Chapter 392: Chapter 377 Plant Puppet Master

Members of the Blue Lion Society, under Raymond’s leadership, carefully traverse through piles of the dead.

Just a short while ago, under the siege of hundreds of “Famine Variants”, the once dire situation of the Blue Lion Society was instantly turned around.

All the believers of the Lutson family received some sort of command at the same time, and then collectively used their claws to cut open their own chests and take out their hearts, ending their lives in a tragic self-sacrifice.

Now within this village, corpses lay everywhere. As everyone stepped into the church, they saw a great number of innocents and the “creator” of all this — that seemingly frail but unfathomable figure, smiling at three children who had just awakened.

“Mr. Principal!”

In a trance, including Raymond, everyone felt a complete sense of security at that moment.

The three children were a brown curly-haired boy, a red-haired boy, and a plump little girl.

Before coming here, Tang Qi had looked over their files.

Their names were Colin, Tate, and Drew. Colin’s ability appeared to be some kind of spiritual Transcendence, similar to telekinesis, which for now only manifested in moving objects. Tate, on the other hand, had the ability to turn into a beast, randomly transforming into some kind of beast when his emotions were unstable.

Drew was a bit more peculiar.

Tang Qi’s gaze was now fixed on her hands and feet. Her small body was shackled with heavy manacles.

“Curios: Manacles forged of Extraordinary Metal, specifically designed to counter Invisibility abilities…”

“Bang~”

As the ghost light passed, Tang Qi had shattered the manacles.

Without a key, violence was the only option.

As if reactively, once the manacles disappeared, Drew’s body slowly became transparent, starting from her feet, an incredibly magical sight which caused some of the ordinary humans who were faintly waking up to faint once more.

After seeing this, Tang Qi’s expression didn’t change.

He just smiled, holding Colin’s hand with one hand and reaching into the transparent area with the other, quietly waiting for two seconds before a plump little hand cautiously reached out of the void and grasped Tang Qi’s palm.

“Next, I, as the Principal, will escort you back. Please take good care during the journey.”

Tang Qi’s temperament, coupled with the infectious power brought by his immense spiritual power, quickly won over the three little guys.

At the entrance of the church, the members of the Blue Lion Society watched this scene and smiled, then under Raymond’s command, they automatically took over the task of dealing with the aftermath, which was quite simple: notify the officials to come and clean up.

There wasn’t much to find in the village strewn with bodies.

There was still some money, given that Jessica had been a female millionaire before entering the Extraordinary World.

According to the rules of the Mysterious Side, after the Devil State officials have finished cleaning up, they will send a token of thanks to both the Blue Lion Society and the Witch School.

Of course, Tang Qi didn’t care about these things.

Unless it was a high-level Curios, a rare material, or precious knowledge such as witchcraft or secrets, ordinary Divine Grace Coins could no longer attract Tang Qi’s attention. If he were greedy for money, there were plenty of sunken ships at the depths of Green Dragon Ridge Lake, where with some time, Tang Qi could obtain a considerable fortune, but he wasn’t someone who could afford to waste time on such pursuits.

What could have been a major incident involving the Lutson family was extinguished overnight with Tang Qi’s arrival.

However, Tang Qi didn’t leave immediately, as the three little guys were all a bit languid, not suitable for a long journey.

Tang Qi took them to the Blue Lion Society’s quarters to rest for the night, while he exchanged knowledge with Mr. Raymond.

Raymond, who came from the Mohawk Tribe, held a wealth of knowledge, some of which wasn’t even recorded in the vast number of books in the Library Tower. Since Tang Qi had the chance to obtain such knowledge, he had no reason to let it go.

The night passed quickly.

Tang Qi, having absorbed a vast amount of knowledge, showed not a hint of fatigue in his brow, still brisk and alert. After having a simple breakfast with Mohawk characteristics, he took the three little ones and bid farewell to the Blue Lion Society.

Right before leaving, an outer member of the Blue Lion Society suddenly came in and reported a message.

The report was directed at Tang Qi.

“You mean to say there’s a little girl calling herself a reporter who’s coming to interview me? And she chased after me all the way from Secret Phoenix City?”

Tang Qi was astonished after hearing the description.

Then, lifting his head, he saw all the members of the Blue Lion Society showing a look of admiration, as if to say “of course you are a big star,” which made Tang Qi somewhat embarrassed.

An exclusive interview, this is also a first for me, Tang Qi reasoned to himself.

…

Weia Castle, a pastoral train station, a train called the “Fruit Bat” was preparing to depart, its final destination impressively being Secret Phoenix City.

“Divine Eagle National Geography? Miss Selma?”

Still in the first carriage, Tang Qi arranged for the three little ones to sit down in order, while he himself held a business card, gazing at the long list of names and titles on it. His eyes, filled with a slight surprise, then settled on the proud-looking “little girl” across from him.

