Chapter 193 [A Century-Old Brand] (Rare Item)
On the 9th, counting the days, it had been ten days since she went to Moon Lake City to steal the book.
She wanted to go back to Zelan. Taking classes with Hedgehog was a minor matter. She needed to find out what was going on with Moonfox and move her teleportation array to a location known only to herself before she could feel at ease.
However, before that, she could ask Zhao Shuying about Zhelan's situation.
[Yu Xunge]: Have the people captured in Zhelan been rescued?
[Zhao Shuying]: If you're going to Zhelan soon, you can wait a couple of days and go with our Special Affairs Bureau team.
[Yu Xun Ge]: What do you mean? Another group buy? Is it nationwide or just for S City?
[Zhao Shuying]: Of course, it's our S City branch. Generally, each branch manages its own affairs.
[Zhao Shuying]: We have established a new base on the seabed of Zelan.
[Yu Xun Ge]: The seabed? Isn't that the territory of the sea monsters? Isn't their main city located at the bottom of the sea?
[Zhao Shuying]: Near the underwater volcano, that area is a forbidden zone of Zelan, devoid of magical energy. To other races, it's just wasteland. Sea monsters won't go there. The nearest major cities are two: one is the underwater city of As, and the other is the coastal city of Yuesen. Yuesen City is about a 2-hour drive away. If you can breathe underwater, As is even closer; you can swim there in an hour.
[Yu Xun Ge]: The Special Affairs Bureau is my most precious friend! ∠(°ゝ°)
[Zhao Shuying]: Will you transfer the travel expenses now or settle them later?
【Yu Xunge】(°ゝ°)
[Zhao Shuying]: What do you mean? You're not even showing courtesy anymore?
[Yu Xun Ge]: ? I just scratched my itchy head a little, salute? What salute?
[Zhao Shuying]: Hehe, it's free! Are you coming or not!
[Yu Xun Ge]: ∠(°ゝ°) Anytime, anywhere, I'm at your beck and call!
【Zhao Shuying】(°ゝ°)
[Yu Xun Ge]: So how do you deal with the Dark City's deputy city lord's divine talent of being able to see a person's memories of the last 30 days?
[Zhao Shuying]: There's nothing we can do for now. We've already gotten our hands on the portrait of the Undercity Vice Lord, so for the time being we can only avoid him. Remember to check your phone later; I'll send you his photo.
[Yu Xun Ge]: Oh, why don't you just send the transport resources by mail? It must be very risky to go back and forth like that.
[Zhao Shuying]: She's obviously never had a job or ever taken the blame before... Those who specialize in purchasing and transporting valuable resources must ensure that the handover is completed in person with surveillance or witnesses.
[Yu Xun Ge]: You have a story.
[Zhao Shuying]: They were all accidents.
Those qualified to go to Zelan now are all screened; half are spies gathering information about Zelan, and the other half are responsible for purchasing resources.
Yu Xunge was the only lone wolf that Zhao Shuying had invited through the Special Affairs Bureau, so that Yu Xunge could learn about the Special Affairs Bureau's base in Zhelan, so that if she discovered any news about the new base in the future, she could immediately sense that something was wrong.
Otherwise, if Yu Xunge were to learn about the area near the underwater volcano but not know that there were people from the Special Affairs Bureau there, and thus miss the opportunity to report it, that would be a truly hellish joke.
Since Zhao Shuying said to wait a few days, Yu Xunge will wait. She will go there to check the situation. If it is really safe near the underwater volcano, then it is not impossible for her to set the teleportation array there.
A two-hour journey might be a long one for others, but for her it was as easy as teleporting.
Yu Xunge tossed Tu Lan onto the sofa and went to pet the cat's bed. The whistle and soda can she had petted last time were not bad, but when it came to satisfaction, she was most satisfied with the jade turtle from the wishing well. However, she hadn't been to Zhelan much lately, so she hadn't used it.
After petting all the cats, big and small, that rubbed against her legs, Yu Xunge squeezed her way to the edge of the cat house, lay down on the ground, and reached inside, only to find a wooden sign.
Yu Xunge took the wooden plaque out of the cat's bed with great anticipation. The plaque looked quite old, about the length of Yu Xunge's forearm and slightly wider than her palm. The plaque had the words "Centennial Brand" engraved on it.
Looking at the item description again...
【Centennial Brand】(Rare Item): Hold this item above your head and shout "I am a century-old brand!" The first dish you make after that will receive a +10 rating. Cooldown time: 1 hour.
Yu Xunge fell silent.
It's like when you're a celebrity and your manager tells you, "You've gone viral! The top ten trending topics are all about you!" But when you click on them, all you see are funny videos of her.
It's red, but not completely red yet.
Yu Xunge stuffed the wooden plaque into her bag, put her hands behind her back, and calmly returned to the room. As she passed Tu Lan, she said with a loving expression, "Eating?" Then she turned and headed towards the stairs, heading straight for the study on the second floor.
Tulan, who is eating ice cream with a spoon on the sofa: ?
Something's wrong; this emotion is very strange.
Why does it feel like a thief broke into my house?
What is Xiao Yu feeling guilty about?
Tu Lan frowned, stuffed the ice cream bucket into the space in her stomach, flapped her wings and flew to the second floor, just in time to hear the sound of the study door being locked.
Tulan: !
She turned a corner, skillfully flew out of the window, circled halfway around, shrinking smaller and smaller until the entire little dragon was only the size of a gold coin, before flying back into the second-floor study from the balcony.
Landing silently, the little ice dragon pressed itself tightly against the corner of the balcony wall, its back against the wall, and slowly moved sideways towards the French windows. Finally, it popped its little head out from the corner of the French windows to look inside.
Yu Xunge cleared the desk, took out various kitchen utensils and ingredients from his game backpack, put them away one by one, and finally took out a wooden sign. He took a deep breath, raised it high above his head, and shouted, "This is a century-old brand!"
Tu Lan: "..."
Tu Lan: "Pfft."
Yu Xunge: "…………" She slowly turned her head to look at the balcony outside the study, quickly scanned the area, and finally spotted a tiny, tiny head in the corner of the French windows…
Tulan turned and rushed out.
Yu Xunge rolled up his sleeves and chased after him: "If I don't beat your ice cream out of you today, I'll take your surname!"
Tu Lan flew around in the air: "I~ this~ am~ a~ century~ old~ brand~!"
Yu Xunge: "…………" You're dead.
The final battle between the man and the dragon lasted two hours, with Yu Xunge's magic missiles aimed at Tu Lan's buttocks the entire time.
Tulan has learned his lesson and no longer uses his ultimate skill, but instead uses some short-casting skills.
But all the attacks missed; while the skills were still flying through the air, Yu Xunge teleported away.
Even if she reversed time and predicted Yu Xunge's prediction, it was useless. Yu Xunge's ability to escape was unparalleled. Even if she found herself in a new location and the skill had already been launched, she could still lean back without changing her expression, thus buying herself half a second to continue teleporting and dodging.
Tu Lan: How shameless!
