A man among dragons, building a mysterious ancient church.

Chapter 52 Chu Zihang: Caesar, you are no match for me

At the main campus of Kassel College, white doves, symbols of peace, stroll carefree on the lawn, while clear sunlight filters through the leaves, casting countless dappled patterns.

As Chu Zihang walked along the campus path, he pondered how to play the role of the provocateur.

Since the last meeting, when he learned of the mistake, and after the dreamers were promoted one after another, Chu Zihang felt a little pressure.

They began frantically carrying out missions, and after completing each mission, they would immediately contact Professor Schneider and quickly take on the next one.

Busier than a donkey pulling a millstone, Chu Zihang flew almost all over North America.

Having fully digested the Hunter's Potion by completing the fifth mission, and having prayed to Mr. Fool, I obtained the Sequence 8 Provocateur Potion recipe.

Since Chu Zihang didn't have enough contribution points to exchange for the main material, he tried to ask the professors and senior members of the executive department for help. Kassel had various channels to obtain the Dragon Blood main material.

Chu Zihang was promoted to Provocateur without any problems.

The Provocateur Potion also provides bonuses to physical attributes, improving strength, agility, and reaction time, and greatly enhancing perception, allowing for precise insight into what the target is most sensitive to in terms of words and actions.

He also gained a supernatural ability called 'Provocation', which can enrage a target and make them lose their mind. Even if the target is already irrational, it can also make the target feel great hatred towards the provocateur.

Chu Zihang was initially puzzled as to why the Hunter Path could have the ability to provoke, as it seemed useless.

It wasn't until one mission that Chu Zihang and his teammates encountered a nimble and agile degenerate hybrid who attempted to defeat the mission specialists one by one through speed that Chu Zihang discovered the wonderful use of provocation.

He can use provocation to effectively draw the enemy's aggro, much like a main tank in an online game, thereby protecting his teammates. Then, with the help of his teammates and the grenade traps he sets up along the way, he can eliminate the target.

Because of Mr. Fool's mission, Chu Zihang had been trying to befriend the executives. Although he was not good with words, his various actions made the executives think highly of him.

In addition, Chu Zihang was always able to draw the prey's aggro and take the initiative to protect them, so more and more specialists in the execution department began to praise Chu Zihang.

Professor Schneider originally thought he had struck gold, being able to take on such a charismatic and capable student as his last disciple.

But gradually, Schneider began to worry about his student's mental state; after all, mixed-race people are not made of iron.

Even machines made of metal-mixed circuits need to cool down and rest after working for a long time, let alone people.
Chu Zihang's behavior of flying all over North America and frantically carrying out missions in just over ten days surprised the professor.

Schneider then forcibly suspended Chu Zihang's mission, requiring him to rest for a period of time.

It's currently summer vacation in Kassel, and since Chu Zihang refuses to go home, he naturally has no choice but to return to school.

Forced to halt his path of violence, Chu Zihang returned to Kassel, but this man simply couldn't stay idle.

Even though Professor Schneider asked him to rest, Chu Zihang was still thinking about how to better play the role of the provocateur.

After being promoted and undertaking several missions, Chu Zihang discovered that the digestion speed of the Provocateur Potion was very slow, far less efficient than during his hunter days.

"Chu Zihang, well done."

Lost in thought, I heard a laugh full of admiration coming from ahead. Looking up, I could see a handsome blond man.

Her flowing hair was more dazzling than gold under the sun, and her features were as perfect as a stone sculpture painstakingly carved by an ancient Greek stonemason.

The blond boy wasn't wearing the dark green school uniform from Kassel; instead, he opted for a full white suit, making him look more like a young nobleman attending a banquet than a student.

However, this young nobleman was somewhat unserious, deliberately leaving three buttons undone on his suit jacket, brazenly displaying his exaggerated pectoral muscles to his classmates.

As a university, Kassel naturally allows students to stay on campus during holidays. Even though some students choose to go home, many students still remain on campus.

"I heard you got approved to join the Executive Department for an early internship, completed several tasks, and even became the president of the Lionheart Society." "Not bad, that's more like it. The right to use Norton Hall next semester will still belong to our student council."

It might sound a bit arrogant, but Chu Zihang knew that Caesar was just that kind of person—unruly and proud, yet possessing innate leadership qualities, his words and actions inspiring people like a king.

The Lionheart Society, a century-old club with a history even longer than that of Kassel, was the first club established after the university's founding and remains influential to this day.

Caesar, who enrolled a year earlier than Chu Zihang, formed a student council, challenged the Lionheart Society, and successfully won, becoming the most dazzling mixed-race student on campus.

Therefore, Chu Zihang could understand this confidence, but faced with Caesar's statement, which was similar to a 'challenge,' Chu Zihang did not want to accept the challenge.

In the past, considering the expectations the Lionheart Society members had for him, Chu Zihang might have led the Lionheart Society to confront Caesar head-on.

But things are different now. Chu Zihang has learned some information about Odin from the Old Church and is focused on digesting the potion to become stronger.

Ultimately, he went to kill Odin and rescue his father, leaving him little free time to compete with Caesar in the academy.

"I'm sorry, Caesar, I don't have much time." Chu Zihang shook his head slightly, trying to refuse.

Upon hearing this, Caesar raised an eyebrow arrogantly: "Is the Executive Department that busy? In another month, it will be our Kassel's day of freedom."

"If I tell the professor in advance, it should be easy to find the time, right?"

Caesar wasn't one to get entangled, but Chu Zihang was different. After entering Kassel, among all the students in the college, Chu Zihang was the only one who could be considered his competitor.

Both have the same A-grade bloodline rating, are both leaders of large organizations, and are equally outstanding.

This has led to ongoing discussions on Kassel's internal forums about who is truly the top student.

From birth, Caesar received a royal education from his family. The exceptional Caesar was always number one from the moment he became aware of competition.

This time, he also really wanted to defeat Chu Zihang head-on and take first place without any controversy.

Can't politely refuse? Then...

Chu Zihang's eyes, hidden behind his dark brown contact lenses, betrayed no emotion: "Sorry, I just feel that you are no match for me."

If I can't be tactful, I'll try being more direct; perhaps that way I can refuse Caesar.

This was Chu Zihang's honest opinion; he truly did not believe that Caesar would be his opponent.

It wasn't that Chu Zihang became arrogant after joining the Execution Department and completing a few missions.

Chu Zihang remained calm, fully aware that with the enhancement from the magic potion, his current physical abilities were more than enough to defeat two of his past selves.

In the past, Caesar was on par with him; to put it another way, Chu Zihang could now fight two Caesars.

And this refers to Chu Zihang not using Bloodlust, but only using his normal state.

"!" Caesar's relaxed and smug expression suddenly froze. If the students who were unaware of the situation saw this, they might have misunderstood and thought that Chu Zihang had slapped Caesar.

For someone as arrogant as Caesar, Chu Zihang's words were worse than a slap in the face.

Chu Zihang also looked at Caesar in surprise. What happened? Why did the Provocateur Potion only slightly digest a little bit?
