"Wait! I understand! It must be Xia Mi, that guy is taking revenge on me!"

After the last news of embezzlement of the Night Watchmen's wallet to pay off debts came to light, Fingel needed to get money immediately to make up for the hole, so he needed a certain amount of topic and popularity of the post.

It happened that at this time, my little brother captured a photo of Su Mo and Eriki going out alone.

In the past, Fingel would never have dared to offend Xia Mi so openly or shine a green light on Xia Mi's head.

But this time, Fingel, who was forced to the edge of the cliff, ignored Xia Mi's repayment and directly acted as the driving force behind the scenes to spread the rumor that Xia Mi was devastated and dumped.

If one had to offend someone to suffer such revenge, Xia Mi was undoubtedly the most suspect. It didn’t take much evidence to confirm that it was her!

With his S-level personality, there is a high probability that he will not care about him, but Xia Mi is different. This mediocre girl is very petty.

Although it was Su Mo who snitched, it was definitely Xia Mi who blew the whistle!

"This is not considered revenge. After all, your mathematical skills are indeed admirable. The plan you proposed before has also verified many possibilities. It's just that we haven't found the Dragon King yet."

Caesar said sincerely.

Although Fingel seemed like a loser, after spending most of the day together, Caesar had actually seen that this guy was actually quite reliable in his professional field, otherwise he wouldn't have asked for his opinion.

"Instead of thinking about why Xia Mi recommended you, it is better to continue thinking about the search plan for Dragon King Norton. We are very pressed for time."

"Plan? There's nothing to say."

At Caesar's urging, Fingel shrugged.

"Look for it slowly. If the Gattuso family can mobilize an entire fleet that is exactly the same as the current one, or get a formation of submarines to search, you can easily shorten the search time to less than two days. Anyway, you guys

The Gattuso family is very wealthy, so even if they go bankrupt, it shouldn't be difficult to build a fleet, right?"

Caesar was dumbfounded when he heard Fingel's request.

"It shouldn't be difficult, right? This is simply impossible! This is not the high seas, but the Yangtze River Reservoir. If we really dare to do this, the troops stationed nearby will turn us into fireworks on the spot!"

Within this range, let alone a cruiser, even an aircraft carrier is not powerful enough for missile bombing.

"Not to mention, the current Gattuso family cannot build such a fleet! The Vidal you see is the last property left by my cheap dad. It is the last one."

Caesar reluctantly spread his hands and broke Fingel's fantasy.

The Gattuso family is really in decline, not just pretending.

This Vidal was an asset of Pompeii. It was originally kept in the Yangtze River for fishing and fun. It was never used once after it was bought. Instead, many weapon adaptation systems were made to satisfy his desire for modification.

Although these systems can be used in the Norton plan, in fact, the ship does not strictly belong to the Gattuso family, but has been put up for auction as an asset mortgage.

The reason why they can still use it is because the boat has not been sold yet, and they only have the right to maintain it and the obligation to keep it temporarily.

"Then there's no other way. We can't conduct a wide-area search with just one ship, otherwise we'll just stare at the Bronze City!"

Fingel spread his hands and said.

If they couldn't actively search for the Dragon King, all they could do was wait and see.

"Okay, that's all."

Caesar nodded, then patted Fingel on the shoulder.

"If no clues are found tomorrow, we will go directly into the water to find out the news inside Bronze City. You have a good rest today!"

With that said, he was ready to leave.

But before he took two steps, he was stopped by Fingel.

"Wait, wait! What did you say? Did you just say 'we'? Did you say 'we' went to Bronze City to investigate the news together?"

He asked with disbelief on his face, his eyes widening like a cow.

"Yes! I see that you have good diving scores and excellent bloodline. You are more suitable to be my partner than others!"

Caesar nodded naturally.

Both he and Fingel had learned practical lessons and were able to cooperate with each other without additional training.

"Mom, I'm not going!"

Fingel was not affected by Caesar's high hat at all and immediately expressed his resistance.

