But based on Zhou Si's observations over this period of time, he couldn't see anything special about this kid named Lu Mingfei. If he had to say something, it would probably be that he was particularly cowardly.

They also love to criticize and use overused memes.

Let me finish my meal first: [If your brother's dragon-slaying career doesn't go well, why don't you consider sending him to Deyun Club?]

Little Devil: [Thank you, I'll consider it.]

"Hehe, after buying food and vinegar, I still have about ten yuan left. I'll have enough money to go to the internet cafe these next few days."

As Lu Mingfei walked, he did some mental calculations. He deliberately walked a bit further because the food at this night market was a few yuan cheaper than the one next to his house. Usually, the pocket money his uncle and aunt gave him was only enough for food, so he had to be very careful with his money to go to the internet cafe.

Lu Mingfei, who had once again gotten a small advantage from his aunt, was somewhat smug, completely unaware that someone had been observing him for a long time was standing in front of him.

"Ouch."

With a thud, Lu Mingfei felt as if he had crashed into a solid wall, his body falling backward uncontrollably, his mind buzzing.

"Are you OK."

Looking at Lu Mingfei, who had knocked her two meters away, Zhou Si began to doubt the truthfulness of the little devil's words once again.

"No...it's nothing, oh no, Auntie wants food!"

As soon as Lu Mingfei uttered the words "I'm fine," he remembered what he was carrying before he fell, and his expression instantly changed.

His aunt will definitely kill him if he goes back empty-handed!

The expected scene of snacks scattered all over the ground did not occur. Instead, the handsome guy he had just bumped into appeared like a savior, handing him a bag in one hand.

'My benefactor'

Lu Mingfei's eyes filled with tears. Although this handsome man couldn't save him from falling, saving his aunt's meal was equivalent to saving his life.

"Excuse me, sir, I bumped into you just now."

"It's okay, just be more careful when you walk in the future."

What a great person! He bumped into him, but instead of getting angry, he saved his 'life'. If they were in an internet cafe right now, Lu Mingfei would definitely buy him a bottle of energy drink.

Unfortunately, there were neither internet cafes nor convenience stores nearby, so Lu Mingfei could only offer his sincere thanks.

"Thank you..." Just as Lu Mingfei was about to give a standard Japanese bow to express his gratitude and then quickly leave, the handsome man in front of him suddenly seemed very familiar to him, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

"Brother, have we met somewhere before?"

Of course they'd seen him before! Their travel route during this period was designed around this kid's movements, precisely to make it easier to observe his actions. Plus, the three of them were so conspicuous, it's normal that they would remember him.

However, Zhou Si would certainly not reveal his purpose directly, but to facilitate future actions, perhaps directly contacting Lu Mingfei would be a good option?

"Oh, I'm here as a tourist. I've been wandering around this area a lot these past few days," Zhou Si casually made up an excuse, then asked quite naturally, "You're a student at Shilan Middle School, right?"

"How did you know?"

Lu Mingfei was taken aback. He wasn't even wearing his school uniform, yet this person could recognize his school at a glance.

"Could it be that you calculated it?"

Lu Mingfei looked around but didn't see Zhou Si's stall. He had been reading a lot of urban novels lately, and he often fantasized that he would meet a master on his way home, feel that they were destined to meet, and then sell him three martial arts manuals for ten yuan.

Although this expert looked a bit young, he happened to have ten yuan on him. Isn't that a coincidence?

I've seen you at the gate of your school.

Although Zhou Si didn't know what Lu Mingfei was imagining, his sly look made her want to punch him.

The shattering of dreams is cruel, but Lu Mingfei is used to it. Besides, he doesn't have time to waste now; his aunt is waiting at home.

"Brother, is there anything else? I need to hurry home and collect the laundry."

"It's nothing very important." Zhou Si paused, then patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder and said to him:

"I just feel we're destined to meet, and I'd like to pass on a few skills to you. I wonder if you'd be interested?"

"what?"

Lu Mingfei admitted that his mind was somewhat blank right now.

......

Ten minutes later, watching Lu Mingfei, who had been tricked into limping away (falling), Zhou Si laughed out loud in a wicked way.

