Douluo Continent: Starting with controlling Ning Rongrong and establishing the Holy Cult

60%, what level of soul beast must that be?

Since Lu Ma had already said it, he might as well go into more detail, so he revealed the information about the soul beast as well.

"This spirit ring comes from a three-thousand-year-old human-faced demon spider."

This news didn't cause much of a reaction.

Everyone's first impression was that the third spirit ring could be a thousand-year spirit ring, and no one cared about the upper limit, except for Tang San.

Recalling his teacher's words that the upper limit of the third spirit ring was around 1700 years, Tang San began to question his own memories.

Chapter 26 Ning Rongrong: I have a lot to consider.

Actually, the distance from the Great Soul Arena to Shrek Academy isn't very long; we arrived while chatting.

Before disbanding, Flander gave the seven boys one last piece of advice:

"What happened today was an accident; try not to spread it."

It was late at night, and everyone nodded and soon began to rest.

"yawn……"

Inside the room, Lu Ma stretched. He had been playing for three hours since he got up.

I quickly saved the game without even selecting the "Skip this night" option, and then closed it.

He then stood up, walked around for a bit, returned to his seat, picked up his phone, and found the lock screen already crammed with messages.

15:57

Friday, October 6

[WeChat: 99+ unread messages]

[PDD: 3 Logistics Updates]

ZS Bank: Explaining "Risk Assessment"...

(27) Missed calls

"Um……"

Lu Ma didn't rush to unlock the phone; instead, he stared intently at the messages on the lock screen.

Especially when his gaze fell on the missed calls, the 27 missed calls really startled him.

I quickly went through my recent schedule in my mind, but I couldn't recall any important appointments for these three hours.

Never mind, I'll just open it and see.

Lu Ma was too lazy to think, so he unlocked his phone and opened the call screen.

Of the 27 missed calls, 3 were "harassing calls," and the remaining 24 came from a contact named "Boss."

This "boss" was not a real company superior, but rather a relatively wealthy friend of Lu Ma's.

"Could something have happened to the boss? But that doesn't make sense. The phone only calls every 5 minutes, so it should be fine... Is he acting strangely?"

Lu Ma was a little confused, then opened WeChat and found that all the 99+ messages came from the pinned "Boss Sima".

Clicking on it reveals a collection of cat emojis that say "I'm angry".

Scrolling up, it was mostly filled with memes, with the occasional dialogue like "Are you done yet?" or "What do you want to eat?"

"Then everything is fine."

Lu Ma breathed a sigh of relief and immediately began writing his game experience report for the next day, sending it to Dolphin.

I just sent it, and a phone call came in on his cell phone—

"Boss Sima"

Even through the screen, Lu Ma felt a chill.

Should I accept this?

Thinking about it, his hand had already accidentally pressed the answer button.

Five seconds passed, and he made no sound, nor did "Boss Sima" make a sound.

Ten more seconds passed, and "Boss Sima" hung up the phone.

Twenty seconds later, his WeChat account started getting bombarded with messages.

[Location: A serendipitous farmhouse restaurant]

Come quickly.

-

Ning Rongrong opened her eyes and found herself on a small bed in the girls' dormitory.

It was just before dawn, and Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were still asleep.

He moved his fingers.

Good, he's gone, and I've regained control of my body.

Having already experienced breaking free from control the first time, Ning Rongrong handled the situation with ease the second time without losing control of her emotions.

Her emotions were remarkably stable, so stable that she clearly remembered it was the ninth day. The ninth day since she had been taken into custody.

On the seventh day, she joined Shrek Academy, sneaking out of the school at night to loot treasure chests. On the eighth day, she nearly died and came back to life to acquire a decent spirit ring and a spirit bone whose use she didn't know. She even killed a monster that night...

That's probably a monster.

Ning Rongrong recalled that person's monstrous appearance, which made it difficult to call him human.

She closed her eyes, sorted out her thoughts again, and memories of the past echoed in her mind.

