Chapter 58
The autumn wind is bleak.
Su Xingyuan stood alone on the roadside, holding the [Secret Realm Pass], and fell into deep thought.
He sensed for a long time but could not find out where the pass was.
"Xingyuan Hunter? So you are here too!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind.
"Hello, Qiao Zixin." Su Xingyuan turned around and asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Qiao Zixin: "...No, I just came to say hello."
After saying that, she noticed the creature above Su Xingyuan's head that almost blended into his hair color.
"This is……"
A pair of big round golden eyes appeared, looking at Qiao Zixin with a little expectation.
Qiao Zixin finished her guess in surprise: "...Lizard?"
Su Xingyuan: “…”
The black-haired boy suddenly laughed. The pet above his head seemed to understand what Qiao Zixin said, and its big eyes were suddenly filled with sadness.
It's so cute and majestic, how could it be a lizard? !
It can roar like a dragon!
Seeing the reaction of the black-haired boy, Qiao Zixin instantly knew that he had guessed wrong, and his face flushed: "Isn't it a lizard? It's... it's... I'm sorry, it really looks like a lizard!"
Su Xingyuan replied seriously: "Miss Qiao is right, they both have four legs, a tail, and scales. The similarity is as high as 90%."
Black dragon cub: “…”
With such a master, who can understand its pain?
Su Xingyuan thought of something: "Is your ability danger perception?"
Qiao Zixin was slightly stunned: "Yes, but this ability is passive and will bring me great pain. Therefore, I couldn't stand it a few years ago and left the central city."
She smiled helplessly: "However, although there are many portals in the central city, at least there are rarely any real threats to life safety. The incident in J City did scare my father."
Su Xingyuan's gamer intuition made him ask a question: "Excuse me, who is your father...?"
Qiao Zixin: "Jitianshi."
Su Xingyuan: “…”
The black-haired boy looked calm and composed, "What a coincidence! I just met President Ji not long ago and we had a very pleasant conversation."
Qiao Zixin: ...the kind of conversation where they had a chase in the city center?
She smiled and said, "I actually lived with my mother for a long time. After she left, I became independent. Most people don't know of my existence, and I rarely get involved in matters between hunters and guilds. Just treat me as an ordinary friend."
"Speaking of which, the hunter from the Starfield asked about my ability. Is there anything you need help with? If my ability can be of help, I would be very honored."
After she said that, Su Xingyuan was not polite: "You can feel the emergence of the portal, so can you sense a special portal?"
Qiao Zixin nodded affirmatively: "Sure. As long as it doesn't involve my own danger, like the high-speed rail incident, my ability is very accurate."
After saying that, she closed her eyes and began to amplify her perception.
"...Found it. There is only one portal in the central city and surrounding areas that feels a bit strange to me... It's probably near the Yinglong base. It should be Class B."
After the induction ended, she opened her eyes. Her breathing was obviously unstable and a little sweat appeared on her forehead.
Su Xingyuan handed her a piece of dessert.
Qiao Zixin could tell at a glance where the dessert came from and couldn't help but remain silent for a moment. This act of giving away something for free might seem outrageous to ordinary people, but it seemed surprisingly normal to the black-haired hunter.
"Thank you. Fang Mujian knows my number. You can call me if you need anything."
After the black-haired hunter promised, "If you have any trouble, come to me and I'll help you," he quickly rushed towards his destination.
Qiao Zixin looked at his back, smiled and shook his head.
It was really strange. Her father was arguably the most powerful man in the country in the past and still is. But the sense of security he brought her was not as good as a word from the black-haired boy.
Perhaps it’s because, from the beginning to now, from J City to A City, he has always seemed... omnipotent.
It seems that no matter how insurmountable the mountain is, he can walk on it as if it were flat ground.
*
Su Xingyuan opened the mini-map, located the Yinglong base, and ran in the shortest straight line.
After passing the tall buildings that blocked his way and reaching a wider flat ground, he suddenly started a backflip.
Black dragon cub: “???”
It instantly felt the thrill of a roller coaster, and grabbed the black-haired boy's hair tightly, so as not to be thrown away.
Sure enough, seeing that it was fine, the owner sighed with regret.
Su Xingyuan was very fast. When the black dragon cub was still doubting his dragon life, he had already arrived at the Yinglong base and tried to climb in through the window. He found that there were no windows outside the base.
Su Xingyuan was shocked and appeared in the sight of the two guards.
The black-haired boy said calmly, "I came to have a drink with President Xue."
Now almost everyone in the central city knows Su Xingyuan's face. Between the social news about the emergence of a new S-level hunter and the entertainment news about a speeding chase with a black-haired boy on the street, one has to be paid attention to. Therefore, the two security guards did not question his identity and directly informed Xue Yinglong.
