The Serpent Demonfish saw the dragon next to Victor and let out a sneering roar.
At this moment, it thought the Ancient Dragon was just a trick Victor had made to scare it.
"Dragon, turn into a sword!" Victor stood with his hands behind his back and told the golden dragon.
The dragon nodded obediently, then flew into the air and circled a few times.
As it moved faster and faster, its body gradually disappeared, and in its place was a shining golden sword.
At the same time, in the 934 Underground City Federal Rescue Center, the staff couldn't believe what they saw on their computer.
"God, is the computer broken?" He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, not believing what he saw.
The screen showed a strong energy on Moon Lake.
And this energy was very similar to the energy waves that came from a dragon!
"Maybe it's a high-level Awakener who has made a pact with a dragon?" The staff guessed.
Thinking about that, he immediately called someone. A rough voice came through the phone: "Five minutes left, I'll be at Moon Lake soon."
"Kane, be careful!" The staff took a deep breath and explained: "The satellite just showed that a dragon might have appeared at Moon Lake. We think it's probably a high-level Awakener who passed by."
After a pause, he continued: "Hope you don't fight him. If necessary, you can leave the students stranded in the lake."
"Okay, I got it." Kane hung up and looked at the dragon's body in the sky. He shook his head.
As a Knight, protecting civilians was his rule.
No matter how strong the opponent was, he couldn't let them threaten civilians.
And now, the sword made from the dragon was in Victor's hand.
Feeling the powerful energy in his hand, Victor felt a new kind of confidence.
He looked at the Serpent Demonfish on the water, which was about to Dash at him. He sneered and rushed forward with his sword.
The Serpent Demonfish wasn't afraid either. It roared and jumped out of the water, charging at Victor.
In an instant, the shining sword hit the Serpent Demonfish on the head, making a loud noise.
After the noise stopped, the Serpent Demonfish sprayed out some dark green blood from its head and fell into the lake.
On the other side, Victor was also thrown back by the strong impact and landed back on the boat.
He wiped the blood from his mouth, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his body.
Although using Holy Light Dragonbane Slash didn't cost him anything, the strong impact still made him feel a bit tired.
But... at least the result was satisfying.
Because now, Victor heard a voice in his head.
[Killed lv18 Serpent Demonfish *1, gained 7000 experience points, one random skill book, one skill book of specified range.]
[Your level has reached lv5, gained 30 points of assignable attributes.]
"Wait!" Victor looked at the message on his panel, and his eyebrows immediately tightened.
According to the experience points calculation, a lv18 Serpent Demonfish shouldn't have given so little experience.
But soon, the panel showed a new line of text, explaining the reason for Victor.
Because the power from Holy Light Dragonbane Slash didn't belong to Victor himself.
So after killing the Serpent Demonfish, he could only get part of the experience.
"Never mind, it's still good that I jumped all the way to lv5," Victor said, looking at the huge body of the Serpent Demonfish floating on the lake, trying to comfort himself.
"Victor, was that you?" Audrey suddenly appeared behind Victor and pulled him into a hug.
Victor stiffened, and whispered, "I don't know what you're talking about."
Audrey smiled slightly, and said playfully, "Victor, you don't have to lie to me. Everyone else is unconscious. It's just you and me here!"
She paused, then continued, "Even though the golden light in the sky covered the person's shape, I can still tell it was you!"
Victor sighed softly, knowing he couldn't hide it from Audrey.
Her parents were both mid-level officials in the federal government. Audrey was smart and had seen a lot.
"Okay, but you can't tell anyone. It's a secret," Victor said, wrapping his arm around Audrey and whispering in her ear.
"I understand. It's our secret," Audrey smiled seductively and pressed her red lips against Victor's ear, whispering.
Victor was tempted by her, and for a moment, he felt his body heating up.
He took a deep breath, pushed Audrey onto the deck, and kissed her.
Meanwhile, Morse and the others were still unconscious, completely unaware of the scene happening next to them.
The two kissed for a while, and Audrey reached out with her slender hands, trying to help Victor take off his clothes.
But Victor suddenly stopped, and pulled away from her.
"Why did you stop, Victor?" Audrey, with her hair all messy, looked at him in confusion, her eyes full of helplessness.
Victor sighed, and looked toward the shore. "The federal people are here."
Audrey pouted, clearly upset that the federal officials were interrupting her and Victor's moment.
"Victor, come to my house next time, okay?" Audrey wrapped her arms around Victor from behind and whispered.
"Sure, when your parents aren't around," Victor said with a smile.
Audrey's parents were known for being picky and strict. Victor didn't want to get into any trouble with them.
At that moment, a rough voice from the shore called out, "Victor, are you guys okay?"
Victor walked to the edge of the boat, waved his hands and shouted, "Captain Kane, we're all fine!"
Kane saw Victor waving at him and let out a long breath of relief.
He then looked at the huge body of the Serpent Demonfish nearby and made a guess.
Most likely, it was that high-level Awakener who passed by and had a good heart. They had helped Victor and the others get out of trouble.
"Whoever that person is, I really want to thank them," Kane muttered to himself, then flew into Victor's boat in the air.
"Victor, did you see that person?" As soon as Kane got on the boat, he asked right away.
He had just checked, and there hadn't been any high-ranking federal officials in the underground city recently. That meant the high-level Awakener who passed by was probably a hermit.
If he could recruit that person into the federal government, it would be a big achievement for him.
"High-ranking person..." Victor was surprised for a moment, then realized that Kane was talking about himself.
But of course, he couldn't tell the truth. And even if he did, Kane would probably think he was lying.
"I'm sorry, Captain Kane, I didn't see who it was," Victor said without any hesitation.
"Then Audrey, what about you?" Kane wasn't giving up, and kept asking Audrey.
Audrey glanced at Victor with her eyes, then pretended to be innocent and shook her head at Kane: "I didn't see anything either."
"Okay," Kane sighed in disappointment and said to Victor: "Come on, I'll take you back to the square first."
With that, Kane waved his hand, and the boat started moving on its own, without any wind, heading toward the shore.
At that moment, Morse and the others were waking up one by one.
After what had just happened, none of them felt like exploring anymore. They all asked Kane to take them back.
"Victor, what about you?" Kane looked at Victor, who was quiet, and asked.
Victor shook his head and said, "I still want to take this chance and practice more in Darkwood Park."
Kane nodded and didn't say much more.
After all, the kind of thing Victor and the others had gone through was just a rare event.
Overall, Darkwood Park was still very safe.
Audrey also left with Kane. In fact, she had wanted to stay with Victor and explore.
But her parents called Kane directly on his phone and told her she had to go home right away.
"Bye, remember to come to my house," Before leaving, Audrey walked up to Victor and whispered.
"Okay," Victor nodded. He didn't say when he would come anyway.
After everyone left, Victor sighed in relief and started to look at his loot.
Two skill books—one was completely random, the other allowed him to choose a specific skill.
"What skill should I pick?" Victor felt stuck in his mind.
