It turns out to be Mona who has combined the abilities of Harry Potter. I can’t remember her real name because it’s too long.
Zhou Ning was actually a bit surprised. He had prepared for the worst and thought it would only happen to a few magicians, such as Lisa, but he had never expected it to be her...
The common point between the two is probably that they are both proficient in the field of mysticism?
Zhou Ning couldn't help but want to hold his forehead. Compared with the glory of the previous lottery, this wave made him really disappointed. Not only did he fail to keep Harry Potter's little animal, but the guaranteed prize was also drawn wrong.
Compared to the original Harry Potter, the current Harry Potter, having successfully cultivated the Sunflower Manual, was undoubtedly stronger, but also a disadvantage, not much growth. Furthermore, both templates had relatively many skills, which Zhou Ning felt polluted the skill pool, much like Bone King, reducing the cost-effectiveness.
However, this character is also quite strong, and currently even stronger than the Time Elf, which is only a purple template. I feel I can compete with her for the qualification to enter the Sister-Slaying dungeon for simulation.
Just as he was about to click on the template training mode to continue training new people, his spiritual sense was suddenly touched, and he noticed a "dong dong dong" sound of running coming from the ceiling. When he looked over, the scene there was naturally reflected in his mind.
A gray mouse, almost the size of an adult cat, was running around in the ceiling cavity, its eyes bloodshot, and it seemed to be very manic.
In fact, due to unknown reasons, there have always been a lot of rats in the Kingdom of Sifalik, which led them not only to like raising cats, but also to specially train rat terriers and a small dog breed similar in size to dachshunds specifically to catch rats.
This kind of scene is very common in ordinary hotels, and even in Zhou Ning's former dormitory. However, this is the first time he has seen such a large rat! Its size is almost like it has been injected with steroids.
Zhou Ning didn't indulge it, and just a thought made it faint. And then, he noticed Smith Hall hurriedly coming back from outside the hotel, walking up the stairs to his room, and knocking on the door.
The time now is 5:20 in the morning... What should have happened?
Zhou Ning glanced at his clothes, used the Force to push and stretch, and accurately pulled out a set of relatively casual clothes from the closet more than ten meters away. He put on his coat, pants, and leather boots, opened the door, and quietly looked at Smith Hall standing outside. He asked in a deep voice:
"What's the matter? Any new discoveries?"
Upon seeing Zhou Ning, Smith Hall instinctively straightened his back in awe. He saluted, then cleared his throat and said, "Yes, I went to the West Farik Archaeological Association's headquarters to investigate as you said, but they're all dead! They were all killed by a man named Rick Green! He hasn't been found yet."
"I've researched his background. He's a researcher at the West Faliq Archaeological Association, studying under Billy Raman, the vice president of the West Faliq Archaeological Association. He was a very promising historian, but a few months ago he met a woman named Anne Robbins and became one of her many lovers. He was then bewitched by her and led an expedition to Hood Island."
"And this woman named Annie Robbins is the alias of Carl Robbins. It should be certain now. Carl Robbins used some means to take over Rick Green's body, just as he transferred himself to Josie West, which led to the death of all members of the Archaeological Association." Smith Hall said meaningfully.
Zhou Ning nodded silently. He basically agreed with Smith Hall's judgment, and even thought that Edward killed those members of the Archaeological Association just because he accidentally met him on the road just now.
"Wait...Billy Laman?" Zhou Ning keenly caught the new name and instinctively felt familiar. Then he remembered the source. Is there any connection between the two?
"What? Is he having problems too?" Smith Hall asked hurriedly. He was immediately startled by a large gray rat that scurried across the corridor. "What the hell is that?"
Zhou Ning also saw the big rat, pulled the corner of his mouth, and said in a deep voice:
"It's possible. You still remember Negan Hart, right? I found a business card among his belongings with this name printed on it. It should be the same person, but he may not be related to this incident. You can send someone to investigate."
"Okay." Smith Hall nodded. Just as he was about to leave, Zhou Ning stopped him. "I want to ask, what are you going to do next?"
"Go get the others to start working now. Search the entire island for those two." Smith Hall gave Zhou Ning a thumbs-up, his teeth so white they seemed to be reflecting light, and smiled. "When it comes to responsibility, the Wings of Law never rest. Oh, by the way, I contacted Patriarch Roger before I came here. After learning what happened here, he will definitely come early, and he will arrive this afternoon at the latest."
Oh? That's good news. I've always felt a little uneasy. If I had a demigod-level helper, the pressure would be relieved a lot. As for the others... Zhou Ning thought about it, finally made up his mind, and said to Smith Hall, "Wait here for a moment."
He quickly returned to his room and took out the blank Advent Cards he had just obtained from the bathroom. He took out one and chose to use it. A prompt popped up on the panel:
【Please select the target of your descent.】
A dense row of purple templates appeared above the card, some of which were quite powerful. Zhou Ning saw that the Time Elf and the Superb Tiger were also among them. The most conspicuous one was the Sky-Sweeping Wings Zhou Ning, his true self, who was wearing a black silk half-top hat and a windbreaker of the same color.
With no clear choice, Zhou Ning chose himself without hesitation. A rich golden glow shone from the blank Advent Card. An image of himself slowly emerged, wearing a black silk half-top hat, his hand resting on the brim. The card's quality also changed to Legendary, or orange.
[Sky-Sweeping Wings·Zhou Ning's Arrival Card: You briefly possess the abilities of Sky-Sweeping Wings·Zhou Ning, lasting 2 minutes. Note: If you are not the one using this card, your combat consciousness will take over the battle, and the opponent can only spectate.]
Seeing the instructions, Zhou Ning couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. This battle mode was a bit like the way he used the Advent Card at the beginning. Before the Crossing Simulator was updated to version 3.0, he could only let the opponent log in while he watched the fun, and he had no idea what skills the opponent was using or how to attack next.
His only concern before was that giving this card to others might reveal his background, but now he no longer has this concern.
Zhou Ning returned to the somewhat restless Smith Hall and handed him the Advent Card, saying, "This card allows others to temporarily use my power for only two minutes. If there's any danger, use this card. You should be able to hold out until I arrive."
Smith Hall took the card, looked at Zhou Ning deeply, raised the corner of his mouth, and said softly and sincerely: "Thank you. Now I really want to invite you to my home - if we can succeed. My wife will definitely like you very much."
That's totally unnecessary. Zhou Ning chuckled and waved him off. He then watched him go from room to room, calling people out to work. He then returned to his room and clicked on the template training mode again to continue training new people.
[Creating random templates. ]
【The initial template is determined to be blue.】
[Matching...]
[Matching succeeded. 】
You are a perverse, vengeful gangster. You've always been reckless and committed countless crimes. But just as your evil forces were broken down and dismantled by the police, and you were about to face justice, you were given the opportunity to travel back in time. What kind of waves can you create in this journey? But even after traveling back in time, you still want to ask, do you have the strength to fight me, Zhou Ning?
