Chapter 1981: Chapter 1066: Meeting

“Thank you for your generosity.”

Zhou Zheng earnestly bowed to Tao Yu to express his gratitude.

Generally speaking, due to the influence of the supernatural and their own life expectancy issues, Deceit Masters often show emotional abnormalities here and there.

Almost every Deceit Master is like this; some of the more insane ones aren’t afraid of anything and even commit evil acts.

But in the team of Deceit Masters, Zhou Zheng is considered one of the more mentally stable, with a rather upright character.

He’s willing to explain these things to ordinary students and is also willing to sacrifice himself to save others.

Although the Hungry Ghost inside him caused severe issues after his death, he truly is an outlier among Deceit Masters.

Upon hearing Tao Yu’s arrangement for the Golden Battle Armor, he sincerely expressed his thanks.

Even though Tao Yu said that the cost of the Golden Battle Armor was taken as compensation, such an instantaneous suppression of supernatural resurgence is a technique worth a fortune!

“As Dachang City’s person in charge, I need to truthfully report the current situation here. Is there anything Little Duke would like to add?”

Zhou Zheng sought Tao Yu’s opinion while noticing the panoramic phone hovering beside him, filming.

It might not even require me to report since the intelligence personnel at headquarters probably already noticed the situation and might contact me soon.

But as a formality, I still need to report.

“Do as you please.”

Tao Yu had already started live streaming, so he obviously didn’t mind Zhou Zheng’s words.

The exclusive contact person receiving Zhou Zheng’s report was also shocked, maybe due to a delay in the intelligence.

“A Ghostly event, at least a Grade A supernatural event?”

The contact wasn’t just shocked by the severity of the event but also by how easily it seemed to be resolved!

She’s aware of Zhou Zheng’s condition; he really shouldn’t be on missions anymore because, given his reckless use of supernatural powers, trying to save everyone, his condition worsened terribly.

And now you tell me the issue in the Ghostly event has been resolved?

“If you want details, you can check Little Duke’s video. I believe the headquarters has already seen it; I’m just performing a routine report. Additionally, I’m currently in good condition, with the issues of supernatural resurgence resolved thanks to Little Duke’s Golden Battle Armor…”

While Zhou Zheng’s report somewhat left his contact person in shock,

Fang Jing here was also incredulous, but he already put away that deranged Human Skin Paper, full of sickening flattery, which was now useless.

Fang Jing vaguely sensed that the so-called Master of the Strange mentioned on the Human Skin Paper might just be the Little Duke in front of him!

Master of the Strange? What on earth is that!

Tao Yu also sensed Fang Jing’s gaze and reached out to him

“Hand it over; that’s not something you can control.”

Tao Yu’s tone was very calm, but Fang Jing, on alert, clutched his pocket and retorted with bravado,

“None of your business! What? Is the distinguished Little Duke trying to snatch a student’s belonging? Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at by the viewers in the live stream?”

Fang Jing’s voice was stern. Ever since obtaining the Human Skin Paper, he realized he was the Child of Destiny, and this paper was his golden finger, enabling him to know everything!

Even if it started to talk nonsense now, he couldn’t abandon his strongest trump card.

With an inflated ego and considering his current age, Fang Jing didn’t have anyone in his eyes!

Right after he finished speaking, even before Tao Yu responded, a frigid aura emerged from Fang Jing, corroding his pocket, causing the Human Skin Paper to drop to the ground, its edges seemingly sprouting feet.

Though moving slowly, it arduously shuffled towards Tao Yu, flashing some red text as it moved:

’Damned fool, don’t obstruct my stride to pursue the master. If you believe me so much, why don’t you go die? I tricked you many times before; I’m not written by your future self at all…’

Perhaps the Human Skin Paper lost much of its power and lacked mobility as its slow move was promptly stepped on by Fang Jing, wanting to reclaim it.

Others found this Human Skin Paper to be rather bizarre.

Yang Jian, however, realized something, attributing Fang Jing’s drastic character change to this item.

It doesn’t look like a good thing; could Fang Jing have trusted the promises made by it…

“Ah!”

Fang Jing screamed as if scorched, recoiling from the Human Skin Paper, while Tao Yu reached out, and it floated into his hand, his tone still calm as he said,

“Why would you step on my belonging…”

“Mine! That’s mine! Give it back!”

Fang Jing’s face contorted with rage as he tried to rush at Tao Yu.

But with Zhou Zheng finishing his contact liaison, there was no way he’d allow it.

The Golden Battle Armor wrapped around him suddenly sprouted several invisible arms, capturing Fang Jing from a distance.

He also gazed at the Human Skin Paper in Tao Yu’s hand with suspicion and uncertainty.

“From the start, I felt something was off with your student. He knows too much, is overly confident yet lacks matching temperament. Seems like he acquired some strange artifact. Child, didn’t you hear what I said earlier? Why would you believe the words of a spook? It was deceiving you!”
