After working in the hotel for a few days, Lucas did not see the younger generation from the cultivation world who was the hotel owner, but he did get a lot of tips. This hotel was very high-end, and many waiters or security guards helped guests with their suitcases. Lucas was very strong and protected the guests' suitcases very well, so he got a lot of tips.
Many passengers praised Lucas in their comment books before leaving, so when he had just started working at the hotel for half a month, he was singled out for a reward by the lobby manager during a staff meeting.
After the meeting, Lucas vaguely heard words like "little white face" and "sleeping with 1". When he turned around, these people were silent again. The security manager came over and patted him on the shoulder, smiling and said, "Xiao Fu, Xiao He's wife is giving birth, you can help him tonight."
Since it was a big deal related to the reproduction of the race, Lucas agreed without thinking.
The manager smiled even more happily. The newcomer was hardworking and obedient. As his superior, he was naturally very satisfied.
High-level hotels like Yuanyue have travelers checking in 24 hours a day. The hotel provides catering, leisure, entertainment and accommodation, so the employees who work here also work in three shifts to ensure that customers can enjoy the highest quality service anytime and anywhere.
After dusk, the sky became a little gloomy. Lucas looked at the sky and said to the cleaning lady who was in a hurry to go home: "The weather is a little bad, don't delay on the road, go home early."
"Well, that's good." The cleaning lady took out a box of wedding candy from her pocket. Someone was getting married in the hotel today, and the guests didn't want the remaining wedding candy, so she asked the employees to share it. "Xiao Fu, eat some wedding candy to get some good luck and find a girlfriend that suits your taste as soon as possible."
"Thank you." Lucas did not refuse and took the candy box and put it in his trouser pocket. He borrowed an umbrella from the front desk and handed it to the cleaning lady, "Take it with you on the road."
The cleaning lady didn't plan to take it, but seeing Lucas insisted, she felt it was not a good idea to waste the young man's kindness, so she took it.
The cleaning lady was halfway there when she saw a nearby supermarket offering discounts on fruits and vegetables, so she went in to buy some. As soon as she walked out of the supermarket, a sudden strong wind blew outside, and rain and hail fell in a flurry.
This place was only a few hundred meters away from her home. She opened the umbrella that Lucas lent her to shield herself from the scary hail and jogged towards home.
In her hurry to get home, she didn't notice that the huge hailstones turned into rain when they fell on her umbrella. Even with such a strong wind, it didn't blow over the umbrella, which didn't seem to be of very good quality.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the whole city was caught in a rainstorm. Yuanyue Hotel was located on a relatively high ground, so no rain had flowed in yet. However, there were strong winds, thunder, heavy rain and hail outside, and it was pitch black, which looked a bit scary.
Several girls at the front desk gathered together and called Lucas, who was standing at the door, to come over to hide from the rain. They all knew that Lucas had a low education and came from the countryside, but because Lucas was good-looking and polite, it did not affect their good impression of Lucas.
"Do you think there is a powerful being trying to overcome a disaster?" a girl at the front desk joked, "This weather is so weird."
"Maybe it's a walking dragon." Lucas opened his eyes wide and looked at the movement outside seriously.
"What is a walking dragon?" The girls at the front desk were all very young and very curious.
"If a Jiao wants to transform into a dragon, it will bring thunderstorms, and then it will look for a destined person on the roadside to ask for a title, and ask him whether there is a dragon or a snake in the water." Lucas saw that the girls seemed very interested in this, so he continued, "If the destined person says it is a snake, then he will fail to transform into a dragon. If the destined person says it is a dragon, then he can fly into the clouds and become a dragon."
"What about the destined person?" The girls at the front desk were more interested. "If Jiao successfully asks for a title and turns into a dragon, will he repay the favor?"
"A good dragon will repay the favor if it turns into a dragon. But if it is an evil dragon..." Lucas suddenly stopped.
"What will happen?" the girl at the front desk asked.
"It will eat the people it is predestined with, thus settling the cause and effect."
The revolving door was pushed open, and a man in black clothes and black pants, soaking wet, strode in. He glanced at Lucas and the others, and said, "It's raining heavily. I'll book a room."
The girl at the front desk took the ID card he handed over and started to handle the check-in procedures. The man in black looked at Lucas and said jokingly, "It's raining so hard today, could it be that there is a dragon flying in the sky?"
"There is no dragon." Lucas looked at the man calmly, glancing at the lightning flashing outside, "In the scientific society, myths are all lies."
The man in black, who had been smiling cheerfully, suddenly became gloomy. He snatched the ID card from the girl at the front desk, stared at Lucas with his dark eyes, and turned away.
The girl at the front desk was confused by this sudden change. Aren’t they going to stay in a hotel? Why were they going outside when it was raining so hard?
"Maybe he forgot to bring his wallet." Lucas stood up and took a mop from the corner, and cleaned up the water stains left on the customer's feet, leaving no trace of dust.
It rained heavily all night, and when Lucas got off work in the morning, the rain had not stopped. His rental house was far away, and he had to walk for 20 to 30 minutes after getting off the bus.
