61: You have to queue up to pick up Li Feng's shoes
What did he see?
The overwhelming number of Beedrills was understandable, as they were only Tier 1 Troops.
But what about the thousands of Tier 6 Flying Mantises?
And those that were frantically unleashing firepower on the BOSS, if he remembered correctly, they were Tier 6 Explosive Flame Earthworms and Tier 4 Fire Centipedes.
The former was fine, there were only 100 of them.
But there were also thousands of the latter.
There were also hundreds of Tier 4 Buzzwoles, whose massive size was truly eye-catching.
And... as he continued to look, Fang Song couldn't help but gulp.
Is this the terror of a Hegemon?
Just then, 200 Flying Mantises flew out from the group.
They no longer participated in the BOSS siege but instead confronted Fang Song.
"Friend, I mean no harm."
Fang Song, sitting on the shoulder of an Earth Tyrant Bear, said loudly.
"My name is Fang Song, and we are from the same competition zone."
To get closer to Li Feng, Fang Song quickly revealed his identity.
Li Feng remained silent.
He wasn't familiar with Fang Song; just because the latter said he meant no harm, did it mean he meant no harm?
He wasn't some naive, innocent person who hadn't seen the world.
Seeing that Li Feng was unwilling to trust him, Fang Song gritted his teeth and had all his Troops retreat.
Only he himself remained on the spot.
"Now, you can believe me, right?"
Fang Song held up his hands, indicating that he wasn't holding any items.
"If you're looking to peacefully negotiate the ownership of the BOSS with me, then you can give up. I won't give it to you."
Finally, Li Feng spoke.
Fang Song shook his head repeatedly.
He indicated that while the resources in the hidden dungeon were quite plentiful, he didn't care much for them.
He also subtly hinted that he came from a top-tier Lord family.
Of course, this wasn't to threaten Li Feng.
Rather, it was to tell Li Feng that his family had plenty of money and didn't care about this small amount.
Li Feng was a little speechless listening to him.
"Since you don't care about the resources in the hidden dungeon, then leave now. I won't see you off."
Li Feng waved his hand, interrupting Fang Song's subtle boasting.
"Hehe, a hidden dungeon is nothing, of course. I specifically came here for you."
After speaking, he feigned profundity, looking deeply at Li Feng.
Li Feng also looked at him, remaining silent for a long time.
After a while, Li Feng gave in, waving his hands repeatedly, "I'm sorry, brother, I'm really not into that. You've got the wrong person."
Fang Song was stunned at first.
But he quickly understood the hidden meaning in Li Feng's words, and immediately, a black line appeared on his forehead.
"Let's be direct. I mainly want to add you as a friend. Perhaps we can collaborate in various ways in the future."
"If I'm not mistaken, you've awakened an SS-level or higher talent and are a legendary Hegemon. If I can build a good relationship with a Hegemon like you, I will benefit immensely in the future."
Fang Song was, after all, a young man, without the many complexities of adults.
He directly stated his purpose in front of Li Feng.
"A Hegemon?"
Li Feng murmured.
It was mentioned in some biographies.
Whenever such a person appeared in the world, it would inevitably cause a stir nationwide and even globally.
Once they grew, they would be enough to become the foundation of a nation!
And there were statistics.
More than seventy percent of the current Godly Lords were once Hegemons.
"I once yearned for it, I once fantasized about it, but I never thought that one day I would also step into this realm."
Li Feng was filled with emotion.
If Fang Song hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have realized it.
He had also entered the ranks of these legendary figures.
He was also a Hegemon!
This was the so-called: those involved are confused, while bystanders see clearly.
"But, by adding you as a friend, what can you bring me?"
Li Feng looked down at Fang Song, his gaze full of scrutiny.
Now that he understood his own position, he would be even more reluctant to easily add Fang Song as a friend.
From today onwards, his friend slots were very precious.
"Of course there are benefits. I am the current heir of the Yulin Fang Family. If you add me as a friend, I can share resources, intelligence, and coordinates of secret realms and dungeons with you. These are all things that ordinary Lords can only dream of."
When mentioning the Yulin Fang Family, Fang Song couldn't help but puff out his chest.
As a family heir, he had been instilled with family honor since childhood, proud to be a member of the family.
This was not feigned, but from the heart.
Listening to Fang Song's words, Li Feng lowered his gaze in thought.
Indeed, as Fang Song said, the things he could provide were all things that ordinary Lords could only dream of.
After all, the ancestor of the Yulin Fang Family was also a Hegemon.
Their family even had several top-tier Lords.
The precious resources and intelligence they possessed were truly too many.
With the silent support of the Yulin Fang Family, Li Feng's growth speed would greatly increase.
In particular, he thought of the Hekou He Family.
To avenge his uncle, he had expelled the current heir of that family from the Endless Continent.
This was equivalent to a direct slap in the face, making them a laughingstock among families of the same caliber.
He knew without thinking that they would definitely retaliate fiercely afterwards.
Li Feng was confident that once he became powerful, he would simply sweep aside any Hekou He Family that displeased him.
But there was a saying among the people: you never know whether tomorrow or an accident will come first.
What if the other party suddenly found his territory before he even had a chance to develop?
Li Feng would not be so arrogant as to think that he, at his current stage, could contend with a top-tier Lord family.
If he could rely on the Fang Family to accelerate his path to power, this risk would be greatly reduced.
"How is it? Are the conditions I offered generous enough?"
At this moment, seeing Li Feng's prolonged silence, Fang Song couldn't help but speak.
"They are indeed very generous, but even without your Fang Family's resources and intelligence, I am destined to rise and dominate the world in the future. The conditions you mentioned are not enough."
Li Feng shook his head.
In his heart, the conditions Fang Song offered had already moved him.
But they were all verbal promises, illusory, and without any practical meaning.
Most importantly, Li Feng happened to have an item he very much desired.
Upon hearing this, Fang Song couldn't help but frown deeply.
In the past, whenever anyone learned of his identity and background,
They wouldn't even need him to propose conditions; they would eagerly fawn over him, wanting to become his friend.
However, this time, his background was ineffective with Li Feng.
It had no effect whatsoever.
After a long silence, Fang Song asked, unwilling to give up, "Then what do you need for me to add you as a friend?"
He was unwilling to give up.
This was a Hegemon, someone who would at least reach the level of his own ancestor in the future.
If he waited until Li Feng grew up,
People like him would have to queue up just to carry Li Feng's shoes.
If he didn't build a good relationship now, it would be unthinkable in the future.
"I need a Lord Source. If you can sell it to me, then I will recognize your friendship."
Li Feng slowly spoke, stating his demand.
Not for himself, but for his uncle, Li Wuchang...
