North American wizards, starting as cooks, roam freely and without fear.

Upon arriving at the agreed-upon music restaurant location.

It had already gotten dark.

After parking his car, Li Heng walked into the restaurant. Led by a waiter, he entered the spacious hall and saw Dorothy taking orders at a table in a dimly lit, inconspicuous spot not far from the stage.

She was still wearing a rather conservative, fitted woolen long-sleeved shirt today, but this time it was black, only it was beige last time. It covered her chest completely, but it also highlighted the huge outline of her breasts, making them look incredibly full and alluring.

With her black hair, black eyes, delicate and aloof face, bright red lips, and stunningly fair skin, she was still the focus of the entire restaurant, even though she was sitting in an inconspicuous spot in the lobby, attracting the attention of many men.

Just then.

Suddenly, a handsome young blond Caucasian man stood up, straightened his well-fitting clothes, and walked towards the table.

Watching this scene from afar.

Just as Li Heng was about to step forward, a slight smile appeared on his lips. He then stopped, turned around, and walked towards the bar. He ordered two drinks from the bartender and, while waiting, turned to look at the corner. He saw that the handsome white young man had already walked to the table and was chatting with Dorothy.

However, Dorothy only wore a polite smile, her face clearly showing her refusal.

Li Heng raised the corners of his mouth again, took the two glasses of wine, and saw that the white man seemed unwilling to give up and was still saying something.

He didn't rush over. He turned around and saw a girl selling flowers in the restaurant. He waved to her, and the girl walked over quickly with a happy expression. He bought a bright red rose, paid for it, and took the rose. But the rose disappeared the moment he took it, which made the little flower girl's eyes widen immediately.

Li Heng didn't explain, picked up the two glasses of wine again and turned around, only to see that the handsome young white man was still pestering her, while Dorothy's fair and cold face was devoid of even a polite smile, and she was looking at the other party with an icy expression.

Li Heng approached unhurriedly, holding a wine glass.

He didn't mind Dorothy being approached by people because it wouldn't make a difference. Just like himself, his physical appearance was so outstanding that it was perfectly normal for him to be approached, which also demonstrated his charm.

But if anyone dares to be rude and cause trouble, he won't be polite, and violence is the best and fastest way to deal with such people.

He slowly approached...

"Hi..."

Just then, a short-haired, chestnut-brown white woman walked up to him and greeted him with a bright smile: "I'm Foster, may I get to know you?"

Because the girl was not far from the corner table where Dorothy was, her words immediately attracted the attention of those around her. After all, handsome men and beautiful women can attract attention wherever they go.

At the corner dining table.

Dorothy, who had just bluntly rejected the white man's advances, turned around upon hearing the voice and saw the man she was waiting for being approached by a girl not far away.

Just like she had just done.

However, she wasn't as magnanimous as Li Heng. Upon seeing this, she immediately stood up, strode forward, and hugged Li Heng, who was holding a wine glass in both hands, warmly saying, "Darling, you've finally arrived!"

Seeing this, Li Heng could only shrug at the short-haired girl who had approached him. Without saying a word, the girl immediately turned and left.

The surrounding men, seeing that the stunningly beautiful woman was actually the woman of an Asian man, felt extremely jealous and resentful, their defenses crumbling. This was especially true for the blond white youth who had recently failed to pick up the Asian guy; he simply couldn't understand what he lacked compared to the Asian boy!

He waited for a while, but no race knight came to teach the Asian boy a lesson, and he himself didn't dare to be the one to stand up for him.

"Heng..."

After sitting down at the table, Dorothy, having taken her wine glass, immediately looked at Li Heng and smiled, "Did you see that man hitting on me just now?"

Because Li Heng had taken precautions against Dorothy when they first met, she only knew him by the name "Heng," not Li Heng.

Later, when Dorothy learned his name, she didn't want to change it. She didn't want to call him Li like everyone else; she wanted to be unique.

"Um..."

Li Heng smiled and nodded, then put down his wine glass to indicate that his hands were empty. He then rubbed his hands together and produced a bright red rose from his palms, which he handed to her, making Dorothy beam with delight and her eyes sparkling with affection.

After flirting like a couple for a while, the waiter brought out some snacks and food.

Dorothy took a sip of her drink and then said, "Heng, you've been thinking about this for a while now. So, how about joining my team?"

"Has I taken too little time to consider this?"

Upon hearing this, Li Heng paused, his glass of wine twitching slightly before he smiled and asked, "I haven't asked you yet, how many people are in your team? And who's the team leader?"

After spending these days surfing the "New World" website intensively, he now understands what the team is all about, and has a general understanding of its good and bad aspects.

The advantage is that with more people, there is more power, and the more difficult and diverse the bounty commissions can be taken on. As long as you don't pick and choose, you will basically not lack bounties.

The downsides are naturally a lack of freedom and the fact that the bounty needs to be shared among everyone, but the latter can be addressed by taking on more bounty missions.

Overall, the biggest drawback is the lack of freedom.

For newcomers like Li Heng, whose cultivation level is not high and who have only recently come into contact with the extraordinary world, joining the team is actually a very good choice.

Of course, this is on the premise that you haven't joined the wrong team.

After all, having a team makes things much easier, whether it's bounty missions or facing danger.

If you're playing solo, the options for accepting bounty missions are very limited, and the risks are greater. Basically, aside from the freedom, everything else is a disadvantage.

It can be said that it is best for a newcomer like Li Heng to join the team.

Just like the "exorcising evil spirits" commission that Li Heng just completed during the day, if it weren't for his strong strength, if it were an ordinary B-level superhuman, the difficulty would increase dramatically when encountering two evil spirits instead of one, and he would very likely fail.

However, having a team significantly reduces the chances of things going wrong.

"Our team now consists of four people, including myself..."

Upon hearing Li Heng's question, Dorothy laughed and said, "With you, that makes five. Three of them are vampires, and one is a werewolf. We just happen to be missing a wizard, so your joining isn't entirely because of me. It's just that the team happens to need a wizard..."

"As for our captain, his name is Gerald. He's from the same clan as me and is an A-level expert. The other team members are all B-level..."

"How is it?"

This configuration was pretty much what Li Heng had imagined. He nodded and said, "Let me think about it some more..."

It wasn't that he didn't want to join the team, but rather that he didn't want to join too quickly. He wanted to learn more about this extraordinary world, after all, he had quite a few secrets about him.

Dorothy laughed upon hearing this, "I would like to give you more time to think it over, but the captain just accepted a bounty, and the reward is quite substantial. After completing this mission, we will take our usual six-month break, and we won't be able to accept another bounty for another six months..."

Li Heng remained silent for a while before asking, "When will this bounty begin?"

Dorothy: "Twenty days later."

Li Heng finally nodded: "Okay, I'll give it a try..."
