"The place is good, but my current equipment is too poor, I can't get in at all!" Luo Feng pondered for a moment, and quickly made a decision.

Luo Feng used the warrior's communicator in his hand to contact Wang Cheng, and then he waited quietly.

After about half a minute, Wang Cheng appeared in front of Luo Feng. Luo Feng was not surprised that Wang Cheng came so quickly. After all, he was flown here by Wang Cheng before, and the whole journey only took a little over a minute.

"Luo Feng, why did you contact me so quickly?" Although Wang Cheng knew what was going on, he still asked.

"Brother Wang, I found a good place, but I don't have a suitable weapon on me right now, and my strength is not enough to get in," Luo Feng explained, and Wang Cheng nodded along.

"This is easy. You've hunted quite a few Lord-level monsters before and collected a lot of precious materials, right?" Wang Cheng smiled and said, "Sell these materials, get some good equipment, and then come back!"

"Uh, Brother Wang, aren't you going to take a look?"

Luo Feng was a little confused. He actually preferred Wang Cheng to go and take a look directly.

In Luo Feng's opinion, with Wang Cheng's strength, if he went in, he could definitely easily uncover the secrets within. If Wang Cheng reaped huge rewards, then as the person who discovered the place, he would also have a share of the credit. This way, he could easily repay part of the debt he owed Wang Cheng. If he was lucky, maybe all his debts would be paid off directly!

Luo Feng did not expect that Wang Cheng would refuse without even thinking about it!

"I'm not interested!" Wang Cheng shook his head directly.

In fact, although Wang Cheng had a detector more advanced than Babata to ensure that the other party could not detect him, Babata could not detect Wang Cheng, but it did not mean that he could not detect some traces left by Wang Cheng.

The reason why Wang Cheng did not directly ask Luo Feng to find Babata at this time, but chose to guide Luo Feng here in this way, was to make everything appear natural.

Otherwise, Babata might have doubts. If things went wrong, he might not give Hu Yanbo's inheritance to Luo Feng. After all, putting aside willpower, Luo Feng's talent, although rare among Earthlings, was only average in the universe. If Babata discovered something unusual, it would not be strange for him not to give Luo Feng the inheritance.

After all, he had already waited for fifty thousand years, and waiting another fifty thousand years was not impossible!

This was clearly not what Wang Cheng wanted to see, so he naturally preferred to let Luo Feng discover all this himself.

"Alright then." Luo Feng scratched his head, and then said, "Then I'll trouble Brother Wang to take me back first!"

"Where are the monster materials you collected?" Wang Cheng asked.

"In a valley to the east."

Luo Feng gave a location, and Wang Cheng quickly flew him there. After the two of them got the monster materials, they left the Australian Continent.

Another flight at a speed of a hundred kilometers per second. In a little over a minute, the two returned to Mingyue Community.

"So fast!"

Luo Feng rubbed his head. Although this was the second time he had experienced this speed, he was clearly still quite unaccustomed to it!

"Haha, this is nothing!" Wang Cheng smiled, then waved his hand, and a large pile of monster materials instantly appeared in the small courtyard in front of Luo Feng's villa.

"I've given you the materials, go and get some equipment!" Wang Cheng added.

"Brother Wang, are you sure I don't need to keep this a secret for you?" Luo Feng asked again. You must know that these monster materials were at least cut from low-level Lord-level monsters. Selling so many materials together would surely reveal his strength!

"I'm not a criminal, what's there to hide?" Wang Cheng smiled, and then said, "If someone asks you, just tell them directly!"

"I understand!" Luo Feng nodded.

Wang Cheng and Luo Feng didn't say much more. The two quickly returned to their respective homes. Wang Cheng went to check on Jiang Mingyue. She was still in the cocoon and didn't seem like she would come out anytime soon. Luo Feng, after greeting his family, began to ponder selling the monster materials he had in hand!

After some deliberation, Luo Feng decided to sell these monster materials to Limit Martial Hall!