I quietly got out of bed, tidied the bedding, and carefully left the dormitory, feeling nature with my body while reminding myself of the importance of following the natural rhythms.

"First, the control is undetectable and difficult to eliminate."

"Secondly, the controller's hobby is opening treasure chests, but I can't use the things I get from opening treasure chests."

Ning Rongrong paused for a moment, and her martial spirit appeared in her palm.

"I remember the incantation for that special soul skill was... Seven Treasures Transform into Glazed Glass, Seven Treasures Have a Name, One is Trapped Beast?"

She said it somewhat uncertainly. And just as she finished speaking, the first level of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda emitted a purple light.

The brightness wasn't high, not even as bright as Zhao Wuji's time; this purple light was just enough for me to see.

"Well, thankfully I can still use my soul skills. I remember the effect is to absorb and reflect attacks... I wonder how it will work when I use it. Let me try the third soul skill. Seven treasures turn out to produce glass, seven treasures have names, the third is poison."

The third level of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda released colorful light, which was the true form in which the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda released its soul skills.

The light gathered on Ning Rongrong's body, and Ning Rongrong felt a refreshing sensation.

The consumption of soul power is not too bad.

Ning Rongrong deactivated her soul skill and added a third point to the pattern:

"Third, I can use the soul skills that the controller gains as usual."

"Fourth, after the controller leaves, I should have a relatively long period of free time, I guess at least 5 days."

After emphasizing the four points, Ning Rongrong nodded in satisfaction, then rested her right hand on her chin and began to think again:

"So, how should I get along with my classmates?"

Previously in the sect, fueled by her anxiety and the indulgence of her elders, she directly sought out Ning Fengzhi and the others to try and resolve the issue. However, she failed.

Now that she's not in the sect, and the dean is too weak to solve the problem of her being controlled, she has no choice but to comply.

Given that the other person will soon take control of you, should you follow your own nature or follow the other person's logic?

Ning Rongrong thought about it and finally got the answer.

She would live according to that person's behavioral logic. Otherwise, if she behaved in ways that differed from that person's, her companions would likely notice something amiss.

By then, she had become the "weirdo who controlled Ning Rongrong".

Although this wouldn't be detected, at most it would just lead to questioning, but that person has the ability to rewind time. Faced with that situation, he would definitely not hesitate to rewind time to the right place, for example—this morning.

Then all your efforts will be in vain.

Thinking of this, Ning Rongrong shook her head fiercely.

Rather than completely following her instincts, she preferred to quietly leave a trace of her existence, hoping that there might be a chance to turn things around in the future and completely get rid of that person!

"So while I'm playing that person, I need to find some things that person would never do but that are reasonable... I've got it, he doesn't seem to know anything about serious cultivation and training!"

Ning Rongrong thought of an idea, but her raised eyebrows quickly fell back down.

The cultivation speed is too slow. She's afraid she won't be able to handle the slowdown if she cultivates on her own.

"So let's start with a run and get some exercise."

Ning Rongrong shook her head, quite helplessly. Being controlled is like this: the controller only needs to consider maximizing profits, completely disregarding her mental and physical state, leaving her with far more to consider.

Chapter 27 Ning Rongrong's Ordinary Day

Just do it!

Having decided on her running plan, Ning Rongrong tried taking a step.

"Tear..."

She paused, looked down at the source of the sound, and saw it was her clothes.

Her blue clothes were tattered and worn, revealing her delicate, fair skin with a rosy glow. It was early autumn, and the sweltering heat of summer hadn't completely dissipated. The morning breeze felt refreshingly cool against her skin.

Ning Rongrong's face flushed slightly.

I should change my clothes.

Ning Rongrong opened her spatial soul tool, and there happened to be another dress of the same style inside. So she ran back to the girls' dormitory, changed into the new dress, and threw the old one back into the spatial soul tool.

Stepping outside again, seeing her clothes intact, Ning Rongrong nodded and began trying to run again...

"Crench."