There was almost no one passing by in the narrow alley on a rainy morning. Lucas was not surprised at all to see the man in black standing in the alley.
The man in black looked very anxious. He stared at Lucas and said again: "It's raining so hard, there must be a dragon flying in the sky."
"No." Lucas is a very principled demon. If he says no, then it means no.
A strong wind suddenly arose, making a terrible whistling sound in the alley.
The black-clothed man's eyes turned red, and scary black lines appeared on his face: "I'm going to eat you."
He practiced for thousands of years. In his early years, he ate countless boys and girls in order to transform into a dragon. He hid from monks and Taoists all day long. He didn't expect that he would be destroyed by this human. If he failed to transform into a dragon, he would need to practice for hundreds of years. Who knows if he will die at the hands of a human in these hundreds of years.
Looking at the monster transformed into a black dragon attacking him, Lucas held the umbrella in front of himself.
He disliked this kind of hairless animal the most. Its body was slippery and cold. If he looked at it for a few more seconds, he would get goose bumps.
The monsters transformed and caused chaos, causing panic among monsters throughout the city. The Cultivation Management Department was busy all night and did not even have time to catch their breath before they discovered lightning flashing in the west of the city, which was beyond the scope of natural phenomena.
"Oh no, the monster failed in its attempt to escape from the evil spirit and is so angry that it wants to do something evil." Sarah counted with her fingers, opened the window and jumped down from the fourth floor.
In the alley, Lucas was holding an umbrella, without a single drop of rain on his body. The black dragon transformed into a human form again, with a bruise on his forehead. The two were several meters apart, and neither of them moved.
"So you are also a monster. Since we are both monsters, why don't you lend me a hand?" The black dragon's eyes were full of resentment.
"Why should I help you?" Lucas was puzzled. Transforming from a dragon to a dragon was a chance given by Heaven. This evil dragon that had eaten human flesh regarded him as a destined person. The fact that he had not been given a title was because Heaven was unwilling to help him. "You feed on human flesh and other small monsters, so you have no chance to become a dragon."
"This happened hundreds of years ago!" Black Flood Dragon said unwillingly, "Even if I didn't eat those people, they would have died long ago. The demon world is a place where the strong prey on the weak. If I ate them, they deserved it."
After the establishment of the Dynasty, he never cannibalized anyone again. Why should he still pursue those trivial things from his early years?
"The law of nature is fair. It will not erase your past deeds just because time has passed." Lucas looked up at the rolling black clouds in the sky, "Go away. You can't become a dragon."
If he didn't leave now, the buns at his favorite bun shop would be sold out.
"You ignorant little demon, stop talking nonsense." The black dragon could no longer hold back his anger and savagery, "I'm going to eat you."
Lucas sighed: "You city monsters are really weird. You used to kill monsters when you disagreed with them, and now you want to eat monsters when you can't reach an agreement with them. Are you trying to bully us country monsters because we have no knowledge?"
Lucas thinks he has a good temper and is very reasonable, but he doesn't like others bullying him for no reason.
Country monsters also have bottom lines and face.
Sarah's driving skills were very good, but no matter how good her driving skills were, she couldn't compete with the crowded traffic in the imperial capital. Seeing the changing situation in the west of the city, she was extremely anxious and wanted to take out her flying sword and step on it to fly directly over.
"There's no point in being anxious," Max advised, "Sister Xu, the imperial capital is a place where the country is prosperous, and there's a golden dragon sitting there, so the evil dragon shouldn't have the courage to come out and cause trouble."
"I'm afraid that if he fails in his bid for the title, he will kill the person who is destined to be with him to vent his anger." Sarah looked back at Daniel who was sitting in the back seat without saying anything, "Boss, what should we do now?"
Daniel looked up at the sky in the west of the city. There was a boiling evil spirit and rolling dark clouds. It seemed that thunder could fall at any time. He took out his cell phone and called the police station in charge of public security in the west of the city.
"Xiao Peng." The director came out and said to Peng Hang, who was still drinking soy milk and eating steamed buns, "You should take your team to search the alleys right now. The public has reported that there is a suspected murderer in that alley."
"Murderer?" Peng Hang stuffed the remaining half of the bun into his mouth and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. "Director, are you kidding me?"
Can the public now tell which passerby is a murderer with their naked eyes? More importantly, their police station hasn't received any major cases recently, right?
"Why waste so much time talking? Just go and check it out." The director couldn't say that the call was from the National Security Bureau, so he had to let the masses take the blame. Anyway, there were so many people, who knew who it was.
Peng Hang and his colleagues went to several places but failed to find the so-called murderer. On the way, they saw two men and one woman with serious expressions rushing towards an alley. He thought about it and followed his colleagues.
In the alley, a young man was standing with an umbrella. At his feet lay a black snake as thick as a bowl. It was unclear whether it was dead or injured, as it was soaked in the rain and lay motionless.
Seeing them appear, the young man pointed at the snake and said, "Here is a wounded python. Should we send it to the zoo?"
Peng Hang held onto the wall. Isn’t this the brat who used fake medicine to cheat people?