Although Limit Martial Hall bought the same materials at a lower price than the HR Alliance, selling them to Limit Martial Hall earned Contribution Points. Luo Feng would later need to buy weapons from Limitless Home. The higher his Contribution Points, the greater the discount. No matter how he looked at it, selling these materials to Limit Martial Hall was not a loss for him!

With his decision made, Luo Feng contacted the procurement staff of Limit Martial Hall in Jiangnan Base City and arranged a transaction location.

That day, Luo Feng took some materials and went to trade with them!

In just one afternoon, Luo Feng sold materials equivalent to three low-level Lord-level monsters and obtained over ten billion Huaxia Coins. Although the procurement staff was surprised by Luo Feng producing so many low-level Lord-level monster materials, he didn't ask too many questions.

But the next day, Luo Feng brought even more monster materials, and among them were materials from mid-level Lord-level monsters. This time, the procurement staff couldn't remain calm.

Without much hesitation, the procurement staff directly reported the matter.

This kind of matter, which was highly likely to involve War Gods, was already difficult for the Limit Martial Hall in Jiangnan Base City to handle, so the matter went directly to the headquarters of Limit Martial Hall.

However, although the Hall Master of Limit Martial Hall was Hong, he did not manage trivial matters usually, let alone the fact that Hong was not at the headquarters of Limit Martial Hall at the moment.

"According to the information, this Luo Feng only became a warrior a little over half a year ago. The highest record of the warrior squad he belonged to before was killing a High-level War General-level monster. Now he has suddenly produced a pile of low-level Lord-level monster materials, and even mid-level Lord-level monster materials." At the headquarters of Limit Martial Hall, Yao Rao, one of Hong's personal guards, was looking at Luo Feng's information, and the more she looked, the more surprised she became.

In fact, Lord-level monsters were difficult to kill!

Among War Gods, only High-level War Gods and Mid-level War Gods dared to say they could kill low-level Lords with 100% certainty. As for those who dared to say they could kill mid-level Lords with 100% certainty, they were only High-level War Gods!

The most crucial point was that during the investigation of Luo Feng by Limit Martial Hall, they also discovered that Luo Feng had used the money he just earned from selling monster materials to buy a pile of weapons usually used by War Gods.

This meant that the previous Luo Feng had likely killed so many monsters with his bare hands, including mid-level Lords!

"According to the records, this Luo Feng is at most a junior War General, but based on various signs, he may already have the strength of a High-level War God!" Yao Rao mused in her heart, and soon another thought flashed through her mind.

"This Luo Feng happens to be in Jiangnan Base City. Could he be related to the matter that the Hall Master is investigating?" Yao Rao thought, and then, without further hesitation, she directly informed Hong, who was in Jiangnan Base City, about the matter via phone!

The next day, Luo Feng, who was at home preparing to face some trouble, did not wait for any trouble. However, Wang Cheng, his neighbor, received two uninvited guests at his home.

Two people, one a cold man, and one a bald man!

Seeing these two people, Wang Cheng was slightly stunned, but then he smiled and said, "Rare guests, please come in!"

After the two entered and sat down, the bald man touched his head and was about to introduce himself, "Mr. Wang, we are—"

"One Planet level seventh order, one Planet level sixth order. I know, Hong and Thor, right?" Wang Cheng asked.

"."

Hearing Wang Cheng's words, the two were slightly stunned, but they quickly nodded.

Originally, the two had investigated Luo Feng and quickly noticed that Wang Cheng, Luo Feng's neighbor, was unusual. However, that was just a suspicion!

But now, with Wang Cheng speaking, they immediately knew they had found the right person. Otherwise, what ordinary warrior could casually mention Planet level sixth and seventh order?

"Let's be direct. I am the 'alien' you are looking for, and as you know, my name is Wang Cheng!" Wang Cheng stated his identity directly.

In fact, Wang Cheng didn't have to be an alien. It was just that Hong and Thor had already made their own assumptions about his identity, and he was too lazy to explain further. Besides, the source of his strength was not easy to explain.

