Chapter 357
Putting away the Death God Scythe, Lance sat in a chair, wondering if Death God Solomon, had any connections in Hell.
You'd think this guy had no connections, but he immediately offered to try and get him a Level One Death God.
As far as he knew, there were no living Level One Death God in the human world. Level One Death God had to serve in Hell. In the human world, the highest level was the Intern Death God.
Intern Death God can be considered as reserves for Hell. After they die and go to Hell, they immediately become Level One Death God.
Trainee Death God, after you die you go to Hell and you have to train with Level One Death God for a period of time. After training for hundreds or thousands of years, when you feel you're ready, you can become Level One Death God.
To turn living beings into Level One Death God of hell is to break the ironclad rules of hell, and it's impossible to achieve without some powerful backing.
Not to mention that Death God Solomon is only a Tier Two Death God. Even a Level 5 Death God wouldn't dare guarantee that a human world Intern Death God could be directly promoted to Level One Death God.
He's a Tier Two Death God; would he dare say something like that without some kind of background?
Solomon has connections, yet it took him so many years to become a Tier Two Death God. Isn't that a bit too long for a Shinigami with connections and influence? Three years to Tier Two Death God, five years to become a Level 5 Shinigami—that's the speed at which someone with connections and influence can advance.
He guessed that Solomon had some connections, but not as exaggerated as he imagined.
Solomon's confidence in saying something like "let's see if we can make him Level One Death God" is probably related to his abilities.
His actions, from Trainee Death God to current Intern Death God, have proven his abilities.
Perhaps it was his abilities that gave Death God Solomon.
It's also possible that the Valkyrie's words just now gave Solomon the illusion that he and the Valkyrie had a good relationship.
With his connection to the Valkyrie, he reported this to the higher-ups in Hell. Once they found out, they would definitely give it serious consideration, since he wasn't just an ordinary Intern Death God, but someone who knew the Valkyrie and was Intern Death God a friend by Valkyrie.
Making such a person Level One Death God in Hell would do no harm to Hell.
As for his performance, before he started to slack off, his performance was outstanding enough.
After giving up, I haven't done any Hell bounty quests for a long time. In the past two years, I've only taken on one bounty quest: [Lich Brandon].
Oh, and she even helped Venus with a bounty mission.
The performance was also quite good.
Becoming Level One Death God and having a formal position means his salary will be paid monthly, right? If so, what's the difference between that and receiving a pension? The position of Level One Death God isn't very appealing to him.
However, if he could advance like the Grim Reaper of Hell, then this Level One Death God title would mean much more to him.
Once he advances to the Level Six Death God, he can enter the God Realm as the Grim Reaper of Hell and personally seek out the Valkyrie.
Give the Valkyrie a surprise.
The black dragon's identity didn't surprise her. His status as the Grim Reaper of Hell should be enough to intimidate him, right? These days, who doesn't have a divine position? The Grim Reaper is a god too.
The idea is good, but I reckon the promotion won't be as easy as he imagines.
It seems we still need to find a way to collect the debt from the Valkyrie.
I don't expect to get it back, but at the very least I want that Valkyrie Sophia to know that even if she's in the realm of the gods and I can't enter, I can still find someone else to collect my debt from her.
Lance thought of the Heroic Spirit God King Brude Donahue.
This guy is a god from the God of War lineage, he should know the Valkyrie Sophia. Should I summon him and ask him to help collect the debt? After thinking about it, Lance temporarily gave up the idea. He asked Brude Donahue help, Brude Donahue would probably take the opportunity to make some outrageous demands.
That guy is no good.
Even worse and more insidious than the Black Dragon.
When people turn bad, even a black dragon like him becomes irrelevant.
Lance transformed back into his dragon-human form, and since everything was alright for the time being, he took the young dragon out for a walk.
The chubby little boy from the Bronze Dragon family in Melbourne has already been defeated by the black dragon cub and should not reappear for the next two or three days.
The unforgettable smell from that Stink Bomb wouldn't dissipate for at least two or three days.
Where are we going?
Seeing Lance stand up, the young dragon casually asked a question.
"Let's go fishing."
"."
fishing?
Human Lance often goes home empty-handed when fishing. If you also go home empty-handed when fishing with Black Dragon, then aren't you a bit too similar to Human Lance?
She hasn't had many bad experiences lately; she always manages to catch fish when she goes fishing.
The evil dragon said it was a beginner's protection period.
There's a beginner protection period for fishing? I've never heard of that.
"A dragon fishing. Isn't that a bit strange?"
"What's strange?"
