The newcomer was weeping bitterly, as if he had just found the underground organization. This person was Zhang Twenty-Eight! After being taken in by Northern Lin Kong, he had gradually improved his living standards and social status. Fang Lin Kong did not hide this much; he knew that this rat spirit was one of Fang Lin Kong's subordinates, and the Chifeng Army had also been selling some favors to Zhang Twenty-Eight, whether intentionally or not. As for the citywide surveillance network established by Fang Lin Kong, it had also become an important source of intelligence for the Chifeng Army in his absence.
Despite this, Zhang Twenty-Eight's strength was simply too weak. He often found himself being spied on by some monsters who threatened to teach him a lesson. If it weren't for the two magical artifacts that Fang Lin Kong had given him, which indeed came in handy, Zhang Twenty-Eight would have suffered far more losses.
Fang Lin Kong watched as Zhang Twenty-Eight reported recent activities with tears and a heart full of sorrow, resembling a child who had just found his parents. He couldn't help but chuckle and casually asked a few questions before leading Zhang Twenty-Eight to a nearby hideout. This hideout was quite messy, filled with burned CDs everywhere. Fang Lin Kong asked in astonishment, "You haven't found a proper job and resorted to piracy instead? Look at this scale; it's quite impressive."
Zhang Twenty-Eight's eyes lit up as he explained, "This is where I store my data. The burned CDs record special events happening in the city." Fang Lin Kong casually picked one up and inserted it into a computer in the hideout. After a glance, he was stunned. On the screen were two naked flesh worms engaging in explicit activities.
Zhang Twenty-Eight awkwardly smiled and said, "This is a tracking record. The man on top is a monster from elsewhere who stayed in the city for only a month but killed six people in succession. I have twenty-four-hour surveillance footage of him, including the moments when he committed murder. This is him at Sea Dragon Bathhouse with a lady named Alu."
Fang Lin Kong switched to another CD, which showed dozens of monsters engaged in a bloody brawl. After discerning the faces, he found none familiar. Zhang Twenty-Eight added from the side, "These monsters belong to two small gangs in the city that operate in construction—essentially those kinds of thuggish companies. They often fight among themselves over business, each one more ruthless than the last."
Fang Lin Kong shook his head repeatedly; these monsters were not much stronger than ordinary people and seemed to lack any mastery of spells. Even if they possessed some abilities, they were mostly innate and their fighting style was very primitive. Thinking about how the room was filled with such content, Fang Lin Kong lost interest in viewing further and said to Zhang Twenty-Eight, "I've been gone for so long, yet you haven't made any progress. How come your demon power is just over two hundred? How do you usually train? You're so useless!"
Zhang Twenty-Eight's face flushed with shame as he stammered, "I come from a poor background; my cultivation has always been slow. Plus, without a mentor to guide me, it’s natural that I would take longer." In truth, there were many things left unsaid; most monsters were not obsessed with cultivation. Once they reached maturity, their lifespans exceeded those of humans, so their means of survival were naturally better than those of laid-off workers. Thus, many monsters were reluctant to cultivate and spent their days idling about. Zhang Twenty-Eight was one of them. The fact that his demon power had recently surpassed two hundred was due to purchasing bat blood genes from the Chifeng Legion and relying on drug stimulation for growth.
Fang Lin Kong had no idea about this; seeing how weak Zhang Twenty-Eight was—his first recruited subordinate—he felt quite embarrassed. He said, "I happen to have a unique dragon fruit from Gou Li World that can enhance your demon power by several hundred after consumption. I'll also give you this cultivation manual; focus on your training and don’t embarrass me too much. Soon, people from Kunlun will come looking for me; you need to be responsible for receiving them and not let them look down on us too much. From today onward, don’t step out of here even once; concentrate on your training and absorb the medicinal properties of the dragon fruit."
Haocangxu would soon be sending people to report to Fang Lin Kong; he wanted to prepare early. After giving orders to Zhang Twenty-Eight, he stood up to leave, leaving Zhang Twenty-Eight with a bitter expression on his face. Thinking about how long it had been since he last saw Wen Yi and the others, Fang Lin Kong discerned their location and headed in that direction.
Wen Yi and Ma Jingjie were staying in a business suite at a hotel under Chifeng Legion's name. Since they didn’t have to pay anything, they had made themselves at home there for over a month now. When Fang Lin Kong participated in the Gouli Continent adventure team selection and bought Monster Legend Equipment that he had no use for, he conveniently mailed it back home. Of course, he wouldn’t treat anyone unfairly; he also bought two extra sets for Chen Mingbin and Ma Jingjie as well.
