After the sumptuous al, it was ti to divide the spoils of battle.
Both had fought side by side, probably not paying much attention to the loot at that mont, but it was necessary to clarify things now.
"Ah, right now I just want to get myself a nice car," Du Gang said as he looked at the spoils Zheng Yichen had brought out, which had already been roughly processed into truly usable raw materials.
Items like dragon horns, dragon scales, dragon sinews, and dragon bones were highly coveted in his world, as they ca from dragons of the Great World and were of high quality, while other items were rather infernal, having been obtained from Hell.
However, those things also had uses, especially the ones obtained from the Boundary Breaker.
Both Zheng Yichen and Du Gang’s attacks were powerful, aning they often left their enemies in ashes, and anything that survived such attacks was generally valuable.
Items too heavily damaged were discarded, those intact were packed up and taken, then dismantled by Lilith with her Universal Toolbox.
But as they say, in Dusk rcenary, materials were never the most valuable—it was the processing fee that cost the most.
"Ah, becoming a Proxy Agent and amassing wealth is way too easy," Du Gang sincerely remarked after tallying up the loot, "where growth is cherished and revered." In his world, strength was honored, and at that ti, he had developed his Vajra Body excellently, a testant to his family’s good fortune.
After becoming a Proxy Agent, his pace of accumulating wealth beca... it was ti to scold his son!
When he thought about Zheng Yichen, also a young man, and then about his own son, Du Gang felt uneasy and decided his son needed a serious talk when he returned, aligning with the views of the Wild Ancient territory.
In certain aspects of education, he didn’t even need to intervene.
"Are you still worried about that?"
"Of course, not. Just, I think it was about ten years ago, I slipped up once, and then a family got their eyes on ."
Zheng Yichen nodded, not pressing any further. In any case, it ant that Du Gang ended up here and the family probably t their doom.
"You haven’t had such issues, have you?"
"Um... I got invested in early on, but that family is now worried about how to maintain a relationship with ," Zheng Yichen said, having not encountered situations like Du Gang’s.
"What’s there to worry about? It’s just the sa old tactics, simple but effective," Du Gang scoffed, "Have you noticed your luck with won has been getting better?"
"That’s true..."
"That thod still works pretty well, and it can keep changing and stay effective," Du Gang, experienced in this area, had shown his strength by obliterating a top family in an ancient capital. Many then changed their view of his overt wealth.
It went as he said, his appeal gradually increased, but initially, those who approached him were more like trophies with no real attraction to him. Later, it turned into competent won coming forward.
The more outstanding individuals were, the more attractive they beca. However, Du Gang saw through many things; many capable won were using his strength and resource to achieve their ambitions since they had their aspirations.
Du Gang didn’t want to get entwined in such complex matters. After all, when he beca a Proxy Agent, he was already a father, and as long as he remained strong, such sugar-coated allure would only beco more enticing.
Du Gang was quite intrigued with this routine, apart from sharing so of his experiences as a Proxy Agent with Zheng Yichen.
Although so were redundant, telling of experiences Zheng Yichen had not faced, they proved quite useful.
As ti passed, Du Gang sighed, "This entire experience makes want to write a book... Forget it, just let know when you’re heading to the Old Capital, I’ll stay here a while longer."
He and Zheng Yichen exchanged ’contact’ information, basically leaving a Storage Cabinet for each other, an affordable exchange in rit points. Du Gang planned to linger in the Great World, an environnt that was quite unique.
Specifically, Dusk rcenaries ca here to cultivate. Since he was here, he couldn’t miss the chance. The mont he faced the Heaven-Shaking Cannon, his Vajra Body had nearly shattered; yet, at that ti, to maximally defend against the Heaven-Shaking Cannon, he used his Vajra Body unabashedly, even glimpsing new limits.
He was ready to attempt a breakthrough in the Great World, though the chances were slim, it was worth a try.
Letting Zheng Yichen notify him in advance allowed Du Gang to better plan so matters.
"I’m ready to leave here, to find a suitable hunting ground to recuperate," Zheng Yichen told Du Gang. There wasn’t much keeping him in the Great World, hunting? No joke, another stunt and he might not make it back to Dusk.
Since he couldn’t hunt in the Great World, there was no reason to stay. It was ti to head to the world of magic to hunt sufficient creatures and replenish his consud Essence of Life...
