Mechanical God Emperor

215 - Land of Battle of Gods

Because of his desire to acquire the 300 elves, Artais ruthlessly stabbed his former good friend and close partner, Gerald, from behind with a sword.

Belinda was fully aware that their fate was in Yang Feng's hands now.

She said softly: "Thank you very much for saving us, Master Ian. You mentioned before that you want to go to the Elven Empire and meet Her Highness Great Elven Monarch Esramia. I'll do everything in my power to have the higher-ups agree to your request."

Nancy also said softly: "Thank you for saving us, Master Ian!"

The loli Nanni also said happily: "Thank you, Master Ian!"

At a glance, Yang Feng saw through Belinda's vigilance. He didn't expose her. He only smiled and brandished his sword downwards. With a holly glimmer, the special net binding Belinda was cut open.

Belinda only now heaved a sigh of relief. She drew her elven sword. With the flash of a sword ray, the net binding Karina was cut open.

Karina jumped onto her feet. The sword in her hands flickered and moved alike a prancing dragon among the tied up elves, cutting open the nets and releasing the firmly bound elves.

Yang Feng acted no more. He directly sheathed the Sword of Light, took a few steps back, and quietly waited.

Yang Feng thought secretly: "Karina's swordsmanship is even better than Belinda's, yet she was so easily defeated. It seems that her actual combat experience is very little."

As far as swordsmanship was concerned, Karina, who was born of the sun elves and had access to pointers from numerous experts, was far stronger than Belinda. However, her actual combat experience was too little, which was why she was defeated by the human slave hunters who used some strange tricks. If she had 30% of Belinda's battle experience, then Artais and the others wouldn't have so easily captured the 300 elves.

After all of her companions were rescued, Belinda heaved a slight sigh of relief and looked at Yang Feng with more gratitude in her eyes.

The 300 elves looked at Yang Feng with traces of goodwill and gratitude in their beautiful eyes. They were quite aware that they would have very miserable ends if it wasn't for him.

Karina, carrying a fragrance, walked up to Yang Feng. Her limpid, beautiful eyes, which were capable of entrancing a person's soul, brimmed with smiles as she expressed her thanks: "Ian, you're a good person. Thank you for saving us!"

"A good person?" When Yang Feng heard her pure thanks and looked at her pure and beautiful eyes, his feelings turned complicated and his mood became downcast. At this moment, he threw all his schemes aside and said in vexation: "Maybe I was a good person once! Now, however, I'm just a common person with a bottom line."

Yang Feng was secretly alarmed after uttering his laments. He operated his secret method and gathered his spirit, before looking at Karina with vigilance, "Shit! My spirit was swayed just now! So scary. The reputation of the Krossdale Family's pureblood elves possessing divine looks capable of even corrupting a god isn't without reason."

Karina didn't use any charming spells. Just her natural presence painted such a beautiful scenery that the more you looked at it, the more fascinating it felt.

Although Yang Feng was someone who had seen his share of beauties, yet he was still unconsciously attracted by Karina's charm from just looking her in the eyes.

Karina said: "Your sword is very beautiful, can I take a look at it?"

Yang Feng smiled and handed Karina the Sword of Light.

Karina drew the Sword of Light and waved it in her hand. The sword added a sacred radiance to her and made her look sacred alike the embodiment of a goddess.

Karina waved the Sword of Light excitedly and said with a smile, looking lovely beyond belief: "Sure enough, you're a cheater. I was wondering how you could look that good, so it's due to magic."

"In fact, I'm not bad looking to begin with. It's not just due to magic."

"How arrogant!"

"It's not arrogance, but self-confidence!"

"Ian, do you really want to build a city here in the Red Earth Wasteland? There's nothing here! Even if the city is built, but how do you intend to maintain it?"

"Although the Red Earth Wasteland is barren, but I'm sure that I can develop it into a huge treasure-trove."

"In history, there were quite a few people tooting their own horns, yet in the end, all left with tails between their legs. Will you be one of them?"

"I'll just be the one to make history!"

"How arrogant!"

"It's not arrogance, but self-confidence!"

"Where does that self-confidence of yours, which makes you think that you can surpass those powerful people, come from?!"

"It's because I'm Ian!"

"…"

Belinda walked over, coughed gently, and interrupted: "Karina, we should go!"

Karina held Belinda's hands and acted very coquettish. "Belinda, I have the sudden urge to see how this arrogant guy will turn the Red Earth Wasteland into a treasure-trove. How about letting me play here for a year or two?"

