Dragon Raja: Starting with acquiring Orochi, a counterattack against the gods.

Yuan Zhinu shrugged indifferently, a self-deprecating smile appearing on her face: "They all say I'm crazy, and sometimes I feel that way too."

Chu Zihang stared silently at the girl in front of him, a complex emotion welling up inside him. He instinctively wanted to speak, but before he could utter a word, he was interrupted by a rapid ringing of a bell.

Yuan Zhinu frantically pulled out her phone, and when she saw the caller ID, her expression was one of surprise and delight. Chu Zihang had never seen her like this before; she looked like an ordinary girl who had received a gift she had longed for.

"Oh right, it's the task I posted. What's your surname? Oh! Old Tang, right? Okay, okay, no problem. Yes, it's urgent. Let's discuss the details privately. I'll give you the location where I lost my knife and the detailed information. You absolutely have to help me find it."

Chu Zihang frowned in confusion. His gaze swept over the baseball bag on the girl's back, and after Yuan Zhinv hung up the phone, he asked, "Did you lose your knife?"

Yuan Zhinv nodded: "Yes."

Chu Zihang was somewhat surprised. He had a deep impression of that blood-red demon sword. It seemed to be made with top-notch alchemy and could easily kill servants. It would be a great pity to lose it.

So he couldn't help but ask, "When did you lose it? Where did you lose it?"

Then he saw the girl in front of him toss the baseball bag off her back to him, casually saying while holding her phone, "Here, it's gone now."

Chu Zihang: "?"

Chu Zihang: "..."

Chapter 75 My younger brother isn't very bright

Yuan Zhinü felt that she might have caught a dragon.

Before Norton regained his memories, his ID seemed to be Old Tang. He was an American of Chinese descent, and I don't know where he lived in the United States. He did some hard work in the hunter market that wasn't very difficult.

The guy she's currently chatting with privately on the Hunter website, although all other information is hidden, has the ID Old Tang.

Stable.

Yuan Zhinu suppressed her excitement and took the initiative to send a message to the other party.

Kazama Ruri: Hello, would you like to accept a mission?

The other party seemed to be offline, and it took quite a while before they replied with "Would like to know more".

His demeanor was quite cautious, seemingly unwilling to reveal his information. After waiting for a long time without hearing the next sentence, Yuan Zhinv had no choice but to take the initiative.

Kazama Ruri: I lost my sword in the Sahara Desert. If you help me find my sword, I will immediately pay you a commission.

Old Tang: Where did you lose your knife? How did you lose it? What did it look like? Do you have a photo? Please provide these details.

Yuan Zhinü frowned as she read the message. This half-blood who was suspected to be the Dragon King was quite cautious. It seemed that if Yuan Zhinü's words were not detailed enough or there was any ambiguity, she would simply disappear.

Yuan Zhinv has also learned about this Hunter Network in the past few days. Because it is so old, the origin of the website can no longer be found, and the technology is very complicated. If someone disappears here, it is very difficult to find clues. Even Norma could not crack it.

This website doesn't even have a search button.

Looks like we need to keep this guy calm, otherwise if we scare him away, it'll be hard to find him again next time.

Yuan Zhinu pondered and carefully considered her words as she typed.

Ruri Kazama: When I was traveling in the Sahara, my knife was stolen by a thief.

Kazama Ruri: My sword is red, it looks valuable and eye-catching, that's probably why it was stolen.

Kazama Ruri: As for the thief's appearance, she was a girl who looked to be in her early twenties. She was quite tall, with black hair and black eyes. She seemed to be very familiar with the surroundings, so she was probably a local. She probably hadn't even used her knife yet.

Kazama Ruri: I need you to go to the Sahara Desert, find this girl, and steal my knife back. Once you find the girl and send me a photo for confirmation, I will pay you a deposit. Once you steal the knife, I will immediately transfer the full amount.

Old Tang: Let me think about it.

Ruri Kazama: Okay, but I hope you can make a decision soon, I'm in a bit of a rush.

The other party remained silent for a long time, but Yuan Zhinv had no choice but to wait patiently. As she walked with Chu Zihang into the village, she kept an eye on her phone and also thought about how to get rid of Chu Zihang.

