Chapter 147: The Preparations Before the Hunt

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the bloody fog, there lied Mountoad, Island Dragon and an ugly wasp that was flying up and down in the air at a speed of about 40 kilometers per hour as it flapped its two light and transparent wings. The three of them began to feed.

That wasp was none other than the wizard gu Kyuuko that had the omniscient power Air Blast refined from the queen bee that Zhang Lisheng caught from the hive he bought unintentionally with 30 dollars as a snack.

Kyuu, or nine, was not only a number in the eyes of ancient Chinese, but it could also be seen as the largest number.

The reason Zhang Lisheng named his fourth wizard gu Kyuuko was because after the queen bee was refined, its ability was to lay wasp eggs in a host’s body that hollowed out the host’s flesh and blood in a blink of an eye before hatching and transforming into worm soldiers.

The wasp eggs could hatch at any time in the host’s body as directed by the young man’s thoughts. The number and combat ability of the worm soldiers, on the other hand, were closely related to the body size, intelligence, physical strength and other qualities of the host.

On top of that, as long as one of the worm soldiers transformed from the previous host’s body was still alive, the wizard gu would not be able to lay eggs in another host.

Commanding Kyuuko to deal with the enemy directly was less effective than Mountoad and Island Dragon but on some special circumstances, a miraculous effect would happen when its horrifying and peculiar ability was shown.

For example, take Casdia who was so powerful that it could fight against the enlarged Island Dragon. He could barely last more than ten seconds in the first wave of attacks from the worm soldiers before dying in the hands of Zhang Lisheng.

When the young man unscrupulously commanded the three wizard gus to kill the warrior from the supernatural realm successfully, the few people who had also returned to the parking lot from their campings chaotically hid.

By the time the crowds hiding behind the cars realized that that monster had eaten the superhuman-like burly man into nothingness before wrecking the carpark into a mess and disappearing very soon, they hastily crept into their own cars and stepped on the accelerator pedal to its limit, fleeing quickly into the city.

In just two to three minutes, the parking lot became completely vacant. At this time, Zhang Lisheng finally crept out from behind a pickup truck slowly before jumping onto the invisible Island Dragon — without giving a damn to the valuable items left behind by Casdia — before returning back to Honolulu safely through the sparse wood along the highway.

It was only until he saw the city buildings not far away did he climb down from the Island Dragon’s back and ran from the forest to the seaside resort that could be seen everywhere in Hawaii. It was only then that he could finally relax.

At this moment, the sun was already high up in the sky. The sun was shining but in truth, it was not even 10 am yet. Not many people were on the beach and there were even locals who were exercising along the coastline.

It was fortunate that Hawaii’s service industry was well-developed. The open-air restaurant beach had already started their business hours. Carrying his backpack, Zhang Lisheng dragged his heavy feet to sit directly under the umbrella of the restaurant. A waiter immediately came up and handed him the menu as he asked, “What would you like to have, sir?”

“I need a clean set of clothing and a hot bath. However, before that, give me a smoked fish sandwich, a beef burger and a glass of Coke,” Zhang Lisheng said as he took out a credit card from his backpack. “Swipe an extra ten dollars for your tips too, thank you.”

Naturally, the open-air restaurant certainly did not provide clean clothes. However, the stall selling swimwear and shorts were not far away from the restaurant. For the sake of that ten dollar tip, the young waiter was quite willing to run the errand for the guest.

“Clean clothes will arrive soon.” The waiter was already used to seeing such guests who spent a wild night somewhere and drag themselves randomly into any open-air restaurant groggily the next morning to fill their stomachs before going back for a good rest. With a smile, he continued, “There’s a warm shower in the wooden house on the beach, which is equally comfortable too. After you’ve eaten your breakfast, you can have a shower before changing into your clothes. Then, you can rent a beach chair with a sun umbrella and sleep there while listening to the waves. You’ll be energized again in the evening.”

“What a good idea, buddy.” Alice was still in the hands of the people from the supernatural realm so just to be safe, it was not possible for Zhang Lisheng to return to the Royal Hawaiian Hotel. The waiter’s suggestion suited his thoughts quite well. “Just like what you suggested, prepare all of them for me. You can receive a tip of 20 dollars by doing so.”

“My pleasure.” The waiter took the credit card from the young man and turned around to leave politely.

Not long after, a pair of board shorts and sweatshirt that were of good quality were sent to Zhang Lisheng together with his burger, sandwich, and coke.

The young man hurriedly ate his first formal breakfast ever since he got off the plane before taking a cold shower and putting on a clean set of clothes. Then, he lied down on the comfortable beach chair under a large sun umbrella as he listened to the “sha sha...” sound of the waves before falling into a deep sleep tiredly.

Nobody knew how long but the commotion and bustling sound of the joy of the crowds gradually woke Zhang Lisheng up.

He opened his eyes and found the empty beach around him to be fully crowded with men and women wearing sexy swimsuits along with tourists frolicking with their family members with overflowing joy.

Patting his face and sensing that his energy was already fully restored, Zhang Lisheng stood up from the beach chair to move his body before muttering to himself, “Sage Altman, it’s my turn to pay you a little visit now.”

