Dragon Raja's Number One Player

........................

How heavy is a beam of light?

How fast can a beam of light travel?

Lin Zhiying was unaware of the former, while the latter's speed was 299792458 meters per second.

The assassin fired the bullet, but he fell even faster.

Because he was facing the light, Henri's divine pronouncement, "Sacred Judgment"!

"Time Zero" can make time stand still, but it cannot stop the light from falling.

It's no wonder that Henkel could deal with Angers as an old rival, considering that Angers' Word of Power is "Time Zero".

On the other side, without the blessing of the killer's words, the three bullets were noticeably slower.

Even after the assassin died, these weapons continued to carry out his orders.

When they were only three meters away from Lin Zhiying, their speed decreased again.

The kinetic energy applied to the bullet was not reduced; only the time was extended tenfold.

UI.

Only those who can dodge bullets can be considered masters!

Lin Zhiying is going to take on this challenge here today!

The next moment, the same beam of light flashed, and the three bullets were instantly knocked to the ground.

Henkel, standing next to him, blew on the muzzle of his revolver and shrugged at him.

"Protecting every guest who comes to the auction house is our duty."

Lin Zhiying breathed a sigh of relief. He had tried his best to dodge the bullets, but he felt that he might still die.

"This old man still has some redeeming qualities," he thought.

Then he heard the pleasant notification sound from the system.

[Ding! Player has completed the mission "Assassination"]

[Quest Rewards: 50,000 Experience Points, 1 Legendary Reputation Point]

The experience bar, which hadn't been touched for a long time, surged again, bringing Lin Zhiying's level to 16.

Although Caesar was a beat slower, he had already reacted.

Assassination!

Seeing that Lin Zhiying was alright, he was finally relieved.

They attempted to assassinate a friend of the Gattuso family right in front of him.

This isn't just trying to kill Lin Zhiying, it's practically slapping Caesar in the face!

If this gets out, where will the Gattuso family's reputation be? Won't all their allies and partners be in a state of panic?

Caesar felt a chill run down his spine at the thought.

However, he still had a way to salvage the situation; although the assassin was dead, he still had accomplices.

With this in mind, Caesar grabbed Old Tang, who was crawling on the ground like a pupa and trying to escape in the chaos.

"Have mercy, sir! Have mercy, sir! I'm truly not on his side!"

When he was caught, Lao Tang readily surrendered by raising his hands.

There is an old Chinese saying: "Those who understand the times are heroes."

With so many people around, he definitely couldn't beat them all, so he might as well just confess.

Stealing a piece of jewelry and making 10 yuan? Why risk your life like that!

I'm a hunter, not an assassin.

Old Tang has always been very aware of his own abilities.

No matter how high the price offered on the hunter's website for a kill, he never accepts it.

You can earn money, but you also need to be alive to spend it. What if you make enemies during a mission?

What if they come looking for you later, shouting "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river"?

Fearing Caesar wouldn't believe him, Old Tang continued frankly:

"I came here to steal the necklace; I'm really not with him."

"The necklace was in the pocket inside my clothes."

Even though the entrustment has failed, saving one's life is more important right now.

"Who knows if you're hiding a bomb or a necklace in your clothes? Get him under control."

Caesar gave a cold laugh and said.

Upon hearing this, Yi Daochuanshui and Shoushu Wuci immediately volunteered to run over and each of them held him on one side.

"Pah, you shifty-eyed wretch! I can tell at a glance you're not a good person!"

"One cut cuts water," he said fiercely.

You need to know who Lin Zhiying is.

That's his right-hand man, the man who could become his cyber godfather.

Cut off his thigh? Kill his adoptive father?

You have already chosen your own path to death!

No wonder he was so angry.

Old Tang was pinned down with his hands behind his back, feeling like crying but having no tears left. He was now in a situation where he couldn't clear his name no matter what he did.

Just as he was feeling utterly hopeless, he passed by Lin Zhiying.

Lin Zhiying suddenly called out to the two of them.

"etc."