Belinda said with a bitter smile: "Your Highness Karina, I brought you along at great risk. If you stay here, then we'll have to bear the anger of His Majesty upon return."

Few people could refuse Karina's soft plea. However, Belinda had to consider the fury of the Great Elven Monarch that they would have to bear were Karina to stay in the Red Earth Wasteland.

Karina's beautiful eyes dimmed. With the Sword of Light in hand, she looked at Yang Feng expectantly, and asked: "Ian, I have to go. I like this sword very much, can you give it to me?"

Yang Feng replied with a smile: "Alright!"

Karina took out a green leaf and gave it to Yang Feng: "This is my token. If you show it at the entrance to the Elven Woods, someone will take you to see me."

Belinda's charming complexion changed slightly when she saw it. She hesitated, yet didn't say anything in the end.

Yang Feng took out a black stone and gave it to Karina: "This is a call stone, an alchemical treasure I forged. You can use this call stone to call me when you're in danger."

Karina's beautiful eyes brightened and she said with excitement and expectation: "You're also an Alchemist!"

Alchemy was greatly respected in the Feisuo Plane. In the Feisuo Plane, there were also Wizards specializing in Alchemy. However, the number of Alchemists was much smaller than that of common Wizard. Alchemists could be said to be as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn's horn.

Belinda was also a bit surprised when she heard that. She sized Yang Feng up again and started to seriously doubt whether he was a divine chosen.

Yang Feng smiled and said: "That's right. My Alchemy shouldn't be too bad. Soon, the Red Earth Wasteland will have its own alchemical products. If you like, I can give you exclusive distribution rights in the Elven Empire."

Karina asked curiously: "What do you mean by giving me exclusive distribution rights in the Elven Empire?"

Yang Feng replied: "In the Elven Empire, my goods will only go through you. Regarding those goods, it'll be up to you how and to whom to sell them. In the Elven Empire, I won't sell my goods to anyone else besides you. You can definitely make a fortune by relying on my products!"

Karina smiled happily and said: "Okay! Be sure to show me your finished products! I'll help you sell them if they're any good!"

Belinda just smiled bitterly to the side and watched Yang Feng hoodwink Karina into becoming his client.

After urging Karina on several times, Belinda finally took Karina as well as the 300 elves to the Elven Woods.

Yang Feng watched the backs of Karina and the others, who had already gone far, and contemplated. He pressed the dimensional crest on his chest. A phantom hunter equipped with a flying device flew into the air and overlooked Karina and the others from the middle of the clouds.

In the Feisuo Plane, gods would direct their gazes to the secular world from time to time. Therefore, Yang Feng didn't dare to directly launch a small reconnaissance satellite.

Back in the Miracle City, Yang Feng entered secluded cultivation and started to comprehend the insights he gained in the battle just now. This battle was greatly beneficial towards improving his strength.

One day later.

"The Red Earth Wasteland, the land cursed by gods! The historical truth is hidden in the long river of time! This is the place where gods of the four divine systems came to blows in the past, the land of battle of gods!" Yang Feng trod atop the red earth in the Miracle City. He watched the ever-present red earth, smiling coldly.

According to the Demon-Fighting Sect's records, the Red Earth Wasteland was once the battleground of gods of the four divine systems. A number of embodiments of gods and even true bodies of gods, which descended from their divine countries, fought in this place.

A number of gods fell in that battle and their divine blood dyed the earth red.

Gods were beings that could be said to be life forms at an even higher level than human Warlocks. Without a purification tower, the formidable life force of Warlocks could be merged with non-life-forms and give rise to various strange phenomena. The blood of gods also a terrifying power.

Any place where the blood of gods fell on would have everything eroded and become barren.

Lands of battle of gods were generally dead and in ruin.

The Red Earth Wasteland was also once dead and in ruin, and full of danger. Later, however, in order to prevent the danger in the Red Earth Wasteland from spreading to other places, the gods purified the Red Earth Wasteland. With the passage of time, the Red Earth Wasteland had adopted its current state.

The reason why the Red Earth Wasteland couldn't grow any foodstuff was that there were still traces of power of divine blood in the earth. Ordinary plants couldn't grow with the power of divine blood present.

A fervent glint flashed past Yang Feng's eyes: "For others, this place is a wasteland! For me, however, this place is a treasure-trove!"
