313: Feng, see through the details (two in one)

“…” Lin Yang was dumbfounded.

What did this guy say?

His enemy wasn’t one person, nor a group of people, but an entire Universe Country??

“An entire… Universe Country?” Lin Yang somewhat suspected he had misheard.

“What? Scared?” The male looked at him with a smile.

“If I said I wasn’t scared, would you believe me?” Lin Yang curled his lips.

This guy was an Extraordinary Warrior, so without needing to think, it was clear that the Universe Country he spoke of was the Extraordinary Universe Kingdom.

One person being an enemy to an entire Extraordinary Universe Kingdom was more or less quite absurd.

“Haha, it’s normal for you to be scared now, but a Universe Country is not invincible, and you shouldn’t feel too much pressure. Didn’t I say that if your ability is insufficient, you don’t need to fulfill your promise?” The male laughed heartily.

“Alright.” Lin Yang didn’t say more.

Since the other party had already laid it out so clearly, what else could he say? He had already taken all the advantages.

“Alright, I must go. Time is running out.” The male sighed.

“Hmm? What time is running out?” Lin Yang was a bit confused.

“I’m going to die.” The male said again.

Lin Yang: “…”

He looked at the male with a strange expression.

This guy said he was going to die shortly after waking up. Was he serious or joking?

“I’m not joking with you. You thought you saved me, but in fact, my self-sealing in the ice coffin this time was because my lifespan was at its end, and I was looking for a good feng shui spot to be buried.”

The male looked at Lin Yang and slowly said.

“But for some unknown reason, an accident occurred, and the ice coffin unexpectedly fell into this starfield. Your forced awakening of me with that supreme-grade extraordinary material actually accelerated my death. So, I don’t have much time left. I need to reach my chosen burial ground before I completely die.”

“Ah??” Lin Yang was instantly stunned.

He thought he had saved this male, but he never expected that he had actually accelerated the other party’s death??

“Sorry, I really didn’t expect it to be like this…”

After a moment of silence, Lin Yang spoke with some shame.

“It’s fine. You were well-intentioned and didn’t understand the situation. You don’t need to worry about it.” The male waved his hand and said indifferently, “Even if you hadn’t awakened me this time, I wouldn’t have much time left to live anyway. It would just be a few days later.”

“This…” Lin Yang was at a loss for words.

This truly was a case of good intentions leading to bad outcomes.

The male looked at him and slowly said, “You don’t need to care. Besides, if you hadn’t awakened me this time, I wouldn’t have had the chance to cooperate with you, and I would have lost the opportunity to avenge myself in the future. This is also a good thing.”

Lin Yang was silent for a while again, then asked, “Did your Life naturally come to an end, or were you injured by your enemies?”

“The latter.” The male didn’t hide it. “They used some despicable methods. I was momentarily unaware and didn’t guard against them.”

“Is there no chance of saving you at all?” Lin Yang asked again, “With your strength, finding some advanced technological civilizations for treatment shouldn’t be difficult. The more advanced the technological civilization, the more developed and advanced their medical methods are. Can’t they heal your injuries?”

“No, my injuries are a bit special.” The male shook his head, then glanced at the universe outside the porthole and said indifferently, “Alright, no more talk. I really must go. Remember, before you become strong enough, don’t reveal to anyone that you met me. Otherwise, they will kill you regardless of the reason.”

“Why? Just because I came into contact with you? Also, are ‘they’ the people from that Universe Country you just called ‘First’?” Lin Yang asked in a serious tone.

“That’s right. They are too strong, stronger than you can currently imagine. If even a little bit of information leaks, you, as you are now, will have no chance to resist.”

The male earnestly instructed.

“As for the reason, it’s as you said, just because you came into contact with me, especially when I was on the verge of death. So, you must die, it’s that simple!”

Lin Yang’s eyes flashed: “Is it because they want to find that thing you just called ‘Realm’? If I came into contact with you when you were dying, they would think you might have told me the whereabouts of ‘Realm’, so they would kill me?”

The male’s eyes instantly changed, becoming incredibly cold, even filled with killing intent as he looked at Lin Yang, but it quickly vanished: “That’s right, so it’s better for you to keep this secret, otherwise you’ll die too unjustly.”

“I understand.” Lin Yang took a deep breath.

The male didn’t tell him what that ‘Realm’ thing was, and he didn’t intend to ask.

Something that could make an entire Extraordinary Universe Kingdom want to find it at all costs must be extraordinary.

