He lost the game again.
QQ rang, and a nasty-looking panda avatar popped up, with the id "Lao Tang".
Lao Tang: Humans don't have to use tanks when fighting Zerg. Korean masters don't use tanks either. This is a new technique I have learned recently!
Lao Tang: But brother, you play the Zerg very well. The only thing missing is the micro-control. Your combat awareness is still very good.
Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows, glanced at the gray avatar of the girl wearing a baseball cap, and replied to Lao Tang in boredom.
The guy opposite didn't seem to notice his perfunctory attitude and continued to chat about this and that with great interest.
The Chinese American who called himself Lao Tang seemed to be a very talkative guy. He obviously loved StarCraft very much and kept discussing newly developed tactics with Lu Mingfei.
He seemed very happy to win against Lu Mingfei, his tone was full of enthusiasm, and Lu Mingfei could even imagine how delighted that guy was.
The two of them met in an interstellar group and were called masters by others. Masters always compete with each other to see who is better. Then, for countless nights, they fought back and forth on the interstellar map and gradually became familiar with each other.
Lu Mingfei is an ordinary high school sophomore, while Lao Tang is making a living in the United States. According to him, he seems to be an unemployed vagrant.
When two bored people get together, they always try to find ways to kill time, so sometimes, in addition to interstellar space, they also talk about random and irrelevant things.
For example, now, Lao Tang is complaining that prices in the United States are too high.
Lao Tang: Brother, you really don’t know how hard it is to make a living in the United States. The food here is so bad and so expensive. I feel like I can’t survive on this.
Lu Mingfei replied lazily: Why not return to China? Although it seems that it is not easy to get along in China.
Old Tang: I have lived here for so many years, how can I just go back? Besides, I don’t have any friends or relatives if I go back, so I have to make do with what I have, alas.
Lu Mingfei also felt a little sympathy for this friend who seemed to be having a hard time in a foreign country. He felt that his situation was a bit similar. After all, they were all living under someone else’s roof, and if they didn’t do well, they would be kicked out.
So he said: What should I do? Do you want me to lend you some money?
Lao Tang immediately sent an emoticon of a touched cat head.
Old Tang: Brother, you are really kind, but you are still a student, right? How can I ask you for money? Forget it, I will find a job by myself.
Lao Tang: Speaking of which, it seems like there isn’t much good work to do recently. Let me tell you, I saw a fishing post today. It was a very simple job, and they said they would pay a large sum of money.
Lu Mingfei: Isn’t this a good thing?
Old Tang: Bullshit. This is obviously a scam. Who knows what they are going to do with you after they trick you into going there. You might even be sold to places like northern Myanmar and get money for nothing. Don’t be greedy for such small gains.
Lu Mingfei: Why does it sound so much like a scam text message?
Lao Tang: Almost. Anyway, I think it looks like a scam. I don’t know what kind of idiot would believe it. But if I get poorer, I’m about to believe this kind of scam text message. It’s so much money, so tempting.
Lu Mingfei smiled when he saw the message, and replied while typing on the keyboard: If it doesn’t work, just ask. What if you meet someone who is stupid and has a lot of money? Anyway, you can be cautious and make a phone call without worrying about being cheated.
Old Tang was silent for a while, then sent an emoticon of appreciation.
Lao Tang: You are right, brother. This person’s remarks seem quite stupid.
Lao Tang: Maybe I can really meet a sucker. I’ll ask him later. Let’s continue playing next time. It’s still more fun to play with you. The others are too new and don’t reflect my level.
Lu Mingfei: Okay.
Old Tang went offline triumphantly, and Lu Mingfei stuck out his tongue at the screen.
The only person he had been chatting with left, and he continued to while away his time in boredom, hoping that the baseball cap avatar would light up so that he could take the opportunity to say a few words.
Why bother? He sometimes told himself. Waiting like a fool for hours just to say a few words seemed not worth it.
But who can tell whether something like this is worth it?
The boy lay listlessly in front of the computer desk, closed his eyes and yawned.
At the same time, in the Sahara Desert on the other side of the earth, a girl in a black windbreaker jumped off a roaring helicopter. She wore huge black sunglasses on her face, held simple luggage in her hands, and carried a long baseball bag on her back.
The huge black helicopter slowly left, and the half-dead and half-green World Tree school emblem could be vaguely seen on the helicopter.
Yuan Zhinv took out a map from her luggage, identified the direction in the sunlight, and walked towards a village not far away.
This is the village closest to the Sahara Desert. Only a few people live in it. The houses are dilapidated and even a bit desolate, but it is a very important supply station before entering the desert.
After knowing what this mission was about from the simulator, Gen Chitose packed up and set off without much hesitation.
It’s not that she wanted to complete the school’s tasks very much, but it was mainly because it was always inconvenient to do something in the college. This desert was very good, with few people, and it was difficult for the college to monitor what was done.
Yuan Zhinv was not planning to go directly to find the so-called ancient tomb. She planned to stay in this village first, and then study how to lure the bounty hunter Dragon King over and have a good and friendly exchange with him.
