Chapter 860: Gong Ge Seeking Refuge
On the other hand, as soon as Qin Feng returned to the Blood River Realm, he had immediately received reception from Long Yue who was stationed there.
“Qin Feng, looks like you have recovered from your injuries?” Long Yue asked.
“Hmm, much better now!”
“Not bad, you are still young and recovering fast. Now you can be a.s.sured that if He Tianxing comes for you again, I will definitely not allow him to threaten you anymore!”
“Then, I shall first thank you, Battlesaint Long!”
Both of them clearly knew what had happened, and Long Yue did not explain much about him asking Qin Feng to step back either.
Those were already unimportant to talk about.
The Blood River battlefield had already been divided by major influences, and the Dark Coalition had even infiltrated into their own region. However, as soon rifts begin to appear, they might probably swarm in altogether to hunt down ultra beasts or prey on Gorefiends.
Within a week, the number of Gorefiends had plummeted significantly.
Qin Feng did not know the exact location of the Gorefiends either. He only knew some of those places that had a high probability of rifts occurring and they were still undiscovered by others.
Therefore, Qin Feng led his people from the Fengli Organization to maintain a constant distance from the Blood River battlefield. It seemed to be a little far away from the target location.
“Get down from the airs.h.i.+p, establish earth walls, spray around the blood coagulant!”
“Yes, President!”
Apt.i.tude users began to come down from the airs.h.i.+p. Not only had Qin Feng brought along B-tier apt.i.tude users, he had also led a bunch of C-tiers that totaled up to about two hundred people.
All of them would not take part in the battle, but they were all required to perform intelligence gatherings and loot collecting.
Of course, there were risks a.s.sociated with them, but Qin Feng did not have much choice due to his limited manpower availability.
Soon, earth ability users had established a fortress and secured the initial simple defence measure, while the airs.h.i.+p remained floating in the air to pose as a battle threat.
“President, an apt.i.tude user master is looking for you! Although he is wearing a B-tier badge, I feel that he is most probably an A-tier.” A subordinate approached and reported.
“A-tier apt.i.tude user?” Qin Feng did not know who that was, but his consciousness scan had immediately noticed that it was indeed a familiar acquaintance.
Qin Feng walked out from the earth fortress and looked toward the person that was wearing combat fatigues, he was holding a communicator and had even cut his hair short.
“A rare visitor, Elder Gong!” Qin Feng mocked.
This person was the first batch of elders that had officially come into the Blood River Realm.
“Mister Qin, I am finally able to meet you!” Gong Ge saw Qin Feng and his eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with tears of excitement.
He had indeed suffered a lot the past few days.
The aftermath of the battle between Qin Feng and He Tianxing had affected the natives that had travelled via the rift, and they had absolutely lost their ability to defend themselves. They had no choice but to stay away from the battle of the S-tiers so they had moved further away and settled down at the other end of the Blood River battlefield.
However, as the newcomers began to grow, Gong Ge’s position as an A-tier was being threatened. He was neglected by others and his living s.p.a.ce had become smaller.
Initially, Cleaves was planning to render his help as he was also a light ability user. But in a blink of an eye, Gong Ge was targeted by a Dark Coalition group. During the night, five A-tiers had worked together to annihilate all two to three hundred people that were saved by Qin Feng earlier.
Only Gong Ge alone was able to escape, and he had realized the difference of the humans that had newly appeared. He then directly killed one victim for the badge and put it on himself. He had even searched the victim’s spatial rune equipment for clothes and other stuff.
Only then Gong Ge was able to completely escape from his fate of being killed. Also, everyone had begun to keep an eye on those collapsed regions. Even the Gorefiends would definitely not care whether he had hidden his true ident.i.ty or not.
Gong Ge wailed desperately as he forced Qin Feng to listen to his pitiable encounters for the past few days.
“Elder Gong, although I feel sorry for your encounter, please allow me to be direct. Seems like I am unable to help with your current situation!”
“No, dear mister, I clearly know about your capability. Perhaps you might need another helping hand, I am willing to serve you!” Gong Ge immediately began to promote himself.
Compared to the others, Gong Ge definitely had faith in Qin Feng. Initially, he was about to collaborate with Cleaves but he was immediately rejected.
Gong Ge was too ambitious for Cleaves to work with, and collaborating A-tiers would not necessarily mean equality. Most probably the reward would remain the same, but the profit would have to be halved.
Hence, it was impossible for Cleaves to agree to it.
But Qin Feng did not have the same concern, he could already resist a S-tier with his own capability. Even Gong Ge and Cleaves that were both A-tiers would not be qualified as his opponents.
Such a person would not be an ideal partner, but would definitely be a loyal servant!
Qin Feng instantly became interested in the proposal; Gong Ge was definitely an ambitious person. But Qin Feng was totally unafraid of such a person, he could just control this person by letting him know the dire consequences of betraying him.
Also, Qin Feng was looking exactly for an A-tier to be stationed at the location.
“Considering your pitiful situation, I’ll take you in temporarily. As for those Dark Coalition users that killed your people, let’s go, let me get revenge for you!” Qin Feng answered.
Regardless of whether the humans that appeared in the collapsed region were tied to Qin Feng or not, he had already saved them before.
They could be killed by any unfortunate event, but being slaughtered mercilessly and robbed of their wealth was greatly despised by Qin Feng.
Those who murdered shall be killed by others.
Killing those murderers was the most effective way to stop them.
Furthermore, Qin Feng would have to kill to advance his Asteroid a.s.similation skill. It would not cost him anything to kill those Dark Coalition users.
“Ah? No, forget about getting revenge!” Gong Ge immediately weakened his tone. There were five of them, four ancient warriors and one thunder ability user. If Gong Ge did not run fast enough, he would have certainly been killed.
Why would he still go back to them?
How could Gong Ge act in such a dumb way?
“You don’t believe in me?” Qin Feng mocked with a grim laugh, “You don’t even have the basic trust in me, how will you prove your loyalty to me?”
“Mister Qin, not like this. To me, I don’t think we need to take this risk!”
“To you, it is a risk. To me, it’s just getting revenge!”
“Well…”
“Lead the way!”
Qin Feng became harsh with his tone, while Gong Ge trembled as he realized that he had reacted in such a contradicting way. He then made up his callous mind and directly led Qin Feng there.
‘It’s not me who is sending you to die, don’t blame me for it. Is this really happening, it was so difficult for me to find this refuge. Why would he still send himself to die, is Qin Feng a brainless person?’
Gong Ge mocked deep down, but it was impossible for him to voice out his thoughts.
Qin Feng did not use his airs.h.i.+p, and he instructed Bai Li to be stationed at the same location. He then took an aircraft and led Gong Ge to head toward the location of the Dark Coalition group!
