"Are you interested in a triple mutated Frost Demon?"
"Sorry, I'm not interested."
In a dark forest, Lin Huang closed the black market mission page after replying to the message.
Since the beginning of November last year, Lin Huang's Life Fire had reached its limit of 300 meters. After more than a month of consolidation, he had stabilized his white flame-level combat strength in December and was ready to level up to crimson flame-level. However, it was already February and Lin Huang had yet to find a suitable tinder monster. His combat strength was stuck at white flame-level.
The reason was simple – Lin Huang was too picky about his Life Fire monster.
Firstly, it had to be a triple mutated monster or above. There were very few monsters in Division7 that fulfilled this condition. Moreover, many Monster Trainer families were eyeing this area, so there were even fewer monsters left.
Secondly, it had to be holy fire-level and could not be more than immortal-level rank-1. To be honest, a triple mutated monster was very powerful. If there was one that was more than immortal-level rank-1, Lin Huang might not be able to defeat it. If he really did that, it would not be a tinder but a suicide mission.
Thirdly, the tinder of the monster had to satisfy his needs. This condition reduced the number of choices that were originally in the single digits to almost zero.
Since it was difficult to find a suitable Life Fire monster in Division7, Lin Huang decided to go to the core zone.
The third safe zone in the core zone was four times bigger than Division7. Division7 could not compare to the expansion of the safe zone. Not only were the monsters more powerful, but the number of monsters was also a few times more than Division7.
Without lowering the requirements of his Life Fire monster, Lin Huang could only level up to holy fire-level in the core zone if he wanted to do so.
Just when he closed the black market page, Lin Huang sensed that a shadow had entered his territory. He smirked and looked towards the direction where the shadow came from.
After a while, Lin Xin came out from the dense branches. The faint silver glow beneath her feet faded. She had leveled up to silver-level.
Even in a level four wild zone, Lin Xin was not as flustered as before. She had successfully leveled up to silver-level two days ago and was now silver-level rank-3. She could even fight gold-level rank-3 monsters.
After Lin Xin appeared, a black figure slowly appeared. It was a girl in a black dress.
The triple mutated Demonic Witch was no different from a human in appearance. Lin Huang had been letting Lin Xin get familiar with her during this period of time. Initially, he wanted to leave Kelly or Tyrant, who was more familiar with Lin Xin, to protect her. However, their outfits and body shapes would attract too much attention in the academy. After thinking about it, he felt that the Witch was the most suitable choice. Moreover, the Witch could hide in Lin Xin's shadow and protect her at all times.
"Brother! Little Wu! "
After seeing Lin Huang and the Witch, Lin Xin leaped from the branches and landed steadily less than two meters away from Lin Huang.
"You did well this time." Lin Huang nodded in satisfaction. Lin Xin now had the ability to protect herself.
After summoning the Black Ink, the three of them stepped into it and disappeared from the dense forest.
After stepping out of the Black Ink, the three of them appeared at their home in Winter City.
This was the Demon Witch's first time here. She looked around curiously.
"Xin Er, bring the Witch around to familiarize herself with the environment." Lin Huang suggested while smiling.
"Brother, are you leaving tomorrow?" Lin Xin took a look at the calendar on her Emperor's Heart Ring.
"I'm meeting my friends the day after tomorrow but I want to go there earlier tomorrow. After all, I'm the one who invited them. It's not right for me to wait for them. " Lin Huang nodded. "There's still more than half a month to your winter break. Don't go anywhere. Enjoy your break or practice your gunfighting skills at home. I've booked the ticket back to the White Capital for you. They'll send you a message a day in advance to confirm your departure. "
"Alright then." Lin Xin knew that Lin Huang was not going to Division 3 this time. Instead, he was going to explore the ruins and would come back in March. She waved at the Witch and said, "Little Wu, I'll bring you around our home!"
…
The next night, foothold No.7B51 – Luo Tian City.
On the 131st floor of a luxurious hotel, Lin Huang stood on the balcony with a glass of green leaf juice in his hand while looking at the snowy scenery below. He opened the communication page on his Emperor's Heart Ring.
"I'm here. I'll gather at the lobby on the first floor of the Sky City Hotel at 9 a.m. sharp tomorrow. Don't be late."
After editing the message, Lin Huang selected four contacts and pressed the send button.
"Got it!"
"Got it."
…
Soon, the four of them replied one after another.
The next morning, Lin Huang woke up early as usual.
It was not even 8 a.m. when he finished his breakfast at the buffet restaurant. Lin Huang checked out of his room on the first floor and sat down at the café on the first floor. He ordered a cup of black coffee and started reading the news.
