"I snagged Mu Hang!"

Chapter 124

Having found a reasonable excuse for herself, Shi An skillfully nestled herself into Mu Hang's arms and calmly commanded him to lead the way for her.

The looted trophies took to this well.

It even came with a free dragon jerking and belly rubbing service with a self-conscious and very cooperative attitude.

At first, Shi An would walk through the program at each new location, getting bigger and dealing with the cracks.

But over time, after the sixth pass, the silver-white Little dragon had given up the struggle, lounging in the human's arms, occasionally flicking the tip of his tail, relying solely on his scent to frighten off the demons, while Mu Hang acted as proxy for the rest of the session.

By the tenth course, Shi An had gotten used to being a hands-off manager.

He yawned widely, curled himself into a small ball, rubbed his head against Mu Hang's arms, and fell into a deep sleep without a care in the world.

By the time he opened his eyes, it was basically completely dark.

Although he had been carrying a sleeping Little dragon for seven or eight hours, Mu Hang's arms were still steady and he didn't seem to be tired at all.

Shi An squinted her eyes, stretched her paws, and stretched wide in the human's arms:

"How many are there now?"

Mu Hang did a simple calculation in his mind:

"Twenty-eight."

He raised his hand and skillfully ran it down the dragon's spine twice, "I've collected the pieces I found from the cracks in my bag."

Shi An couldn't help but wiggle the tip of her tail as she was soothed by the touch.

Toolman is so useful.

Not only can you get around, but you can also help in fights.

--he had now largely and completely forgotten the looter's majesty he had tried to project earlier.

At that moment, Little dragon's stomach growled twice.

"Hungry?" Mu Hang asked.

"Uh-huh!" Shi An nodded, looking expectantly at the human in front of her, "What are we having for dinner?"

Mu Hang, head down, pull up the map:

"There should be an inn not far ahead where we can eat."

In fact, after sensing that it was getting late, he began to intentionally move closer to where the humans were gathered.

Mu Hang has now gained a great deal of experience in the field of dragon husbandry.

Like, for example, after slumbering for seven or eight hours at a time, a dragon must be hungry.

--And the dragon was very receptive to the princess's thoughtfulness.

Shi An happily rolled in the other's arms, "Yeah!"

"Do you want to maintain your dragon or human form?" Mu Hang asked.

Shi An thought for a moment, "Did you bring any clothes?"

Mu Hang smiled, "Of course."

While Shi An slept, he passed through more than one human town, buying basically all the essentials he might need in the wild - many of which wouldn't have been necessary if he'd been alone, but the dragons he'd raised were just too delicate, so Mu Hang had to think a little more thoroughly.

Plus ......

This is a rare opportunity.

Let everything the other person wears inside and out come from his hand-picked selection.

Just thinking about it makes Mu Hang very happy.

Twenty minutes later, the inn welcomed two new guests.

Shi An grumbled in a low voice as she tugged down on the hem of her coat:

"I still like what I picked out for myself earlier."

The clothes the other man picked out fit, but they weren't shiny at all and didn't fit his aesthetic at all.

Mu Hang lowered his eyes, his eyes darkening slightly.

He admired the teenager in front of him with an unmarked light smile, "There will be a next time."

Shi An lifted her head and scrutinized the hotel in front of her.

The inn was brightly lit, shrouded in a warm yellow light, with a huge fireplace in the lobby, except that it was well past the season for lighting fires.

I don't know why, but Shi An had a feeling that the interior of this place looked familiar.

It was only when the waiter brought warm honey water and took a sip that the familiar flavor immediately awakened Shi An's memory.

Isn't this the hotel outside the Avon District Canyon!

Only because of the different season, the snow outside had all melted, causing Shi An not to recognize her for a moment.

I was going to stay here for one night after my last visit, but I had to move early due to an accident.

It was really cold that night.

Even just thinking about it made Shi An shiver.

"Are we ...... this coming to the Avon area?"

Shi An asked.

Mu Hang picked up his glass of water and moistened his lips briefly, "Right."

The way to determine where to go next before Shi An falls asleep is simple--

Go wherever is closer first.

But after Shi An fell asleep, Mu Hang's reference for searching for cracks became the coordinates of the abnormal fluctuation of magic power given to him by Zhuo Fu earlier, and he went "wherever it was serious first".

According to this information, there was a great abnormal magical fluctuation reaction in the canyon of the Avon District, with the highest value in the entire Avon District, which was considered one of the strongest even in the entire continent.

Located on the westernmost side of the entire continent and bordering the Central District, the Avon District wasn't too large, and after using magic to compress the distance, the round trip didn't take long.

Especially now that we're past the harshest of winters and the temperatures in the Avon area are no longer so inhospitable to passage.

Shi An doesn't have a problem with that, though.

After all, he wasn't the one rushing, he was just responsible for finding a comfortable position to sleep in.

After finishing his food, Mu Hang got up and went to settle the bill.

Shi An stayed in his seat for dessert.

As he ate, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten something in the meantime:

"......"

Shi An pulled out her magic expansion pouch and opened the mouth of the pouch.

The three demons that had been locked up for a long time rushed out, breathing in the fresh air with a big gulp.

Eyeball cried out in pain.