The simulator says that this Dragon King is very cautious and has a keen sense of danger. If too much commotion is caused here, he is likely to flee.

As for Chu Zihang... this killer never seems to cause a small disturbance when he goes on missions, and every time he gets into a mess that can't be cleaned up, so we can't let him stay. He can't help at all, and might even cause more trouble.

But how to persuade him? If all else fails, I might as well knock him out and throw him away, Yuan Zhinu thought to herself.

Unbeknownst to her, a transoceanic video call was being made at that moment.

In the cramped and cluttered room, Lu Mingfei put on his headset and answered a video call from Lao Tang.

A comically-looking guy with droopy eyebrows appeared in the window. He waved at Lu Mingfei and shouted like thunder, "Hey! Bro!"

Lu Mingfei's ears were almost deafened by the explosion. He quickly moved the headset further away and said, "Wow, keep your voice down!"

"What's the big deal?" Old Tang muttered. "My rented apartment is near the light rail line, so it's quite noisy. Where are you? Why are you being so careful?"

"I'm staying at my uncle and aunt's house now," Lu Mingfei said softly. "Is there something wrong that you called so suddenly?"

"Oh, it's nothing." Old Tang nodded, lowered his voice, and said in broken Chinese, "It's just that, brother, do you remember that job I told you about last time that was supposed to be lucrative, but seemed like a scam?"

Lu Mingfei nodded: "Didn't I tell you to go and ask? You'll be lucky if you run into a sucker."

Old Tang: "Yeah, I went to ask, and then I felt something was off and I was a bit undecided. I was thinking that there are a lot of scams in China and there's a lot of anti-fraud propaganda everywhere, so I thought I'd ask you. You seem like a very smart person."

Lu Mingfei was a little embarrassed, but this was the first time in his life that someone had praised him for being smart. He felt honored that the other person was blind to his intelligence and quickly nodded: "Okay, okay, tell me."

"Someone asked me to find something, saying that his things had been stolen by a thief. He said he would give me a lot of money if I got it back, and he gave me the thief's characteristics and the location."

Lu Mingfei scratched his head: "It sounds pretty normal. Since he has features and a location, why didn't you call the police?"

"Yeah, it's really strange. If they knew everything, why didn't they go find it themselves? Besides, the place is really far away, and they offered a lot of money. It just feels weird."

"Do I need to pay a deposit or something?"

"No need for that. Just say you'll get a deposit once you take a picture of the thief, and you'll get the goods after you receive the money."

“This seems quite sincere, but I also feel something is off. It seems too sincere. Could there be something wrong with the product?” Lu Mingfei pondered. “Is the deposit a lot? Why don’t you take a picture of a thief, take the deposit, and run away?”

Old Tang's eyes lit up on the other end of the video call: "That's right, how come I didn't think of that?"

"It might be a troublesome matter, but secretly taking a photo shouldn't be difficult. Once you get the deposit, you can run away. That's a considerable sum of money! You're really smart, bro!"

Lu Mingfei was a little embarrassed by the praise, but he was also happy to be able to help Lao Tang.

"Don't worry, brother. Once I get the money, I'll definitely treat you well. I'll even sponsor your move-out!"

"Speaking of which, I'm also an orphan," Old Tang said with a sigh. "You know, it's really tough here in America, especially for people like us who have lost both parents. Luckily, I can get social welfare, otherwise I would have starved to death long ago..."

"Pah! Who's an orphan? My parents are just out of town!" Lu Mingfei spat at him forcefully.

"Oh, sorry, I misunderstood, I misunderstood." Old Tang bowed repeatedly from the window, his comical face looking quite ridiculous as he nodded and bowed.

Lu Mingfei was at his wit's end. Just as he was about to hang up the video call, he heard the man say with a sigh:

"Having family is pretty good, right? Let me tell you, sometimes I get really bored by myself. If you ever have the chance, come to America or I'll come back to China to visit you! I can even adopt you as my little brother or something and bring you out of your uncle and aunt's house!"