In fact, if other S-level hunters had come today, not only would the guards be on alert, but the entire Yinglong base would also change its attitude.
——If there are two large guilds of comparable size, and an S-level hunter from one guild comes to the other guild uninvited, it can be considered a provocation or an act with offensive intent.
Su Xingyuan upgraded too quickly, just like humans cannot understand the thought processes of goldfish. He actually did not have a deeper concept of S-level hunters. He did not know that in people's eyes, S-level hunters were no different from nuclear weapons.
If a nuclear weapon belonging to another force is pointed directly at your doorstep, who can keep a good face? What else could this be but a provocation?
But if it is a nuclear weapon that remains neutral and does not cause harm to humans, then no matter which force it is, they will have a good attitude and at least will not think about making enemies.
"Xingyuan Hunter, why are you here at this time!"
Soon, Xue Yinglong appeared at the door and said happily: "You should have informed me in advance, so I could have displayed all the fine wines in the wine cellar for you!"
He first took Su Xingyuan to visit the base of his guild. As one of the top three guilds in the country, his base was built like a small fortress, and it looked very much in Xue Yinglong's personal style.
"It's a pity that some of our best players have already gone in today, otherwise we could have let you meet them. We are like brothers in normal times..." Xue Yinglong said with some regret as he introduced them.
At this moment, a voice came from his watch: "President, there is a problem in the door. The life detection devices of the eight hunters who entered the door went dark at the same time!"
Xue Yinglong's expression changed immediately.
He didn't even bother to pay attention to the guests as he hurried towards the door, not even noticing the black-haired boy following him silently.
Soon, he arrived at the door. When he saw a faint light coming from the life detection device, he breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he took off his coat with a gloomy look.
"Let me see what kind of little beast is in there..."
As he was speaking, he turned around and saw the black-haired boy standing next to him. After noticing his gaze, he blinked with a harmless expression.
Xue Yinglong suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up: "Brother Xingyuan, I heard that you are very good at rescuing people from the portal? Do me a favor, and I will treat you to a big meal when you come back!"
Su Xingyuan:?
When did he ever say he was good at fishing people out of doors?
However, his original purpose was to enter this door, so of course he was very happy to do so.
Two S-level hunters entering the door together was undoubtedly the best news for the hunters trapped inside the door.
Xue Yinglong is not that overbearing or stubborn person who thinks, "We won't let anyone else enter our guild's portal," and he puts saving people first. No wonder even though he looks stupid, there are still a group of people around him who are willing to follow him.
Su Xingyuan tied the [Secret Realm Pass] to his left wrist and entered the door with Xue Yinglong.
“Swish!”
Almost at the moment they entered the door, their bodies were wrapped by huge waves, as if the entire door was a world of water.
It has a salty and fishy smell, it's sea water.
If an ordinary person is suddenly swept into the sea without wearing any protection, he will definitely not be able to react in a short period of time.
But players are an exception.
Even without the [Assimilation Fish Tail] equipped, he can always ignore the environment and take action at the first opportunity.
Feeling the weight of the black dragon cub above his head and knowing that it had not been washed away, Su Xingyuan took out the fishing rod without any hesitation. The powerful force suddenly broke through the resistance of the sea water and swung the fishing hook straight towards the huge shadow above!
The pulling feeling in his hand meant that he had successfully fixed the fishhook on the huge creature.
The black-haired boy turned around, held the fishing rod in one hand, and reached out to the sturdy President Xue who was still struggling with the other hand.
Xue Yinglong grabbed him and now that he had a fixed point, he immediately stabilized himself and gave Su Xingyuan a look of gratitude.
But when he looked at the shadow above his head, the expression of gratitude immediately froze on his face.
——It was a fish with white flesh, sharp teeth, a huge body and a terrifying appearance.
At this moment, the fish had obviously noticed them. Its eyes, which were like plastic beads, moved slightly and slowly fell on the two humans below.
Xue Yinglong, who is not afraid of anything except fish, said: "..."
What’s even more deadly is that what’s in front of you is not just a fish, but a giant fish that has been magnified countless times.
...Help, if I leave Brother Su Xingyuan here alone now, is it too late for me to return the same way I came?
Just by being stared at by these two fish eyes, he felt like he was going to start to have cramps! !
As if sensing his fear, the black-haired boy turned around and smiled at him soothingly.
Xue Yinglong didn't understand what such a smile meant at this moment. Just as he was about to be moved, he found that the black-haired boy was pulling him and swimming quickly towards the direction of the fish.
