The Great Worm Lich

Chapter 138: The New Use Of the Crocodragon

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The “simplify” wizard curse that Zhang Lisheng obtained after making a breakthrough to Rank-5 Wizard level was not something that could be efficacious forever once it was cast. Instead, it needed to be cast once every five days repetitively before it could remain effective for a long time.

After he cast the “simplify” curse in the new LS Slaughterhouse’s office, he regained the ability to command the wizard gu and cast a curse through his thoughts. Turning back to his desk, he turned the computer on and entered the password to enter the remote control management system of the factory, opening the reserved pipeline passing through the trenches below the slaughterhouse all the way to the Atlantic Ocean.

At the instant when Zhang Lisheng pressed the keyboard button, in the shallow seashore that was several dozen meters high outside the coastline of the ocean, a horizontal black metal cover with a diameter of about 20 meters was slowly unscrewing.

At the same time, in the deep sea, a giant beast, that had a length of more than 50 meters, rose from the bottom of the sea by paddling with its limbs. Swimming across the sea rapidly, it smashed countless amounts of fishes that could not escape in time into piles of meat, rushing into the thick pipeline sealed by the black metal cover that had been completely unscrewed by now.

After driving Crocodragon to the entrance of the underground trench connecting the Atlantic Ocean underneath the slaughterhouse, Zhang Lisheng began to operate the computer to reseal the pipe. He commanded the wizard gu to open its mouth wide and stay in the pipeline just like that.

As the slaughterhouse began to operate both day and night, by the third day, the internal organs and blood of the animals had accumulated in the hundreds of square trenches — with a depth of 50 meters and its width more than 100 meters long — that were interconnected in the base of the floor, that looked like it would never be filled, started to overflow till they gushed into the pipeline going straight to the ocean.

After the blood — that appeared to be a red river along with the internal organs — flowed into the pipeline, it soon vanished inside the Crocodragon’s widely opened mouth, which meant that as long as this wizard gu was here, the trench of the new LS Slaughterhouse would never be filled.

Such a situation had already been expected by Zhang Lisheng. As the “simplify” curse came into effect, and that he could feel that everything was being carried out as he had first imagined, the young man who was eating lunch at home breathed a sigh of relief quietly. Taking a bite of the pork pancake, he asked his mother, “Mum, can I go to Hawaii for my summer holiday?”

“Hawaii? Oh! That’s the best holiday destination for midsummer! Sun, beach, beautiful bikinis... I mean healthy sea sport! Dad, Auntie Lili, I think Lisheng’s idea is very good...”

“This idea is good! But Randy, don’t forget that you still need to go to training for your university’s football team...”

“The training only lasts for one and a half months! One and a half months! I still have half of my holiday time to relax...”

“You’re right! That’s why I’ve already bought a return train ticket for all of you! It has been two years already since you last saw your grandfather and grandmother! For this reason, you must go spend a few weeks in Aide Town during this summer holiday! There’s a beautiful beach there as well! As for Lisheng, you’ve been in this country for less than a year so it’s natural for you to want to go to the world-famous Hawaii in the summer.” Lavin looked at his beloved lover beside him. “Lili, you know that more crimes will take place in this scorching summer season in New York so I won’t be able to take any leave. Why don’t you go to Hawaii with Lisheng?”

“Huh?! This is unfair, Dad! You want me to play at the beach in New Jersey? I might as well just go to New York Harbor to play! Why can Lisheng go to Hawaii but we have to...” Randy, who was complaining, suddenly remembered that Zhang Lisheng who had no blood relationship with the Lavin family might feel awkward if he went to New Jersey so he shut up right away.

“Ah, Editor West from the Metropolitan Press wants to proofread that ‘what are on the young people’s minds” draft in these few weeks so I have no time to spare as well. Baby, why would you suddenly want to go to Hawaii? Or perhaps...”

“Mum, I saw an article written by Professor Lautres from Oxford University on the Internet about the unique biological chain on the Hawaiian Islands. I’m very interested in it so I plan to go there to carry out a field study about it. Actually, I originally planned to go the instant the summer holiday starts but it’s because we have to welcome Michelle from the hospital that I decided to postpone it until now...”

“To study the unique biological chain of the Hawaiian Islands? Then does this mean that you originally planned to go by yourself, baby?”

“That right mum. Hawaii is not the Amazon so you should rest assured.”

“Alright, young man! You’re already 17 years old and you already have your own business as well. Now that you also have a legitimate reason, of course you can go wherever you want but remember, don’t swim at the beach without any protective net and don’t play those dangerous sea sports,” Lili was stunned for a moment before saying in a low voice.

“I know, mum. Don’t worry, I’m not interested at all in those sea sports, no matter whether it’s dangerous or not.”

Lili nodded in a blue mood. Seeing how her spirit became withered in an instant, Lavin hugged his love tightly right away. “My dear, don’t be like this. I told you that the children will naturally have their own interests and worlds when they grow up. It’s impossible for them to stay forever by your side, in particular a kid such as Lisheng who is smart and precocious. He may look 17 years old this year but I think right now, Lisheng definitely has a higher EQ than a 27-year-old Randy. We can rest assured to let him arrange his own life.”

“Hey, dad! You haven’t seen me at the age of 27 yet so how could you say that?!”