Lu Mingfei thought to himself, "Dude, are you recognizing a younger brother or a junior brother? This tone sounds like some kind of strange older brother mentality! It's like you're going to take care of me, your junior brother."

However, he is quite loyal to his friends.

Lu Mingfei was moved and told this loyal man that he would definitely do it. However, the video call was disconnected, and as he looked at the other person's darkened profile picture, he felt a strange emptiness in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen.

"It must be my imagination," the boy thought, scratching his head.

……

The temperature in the Sahara Desert plummeted in the dead of night, with occasional gales whipping up clouds of yellow sand. The bright white moon hung high in the sky, its pale light adding to the chill.

A group of suspicious-looking people walked cautiously down the desolate street, looking around as if searching for something.

Chu Zihang followed carefully behind them, and could vaguely hear their voices, which included words like "ancient tomb".

This village was too desolate, with only a few locals. When outsiders came, they would be quite noticeable. These few people were the ones who came into the village later, and Chu Zihang noticed them as soon as they arrived.

Chu Zihang was a very observant person. He noticed their attire and realized they were from out of town, so he became more cautious. Then he discovered that their purpose might be the same as his own.

Before coming here, Schneider gave him mission information, and Chu Zihang thought that these should be the hybrids who took orders on the so-called hunter website.

They were also looking for that ancient tomb, and they secretly went out in the dead of night, seemingly having made a discovery.

Time was of the essence, and Chu Zihang didn't have time to notify Yuan Zhinu, so he followed her on his own, intending to observe the situation first before going back to find her.

But just around the corner, when Chu Zihang peeked out again, the person in front of him had suddenly disappeared.

Chu Zihang instantly realized something was wrong, but before he could leave, a voice came from behind him.

"Hey, I thought someone dared to follow me, but it turns out to be just a little kid who hasn't even grown his first hair yet."

Chu Zihang turned around abruptly and saw that the leader of the group had somehow appeared behind him. At the same time, two other people emerged from the darkness behind him.

He was surrounded.

Chu Zihang frowned, wondering how he had been exposed. He thought he had been careful enough.

As if knowing what he was thinking, a man with dark skin and a short stature chuckled.

"Hey kid, do you know what my Word of Power is? Trying to stalk someone who owns a snake? Are you kidding me?"

Chu Zihang remained silent, but he understood how he had been exposed. The snake's words of power had little offensive capability, but it was indeed excellent in assisting reconnaissance.

Since they were going to enter the ancient tomb to find something, they would naturally take this factor into account, and bringing a reconnaissance-type spirit would obviously make things much easier.

"Stop wasting time talking to this kid. He clearly has ulterior motives. Let's take him down first." The burly man in the lead gave a cold order: "Grab him."

As soon as he finished speaking, the three men surrounded him, weapons in their hands, a faint golden glint in their eyes.

Chu Zihang tightened his grip on his side. Of course, he couldn't be subdued. But at this critical moment, just as he was about to use the Monarch Flame to forcefully break through, a slender, fair hand reached out from behind him and slammed heavily on his head.

Chu Zihang staggered from the impact, the incantation he was about to utter was abruptly swallowed back down. A beautiful girl with delicate features emerged from the darkness, apologetic for her smile.

"I'm sorry to bother you, my younger brother is a bit slow-witted."

Yuan Zhinu pointed to her head and sighed regretfully, "He has a problem here. You adults are magnanimous, so please don't hold it against him."

other side:"?"

Chu Zihang: "..."

Chapter 76 A Ghostly Encounter

On the dark street, a group of people stood ready to fight, the atmosphere heavy yet slightly eerie. Everyone stared at the girl who had suddenly appeared, their expressions varied.

No one knew how she appeared. The short man with the Word Spirit Snake looked like he had seen a ghost. This pale and thin girl gave off the feeling of a ghost, so sinister that even the snake could not detect her.

However, Yuan Zhinv acted very casually. She reached out and tugged at Chu Zihang, who was still in a daze. The seemingly gentle force pulled Chu Zihang directly behind her.

"Everyone, please don't hold it against my brother. If he has offended you in any way, let him apologize to you."