Then, treading on his slippers, he walked out of the beach.

He rented a car from the roadside and went to register a phone number before buying a new phone and sent a text to both Lili and Tina just in case they were worried about him. After the young man searched up the best pet shop in Hawaii on the internet, he rushed over there.

Walrus Bay Pet Shop was located at the most prosperous center of Honolulu, next to the prestigious Hawaiian Kingdom Museum which housed more than 1000 pieces of Hawaiian indigenous historical relics, including 17 royal stone scepters.

Many tourists who visited this museum would usually walk into this three-story pet shop that had an area of ??more than 200 square meters in passing.

Before they went in, generally, they would not understand why this shop that had a rent of at least a million dollars annually would sell pets rather than watches and jewelry but after they finished strolling around the pet shop, they would no longer have this question in their minds anymore.

When Zhang Lisheng entered the Walrus Bay Pet Shop, many tourists were pointing at and admiring the strange animals living in the special feeding vessel.

Despite knowing that these tourists were merely visiting and would not spend at least 1000 dollars on buying pets, the staff of the Walrus Bay Pet Shop would still answer the tourists’ questions one by one eagerly to their best ability.

“Why does this turtle look like a crane’s head?”

“This is a Bird-headed Turtle. It’s a species of sea turtle native to Avon Kirt Island...”

“Miss, this parrot is so big already but why doesn’t it learn to speak?”

“Sir, this large parrot is from Zimbabwe’s inland forests in Africa. The number is very scarce and although it doesn’t imitate humans in talking, it has a strong sense of rhythm instead. If you clap your hands in successions, it would dance accordingly to the sound...”

In the midst of the bustling noise, a middle-aged man with an Asian face stood in front of the aquarium while staring at a large black-and-white fish that was swimming vivaciously to and fro. After he spoke to the young translator beside him, the young translator immediately went up to the closest storekeeper beside him and asked loudly, “Excuse me, what fish is this?”

“Sir, this is a freshwater tank. The fishes inside are all pure Koi.”

“It really is a carp. Looks like the Americans know Koi too...” After the young man obtained the answer from the storekeeper, he immediately translated for the middle-aged man. An astonished look crept upon the middle-aged man’s face, prompting him to point at the two large black-and-white fishes inside the aquarium, “Ask him how much is this mountain-water fish?”

Without waiting for the young man to translate, the storekeeper already went to greet the middle-aged Asian man and replied in Chinese while flashing eight of his teeth, “Sir, this fish has a pure undertone and it’s priced at 68,000 dollars, representing smooth sailing and auspiciousness.”

The Koi was an omnivorous freshwater fish. Essentially, it was merely a good-looking carp so when the young man heard of this price, he could not help but give a little yelp.

“Oh! Americans know about smooth sailing and auspiciousness too?! The fish is not that expensive. The color of the Koi Wang bought from Kaohsiung Taiwan is just slightly more beautiful than this but it costs more than 4 million NT dollars...” The middle-aged man muttered to himself as he glanced at the young man beside him with a nothing-to-be-surprised-at gaze before asking the shopkeeper, “Do you do delivery if I buy this fish?”

“As long as your delivery address is on Earth, we’ll deliver this fish to your home at your requested time for free.”

“Then, send it to Shenzhen, China five days later...”

“Yes, sir!” Great tides washed over the sand. The storekeeper’s patient explanations were eventually paid off as he finally bagged a huge fish. With an outstretched hand, he took the credit card the middle-aged man passed to him and quickly wrapped this sale up.

After bidding goodbye to the buyer who began to excitedly call his friends to show off his new gain, the storekeeper who was equally happy for receiving a commission of 1000 dollars saw a skinny Asian young man who seemed to have just returned from his swimming by the sea walking up to him. “Hello, do you have pet dogs here?”

“Of course, they are on the third floor waiting for you to make your choice.”

“OK! Let us go and see. Remember, don’t bring me to see those delicate puppies! I want to look at large-sized dogs, the fiercer the better.”

Most of the male tycoons had a somewhat competitive and aggressive personality. For this reason, large-size dogs that were ferocious and cruel to strangers but docile and amiable to their owners were very popular with them. As a pet shop that targeted the upper market, the Whale Bay would naturally not lack this kind of dog.

“Do you have any large dog type that you like? For example, Neapolitan or Fila?” Usually, those customers who could name the pet dog type of their preferences directly were usually serious buyers. The storekeeper was stunned for a moment before quietly eyeing Zhang Lisheng. As he asked, he accompanied Zhang Lisheng upstairs.

“I don’t know anything about dog type. I just want the biggest and strongest dog that is available in your shop now,” Zhang Lisheng answered straightforwardly.

“Well, it just so happens that we have a Mastiff. It’s nearly one meter tall and weighs more than 100 kilograms. It’s taller and heavier than other average Mastiffs of the same kind by 20%. However, its body is very well-proportioned as both its parents are famous fighting dogs. It has just turned two years old and this is its first sale priced at 30,000 dollars.” As if seeing through the young man’s character, the storekeeper was very straightforward as he concisely briefed.