"Shouldn't things like slaying dragons be left to you A-level and B-level masters? How can I, an E-level, join in the fun? Isn't it better to let a waste like me fend for myself?"

"But your bloodline is A-level, isn't it?"

Caesar asked rhetorically.

Fingel's student rights have only been reduced, not that his bloodline has deteriorated. Even though he is E-level, in fact there are not many people in the entire school with better bloodlines than him.

"But I'm a loser!"

Fingel still refused to obey with a sad face.

"If I had known, I would have gone to Su Mo's side. I heard that the S-class guys have been playing all day today. It would be great if I hang out with them, but here I have to face the danger of my life!"

Seeing Fingel calling himself a waste without any grudge, Caesar was at a rare loss.

The most harsh words he scolded were just because he thought the other person was a loser, but Fingel actually admitted this to himself, making him unable to even use provoking techniques.

Seeing Fingel's appearance, Caesar believed that if he asked anything - "Do you want to be a coward for a lifetime or a hero for five minutes?" - Fingel would definitely choose to be a coward without even thinking about it.

Fingal's lower limit is so low that it's like chewing gum stuck to the bottom of the foot, which can't be picked out at all.

After a few seconds of silence, Caesar asked doubtfully.

"If you don't want to carry out the mission, then why did you actively apply to join the Norton Project in the first place?"

"Because I have offended someone! I originally wanted to avoid it, but who knew that this secret plan is related to dragon slaying!"

Fingel said with a sad and angry look.

Because of the confidentiality agreement, when he knew that he was participating in the dragon-slaying plan, he could no longer withdraw.

There is no doubt that the person he offended was Xia Mi, but he didn't expect that he could not escape the other party's revenge in the end.

"..."

Caesar was speechless.

Fortunately, he had thought that although Fingel looked carefree on the outside, he was actually just like him, with a strong fighting spirit to slay dragons. Who would have thought that the reason why he joined the Norton Project was just to avoid trouble?

He didn't know how to evaluate it, so he could only change the topic.

"You just said that the S-class guys have been playing all day today. Didn't they perform their mission?"

Caesar was very curious about this.

Whether he wanted it or not, Groups A and B were in a competitive relationship when it came to slaying the dragon. He originally thought that Su Mo would launch an investigation as quickly as he did, but he didn't expect that they had been having fun the whole time?

Is this because he is confident or has another plan? He can't give up looking for the Dragon King, right?

Hearing Caesar's question, Fingel nodded with envy and jealousy.

"Yes! I heard that they are still fishing during the day, grilling fish directly on the deck, and accompanied by beautiful girls. How can we be so miserable?"

"...haven't you been lying here all day?"

Caesar asked speechlessly.

You've done almost nothing this day, so what's wrong with you?

"I'm so tired!"

Fingel said confidently.

After saying that, he muttered again.

"However, it is understandable that there is no movement from Su Mo. The equipment on the Monyach is not as complete as our Vidal. They do not have infrared detectors, and the equipment is not accurate enough. If the Dragon King does not take the initiative to reveal its traces, they will not be able to find it.

.”

Upon hearing this, Caesar cast his gaze towards the empty river, which was the direction of the Monyach.

"What are you thinking about? Thinking about how to defeat Su Mo and become the new dragon-slaying hero? Or are you afraid of being intercepted by them in the end?"

Fingel asked curiously.

"No!"

Caesar shook his head.

"I was just thinking, we are in the dragon-slaying team, and my equipment is much better than Su Mo's. Is this unfair to Su Mo and the others?"

Since it is a competition, what he wants is naturally a victory under fair conditions.

"...I think you are thinking a little too much."

Fingel said politely.

"I don't mean to give up my advantage, I just think this kind of treatment is a bit cheating."

Caesar shook his head.

This asymmetric advantage made him feel that even if he won, there would be no glory to speak of.

What Caesar didn't know was that at this time, Su Mo, who they thought was standing still, had actually taken a small step in the Norton plan.
Chapter completed!