"Why don't you play mahjong with the Bronze Dragon Melbourne and the evil dragon Kelong? If you're short one player, I can fill in."
"Forget it, Goddess of Luck is a bit busy lately. Let's play mahjong with them again in a few days when Goddess of Luck's less busy."
Playing mahjong results in more losses than wins, offering no enjoyment whatsoever.
That makes sense.
Human Lance, loses more often than he wins at mahjong, and so does the black dragon. Doesn't that add another point of commonality? One point of commonality can be considered a coincidence, but multiple points of commonality are no longer coincidences and will definitely arouse suspicion. The evil dragon didn't seem to care. He pushed open the bedroom door, and Ticia and Ingrid stood on either side of the doorway. Upon seeing Lance, they instinctively bowed.
"Your Highness, we've had some desserts and fruit prepared for you. Would you like to try some?"
"OK."
The young dragon took out a lollipop from the Lucky Coin and handed it to Ingrid. "It's sweet but not cloying, and it also has health benefits. You can eat it like a stick, or cut it into small pieces and use it to make tea. Here, it's a reward from His Your Highness the Little Black Dragon."
Ingrid was almost crushed by the lollipop; she had never seen such a big lollipop before.
The Little Black Dragon Your Highness is definitely the Little Dragon Highness Little Dragon Highness. If he weren't, he wouldn't have given her a lollipop on their first meeting.
Little Dragon Highness is only generous to his own people; to outsiders, all the snacks he carries must be purchased with money.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
"You're welcome."
Lance patted the baby dragon's head, walked past it to the lobby on the first floor. The baby dragon took the plate from Ticia, followed behind Lance, picked up a dessert and put it in its mouth. It felt like it was gone before it even had a chance to taste it.
The baby dragon simply opened its mouth and poured all the desserts and fruits on the tray into it; there was no way around it, that's just how big a baby dragon's mouth is.
Now when she scares children, she calls them "little children" all the time.
Fortunately, no one knew she was Imperial Daughter of the Farolyn Empire.
To be honest, even if she told Ticia and Ingrid that she was Imperial Daughter of the Farolyn Empire, they probably wouldn't believe her now.
Which Imperial Daughter eats in one gulp?
What about royal etiquette? What about the elegance that belongs to Imperial Daughter?
Sigh. I'll have to practice how to eat elegantly when I turn back into a human.
I haven't had an elegant meal in a long time, and I've almost forgotten how to eat properly.
It's all because of that Smelly Imperial Sister Asina.
"Why are you two still here?"
Melbourne and Dragon Kelong were sitting on the sofa in the lobby on the first floor. Lance assumed the two guys had left.
What are you doing upstairs?
"I set up Defense Array for Lance. During the time his primordial spirit is out of his body, it is easy to attract unclean things. With Defense Array, we can prevent such things from taking over his body."
I'm going fishing near the Dragon God Temple, do you guys want to come?
"???"
Fishing?
What kind of fish can you catch with a black dragon?
If you want to eat fish, just roar at the lake.
Wait, is Black Dragon Fishing?
Kelong thought of something sinister, namely the Human Lance.
The first time he invaded the dream of the Human Lance, Human Lance was fishing.
They were catching grass carp and Human Lance carp, and even the Black Dragon was fishing?
Oh, they're good friends, or maybe they just share the same stench.
Bad habits are contagious.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Lance led me into this fishing trap, and once you're in, it's hard to get out. By the way, have any of you ever fished before?"
"Do you think we'd play this kind of pointless entertainment?"
"Come on, I'll show you around."
Do you think we'd be so bored as to watch you feed the fish?
"I have absolutely no interest in fishing."
About an hour later, on the lake not far from the Dragon God Temple, Lance, Melbourne, Kelong, and Young Dragon each had a fishing rod in hand and sat at their fishing spots by the lake.
The fishing rods that Melbourne and Kelong were loaned to them by Lance.
One gold coin per hour.
If you catch a fish, you can use it for free; if you don't, you get one gold coin per hour.
Fishing isn't difficult, especially for beginners. All you need to know is how to cast, read the float, and hook the lugs. Beginners don't need to adjust the float; as long as the float floats, that's fine.
Since it was their first time fishing, Melbourne and Kelong were a little nervous. When they saw the float sink, they would lift the rod, but naturally, they caught nothing.
The young dragon prepared the bait area, and after only a few casts, she caught a fish.
The whooshing sound of water cutting reached the young dragon's ears, and for the first time, she found the sound somewhat pleasant.