If Wang Cheng said he was just an ordinary Earthling not long ago, who wouldn't be curious? Instead, if he were an alien, everything would make sense.

After all, whether he was an Earthling or an alien, if there were real trouble on Earth, Wang Cheng would do his best to help, out of righteousness or his own conscience!

"Mr. Wang, we came uninvited to thank you for eliminating the Rat Disaster that appeared in Jiangnan Base City," Hong said, carefully choosing his words. As the leader of Earth's warriors, he naturally had pride, but he also knew that the person who looked ordinary in front of him likely possessed world-altering abilities.

He had to be cautious before understanding the situation.

"No need to say more!" Wang Cheng interrupted Hong and said directly:

"We know what you're worried about, but there's no need for that! Firstly, I have no ill intentions towards Earth. Secondly, I have no ill intentions towards humans. Lastly, I just want to live here peacefully. How does that affect you?"

"."

Neither of them spoke. They just nodded silently.

"You two are probably the strongest humans and, in my opinion, the leaders of this planet! That's why I'm interested in talking to you so much. So, gentlemen, would you like to stay for a meal?" Wang Cheng asked.

"No!"

The two were in no mood to eat right now, and they also understood that Wang Cheng was hinting for them to leave. So, they naturally got up to take their leave immediately!

A moment later, Hong and Thor walked out of Wang Cheng's house. They pondered the recent meeting in their minds and soon left Mingyue Community!

Wang Cheng didn't know what the two were thinking. He didn't feel much about their visit. Whether his identity was exposed or not, Wang Cheng felt it didn't matter. Although he was still far from being a match for others in the universe, at this point in Earth's history, he was already fearless!

Not long after Hong and Thor left, Luo Feng rushed to Wang Cheng's house.

"Brother Wang, Limit Martial Hall just sent me a message asking about my strength, and then asked if I was willing to serve as the Inspector of Jiangnan Base City," Luo Feng said for a moment, then continued:

"Why did things suddenly change like this?"

Luo Feng was indeed bewildered. His sudden display of powerful strength had not only not aroused suspicion from Limit Martial Hall but had also earned him an invitation to become an Inspector of a base city.

Luo Feng didn't know what an Inspector meant before, but the email from Limit Martial Hall had already told him.

That person was the highest authority of Limit Martial Hall in Jiangnan Base City. Even the President and Directors of Limit Martial Hall in Jiangnan Base City had to defer to him. Such a position was considered high-ranking and powerful, a meteoric rise for Luo Feng!

"Limit Martial Hall probably already knows the reason for your sudden surge in strength. Your identity is not an issue, and now you have the strength of a High-level War God. Becoming the Inspector of Jiangnan Base City is naturally a piece of cake!" Wang Cheng said calmly.

"Already know?" Luo Feng was slightly surprised.

"That's not important!" Wang Cheng waved his hand. "Whether you take this position or not is up to you!"

"I'll consider it."

Luo Feng was a bit hesitant, but his hesitation wasn't because the Inspector position was bad. Deep down, he didn't reject the position. After all, Luo Feng wasn't like Wang Cheng, who was almost indifferent to everything on Earth. Not to mention his family, just Xu Xin, who was currently in a romantic relationship with Luo Feng, needed Luo Feng to have a suitable status.

Although Luo Feng's strength as a High-level War God was more than enough for Xu Xin, with this strength combined with a very high status, wouldn't that be even better?

Of course, it was precisely because the position was so good that Luo Feng felt a sense of unreality, which made him hesitate for a moment.

"However, even if you become the Inspector, Luo Feng, you still owe me money!" Wang Cheng suddenly reminded him.

"Brother Cheng, I know!" Luo Feng gave a wry smile. Three hundred billion was a huge sum; he certainly couldn't forget it!

PS: Thanks to "The Beginning of Legend" for the reward. I've been busy with my old book these past two days. I'll add more updates in a couple of days!
