Pillar of Yita

That was all a daytime affair, Colin Ishurian had been asked if he was interested in joining the Silver Forest Spear, and he’d flatly refused. Fortunately, the other party didn’t insist and merely indicated they would keep his secret.

This somewhat surprised Fang Hong. He probed and asked how the other person had guessed who he was, only to be told:

”Actually, I don’t know who you are.”

Under Fang Hong’s stunned expression, Wu Di slowly sent another message:

”It’s just that you wear a mask to hide yourself, and your teammate said you had an old grudge with Silver Forest Spear, so I thought maybe you had some secrets—”

That left Fang Hong fuming: ”Then what the hell are you keeping secret!”

Wu Di read the message and couldn’t help but show a hint of a smile in his deadfish eyes, naturally replying, ”The people in this world who can keep a secret better than the dead are those who don’t know the secret at all.”

Fang Hong could only respond with a middle finger—which he specifically sent through a video transmission.

Meanwhile, Red Leaf’s message was more or less the same, except after his refusal, the other party vowed that he’d wait, as she would sooner or later make him join the Tabopolis Oak Knights.

Even so, compared to Wu Di, Fang Hong still found this big sister figure much cuter.

His contact list only included these two people, along with a Parker. Luo Yu, Tianlan, and the other trainees couldn’t use communicators, and Atira and Reed being natives, of course, couldn’t either—unless they became Dragon Riders.

He closed his contact list and entered the online community. Earlier, he had posted a somewhat strange missing person notice, saying he was looking for a lost Mr. Vovo, which was Sicape’s deceased squirrel pet, and he had specially paired it with some images that only members of Morning Dawn Star would understand.

The post was in the Commonwealth of Independent States region, and he believed that if Miss Sicape or Mr. Kroid saw it, they should understand.

However, the post hadn’t received many replies for the time being, and the few idle responses weren’t particularly insightful. Fang Hong glanced at them and then switched back to the China Region, where the post he’d previously made with Sicape’s ID was still a hot topic in this area. Looking at it, he was startled to find that most people were discussing himself.

Fortunately, no one had yet linked him with the incident at Traveler’s Rest, which only happened a day ago, and it had also become a hot event in the China Region—after all, it occurred in Colin Ishurian, with so many witnesses to the Giant Dragon.

When it comes to dragons, no matter is too small.

As Fang Hong scrolled down, suddenly a reply caught his eye:

Poster: Shana, Post Time: 9.28.18:01

’I know who you are—’

Upon seeing this reply, Fang Hong felt a surge of irritation—Not again? Without thinking, he clicked on the person’s reply and typed:

’Then, who am I?’

After sending the message, he subconsciously glanced at the forum time, only to realize it was still 3:00 AM in the China Region. He was taken aback, then chuckled dryly, recognizing he was being a bit too frivolous—Surely the other person must be asleep by now.

Shaking his head and feeling a bit thirsty, Fang Hong took down a water bag from the wall and took a sip.

And it was at that moment that the community notified him of a new message—after a ripple on the light screen, a message automatically popped up:

Responder: Shana, Response Time: 10.1.03:09

’Good evening, Mr. Ade—’

”Pfft—”

Fang Hong stared at the message, water spraying out of his mouth, and then nearly choked half to death, coughing violently.

This drew the attention of Miss Fairy, who turned around and looked at him somewhat curiously.
