"How long have you spent in God's Sanctuary?" Yi Dongmu asked Han Sen.
"Not long, just a few days," Han Sen said.
"Have you heard about Dollar recently?" Yi Dongmu had spent about six months in God's Sanctuary this time. He had been hunting alone and hadn't gotten any news from the outside.
Han Sen was dazed, as he hadn't expected Yi Dongmu to ask him about Dollar. He thought about it and said, "I heard that there was someone named Kill Dollar on the official platform. He won many fights consecutively. Some people said he was Dollar himself, and I wondered if it might be true."
"Tell me about the details," Yi Dongmu said immediately.
Having taken the mutant meat, Han Sen explained briefly to Yi Dongmu, and added in the end deliberately, "I have only heard about it. No one knows whether Kill Dollar's actually Dollar. And I would be the last one to know."
"It must be him. Except for him, no one could be that good," Yi Dongmu said assertively.
Han Sen was embarrassed inwardly. There were definitely evolvers who could be as good. He just had not met a truly good opponent.
"I want to hunt a sacred-blood creature and need an assistant. Come with me, I will spare you 10% of the meat after I succeed," Yi Dongmu said to Han Sen after eating a smaller half of the barbecue and tucking the rest into his pocket.
"20%." Han Sen blinked and doubled the price.
"Let's go." Yi Dongmu did not bargain further.
Han Sen like people like this a lot. Rich people who didn't care about the price and only wanted to be happy were the best.
Following Yi Dongmu eastward on the icefield, Han Sen reached the snowcapped mountains in less than two days. If he were to go back to Goddess Shelter, he would have to cross this region.
However, because of the terrain, it was not easy to pass this region. Furthermore, if he encountered sacred-blood creatures, it would be too dangerous to fight on the mountains without the ability to fly. If he were not careful, he would fall into deep valleys.
The reason that Li Xinglun and Blackgod would try to conquer the royal shelter before they expanded to the mountainous region was because of the terrain, which was unsuitable for large-scale fights.
"You are not trying to enter the mountains to hunt sacred-blood creatures, are you?" Han Sen asked Yi Dongmu, surprised.
"Relax, there is no risk. I'm only asking you to lure the creature out for me. The rest is my job. That creature has suffered at my hands, so it would not dare to come out if I were there," Yi Dongmu said quietly.
Han Sen did not say anything more and followed Yi Dongmu into the snowcapped mountains. Like Yi Dongmu said, he did not go deep into the mountains, but stopped after climbing one mountain.
"Just walk around ahead of me. When the creature comes out, run in my direction." Yi Dongmu dug a hole in the snow and lay down, asking Han Sen to bury him with the snow.
Han Sen knew that like himself, Yi Dongmu was also an assassin. He did not say much and followed Yi Dongmu's instruction, walking around in the valley ahead of him.
Looking around, all he could see were continuous snowcapped mountains. There were no creatures, let alone sacred-blood creatures.
"What creatures would be here?" Han Sen looked for a while and did not spot any creatures.
As Han Sen became impatient, he suddenly heard hoofbeats. From afar, he saw a donkey-like creature with a pair of antlers running from behind a mountain.
Its hooves were rather wide, which prevented it from being trapped in the snow. It ran toward Han Sen gaining speed, faster and faster.
"There is a creature indeed!" Han Sen did not know whether this one was the one that Yi Dongmu was talking about. He turned around to run towards where Yi Dongmu was hiding.
The creature was running so quickly that it looked like it could fly. Luckily, Han Sen was close to where Yi Dongmu was hiding and soon reached him.
The creature followed Han Sen and approached him quickly. Yi Dongmu quickly emerged from underneath the snow, appearing under the stomach of the creature and stabbing his dagger into its stomach, making a long cut.
The creature was bleeding profusely from its stomach. Forgetting about Han Sen, it neighed, turned around, and ran.
However, Yi Dongmu wouldn't let it go. Catching up with it, he cut the creature repeatedly. The creature finally fell on the ground quietly.
"Good skills, good footwork." Han Sen couldn't help complimenting. Yi Dongmu had made great progress in these years indeed. In addition, he was in Second God's Sanctuary several years earlier, so he had improved his geno points greatly.
"If it were Dollar, he would have killed the creature with the first strike. I am not good enough," Yi Dongmu said seriously.
Han Sen felt very embarrassed. Yi Dongmu was simply obsessed.
It had been several years since Yi Dongmu last saw him. So, there was no way Yi Dongmu knew what level Han Sen, or "Dollar," was on. It was completely his own illusion.
"Is that the sacred-blood creature that you were talking about?" Han Sen walked up to the creature and asked, puzzled.
Although this creature ran fast, it did not look like a sacred-blood creature judging from its fitness.
Yi Dongmu shook his head. "Not this one. This is a mutant creature."
Yi Dongmu then paused and said, "This is good as well. We will use this body as bait. That creature will come out when it smells the blood. You can stay here and make a barbecue out of this mutant creature."
Yi Dongmu then dug another hole and hid himself again.
"Brother, you don't need to work so hard. How about we continue after eating something together?" asked Han Sen.
"No need. If it were Dollar, he would have done even better," Yi Dongmu said seriously and urged Han Sen to bury him up.
Han Sen did not know what to say. He felt somewhat embarrassed. He did not feel he was as good as Yi Dongmu had described.
Han Sen buried Yi Dongmu up again. Dissecting the mutant creature's body, Han Sen thought it was a bit too big for him to eat. He then summoned Meowth and offered him the food.
Meowth bit the body of the mutant creature excitedly. As for Archangel, she wasn't interested in eating mutant meat at all, and didn't want to come out.
Han Sen took out a piece of barbecued snake fish king, eating while squatting over the snow. He soon heard the voice telling him the increase of sacred geno points.
Seeing that Han Sen was feeding mutant meat to his pet, Yi Dongmu frowned slightly. This behavior was a bit too extravagant. Even Yi Dongmu himself had never done that before.
After all, the resources on this icefield were so limited that Yi Dongmu had not even filled up his mutant geno points yet.
After Han Sen had just taken a few bites, he heard loud hoofbeats behind the mountain again.
