Chapter 46

At this moment, Long Yi left the Dragon God Space, having fought for three days almost without rest, which greatly drained his energy. Although he had gained a lot, this level of training was still quite taxing for him, even as a giant.

Dazed, he left the dormitory and ran into Wesley, who was hurrying over.

Seeing Long Yi, Wesley immediately came up to him with a mysterious look.

"Brother Long, Brother Long, I have some good news to tell you," Wesley whispered.

"Ah—what good news?" Long Yi yawned, his eyes almost watering from fatigue.

"Do you remember the toothbrush? I've been busy with it lately, and I sold the manufacturing rights to my big brother. My big brother offered 10,000 gold coins! Plus 15% of the profits as a commission!"

Seeing Wesley shaking a large bag, Long Yi's eyes immediately widened.

No wonder the ancients said 'money opens the eyes,' it turns out that seeing money really does make your eyes open wide.

Taking the heavy money bag from Wesley, Long Yi was so excited that he really wanted to go on a large shopping spree to celebrate. However, in this world where entertainment resources were extremely scarce, there wasn't much that Long Yi liked.

Of course, if he had to say, gold was always one of Long Yi's favorite things.

Sometimes Long Yi couldn't help but wonder if the gods, when creating the giants, had also given them some characteristics of dragons, such as a love for gold and gems. This seemed particularly evident in Long Yi.

Wesley, seeing Long Yi's expression, was also very happy. This was his first successful business deal!

Wesley came from a noble family that focused on commerce. Although he dreamed of becoming a dragon knight, the merchant genes seemed deeply rooted. In the past, he came to the Dragon Knight Academy with a naive ambition, but after meeting Long Yi, Aileen, and even Elsa, he suddenly realized that while hard work was important, without the right talent, all efforts would be in vain.

But Wesley had talent.

His talent was making money, gathering information, and rational analysis. Wesley had already decisively shifted his focus to these areas. He still had the dream of becoming a dragon knight, but not every dragon knight needed to fight on the front lines.

When Wesley brought the toothbrush back to his family to discuss the partnership, his father was greatly relieved, as this child had finally given up his unrealistic dreams and returned to the right path. Although Wesley's father also supported his dreams, dreams were one thing, but reality was harsh. In this world, some stages were not meant for them. To achieve success, one had to find their own stage.

Faced with the toothbrush, Wesley's family keenly sensed a business opportunity, but the prospects were unclear, so they gave a cautious offer. Wesley did not argue much, as he knew he needed to rely on his family's power at first, but this was not a problem. Time was long, and they had plenty of opportunities.

10,000 gold coins didn't seem like much to Wesley, but for Long Yi, who was used to being poor, this huge sum was very attractive. He decisively found Aileen, and the three of them went to the most luxurious hotel in the academy city for a lavish meal, spending a full 500 gold coins! They thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of spending money like water!

At the table, all three were already full, except for Eight Immortals, who continued to eat voraciously.

"By the way, Brother Long, do you know? Recently, a very powerful person has appeared in the Dragon God Space. This person always creates a 100-point battle space and has won over 70 consecutive battles. It's said that on the first day, this person beat one of the Three Clowns' one-star clown to the point where he couldn't take care of himself. He hasn't appeared in the Dragon God Space since then."

Wesley began his daily routine of spreading news, which was his favorite thing. Since he decided to develop his strengths, he had become very diligent in gathering information.

"Wow, so powerful, not losing a single battle. Isn't that as strong as Brother Long?" Aileen looked at Long Yi in surprise.

"Not just as strong, I think it's the same person," Wesley smiled and asked.

"Of course, it's me," Long Yi admitted. Although he didn't like standing in the middle of the street to announce it, he didn't plan to hide it either. There was nothing to hide.

"Really? It's you?" Wesley was surprised. He had only guessed based on various evidence that this person was very strong and vaguely resembled Long Yi, so he had just mentioned it casually, but he didn't expect it to actually be Long Yi.

"Of course, who else could be so mighty and strong!" Long Yi laughed.

"Then, Brother Long, don't you already have over 7,000 credits?" Aileen suddenly asked softly. First-year students needed only 60 credits to advance, and now Long Yi could advance immediately if he wanted to! This was the rule of the Dragon Knight Academy. As long as you had the combat ability, you always had the opportunity to advance. Aileen was worried that if Long Yi suddenly advanced, what would happen to them?

But Long Yi shook his head.

"Far from it. There's something I really like in the Dragon God Space. The seller has priced it at 10,000 credits, and I'm working hard to save up! Recently, more and more difficult opponents have appeared, and some have even left messages inviting me to join their teams. What's the point? I'm already busy, and I don't have time to deal with them."

Long Yi, while speaking, opened the messaging function on his bracelet, glanced at it, and decisively deleted a bunch of messages. He didn't know any of them and wasn't very interested in getting to know them yet.

"Long Yi, if you really like it, you can leave a message for the seller and ask if you can buy it with gold coins," Wesley suggested.

Long Yi was stunned.

"Can you send messages? Can you communicate directly?" Long Yi suddenly paused. Could this be a magical phone? If it had such a good function, Aileen might have avoided a beating earlier. Of course, now it seemed that the beating was worth it.

"Only in the Dragon God Space," Wesley explained.

No wonder, who had the leisure to enter the Dragon God Space at that time.

But to be honest.

