Chapter 223 - The Dark Light (1/2)
In this post-apocalyptic world, E-tiers would normally be leaders of small colonies, the so-called mayor.
In turn, D-tiers would be elected as mayors of larger cities like Chengyang.
C-tiers no longer cohered to a city but would instead establish and lead one’s own organization or a.s.sociation.
There were, of course, different scales of an organization. The influence and magnitude of an organization were directly proportional to its leader’s strength, scaling up from C-tier to A-tier.
Leitang Organization, though only a small a.s.sociation, had a substantial network in the three cities. Organizations usually avoided unnecessary conflict between each other.
‘These do not concern me. I only need to make sure I fully utilize this opportunity.’
Qin Feng blocked off the external voices and went into meditation. He had absorbed the internal power of She-Wolf and the gunner they had killed earlier. She-Wolf’s internal power was especially compact but still far from Qin Feng’s level.
‘Absorb!’
The internal power began to rush through his meridian and strengthened it. Surplus power was stored into his dantian and formed a new energy cloud. It had now reached fifteen layers.
Afterward, Qin Feng took out the G.o.dwill Atlas and started to hone his consciousness. As compared to his internal force, this was obviously more difficult. The extermination of the gunner helped advance his consciousness slightly.
Training on this island was two to three times faster than the normal rate. Others began to take notice of this as well. The chatting quieted down eventually as everyone started to turn their attention into meditation and consciousness training.
Qin Feng opened his eyes around midnight.
“Bai Li, let’s go!”
Qin Feng woke Bai Li up soundlessly.
Bai Li yawned and looked at Qin Feng half-consciously. “Where are we headed to?”
Qin Feng smiled gently. “Treasure, of course.”
Bai Li was enthused. After they got changed, Qin Feng concealed them in dark runes and turned invisible as they camouflaged into the pitch-black surroundings.
They weaved through other E-tier users’ camps in the dark without startling anyone.
Qin Feng asked Bai Li to transport them only when they were far enough.
“Toward the east, to the edge of this island.”
The place they were currently at was not the exact center of the island. To reach the core, it was actually best to enter through the island’s perimeter.
They reached the east side of the island in no time through Bai Li’s s.p.a.cetime ability.
There was no beach around here but a cliff. Down the cliff were caves of different sizes. Most of it looked gigantic.
“In there,” Qin Feng said.
Schwaff!
They disappeared on the spot and reappeared inside one of the caves.
The darkness did not remove Qin Feng’s senses. He was able to distinctly see everything inside the cave. On the ground, there were trails of Dakrocrocs, while stinking p.o.o.ps were seen all over the corners.
Qin Feng marched forward vigilantly.
Snore…
The loud noises of Drakocrocs sleeping reached them.
Qin Feng focused his consciousness toward that direction. A group of Drakocrocs was seen sound asleep.
‘Dark Shroud!’
A large cloud of dark runes spread out quietly. It brought those fast asleep Drakocrocs into deeper darkness.
‘Dark ray!’
A horrifying radiant light burst forth from Qin Feng’s hand.
Qin Feng’s fire laser had become thicker and manifested into a fire claw after he had attained E-tier. The dark laser was less fancy in that regard. Yet, it was no less powerful and shot out to half a meter within a second.
