Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents-Chapter 710 - 493: Lost Madame and Soldiers

"Master, your most loyal servant, the Ghost Mountain God, sincerely thanks you. From now on, the Ghost Mountain God will serve you as a slave, willing to go through fire and water without hesitation. Please don't mind my... my previous rudeness."

The Ghost Mountain God said, directly kneeling on the ground and respectfully kowtowing to Lu Lin.

Lu Lin nodded with satisfaction.

This time, his Consciousness Universe had contained a contract signed with the Ghost Mountain God, making it impossible for the Ghost Mountain God to betray and escape.

"Rise, I forgive you."

Lu Lin felt a secret joy in his heart; no matter how the Ghost Mountain God pretended, under absolute power, it was still exposed.

"Tell me, why have you been sheltering so many Human Tribes in your mountain range?"

Lu Lin was quite curious about this. As per his understanding of the Ghost Mountain God, this character was definitely not easy to deal with. Saying it was out of kindness to protect Humans could only fool idiots. Lu Lin wouldn't be so easily deceived. However, he was very curious why they were doing this.

The Ghost Mountain God was enslaved by Lu Lin at this moment and dared not utter a single false word, recounting his thoughts after gaining sentience over numerous millennia.

Lu Lin listened and felt even angrier. This guy was treating the Human Tribes as an inexhaustible resource for cultivation.

"In the future, you are to continue protecting the Human Tribes here, but..."

As soon as Lu Lin spoke, the Ghost Mountain God immediately understood his meaning and quickly kowtowed in assurance, "Master, rest assured, I, the Ghost Mountain God, will never harm a Human again."

Hearing this, Lu Lin's expression calmed slightly, nodding to show approval.

"Now tell me about the Fox God."

"I clearly left a mark on that Red-haired Fox. How did it end up with you out of nowhere?"

With this, the Ghost Mountain God understood the cause and effect immediately and bitterly said to Lu Lin, "Master, I was also tricked by that cunning fox."

The Ghost Mountain God recounted the oddities of the Fox God from beginning to end, and Lu Lin understood as well.

It seemed that when the Red-haired Fox returned, the Fox God noticed the anomaly on it. But the Fox God was ruthless enough to send a subordinate with whom it had been for years as a pawn to the Ghost Mountain God.

Since the Fox God acted this way, it had already planned to abandon this subordinate's life, truly ruthless.

Moreover, it was a twofold scheme, leading Lu Lin in the wrong direction while having the Ghost Mountain God try to take him down.

But why didn't the Fox God confront Lu Lin directly?

According to the Ghost Mountain God, this Fox God was one of the few at the Star Lord Peak in Pine Mountain World. Could it really fear a mere Human like himself?

This part Lu Lin didn't know. The Fox God saw the traces of the tracking mark left by him but couldn't break it.

There wasn't an accurate assessment of Lu Lin's ability, so it simply threw him to the Ghost Mountain God to test.

For it, the best result was for the Ghost Mountain God and Lu Lin to mutually inflict heavy damages.

At that time, it could step in to clean up the mess, possibly even gaining some considerable benefits.

The Ghost Mountain God had been in Pine Mountain World for years and certainly had numerous treasures. More importantly, if it could learn something about using Spiritual Strength from Lu Lin, the Fox God's future achievements would surely be limitless.

Eventually, it might become the strongest in this realm, even surpassing the Pine Mountain God.

These inner details were unknown to Lu Lin, but they had no impact on his next actions.

Among the three powerful beings named Gods in Pine Mountain World, Lu Lin had already met Pine Mountain God and had taken the Ghost Mountain God as a servant. Next, he definitely intended to meet this one. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Fox God Yan Mei would never expect that the carefully arranged scenario would be cracked by Lu Lin. Although Yan Jiu had been sent away, instead of inflicting mutual destruction, Lu Lin and the Ghost Mountain God had become united, now fully turning against it. This move was indeed a major tactical blunder.

Compared to the previous shrewd strategies, this could be described as losing both people and resources.

