"......Oh......" Looking at the building in front of him, Wang Dong took a deep breath, then held his forehead, looking at Zhao Zhe with a worried expression and said, "This is the headquarters?"
"Cough, no, no, you misunderstood, really." Zhao Zhe quickly explained, if someone got this misunderstanding, the reputation of the Huntu Sect as being unreliable would never be cleaned up—although it was already dirty.
"This is just a transit station. How could our headquarters be set up here?" Zhao Zhe touched his nose, a bit helplessly explaining.
"I see, that scared me for a moment. I thought the neighborhood committee was such a powerful organization." Wang Dong nodded in realization, then showed an embarrassed smile, scratched his head, and followed Zhao Zhe and the others into the building—Sunshine Garden Neighborhood Committee.
Following Zhao Zhe up to the third floor of the neighborhood committee, they entered a room filled with clutter. Zhao Zhe found a dusty, old door.
There was only one door, a door frame, and a door panel, like Doraemon's Anywhere Door, except Doraemon's door was pink, and this one was brown.
"......What is this?" Wang Dong blinked, then looked at Zhao Zhe with a puzzled expression.
"Um, a teleportation door." Zhao Zhe, while patting his pocket, said without turning around, a statement that almost made Wang Dong spit out a mouthful of blood.
"What... what... what!?" Wang Dong widened his eyes, looking at the door, then swallowed and said nervously, "A teleportation door? This isn't Doraemon!"
"Um, I'm not quite sure about this either, but the Alliance started promoting it about five or six years ago." Zhao Zhe shrugged and explained, "And we don't really care where it came from, as long as it works."
As he spoke, he pulled out an old-fashioned key from his pocket and gently inserted it into the keyhole of the door, slowly turning it.
With a soft "click," Zhao Zhe pulled out the key, then grabbed the doorknob, turned it, and pulled.
"Wow!" Elric let out a surprised exclamation, because what appeared in the door frame was not the other side of the door with a pile of dusty tables and chairs, but a long corridor.
[Little Ai, Little Ai, do you know what this is!] Wang Dong excitedly said to Aisibel in his mind, [So cool!]
[Um, it's just a regular teleportation door.] Aisibel's voice was full of helplessness, [And it's a rather old model, it seems my previous guess was correct.]
[What guess?] Wang Dong asked casually while following Zhao Zhe and the others into the corridor, looking around.
The corridor Wang Dong was in was not very long, about ten meters, with dim lighting on both sides, giving it a feeling of an underground passage.
[The planet you are on is considered relatively backward.] Aisibel bluntly said, [As far as I know, this spatial door technology has been updated many times, but your planet is still using this old model.]
[Can't it be considered nostalgic?] Wang Dong mumbled. To be honest, as an Earthling, he really didn't want to admit that Earth was a "weak" and "backward" planet in the vast universe.
[If you want to put it that way, it's fine, but if you could use the safest and most stable weapons now, would you still 'nostalgically' use those that have a high chance of exploding or jamming?] Aisibel's teasing voice echoed in Wang Dong's mind.
"Alright, the next part is not our responsibility." Zhao Zhe shrugged and said to Wang Dong, "After all, we are just pawns."
"Uh... what's next..." Wang Dong looked around a bit helplessly, surely they wouldn't just let him go by himself?
"The next part is... " Zhao Zhe was about to say something when he was interrupted by a cold voice.
"The next part is my responsibility." A woman in a black tight-fitting suit walked over, glanced at Wang Dong, and said coldly, "Let's go, they are waiting for you."
"Ah... oh!" Wang Dong swallowed nervously, in this unfamiliar environment, a cold-voiced person was indeed more likely to make him nervous than a gentle one.
[Little Ai, why did I meet the big boss right away?] Wang Dong asked Little Ai a bit uneasily, after all, to Wang Dong, Little Ai was the "elder" who had given him the inheritance.
[Click click~] Little Ai let out a unique laugh, not like a human's "hahaha," but a simple "click click" to express her amusement.
[Isn't this a simple question? As I said before, because your planet is considered a very backward and weak planet in the Star Domain Alliance, the death of a Demon Hunter on your planet naturally draws the attention of the higher-ups.] Aisibel, after all, was a "senior Demon Hunter" who had lived for many years and once governed a territory, so she was quite adept at such matters, [And more importantly, what benefits did you gain from killing a Demon Hunter?]
While the two were communicating, the woman had already led Wang Dong through several different spatial doors and finally stopped at the entrance of a large hall, saying slowly, "Go in."
"Ah... oh!" Wang Dong nodded nervously, then gently pushed the door, nervously sticking his head in and softly said, "Excuse me~"
He slowly moved in, but the dark, spacious hall made Wang Dong shrink his neck, feeling an inexplicable sense of tension.
However, this darkness only lasted for a moment. The vampire blood in Wang Dong's body was unafraid of darkness, and it was like a "special effect switch" in a movie. The next moment, Wang Dong felt as if he was in a brightly lit banquet hall.
This hall was like a courtroom, and Wang Dong's position was like the defendant's stand, in the center of the hall. On the surrounding tiered "audience seats," about a dozen old men were scattered, sitting.
"Um... hello?" Wang Dong swallowed, noticing that all the old men were staring at him expressionlessly, he awkwardly raised his hand.
"Oh? You can see in the dark array, did you awaken a dark ability? No, I don't sense any dark aura from you." An old man sitting in the front left frowned, asking Wang Dong a question and quickly answering it himself.
Wang Dong blinked, then looked at the group of old men with bright eyes, feeling his scalp tingle.
"Cough, everyone, don't scare the little guy." Suddenly, an old man in a red coat coughed and said, "I am Yujing of the Huntu Sect. Little guy, I have a few questions for you..."

"Ah, so I'm on the bandwagon now." Wang Dong sighed, then looked at the problem set in front of him with distress, scratching his head in frustration. He wasn't very good at studying.
"Click click." Aisibel, lying on the bed, let out a pleasant laugh, then said to Wang Dong, "You don't really need to study. After all, once you enter the Star Domain Alliance, everything you are learning now will be meaningless. Instead of wasting time studying, you might as well focus on improving your combat skills."
"I know, but..." Wang Dong scratched his head, recalling the day when the old men, after asking him some questions and learning that he had inherited the Demon Hunter's legacy, were almost ecstatic.
"Little Ai, what you said seems to be true..." Wang Dong sighed, "Earth is really very weak in the Star Domain Alliance."
"The planet you are on is considered a micro-demon level, so the number of people who can become Demon Hunters is extremely rare." Aisibel shrugged and said, "So, the birth of a Demon Hunter like you is an extremely rare resource."
"Is that so." Wang Dong threw the pen aside and leaned back on the bed, placing his hand on his forehead, muttering, "Ah, it feels like my world has been completely overturned in an instant."
Wang Dong couldn't say whether the current situation was good or bad. If he hadn't experienced these few days, he might have been forced to work due to poor academic performance, and it would be low-paying physical labor.
However, now, being involved in a world where "power" is the premise, Wang Dong felt a bit at a loss—how could a person who has always loved peace survive in a cruel world?
"Don't worry, Wang Dong." Aisibel gently snuggled into Wang Dong's arms, her young face full of unparalleled confidence, "You have my inheritance, so your growth speed is at a BUG level!"
