Dragon's Lair

“You call this a mercenary group?”

Lin Feng looked at Qin An, who had a smug expression, feeling quite speechless. A force of nearly 30,000 armed individuals could stage a military coup in some underdeveloped small countries.

“Why wouldn’t it count as a mercenary group, hmph hmph hmph.”

“Oh right, you should go out and meet these Seekers. You’re God Lin, your words will definitely be more effective than mine.”

“Uh… alright.”

Lin Feng nodded. These Seekers might become his subordinates in the future, so getting to know them was quite necessary.

Afterward, he followed Qin An outside the wooden house.

“Everyone, put down your work for a moment and come see who this is!”

As Qin An called out, the Seekers busy in the camp gradually gathered.

“Holy crap! God Lin?!”

“Lin Da Lao!!”

“Greetings, Chief!”

“Lin Da Lao, when are we going to fight the natives here?!”

“I told you, God Lin is definitely the Chief.”

................

Many Seekers called out to Lin Feng in a cacophony of voices. Lin Feng had now acquired a new title, Chief, in addition to Lin Da Lao and God Lin.

“Good heavens, you really did set up a mountain stronghold…”

“Uh, I didn’t want to, but I couldn’t stop them from wanting to.”

Qin An scratched his head.

However, these Seekers hadn't seen how outrageous the natives of this world were, so it was normal for them to have ideas of occupying a mountain and ruling a region.

They probably just thought this was an ancient society with backward technology.

Perhaps even Qin An hadn't encountered things like mages and giant dragon beasts on the permanent floors.

“What, aren’t you going to say a few words?”

Qin An nudged Lin Feng’s arm and said.

“What should I say, ahem.”

Lin Feng cleared his throat. Facing so many people, he really didn't know how to speak, but in the end, at everyone's request, he briefly spoke, focusing on the power system of this world and its magical creatures.

Under Lin Feng's narration, some people who had thoughts of ruling a region had their ideas extinguished.

With giant dragons and mages, who could afford to provoke them?

After dismissing all the Seekers, Lin Feng found that there weren't as many people here as Qin An had said.

At this point, Qin An also provided an explanation: most of the Seekers couldn't come because the Elevator was too far from here, and it would take a long time to travel.

The Seekers who could come here either had an Elevator nearby or had a vehicle and drove directly.

Lin Feng nodded upon hearing this. He also noticed many off-road vehicles and ATVs in the camp.

He even saw a rusty wheeled armored vehicle.

It just didn't have any weapons, probably salvaged from some apocalypse floor.

“Ah, if only all the Elevators could be gathered here.”

Qin An sighed and said.

“Alright, alright, if all the Elevators were gathered here, it would be chaotic.”

“That’s true.”

Qin An nodded in agreement.

Later, Lin Feng wandered around the camp for a bit and then left. The management here was left to Qin An; he wasn't that knowledgeable about it.

If these Seekers could eventually be loyal to the two of them, that would be ideal.

...................

“Beep, mission issued. Host, please gather the Key Feathers as soon as possible. Mission reward: advance one major realm, up to the peak of the Deity Transformation stage.”

Lin Feng, who was cultivating, froze suddenly upon hearing the system’s words.

“Oh?? Why is a mission suddenly issued at this time?”

Deity Transformation stage, wasn't that the realm after the Nascent Soul Stage?

Holy crap, this system really looked down on him, did it think he couldn't break through to the Nascent Soul Stage?

Lin Feng thought indignantly in his heart.

But he was going to collect the Key Feathers anyway, and now he had a beneficial mission, which was pretty good.

It seemed the system was also getting anxious, but he didn't know where to find Key Feathers; he could only rely on chance each time.

After reading the system's mission, Lin Feng continued to cultivate in the Villa.

At this time, the random floor also refreshed again, but it held no attraction for him, so he let it pass.

“Ah, why is cultivation so difficult?”

After the system finished speaking about the floor information, Lin Feng also exited the training ground and lay directly on the floor.

“Ow!”

“What’s wrong, Little Dragon?”

Seeing Little Dragon appear at the door, Lin Feng got up and asked.

Usually, Little Dragon would be playing with the other two at this time; suddenly coming to find him most likely meant something had happened.

Seeing Little Dragon bark at him and then turn to leave, Lin Feng quickly followed.

Something must have really happened.

Before long, Little Dragon led him to the bottom of a hill, quite far from the lakeside Villa. He didn't know how they had gotten there.

“Ow ow ow!”

Little Dragon barked a few times towards the top, and then he saw Huang Dou fly out of a cave.

“Squeak squeak squeak, Big Brother, come quickly! I found a cave, and there are good things inside!”

“Woof woof!”

Big Black, at the bottom of the hill, saw Lin Feng and affectionately came over, constantly rubbing against Lin Feng's pants.

“Haha, what good things? You’re all so excited.”

After rubbing the soft dog head, Lin Feng flew to Huang Dou’s side.

“Look, it’s all treasure.”

Huang Dou pointed to the cave located on the hill.

Inside, there was a large amount of soft hay and dry wood, and in the center, it was densely covered with empire gold coinss and shiny gems.

Seeing this, Lin Feng raised an eyebrow.

“Holy crap, this wouldn't be a giant dragon’s lair, would it??”

“Squeak squeak?”

Huang Dou tilted his head. A giant dragon?

He had been here for so long, why hadn't he encountered any giant dragons?

“There’s no giant dragon here. I’ve been around here several times. Don’t worry, don’t worry, quickly take all these things and let’s run away.”

Huang Dou said while controlling the flying device to fly onto the pile of gold coins.

“I bet this is eighty percent a giant dragon’s lair. Forget it, since the giant dragon isn’t here, it probably won’t know who took it if we take it.”

Lin Feng had just scanned them with his scanner. These colorful gems were not ordinary gems; they were all elemental gems.

Their value was quite high; it would be foolish not to take them.

Just as Lin Feng was about to act, an angry roar suddenly came from afar.

“Roar!!!”

“No way! Such a coincidence??”

Lin Feng turned his head and saw, indeed, a giant dragon flying towards them.
