Chapter 1120: Chapter 1123: Harvest (Part 1)
A wall several meters thick, of course, requires walking several meters.
The two walked cautiously.
In case there were any traps inside, although they might not necessarily hurt them, it was still better to be safe than sorry.
But it seemed Dark Dragon was very confident in his defenses here, as he hadn’t set up any traps or mechanisms.
In fact, that was indeed the case.
First, there were several assassins with top-tier special forces strength guarding the entrance, making it hard even for An Feng and Dark Moon to kill them instantly.
Second, the lock on that door could only be opened with the key on him, by no one else.
Even a lock-picking expert had no way.
This was crafted by the top locksmith he could find.
The locksmith once said that even without the key, he himself couldn’t open it.
It’s just that Dark Dragon never expected that Ding Yueqiu would take the key from him to unlock the door.
And then become the leader of the Dark Dragon Club.
Why didn’t he expect it?
Because he thought that in this world, there was no one who could kill him.
Even more unexpected was that the one who killed him was Ding Yueqiu.
Ding Yueqiu!
Just a genius he cultivated.
Moreover, an assassin who would serve him in the future.
Only an entry-level King of Soldiers!
Why did he die at her hands!
And in such a baffling way.
Of course, Dark Dragon, who was already dead, naturally wouldn’t have this thought.
After all, who knows what thoughts dead people have.
But probably, this wouldn’t be wrong.
The two of them entered the room, with Lin Xi walking in front this time.
Even if there was any danger, he was confident he could handle it.
Ding Yueqiu, however, that was uncertain.
"Hmm?" Lin Xi stopped first.
The room wasn’t big, less than five or six square meters, with sensor lights that lit up when someone entered.
The air was a bit stuffy, probably not well-ventilated.
There was a table and a chair, with a few old books on the table and nothing else.
Next to them were two twenty-inch wooden boxes.
These were all the items in the entire room.
Lin Xi was the first to walk over and glanced at the books on the table.
"Hmm?"
Seeing the big characters on the cover, they were manuals.
"Invisibility Art, Stealth Art, Assassination Art!"
The names sounded pretty impressive.
Even Lin Xi, who normally wasn’t interested, couldn’t help but pick one up, showing a bit of interest.
Of course, the one he picked up was the Invisibility Art.
He could already see through things, and if he had the Invisibility Art, that would be even more formidable.
For example, stealthily watching someone bathe or something, he’d be able to watch openly in the future.
However, after flipping through a few pages, a trace of disappointment appeared on his face.
This Invisibility Art didn’t make a person fully invisible.
It just used the environment and other factors to greatly reduce others’ attention.
He thought it through and concluded it wasn’t as good as Gu Long’s hiding techniques.
As for the other two books, he flipped through them and found them to be ordinary manuals as well.
They didn’t live up to their names.
Even the ones passed down to him by the old man were better.
Casually tossing them aside, Lin Xi sat down on the nearby chair.
He wasn’t interested in the two wooden boxes next to him.
Just the leader of some assassins, what good stuff could he have?
Besides, he felt he lacked nothing at the moment.
No, women of a divine level, he wouldn’t mind having more of those.
Ding Yueqiu, seeing the three manuals Lin Xi tossed aside, her eyes almost gleamed with green light.
"Master, can I have these three?" she asked softly.
Lin Xi glanced at her, "They’re all yours!"
He certainly knew that most of Ding Yueqiu’s strength came from these three books.
It’s just that what was taught to her had likely been greatly reduced by Dark Dragon.
It was clear Dark Dragon was holding back.
Afraid his subordinates would surpass him!
This was the benefit Ding Yueqiu mentioned to Lin Xi before.
When club members advanced from special forces to King of Soldiers level, they would receive more or less assassination techniques and hiding methods from Dark Dragon.
These things significantly enhanced their strength.
Obtaining the three manuals, Ding Yueqiu was obviously very happy.
Of course, she could understand why her master wasn’t interested.
The master’s kind of hiding techniques, in such a crowd, with even Dark Dragon present, no one could notice anything.
So, not being interested in this Invisibility Art was quite normal.
As for wanting to learn that technique from the master, she did want to.
But she knew if the master didn’t proactively teach her, she wouldn’t mention it.
If he wanted to teach her, he naturally would.
"Master, I’ll go take a look!" She put away the three books and walked over to the two wooden boxes.
Neither box was locked.
Dark Dragon probably thought no one would come in.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have left those three manuals so plainly on the table.
With this mindset, the room wasn’t likely to have any hidden compartments.
When Ding Yueqiu opened the first box, it contained a dagger, a handgun, and an extremely thin piece of innerwear?
That innerwear, at first glance, didn’t fit Dark Dragon’s build at all.
It must be for a girl!
"So poor!" Lin Xi muttered to himself, "And a pervert, at that."
But Ding Yueqiu still looked very pleased.
Though the master wasn’t interested, she was very satisfied.
This dagger was quite famous.
It’s said to be made from an extraterrestrial meteorite, capable of cutting through anything, even rebar isn’t a challenge.
Of course, that’s a bit exaggerated.
As for that handgun, it leaned towards being an antique.
That innerwear, however, was quite extraordinary.
Made of special materials, it’s weightless and has incredible defense.
When she opened the second box, Lin Xi suddenly stood up from the chair and stepped over to Ding Yueqiu in two strides.
"This is a good find!" he couldn’t help but exclaim.
Because the entire box was basically filled with money.
There were US dollars, renminbi, and more than a dozen gold bars.
Yes, a box full to the brim.
Ding Yueqiu was stunned in place, not because of the box’s contents, but because of the master’s reaction.
She knew that even though the box was worth tens of millions, its value still paled in comparison to the dagger, handgun, and innerwear.
For instance, that dagger was bought at an auction a few years ago for nearly fifty million.
That handgun, especially that innerwear, was several times more valuable than the dagger.
Suddenly, Ding Yueqiu was moved.
She thought the master was doing this deliberately.
Deliberately leaving these good items for her, for her safety!
Thinking this, she didn’t notice Lin Xi’s expression, or maybe she just ignored it, genuinely feeling it was heartfelt, without a hint of pretense.
