Chapter 7: Imitation of the Covenant

It is suspected that something came to Blue Star from Asta, and the IP address of the lucky player who met the 5th Order Mage at the beginning of the game and landed in a box happened to be in Gotham, where Chen Zhou is currently living.

He thought that these Blue Star people had put themselves here a thousand percent because they wanted themselves to investigate this matter.

Faced with the Star Folk who wanted to let him work seriously all day long, Chen Zhou decided to plan as usual and play as he wanted in Gotham......

……

"The international metropolis is lively, but it's a pity that the road is a little difficult to walk."

After a day of going to amusement parks and toy stores, Chen's biggest impression is that the road in Gotham is not as comfortable as the road in his hometown, which is straight and straight and north and south.

Towards the evening, after a whole day of wandering outside, he took the Wolong Phoenix Chick to the cinema, ready to have a popcorn feast.

"Wanda has actually opened here."

This day happened to be the weekend, and many couples and parents relaxed with their children, and the film schedule was basically a family carnival.

After taking a look at the next scene, the first scene is a weird movie about three fools making trouble in Hollywood, Chen Zhou always linked this film to an Indian film, and when he saw the name at first, he thought it was a sequel to that.

Probably because he has not been in this world for a long time, he has not yet adapted to his preference for movies here.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the sisters of this world don't seem to pay much attention to political correctness and dividing people's genders into dozens of types.

"Lily is curious about a world that divides the sexes into dozens of types."

It's a dragon, after all.

"There's no need to understand this kind of thing, let's read the story carefully."

"Dividing the sexes by something other than physiology is just a matter of eating and suffocating."

While Chan would like to agree with this view, there is no need to discriminate against people with mental illness.

It's just that after they passed the ticket gate and entered the theater, they noticed that the atmosphere seemed to be wrong.

It's like someone is secretly preparing to cause a riot?

After being in Asta for so long, he could feel a similar environment somewhat.

Therefore, Chen Zhou used the cover of illusion to perform a large-scale "detection magic", and sure enough, many people who exuded magical aura were found in the audience scattered throughout the theater.

The aura on these people is not quite the same as the usual detection, and it is believed that most of them are rumored to be supernatural beings.

With so many professionals gathered in one place, I am afraid that it is the action of the New Human Organization.

"Life in Gotham is really in dire straits."

While sighing about the joke that entered his own life, he entered the screening room as usual without thinking.

Chen Zhou wants to see what kind of work this group of supernatural people are going to do!

Half an hour later.

Chen Zhou: ZZZ~

It turns out that even removing the messy politically correct elements will not make a bad movie a blockbuster, and he has already tasted enough before the crossing, and he fell asleep bored after a while.

However, before the second scene of "Spider-Man vs. Godzilla" was about to be broadcast, a familiar figure with three points replaced the fat woman who was constantly chewing popcorn in the last game.

It was a cleanly dressed and well-dressed young Asian who entered the screening room and frowned and looked around the hall for a long time, and finally sat next to Chen and Lily.

After nodding to Lily, who was disguised as a little girl with a curious face, the seated young man swiped his phone and observed several interesting figures in the dim projection room with his peripheral vision.

After careful observation, Wolong and Phoenix Hina both sensed the style of a certain Star Folk who should have been saying goodbye to them forever.

"Repeater?"

Eventually, Jerry screamed tentatively.

Hearing this, the capable Asian young man looked surprised and subconsciously looked in the direction where the voice came from.

However, due to illusions, Jerry's form was not revealed.

In the eyes of the Asian youth known as the repeater, the other party is just a middle-aged man who took his daughter to watch a movie and fell asleep.

The illusion that Chen Zhou used illusion to create for himself was indeed middle-aged...... After all, with his age before the crossing, he couldn't give birth to a little girl who looked like he was in her teens, and it was easy to be stopped by the police.

After hesitating for a moment, the repeater whispered tentatively: "Tiger, get up?" ”

Chen Zhou: ZZZ

"It's me, Lily thought I'd never see you again."

More than a month ago, after entering the Necro Zone, all the Starfolk who were originally on the Obsidian disappeared without a trace, being physically disconnected and unable to reconnect.

At that time, Chen and Lily thought that they would say goodbye to the repeater on the ship, but they didn't expect that they happened to meet each other in this world.

"Don't talk like I'm dead, hey, it's not a chance encounter." The repeater sighed and scratched his head with mixed feelings, "I'm a private investigator, hired by the archbishop who can't make a big deal in Gotham to investigate. ”

Private Investigator ...... It's a very lucrative profession in Huaxia, but it's okay here in Ami.

Usually, the repeater is at most a pick-up to catch cheating and stalking other people's work, but this time the task I received from the archbishop, who is a netizen, is to investigate an organization that has gained fame in recent times.

"Is it a new human? The madmen who think the supernatural are otherworldly and decide to rule the world?"

"The problems of the new humans are huge, but it's not them that I'm going to investigate."

The repeater glanced around, and then whispered, "I'm investigating a sect that is trying to give birth to a god they believe in as a 'spirit' supernatural phenomenon. ”

Mortals always seem to be interested in the existence of gods, ghosts, and the like.

After realizing that those strange spirits could appear and gain abilities based on the collective consciousness, an organization called the "House of Hope", which is also a sect and charity, was moved.

"Charity? It sounds like a good organization, but this supernatural phenomenon can't contain the personality of a god."

Just as a glass of water can't fit into an entire ocean, so a mere "spirit" can't hold a god.

Even if they did come up with something plausible, it would be nothing more than a human fantasy and a side of the god they hoped for.

"Not necessarily, in fact, compared to evil spirits or hungry spirits, imitation pact spirits are the most suitable name for them."

The spirit of the covenant is a being that is neither alive nor dead.

What does not exist, dwells in an invisible place.

Those who are cursed by the gods and feared by mortals are outside the boundaries between life and non-life, death and non-death.

Even the most powerful gods can't directly touch their existence, but even the weakest mortals can summon and wield their powers.

Those contingent beings who have been given form by the will of mortals are one of the forms of existence of the Covenant Spirit.
