, during his transmigration, he also gained a system that gave him resistance to various things in exchange for experience points. With the Immunity System in hand, Andel decided to finally step into this magical new world and make a name for himself, after spending twenty years in training.

Scholar of the Fog
Leaving a trail of blood as he climbed up a hill, his limbs felt like lead. He was gasping too, his lungs burning with every step he took. It felt like a bundle of broken glass was scraping away the inner walls of his flesh. He was dying, obvious to both him and his pursuers. And it would not be long till he dropped dead as he bled away. If not, the people chasing him would surely finished what they had came for. It was as if the Gods themselves had already predestined his fate. He took one step forward and stood at the peak of the hill. He let his legs rest as he could barely go on. Heaving deep breaths, he could hear sneering voices and shouts behind him. They were close, and the grim realization stoked the embers of his most primal fear. He did not want to die. He had dreams, like any other youth. There was glory to be had in this world. He wanted to learn more of life, and lived through its motions. He wanted to live. He swept his gaze, and across him was a spanning forest of old. With a glint in his eyes, and jaws clenched, he decided to gamble with all he had. He was dying, and by now, it did not matter where his grave was. He ran down the hill, and stopped where the plains and the forest met. His eyes swept about the trees, and he could feel an instinctual urge to drag himself away. He knew what this forest was, and here, he would find his salvation. Or his doom. The voices behind him grew closer, and among the noise was the faint clanging of steel. Gritting his teeth, he ousted all the will he had from the depths of his soul and stepped forth into the forest. Damned he be by the Gods if they wanted him dead. -new synopsis 10/6/2016 ---------- A new chapter would be released every friday. And the quality of writing should improve each time, hopefully. Another important thing to mention is how the story as of now, is only a bedrock for a massive world if it ever gets there. (CH18) And if possible, reviews are very much appreciated. ---------- For the ones who are interested in the old synopsis: With one foot in the grave, he ran away for that little bit of hope. Exhausted and bleeding, it was only a matter of time until he passed out. By then, his fate would be sealed and he would be no more. Thus, he had to make a decision that might just save his life. It was a gamble, he knew, but he had no He ran into the forbidden forest where no man had ever come back. He headed within, intending to scare his pursuers away. But they persisted in their chase, hounding him down until he was forced to take a step of no return. There, in the darkest depths of the forest, was the ghastly fog and behind him where men who wanted his head. Left with nothing else, he stepped forth and crossed the boundary of the living and the dead. Henceforth, his fate was forever changed. No longer just a scholar, but something more…