“Randy, even though nobody has seen how you are like at the age of 27, everyone at home can see your current EQ okay? There’s a word called ‘speculation’...”

“Harry Lavin! Speaking of speculation, can you speculate that you’d be beaten after finishing your lunch?” Randy stole a peek at Lavin who was still comforting Lili and waved his fist furiously at Harry who was pulling a face at him, before threatening viciously in a whisper.

“Beaten? Dear brother, don’t you think that it’d only show how low your EQ is by threatening your own brother like this all the time?” The lunch quickly passed under the bickering of Harry and Randy, these two brothers who shared the same father but different mother.

After leaving the table, Zhang Lisheng, who received Lili’s permission, immediately called the John F. Kennedy International Airport to book his ticket.

Due to the season and the summer holiday, early July was the period of time where most passengers would fly from New York to Hawaii. Because of this, it was very difficult for anybody to book a ticket for the next day. “Of course there’s a flight to Hawaii tomorrow, sir. but, I’m sorry that the United Airlines...”

“If there’s no more plane ticket, I’m okay with chartering a plane as well,” Zhang Lisheng, who earned several hundred thousands of dollars in the span of three to four days, interrupted crudely.

“Oh.” It was apparent that the airport ticket attendant on the other end of the phone did not expect that this voice that was neither an airline VIP nor old enough would say so. “You’ve misunderstood me, sir. Even though the United Arlines that would transit in Los Angeles has been fully booked already, there are still available tickets for the American Airlines K565 direct flight. The aircraft is only separated into first-class and business class. It will take off at 10 am and will reach the Honolulu International Airport after 4 hours and 30 minutes. The fare for the first-class is 4,900 dollar while the business class is 240 dollars. There’s no discount for both classes.”

The Hawaiian Islands was the 50th and smallest state of America. Of the 132 islands making up of the Hawaiian Islands, only Oahu, Molokai, Kauai and Maui islands were where people were allowed to reside in.

The Oahu Island was situated in the center of the Pacific Ocean. Even though the land area could not be said as the largest in the archipelago, it was the most open to public use. There was a city in the northeast of the island that was Hawaii’s capital and also the most economically developed city. This city was none other than Honolulu.

The direct flight from New York to Honolulu was less than five hours but the fare was close to 5000 dollars. Even though it was first-class seats, it was still apparently pricey compared to other first-class seats. Even so, this was the business strategy for the airlines.

Those who would go for a vacation in such a tourist spot like Hawaii would usually have some savings as well. Among these people, the passengers who did not want to waste their time transiting and wanted to save three to five hours would most definitely have a higher net worth. They would usually not care about the high ticket price.

As it turned out, the airline’s business strategy was indeed very successful. Upon hearing the airport ticket attendant’s words, Zhang Lisheng said without hesitation, “Give me a first-class seat.”

“Alright, sir. You’ll have to pay for the ticket through the e-banking platform first. Just head directly to the VIP lounge tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

After Zhang Lisheng finished buying the ticket, he, who had nothing to do, climbed on the bed and pulled the curtain on the bedside. Then, he motioned for Mountoad to leap out from his bed to his side, before starting to cultivate the secret method that he had not done for a long time.

The circulation was formed and the Demon’s image in Zhang Lisheng’s mind only lacked its head right now. As the young man fell into a state of being half awake, time quickly passed by.

In the evening when his mother came to tell him to eat, she helped him pack for clothes to change into.

Even though Lili was already slightly used to having his son away from her after the Amazon trip that Zhang Lisheng went last time, she still hugged the teenager with her eyes red as she repeatedly advised before she went downstairs.

Zhang Lisheng nodded continuously at his mother’s concerns, although in actual fact, he did not pay any attention to it at all. After finishing up his dinner, he excused himself to return to his own room early, with the excuse that he would have to catch an early plane tomorrow, before dialing Tina’s number.

“Tina, I’m taking a 10 am flight to Hawaii tomorrow. I’ll reach Honolulu International Airport at about 2.30pm.”

“You’re finally coming, Lisheng! This is amazing! But you should have told me earlier. Sheila is sick of Honolulu already and wanted to come to Kauai no matter what. Trish and I were forced by her till we really had no other choice...”

“Don’t worry, I can find a hotel and stay there first before I find a way to find you on Kauai.”

“Oh, you’re such a marvelous person, Lisheng! That’s right! I’ve made a few new local friends in Honolulu so I can ask them to help fetch you from the airport and settle you down tomorrow.”

“There’s no need for that, I can take care of myself.”

“It’s your first time coming to Hawaii so it’s better to have a guide.”

“Alright then, I’ll see you in Kauai!”

“Alright, I’ll see you in Kauai!”

After ending the call, Zhang Lisheng began to cultivate the secret method and soon, the night unknowingly went by.

The next morning, he took the beef patty that Lili prepared for him and took a taxi to John F. Kennedy International Airport. After waiting for a while in the VIP lounge, he boarded the flight towards Honolulu Airport in Hawaii.

Expensive tickets naturally had a thoughtful service, whether it was the beverages offered along the way, or the attitude of the flight attendants, or the lobster meal offered midway. All in all, this flight was absolutely perfect.

When Zhang Lisheng got off the plane, he did not feel any fatigue from the journey at all. Instead, he felt refreshed and high in spirit.