After she gets rid of the dragon, she can decide whether to go to school to complete the mission or go back to the academy directly, it doesn’t matter.
For her, the most important thing in this desert trip is to ambush Norton and take the opportunity to wipe him out before the memory of the King of Bronze and Fire is restored, to see how much experience a first-generation species can gain.
This desert is very beautiful, with golden yellow sand all over the sky, which seems to be shining with brilliant golden light under the sun. Yuan Zhinv felt that such a beautiful scenery was very suitable for burying a noble first-generation species.
Among the currently known dragons, this one is the softest. After carefully comparing their strengths, Yuan Zhinv feels that she still has a good chance.
I just don’t know how her bloodline will be improved after killing this Dragon King. I guess it won’t be enough for a breakthrough. But it doesn’t matter. There are still many Dragon Kings and she can come one by one.
The only regrettable thing was that the fishing post she posted only attracted a bunch of small fish. The target she was expecting never showed up. I don’t know whether she didn’t see it or was just on guard.
But it's not a big problem. Yuan Zhinu has already made preparations for a war of attrition. If she can't catch the dragon, she won't return to the academy. Anyway, no one knows what she is doing in the desert. The network signal here is so poor that even Norma finds it difficult to monitor her.
Come to think of it, the principal really found a perfect place for her to commit murder and arson. Although it was just a coincidence, she couldn't help but admire his thoughtfulness.
Then her good mood instantly fell to the bottom when she entered the village and saw the young man in black standing at the village gate.
The boy wore black contact lenses, hiding his terrifying golden pupils. His black hair had grown a little longer, vaguely covering his eyebrows and eyes. He stood there with his head lowered, looking like a silent and cold stone sculpture.
When he heard the noise, he looked up and his expression changed noticeably when he saw Genjitsu.
Before the girl could ask, Chu Zihang took the initiative to say, "I'm sorry, I heard from Susie that you were going on a mission, so I went to find Professor Schneider and asked to go with you. I knew you wouldn't agree, so I didn't tell you."
Genji: "...You've already said all the words, what can I say?"
Yuan Zhinv was in a great headache. She looked at the boy in front of her in confusion: "What on earth do you want to do? I thought we didn't owe each other anything."
Logically speaking, this boy shouldn't be the type to cling to her. His previous little actions could be understood as wanting to use her to defeat Caesar. Now he's chasing her to the desert. What does he want to do?
Please, she came to the desert to slay a dragon, and the opponent she faced was a noble Dragon King. Although he had not yet awakened, there was no guarantee that something unexpected would happen at the critical moment of life and death. Such a secret matter was certainly not convenient for a third person to know.
Chu Zihang did not argue, but lowered his head and said softly: "I have a lot of things I want to ask you."
"Can you leave after asking?" Yuan Zhinv replied with a headache: "Ask, ask. I really owe you."
"How do you know where Odin's Nibelung is? You said you can read minds, but I don't even know the exact location myself. And..."
At this point, the boy's voice became hoarse: "My father...is he still alive?"
Yuan Zhinu sighed softly, and she knew it.
The only thing that makes this young man so persistent and unwilling to give up is his obsession with his father.
But the problem is that she doesn't know either.
I have been living here for too long, and I can no longer remember many details of the original work. I only remember that the genius character seemed to have become Odin's puppet, and I have no idea whether he is dead or alive.
Facing the boy's expectant gaze, Gen Chinuo really couldn't say anything harsh. When she was still in Japan, Sakurai Kogure often said that she was soft-hearted and would not respond to tough calls, and she always sneered at this.
But when someone forces her, her reaction will be more intense than ever, and she will never give in even if they both die.
So when Chu Zihang was playing tricks on her, she would ignore the little affection and take action directly. But now the boy looked fragile, like a fragile clay doll in a rainstorm that could be washed away at any time, and she really couldn't blame him anymore.
She could only tell the truth.
"I don't know if your father is still alive, but he was definitely killed by Odin. I can tell you clearly that Odin is a dragon king, and if nothing unexpected happens, you can't defeat him and you can't take revenge. Going to him now would just be courting death."
She looked directly into the boy's eyes and spoke word by word, "You have mastered the forbidden secret technique and have embarked on the road of evolution. I don't know what your future will be like, but young man, don't be impatient. There will always be a chance."
"The truth will be revealed, and the enemy will be killed, but you'll need some time. Don't push yourself too hard, unless you want to become like me."
Yuan Zhinv shrugged indifferently, with a hint of self-mockery on her face: "They all say I'm crazy, and sometimes I feel that way too."
Chu Zihang looked at the girl in front of him in silence, with a complex emotion inexplicably welling up in his heart. He subconsciously wanted to speak, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by a rapid ring.
Yuan Zhinu fumbled for her cell phone, and after seeing the incoming call, her expression could even be described as surprise. Chu Zihang had never seen her look like this before. It was like an ordinary girl receiving a gift she liked.
