Chapter 1: 1

Lu Qingqian sat in the carriage, looking at the empty streets with hardly any pedestrians through the window. Even when there were one or two people passing by occasionally, they would be in a hurry, as if anxious to go somewhere.

It was only dusk, and the sky had yet to darken completely, but every house that the carriage passed had its door closed without exception.

This is the capital and most prosperous city on the continent. Under normal circumstances, it should be filled with bright lights and people coming and going, even at night. However, such empty streets and closed doors of houses give a little bit of a bleak feeling.

Lu Jingqian has already had an understanding of this world and naturally knows the reasons that led to this scene. His clenched hands were on his thighs. Because this was his first time completing a mission in the real world, he couldn’t help but still be a little nervous.

He was originally just an ordinary college student, and one day, for some reason, he suddenly crossed over to the future world. He once more grew up in the future world and earned a lot of money by playing games and winning championships, then was hired by one of the largest game companies with a high salary to become the leader of the beta test group. Sometimes, he becomes a real-life NPC and fights against the players in the game. He was very good at any type of game. Basically, there were no games that he couldn’t handle.

He earned a lot of money, but before he had the time to spend it, one night, while he was sleeping, a thing calling itself the system suddenly appeared in his brain. Saying that he had caused a space and time disruption, and if he didn’t fix it, it would cause a lot of tragedies, and he must be punished.

Although he has played hundreds of different games in the future world, and the future world’s games were made very realistic, it was a way to make people immersed in the games. But games are just games. No matter how powerful he was in the game, no matter how confident he was in his ability to perform the task, he would inevitably feel a little nervous when he carried out the missions in the real world for the first time.

Moreover, before sending his soul over, the system repeatedly reminded him that this is the world that really exists in a different time and space in the universe, and all people and things are real. He could still be resurrected and start over once he died in a game. But in reality, once he dies on a mission or doesn’t complete the tasks, he can’t go to the next world and has to go through the punishment.

Although he didn’t know exactly what punishment the system was talking about, his intuition told him it must be something he didn’t want to experience. Although he was a little nervous to be doing tasks in the real world for the first time, the system also told him that he will not only go to one or two worlds, so he would get used to after passing through more worlds.

In the continent of this space and time, there are a total of thirty-eight big cities and hundreds of villages of varying sizes. Lu Jingqian was not in the most central and prosperous city of the continent, called Lesia City.

Why was the continent’s most prosperous city had each of every house’s doors closed once it was about to get dark, and the streets were empty with almost no one in sight?

All of these were because of the existence of werewolves on this continent. And once the night comes, there is a risk of being attacked by werewolves who have transformed into wolves. Even in the most heavily guarded Lesia City, it is likely to be attacked by the transformed werewolves if you walk around outside at night, not to mention other places. Therefore, once night comes, no matter where, every house would tightly close its door, and no one dared to go out.

Moreover, since hundreds of years ago, werewolves have been trying to blend in with humans in order to rule them, and many of them even conceal their identities and marry and have children with humans. A child born to a werewolf and a human has a fifty percent chance of becoming a werewolf. But even if the children born to werewolves and humans are human, their offspring still have the possibility of being werewolves.

So you don’t know if there was a werewolf around you. Maybe the person who has been your neighbor and friend for many years is a werewolf in human skin, and he may attack you at any time during the night.

This has happened too many times. Because once the night comes, their attack power will be much stronger at night than during the day, and ordinary people will be unable to defend themselves. So over the years, the biggest lesson humans learned about the struggle with werewolves was to stay home as much as possible at night. Although staying at home was not a hundred percent safe, it was still much safer than being outside.

And at the moment, Lu Jingqian was traveling by carriage to go somewhere to attend a birthday banquet before it got dark.

The carriage stopped in front of a luxurious mansion. Lu Jingqian handed the invitation out of the carriage window, and the mansion’s gate guards confirmed the invitation before opening the gate to let his carriage in.

If the original host had come to this mansion two years ago, he would not need to hand in an invitation, and the guards would consciously open the gate for him when they saw his carriage. But everything has changed since two years ago.

When Lu Jingqian got off the carriage and walked toward the banquet hall, many people who came to the banquet cast surprised glances at him.

The original host, who used to be the object of people’s fawning, has not appeared in front of the people for two years and now suddenly appears. So naturally, some people will feel surprised. As for those taunting and mocking gazes, Lu Jingqian can only say it was the so-called everybody who would seize the opportunity to attack when someone is down. In any world, there is no shortage of fence-sitter and those who would kick someone when he is down before, even if you have never offended them before.