A very familiar girl, if he hadn’t remembered wrong, this should be their second meeting.

The first time was in the territory of Savoy, at the Old Tavern.

Miss Selma, in the body of a ten-year-old girl, came to Savoy asking for some alcoholic drink but ended up with a cup of milk supplemented with moon pattern and sugar powder.

Along the way, she also taught a lesson to a creep, Tang Qi was watching the whole process at the time.

Of course, the other party was not aware.

This girl named Selma, who claimed to be nineteen, looked no more than ten at most, but it was clear from her demeanor and the business card in her hand that she was not lying.

“My full name is a bit too long, so you can just call me Selma,” she said.

“You might not have heard of our magazine, but that’s okay, you can verify directly—we are directly affiliated with the Extraordinary Geographic Society under the Permanent Neutral Organizations, newly established with the mission to introduce the true Extraordinary World to our readers with the most professional attitude.”

“I intended to initiate an interview with you on-campus about the historical truth of the Immortal Earl, but Professor Eva from your school said you had already left to deal with a sudden event, so I borrowed a private jet and came over overnight.”

“Mr. Principal, may I have the honor of having an interview with you?”

Tang Qi watched as the lady who called herself Selma laid out her request in a very organized manner.

Her eyes clearly showed curiosity about the emergency Tang Qi handled, but she forcefully suppressed it and proceeded to ask about the interview with great politeness.

“Well-educated as a noble, and quite powerful,” Tang Qi muttered to himself after observing certain details.

Silent and invisible, he activated his Special Ability.

In the next moment, a surprisingly intense ghost light overflowed unexpectedly.

[Extraordinary Creature: Plant Puppet Master.]

[State: Normal.]

[Information Fragment One: A genius-level professional, her father is a powerful Spirit Plant Master from the Eternal Heaven Dynasty and her mother belongs to an ancient family of the Europe Alliance. Their union was once opposed by both families, until the talented Selma was born. She had cultivated two different Extraordinary Professions, but due to an accident, her physical body was permanently fixed around the age of ten.]

[Information Fragment Two: She cultivated both as a Spirit Plant Master and a Plant Puppet Apostle, and at adulthood she was officially promoted to a Plant Puppet Master.]

[Information Fragment Three: After becoming a Professional Level Expert, she turned down work offers from the FBI, Eternal Heaven Dynasty’s Unusual Event Investigation Department, and Europe International Incident Response Teams, instead joining the permanently neutral Divine Eagle National Geography.]

…

“A Professional Level Plant Puppet Master!”

A gleam of light flashed in Tang Qi’s eyes.

But it was soon concealed, and after pondering for a moment, he cast an “Illusion Spell” around the cabin to shield the perceptions of ordinary passengers, then he began to take out snacks and hot drinks one by one from Gluttony’s belly, laying them on the table, causing Colin, Tate, and Drew, the three Little Guys, to cheer immediately.

All the food was takeout that Tang Qi had purchased from the Old Tavern.

Preserved in Gluttony’s belly, they maintained their utmost freshness.

The flavor, absolutely delicious.

Tang Qi actually wanted to take out another dish he made himself with Extraordinary Effect, but after thinking it over, he decided not to leave a scar in the students’ hearts, better to deceive them back to school first, as there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.

After arranging for the three Little Guys, Tang Qi smiled brilliantly and said to Selma: “I can agree to your interview, but… I have a condition.”

Selma, secretly eyeing the delicious pastries and swallowing saliva, heard the word “agree” and was about to cheer, but the following sentence made her suppress that thought.

She took a breath and bowed slightly, saying, “Please, go ahead!”

“It’s apparent you’re of mixed blood, with paternal lineage from the Eternal Heaven Dynasty?”

Upon hearing this, Selma froze for a moment. She had met many Transcendents, but only Tang Qi had been able to directly guess that her Asian heritage came from her father’s side, from the Eternal Heaven Dynasty.

She nodded straight away, responding, “Correct!”

“I have always been very interested in the Eternal Heaven Dynasty. I will tell you all the details and truths about the Immortal Earl or the emergency I resolved last night, but you must also share some adventure tales or experiences in exchange.”

“Especially those concerning the Eternal Heaven Dynasty.”

“No problem!”

Selma agreed without hesitation to such a simple request.

As for why Tang Qi, a strong person who grew up in the Federation, was interested in the Eternal Heaven Dynasty across the endless ocean, Selma chalked it up to Tang Qi’s native bloodline.

“Then, let’s get started.”

In Selma’s somewhat excited voice, a seed rolled over.

Without a sound, it split open, and tender green vines emerged, blossoming delicate, trumpet-shaped flowers that all turned towards Tang Qi without touching his body.

This miraculous scene prompted surprised exclamations from the three Little Guys enjoying their food.

And Tang Qi himself was momentarily taken aback, genuinely feeling the absurd sensation of “I am a superstar.”
