38: Hunting God Training

Ran Feng, who had been following Luo Chen and hadn't left, saw the abundant supplies inside Luo Chen's Train and asked with anticipation in his eyes, "Boss, can I join you too?"

"No. This Train temporarily does not accept males."

Ran Feng looked a bit disappointed upon hearing this.

"I'll give you those two women, do you want them?" Luo Chen pointed to the two Japanese actresses standing in the distance.

These two were quite ordinary looking; keeping them on the Train was useless, and they would still need to eat, drink, and use the restroom. It would be better to give them to Ran Feng, which could be considered a way for them to survive.

Hmm! He was quite kind-hearted.

Ever since he had an exotic beauty like Xue Shang, other ordinary women no longer caught his eye.

"Really?"

Ran Feng looked at the two 'life mentors' with great joy. From now on, he wouldn't have to teach himself; he would have mentors too.

At this moment, a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old outside the window tapped on the car window.

"Is something the matter, little friend?" Luo Chen asked through the window.

"Big Brother, can I also merge with your Train? I can predict and know the information for the next stop," the boy said in a childish voice.

"Do you want him?" Luo Chen looked at Ran Feng.

"Boss, you don't want him?" Ran Feng asked curiously.

"My Train already has two. If you want him, I can let you have him," Luo Chen said indifferently.

"Thank you, Boss. Thank you, Boss." Ran Feng quickly bowed in gratitude.

"Little friend, my Train is full for now. You can go with this Big Brother," Luo Chen casually made up an excuse.

"Big Brother, is that okay?" The boy looked at Ran Feng.

Ran Feng nodded and led the boy back to his Train. Soon, a red and white Train merged with Ran Feng's Train.

"Boss. Here, take this stone. I got it from opening a treasure chest, but I don't know what it is, and it's useless for me to keep it."

After merging the Train, Ran Feng led the little boy back outside Luo Chen's car.

Xue Shang looked at the stone in Ran Feng's hand, her eyes widened with joy. She quickly and stealthily pinched Luo Chen, signaling him to accept it.

Although Luo Chen didn't know why, since Xue Shang had specifically reminded him, he didn't refuse.

He casually took the stone, "Thanks. Although I don't know what it is, since it came from a treasure chest, it must be good, so I'll take it."

A hint of regret flashed in Ran Feng's eyes. Since even this Boss didn't know, it probably wasn't anything important.

Thinking this, he felt relieved internally and said with a relaxed expression, "Thank you for your help, Boss. See you next time."

The two added each other as friends, then said goodbye and left... After Ran Feng left, Luo Chen held the stone and examined it from all angles, but couldn't make heads or tails of it. He could only ask Xue Shang, "What is this thing?"

Xue Shang snatched the stone and explained, "This is a low-grade energy crystal. It's the material needed to activate that token you got last time."

"You mean the Hunting God Token?" Luo Chen recalled the token Abu had given him.

"This low-grade energy crystal can allow that token to activate a 1-hour trial once."

"This is an energy crystal?"

Luo Chen looked at the constantly glowing stone in Xue Shang's hand, his eyes filled with surprise.

He suddenly reached out his left hand, grabbing for the stone in Xue Shang's hand.

However, Xue Shang slightly shifted her body, easily dodging him.

"Give it to me, what use do you have for this thing?" Luo Chen extended his hand, asking for it in an annoyed tone.

"Here you go. It's just one piece, it's not much use to me either." Xue Shang juggled it between her left and right hands, then gave it to Luo Chen.

She did this purely to tease Luo Chen, who had been so smug just now.

"How do I use this?" Luo Chen carefully held the energy crystal, looking at Xue Shang.

"Don't worry, this thing won't break if you drop it." Xue Shang looked at Luo Chen's cautious demeanor and let out a soft laugh, explaining, "Just put the token and the energy crystal together, then mentally say 'start' in your mind, and that's it."

Clearly, she was very familiar with this process.

"That simple?"

Luo Chen was a bit surprised. He had originally thought it would involve a rather troublesome process, but he didn't expect just putting them together would work.

If that was the case, no one would even need to teach him; he might even figure out how to use it himself. Of course, the prerequisite was having both the token and the energy crystal.

He took out the token from the cockpit and placed it together with the energy crystal.

As soon as the two touched, they began to tremble slightly. As the trembling intensified, they actually flew up without any external force.

The token floated above the energy crystal, and streams of colorful energy continuously flowed from the energy crystal into the token. As the energy continued to pour in, the token also began to emit a colorful glow.

Suddenly, a dazzling red light enveloped Luo Chen.

In the blink of an eye, he vanished from his original spot. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in front of a lake.

Before him appeared a monster with a plump black body, slick and greasy skin, a huge mouth with tusks, a black whisker hanging from each side of its mouth, and four long whiskers dangling from its chin.

"Haha! Hello! Welcome to Hunting God Hart's domain."

Seeing the appearance of an outsider, the Catfish spirit laughed enthusiastically.

"Hello!"

As a newcomer, Luo Chen responded with equal enthusiasm.

Looking at the Catfish spirit in front of him, he secretly wondered if this thing was Hunting God Hart; he looked different from the image on the token.

Could this be the difference between an online picture and a real photo?

"Hey~, it's you, kid." The Catfish spirit looked at Luo Chen's face, as if recalling something, and suddenly said in surprise.

"Senior Hunting God knows me?" Luo Chen asked somewhat curiously.

He inwardly rejoiced, wondering when his connections had become so extensive.

"Hunting God? I am not Lord Hunting God." The Catfish spirit quickly shook his head in denial. "Kid, don't you remember me? Last time you even kicked me several times; this demon remembers it clearly."

"We should know each other?" Luo Chen racked his brains but couldn't recall knowing such a non-human entity.

"How about this?"

As the Catfish spirit finished speaking, a giant Catfish over three meters long appeared in front of Luo Chen.

"Is... is that you?" Luo Chen was startled, retreating several steps frantically, his eyes wide in disbelief as he spoke.

After speaking, he quickly pulled out his pistol and took a defensive stance.

"Don't worry! There are rules, I won't hurt you." The Catfish transformed back into a Catfish spirit and appeared before Luo Chen again. "If I wanted to hurt you, I would have killed you in the water last time."

"Speaking of which, I should thank you! If it weren't for you, I would have had to stay there guarding the treasure chest."

"The water on your Blue Star is too dirty. If I stayed there any longer, I felt like my whole fish body would start to stink."

The Catfish spirit seemed to recall the smell of Blue Star's water and couldn't help but feel disgusted, spitting twice on the ground.

"You're too kind! You're too kind."

Luo Chen relaxed. He could only offer an awkward smile in response to the Catfish spirit's words.

"Without further ado, let's begin training now. The task for this training is to enhance your body's flexibility and reaction capabilities. You only have one hour here, so seize the opportunity, work hard, and don't slack off."

The Catfish spirit straightened his expression, then picked up a small bucket of colorful liquid from nearby and said:

"This is diluted energy crystal liquid. It can activate and modify the genes within your body, helping you awaken. Drink it first."

Luo Chen took the bucket, glanced at the Catfish spirit, and seeing him nod, he closed his eyes and brought the bucket to his mouth, taking a small sip. It was smooth and sticky, with a somewhat strange taste.

The liquid flowed down his throat and into his stomach, feeling like it was being scorched by lava all the way, yet there was no pain whatsoever.

It should be fine, he thought. He gritted his teeth and poured all the diluted energy crystal liquid into his mouth.