"There’s no ti to delay, if you’re leaving, you better hurry," Du Gang didn’t try to hold him back too much, knowing Zheng Yichen didn’t have much ti left.
After being pulled into the Great World, they had essentially completed their mission.
The ti spent in the Great World was considered "rest" ti; because of the number of retentions, his condition could be said to be at its peak, while Zheng Yichen had endured his return to the Dusk, albeit having received Dusk’s treatnt.
However, this treatnt was to restore his body to normal, the Essence of Life was like an extra blood bar for Zheng Yichen.
Dusk restored his normal blood bar, but the Essence of Life was still in a depleted state.
Previously, after Zheng Yichen was injured by the Heavenly Punishnt, his blood bar was essentially locked at a limit; the extra blood bar was also affected by this lock, otherwise, why would his body struggle to recover?
Now that Dusk had healed him, the severe injury from the locked blood bar was gone, and he could quickly recover by hunting creatures with powerful Life Forces.
"Let’s rest for a night and then leave."
Du Gang nodded and didn’t say anything else.
Zheng Yichen found Tia among the many Dusk nuns; his injuries were fine, but the equipnt he carried still needed extensive maintenance.
Whether it was the motorcycle or other equipnt, all were damaged. His equipnt, having undergone various high-intensity enhancents, was extrely durable. For instance, the cat spirit cloak was the kind of armor that could take a direct hit and still be fine even though the person inside might be shattered to minceat.
But even such armor was severely damaged in high-intensity combat, and the cat spirit was dispersed at one point. However, due to the special nature of the cat spirit cloak, the cat spirit wasn’t truly killed and would recover after so ti.
The motorcycle was running overloaded; the fishing rod had undertaken Zheng Yichen’s role of outputting power, also severely damaged, but the cost to repair his equipnt... 7 rit points.
Such a comparison once again made Zheng Yichen conscious of his own expense.
However, seeing the equipnt and vehicles restored anew, Zheng Yichen smiled, showing his teeth, lovingly touching the motorcycle’s surface that showed no signs of wear, while the cat spirit on his shoulder vigorously rubbed against Zheng Yichen’s cheek.
Normally, it would need so ti to recover. Of course, Zheng Yichen could also provide extra Essence to speed up its recovery, but this recovery ti was instantly completed with Dusk’s repair.
"BOSS, you’re making embarrassed."
"Hahaha, sorry about that, my lady," Zheng Yichen said with a laugh to Lilith, noting her changed hairstyle to twin ponytails, adding a sowhat younger aura to her usual appearance.
"BOSS, that’s not quite ladylike."
"But you are very gentle and considerate when we fight side by side. Rest well, tomorrow we leave, and then it’s back to the grind."
Zheng Yichen returned to the Dusk Cathedral when Tanshia Firlo ca running over holding a sphere, "There are bad guys over there."
"Bad guys?"
Zheng Yichen saw several non-human figures, now maintaining human forms, but still partially non-human, such as their eyes.
They too were dragons.
Probably dragons from another world.
Seeing Zheng Yichen, the figures showed apologetic expressions, and one of the won approached proactively: "We were just curious about the young dragon here, sorry if we scared you."
The mother dragon pulled out a small pouch, and Tanshia Firlo’s nose twitched, showing an enticed expression—it was snacks, and very tempting ones.
"How long have you been Dusk rcenaries?" Zheng Yichen asked the several human-shaped dragons in front of him.
The mother dragon didn’t hide anything and directly answered: "It’s been thirty-seven years. We have encountered dragons from other worlds before, but never a young dragon... Isn’t this too risky?"
Dragons were already scarce, and fewer numbers an fewer issues and easier unity. Thus, when they encountered a young dragon here, they paid great attention. Being a Dusk rcenary was not exactly a safe profession, and having a young dragon in such a role was courting death.
Her family sure is careless, aren’t they?
But having seen Zheng Yichen, they realized what was going on—it was a Proxy Agent raising a child.
And seeing Tanshia Firlo’s dependency on Zheng Yichen, it was clear that the young dragon and Zheng Yichen had a very good relationship, even if Zheng Yichen was not a dragon, and there was so similarity in their auras.
"I’m very strong," Tanshia Firlo said discontentedly to the mother dragon trying to advise sothing, maintaining a highly wary attitude towards the unfamiliar dragon.
