109 Gathering of Experts (1)
Lin Feng and Su Xiuxiu added each other’s contact information. Then, he looked at Ye Ningxue.
When facing Su Xiuxiu, he could act like a strange uncle and let her buy his things. However, when facing Ye Ningxue, he could not do so.
After all, the other party was the person he was most familiar with in his previous life, even though the other party did not know him now.
Therefore, Lin Feng said, “I’ll give you two pieces of equipment. Choose what you need yourself.”
“Huh?” Ye Ningxue was stunned.
“Just treat it as your reward for helping me as a priest and entering the dungeon together,” Lin Feng added.
“There’s no need. You brought me to level up and even used your scroll. You’ve already done enough,” Ye Ningxue said indifferently.
Ye Ningxue had a cold personality to begin with. Therefore, she felt that she had already taken advantage of Lin Feng by coming along to level up. Therefore, she did not want the other party’s equipment.
“That’s different.” Lin Feng said, “The Qin family has already said that they will reimburse the consumption of the scroll. Therefore, you working as my priest should be counted separately.”
Was that so? Ye Ningxue was somewhat puzzled. Seeing that Lin Feng seemed to insist on giving her equipment, she said.
“How about this? I’ll… buy two pieces of equipment?”
Lin Feng really felt that it was fair for him to give two pieces of equipment as remuneration. However, since the other party said so, he nodded and agreed.
Ye Ningxue chose two pieces of equipment and was about to pay when she felt a little awkward.
“Well, I don’t have enough money on me. I’ll give it to you after some time, okay?”
Lin Feng smiled. “It’s fine. Let’s talk about it later.”
“Yes.” Ye Ningxue’s face was a little red. Then, she thought for a moment and asked the question that had always been in her heart.
“Um, did we know each other in the past? Why do I feel that you’re somewhat familiar?”
Lin Feng’s heart rumbled, and his mind instantly went blank.
She knew him? That shouldn’t be the case. After all, hadn’t he transmigrated back in time?
“You… should be mistaken. Isn’t this the first time we’ve met?” Lin Feng hesitated and said.
“Oh.” Ye Ningxue did not ask further. It was a small question to begin with. Since it was an illusion, she decided to forget it.
Lin Feng turned around and took a deep breath.
Why? Why did Ye Ningxue feel this way? This did not make sense.
Lin Feng originally wanted to say something, but he realized that he did not know what to say, so he only replied perfunctorily.
Could it be that they originally knew each other? Didn’t he transmigrate back? Who would dare to believe it? Moreover, Lin Feng did not want to affect the other party’s fate anymore, so he left it at that.
Lin Feng shook his head and looked at the black cat, wanting to divert his attention.
“Little Black, did you see anything?”
The black cat turned around. It could not be bothered with Lin Feng calling it Little Black.
“When I recover, I’ll definitely turn you into my human pet!” This was the black cat’s thought.
“Did you sense a killing aura?” The black cat said.
“A killing aura?” Lin Feng looked around at the mutated beasts that were constantly killed by the sea of flames.
Logically speaking, only high-level experts could sense this mysterious aura. However, Lin Feng was once at the divine level and his mental strength was also very powerful now. He naturally could sense some of it.
“Isn’t this very normal? In endless dungeons, if you keep killing monsters, there will naturally be killing aura,” Lin Feng said.
The black cat shook its head. “That’s not what I’m talking about. Although these mutated beasts will indeed form killing aura when they’re killed, haven’t you realized that this killing aura is too little?”
“Huh?” Lin Feng was stunned when he heard this. That’s right. Logically speaking, the killing aura should be extremely dense when killing monsters like this. But why was there so little?
Lin Feng looked at the black cat, hoping that it could explain.
“I discovered that the killing aura seems to have sunk into the ground and been absorbed.” The black cat looked at the ground and said.
Lin Feng also looked at the ground and carefully sensed.
Indeed, after every mutated beast was killed, it would form some killing aura. However, only a small portion remained in the air. Most of the killing aura had sunk into the ground and disappeared.
The black cat continued, “You feel it, right? Moreover, I discovered that we’ve actually been walking in circles. There doesn’t seem to be anything in the distance, but we’ve actually been affected by the killing aura and haven’t gone far at all.”
Lin Feng was shocked. Then, he looked into the distance, but he could not see anything with his naked eye. It was still endlessly flat.
With a thought, his mental strength instantly expanded to a thousand meters, but he still did not sense anything.
“Pay attention to the killing aura left behind by those mutated beasts after they die,” the black cat said.
Lin Feng mainly focused his mental strength on a mutated beast. The mutated beast stepped into the sea of fire and slowly moved forward.
After seven to eight steps, it was finally burned to ashes and formed a trace of killing aura. 99% of the killing aura fell to the ground and only 0.1% floated in the air.
Suddenly, the 0.1% killing aura directly entered the void. Then, not far away, another mutated beast respawned.
Sensing this scene, Lin Feng’s expression changed.
“Is this the refresh rule?”
The black cat nodded. “When I first entered, I was very puzzled as to why mutated beasts would continuously respawn until I discovered this. These mutated beasts seemed to be formed by the killing aura. However, these mutated beasts are formed through a very small amount of killing aura. This method…”
