We can see Shadow? Fake, it’s all fake!

Once Tejima Ichiro and the others sent the long-tailed snake goddess statue back to reality, Qin Feng temporarily lost sight of the situation.

"It seems I still have to make a trip to Sakura Country."

Qin Feng thought to himself.

In the God Forsaken Game, flying directly from Demon Capital to the East Capital region of Sakura Country was not something current players could achieve.

The distance between the two places was extremely vast, with many areas having ultra-high lifespan flow rates, and even many regions like the 'Pollution River' filled with Upper Affix energy.

Even if Qin Feng entered them, it would be difficult to pass through smoothly.

It would be better to just use a teleportation array and spend a few decades of lifespan to get there.

However, Qin Feng estimated that it would take some time for things to ferment. After all, communication was inconvenient now, and news could only be passed through private chats between individuals; it wouldn't be that fast to gather a hundred thousand people together.

Furthermore, the KEY Guild hadn't made any moves yet.

In Qin Feng's memory, it was only after the 'Statue Murder Incident' that the KEY Guild found that NPC and invited them back, and they weren't very useful when first invited…

After all, at this stage, almost no players could obtain items that didn't belong to their own world!

Of course, even if Qin Feng remembered incorrectly and the KEY Guild invited the NPC back, it wouldn't matter much.

As long as Qin Feng crushed the KEY Guild until it disbanded, he could take the NPC away in the process!

Back home, doing this would be a bit unsportsmanlike.

But since it was in Sakura Country…

Who would care about that?

…

Thus, Qin Feng first took the time to visit the Los Angeles Ruins in North America.

He met the Epic BOSS 'Scaredy Shack', who was diligently 'working' for him!

Los Angeles Ruins, a small room next to the teleportation array hall.

The Scaredy Shack, formed from congealed flesh and blood, sat in the corner of the room, emitting waves of 'Instant Death' and 'Nightmare' Upper Affix energy, surrounded by a lingering black energy body.

But when Qin Feng arrived…

The Scaredy Shack of congealed flesh trembled instantly, and a fawning smile appeared on the shack's door: "Lord Shadow, you've come… The Barren Wasteland just spread recently, so fewer people are coming online to level up. The harvest these past two days hasn't been very good…"

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng thought, 'Oho, this guy wants to haggle.'

He immediately gave the shack a look that was a smile but not a smile: "You collect fees by the week. When you started collecting, the Barren Wasteland hadn't arrived yet. Cut the crap and hand over this week's share first—thirty-five thousand years of lifespan."

Hearing this, the Scaredy Shack was instantly moved to tears.

It obediently tossed out the lifespan, one thousand-year white lifespan light orb after another onto the ground.

Qin Feng absorbed them leisurely, soon pocketing the 35,000 years of tradable lifespan!

Then he turned to leave and returned to the teleportation array hall.

Just then, the teleportation array lit up with a burst of light…

Several figures had actually teleported over.

At this moment, Qin Feng was not maintaining his stealth.

Consequently, those figures immediately came face-to-face with Qin Feng.

*Gulp…*

One of the girls swallowed hard.

Qin Feng glanced over and saw they were four players of Great Xia descent, two men and two women.

One of the girls was first shocked, then somewhat excited: "It's Shadow, it's really Shadow…"

But quickly, the young man next to her, who seemed to be her boyfriend, reacted. He pulled her away immediately: "What Shadow? We didn't see anything! Don't talk nonsense! With Shadow's Stealth Level, could we possibly see him? It's fake, all fake, just an illusion!"

The group immediately looked straight ahead and quickly left the teleportation array room!

They seemed afraid that because they had run into 'Shadow' here, they would be silenced… After all, Shadow's appearance here meant he might have some deal with the Trembling Clown!

Besides, even if they didn't want to leave, it wasn't realistic.

Because the area was surrounded by Instant Death and Nightmare energy, if they didn't leave the 200-meter range of the Scaredy Shack within twenty seconds, they would fall into a nightmare state upon Death.

Besides Qin Feng, who else could stay in this place?

And according to Qin Feng's previous instructions, the Scaredy Shack didn't need to bother with players teleporting to the Los Angeles Ruins.

So, the Trembling Clown · Assassinator, who was guarding the entrance in stealth, directly let those four people leave.

"…"

Qin Feng watched this scene quietly and did not follow.

Thinking about it, these should be players from other City Ruins in North America who intended to join the Great Xia Guilds in the Los Angeles Ruins.

Currently, the fourteen Great Xia Guilds in the Los Angeles Ruins were living very well!

With the Trembling Clown as their backing, no one dared to bully members of the Great Xia Guilds anymore. Because once a Great Xia Guild player was killed, they could take the 'kill record' to the Trembling Clown!

Anyone who killed a member of a Great Xia Guild, even if they had paid the protection fee, would be put on the Trembling Clown's hunting list!

In fact, even now, some players were still occasionally hunted down by the Trembling Clown out of the blue.

Clearly, they were the ones who hadn't paid the protection fee.

Under Stina's management, the Trembling Clown's hunting list was very clear. With a quick check, one would know who could be killed and who couldn't.

"Over in Sakura Country, it should take another day or two to ferment."

"The leveling spots around the East Capital Ruins have been mostly cleared."

"I can't miss the leveling spots around the Los Angeles Ruins either."

Since Qin Feng had come once, he wouldn't return empty-handed. While collecting lifespan from the Trembling Clown, he also planned to make a round of the leveling spots outside the ruins.

He checked his nightmare resistance.

If the effect of 'Son of Superiority' wasn't considered, the nightmare resistance Qin Feng had stacked through 'Endless Nightmare' had already broken through 1,000 points!

Doubled by the Son of Superiority, it was over 2,000 points.

"Cheating is fun for a moment, but cheating forever is forever fun~"

Qin Feng could only marvel. Once these skills evolved and their effects stacked, they were truly heaven-defying!

He rode Osirio and flew toward the outside of the ruins.

He planned to find some areas above Level 25 and clear out all the monsters.

A few minutes later, Osirio flew over a patch of withered grassland, which was a spawn point for Level 17-19 monsters.

Qin Feng saw many parties grinding monsters and leveling up on the grass.

Although it was a Fierce Area, the monster respawn rate wasn't fast, so those leveling parties were searching for monsters all over the grassland…

Suddenly, Qin Feng saw a familiar figure.

It was the long-haired beauty manager of the 'Los Angeles Great Xia Chamber of Commerce'—Dawn.

She was leading her party in grinding monsters to level up.

But besides the six people in her party, there was a young man next to her who kept pestering her, seemingly requesting something…

"Oh, it's him?"

Qin Feng took a look and was amused.

Wasn't this 'JC.Flame', who had died by his hands before?

Previously in the Los Angeles Ruins, when he was pretending to be the Trembling Clown and clearing out those North American players, this guy was one of them!

The last time he saw him, he was participating in the siege of the Great Xia Guild players in Los Angeles.

And now, he had run over to Dawn, asking her to let him join the guild?