The black smoke sighed victoriously, pressing itself limply against the tabletop and stretching as widely as possible.

"My lord, tell the truth ......"

After finally feeling the aura of freedom, the three demons slowly twisted their heads and looked at the teenager in front of them with ghostly eyes:

"Have you forgotten us already?"

"No, no."

Shi An's eyes fluttered for a moment, "I'm just so busy these days!"

"So what have you been up to in the meantime?"

Shi An began to count on his fingers:

"I recently found a fire dragon whose body was imprisoned by a human, and I'm trying to free it and restore my magic in the process, and I've also recovered a portion of my treasure from the Toki family-"

The three demons listened while nodding frequently.

Demon Worm was somewhat relieved.

It seems that even though it hadn't been by his lord's side during this period of time, the gargoyle lord was still very reliable when it came to such great matters, or at least hadn't been mesmerized by that damned human again!

"Oh yeah, and I made a deal with the humans, they gave me the skull of the fire dragon and a portion of my treasure, and I wouldn't burn the entire continent with one fire."

Three Devils: "......"

Wait a minute?

Wait?

Did we just miss something?

Why has it suddenly progressed to this point!!!!

*

The receptionist then respectfully bent down and handed Mu Hang the phone he had just picked up, whispering:

"Sir, here's your number."

Mu Hang narrowed his eyes slightly and extended his tactical gloved hand to take the call.

The voice of the Director of Administration came over the microphone:

"Great, we've finally reached you, how are you doing? Do you need us ......"

"You guys have access to my location there?"

Mu Hang asked coldly.

Administration Director choked, "This, this is an emergency plan ......"

He looked at the screen in front of him as he spoke.

The members of the technical department tapped into the security cameras inside the hotel, and they were able to see Mu Hang standing at the front desk, and even through the pixelated blur of the screen, it was as if they could feel the other man's forceful coldness.

From this angle, it was possible to faintly see a table in the distance, the teenager at the corner of the table blocked by the shadows.

That would obviously be the human form of the dragon.

Administration Director said, "You have become a hostage of the dragon for the sake of the survival of mankind, it's really too much of a burden for you ...... Please believe us, we'll definitely-- "

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Mu Hang across the microphone:

"For the survival of mankind?"

He let out a low chuckle, "I think you've misunderstood."

Administration Director: "......"

The Director of the Bureau of Administration

"I'll be unloading the locator instruments inside the communicator next."

The other said nonchalantly, "Don't bother me if you don't have anything to do in the future."

With that, the silver-haired man on the screen hung up.

Until a busy beeping sound came from the microphone, the Secretary for Administration still did not get over it for a long time.

How ...... what's going on?

Is this the state a looted trophy should be in!

This is too much of an anti-climax!

*

Tableside.

The three demons fell silent in unison after listening to Shi An's narration.

Why does it feel like I've missed a whole century when it's obvious that I haven't been released for just a few days?

Black Smoke, on the other hand, was worried about other issues:

"How do you feel in your current physical state, my lord?"

Shi An thought for a moment, "It's pretty good."

"Has the magic of those Abyssal Eyes been completely digested as well?"

Shi An nodded.

"No further symptoms of discomfort?"

Shi An shook his head as he recalled.

But the black smoke didn't look relaxed at all, it said worriedly:

"The main thing is that now that a long time has passed since you ingested the potion, and its effects are again affected by the fluctuations in your magic, it's just a little less ...... likely that you haven't had another attack in such a long time."

Before Black Smoke could finish his words, he was interrupted by the Demon Worm.

It had just gotten over its shock and was now eager to make its point:

"You're really fine the way you are!

After all, you have now found both a way to retrieve your treasure and a way to restore your strength ...... What does it matter even if your relationship with humans is a little strained? As long as you regain your strength, then nothing will be a problem!"

An eyeball to the side nodded vigorously in full approval:

"Exactly! I think that His Excellency has made a very good decision."

It said with hot, emotional tears:

"You have finally and wisely seen the true colors of the vile and evil human race! Especially that Mu Hang ...... You simply made the wisest decision to kick him out-"

It was at this moment that a low male voice rang out from behind, trailing off with an unspoken slight uptick:

"Oh? How?"

Eyeball: "......"

Wait, that voice sounds a little familiar.

All three demons froze in place.

Slowly, little by little, they twisted back to look in the direction from which the sound had come.

Only the silver-haired man stood a short distance behind him, his eyelashes drooping slightly to hide his inscrutable eyes.

There was no extra expression on his face, but it was as if the three demons had once again returned to that night in the volcano pit, and once again felt the fear of being held in front of their eyes by the cold blade of a sword.

"........................"

The Demon Worm twisted his head back with a grunt and lowered his voice, shivering as he asked, "That, Da, Lord, Mu Hang, Mu Hang what's going on here?"

You, didn't you have a falling out with humanity and even threaten to exterminate the world?

Then why would the pinnacle of human combat power still appear in front of them ahhhhhhhhhhh!

Shi An licked the silver spoon of her ice cream and raised her eyes, which came as an afterthought:

"Oh yeah, there's one thing I forgot to mention."

Three Devils: "......"

Suddenly there was a very ominous feeling.

Only the teenager continued in a very pleasant tone:

"I snagged the Mu Hang!"