Sometimes, the more you know, the faster you die.

Moreover, this male had even passed on some of his extraordinary power to him in order to get him to help with revenge in the future, but he hadn’t mentioned ‘Realm’.

This indicated that ‘Realm’ might not be a good thing.

Otherwise, this male would have no reason not to tell him.

If he wanted to ensure Lin Yang had a better chance of helping him with revenge in the future, he should have told him.

Seeing that he had no intention of asking, the male instead said, “Don’t you want to know what ‘Realm’ is?”

“If you don’t say, there must be a reason. If ‘Realm’ could enhance power and help me with your revenge in the future, given our current relationship, you wouldn’t not tell me. But since you don’t say, that means ‘Realm’ might only be useful to that Extraordinary Universe Kingdom, so I don’t need to ask further.” Lin Yang spoke truthfully.

“Hahaha, you are indeed quite interesting.” The male laughed heartily, opened the ice coffin, lay inside, and said, “I like smart guys like you. Goodbye.”

Watching the male re-enter the ice coffin, Lin Yang quickly asked, “I still don’t know your name. If I can avenge you in the future, how should I answer if your enemies ask?”

“Feng, Feng from maple leaf.”

“Feng!” Lin Yang remembered it, watching the male about to reseal the ice coffin, and said again, “You haven’t told me the story you were going to tell just now.”

“Story?” The male’s movement paused slightly, then he smiled and said, “The story is very simple and clichéd. I won’t tell it. If there’s a chance, perhaps you can learn what story I was going to tell from somewhere else.”

“…” Lin Yang was instantly speechless.

What the heck, was this guy messing with him?

“Oh, by the way, please keep this for me. After I die, my body might not even be preserved. Since you know the origin of the red bean bracelet, please help me take good care of this red bean bracelet. If I am avenged successfully in the future, then use it to honor me.”

The male suddenly threw the red bean bracelet to Lin Yang.

Lin Yang subconsciously caught it, and at the same time, the ice coffin resealed itself.

“Feng! If I successfully avenge you in the future, where should I go to honor you?”

Seeing the ice coffin shoot out of the spaceship with an incomprehensible power and method, Lin Yang quickly shouted.

“Heart of the Extreme Sea.”

Feng’s voice directly sounded in Lin Yang’s ear.

And before Lin Yang could react, the ice coffin leaped and disappeared into the vast universe.

Lin Yang couldn’t help but glance at the red bean bracelet, then looked in the direction where the ice coffin disappeared, and whispered, “I will take good care of this red bean bracelet for you.”

Saying that, he prepared to put away the red bean bracelet.

But, a sudden voice sounded in his ear again:

“Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention, your body is too weak to inherit too much of my extraordinary power. I injected part of my extraordinary power into the red bean bracelet. You must carry this red bean bracelet with you. It might save your Life at a critical moment, and it can also shield some of the extraordinary aura clinging to you.”

“You also don’t need to worry about the people of First recognizing this red bean bracelet. Almost none of them have seen this red bean bracelet.”

“Of course, there’s only one chance to save your Life. Good luck, little guy.”

After the voice finished speaking, it dissipated. Lin Yang tried calling out a few more times, but received no further response.

Clearly, the ice coffin had completely departed.

Lin Yang looked at the red bean bracelet, thought for a moment, and still carried it close to him as per Feng’s final instruction.

Saving his Life was secondary; the main thing was that it could conceal the extraordinary aura clinging to him, which was more important.

Undoubtedly, the extraordinary aura clinging to him came from Feng. If the people of the Extraordinary Universe Kingdom sensed it prematurely, he would be finished.

So, he could only carry this red bean bracelet with him.

Afterward, he glanced at Cang Miao and Lin Mu, who were in a coma beside him, and moved them to the main ship cabin.

They had already been unconscious when he woke up, which was clearly Feng’s doing.

Perhaps there were some things Feng didn’t want them to know, so he knocked them out.

Although Lin Mu, as a mechanical Life form, generally wouldn’t be knocked out, this was clearly not a problem for Feng.

Half an hour later, Cang Miao and Lin Mu successively woke up.

“Commander, are you alright?”

The first thing they did upon waking was to look at Lin Yang nervously.

“I’m fine. How did you two faint?”

Although he knew it was Feng’s doing, Lin Yang was still curious when they were knocked out.

“Earlier, there was a very dazzling white light, and we were knocked out when we instinctively closed our eyes.”

Cang Miao and Lin Mu exchanged glances and replied.