"Oh, yes, it's the task I posted. What's your name? Oh! Old Tang, right? Ok, ok, no problem. It's urgent for me. Let's chat privately for the details. I'll give you the location where I lost the knife and the detailed information. You must help me find it."
Chu Zihang frowned in confusion. He glanced at the baseball bag on the girl's back and asked after Yuan Zhinu hung up the phone, "Did you lose your knife?"
Yuan Zhinv nodded: "Yes."
Chu Zihang was a little surprised. He was very impressed by the blood-red sword. It seemed to be made with top-level alchemical craftsmanship and could even kill the dead servants easily. It would be a pity if it was lost.
So he couldn't help but ask: "When was it lost? Where was it lost?"
Then he saw the girl in front of him throw the baseball bag on her back to him, holding the phone and saying casually: "Here, it's lost now."
Chu Zihang: “?”
Chu Zihang: "..."
Chapter 75 My brother is not smart
Gen Chinu thought she might have caught a dragon.
As far as I can remember, before Norton recovered his memory, his ID seemed to be Lao Tang. He was a Chinese American. No one knew where he lived in the United States. He was doing some easy and hard work in the hunter market.
As for the guy she was chatting privately with on the Hunter website, although all other information was hidden, his ID was clearly Lao Tang.
Stable.
Yuan Zhinu thought to herself, she suppressed her excitement and took the initiative to send a message to the other party.
Fengjian Liuli: Hello, would you like to accept the mission?
The other party seemed to be offline, and it took a long time before he replied, "I want to know."
His attitude was quite cautious, and he seemed unwilling to take the initiative to reveal his information. Gen Chinu waited for a long time but nothing came of his next sentence, so she had to take the initiative.
Fengjian Liuli: My knife was lost in the Sahara Desert. As long as you help me find my knife, I will give you a commission immediately.
Lao Tang: Where did you lose your knife? How did you lose it? What does it look like? Do you have a photo? Please give me the details.
Yuan Zhinv frowned as she read the news. This hybrid who was suspected to be the Dragon King was quite cautious. It seemed that he would disappear as long as Yuan Zhinv didn't explain things in detail or there was any ambiguity.
Yuan Zhinv has also learned about this Hunter Network in the past few days. Because it is so old, the source of the website can no longer be found, and the technology is very complicated. If a person disappears on his own initiative here, it is difficult to find clues. Even Norma can't overcome it.
This site doesn't even have a search button.
It seems that I have to keep this guy steady, otherwise if he runs away, it will be difficult to find him next time.
Yuan Zhinu thought and typed carefully.
Ruri Kazama: When I was traveling in the Sahara, my knife was stolen by a thief.
Kazama Ruri: My sword is red, looks very valuable and eye-catching, which is probably why it was stolen.
Ruri Kazama: As for the thief's appearance, she was a girl in her twenties, quite tall, with black hair and black eyes. She seemed to be familiar with the surrounding environment and should be a local. She should not have used the knife in such a short time.
Fengjian Liuli: I need you to go to the Sahara Desert to find this girl and steal my knife back. As long as you find the girl and send me a photo for confirmation, I will pay you a deposit, and once the knife is stolen, I will transfer the full amount immediately.
Lao Tang: Let me think about it.
Ruri Kazama: Okay, but I hope you can make a decision sooner. I’m in a hurry.
The other party was silent for a long time again, but Yuan Zhinu had to wait patiently. While she and Chu Zihang were walking towards the village, she kept an eye on her cell phone and at the same time was thinking about how to get rid of Chu Zihang.
The simulator said that this Lord Dragon King was very cautious and had a keen insight into danger. If there was too much noise here, he would most likely flee.
And Chu Zihang... this killer always makes more noise than ever when he goes on a mission, and every time he makes a mess that cannot be cleared up, so he cannot be allowed to stay. Not only can he not be of any help, he may even cause more trouble.
But how can I convince him? If it doesn't work, I can just knock him out and throw him away, Yuan Zhinv thought.
What she didn't know was that a transatlantic video call was connecting at this moment.
In the small and messy room, Lu Mingfei put on a headset and answered the video call from Lao Tang.
A funny-looking guy with hunched eyebrows appeared in the window. He waved at Lu Mingfei and shouted in a voice as loud as thunder: "Hey! Brother!"
Lu Mingfei's ears were almost deafened by the explosion, and he quickly moved the headset further away, saying, "Wow, keep your voice down!"
"What's the big deal?" Old Tang muttered, "The house I rent is close to the light rail line, so the noise is quite loud. Where are you? Why are you being so cautious?"
"I'm staying at my uncle and aunt's house." Lu Mingfei whispered, "What's the matter? You called me out of nowhere."
"Oh, nothing." Old Tang nodded and lowered his voice, speaking in off-tune Chinese: "Brother, do you remember the job I told you about last time that was very profitable but very much like a scam?"
Lu Mingfei nodded: "Didn't I ask you to ask? If you find someone who is a sucker, you will win."
