Chapter 349: Lu Zhe

Professor Lu, being a renowned veteran professor at the university, has also participated in many national projects, and his own abilities are not lacking, so in certain respects he still wields considerable influence.

In this situation, many people came to him—various relatives or the like—seeking to leverage his influence for help.

Over time, Professor Lu grew more annoyed by this, and just these past two days he even refused a distant relative he barely knew.

So when Su Sheng arrived, Professor Lu subconsciously misunderstood.

He thought that if it was truly a request for help, and only a minor issue that didn't violate his principles, then, seeing that the requester was looking after his son Xiao Zhe, he would just help out.

But after that, they would have no further contact, and he would also prevent Xiao Zhe from contacting that Captain Xiao Su again.

Unexpectedly, it turned out he had overthought it.

"Hmm, Ah Zhe's luck is good, perhaps it's empathy, having obtained a Hidden Class from a blind old man."

"Relatively speaking, Hidden Classes are rather powerful, so I'd like to recruit Ah Zhe into our guild," Su Sheng explained with a smile.

"Yanhuang …"

Professor Lu, after all, is still a professor; he naturally has a discerning eye.

However, his previously focused research fields had nothing to do with games, so he hadn't really dealt with the Deer Hunt segment.

But because of Lu Zhe, he's recently been pondering the Deer Hunt game.

With Professor Lu's perspective, he can naturally see the game's prospects, and given his research stature, he's heard a bit about some hidden aspects.

Lu Zhe is congenitally blind; daily life is already problematic. Though his wife can care for him, he's not young, and his wife will age too.

Finding a foothold for Xiao Zhe is a difficult matter.

And the document Su Sheng handed over gave Professor Lu a glimmer of hope.

Although he can't guarantee Deer Hunt's longevity—no one knows the future—anyway, in the short term the gaming world… the global gaming scene… will be dominated by Deer Hunt.

Furthermore, Su Sheng stipulated in the contract that if Deer Hunt ends and the Yanhuang Club disbands, the Yanhuang side will still grant Lu Zhe a generous monetary reward.

One could say there's absolutely no downside.

"I agree to this, but I still need to discuss it with Xiao Zhe," Professor Lu said, looking at Su Sheng.

Although he could decide outright, Xiao Zhe is now an adult.

"Hmm." Su Sheng nodded.

Professor Lu's agreement essentially sealed the matter; Lu Zhe is highly unlikely to refuse.

"Captain Xiao Su, wait a moment," Professor Lu said, then stood up and left; shortly after, he came back dragging Lu Zhe.

After roughly explaining the relevant situation to Lu Zhe,

Lu Zhe was also excited: "If I can help Brother Su in the game, I'd naturally be very happy."

"But… could this reward be too generous?" Lu Zhe said hesitantly.

Although he is congenitally blind, his mind isn't blind, and the Lu family's upbringing is upright.

Thus Lu Zhe is not a lazy, clueless waste; he clearly understands the value of that sum.

"No, Hidden Classes in Deer Hunt are already quite rare, and your Hidden Class, Ah Zhe, should be powerful, but you need to develop it," Su Sheng said with a smile.

"Alright, I will." Lu Zhe nodded.

"But change the last point: if Deer Hunt ends and Yanhuang disbands, I don't want the final compensation."

"At my spending level, with my daily allowance, I can already save a lot."

"And if Brother Su truly reaches that point, you might need the initial capital more than I do."

Lu Zhe spoke very clearly; it's hard to imagine he's just a newly adult blind youth.

Professor Lu watched the scene, feeling both gratified and pained…

In the end, due to Lu Zhe's insistence, that clause was removed from the agreement.

Everything settled, Su Sheng left Professor Lu's house.

Because of Lu Zhe's special situation, Su Sheng also said Lu Zhe need not go to the club; of course, if he chose to, the Yanhuang Club members would take good care of him.

Naturally, Professor Lu and Su Yuan were uneasy, so they didn't let Lu Zhe go.

Politely declining the Lu family's invitation to dine, Su Sheng returned to the Security Booth.

He met Zheng Dazhuang's scorching gaze; if he didn't know the reason, Su Sheng would certainly think Zheng Dazhuang was a mountain of a man.

"Boss!"

Zheng Dazhuang called out almost fanatically.

Su Sheng scratched his ear: "Heard you, I'm not deaf, off to work…"

"Don't worry, I said I wouldn't backtrack." Su Sheng said helplessly.

"Alright~"

The other security team members nearby looked at Su Sheng with suspicion, while Zheng Dazhuang wore an excited expression.

"Captain, you can't play favorites. What PY deal did you make with Da Zhuang? We want in too."

"Do you want a fixed night shift plus long‑term overtime?" Su Sheng asked lightly.

Boom—

Thus the group dispersed in a clamor.

They still have to play Deer Hunt tonight; night shift? Not even a dog would go…

…

Back to the game.

Su Sheng first opened the pet info, glanced at it, and upon seeing Xiao Jia Huo's Fireworks Prayer Power had increased, he smiled.

The offline status also increased, which is obviously ideal.

Then Su Sheng directly contacted the Dream Building side.

How's it? Have you finished the BOSS?

It was exciting; we finished it in the last two minutes of game time, hehe…

Zhu Meng Junjie responded.

Alright, then let's sort out heading over to the Teleport Array to do the mission?

"Alright." Zhu Meng Junjie responded.

After that, Su Sheng also crumpled the Return City Scroll.

Yesterday we leveled up here, and also used up some potion supplies.

It's time to replenish some.

After meeting the Dream Building people in the city, the six of them set out together.

But we still have to look after the Dream Building Squad's team, and Su Sheng controlled the pace.

"I feel, maybe you should get a mount."

"You guys run missions outdoors all year, so ink stains aren't an issue either."

Su Sheng said with a smile.

With Zhu Meng Junjie's Innate Mission Holy Body, who knows how many missions the Dream Building Squad has completed.

The Dream Building Squad can stand out among the many players, not only because its members possess excellent consciousness talent.

It also ties to Zhu Meng Junjie's Innate Mission Holy Body attribute; from these mission rewards, the Dream Building Squad members have gained a considerable advantage.

"Too expensive."

Zhu Meng Junjie shook his head.

Although we've gained a lot during this period, spending such a high price for a mount is still painful.

"Yeah, let's wait a bit, until the officials open Gold Coin and Gold Coin exchange, then get a mount."

Zhu Meng Xiao E also said.

"Fine." To that, Su Sheng didn't force it.

Everyone has their own understanding and experience of the game.

After a little over an hour, the group finally approached the location of the Teleport Array.

Only…

At this moment, there were actually people here…
