Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

The name "Dragon" is familiar to every Chinese person.

It is not one of those winged, flame-breathing, greedy, and tyrannical four-legged lizard villains from abroad, but rather the leader of scaled creatures, the supreme ruler of the four seas, and the totem of China.

Therefore, the codename "Dragon" is naturally very popular among the Night Watch.

Of course, Wang Yi had never seen a dragon, nor did she know whether dragons actually existed.

Even among magical beasts, no dragon-shaped magical beasts have been seen so far.

The only thing associated with dragons is the so-called earthworm.

But at most it's just a magical earthworm that's eaten too much growth hormone and is extremely large.

When Wang Yi suggested using "Dragon" as a code name, Chen Guang gave an affirmative answer: "Of course."

Then Chen Guang took out his phone, opened the internal software to check, and then said, "If you set your code name as 'Dragon,' then you will be Dragon 1023 from now on."

"What do you mean? I'm the 1023rd dragon?" Wang Yi's eyes widened in surprise.

Do you make a lot of "dragons"?

One thousand and twenty-three is not good. It's better to wait until another dragon appears and is called Dragon 1024, which can make it a round number.

"Yes, because too many Night Watch soldiers like to use 'Dragon' as their codename, so yours is now Dragon 1023. If you're not satisfied, then change your codename. I think we can go with what you said before, 'Free-Range Chicken'."

Chen Guang chuckled and commented, "The nicknames 'Descending Tiger' and 'Crossing River Dragon' sound more like bandit nicknames, which are inappropriate. 'Free-range Chicken' is much better. It's a rural free-range chicken, very down-to-earth, sounds good, and tastes good."

Wang Yi was speechless. He had just said it casually without thinking; how could he actually use that code name?

The other Night Watch soldiers have code names like dragons, phoenixes, owls, eagles, geese, or at the very least snakes, insects, rats, ants, and spiders. But when it comes to us, we're called free-range chickens.

Putting aside whether it sounds good or bad, the art style itself is wrong, making the person seem unserious.

What if this sets a bad precedent and leads to a distorted portrayal of the Night Watch?

Wang Yi came to join the Night Watch, not to split it apart.

"What was the code name of that tree-man uncle just now?" Wang Yi asked curiously.

"His former codename was Dragon 328, and his current codename is Hidden Dragon."

"If we've chosen 'Dragon' as our codename, does that mean we can only choose from dragons when we become high-level mages?"

"Generally speaking, yes, but that's because the code names are chosen by the users themselves, and they'll definitely keep using the ones they like. Of course, if they want to change to other names later, it's not impossible as long as the conditions are met."

"High-ranking mages all have their own unique code names. Won't there be enough names? What if there aren't enough? Do you add numbers after them?"

"Generally speaking, no. There aren't that many high-level mages, so they'll avoid using the same codename. Besides, apart from the 'Dragon' path being a bit crowded, the other paths are quite wide, and there aren't many restrictions on codenames. For example, if you want, you can call yourself 'Ground Chicken,' and when you become a high-level mage, you can just call yourself Ground Chicken, saving you the trouble of thinking of a codename again."

"So, do we have internal factions? For example, the Dragon faction? The Eagle faction? The Dove faction? The Owl faction?"

"We are the military, and the military only has one voice. Everyone has different tasks, and there are no so-called factions. You need to understand that a code name is just a pseudonym. The purpose of this pseudonym is only to hide your real name. In fact, it has nothing to do with Wang Yi, Zhao Er, Zhang San, or Li Si."

Therefore, a dragon might work under a rabbit, and a rat might be a cat's superior. It's not that someone codenamed "Dragon" is necessarily powerful, but rather that powerful people can choose their own unique codenames, and among these, "Dragon" is quite popular.

Wang Yi nodded to indicate that she understood, but felt that she had been subtly implied.

Who are you talking about, Wang Yi?

"So, free-range chicken, if you have no objections, I'll report it to the authorities for you." Chen Guang picked up his phone and shook it twice, reminding Wang Yi that if there were no objections, then it would be a pleasant decision.

Wang Yi naturally had an opinion and hurriedly stopped Chen Guang: "Forget it, forget it, 'free-range chicken' is really not suitable. How about a single character? Let's call it Dragon... no, I choose Owl."

Wang Yi suddenly realized that there was a ready-made example in front of him. Since he wasn't particularly picky about codenames, he might as well just pick up someone else's leftovers.

Besides, Chen Guang's code name is Shen Xiao. If he also chooses Xiao, shouldn't Chen Guang take care of him a little more?

Although there are no factions within the Night's Watch, those who are all owls will naturally feel closer to each other.

This is a major general; it's not intimidating to try and get on his good side.

"Your intentions are too obvious, but ultimately it's your decision about the codename." Chen Guang naturally understood Wang Yi's little scheme to get closer to him, and coincidentally, this suited his purposes perfectly.

Chen Guang picked up his phone to cover the slightly upturned corners of his mouth, pretended to search for something, and then said, "Your codename is 'Xiao 11,' no problem, that's settled."

"Owl Eleven? That's good, no problem." This codename reminded Wang Yi of a notorious thief.

Once the code name was determined, Chen Guang registered Wang Yi and recorded it: "From now on, Xiao 11 will be your code name. When you become a high-level mage, you can change it to a two-character exclusive code name."

Wang Yi nodded to indicate that he understood.

Wang Yi was unaware that he had actually been tricked by Chen Guang.

As an intern, Wang Yi was neither a full-time employee nor a member of the Night Watch Army. How could he possibly need a code name unique to the Night Watch Army?

It's worth noting that even the Night Watch's field agents don't have code names.

With this code name, even if Wang Yi does not choose the Night Watch in the future, he will still have an inseparable relationship with the Night Watch.

Wang Yi didn't ask about this, so Chen Guang didn't mention it either.

Although Chen Guang's name contains the character for "light," it doesn't stop him from using some underhanded tricks.

Anyway, he's going to take Wang Yi.

Even if I don't end up with Wang Yi, I still have to put my mark on him.

What's more, it was stamped with the seal of "Owl".

Having settled on a specific code name, Wang Yi turned his attention back to the creature that could transform into a tentacle monster, pondering how to find out this thousand-faced man.

Wang Yi then pointed to the tablet and asked, "When did this happen?"

"About an hour and a half ago." Since they were planning to take Wang Yi with them to resolve this matter, Chen Guang couldn't keep it a secret from Wang Yi:

"This incident occurred at one of the trading venues in the black market of Zhuchuan City. The transaction information for two Fire Phoenix Magic Crystals appeared here, which attracted the attention of the Night Watch Army. This video was taken by a Night Watch Army field agent who was lurking in the black market."

Based on the general intelligence from the field agents, it's speculated that this "plastic surgery monster," the one who absorbed flesh and blood to disguise himself, was likely double-crossing someone, stealing the Fire Phoenix Magic Crystal during the transaction because he didn't want to pay.

"Black market transactions in Zhuchuan City?" Wang Yi's expression remained unchanged, but his heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, the black market was full of undercover agents; it was riddled with holes long ago.

Fortunately, his ten magic crystals were insignificant, and Huang Longxi had already dealt with them.

If things had dragged on until now, even if we weren't double-crossed by this plastic surgery freak, we might have been wiped out by the Night Watch.

If the trail leads back to him, it will be really hard to explain.