They were originally a pair of idle gamers, but after receiving this gift, they became utterly absorbed in Monster Legend.
Developed by the International Demon Alliance, Monster Legend is a super game that combines the most advanced gaming engines with intricate Western Magic and Eastern Immortal Path, perfectly merging them together. The monsters that roam this game far surpass any ordinary online game in existence. Once Wen Yi and Ma Jingjie entered, they were immediately captivated by the grand world structure.
The profession system in Monster Legend is incredibly complex; any spell from reality can be replicated within it. The biggest difference between monsters and humans is that monsters inherently possess immense power. Due to fairness principles, Monster Legend can only suppress the monsters' abilities within the game, making it a battlefield for monsters to test their combat skills and achieve maximum destructive effects with minimal effort.
The game is not only entertaining but also cultivates practical experience. Moreover, Monster Legend contains all the elements of an online game. Its specialized helmet requires an identity card issued by the International Demon Alliance to activate. As a premium entertainment service, everything in Monster Legend must be purchased with real money. Conversely, earnings from the game can also be exchanged for real currency.
Wen Yi had just exited the game, cursing, "How infuriating! They can play Fireball to such a twisted degree, defeating me so many times with just magic power equal to seventy percent of mine. It's simply inhuman!"
Ma Jingjie followed suit and exited as well, saying to Wen Yi, "That guy was never human; this place is filled with monsters! But just a few days ago, he could easily defeat you using only about half his power. Speaking of which, Wen Yi, you have made some progress."
Wen Yi muttered, "If I haven't improved after being defeated over a hundred times, then I must have a pig's brain! It's a pity Chen Mingbin isn't here to play; otherwise, the three of us would dominate Monster Legend together. That would be so much fun!"
Suddenly, a light laugh echoed in their ears. "You didn't even think to include me? You guys are too lacking in camaraderie!"
Wen Yi and Ma Jingjie turned around and almost simultaneously shouted, "Fang Lin Kong!"
Wen Yi exclaimed in surprise, "How did you come back? That substitute of yours is utterly annoying. He acts like a wooden block every day and has no other hobbies outside of studying. Plus, during exams, he never lets us copy his answers."
Fang Lin Kong grinned as he glanced at the computer screen and patted both their shoulders before squeezing into Wen Yi's seat.
Originally, the hotel did not offer this service; however, due to the different status of Wen Yi and Ma Jingjie, the Chifeng Army specially equipped their room with computers and sofas. Living arrangements were all-inclusive—eating, sleeping, living, and entertainment—all in one package. If it weren't for the hotel staff coming to clean every day, this place would have turned into a pigsty long ago.
Fang Lin Kong casually donned Wen Yi's helmet and logged into Monster Legend. When he noticed a group of people around him sneering maliciously, he paid them no mind. One person suddenly said to Fang Lin Kong, "What's wrong? Haven't you been killed enough? Still dare to log in?"
Fang Lin Kong, known for his bad temper, couldn't be bothered to respond and simply flipped them off. This action immediately enraged the group, and a fight broke out. In Monster Legend, Fang Lin Kong's abilities were limited, but his combat skills were on a different level compared to Wen Yi. Although Wen Yi's level in Monster Legend wasn't high, when Fang Lin Kong made his move, he locked onto all the moving targets around him within moments. Each person's weaknesses appeared as if they were lined up, waiting for him to strike.
Wen Yi and Ma Jingjie watched the screen in awe as Fang Lin Kong moved like an elegant dancer, effortlessly dispatching the attackers as if he were taking a leisurely stroll. They were stunned and excited, eagerly rubbing their hands together. They had offended some players in Monster Legend and had been relentlessly hunted down; now that Fang Lin Kong was avenging them, the pent-up frustration of several days dissipated like the wind, leaving them feeling exhilarated.
As the last opponent fell, Fang Lin Kong exited the game and remarked, "Killing in this game is really satisfying, but they're all just rookies—no real experts here."
Wen Yi had already seen that monster who had killed him over a hundred times appear clumsy under Fang Lin Kong's hand, like a puppet. Even those who might have been more skilled than that monster fell as easily as cutting vegetables. Although he wanted to tell Fang Lin Kong that these were renowned experts in the game, he couldn't find the right words to express how weak they seemed against Fang Lin Kong's overwhelming strength.
Pushing aside the gaming equipment, Fang Lin Kong said lightly, "I've come back as an elder of Kunlun Celestial Path and will be responsible for Kunlun's affairs regarding monsters. Soon, some people from Kunlun will come over. I will also recruit some monsters to join us; you should help me too. After all, we are friends. This department will have a new name starting today... let's call it Heavenly Peng Camp!"
