  The driver was right. The road was quiet.

  The taxi arrived at the bottom, and Zhang Zian felt lucky to be alive. He rushed to get out of the car.

  Mt. Hidden Fog was a small and bland mountain that merely any outlanders were familiar with. Being only four or five hundred meters high and with a gently sloped terrain, it was, in fact, an excellent location for hiking. There weren’t any attraction points up the mountain, nor any special wonders. It was a quiet place and nothing else. Most tourist came in the fall to look at the maple leaves. It was the beginning of fall. Green trees started turning yellow and it wasn’t very pretty yet.

  Mt. Hidden Fog was named because it was often covered with fog, especially in the spring.

  Zhang Zian had been here several times when he was little. He also came for a few spring and fall field trips when he was in Junior High. It had been more than 10 years since his last visit.

  He once again confirmed the pet’s location on the map within the game. When the target was far away, the map only showed a rough location. As he got closer to the pet, the pet’s location was much more accurate on the map. At this point, the flashing ring representing the rare pet was located over the main mountain. However, he couldn’t zoom in any further.

  In other words, the rare pet could be any place in the main mountain. Besides the top of the mountain, it could be anywhere on either side of the mountain. Even though Mt. Hidden Fog wasn’t high, it was a mountain surrounded by trees, swamps and the possibility of crags. Without detailed information, it would be extremely hard to find the pet, which might take more than one day.

  Thinking of “search of the mountain,” he felt frustrated. This would take more than one person.

  Similar to other attractions, there were many street vendors at the bottom of the mountain. However, it was not a tourist hotspot the government didn’t really regulate the vendors here. As a result, they spread out as they wished.

  The street vendors sold convenient food and drinks like water, tea, bread and spam, etc. As Zhang Zian walked by, they all tried to sell him something. “Hi handsome! Going up the mountain? Take some food and drinks with you. They are going to be very expensive up the hill!”


  Zhang Zian glanced at the drinks. They had to be counterfeit. Someone might have collected the bottles and refilled with who-knew-what. Was it even safe to drink? Well, good luck.

  Besides food and drinks, some vendors sold hiking boots and umbrellas. Someone spoke to him loudly, “Hi, handsome! You have to bring an umbrella. The weather changes very quickly up the hill. It might rain anytime.”


  The target customers for the hiking shoes vendors, were people who came with heels or dress shoes. Seeing that Zhang Zian was wearing sneakers, the shoe vendors didn’t even bother talking to him.

  He wasn’t sure what to do. He came in a rush and wasn’t thinking. With only his wallet and cell phone, he basically didn’t have enough equipment to search the mountain.

  This was a lesson to him. Pets in the game not only appeared in the city, but also in the suburbs. He would at least bring a portable charger next time.

  “Navigation Elf, tell me how to categorize the rarity of pets? What is Premier?” he asked his cell phone.

  [Navigation Elf]: Elfin is categorized in six classes. They are Elite, Elite/Premier, Premier, Premier/Epic, Epic, Epic/Legendary. Legendary Elfin doesn’t exist in this game because they are equal to spirits.

  “Okay…So is Epic better than Premier?” he asked again.

  [Navigation Elf]: Not always true. Every field has its masters. Epic only means that the pet’s faithful power is stronger and it has a deeper influence in a certain field. Sometimes an Elite pet might not be worse than an Epic.

  He understood now. This is comparable to a city’s mayor and a chef. A mayor is powerful and reputable. He might be even managing the hospitality industry. However, when it comes to cooking skills, a chef would KO a mayor immediately.

  Looking up at Mt. Hidden Fog covered in light fog, he knew he had to hike this mountain. He would not regret it if he could not find the pet. He would regret if he stopped at the bottom of the hill.

  As he was zoning out, someone patted him on the shoulder.

  He was scared to death and almost dropped his cell phone.

  “Ha-ha! Mr. Pretend-to-know-it-all, time to pay you back!”


  “I already recorded his expression. I am going to make funny faces out of it…”


  “Why was Mr. Manager zoning out? Did he have too much sex last night?”


  “Why did Mr. Manager goof off? You should’ve been in the store at this time.”


  “Did he follow Snowy here? Disgusting stalker!”


  Jiang Qianxue was standing behind him with her cell phone pointing at him. A sneaky big smile was on her face.

  “Hello, Mr. Manager! What a coincidence to see you here!”


  Zhang Zian had the crap scared out of himself and said, “You should apologize to me before even saying hello.”


  She bowed down, “I am very sorry, Mr. Manager. My fans all wanted me to scare you…”


  Zhang Zian was unhappy. He pulled a long face and said, “Is this how you apologize? That’s not even serious. It is common sense that you have to show your boobs when you apologize.”


  She acted scared and covered up her chest.

  “What the f*ck! Mr. Manager, if you dare to see Snowy’s boobs, I will kill you!”


  “I will call the police!”


  “Mr. Sexual Manager go to hell! Snowy is mine!”


  “Mr. Sexual Manager, I will beat you to death!”


  “Shut up, Mr. Sexual Manager!”


  [The Hottie Manager] entered the live broadcast room.

  “Here I come. Come fight me!” [The Hottie Manager] wrote.

  The monitor suddenly was full of cursing from the fans. Everyone said something like, “This is the most shameless person on earth!”


  Snowy was a nice surprise to Zhang Zian. After fighting back to the fans in the broadcast room, he began to act serious. “Snowy, why are you here?”


  “Snowy, don’t tell him! Ask him why he is there!” the fans said.

  “That is right. See if he is a stalker!”


  Jiang Qianxue smiled and asked, “I am a live show camgirl. I came here for a show. Why are you here?”


  Zhang Zian replied seriously, “To bring my powerful greatness to the unruly.

  The street vendors thought, “Excuse me? Who is the unruly? Your whole family is unruly!”


  “Umm…so Mr. Manager, your job is an urban management officer?”


  He put his thumb up, “Nice try!”


  “In fact… I came here for a break. Work hard, play hard!” he brushed her off with a whatever excuse knowing that capturing rare pets was a secret that he could never reveal.
