Master of the End Times

Chapter 388: D4-Tier

After undergoing the recent battle and the absorption of the plant core, Qin Feng’s power had finally leaped onto the next level.

He had now reached D4-tier emperor-level physicality and consciousness.

Qin Feng’s physical strength evolved yet again in less than half-a-month since the last time he fought Yan Shuo.

He had now stayed in Shadong Town for three months. A lot had changed during this period.

Specifically, Shadong Town was no longer the shaky deserted town at the frontline.

Ever since Qin Feng brought back the tear flowers, Shadong Town had not experienced beast assaults for a very long time.

On the map, the safety score of Shadong Town had increased substantially due to the decrease in the battle count.

D-tier aptitude users from Shadong Town were no longer tasked to stay put and defend the town. Slowly, they began to take the initiative and went out to hunt.

Eventually, the number of beasts around the North Sea Desert also went down drastically.

Aptitude users had no idea what caused the change but they knew that Qin Feng must be the one behind all these.

“When I first arrived, I killed the Sand Lizardfolk Queen. She possessed the spatial ability and had a Spatial Whip. Though it’s a small population, these Lizardfolk often summon powerful beasts!”

“After that, I killed another nine beast kings scattered around the North Sea Desert!”

“The resurgence of Shadong Town also owes a lot to the tear flowers’ effect.”

“Till this moment, our D-tier users are still busy hunting out there. The overall danger level of the North Sea Desert has come down to a desirable level, thus the increase in safety score. Of course, it’s our best interest that the outsiders are not informed about this.”

Qin Feng narrated while eyeing the marks on the virtual map. The drones scouted the desert and feedback live updates to the map, showing that the monster numbers and activity zone had shrunk sharply thanks to the continuous efforts from the D-tier aptitude users.

“Mayor, this is insane. You really plan to turn the North Sea Desert into your plantation territory?”

Xue Xingfu was Qin Feng’s confidant. Qin Feng hid nothing from his right-hand man as he needed Xue Xingfu to help accomplish his vision.

Xue Xingfu was actually amazed after he listened to Qin Feng’s seemingly insane plan. Only time would tell whether he was following a genius or a lunatic.

“By the way, Han Nuan relayed a message to me regarding the alliance between the ancient warrior families.”

Qin Feng sneered.

‘Now only they care to make peace and talk about the alliance? Isn’t it a little too late?’

“Tell them I demand 50% share. Take it or leave it.”

Qin Feng could not care less about the money. All he wanted was to irritate those scums. He had seen through their real thoughts. Especially during his fight with Yan Shuo. Qin Feng knew well that both the Hou and Tieh families wished to see him dead in that battle.

They blew their chance then and now Qin Feng of course had the right to mark up the demand.

“Are you sure you want to make that kind of offer? Don’t forget, these families have C-tier chiefs backing them.”

Qin Feng smirked. “Then have their chiefs come after me. I can’t wait to see whether they are going to declare war against us for some petty business.”

Naturally, they would not.

Subsequent negotiations went smoothly, which was beyond Xue Xingfu’s imagination. He found it hard to believe when the other side agreed to meet Qin Feng’s exorbitant request with little objection.

Xue Xingfu had not gone to Shadong Town, thus he had no idea how profound Qin Feng’s influence was around this region.

***

May was no different than a drought season in past years for Shadong Town. But this year, this town was covered in green for the first time.

Such scenery made Shadong Town an oasis in the middle of the vast desert.

These changes took place in less than a month, which made the transformation even more incredible.

The overturn of fate had startled Gao Yukang. He was currently video calling with Qin Feng through the communicator.

“Little brat, so this is your plan all along. Speaking of which, where did you find such a unique plant? This thing probably could help us turn more dangerous territories into safe colonies!” Gao Yukang’s purpose of calling Qin Feng was to ask about the tear flowers.

“Forgive me as I needed to keep this a secret. If anyone needs them, I am more than willing to sell to them. But it would not come cheap, and only will be available after I have successfully bred more.” Qin Feng said.

In the western hemisphere, the tear flower was not being promoted because the population there was sparse. There was not a need for more colonies so the residents there have never thought about expanding.

However, things were completely different in the eastern hemisphere, where Qin Feng came from. The population here had long reached saturation.

“I have no interest in making links for you. Don’t try to get me involved in your goddamn business.”

“My bad, Governor Gao.”

Gao Yukang just laughed it off as he was not the type that would get offended by such matters.

“The main purpose I made this call is to ask whether you are interested in coming to the Longchuan battlefield. Seeing that Shadong Town’s danger level has gone down considerably, I could foresee that North Sea Desert would soon turn into a safe colony. At that time, it will be a waste of your talent to stay in Shadong Town.”

Qin Feng’s eyes flickered with excitement.

Longchuan battlefield?

That was exactly where Qin Feng wanted to go next.

Worried that Qin Feng might have his concerns, Gao Yukang reassured him, “Of course, you will still be the de facto general of Shadong Town. I can even have Gao Qin step down and give you his mayor seat. There’s nothing left there for Gao Qin to scoop anyway if the North Sea is no longer a warzone.”

Plainly speaking, Gao Qin would have plenty of opportunities as long as Gao Yukang was still alive and backing him.

“There’s no need for that.” Qin Feng rejected the offer. He recalled his past life memory, then said, “Longchuan sounds great. It’s one of the battlefields I wish to attempt one day.”

“Haha! Great! I will wait for your good news!”

Gao Yukang was very powerful but he rose through the ranks too quickly. That left him with little acquaintances in the troop and he definitely needed help from someone like Qin Feng.

Qin Feng did not plan to work under Gao Yukang.

In his memory, there was a calamity that befell Longchuan around this time.

The incidence wiped out eighteen small colonies and two big cities around Longchuan. The end result was devastating, even to this apocalyptic world.

In the end, the threat was finally neutralized by A-tier aptitude users.

Even Gao Yukang was killed in that battle.

As a governor, the news on his passing reached every corner of the North Sea and it eventually reached Qin Feng’s ears.

To others, this might be a huge risk. But Qin Feng had always turned the greatest risks into the best opportunities.

***

The next day, ninety three D-tier aptitude users gathered inside the conference hall, Shadong Town’s highest building.

Qin Feng sat in the front with Bai Li and others by his side.

All the users looked at Qin Feng with great admiration.

At the same time, they knew the meeting was called for a specific purpose and waited anxiously.

“The safety level of Shadong Town is increasing as we speak. Defending and hunting are two entirely different things.”

“Maybe in another half-year time, the North Sea Desert is going to change completely too!”