When walking into the hall, Lu Jingqian drew the attention of more people. But none of them came over to greet him, which was the reason why the original host did not appear for two years.

No matter who it was, no one would feel good when facing those gazes. However, Lu Jingqian was different. He simply didn’t care how those people looked at him or what they thought. The purpose of his visit today was to confirm his opponent in this world with his own eyes. Because only by defeating his opponent and completing all the counterattacks will his mission in this world be considered successful. Otherwise, he cannot go to the next world.

Lu Jingqian looked around at the whispering people. Those who saw him looking over, hurriedly averted their eyes. He did not find the person he was looking for in the crowd of people. Lu Jingqian has a guess in his heart. It seems that person is ready to make a grand entrance in front of everyone.

Lu Jingqian found a random place to sit and wait. Ten minutes later, everyone in the hall was turned in the same direction. As expected by Lu Jingqian, the main character of today’s birthday party made a grand entrance under the watchful eyes of everyone.

The people sitting have gotten up and walked over. Only Lu Jingqian alone was still sitting. Because he didn’t have to rush over to greet him like everyone else. That person would definitely come over and greet him after seeing him.

Lu Jingqian looked at the clean-cut young man in a white formal suit, who was greeting the guests with a smile on his face and receiving their blessings. And by his side was a tall, handsome man in a white knight uniform standing at his side like a personal escort and looking at his face from time to time with eyes full of love.

Lu Jingqian calmly watched this scene and thought in his heart that if the original host were not replaced by him but saw this scene with his own eyes, he would certainly feel very bitter inside.

The white-clothed youth must have known of Lu Jingqian’s arrival before he came to the banquet hall. He soon saw Lu Jingqian through the crowd and walked toward him.

“Heron, I didn’t expect you to attend my birthday banquet.” Bonia said to Lu Jingqian with a gentle smile on his face, “I’m so happy that you came.”

Lu Jingqian stood up and said, “Since I received your invitation, of course, I have to come and send my blessing. After all, I have known you for many years, and we used to be best friends.”

“We are now still best friends, ah. Although I have been rather busy these past two years, as long as I’m free, we’ll see each other occasionally, right?” Bonia said with relief, “I’m really happy that you’re finally willing to get out and take a walk.”

Lu Jingqian commented in his heart that his acting skills were really good. Worthy of being the wolf king who gained almost everyone’s trust in just a short two years.

“We do see each other occasionally, but I might actually be happier if you weren’t talking about those drugs every time you came to see me.” Lu Jingqian said with slight sarcasm.

Bonia turned his head and looked at Chuck, who was standing beside him and then said to Lu Jingqian in a helpless tone. ”I know that you have been on guard of everyone since the death of your father. But please believe me that we never meant to hurt you.”

Chuck, who wore a white knight uniform, never said a word but only looked at Lu Jingqian with complicated emotion in his eyes.

Binua said to Chuck, “You go and take care of the guests. I want to talk to Heron alone.”

Chuck nodded and gave Lu Jingqian another glance before turning around to greet the guests.

“Let’s go to the balcony and talk?” Bonia said.

Lu Jingqian could probably guess what he wanted to talk about, but he still followed him to the balcony. Because he also happened to have something to say to him.

As the two stood on the balcony, Bonia turned his head to look at the ballroom in the hall and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear. ”What I have now is more than what you had before, and the one you like is now deeply in love with me. Just last night, we had gotten out of our ambiguous relationship because he officially confessed to me. His heart is now completely turned toward me, and he will never defend you again.”

Lu Jingqian pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, “I don’t care what your relationship is now. Let’s talk about business, for example, the batch of drugs you’ve been trying to get from me. With the number of times you’ve come to me recently, you should be in a desperate situation to get those medicines than before. And I seem to have remembered a little bit recently where my father may keep the drugs.”

The original host’s father was a witch doctor, and the number of people he saved was uncountable. It can be said that he was well-respected by the people. Ten years ago, the original host’s father encountered an attack from the wolf king and used medicine to kill him. And the other werewolves, because of their king’s death, had their control and attack ability significantly weakened. During that time, the security of human beings has been greatly improved.

But just two years ago, without anyone’s knowledge, the son of the wolf king came of age and became the new wolf king. And the first thing he did was to kill the original host’s father to avenge his father’s death.
