Chapter 132: 132 Ghost Dance Witch
Chapter 132: Chapter 132 Ghost Dance Witch
The burly man wearing monoframe glasses, completely disregarding his own bulging muscles and striking a scholarly, refined pose like a professor, looked at the crowd that was about to turn rowdy and lightly raised his hands.
Bang!
It was only a clap, yet it produced a sound wave-like effect, suppressing the voices of everyone present.
For Transcendents like Tang Qi, there was mostly no reaction, but those who were clearly only Contactors started to feel dizzy.
At this moment, the big man spoke again.
“All you Lucky Ones, the Seals in your hands were delivered by those foolish birds. Some of you are genuine Transcendents worthy of this qualification, while others are just ordinary people who have stumbled in here accidentally. My task tonight is to send the ordinary people home.”
“After the Transcendents make their choice, the rest must hand over the Seals, and then our people will remove from your minds any memory of this place. When you wake up, your ordinary life will continue.”
“Now, make your choice, ladies and gentlemen. You only have ten minutes.”
When the big man finished speaking, first, the crowd fell into silence, then immediately began to stir.
The real Transcendents were deep in thought at this time.
But those ordinary folks who had wandered in by mistake, or the Contactors, showed signs of dissatisfaction.
Where was the mysterious encounter they had been promised?
How had it suddenly turned into being unceremoniously expelled, with their memories cleansed to boot?
Unfortunately, this was clearly not a place where they could make decisions. The Transcendents in the crowd had made their choices, ignoring the commotion and heading left or right.
Tang Qi was among them.
He “played” the role of a rugged, experienced middle-aged man. Soon after the big man finished speaking, he walked straight to the left.
Those who chose the same as him accounted for the majority of the Transcendents.
A total of eleven people, they nodded at each other, very conscientiously stepping forward one by one.
While waiting, Tang Qi pondered the method of obtaining the Seal that the big man had mentioned before.
It sounded like a plot out of a fantasy novel; the Seal was delivered by some kind of magical bird, and who it was given to seemed to be decided by those birds.
Since they’d chosen this method, those magical birds must have the ability to detect Transcendents.
The success rate, however, may be rather touching.
“I haven’t received a Seal, probably because most of the time I’m within the school grounds, and Lord Confessor’s residual power prevents Extraordinary Creatures from approaching?”
“Of course, it could also be because when I showed my Extraordinary Power, those birds didn’t notice me.”
After muttering to himself a couple of times, Tang Qi was quite interested in the scene before him, paying attention with a divided focus.
He also started paying attention to the ordinary people stirring in the crowd, as well as the first Transcendent being validated at the front.
After these eleven people chose the first option, several Transcendents wearing hoodies or masks headed straight to the right, obviously choosing the second option, to be hired by the Market Initiator Organization to clear out low-level anomalies.
This method had the benefits of receiving compensation and not revealing one’s own information.
If he had not concocted the Second Body Secret Medicine, Tang Qi might have chosen this as well.
After all the Transcendents had made their choices, the remaining ordinary people and common Contactors fell into panic.
Some people who believed they had special abilities hesitantly followed Tang Qi and others to the left, while a few bold ones, after realizing their protests were ineffective, chose the right side.
The big man saw their choices, but did not stop them.
And the last group of people, just as they were about to become noisy and threaten the big man, heard him clap once more, and those people’s eyes rolled back as they passed out.
“Hypnotic ability? When did it start?”
At this point, Tang Qi could no longer suppress his curiosity, his gaze seriously focused on the two-meter tall, bespectacled big man.
Whoosh!
Intense ghost light instantly emerged.
That degree of richness was second only to the substitute of Samra that he had previously seen.
[Extraordinary Creature: Sleeper.]
[State: Normal.]
[Information Fragment One: A highly deceptive Combat Class Professional, he can hypnotize his opponent with almost any medium, a glance, a gesture, or a deliberately arranged scene, defeating his enemies silently and effortlessly.]
[Information Fragment Two: When he achieves the Promotion to Professional Level, he can even drag his enemy into a dreamlike alternate dimension for combat, where he becomes incredibly powerful.]
As the two Information Fragments flowed past, Tang Qi immediately furrowed his brow, averting his gaze.
“Sneaky guy!”
Tang Qi silently formed his own opinion of the Big Man.
Anyone who laid eyes on him for the first time would think he was a Transcendent skilled in close combat and brawling.
Few would guess that his main combat strength came from hypnosis.
After observing the Big Man, Tang Qi quickly glanced at the other Mysterious People handling various tasks in the area; due to the Sleeper’s contrast, they seemed much less conspicuous.
However, they were also Transcendents.
Fleeting ghost lights flashed by, the same Information Fragments traversing the depths of Tang Qi’s eyes.
“Shadow Soldiers, warriors who can perfectly blend into the shadows. Besides that, they also possess decent close combat ability.”
Quickly, Tang Qi shifted his gaze back to what was ahead of him, as the first Transcendent had already passed the verification.
The method was incredibly simple; there was a lady, wrapped up tightly, her face painted with oddly beautiful Oil Paint. She simply showed a pharmacist in a hood a Potion, and then easily passed through.
“Secret Alchemist?”
This conclusion was immediately dismissed by Tang Qi with a shake of his head.
A single Potion was not enough to confirm that the lady was a Secret Alchemist.
Fortunately, Tang Qi didn’t have to guess blindly, a mere look at the lady was enough, as ghost lights converged, and the answer was immediately revealed.
[Extraordinary Creature: Ghost Dance Witch.]
[State: Normal.]
[Information Fragment One: A very Mysterious Witch sect, even during the Dark Age, they left behind very little information, known only to be witches inclined towards the Order of justice, their ghost dance possesses wondrous abilities, and they also dabble in concocting Secret Medicine.]
[Information Fragment Two: Since they can only concoct a few types of Special Secret Medicine, not forming a systematic School, they cannot become an independent Secret Medicine School.]
“Some kind of Witch sect!”
Tang Qi silently logged the Information Fragments in his mind, while very naturally, his gaze moved to the next Validator.
At that moment, Tang Qi also came to a realization.
This trip was too valuable for words.
Before even entering the marketplace, he got to see so many Transcendents. Relying on his Special Ability, Tang Qi didn’t need to ask anyone or devise any verification methods like these Mysterious Organizations.
With a mere glance, he could obtain a wealth of information.
His Memory was quite good; he only needed to look at them one by one, and his Mysterious Side Knowledge kept rising incessantly.
When the information of the second Validator came into his sight, one of his previous guesses immediately turned into reality.
“The Transcendents gathered here definitely come from places beyond just Messer City.”
While reviewing the Fragments, Tang Qi affirmed.
