Along the way, the Wolf Gang Leader was quite cunning. Lin Feng followed behind, feeling both frustrated and impressed. This guy had visited five markets and switched between four modes of transportation, almost taking a plane, and even managed to disguise himself. It was only natural to admire such a cautious and clever person.
Despite not wanting to admit it, Lin Feng had to acknowledge that this guy's ability to evade capture was expert-level, rivaling Lin Feng's own skills from his mercenary days.
The Wolf Gang's strategist truly lived up to his reputation.
However, today he was destined to be unlucky because the one tracking him was no ordinary person, but an alien soul with powerful Mental Power.
Under Tesla's formidable Mental Power, his movements were completely exposed.
Finally, the Wolf Gang Leader made a loop and ended up in a courtyard near the original "Paradise on Earth."
Lin Feng naturally followed him there.
Standing in front of this rather ordinary courtyard, Lin Feng felt a mix of amusement and frustration. After all that traveling by car and boat, he had returned to where he started. Wasn't that just a waste of effort? He thought he might as well have waited for him at the original spot.
But that was just a thought. Although Lin Feng could guess that the Wolf Gang's headquarters was not far from "Paradise on Earth," it was merely speculation without solid evidence, lacking credibility. Even Lin Feng had to grit his teeth and follow him around in circles.
After all, while Tesla's Mental Power was strong, its effective range was only a few kilometers. If he guessed wrong, wouldn't everything have to start over? Lin Feng didn't dare take that risk.
"Feng Shao, I really admire you. We tracked him, but we were quite a distance behind. How did you manage not to lose him?" Li Zhong had been holding this question in for a long time, and now that they had reached their destination, he finally let it out.
"Hehe... well, it's thanks to this," Lin Feng said, pointing to his head in a showy manner.
In reality, Lin Feng wasn't relying on his brain but on the magic ring. He told Li Zhong this to avoid exposing the existence of the magic ring or Tesla. These were Lin Feng's true secrets; even Dong Jie didn't know about them, let alone Li Zhong.
This wasn't about trust; it was about avoiding unnecessary complications if they knew these things.
At least if they knew the secret, they would also know not to speak of it, leading them to be wary every day about whether someone was trying to pry information from them. They couldn't even have peaceful dreams for fear of being overheard while sleep-talking. Such a life would be exhausting.
Lin Feng bore this burden alone; he didn't want others to suffer alongside him. Since he had been favored by fate with the magic ring and rebirth, he considered this little burden as his duty. With rights come responsibilities; there’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
Of course, compared to the advantages brought by the magic ring and returning to the past through rebirth, this little exhaustion was hardly worth mentioning. So all things considered, Lin Feng still came out ahead—and by a significant margin.
Not wanting to think about it, Lin Feng took Li Zhong directly inside.
Of course, this time it wasn't a visit; they were there to cause trouble. So Lin Feng and Li Zhong decisively kicked open a wooden door, or rather, they kicked it apart.
This wooden door was quite heavy, made up of two panels. But Lin Feng was naturally unafraid, and with Lin Feng's first kick, Li Zhong easily kicked open the other panel.
Just as they kicked the door open, a few sounds came through, and Lin Feng sensed a crisis with his mental awareness.
Something was shooting toward them.
Pulling Li Zhong behind him, Lin Feng waved his hand, and everything returned to calm.
At that moment, Lin Feng's magic ring contained several Silver Needles. These Silver Needles weren't originally in the magic ring; they were the ones that had just been shot at them. They had simply been collected by the ring.
After collecting the Silver Needles, Lin Feng felt a bit uneasy. If he hadn't had the magic ring, even with his powerful Mental Power to sense the incoming Silver Needles in advance, he wouldn't have been able to block them all. Otherwise, he would have been shot full of holes.
Lin Feng's unease stemmed from an unexpected situation; it wasn't fear but rather a habitual response to something that had happened.
Li Zhong, on the other hand, felt some fear. If Lin Feng hadn't pulled him back just now, he believed he would have already become a victim of those needles; the trap was too treacherous.
After the fear subsided, admiration grew in Li Zhong's gaze toward Lin Feng. He understood why Lin Feng had effortlessly caught his flying knife last time.
However, no matter how much he understood, he couldn't guess that all of this was thanks to a mysterious magic ring.
With a thought, Lin Feng held one of the Silver Needles that had just been shot at them and showed it to Li Zhong, asking, "Can you tell if this Silver Needle is poisoned?"
Li Zhong carefully took it, held it up to the sunlight, and named a very strange poison that Lin Feng didn't recognize; it must be some kind of poison from the underworld.
Seeing that Lin Feng didn't understand, Li Zhong explained further: "It's a poison that can seal one's throat upon contact with blood; just one needle can definitely kill an adult."
Indeed, these underworld people should not be underestimated.
When Lin Feng was a mercenary, he had some knowledge about poisons as well. However, he couldn't tell whether this Silver Needle was poisoned or not; he didn't expect it to actually be poisonous—highly toxic at that. Hence his feelings of concern.
Having received an answer, Lin Feng kept Li Zhong protected behind him and continued forward.
At this moment, in a room deep within the courtyard, a group of people was watching the surveillance screen. Lin Feng blocked the movements of Silver Needle, making it difficult for everyone to see clearly. However, the result was visible on the screen: both individuals were unharmed, indicating that they had successfully defended against a round of attacks from Silver Needle.
"Lao Jiang, what do you think?" asked a middle-aged man with a beard to the person next to him. The one called Lao Jiang was none other than the leader of the Wolf Gang, who had been tracked by Lin Feng.
As for the bearded middle-aged man, if Li Zhong were present, he would certainly recognize him as the leader of the Wolf Gang—Wolf King.
"I can't see through it!" Lao Jiang pondered for a moment before saying with some frustration.
Upon hearing Lao Jiang's words, Wolf King shook his head and fell silent. However, Lao Jiang understood that at this moment, Wolf King must be feeling a surge of emotions.
This was the first time since the establishment of the Wolf Gang that Lao Jiang had used "can't see through" to describe someone. And that someone was a young man in his twenties.
The people in the room were tense, as if they were facing an impending disaster for the Wolf Gang.
Meanwhile, Lin Feng paid no attention to the various thoughts of those in the room and continued forward with Li Zhong. If their opponent relied solely on these few Silver Needles, Lin Feng was confident he could enter without any harm.
Indeed, luck seemed to be on their side; Lin Feng and Li Zhong faced several rounds of Silver Needles along the way and successfully made their way deeper into the courtyard.
