Chapter 112: Not That Kind of Dragon

~6 min read 1,134 words

Yu Lin, what's this?

Van Helsing looked at Yu Lin, his eyes full of doubt.

He had just, as Dracula was about to turn completely to ash and scatter, stepped forward and directly gouged out Dracula's eyes, then threw them into the void.

The eyeball vanished instantly, leaving only a drop of bright red blood in his palm.

Yu Lin shrugged: 'Nothing.'

He wasn't trying to return to Wallachia? I just sent him back to have a look.

You know, I'm a kind-hearted person.

"........." Indeed.' Van Helsing chose to ignore his just‑now act of gouging out a human eyeball, and was about to say something to Feiluo, who was walking up.

Yu Lin, however, spoke again:

Van Helsing, Feiluo, it's been very pleasant being with you.

But all feasts must end, and I'm leaving.

'What?' Van Helsing and Feiluo both looked at Yu Lin, wanting to ask something, but saw him wave his hand at them.

Goodbye.

The next moment.

With a flash of white light,

Yu Lin vanished, leaving nothing behind, as if he had never appeared.

Even in the memories of Van Helsing, Feiluo, and the others, his face and name faded, leaving only the recollection that someone had come here and become friends with them.

Benson and the other disciples then understood something, dropped to their knees, and shouted:

See off the Apostle!

【Mission Completed】

【Reward: Trait — Enlightenment】

【In the dormitory.】

'Old Dragon, I'm handing it over to you.'

Yu Lin lay on the bed and handed the Soul of the Vampire King to Old Dragon.

This soul is not Dracula's; strictly speaking, it belongs to no one. Rather, whoever this soul is infused into becomes the new Vampire King.

'All right.' Old Dragon skillfully placed the soul into the cauldron, continuing to sear it over high heat and then simmer over low.

'This quality is high; it will take two months to fully refine.'

'Not bad, not bad.'

After Old Dragon nodded in satisfaction, he stuffed the cauldron into a corner, then went to the computer and powered it on!

Watching it clack away on the keyboard.

Yu Lin sat up: 'Old Dragon.'

'What's up?'

'Our next destination is to go to Yu the Great.'

'Eh, just that? Going to his place is fine—what's the big deal? You should still be steady like me........'

Old Dragon's words cut off abruptly, even his motion of typing in the account froze, as if caught in a time pause.

After a moment, it sprang up from the chair: 'What?!'

'You're serious?'

Yu Lin spread his hands: 'When have I ever lied to you?'

'Didn't you say you wanted to be steady?'

Seeing him look at himself with a smile, Old Dragon's face showed a bit of embarrassment: 'Well, special circumstances call for special treatment........'

'Let's not talk about that. When are we going, and what are we going to do?'

Yu Lin lay back down:

'In three months, we'll go help him with the water control.'

'In other words, you can really trick him into acknowledging you as his elder brother.'

'Eh, don't talk nonsense—I, Old Dragon, am not that kind of dragon.' Old Dragon waved his claws; if it weren't for the eager‑to‑try look written all over his face........

Yu Lin really had to believe it wasn't that kind of dragon.

'Three months, right? I've got it memorized.'

Old Dragon returned to the computer desk and began happily roaming the world of e‑sports.

Yu Lin, meanwhile, scrolled through short videos for a while, cleared his mind, and yawned.

Took a bath and went to sleep.

Refreshed status.

The next day.

The sunlight was just right.

Especially the air quality, which was simply incomparably better than that of London back then.

Yu Lin stood by the window watching Qin Zhao and his two companions running laps around the field below, feeling refreshed and completely at ease.

Now, having focused his cultivation, he has reached Chen Haoxi's level, far surpassing Qin Zhao and his two companions; unless they too can cheat like him, the gap will only keep widening.

Moreover, because his current status is special, the Civil Affairs Bureau's Tenth Unit's matters can only be put on hold for now.

I heard that in the recent second half of the year they recruited five new people, and the bureau plans to select the most outstanding among them to join them, forming two four‑person squads.

Yu Lin, huh......

Just let him roam; he alone can take on an entire team.

Just as Yu Lin lowered his gaze, intending to have breakfast, his pocket phone rang.

He picked it up and saw it was Uncle Chen.

As mentioned before, Yu Lin was an orphan; before he could work, he basically completed the nine‑year compulsory education thanks to state subsidies and the welfare home.

Uncle Chen is the director of the welfare home, originally named Chen Yu, who came from a wealthy family, but his father's venture failed when he was young... Fortunately, two properties were still left to him.

Because his wife Li Rongrong is infertile, and the two of them love children, they simply used a relatively spacious property to establish a welfare home.

When Yu Lin turned eighteen and left the welfare home to live on his own, Chen Yu gave him a few thousand yuan as seed money, so he wouldn't end up on the streets at first.

Now the call comes; it should be asking how his college life is going.

Yu Lin thought, pressed answer, and said with a smile:

"Uncle Chen, why are you calling me?"

But unexpectedly, it wasn't Chen Yu's voice but his wife Li Rongrong's, hoarse as if she had just cried: "Little Lin, your Uncle Chen... is now at the First People's Hospital, you should go see him."

"Hm? What happened?" Yu Lin sensed something was off, his brows slightly furrowed.

Li Rongrong gave no reason, only said she had to call other children who had gone out, and hung up.

It seemed she didn't want to say... or rather, she didn't want Yu Lin to get involved.

Yu Lin looked at the hung‑up screen, turned his head toward Dragon Lord and said:

"Dragon Lord, I'm going out for a few days."

"Alright, go ahead; call me anytime if you need anything."

Dragon Lord's hearing isn't poor; he heard their conversation clearly, waved his claw, and then Yu Lin was heard walking toward the door.

Then came the sound of a door closing.

Now they're within Xia Guo, and outside there's Grand Void protection over Yu Lin, so nothing will happen.