He successfully gained a new contact in his mobile chat app, but judging from the profile picture, it was clearly a low-level account.

But that's enough. If I were too enthusiastic, I might scare the kid away.

After all, there's still a long time to deal with them, and with a younger brother like that around, it's impossible for Lu Mingfei not to embark on a path related to the Dragon Clan.

Who knows, they might even become alumni someday.

Back in the presidential suite on the top floor of the Regent Hotel, Erii and Kotori had already finished showering and were curled up on the sofa playing video games. They were playing Mario Kart 8 on a handheld console that Nintendo had recently released.

The handheld console that Erii originally brought out was destroyed by the electromagnetic pulse released by Zhou Si downstairs at Genji Heavy Industries. He bought it when he went to Japan to find Uesugi Kotsushi, and also bought a lot of game cartridges along with it.

"Welcome back."

Noticing Zhou Si opening the door, Erii, who had already crossed the finish line and taken first place, raised her notebook and waved to Zhou Si.

"Play together?"

"You play with Elena for now, I'll come over later."

Zhou Si declined Erii's invitation to play a game; he had other important matters to attend to.

He went into his room, opened the laptop on his desk, and used the software and account that Uesugi had given him to access a website.

As the progress bar finished loading, Zhou Si logged into the website called Hunter using the username Monster Hunter.

This hunter was clearly different from Zhou Si and his monster hunters. Most of the hunters on this website were bounty hunters who operated in the gray area, and they targeted mostly those commissions that couldn't be made public.

These commissions bring them extremely high rewards, but they also represent great risks.

But Zhou Si's purpose was not to compete with these rats in the dark for food. He entered this website to find some clues about dragons or hybrids.

According to Uesugi Kotsugi's description, most of the famous figures in this world's history were either pure-blooded dragons or hybrids.

Zhou Si found it difficult to describe his feelings when he heard the story of Attila, the King of the Earth and Mountains, being poisoned by the Secret Society assassins. His historical education and what he heard seemed to be fighting each other in his mind.

After all, the impact of this story is even greater than if King Arthur were a girl.

As he slowly scrolled the mouse wheel, he noticed that most of the quests on the Hunter website were ordinary gray-themed quests, but he also found quite a few notices about team tomb raiding and the like.

But either the pool of people is already full, or they don't want new people. However, in Zhou Si's judgment, the authenticity of these commissions is extremely questionable.

After all, the tomb is located underground at a US military base. Putting aside whether foreign dignitaries would build their tombs there, even if they did, it wouldn't be their place to dig it up.

Zhou Si filtered out a large amount of junk information until one particular request caught her attention.

The mission was commissioned in Fuzhou, making it one of the few domestic missions. There were no specific requirements for the person handling the mission, which is why it caught Zhou Si's attention.

The pigs on my farm were killed by a black monster!!!

Client: Anonymous

Below was a video that was several hundred megabytes in size. Zhou Si clicked to download it and then scrolled down to the comments section.

Anonymous A: [This looks like a composite image; only a fool would believe it.]

Anonymous B: [It's true, how could such a monster exist on Earth, especially in your pig farm? The Hunter Network is a murky place; you'd better delete this post and go back to raising pigs before the administrators find out, hahaha.]

The comments below were almost entirely in agreement; not a single one supported the original poster.

Ding--

The video had been downloaded, and Zhou Si opened it with a bit of curiosity.

In the video, the pigs in the pen were resting quietly on the ground, but soon a huge black shadow climbed over the wall of the pig farm.

Its jet-black fur almost blended into the night, its thick tail hung behind it, and its blade-sharp wings were connected to its forelimbs. This familiar appearance made Zhou Si's eyes widen.

"Isn't that a Nargacuga?!"

The monster known as the Crimson Meteor was now perched on the roof beam of the building. With a flick of its thick tail, several hard tail feathers pierced through the bodies of several pigs, causing the pigs nearby to panic upon seeing their comrades die.

The velociraptor then picked up the corpse from the ground and quickly disappeared into the night.

Soon after, the farm's employees discovered the commotion, and the video ended there.

