World Suppression

Bathroom

Just as Jiang Hou was recalling everything that had happened today, a girl's voice came from outside, "Jiang Hou, are you in there?"

"Yes, it's me." Jiang Hou snapped out of his thoughts and responded.

Outside the bathroom stood a girl wearing pink pajamas.

The girl had a fair and slightly round face, picturesque eyebrows and eyes, and a delicate nose, making her look very beautiful, especially her beautiful blue eyes, which shone like sapphires under the light.

However, the girl frowned slightly at this moment, "Why did you come back so late? It's past ten o'clock. Didn't you say you were just going for a walk in the park?"

"Cough!... Well, I fell asleep on the chair." Jiang Hou made an excuse.

"You can fall asleep on a park bench? Be careful not to catch a cold."

"Yeah, I won't next time."

"Okay, it's good that you're okay. Go to bed early after washing up..."

"Okay."

Hearing the sound of the door closing outside, a gentle look appeared in Jiang Hou's eyes.

The girl just now was Qin Siyu, the daughter of the owner of this house, Qin Buyi. As for Jiang Hou, he was considered Qin Buyi's adopted son.

When he was seven years old, Jiang Hou's family had a car accident while traveling. His parents and grandfather all died in the accident, leaving him, a child of only a few years old, an orphan.

Although relatives helped with the funeral arrangements, no one was willing to raise a burden.

In the end, Qin Buyi, who knew about this, drove over from the neighboring province, found Jiang Hou, and adopted him as a comrade-in-arms of his father.

In addition to him, Qin Buyi's family also had a daughter who was one month younger than Jiang Hou.

As for Qin Buyi's wife, it was said that she was from another country and returned home for some reason when Qin Siyu was very young, and never came back.

And just like that, the three formed a new family.

Fortunately, Qin Buyi had a good job as a security captain at a mine, and his monthly income was enough to cover the family expenses, so he managed to raise the two of them to such an age.

Moreover, Qin Siyu didn't reject the suddenly appearing Jiang Hou, and the two had a very good relationship since childhood.

It was just that after entering high school, this girl would occasionally nag.

Saying that he only knew how to stay at home all day long, didn't care about his image, and didn't cut his hair when it got long, no wonder he couldn't find a girlfriend even in his third year of high school.

Jiang Hou just smiled at these things every time and didn't care.

The mind of an adult made Jiang Hou out of place with his surroundings from infancy, and after growing up a little, he couldn't play with the 'peers' around him.

There was no way, the things those children played with were too childish in his eyes.

Including behavior and way of speaking, they were not on the same wavelength at all.

As for using the advantages of a transmigrator to gradually manage and get rich from a young age, these were just things to think about.

This was not Earth, and he was not reborn twenty years ago, without the advantage of foresight, how could he get started in a place where he was unfamiliar?

And if a person's behavior and way of thinking exceed the appropriate age, it will seem strange in the eyes of the people around him and be given too much attention.

It's like an elementary school student constantly spouting life's reflections that only adults should have, which always feels strange.

Therefore, Jiang Hou seemed out of place since he was a child, with a silent personality and few friends. He only talked more when facing Qin Siyu and Qin Buyi.

Of course, that silent personality was just how others saw him.

Having experienced death, coupled with his childhood family changes, Jiang Hou's personality was somewhat indifferent, taking many people and things lightly, and not interested in them.

As long as he felt comfortable.

Lost in thought, Jiang Hou turned off the shower, picked up a towel and began to dry his hair, his gaze falling on the mirror as he wiped.

In the mirror, the young man's hair was messy and wet, his figure was tall and straight, and there were obvious muscle bulges on his arms and chest, especially the six-pack abs.

Even Jiang Hou had to admit that he looked very stylish in the mirror.

But before tonight, he was actually just an ordinary high school student with a somewhat delicate appearance, with a few pimples on his face that were typical for his age.

Although he was 1.78 meters tall, he was somewhat thin due to lack of exercise.

But now, he felt that his height should have reached 1.8 meters! "Handsome!" Jiang Hou praised narcissistically, raised his arm and struck a bodybuilding pose, then dried his hair, and went out to get dressed.

At this time, Qin Siyu had already returned to her room, but Jiang Hou knew she definitely hadn't slept yet and was playing on her phone.

With the popularity of smartphones, the Internet has integrated into all aspects of people's lives, such as games, entertainment, social interaction, and life, making everyone inseparable from it.

Jiang Hou shook his head, turned off the corridor lights, and returned to his room.

Qin Buyi's workplace was a bit far, and it took several hours to drive back and forth. Since Qin Siyu entered high school, he had been living at the company and only came back on Sundays.

Therefore, usually only the two of them were at home.

Back in his room, Jiang Hou lay on the bed and looked at the back of his left hand.

The black mark also shrunk synchronously when he returned to human form, about ten centimeters long and five centimeters wide, covering most of the back of his hand, which was a bit conspicuous.

"This thing needs to be covered up." Jiang Hou thought thoughtfully.

He entered the Ruins because of that black fog, and his ability to enter meant that others could also enter, and perhaps many people had already entered.

Moreover, after returning, Jiang Hou felt an invisible suppression. The powerful suppression directly forced him from the Black Giant Ape form back to human form.

Although he felt that he could forcibly transform into a giant beast, the 'stamina' consumption would be terrifying.

In this case, Jiang Hou could not easily use the trump card of transforming into a giant beast. With only a physique equivalent to two or three times that of an ordinary person, a pistol could kill him.

However, this suppression force did not seem to affect his physique, but only targeted supernatural powers, which was good news for Jiang Hou.

When the giant beast form continues to grow in the future, and the size exceeds hundreds of meters, the various attributes of the human form will also be improved to an amazing level.

When the movement speed is faster than the speed of sound, and the power is so strong that he can blow up a building with one punch, he doesn't have to worry about safety issues.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Jiang Hou's face.

Of course, these are just things to think about for now. The Ruins are not a paradise, but a hell. Those monsters and beasts will not stand there and let him kill them.

Maybe the next time he goes in, he will encounter a terrifying creature and be instantly killed by it.

After thinking wildly for a while, Jiang Hou took out his phone, opened the video software, and after a little thought, entered "Strange events across the country" in the search box.

Instantly, a bunch of videos related to the title appeared.

[A cultivator braves the tribulation in the rain, taking heavenly lightning head-on without injury]

[A mysterious creature appears in the Qingshan River, suspected to be a legendary water monster]

[Dense fog spreads, many people have seen the figure of a giant creature]

[A Titan Python corpse appears, its body length reaching an astonishing twenty-seven meters, exceeding the world record]

[A review of the top ten mysterious creatures of the last few years...] The titles of these videos are all exaggerated, as if there really are so many mystical creatures and cultivators.

But when Jiang Hou clicked into the videos, he could clearly see the PS traces in those monster pictures, including the tribulation transcendence, which was also photoshopped.

Scrolling and scrolling, Jiang Hou didn't even know when he fell asleep.

It wasn't until the next morning that a sudden knock on the door woke him up.

"Jiang Hou, wake up."

Woken up, Jiang Hou opened his eyes, staring blankly at the ceiling for a moment before reacting.

"Coming."
