Master of the End Times
chapter-677

“Hi, Manager Yu!”

“Nice to meet you, Manager Guo!”

Their strengths differed greatly but they treated each other with the utmost respect.

Plainly speaking, Yu Yangtao’s role was to deter rascals and troublemakers. His strength as a B-tier was enough to dissuade other corporations from targeting Fengli. He would be the guardian of this place once Qin Feng had left East Sea City.

As for Guo Guan, he was temporarily relocated here to work on research and development. Once completed, he would immediately return to Fengli City. Since there was no conflict of interest, the two of them could co-exist harmoniously.

They shook hands and chatted for a while. Then Guo Guan led Yu Yangtao into a room.

“This is the room I have prepared for you. You must be exhausted after drifting on the sea for so many days. Take a warm bath and have some rest. We will catch up on work later on. Don’t worry about it for now.”

“You are right. I am in such a mess right and could use some rest. Thank you for the hospitality.”

Qin Feng’s Sacred Armor was unscathed but Yu Yangtao’s battle suit had been badly corroded. He was currently wearing only a vest made from B-tier beast king material.

He did look a little out of place wearing such an outfit at this time of the year.

After he helped Yu Yangtao settle down, Guo Guan went to talk to Qin Feng.

“Is the consciousness manipulator ready?” Qin Feng asked.

“Yes. It can be activated anytime.”

“Now would be a good time. Once done, we will retrofit the Glutton with bio-engineering.”

“Roger that.”

Guo Guan and Qin Feng immediately got down to business.

Previously, Qin Feng had controlled a lot of beast puppets during the opening of the Far Woodland Rift at Beihua City.

However, the undead puppet would continuously consume Qin Feng’s conscious power. Once he withdrew his consciousness, the puppet would immediately turn into a wasted carcass and no longer be usable.

Some dark ability users did work on how to preserve the corpse, such as using a coffin or other means to protect the corpse. However, Qin Feng did not need to and would not go into that route.

As powerful as he was, studying those would just be a waste of time.

Nevertheless, he sometimes found it hard to part ways with a decent puppet when one had been found.

After the prodigy tournament, Qin Feng had obtained a lot of ancient literature from The Perished Lands. From the record, Qin Feng learned that the Soul Tribe had been practicing such a technique for centuries.

It was an extra pleasant surprise.

Qin Feng had been to Dusan in between but insectoids relied greatly on their numbers rather than individual strength. They were too fragile to be turned into a puppet.

The Glutton Leviathan, on the other hand, was a perfect candidate.

Thus, Qin Feng had requested that the Consciousness Manipulator be made three days ago. Guo Guan had abandoned all other tasks and focused solely on rushing on the prototype these past few days.

Qin Feng first opened up the Glutton’s skull. With a robotic arm, Guo Guan then dropped a ball of around five meters in diameter into it.

The ball was decorated by silver streams that flashed periodically. It had future technology written all over it. It hovered inside the head and replaced the monster’s brain. Qin Feng then infused his consciousness into it and kept his aura in it.

Then, he cut off his consciousness but the undead Glutton did not collapse. It held up perfectly.

“We made it!” Guo Guan was excited. Once passing the first step, Guo Guan could foresee another behemoth that was going to be born in his hands.

“Great! You may start retrofitting it now. I’m going to go shower first. The regent of the east shore might be here later.”

“Don’t worry, President.”

Indeed, Qin Feng would not need to worry about Guo Guan’s enthusiasm in this. After he returned to the aircraft, Qin Feng first cleaned himself up and meditated for half an hour.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

He Jia, who had been waiting near the port, gave Qin Feng a call.

Tung Yang had arrived. He was waiting inside the Garrison Hall.

The Garrison Hall was considered a smaller branch of Certification Hall. Aptitude users could conveniently accept and complete a mission here without the need to travel all the way back to East Sea City.

But the mission Qin Feng had collected was too grand for the Garrison Hall to process. Qin Feng did plan to go to East Sea City initially.

He walked out from his aircraft. Though he had just been here for a few days, almost everyone recognized him after what happened in the past two hours.

“Governor Qin, this way!” He Jia jogged toward him and led him into the Garrison Hall.

On the first floor Inside the hall, many aptitude users had gathered and tacitly gave way to Qin Feng when they saw him. This allowed Qin Feng to access the lift with little hassle.

He took the lift to the sixth floor and a majestic meeting room appeared in front of him when the lift doors opened.

A person was seen sitting inside the room. He stood up when the lift opened.

“Governor!”

“Regent!”

They shook hands and sat on the comfortable sofa.

“Thank you for your contribution to the east region. You will get your reward when submitting the mission report downstairs later. I will then hold a celebration banquet back in East Sea City. After you complete the supporting mission six months later, I will then award you an honorable badge.”

Tung Yang had his wish. It was no doubt commendable that Qin Feng had immediately made an impact. If Qin Feng wished to leave now, Tung Yang would not have any reason to stop him. But Tung Yang clearly hoped to retain Qin Feng here so that he could hunt down more beasts. It would be best if Qin Feng could stay for at least another six months.

Qin Feng, naturally, understood Tung Yang’s intention. He answered, “This is my duty. As for the banquet, I am not the kind that likes such fanfare. There’s no need for publicity too. But worry not, I will certainly stay long enough to earn my badge of honor.”

“Hahaha! Great! You are really an admirable young man. I am truly astonished by your capability at such a young age. Let’s be honest, how did you manage to kill the Glutton? I hope you can satisfy my curiosity.”

“It’s actually not as difficult as you think. All that I did was…” Qin Feng told Tung Yang the entire process.

“Sigh. It’s easier for you to say. Not many could have done what you did.”

If surviving ten hours inside the Glutton’s body was as easy as Qin Feng said, then other A-tiers would not have died facing it.

There must be some hidden secret in between. But Tung Yang knew he should not poke any further since Qin Feng did not mention it.

“Qin Feng, you now have control over the Glutton. What’s your next step?”

Qin Feng frowned and looked back at Tung Yang. “What do you mean?”

“As you know, there are still a lot of ferocious beasts on our wanted list here on the east shore. Each hunt brings a lucrative reward!”

Qin Feng was speechless. This Tung Yang wanted him to fight all of them?

To be honest, Qin Feng was able to defeat the Glutton Leviathan purely based on luck. It so happened that Qin Feng’s ability could protect him from the Glutton while also hurting it.

It would be a different ending if the monster that appeared was not the Glutton Leviathan but another beast.

Qin Fen is not invincible. Even though he had jumped three tiers into the B-tier now, he would still have to run the next time he faced an A-tier beast emperor on the list.