"It's true that I'm looking for a pure-blooded dragon, but not you!"

Zhou Si stared at the frozen image of the pitch-black flying dragon and fell silent.

Update this afternoon. I went to the hospital this morning.

My old injury flared up, so I went to the hospital. I'll update this afternoon when I get back!

Chapter Thirteen: Brother, I Sold You

Night fell over the entire farm. Zhou Si sat on the eaves of the farm's roof, scrolling through her phone with a bit of boredom.

He is currently at the highest point of the entire farm, a spot that offers a panoramic view of the farm without being detected by the farm's staff.

After all, Zhou Si hadn't accepted the commission on the hunter website. After watching the video and confirming the location of the breeding farm, he closed the post and came to the breeding farm with the little bird.

Zhou Si originally planned to come alone, but since Elini seemed very interested in the Swift Dragon, she brought her along.

Erii stayed at the hotel with Shiro. With Shiro there, even if they encountered danger, the two of them could immediately hide back in the meeting place.

"We haven't spotted the velociraptor yet. Is it not coming tonight?"

A hand gripped the eaves, and with a slight effort, Alini landed gracefully beside Zhou Si, her black coat rustling in the wind.

"No, this is an adult velociraptor. Its wariness allowed it to only eat a few pigs in its previous crimes, but that's not enough to sustain its energy expenditure. It will definitely come tonight."

The velociraptor in the video looked extremely hungry. If it were a velociraptor under normal conditions, it would be at least several times faster than the one in the video.

Its first few departures were most likely due to being frightened by the loud alarms and the large feeding machines. Once it realizes that these things pose no threat, it will probably return to the farm for a big meal.

"Ah."

The little bird nodded, agreeing with Zhou Si's assessment.

Today, the little bird has changed back into the outfit she wore when she first met Zhou Si. The only two differences are that the rapier at her waist has been replaced. The original rapier had already reached the end of its lifespan. It was first severely injured in the throat by Zhou Si in the mobile city of Primia, and later it killed so many Sealings.

The rapier at Irene's waist is now forged from the electric horn of the Thunder Dragon, and it roars with thunder when it attacks. This is one of the materials traded with Rhodes Island.

Elena originally wanted to learn how to use hunter weapons, but her physical abilities were not as strong as those of the deep-sea hunters, and the use of light weapons was quite different from her original fighting style.

In addition, due to her busy work schedule, Kotori is not yet proficient in using hunter weapons, so she still uses a rapier.

However, in Zhou Si's opinion, Xiao Niao's dual swords skills are almost ready after a while of practice. Should she ask the mute boy to give her some extra training?

Besides the rapier, there was also the lantern that symbolized the courtroom, which has now truly become just decoration.

The reason why judges still carry oil lamps today, besides signifying their status, is mainly because they have long been accustomed to it.

At least that's true for birds.

"Your outfit is quite nostalgic; it reminds me of when we first met."

"Did you hang me up when we first met?"

The little bird's eyes immediately turned dead. Zhou Si really knew how to bring up the most sensitive topics. There were so many things to talk about, but she had to bring this up.

But clearly, Elena underestimated Zhou Si's limits. When the little bird brought up the matter, he not only didn't change the subject, but also excitedly moved closer to Elena and placed his phone in front of her.

"You know what, I even took pictures back then!"

On the phone screen, the unconscious Elinni was hanging from the rafters, and Zhou Si was beside her making a peace sign with an unusually bright smile.

The happier Zhou Si laughed in the scene, the higher Aileen's anger level became.

crackling

Several bolts of lightning flashed in the air, and the golden slender sword, forged from the electric horn of the Thunder Dragon, drew an arc in the air and once again pierced towards Zhou Si's throat.

"Fuck."

Zhou Si reacted quickly and dodged the sword. Although it was unlikely that the sword would break through his defense, Zhou Si had a premonition that if the little bird deflected the sword again, then what followed might not be as simple as a single sword strike.

"Calm down, it looks like someone's coming from over there."

Having dodged the sword strike, Zhou Si quickly grabbed the little bird's wrist, stopping her from launching another attack, and pointed to the nearby forest.
