Chapter 727: Chapter 398: The Invisible Tiger

Perhaps the video was really too scary, as Old Zhao was suspicious and fearful all day.

He even walked in crowded places when school was over.

Since Yun Ting had to go back to the branch for a meeting, she was picked up early by Chen Yu in his car.

With nothing else to do, Li Changhe accompanied Old Zhao on his way home. If there was really something, maybe they could use it to feed Old Lead.

Seeing Old Zhao looking back in panic for the third time, Li Changhe sighed and said, "Don’t worry. Although Yanyun is not a big city, there are still many people at this time of day. There’s no way a tiger would be walking down the street."

’Even if there was a tiger, it wouldn’t be able to hurt you.’ Of course, he didn’t say that. However, with Li Changhe’s current strength, acting as a tiger-fighting hero wouldn’t be impossible.

Old Zhao scratched his head and said, "I really need to see a psychologist. I’m not that afraid of tigers. No matter how fierce they are, they can’t bite me. But after seeing them bite people, I just feel something is wrong. I get scared from time to time."

Could there be something wrong with the video?

Li Changhe frowned, wondering if the effect of the video was to make people who saw it feel a chill down their spine from time to time?

But Li Changhe had also watched the video, and so far, he had no reaction. This possibility was probably ruled out.

"It may be related to the strength of one’s abilities. After all, Old Zhao is an ordinary person." Yun Ting spoke in Li Changhe’s mind, "Perhaps the effect of the video is to make those affected unconsciously aware of a dangerous atmosphere. The same danger might be directly ignored by you."

Li Changhe agreed.

It would take a bunch of tigers to even startle Li Changhe.

After all, with Li Changhe’s Physique, even Dog Brother would have a hard time taking a bite. Ordinary tigers probably couldn’t even breach his defense.

Nevertheless, Li Changhe decided to play it safe and activated his Hawk Eye Magic Eye to observe the surroundings. Yun Ting also released her Mental Perception to explore the movement around them.

The street was normal, with no strange phenomena.

Li Changhe shook his head, thinking he was overthinking it.

He decided to walk home, but stopped at an alley entrance.

He had been using the Hawk Eye Magic Eye all along, which had the ability to observe traces.

It also allowed him to see an eerie footprint that shouldn’t have been there.

The unique footprints of a feline animal, resembling plum blossom petals. The imprint was faint and would probably be undetectable without the Hawk Eye Magic Eye.

Judging by the size, the owner of the trail must have been about two meters long. A two-meter-long big cat?

"Is there really a tiger?" Li Changhe thought and moved into the alley.

He planned to look for the tiger that eluded both Brother Ting and Hawk Eye Magic Eye.

Unfortunately, Li Changhe carefully explored the alley but couldn’t find the second footprint.

The so-called ’tiger’ seemed to have appeared and disappeared in the alley, leaving only one footprint.

Li Changhe thought it over and called Old Zhao. After casually making up a conversation topic, he asked him to send the video’s link to himself.

He then contacted Luo Kai in [Friends].

"A tiger?" Luo Kai repeated.

"That’s right. Although I can’t observe it and my Energy Perception can’t detect it, my Magic Eye has found footprints of a large feline animal." Li Changhe explained, "You’d better investigate that video."

Li Changhe then sent the video’s link to Luo Kai.

It made sense for ordinary players and officials to communicate this way, notifying the authorities promptly when they discovered certain issues.

"You did a good job." Luo Kai replied, "That person is Zhao Qianhui, right? I’ll have my colleagues from the third team keep an eye on his surroundings. We’re already investigating the video, and the results will be out soon. I heard you met Chiyou?"

Every official player had to write a detailed report after completing a task.

The authorities were bound to know about Li Changhe’s encounter with Chiyou.

"I suppose you could say that." Li Changhe thought that a part of Chiyou already had a new consciousness, which could be considered Chiyou, right? Anyway, Li Changhe just called it Old Ancestor.

"Are there any other records in the official documents?"

"There are, of course, plenty of other encounters with divine creatures, but as for Chiyou, just your case is exceptional." Luo Kai replied, "Be careful when you enter a mythological task in the future. Because you are an Extraordinary Soldier and a descendant of Yan Huang, Chiyou didn’t harbor malicious intentions towards you. The same can’t be said for players from other countries. Also, not all divine creatures necessarily harbor goodwill towards humans. For example, one of our team leaders encountered hostility after entering a mythological task. The reason was that the players interfered with their game. That team leader went through a lot of trouble to escape from their hands."

"What kind of Instance was it?" Li Changhe thought to himself, trying to avoid any pitfalls.

"The Gambles of the Gods." Luo Kai replied, "The divine creatures of that world were worshipped as Divinities, so they always enjoyed toying with humans. Bored out of their minds, they played a ruthless game. They chose several powerful humans and, using various methods, released plagues and created other Catastrophes. The players competed with each other, with the ultimate winner being crowned the champion."

"And our team leader, during that mission, lifted the curse of the stillborn babies and indirectly forced one of the chosen contestants to withdraw from the fight. Those divine creatures felt offended, causing more trouble for the team leader. Eventually, they sent an army to attack. Fortunately, they completed the mission; otherwise, they would have died there."

Li Changhe thought it made sense, as some divine creatures were hostile to humans. If they felt their game was being ruined, they naturally wouldn’t let humans off.

"And then, didn’t the official side fight back?" Li Changhe thought. Not to mention Chen Guang, there were many experts on the official side.

"We’re busy completing the challenge mission recently, and will deal with them later." Luo Kai said, "Anyway, be careful when entering mythological tasks in the future. Many cases show that divine creatures despise Evolution Game players. For now, don’t rush to find a new Task just yet. Tomorrow, the Evolution Game will update, so wait until after the update to see what new things it brings before making any plans."

"Got it, I’ll leave Old Zhao to you guys."

"Don’t worry, and by the way, I heard you used the Mirror of Reversal?"

"No, I didn’t. Don’t make things up." Li Changhe cursed inwardly, thinking that Chen Yu wasn’t loyal at all. He had clearly said he wouldn’t let it out.

After that, Li Changhe hurried home.

The Evolution Game was to be updated tomorrow.

Last time, Escape Coin, Symbiotic Body Contract, and the Guild system were updated. This time, he didn’t know what good stuff would be added.

On the other hand, at Yu Zhou Airport.

An uncle, carrying a bag, was on the phone saying, "Xiao Nan, guess where Dad is? I’m in...."

"We’ll talk later." The girl at the other end of the phone, who was having a meeting at Yanyun branch, hung up the call.

’Beep, Beep, Beep’

The middle-aged man was shocked, as it was the first time his daughter had hung up on him.

Immediately, he thought of someone.

"As I thought... Li Changhe, we are irreconcilable enemies!"