In Melbourne and Kelong, people watched as the young arowana rods were bent into a bow shape by the large fish in the lake, and their eyes showed a strange look. In particular, the sound of the fishing line cutting through the water made them a little itchy.
The young dragon is still playing with fish. What fish is it playing with? It's a lake fish, not a sea fish. How much strength can it have? Showing off.
The baby dragon is definitely showing off.
Stimulate the Black Dragon.
Lance was indeed provoked. If he were to back down in front of two newbies, it would look really bad.
He misses Whale Girl a little.
At this point, he couldn't wait for the Whale Girl to put fish on his hook. The dragon cub had already started catching fish, and he, a fully equipped fishing expert, couldn't keep baiting the hook forever.
We need to increase the strength of Melbourne and Kelong, those two giants.
It's gone under! Lance sets the hook.
Waaaaah—
The sound of the fishing line cutting through the water and the deep bend of the fishing rod as Lance, sitting on the tackle box, got up to play the fish, moving it forward and backward, exciting both Melbourne and Kelong.
After playing for about half an hour, Lance finally pulled the fish out of the water, and the young dragon, already quite sensible, picked up the landing net and started scooping it up.
"It's been a long time since I've caught such a big fish. This fish looks like it weighs seventy or eighty pounds. I'll keep it for dinner!"
Seventy or eighty pounds?!
It's really big.
Damn it, how did Black Dragon manage to slip up here? How come the pole didn't break?
Where's the tangent? Keep trying!
I'm definitely going to catch a fish bigger than that black dragon today!
It weighs at least 200 pounds!
People in Melbourne and Kelong who used to fish for fun are now taking it seriously.
The young dragon placed the fish in the fish basket and glanced sideways at Melbourne and Kelong.
Don't these two adult dragons realize that the evil dragon is the problem? The evil dragon is an adult dragon, after all.
What difference is there between a fish weighing seventy or eighty pounds and a feather to a fully grown dragon like him? He could have just flown up, but he chose to play the fish. This was clearly teasing the Bronze Dragon and the Nightmare Dragon Colon. The two of them, who said fishing was boring, didn't even think of this. It seems they were led astray by the evil dragon.
It seems like two more fishermen are about to emerge from among the adult dragons. I just wonder if they'll be able to catch any fish. It was her first time fishing, but she caught quite a few.
The young dragon cleaned its claws, picked up its fishing rod, and went fishing again.
About half an hour later, the young dragon heard a howl and turned around to see that the Bronze Dragon Melbourne had caught a fish. Overwhelmed with excitement, he flung the fish out of the lake and onto the shore.
Then the young dragon saw Melbourne's smile freeze instantly, and a look of confusion appeared in his blue vertical pupils.
The young dragon was delighted to see this.
Melbourne was probably wondering why his fishing steps were different from those of the black dragon.
A flying fish prevented him from enjoying the pleasure of playing with it.
"Why do I feel like I didn't catch anything at all?"
"Playing fish is essential; how can you feel a sense of accomplishment without playing fish?"
"."
He said he felt something was missing, and it turned out he hadn't played the fish properly. He needed to control his strength so that when he caught a fish, it wouldn't just fly up into the water.
Get the fish.
"Kelong, we've all caught fish, you're the only one left."
"Shut up, don't speak so loudly, you're scaring away all the fish I've gathered here."
Kelong stared at his fishing float and angrily denounced Melbourne.
Before Heilong could even mock him, that wicked Melbourne started mocking him first.
They fished for the entire morning.
Around noon, Kelong also caught a fish, and like Melbourne, he simply flew it ashore.
I didn't experience the joy of fishing.
Around 12 o'clock, Ingrid came to the lakeside to call Youlong back for dinner.
Lance went along too.
In the afternoon, Lance was preparing to take the baby dragon back to Black Dragon Island when Melbourne and Kelong contacted him and invited him to go fishing, but he said he didn't have time.
Melbourne and Kelong asked him to sell them a set of fishing gear.
Lance sold a set of fishing gear for 300 gold coins.
Two sets total 600 gold coins.
His fishing gear is worth the price.
The fishing line, fishing rod, fishing box, and everything else were included. He didn't ask for an exorbitant price; he only earned a small service fee.
"Didn't you two say this morning that fishing was boring?"
"It's really not interesting. If it were interesting, we wouldn't be so bored as to sit there fishing."
"???"
Kelong's words almost confused Lance.
After a moment's thought, he understood what Kelong meant.
To put it simply: fishing is completely pointless. I've been watching it from morning till night and haven't found anything interesting about it.