Indeed, the thoughts of rich people and poor people are different. Long Yi's first reaction was to work hard to earn credits to exchange for the engine, while Wesley's first reaction was to contact the seller privately and buy it with money.

Damn, I'm a rich man now!

He decisively opened his bracelet, entered the Dragon God Space, found the seller of the engine, and sent a message.

In a moment, a message came back.

"10,000 gold coins, on the condition that you fight me."

Cough, cough, cough!

No way, so direct? Just 10,000 gold coins?

Too cheap!

Maybe no one in this world understood, but Long Yi knew the value of the aircraft engine! Even if it was 100,000 gold coins, it would still be worth it!

Decisively, he started the battle!

Long Yi paid 100 credits to create a room, and almost simultaneously, a slender figure appeared in the battle space.

It was a mermaid.

Curling blue hair, her chest barely covered by shells, one hand holding a large pearl, from which a brilliant light flowed like a mist.

The other hand held a large trident, entirely green, shimmering with a strange light. If you listened carefully, you could hear the sound of the tide coming from the trident.

Her waist was slender, but her lower body merged into a beautiful fish tail, which moved in the air as if in water.

"Anonymous, you're really anonymous. You've earned at least 7,000 credits, can't you at least dress up a bit? This black and dull look is really tacky."

The girl spoke, her voice resonant and pleasant to the ear.

"Can the appearance be changed?"

Long Yi had never thought about this. He assumed the appearance was fixed.

"Of course!" The girl covered her mouth and laughed.

Long Yi opened his bracelet and looked carefully. Indeed, there were a bunch of options that required credits to change. It seemed that the Three Clowns and the mermaid had paid credits to get their fancy outfits.

"Let's talk about this later. I want to ask you, where did you find the metal object you're selling?"

Long Yi asked, this was what he most urgently wanted to know.

"You win, and I'll tell you everything."

The mermaid girl smiled.

"Alright, let's go!"

As soon as Long Yi finished speaking, the girl raised her hand, and the pearl rose into the air. The air was suddenly filled with moisture, and in a moment, Long Yi found himself on the surface of the sea!

Illusion?

His feet were only a few inches in the water, but the cold sensation reminded Long Yi that this was real seawater! The mermaid girl slowly sank into the water and disappeared from sight!

Long Yi thought the girl's appearance was just for show, but it turned out to be high-quality!

Suddenly, a sense of danger came from below. Without thinking, Long Yi rushed forward, and a large trident with the girl emerged from the water.

Long Yi was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat, and his expression changed.

If that trident had hit him, it would have been the end of his life!

What a vicious girl!

The girl missed and sank back into the water. Long Yi stared at the water, but it was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything.

His dragon aura reached its peak.

Dragon Roar Punch!

Roar!

A huge dragon head plunged into the water, causing a large splash, but the girl was nowhere to be seen. A light laugh came from behind.

"Hehe, I thought the legendary Anonymous was something special. Turns out you're just a fool. I made the mistake of using all my treasures. But it doesn't matter, your first time is mine!"

The girl pointed her trident at Long Yi and sank back into the water.

Long Yi immediately burst out laughing.

"I don't know if my first time is yours, but I want to know who your first time was with?"

The girl, who was hiding underwater, trembled. She immediately realized she had said something wrong.

Damn, who said anything about a first time!

The girl's aura suddenly surged, creating a huge whirlpool in the water, rushing straight at Long Yi!

At this moment, Long Yi smiled.

Perfect, she couldn't resist anymore. Long Yi pressed his hands down, and the whirlpool shot out, sending him flying into the air!

"Trying to tease me? Die, fool!"

"Sea Dragon Tooth Charge!"

A dragon language command.

The girl screamed, her trident glowing, enveloped in a large amount of water, like a giant drill, determined to pierce a hole in Long Yi!

But the drill met resistance.

Long Yi's hands.

This is impossible!

The girl was very confident in her attack. Not only could it pierce through human flesh, but even steel could be easily drilled through!

The trident was her proudest treasure. Although her strength was not enough to fully utilize its power, she couldn't believe that anyone could block her trident with bare hands!

Despite her disbelief, she saw it with her own eyes!

The giant bloodline in Long Yi's body was running at high speed, and his aura was concentrated in his hands, continuously resisting the force from the trident.

The Sea Dragon Tooth Charge was similar to the Dragon Tooth Crush that Long Yi had seen before, but it added the power of water. Honestly, the impact of the trident was very special. It looked like a powerful force, but in reality, it was as gentle as water, with a continuous and powerful aftereffect.

For Long Yi, who had seen water cut through steel, he didn't believe the nonsense that water was softer than iron. He had learned the story of water wearing away stone long ago and never underestimated the power of water.

With the giant bloodline unleashed, Long Yi's greatest advantage was his control over dragon aura. He could even sense the composition of the other's dragon aura!

Seeing her attack fail, the girl immediately withdrew her trident, and the light on it became even brighter, drawing in more water!

Long Yi took two steps back, spread his arms, and ran both his dragon aura and magic power, drawing in the water as well.

The girl was surprised and then laughed.

"Hehe, are you trying to learn my technique? Let's see who's stronger!"

"Sea Dragon Tooth Charge!"

She said, and the trident, enveloped in water, transformed into an even larger drill, rushing straight at Long Yi!

And Long Yi had already drawn in enough water!

I thank you, my dragon language teacher!

"Sea Dragon Tooth Charge!"
