Chapter 144 - Remuneration

The little girl stretched her back and asked: "What's your name?"

"Liu Ping"

"Very good, Liu Ping, what's the situation now?"

"We're completing an escort mission — — actually, we're also running for our lives"

"Running for our lives? I'm not good at running for my life ... I got it! "

Andrea took out a whistle, put it in her mouth and blew.

— — -without any sound.

But Andrea scowled and covered her ears with both hands.

"So noisy, he probably heard my call already, let's wait here for a bit." she said.

"Wait for who?" Liu Ping asked.

"Someone who's good at running away." Andrea answered.

The void of space moved a bit.

A dirty little boy jumped out and complained: "Andrea! I'm digging for treasure, I already told you not to call me if there's nothing important! "

"My friend needs to run away from here, you have to help." Andrea said.

"Ah?"

The little boy glanced at everyone and scoffed: "I can help, but what can he give me in return?"

Andrea smacked his head and said unhappily, "You're helping me, and you still want a reward?"

The little boy held his head and said: "Ah! Don't hit me! I don't want any reward this time, alright? "

"That's more like it." Andrea said with satisfaction.

The little boy looked at everyone: "Luckily there aren't many of you, I can take you away from here."

His figure changed, and he turned into a seven-meter-long green dragon on the spot.

"Get on, get on my back." the green dragon called out to everyone.

"Wait a minute." Hua Qingkong looked at the dragon and spoke with a serious expression: "First of all, we thank you for your help, but if we fly over, it's too easy to expose ourselves, we don't recommend flying under such circumstances."

"Who said I'm going to fly?" the green dragon was surprised.

"Then — —"

"Just tell me your destination, I'll take you there, don't ask anything else, you won't understand even if you do."

"Alright, we need to go over that mountain range, follow the river and head west until we reach another human city."

"Got it, get on, don't waste any time." the green dragon urged them.

Everyone quickly jumped onto the dragon's back.

Liu Ping saw that Andrea was still sleepy, so he carried her onto the green dragon's back and asked softly, "How are you? Something happend?"

Andrea leaned on his shoulder and said telepathically, "No, I'm too tired. This contract can wake me up, but your soul power isn't strong enough to support my appearance."

"Why don't you go back and rest first?" Liu Ping said.

"Wait a little longer. I have to help you suppress this guy. Otherwise, it will demand an astronomical amount of wealth from you. If you don't give it to him, it will directly send you to the devils to exchange for money" Andrea said.

"Is it short of money?" Liu Ping asked.

"The dragon race will always lack money." Andrea said.

Suddenly, a line of burning words appeared:

[You've discovered the secret of the dragon race.]

[Firstly, the Dragon Clan uses words to cast spells. Secondly, the Dragon Clan will always lack money. Wealth is their eternal goal.]

[You've received 2 Role Points.]

[Current Role Points: 2/10.]

[Please continue to work hard. When you reach 10 Role Points, you will unlock a new Mystic-type ability.]

Liu Ping finished reading and said, "The brand-new skill you're talking about, is it the 'popular actor' who apologized and begged for forgiveness?"

Another line of burning words appeared:

[That's not the case. This time, once you've received 10 Points. This sequence will provide you with a real acting ability!]

Liu Ping finally had some expectations. He nodded and said, "Alright, I'll work hard to discover all kinds of secrets."

The green dragon said, "Everyone, sit tight. An extremely rare free service in history has begun. Not only does it not charge any money, but it will also waste a dragon's time for you for free!"

"Cut the crap." Andrea kicked it.

"Alright, let's go." the green dragon said sulkily.

The green dragon spread its claws and ran quickly through the mountains. Its speed was as fast as lightning.

In order to save time, the green dragon did not take any detours. If it encountered water, it would step on it. If it encountered a cliff, it would fly straight up and continue moving forward.

Everyone was almost Thrown off several times. However, this lightning-fast speed actually had its benefits — —

They quickly crossed the mountain.

They ran along the rugged path at the top of the mountain. In less than half an hour, they could see a majestic city on the horizon.

"Be careful!" Hua Qingkong said.

A sentry post appeared in front of them.

The corpses of a few human soldiers were casually thrown on the ground. In their place was a group of fully armed devils.

