Chapter 33: The Count of Monte Cristo and Becoming the Protagonist
Tang Qide used to be a very good young man, self-motivated, hardworking, diligent and capable, kind and easy to trust others, but he was very good at using his brain and often had good ideas. With these rare qualities in today's society, he actually mixed well among his peers, graduated from college and went out to start a business, seized some opportunities, and now can be regarded as a small achievement, and at the same time has a beautiful girlfriend and a group of good brothers who can be trusted.
It's just that all this came to an abrupt end five years ago, when he was betrayed by a "brother", and a major business occurred, when the company faced a bankruptcy crisis, Tang Qide took a risk, borrowed usury but failed to turn it around in one fell swoop, but suffered a commercial overturn, which directly led to the collapse of the whole market. His girlfriend left, his brothers were scattered, and he had to go out to hide from his relatives, and he hid for a year, until two months ago, he came back again, and learned that his brother Qi Wu, who betrayed him back then, has now become the backbone of a rival company, which can be described as a spring breeze.
If no accident happens, then even if Tang Qide pays off all the sky-high debts he owes and comes back, he will not be able to get Qi Wu.
But the unexpected happened, and the re-returned Don Qide got the wealth from Monte Cristo - he was possessed by a personality named Edmond Dantès, and became the Count of Monte Cristo in the 21st century, the most famous avenger in the world!!
Don Ringer no longer exists, and now only the Count of Monte Cristo has returned, and he will take revenge on his enemies and vent his anger!
"This is the script you prepared for me?" Tang Qide sighed, raised his eyelids, and looked at the shadow in front of him, "An old-fashioned Avengers story? The story of the Count of Monte Cristo was a novel essay in 1844, but now it's too old-fashioned, do I have to act according to this script? ”
The shadow didn't seem to expect Tang Qide to react like this at all, and he let out a hoarse voice that couldn't distinguish between men and women: "Don't you want revenge?" ”
"Of course I thought, Qi Wu's kid is not kind, and I do want him to taste the taste of betrayal and poverty, but this is the twenty-first century, and it is no longer useful just to have money like during the French Hundred Days, how can I completely reproduce the story of the Count of Monte Cristo? Back then, I also wanted to turn the tables because of brain congestion and loan sharks, otherwise it wouldn't have been so miserable. Tang Qide raised his finger and tapped the corner of his eyebrows, and said mockingly: "That's right, I was indeed affected by part of Edmond Dantès's personality and had a self-cognitive disorder, but I didn't get the relevant memory, the memory I have is still Tang Qide's memory, and the formation of people's personality is related to experience, so after a simple self-examination, we can draw a simple conclusion - I am still Tang Qide, not the Count of Monte Cristo." ”
"What do you want to say?"
"I mean, why did you come to your door now, and what did you want me to reproduce the Count of Monte Cristo?" Tang Qide squinted his eyes, picked up a strange-looking can of drink from the side, and didn't open it, just held it in his hand, "What is this power I suddenly get?" ”
The shadow of "......" was silent for a moment, he probably did not expect that the possessed of the Count of Monte Cristo would have his own memories (Jack the Ripper was overwhelmed by the killing intent carried by his own personality, and no one could tell whether he had the memories of the possessed person), and was so negative about "being himself", he paused for a moment before re-speaking: "I hope you can become stronger, I have met beings like you before, and there are many of them in this city, according to the current observations." You will only become stronger if you continue to be yourself. ”
"Oh?" Tang Qide raised his eyebrows, "By the way, by the way, how did my companion you saw before become stronger?" ”
"Kill. The last possessed personality I met was Jack the Ripper, who, in the course of his many crimes, grew in strength and was more able to conceal his whereabouts. It's a pity that he was killed. ”
Tang Qide's eyelids jumped.
"Hey, of course this world isn't just wild anomalous carriers like you, the person who killed Jack the Ripper is the country's official anomalous organization, the field operator of the Institute. If you let them know about your existence, you will be arrested, if not on the spot, if not on the spot. The shadow smiled and began to intimidate Tang Qide, who didn't know anything, "You are not a person who will sit still like this, but if you want to have the ability to resist, you have to become the Count of Monte Cristo and complete your revenge." What do you think? I'm here to help you, Edmond Dantès! Let me help you become the protagonist of this drama! ”
Tang Qide didn't answer the shadow directly, just lowered his head and reached out to open the pull ring of the canned drink in his hand that was like a blazing flame, and then splashed it in the direction where the shadow was!
"Boom—"
As soon as the transparent liquid touched the air, it turned into a scorching flame, and rushed towards the shadow that was caught off guard, the latter was hit by the flame, and then wailed in pain, and then insulted Tang Qide in that hoarse voice, while quickly turning around, extinguishing the flames and rushing out of Tang Xinde's villa.
"Hey, I thought it was some kind of invulnerable ghost, but I couldn't stand it with a fire." Tang Qide rolled his eyes, casually threw the empty flame drink can into the trash, and unhurriedly took out a large carton of milk from the refrigerator on the side, opened it and poured it towards the raging flame. Miraculously, the flame ignited by the liquid was extinguished at the touch of milk, which was extinguished faster and more effectively than normal extinguishing methods, "I said why there was always a voice in my heart that made me constantly desire to be the Count of Monte Cristo, to make me the 'protagonist'." I didn't understand it all the time, but now it's a bit eyebrow-raising, and the mastermind behind all this wants to give birth to a protagonist, so as to make this drama more lively and exciting. ”
"Heh, no matter what, this gave me a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If it weren't for this ability, I would still be hiding in a place I don't know, doing odd jobs and struggling. It doesn't matter who you are, whatever you want to do, it doesn't matter, I'll get your revenge as you wish. ”
"That shadow is such an idiot, I'm Don Tak, but I'm also Edmund Dantès! The Count of Monte Cristo will not spare any of his enemies, and my plan of revenge has already begun, and I don't need his help at all! ”
