Chapter 146: Becoming A Dragon Knight Once In This Lifetime

Obitos put Chen Zhao on his head. It was the perfect size for Chen Zhao to sit on.

Chen Zhao felt that Obitos was more approachable than his parents. However, his head wasn’t that comfortable. The scales that stuck out were very hard. It felt like sitting on a sharp, rocky beach.

Of course, Chen Zhao wouldn’t complain about this pain. He felt like he was a dragon knight now. Riding this majestic and terrifying fire dragon satisfied his dreams. He still needed armor and a sword though.

Maybe he could borrow a set from Blackie’s house.

The next moment, he saw a conflict below him. Two demons were crazily attacking each other. Due to Chen Zhao’s limited knowledge of demons, he couldn’t tell what kinds of demons they were.

One of them was like a mix between a lion and dog. It was huge, but the other one was multiple times bigger. It looked like an octopus mutant where the upper half was a human and the lower half was an octopus.

The two demons had such a large difference in size, but there was no clear winner. They were equal matches.

Amidst their intense fight, a huge shadow suddenly loomed over them. The two demons stopped immediately. They saw a huge dragon stopped above them, wings flapping powerfully.

There was also a man on the dragon’s head. The human had neither a demon’s aura nor a dead aura.

A living being! This thought immediately appeared in the two demons’ minds.

This living being must be very powerful. Otherwise, how could he tame a dragon to ride?

“Respected Living Lord, how may we help you?”

“Oh, nothing. Keep fighting. We’re just watching.” Chen Zhao waved his hand. “I won’t interrupt your fighting.”

Suddenly, Chen Zhao saw a thick snake wrapped around the lion dog’s waist. It was probably as thick as Chen Zhao’s arm and had nine heads.

Was that a hydra? Chen Zhao knew that hydras from Greek mythology really existed in Hell. However, they were quite rare.

The hydra around the lion dog demon obviously wasn’t as awesome as the ones in Greek mythology though.

He remembered that many formulas in the demonic medicine book required heads of the hydra.

“The demon on that side, what’s your name?”

“Living Lord, I am Badach,” the lion dog demon said.

The octopus demon got a little worried. If the living being sided with Badach, he would be in trouble.

“Would you sell that hydra?”

“Uh…” Badach’s first thought was, This living being wants to fight over the hydra too?

The octopus was even more worried now because their fight had begun because of this hydra.

“I can pay you demonic crystals.”

“Can I ask your price?” Badach was worried that Chen Zhao would rob him, but he still wanted to try and know the price.

“Quote me your price. I’m not really familiar with the prices in Hell.”

“Respected Living Lord, will you really pay with demonic crystals?”

“Yes.”

“Fifty years’ worth?” Badach suggested fearfully.

“Forty years.”

“Sure,” Badach immediately accepted this price. What he was afraid of was whether Chen Zhao would forcefully take the hydra, not if he would give demonic crystals or not.

Since Chen Zhao bargained with him, it was less likely he would just forcefully take it.

When Chen Zhao took out a pile of demonic crystals, Badach and the octopus’s eyes widened. It was a huge fortune. They probably wouldn’t make so many demonic crystals in their entire lives.

There was even a perfect crystal—a huge one!

“Wait!” the octopus suddenly yelled. “Respected Living Lord, the hydra isn’t his. I found it first. He stole it from me! You should pay me, not that despicable and lowly thing.”

“But the hydra is on him, not you.”

The octopus tried to approach Chen Zhao to persuade him. Obitos lowered his head and opened his maw at him.

“B*stard, move back! Do you want to die?” Obitos threatened.

The octopus felt wronged. He actually was reasonable.

“I don’t care about your conflict. I just know that I will receive what I want. Take care of your own conflict.” Chen Zhao didn’t care which demon would win or lose.

The octopus didn’t dare do anything to Chen Zhao either. After watching Chen Zhao and Badach exchange items, he turned to the latter.

Stealing the hydra and demonic crystals were the same. They’d completed the exchange, but that didn’t mean that Badach could take the demonic crystals away.

After getting the hydra, Chen Zhao hopped onto Obitos and they flew away in the sky.

This hydra was very, very weak. It wasn’t an adult yet, but hydras were very intelligent. It knew who to fear and respect.

You didn’t have to kill a hydra to use its head in medicine. You only had to cut off a head and it would grow back. Like the myths said, it wouldn’t die unless all nine heads were cut off at once.

However, the young hydra was pretty weak, so Chen Zhao didn’t plan on using its head yet.

“From now on, you’ll be called Little Nine.”

Little Nine wasn’t very brave. Its nine heads only had one mind too, unlike the three hellhounds that had three independent minds.

Little Nine wasn’t a demon. It was only a Hell creature, so Chen Zhao only had to toss it into the spatial ring to take it away from Hell.

…

When he got home, David, Fali, Sienna, and Chris were all there.

“Chen, you’re finally back. You’ve been missing for 24 hours.”

“I heard from Sienna and Chris that you vanished before their eyes and went missing. Is that true?”

“Where did you go?”

“I can’t answer your question. It’s a secret.” Chen Zhao sprawled onto the sofa. “Get me some food. I’m so tired.”

“Why can’t you tell us?”

“Everyone has their own secrets. Let me have my own secrets, alright?”

“Fine…” They could only accept the fact that Chen Zhao didn’t want to say anything.

“Chen, I found some information.”

“What?”

“I discovered that a deposit of $5,000 in Deppler’s account that is really suspicious. It’s from the boss at the Demington Chemical Factory.”

“The chemical factory’s boss?”

“Yes, it was a month ago, or three days after Ken stole the wine factory’s account book.”
