The basement of the temple, Qin An?

The Giant Worm, blasted into two sections, was not dead; its head and tail still possessed normal vitality.

After hearing the warning from Big Black, Lin Feng quickly controlled his mecha to fly into the air, wanting to shake off the slime.

However, the slime clung to the mecha like a stubborn plaster, and no matter how fast Lin Feng flew, he couldn't shake it off.

Having no other choice, Lin Feng had to control the mecha to roll in the sand.

Soon, the slime adhering to the mecha was covered and absorbed by the sand.

At the same time, the glaring red warning on the screen also disappeared.

It was just that the mecha had gotten a new 'skin' and would need to find a place to be thoroughly cleaned.

Now, it was time to deal with this worm.

The worm, now in two halves, was rapidly healing its wounds.

Even the latter half of its body was growing head-like buds, and if left unchecked, a complete head might grow out in another ten minutes or so.

Even Lin Feng was shocked by the Giant Worm's regenerative ability.

However, no matter how strong its recovery ability, without powerful defensive capabilities and offensive skills, such a large body was just a living target.

Soon, under the ministrations of Lin Feng's Charging Pistol, the Giant Worm no longer had a single intact piece of flesh.

Hundreds of meters in every direction were covered in the strong acidic liquid left by the Giant Worm.

After confirming the Giant Worm's death, Lin Feng flew back to the temple built of sand and stone; the temple had completely collapsed due to the Giant Worm's destruction.

Upon entering the ruins of the temple, Lin Feng, who had initially thought the temple was only as large as its visible surface, suddenly discovered that there was a hidden world beneath the temple.

If the Giant Worm hadn't burrowed out from beneath the temple, Lin Feng might never have discovered this secret passage leading underground.

Walking through the passage.

Lin Feng arrived at a very dark place.

Big Black also applied to activate night mode, and the entire basement appeared very clearly before Lin Feng.

Torches for illumination were stuck into the walls all around the basement.

"This... isn't this the torch the Floor Merchant wanted to sell me before?"

Lin Feng curiously pulled a torch from the wall and examined it in his hand; it wasn't just similar to the torch Kola had wanted to sell him, it was practically identical.

Moreover, when Lin Feng lit it, no matter how he swung it, it couldn't be extinguished, which further confirmed that the torch Kola had sold him had come from this very place.

And at that time, he seemed to have sold one for a hundred gold coins.

Lin Feng's eyes immediately turned into the shape of gold coins.

After a quick count, there were actually over twenty such torches in this basement.

Holy cow! He'd struck it rich!

Two thousand gold coins directly in hand; no matter what, this floor was already a huge profit.

After his shock, Lin Feng noticed that the walls of this basement were covered with various animal patterns.

The patterns referred to here were not cute cartoon patterns, but rather murals that made one feel a chill down their spine just by looking at them.

All the creatures depicted were carnivorous animals, and only their heads were shown.

When Lin Feng reached out to touch them, he suddenly felt as if the patterns on the wall had come alive.

And were sucking the blood from his body.

"What the hell? Why do I feel this through the mecha?"

Just as Lin Feng was wondering, a shadow suddenly flashed past behind Lin Feng.

Feeling the anomaly from behind, Lin Feng sharply turned his head to look.

"Hello, do you want to trade?"

A Floor Merchant was standing behind Lin Feng, no one knew when he had appeared.

"Damn, you Floor Merchants are all so elusive, aren't you?"

Lin Feng's vigilance gradually relaxed, and then he walked over, wanting to trade with the Floor Merchant.

"What do you have here?"

"Oh, wait a moment!"

The Floor Merchant was startled for a moment, then quickly took out various items from his backpack.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng's hand quietly rested on his Charging Pistol.

Something was wrong; the Floor Merchants he had encountered before never needed him to actively ask what items they were selling.

Every one of them was very enthusiastic in introducing their goods.

But the Floor Merchant in front of him seemed very passive about this matter.

Lin Feng, realizing something was amiss, did not expose him immediately but continued to observe.

After all, he wasn't 100% sure; if he made a mistake, he would be the one in trouble.

After all, he had cultivated the Floor Merchant's favorability for so long.

If he accidentally killed the Floor Merchant, all his previous efforts would be in vain.

Soon, the Floor Merchant had laid out all his goods.

"This is a Strength Potion, this is a pill to improve physique attributes, this is a Repair Potion, this is an Invisibility Cloak, this is an All-Purpose Pill; these items are 10 gold coins in total."

Upon hearing the price, Lin Feng frowned, not because it was too expensive, but because these items were too cheap.

These potions or pills were not just one bottle or one pill.

There were four bottles of Strength Potion alone.

So, adding them up, it was impossible for them to cost only ten gold coins.

Even with his discount aura, it couldn't be done; this was very inconsistent with the Floor Merchant's persona as a black market dealer. Now Lin Feng had a way to test whether the Floor Merchant in front of him was real or fake.

"Give me a discount, I'll take them all for five gold coins."

"Alright!"

Seeing the Floor Merchant agree without hesitation, Lin Feng became even more certain that the Floor Merchant in front of him was fake.

So, he raised his Charging Pistol without hesitation.

He charged it and fired.

Boom!

The energy bullet passed through the Floor Merchant's body, and the Floor Merchant, along with all the items he had just sold, turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared.

"It was fake after all..."

It's just, why was he experiencing hallucinations?

Just as Lin Feng was wondering, Qin An's voice suddenly appeared beside Lin Feng.

"Holy crap, Lin Feng, what are you doing here?"

"Qin An? Why are you here?"

Facing the sudden appearance of "Qin An," Lin Feng did not rashly approach.

Perhaps the Qin An in front of him was also fake.

"Don't come closer yet, I just encountered some things. You answer a few questions first to prove your identity."

"No way, Lin Feng, with our relationship, do we really need to do this? Forget it, forget it, ask away, just wait and see how I deal with you later."

Qin An clenched his fists, a threatening look on his face.

Seeing Qin An like this, Lin Feng's doubts actually lessened somewhat.

"When is your birthday?"

"August ninth."

"What's your bank card password?"

"112138."

"Where were you yesterday?"

"On Blue Star, I just got back, did you forget? Didn't I tell you? Are you done testing?"

Qin An looked at Lin Feng with a helpless expression.

"Last question, call me Dad."

"Dad."