“Oh… I see. It was Feng’s doing. You don’t need to be angry with him; he gave me a lot of help.” Lin Yang thought for a moment and briefly told them some things.

“Commander, don’t worry. As long as you’re alright and he didn’t harm you, we are at ease. Some things may not be suitable for us two to know.” Lin Mu said appropriately.

Lin Yang looked at him with some surprise. As a high-level mechanical Life form, Lin Mu’s intelligence was growing higher and higher; he even understood some human social conventions now.

Cang Miao then asked, “Commander, among the help he gave, did he provide a star map to help us get out of this starfield?”

He was more concerned about this.

“Uh… No, he didn’t.” Lin Yang was a bit amused and frustrated.

Logically speaking, Feng should have a star map.

Otherwise, how would he cross the vast universe to that Heart of the Extreme Sea?

But this guy just didn’t give any help in that regard.

“Alright, then it seems we still have to rely on ourselves.” Cang Miao smacked his lips.

“Sigh, if someone would just accept the bounty, no matter which one, we could take the opportunity to ask about the situation.” Lin Yang sighed.

No one had accepted the bounty for so long, and he was indeed a bit depressed.

But the next instant, just as he finished speaking, Lin Mu’s expression suddenly changed, becoming pleasantly surprised, and he couldn’t help but exclaim, “Commander, one of our bounties has been accepted!”

“Hmm? Ah? What did you say? Someone accepted a bounty?? Which bounty was accepted?” Lin Yang was first stunned, then also became pleasantly surprised.

“The bounty for purchasing advanced mercenary information has been accepted!” Lin Mu immediately replied.

“That’s not bad. At least we can get information on that guy with the mark on his brow.” Lin Yang nodded.

“Commander, the other party has sent an encrypted communication signal channel. Should we connect immediately?” Lin Mu asked again.

“Of course! We’ve waited so long; someone finally accepted it. Contact the other party immediately!” Lin Yang was a bit impatient.

The other party being able to obtain information on advanced mercenaries clearly meant they were the kind of well-connected guys the system spoke of, so they could certainly obtain a star map.

They desperately needed a star map right now!

This person who accepted the bounty was their greatest hope for leaving this starfield at the moment!

“Please wait, that encrypted signal needs to go through several verifications, and it also requires feedback verification from the other party to enter the channel. It will take about five minutes. The other party is very cautious.” Lin Mu added.

“Five minutes? Then no rush, take your time.” Lin Yang said.

They had waited this long, so they could certainly wait for the final five minutes.

Soon, five minutes passed, and Lin Mu successfully connected with the other party, then transferred the conversation authority to Lin Yang.

Upon successful connection, the other party’s clearly processed voice immediately came through: “Are you the one who wants to purchase advanced mercenary information?”

“Yes, may I ask how you charge?” Lin Yang also asked directly.

For such a special bounty, it was usually the other party who set the price.

“Do you need information on all advanced mercenaries, or just a specific individual?” The other party asked back.

“Can I purchase individually?” Lin Yang was a bit surprised.

“Heh heh, it seems you’re a newcomer.” The other party didn’t answer, but instead laughed.

This made Lin Yang’s heart tighten. After only one exchange, the other party had already seen through him…

These guys were indeed the sharpest of the sharp.

After the other party finished laughing, without waiting for Lin Yang to speak, he continued:

“Sir, you should know that a detailed personal information file of an advanced mercenary is not cheap, and the number of advanced mercenaries in the Cosmic Mercenary Corps is immense. It’s unrealistic to purchase information on all advanced mercenaries. This exorbitant fee is something most people cannot afford.”

“Therefore, those who usually post such bounties, although they outwardly claim to purchase information on all advanced mercenaries, in reality, they just don’t want to attract the attention of their true target. I imagine you are the same, Sir.”

This person explained to Lin Yang.

Lin Yang couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. They were still too green. In the eyes of these old hands who had done countless deals, one sentence was enough for the other party to see through their flaws and true intentions.

Immediately, Lin Yang didn’t deny it and said directly, “Since you’ve made it so clear, I do indeed only wish to purchase information on one person.”

“No problem. May I ask which advanced mercenary’s information you wish to purchase? You only need to provide some characteristics, and we can select suitable candidates for you to slowly filter.” The other party said leisurely.

Still a two-in-one chapter. Recently, they’ve all been two-in-one. Unless there are special circumstances later, I won’t repeatedly emphasize it at the end of chapters to avoid affecting your reading experience.