Lin Zhiying stared at Old Tang's face for a while, and the more she looked, the more alarmed she became.

Holy crap! Isn't this the world boss from version 2.0, Old Tang, also known as Dragon King Norton?

Where the hell did I come from? Is this still City A, the newbie village?!

Caesar wasn't wrong; this kid does indeed have a bomb on him. Once "Word of Power: Rhine" is triggered, leveling the auction house would be the least of his worries.

This is equivalent to dropping a "little boy" directly in the center of City A!

"Brother, I'm really not on his side."

Old Tang looked at Lin Zhiying sincerely, and hope rekindled in his eyes.

Did my older brother ask you? If he did, then you can answer!

After saying "cutting water with a single stroke," he aimed at Old Tang's stomach and delivered two rabid punches.

They beat Old Tang so badly he was vomiting acid.

Lin Zhiying, who was standing next to him, was completely stunned.

Do you know that those two moves of yours almost brought the Dragon Raja 1 to an early end?

In my previous life, the combined damage the entire "Gate of Truth" guild dealt to "King of Bronze and Fire" Norton probably didn't even amount to the damage from those two punches you threw!

"So you're a hunter?"

On the surface, Lin Zhiying still tried to remain calm and spoke.

"Hmm... yes."

Old Tang suppressed the urge to vomit and replied.

After a moment's thought, Lin Zhiying slowly said, "Then let him go first."

"You bastard, you've upset our boss!"

Just as Yi Daoduanshui finished speaking, he raised his fist again, and Lin Zhiying quickly stepped forward to stop him.

Don't upset him, or we'll all end up becoming acquaintances!

[Ding! "Old Tang's" favorability towards you has increased by 10 points!]

Old Tang, now freed, looked at Lin Zhiying with gratitude, almost bursting into tears.

He moved a little further away from the knife-cutting water technique, still somewhat frightened.

That's too cruel. He used to touch himself all the time, and now he's hurting himself so badly.

Isn't that utterly perverted?!

Then he took out a pearl necklace from his inner pocket and respectfully handed it to Lin Zhiying.

"Look, is this real?"

Lin Zhiying handed the necklace to Han Gao.

He said something on the walkie-talkie, and soon the appraiser arrived and received an affirmative answer from him.

Hearing the affirmative answer, Old Tang breathed a sigh of relief.

If the appraiser were to say, "This item is fake," he himself would be in a real predicament.

"How much is the commission for this trip?"

Lin Zhiying looked Old Tang up and down and then asked a question.

He was somewhat curious about this.

Before becoming Dragon King Norton, Old Tang was one of the top hunters on the Hunter website.

10.

Old Tang was initially puzzled by this question, but then he immediately understood.

This is directed at himself!

This person just survived an assassination attempt; shouldn't they receive some compensation for emotional distress?

The assassin is now lying there, his fate unknown.

That means he's dead.

Isn't this the time for me to show my skills?

Thinking he understood Lin Zhiying's meaning, Old Tang patted his chest and spoke without saying a word:

"I am willing to pay 10 yuan in compensation for the emotional distress you suffered this time, sir. Is that enough for you?"

After speaking, Old Tang turned his gaze to Lin Zhiying's face, observing his expression.

"hiss……"

Lin Zhiying gasped.

No, I didn't say anything, so why am I suddenly getting money from them?

Seeing Lin Zhiying's reaction, Lao Tang assumed he was dissatisfied with his price and immediately raised it.

"20, I'll offer 20 as compensation."

Lin Zhiying was somewhat amused and exasperated. He suspected that if he disagreed, Old Tang might just keep raising the price.

If it were someone else, he probably would have just accepted the money.

But for Lao Tang, he might be able to convert the money into other benefits.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Zhiying spoke:

"I understand what you mean, but I can't take this money. You work in this line of work, risking your life, and every penny you earn is hard-earned!"

This, this, this... saved me, and even felt sorry for me.

That's so kind and righteous!

Old Tang's eyes were filled with tears, and he felt as if Lin Zhiying was surrounded by a halo.
