Chapter 613: A Month's Head Start

"Time is almost up; we should go to the center." Calculating the time, those people outside should have all entered the world-within-a-world. Moreover, through the virtual network, they also understood that now, in the Thunder World, only Star-level beings could enter.

The top forces of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire had already discussed and arranged for an army of nearly two million Star-level 9s to enter.

"Before that, we also need to find a backer."

Su Fan suddenly proposed.

This made Luo Feng and the others pause.

"You don't think that the top forces of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire will let us people leave, do you?"

"This world-within-a-world—not to mention the treasure of that World Lord, just the Universe Crystals inside are a treasure. In this nearly one month, we have mined over one hundred million Universe coins."

"This wealth is something even ordinary Universe-level beings might not necessarily be able to produce."

"Do you think the people outside will let us go? Perhaps those Domain Lord-level powerhouses don't care about this small amount of money, but what about the other Universe-level, or even Star-level beings?"

"Without a backer, I'm afraid we won't even be able to get out of the Thunder World."

"So we must have a backer who can let us leave safely."

Su Fan said seriously. In the original work, Luo Feng and the others were able to leave safely because they brought out a fifth-grade weapon, and it was a superior fifth-grade weapon at that.

In the original work, Luo Feng and the others relied on Ming Yu, that two-star universe mercenary whose strength was at the top level among Domain Lords.

They had also been appreciated by the other party in the Sha Lu Kong Jian.

To tell the truth, that Ming Yu was quite easy to talk to; he took Luo Feng's fifth-grade force weapon and also transferred twenty billion Universe coins to the other party, which was equivalent to tens of thousands of life planets.

So Su Fan's idea was still to find this person as a backer; he didn't dare to trust others, although he did know some powerhouses in the Sha Lu Kong Jian on Qiu Long Star.

After all, in a few months, he had become a four-star killing warrior, and his potential was quite good.

But compared to Luo Feng and Hong, he was still a bit lacking, especially Hong, who had indeed been appreciated by many powerhouses in the Sha Lu Kong Jian.

After all, to comprehend a domain while at the Planet level—this was something many Universe-level beings hadn't comprehended.

How strong his talent was, anyone could see.

Su Fan also knew that many large and small forces in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire had tried to win over Hong and the others.

Su Fan's words were very straightforward, and Luo Feng and the others naturally understood.

"Brother's meaning is for us to find a backer among those top forces?"

"That's right! I think you should know some Domain Lord experts, right?"

Universe-level ones simply weren't enough to look at; only Domain Lords had the face. As for World Lords, Su Fan also knew that even Luo Feng and the others couldn't reach them right now.

"Speaking of which, there really is one. Some time ago, didn't we join the Virtual Universe Company, Black Dragon Mountain branch as external personnel? Isn't that Lord Ming Yu a Domain Lord-level expert?"

Luo Feng said upon hearing this.

Seeing this, Su Fan also felt relieved inside. Sure enough, they had contacted that Ming Yu. It was also because Su Fan's influence was too small after all.

And Luo Feng and the others' talent could not be hidden no matter what.

Especially in the early stages, Hong's talent was even beyond Luo Feng's. If it weren't for Luo Feng having the Golden Horned Behemoth as his main body to cheat...

To tell the truth, he really couldn't compare to Hong.

"Virtual Universe Company, Black Dragon Mountain branch—that's even better. With this person, even if we get some treasures, as long as we take some out, we will definitely be able to leave the Thunder World safely."

"That World Lord's treasure—I say, Little Li, you are daydreaming."

Babata stood out at this time and couldn't help but say.

Of course, he was a bit unhappy inside because, due to Su Fan, they had mined much fewer Universe Crystals.

Half of them were mining those worthless broken stones.

Su Fan naturally knew Babata's dissatisfaction, but his expression didn't change, and he still smiled: "Babata, wait a few more days, and you will know what kind of treasure we are mining."

"Rest assured, this time, we will definitely be able to get quite a bit of that World Lord Kabu's treasure."

They were already close to the core area, and Su Fan didn't mind exposing some things. In any case, Luo Feng and the others would inevitably be suspicious by then.

After all, this was a prophecy.

However, Su Fan also believed that even if he didn't say it, Luo Feng and the others wouldn't probe deeply.

"Really?"

"When have I ever lied to you?"

Su Fan said with a smile: "Luo Feng, since you know that Lord Ming Yu, why not contact him now? With him, we should be able to enter that core area safely."

"Good, I'll contact him now."

Luo Feng didn't hesitate upon hearing this and immediately entered the virtual network to contact that Ming Yu.

Just like in the original timeline, with Ming Yu's recommendation, Luo Feng and his group quickly became part of the Three-Axe Mountain camp. Of course, the power of Three-Axe Mountain right now wasn't enough; compared to the five major camps like the Hundred-Tiger Tower and North Dragon City, it was still quite a bit behind.

There was no leader, but as a top force in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, Three-Axe Mountain naturally had a piece of territory in the core area.

With Ming Yu vouching for Luo Feng and the others, a captain of Three-Axe Mountain naturally came out in advance to bring Luo Feng and his group into the core camp.

"The treasure is in that castle?"

Luo Feng and the others arrived at the army camp. The next day, early in the morning, they all got up and were surprised to see a dark blue castle in the center.

"It's almost inside there. However, right now, the several major forces around haven't moved."

"They are all waiting."

Su Fan was calm. Now, in this core area, there were nearly one hundred thousand people, the vast majority of whom were free adventurers; people belonging to the major top forces were still very few.

These free adventurers were now being won over, just like their group—weren't they also free adventurers, just relying on Three-Axe Mountain for a backer?

Three-Axe Mountain's power was very weak, only about a thousand people.

But Su Fan knew that in a few days, that army of two million would arrive, and the two major holy lands of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, the four major forces, and the sixteen families would all arrive.

At that time, it would be the moment for them to compete, and the original free adventurers could only be considered cannon fodder.

However, Su Fan was not afraid. Now that they had joined Three-Axe Mountain and had Ming Yu as a backer, even the leader of Three-Axe Mountain wouldn't do anything to Su Fan and the others.

After all, in terms of potential, Hong and Luo Feng and the others were far beyond these people. With Ming Yu's order, they would definitely be well protected.

And importantly, they occupied the head start at this moment.

In one month, although they searched like looking for a needle in a haystack, they had also mined over eight hundred thousand Thunder Stones. ===== CHAPTER 614 =====
