28: Chapter 28 Trap
True God Lin Cheng didn't know how this guy managed to escape from the Hunters.
The Hunters of the Main World mostly operated in gangs; weak deities couldn't even squeeze into their teams, and in their eyes, a Vampire Demigod was nothing more than an ant.
"Hmm, I estimate that this Vampire was thrown into a spatial channel by a powerful entity on its own side while fleeing. I noticed it still bore wounds caused by the power of space..."
True God Lin Cheng continued to talk about how he had finished off this Vampire, but Lin Ye remained curious about the Vampire's origins.
It seemed this Vampire wasn't a lone wolf, but its teammates couldn't possibly break into the Main World to avenge it against his father...
"And then? So this Vampire fell into this world through a spatial channel?"
Lin Ye quickly interrupted his father's boasting about his "glorious achievements" to steer the conversation back to this world.
"Yes, that's right. This Small World is quite remote, with no powerful worlds nearby. It was just bad luck that a Vampire stumbled upon it. Outer Realm Gods are not friendly to such Small Worlds..."
Lin Ye thought about it, and it made sense. An Outer Realm God who was severely injured suddenly arriving in a weak world—how was that any different from a piece of meat suddenly appearing in front of a hungry wolf?
Hearing True God Lin Cheng say this, Lin Ye didn't wait for his father to continue and asked,
"Since this world is so barren and small, what could be worth a Vampire's attention? Wouldn't it be better to just hunker down in a Small World and heal?"
However, after saying this, Lin Ye realized something.
No, he seemed to have been led astray by his own thinking.
A barren world could only be described as having barren resources, but the number of living beings he had observed was anything but small.
Thinking of this, Lin Ye's view of the Vampire's ruthlessness deepened.
Hearing Lin Ye interrupt him, True God Lin Cheng didn't get angry.
He quietly listened to his son's "insight," but seeing Lin Ye suddenly fall silent after speaking, True God Lin Cheng continued,
"Realized it now?"
"Don't think of Outer Realm Gods as so glorious and magnificent. Even in our Main World, there are many Children of the Divine Domain who do whatever they want in Outer Realm worlds..."
"This world is only about 800,000 square kilometers in size, yet it has over 400 million living beings residing within it."
True God Lin Cheng turned his head to look at Lin Ye.
"From the soul-searching images, I saw that when this Vampire first entered this world, it swallowed nearly 200 million living beings in one gulp..."
"And then it went to sleep to heal right here in the city beneath our feet."
True God Lin Cheng didn't say much about the Vampire's actions.
Although True God Lin Cheng didn't want his son to grow up to be a deity who would use unscrupulous means to increase his strength, if it were a desperate situation where his son had become a Vampire, True God Lin Cheng would support his son in doing the same. Everything was for the sake of survival; there was nothing to blame.
Some Children of the Divine Domain specifically kept such batches of living beings in their own Divine Domains as spares...
Lin Ye felt his scalp tingle upon hearing his father's words.
Swallowing over 200 million living beings in one gulp—that was truly ruthless...
It was fortunate he wasn't born in such a world; he feared that even with a Golden Finger, he wouldn't have enough time to develop.
"Remember, the Outer Realm universe is inherently a massive trial ground, and the relationship between both sides is only that of killer and killed."
"If he doesn't kill you, it's only because he can't beat you yet..."
"Even a Child of the Divine Domain who is exploring with you might suddenly betray you and stab you in the back!"
Speaking of this, True God Lin Cheng suddenly asked mysteriously,
"Guess how I discovered this plane?"
Lin Ye thought for a moment after hearing this.
This unlucky Vampire was hiding in a Small World so far from the Main World that it could be found—this didn't seem like a place his father could find.
He probed his father, "Emmm, did Grandma tell you?"
"You little brat, talking nonsense..."
Hearing his son's answer, True God Lin Cheng immediately jumped up and reached out to pat Lin Ye's head.
"Alright, alright, you continue showing off—no, you continue speaking..."
Seeing his father's hand reaching out again, Lin Ye quickly laughed and corrected himself.
True God Lin Cheng cleared his throat.
"I received this news from an organization in the Main World."
"The members of this organization are all Hunters with a certain level of strength in the Main World."
"Tsk tsk, at the time, I was curious how news of a severely injured demigod reached my ears."
Lin Ye looked at his father, who had suddenly paused, and felt a bit frantic—hurry up and continue speaking!
Seeing Lin Ye's expression, True God Lin Cheng blushed slightly.
"Although I guessed it was a trap, the resources of a demigod were still very attractive, so I notified your grandma when I left the Main World..."
True God Lin Cheng felt a bit embarrassed saying this, feeling like he was living off his wife, and even more so saying it in front of his son.
"So, it really was a trap? Are you okay?"
Hearing his father say this, Lin Ye became nervous; he didn't want to become a child without a father again!
"Go, go, go! What kind of talk is that? Am I not standing right here, perfectly fine..."
True God Lin Cheng waved his hand, but he continued with some lingering fear in his heart,
"As soon as I left the Main World, I was surrounded by three Level 4 weak-divinity Hunters..."
"Fortunately, I had notified your grandma in advance, otherwise, you really wouldn't be seeing your father here."
