The strange man left the fruit stall and disappeared into the mountain forest on the border between Wansheng Country and Luo Ze Empire.

He unwound the bandage wrapped around his head, revealing a face that seemed neither human nor ape-like, and took out a grey skull ring.

A black shadow crawled out from the ring and transformed into a black bat, flapping its wings in front of the strange man.

Suddenly, a sweet female voice emanated from the bat,

"It's been a long time, Mr. Chuyuan."

The ape-man called Chuyuan took out an apple from his bag and offered it to the bat, "Would you like an apple?"

"Mr. Chuyuan, I've already told you, this bat is just a concentration of magic power and doesn't have any biological functions."

The extended hand slowly retracted, and Chuyuan slowly put the apple back into his bag,

"I'm sorry, I forgot.

Living in the human world isn't easy. There are quite a few things to deal with every day.

I can feel the pressure, but it's only by enduring it that one can truly live as a 'person.'"

The bat didn't say much but continued flapping its wings,

"Just to confirm once more, the task I've just assigned to you, you understand it and have remembered everything, right?"

Chuyuan nodded,

"On the battlefield between the two countries, a special man has appeared, with a threat Level of five, the highest level, who may change the stalemate of the war.

Let me confirm again...

Are you sure you want to eliminate him?"

"Absolutely certain.

That guy is different from Wanzhang Lion; he popped up from who knows where.

He's smart, and he might have already sensed our presence, so he must be eliminated.

Besides, they once conquered a Super Large Maze, which was my master's pride, and they defeated it.

Please be cautious with this task.

Remember to make your move where there are fewer people, and do not reveal your identity.

If necessary, we'll release bait to coordinate with your actions."

The bat kept babbling endlessly, whereas Chuyuan slightly lifted his head, his eyes filled with longing as he looked at the bat:

"This task is very important, right? If I complete it successfully, can I undergo another modification..."

The bat fell silent for a while, leaving only the sound of its wing flaps in the air.

After about five or six minutes, the bat spoke again:

"No problem, I've already asked my master for you.

If you complete this task smoothly, we will guide you through another evolution.

Please don't forget all this is based on your oath of loyalty to my master.

Also, do not forget that it was my master who bestowed kindness upon you when you were most helpless.

And only my master can fulfill your wishes."

"Of course, I remember.

I swore to become one of you, and he is now my master as well.

I will complete this task and become a real human."

"Then please follow this bat, it will lead you to your target.

That guy is particularly conspicuous, wearing a strange mask and with colorful hair.

You'll know it when you see him."

Rising from a perching stump, Chuyuan followed the bat's lead.

Along the way, several little squirrels scurried out from their tree holes. Chuyuan's gaze followed the squirrels for a while, then he took out an apple from his bag, skillfully climbed up the tree, and left the rest for the little squirrels.

Around Qinghe Volcano, Yang Yu continued to command his troops in guerrilla tactics.

Due to the presence of Volcrix, the mass-produced camouflage clothes were still exposed to the Luo Ze Empire.

Although there was an approach of capturing all the Luo Ze soldiers who claimed to be investigating Enchanting Demons but were actually spying, letting them go was of more significance than capturing them.

If anything was significant about this encounter with Heroic Warrior Volcrix...

It was that through repeated tests of Volcrix, Yang Yu learned of new limitations of the System.

When Yang Yu first met the Hero, he had a pretty good idea of Volcrix's personality. If both he and Iyas appeared before him, he was sure to react violently.

The reason Volcrix was able to speak calmly with him was most likely due to the influence of the System panel.

The character names he saw for Yang Yu and Iyas were most likely Potato Thorn and Yellow Flower.

Previously, Yang Yu could determine someone's allegiance based on their character name's suffix or prefix.

Using this, Yang Yu had received many benefits until now.

However, the fact that the character name that appeared might not be one's real name made it difficult for Yang Yu.

While commanding the troops in guerrilla warfare, Yang Yu considered several possibilities.

Among them, Yang Yu felt the most likely was that they had made their false names "come true."

Before getting involved in the war between Wansheng Country and Luo Ze Empire, although Yang Yu had also met with a significant number of people, it was nowhere near the number he interacted with during the war.

Suppose, just suppose... this is just a hypothesis...

What is displayed on a person's panel might be decided by the masses.

In the book "The True Story of Ah Q", the protagonist Ah Q has a name, but because he is always called Ah Q by others, he acquired the name Ah Q.

When talking about him, others always called him Ah Q, and gradually, they no longer cared what Ah Q's actual name was.

Suppose there is a beggar with a name that comes to the royal capital to beg, and others only know him as an old beggar so they call him that, and gradually, the people in the royal capital unify in calling him old beggar, to the point that even he gradually forgets his real name...

Then, will only "Old Beggar" be displayed on his panel, and not his real name?

To have the old beggar's real name displayed on the panel, without asking the old beggar himself, what could be the way?

Yang Yu looked at the panels of Bai Jin and Iyas, and their names hadn't changed...

What he saw might not be the same as what Volcrix saw.

There is still more to delve into with this panel.

If the hypothesis holds true, Yang Yu also wanted to know whether this judgment also applied to race.

When Yang Yu had Bai Jin remove her Race Disguise Necklace, it was both for her safety and to see Volcrix's reaction.

He wanted to confirm how Bai Jin's race appeared to Volcrix...

Was she initially appearing as a human or as an elf from the start?

Unfortunately, Volcrix's reaction was unremarkable, and Yang Yu couldn't make a definitive judgment rashly.

If a person's race, status, or even attributes could be concealed, it could become quite problematic.

There were spies within the Luo Ze Empire.

If those spies had lived with the people of the Luo Ze Empire for years, or even decades, the identities they used to hide were already accepted by others, and the attributes displayed on the panel were unremarkable, it would take immense effort to expose them.

Yang Yu had decided that after the operation at Qinghe Volcano, it would be necessary to conduct some investigations to find a way to unearth the true identities of others.