The Fox God's location was roughly known by the Ghost Mountain God, who hadn't personally visited that place.

Additionally, its true form was an endless mountain range, making it immobile. Therefore, dealing with the Fox God had to be Lu Lin's task alone.

As Lu Lin was about to leave, he gave the Ghost Mountain God a few suggestions.

Expand the mountain range's coverage; this can be achieved through measures involving the Humans. Over the course of a year, five years, ten years, a hundred years, or a thousand years, the larger the range, the stronger the Ghost Mountain God's power will become, sheltering more Humans.

Moreover, it was absolutely forbidden to use Humans for cultivating wisdom.

Of course, the Ghost Mountain God had the need to enhance wisdom, and as a master, Lu Lin couldn't ignore this demand. He couldn't just make it work without providing any benefits in return.

However, Lu Lin didn't have a better solution at the moment and could only leave this matter for later.

After releasing all the Human Tribes from the Soul Sealing Space Crystal, Lu Lin quietly left.

The Ghost Mountain God would henceforth appear as a deity, guiding these Humans to rebuild their homes and develop civilization. But this time, Lu Lin believed the Ghost Mountain God wouldn't dare to play any tricks again.

From a distance, Fox God Yan Mei watched Ghost Mountain, seeing no changes after a day and a night. It seemed unlikely that strong Humans could find this place in a short time. Coincidentally, the senior sister of Sacred Mountain had new tasks posted, so it withdrew the Avatar projection and returned to its lair.

Lu Lin learned from the Ghost Mountain God that, despite the Fox God's strength being only at Star Lord Peak, its ambitions were not small. It named its lair Qingqiu Mountain.

Evidently, it aimed to rival the Qingqiu Mountain in Longyuan World.

Fortunately, it retained some caution and added the word "small" before the name, providing ample justification for why it would choose such a name.

Lu Lin thought of this and sneered slightly. This Fox God seemed like a character destined for mediocrity, wasting its wits on such matters.

Furthermore, preferring cunning means to achieve its goals hinted that despite being touted as Star Lord Peak, its actual strength might be ordinary.

When Lu Lin arrived at small Qingqiu Mountain, he wouldn't waste words with it and intended to strike it down with a single blow, hoping to bring peace to this world.

On the way to small Qingqiu Mountain, Lu Lin encountered several tribes.

Having made up his mind, Lu Lin no longer hesitated.

Upon meeting any tribe, he absorbed the Humans into his Soul Sealing Space Crystal, and if he encountered any Red-haired Foxes, he restrained them with chains.

It's not that he was reluctant to kill these beings; it's that their pelts were too soft. Especially, he encountered some at the Star Battle Phase and Star Lord Phase levels; their fur was exquisite. (No commercial transaction means no slaughter, the plot requires this, and the author does not encourage purchasing genuine leather products.)

Lu Lin recalled the time his father Lu Ping and mother went shopping in a Green City mall. After a round of browsing, they were so taken aback by the price tags on the clothes that they left without even trying anything on.

Through time travel, Lu Lin became much more astute compared to peers of the same age, remembering how back then, his mother Meng Yu lingered long at a fur sales counter, yearning for a faux fur fox long coat. But the price tag made her console herself with a single sentence.

"We have to work the land every day, wouldn't wearing something so nice just to get dirt on it be heartbreaking? People might mock our foolishness for having more money than sense. Let's drop it. The clothes here only have pricey tags; their styles don't even appeal to me."

Thinking of this, Lu Lin always felt sorry for his mom.

Now, collecting these Red-haired Foxes, he hoped to bring them back to the federation, seeing if someone could craft a high-end luxurious real fox fur coat for his mom.

Time passed day by day.

The Fox God on small Qingqiu Mountain immersed itself in a new task, unaware of Lu Lin's nearing its lair.

At this moment, the Fox God Yan Mei stood on the Starry Sky Battlefield of Pine Mountain World, facing a World Monster with a fox-like appearance.