The green dragon did not slow down and went straight to the sentry post. It kept chanting:

"Stinky devils, you can't see me, you can't see me!"

A line of burning words appeared in the air:

[You've been affected by the 'Natural Dragon Spirit Hex– Invisibility' disappearing from the devils' sight.]

Liu Ping looked at the devils and saw that they were indeed indifferent to the green dragon's appearance.

"Be alert, don't let any humans pass through here!"

One of the evil creatures seemed to be the leader shouted.

The devils became alert and continued to look around.

At this time, the green dragon came in front of them.

The green dragon even purposely slowed down his pace and slowly walked past the devils.

Everyone held their breaths. The devils did not notice anything.

"Haha, the casting of this high-level Hex took a lot of my energy, Andrea." the green dragon said to show off.

Andrea yawned loudly and forced herself to stay awake. She did not respond.

The green dragon's vertical pupils opened even wider.

"Andrea ... what are you doing?" it asked softly.

Andrea suddenly opened her eyes wide and shouted: "Idiot, what are you trying to do? Run! "

"Haha, okay okay okay, I thought you were going to ignore me." the green dragon smiled apologetically.

It sped up again and ran down the mountain along the mountain path.

Andrea leaned on Liu Ping again.

Liu Ping thought for a while, patted the green dragon's back and said: "I don't want you to come here for nothing — — I guess knowledge is also a kind of wealth, and a high-level one at that."

"Of course, knowledge is a waste in the beginning. When it reaches a certain level, it will become another kind of priceless treasure." the green dragon continued.

"Although I don't have much money now, I know a lot about the various knowledge and secrets of the human race." Liu Ping said.

The green dragon was finally interested and asked: "What did you do when you were alive?"

"I was a problem solver."

"Problem solver, there's such a profession?"

"Yes, I specialize in solving all kinds of knowledge problems. If you have any questions related to human civilization, I can solve them for you as your reward."

"Reward!"

The green dragon suddenly became excited and said loudly: "You can joke with me about other things, or even play with my feelings, but you can't lie to me about rewards, understand? Otherwise, even Andrea can't save you! "

"I'm a very professional problem solver." Liu Ping said with a smile.

The green dragon thought for a while and said: "Alright, your spirit and body are very calm, looks like it's not a lie — — besides, to be able to get Andrea's recognition, you must have some skills. Let me think, what kind of problem can I use to get the reward I deserve?"

The green dragon's gaze no longer wandered around Andrea's body, but fell into deep thought.

It ran quickly on the rugged mountain path.

After a while.

The green dragon said: "This is a very difficult problem, and it happens to be related to you humans. Its reward is completely worthy of my noble status."

"Go ahead." Liu Ping said.

"Just the problem alone represents infinite value, let's talk in private." the green dragon said.

It sent a telepathic message to Liu Ping:

"Legend has it that the Gods of Purgatory cut off the flow of the world during the Eternal Night, secretly creating dark plays to select living beings with potential to become slaves — —"

He stopped halfway through his words.

Obviously, it still wanted to test Liu Ping.

"I know about this, what do you want to ask?" Liu Ping asked.

"Some slaves will wake up from the dark plays, but they all have powerful Karma on them, so they can't be killed easily. Otherwise, it would cause all kinds of problems. So the Gods threw these people to a certain place and kept silent about it. That's why I haven't been able to find the entrance to that place. I need to know the name of that place — — what's that place called?" the green dragon asked.

Liu Ping was a bit hesitant.

— — -should I tell it?

If I tell it, once it finds the past, will it cause a change in the future?

While he was thinking, he felt something moving in his chest.

Liu Ping looked down.

A card popped out from his bosom. A line of words silently appeared on the surface of the card:

"Tell it"

The Rock of Nothingness!

It's this card!

— — -It represents the great entity hidden deep inside the prison, made entirely of stars.

If that's the case ...

"Listen carefully, that place is called 'The Temporary Prison of the Useless'" Liu Ping casually said.

The green dragon laughed and said: "Good! Good! Good! This is a secret that only the Gods know, today I finally know its name."

Its body trembled a bit and flew up from the mountain path.

"Why are you flying?" Hua Qingkong asked.

"Don't worry, no evil creature can discover me. I need to send you to the city right away, I can't wait to do something else." the green dragon said.

It flew towards the majestic city in a steady and swift manner.