It had been less than 10 days since the end of the year. Most of the news was the same. There was nothing worth paying attention to. It was the same on the Hunter Forum. Most of the hunters chose to rest during this period of time. Naturally, there was not much news.
Since he was bored, Lin Huang tapped on a few social media tools. There were many pictures of food and scenery on his WeChat Moments. Lin Huang took a picture of himself drinking coffee and uploaded it.
Lin Xin was the first to like the post, followed by Yi Yeyu and the rest.
After closing his WeChat Moments, Lin Huang opened another social media tool called Weibo and looked at some of the news that he followed. Suddenly, he saw 'The Ugly Truth' again.
The latest news was posted before the end of the year. It was only two short sentences.
"There seems to be a battle between demigods in Division 1. Many islands on the Peaceful Ocean have collapsed … It's too far away. I can only see blurry pieces."
"A battle between demigods in Division 1?" Lin Huang frowned. He felt like he had missed something. Before he could think about it, a shadow sat on the sofa opposite him.
"You sure know how to enjoy life!" It was Li Lang whom Lin Huang had not seen for a long time. He was still wearing a white suit with a red bow on his neck. His hair looked like it had been polished.
"You're early." Lin Huang closed his social media page and smiled at his old friend.
"Of course, I've always been a punctual man!" Li Lang said in a serious tone and immediately bent down. He lowered his voice and asked, "Tell me, did you invite a pretty lady this time?"
"Yes, the lady from the Yi family whom you met the last time." Lin Huang nodded.
"…" Li Lang rolled his eyes. "Is there anyone else apart from her?"
"Her brother too." Lin Huang smiled.
"I meant a lady!" Li Lang corrected him.
"There's one more." Lin Huang nodded.
"Who is it?" Li Lang asked in anticipation.
"She's here!"
Lin Huang lifted his head and looked at the entrance of the hotel. A lady in a white trench coat and sunglasses happened to see him as well. He waved at her. She nodded and walked towards him.
"Who's this?" Li Lang did not recognize her.
Lin Huang and Li Lang immediately stood up and gave their seats to the lady.
Lin Huang then introduced them, "This is Ms. Leng Yuexin and this is my friend, Li Lang."
"Hi." Leng Yuexin took off her sunglasses and shook Li Lang's hand.
"The lady from the Leng family?!" Li Lang was stunned.
The three of them sat down again. Li Lang and Leng Yuexin had just finished their coffee when Yi Zheng and Yi Yeyu entered the hotel lobby.
Both of them had seen Lin Huang's post and walked straight to the cafe.
Yi Zheng wore a blue and black trench coat and looked very energetic.
Yi Yeyu, on the other hand, wore a navy blue laced dress with a knitted cardigan on the outside.
It was not even 8.40 a.m. yet and the five of them were already there. Lin Huang was the most casual among them as he wore a casual outfit.
After the introductions, Yi Zheng and Yi Yeyu ordered two cups of coffee as it was still early. The five of them started chatting casually.
The Yi siblings were familiar with Leng Yuexin as they had met each other at social events before.
As the five of them sat around the table, they attracted the attention of many people in the cafe.
"Lin Huang, you seem to have grown taller," Yi Yeyu teased.
"Yes, I'm 178 now. I'm about 180 with shoes." Lin Huang nodded. He was no longer the short guy two years ago.
"I wouldn't have noticed if you didn't mention it. He was a head shorter than me two years ago. Now, he's almost as tall as me." Yi Zheng then noticed Lin Huang's height.
The four of them had known Lin Huang two years ago and they had a clear memory of Lin Huang's height. Indeed, two years had passed and Lin Huang had grown from a teenager to an adult.
"Why are you still on white flame-level? I'm already on purple flame-level and Xiao Yu is already on crimson flame-level. She's about to level up to blue flame-level, "Yi Zheng asked curiously.
"The Life Fire monster that I'm looking for can't be found in Division7." Lin Huang shook his head helplessly.
"You're looking for a triple mutated Life Fire monster?!" The four of them looked at Lin Huang in shock.
"Yes." Lin Huang nodded.
"What's your white flame-level Life Fire monster?" Leng Yuexin was curious.
"The Blacksword Killer." Lin Huang was not telling the truth.
"That's awesome!" Li Lang did not know what to say. It was difficult for him to kill a double mutated monster but Lin Huang dared to challenge a triple mutated monster and even managed to kill it.
The three of them chatted for a while and got to know each other better. It was almost nine o 'clock when they finished their coffee.
"Where's the entrance? How long will it take to get there?" Yi Zheng looked at the time and asked. It was almost time for them to get down to business.
"Don't bother. I've already set the coordinates last night." Lin Huang brought the four of them out of the cafe and summoned his Black Ink in the hotel lobby. "We'll arrive at our destination after we step through this door."
