Loot and New Companions

Mu Fengyu kicked the door open with a snake-skin bag slung over his shoulder. The dilapidated wooden door shattered into countless fragments, scattering in all directions and kicking up a cloud of dust. He laughed and said to Momonga.

"Momonga, you really are the worm in my stomach."

The companions were startled by the sudden, thunderous crash, their hearts seemingly skipping a beat. Once they realized it was Mu Fengyu, expressions of concern immediately appeared on their faces.

"Mu Feng, you guy, can't you be a little less rough!"

Bukubukuchagama stood with her hands on her hips, her brows furrowed in a scolding manner. Mu Fengyu merely waved his hand dismissively, acting as if he didn't care at all.

"How could this broken door ever stop me? I was just in a hurry to come in and share the good news with you all."

Momonga hurried forward, his eyes filled with anxiety and worry as he looked him up and down.

"Are you hurt? What's the situation inside? We were worried sick out here."

Mu Feng threw the snake-skin bag onto the ground with a heavy thud, then brushed the dust off his body, speaking with a relaxed expression.

"Relax, I'm perfectly fine! Those guys from Tears of Angels were no match for me at all. I was like a fish in water in there, beating them until they had no power to fight back."

Touch Me looked at the shattered remains of the door and shook his head helplessly, sighing.

"Yu, can't you just enter normally? You always have to make such a scene. It's like this every time; can't you be a bit more steady?"

Mu Feng grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and laughed.

"That's what gives it presence! If I just opened the door and walked in slowly, how boring would that be? It wouldn't show off my majesty at all."

Peroroncino couldn't wait to crowd over, his eyes sparkling with curiosity as he asked.

"Tell us quickly, was the battle intense? Did you run into any particularly powerful opponents?"

Mu Feng looked smug, gesturing vividly as he spoke.

"Needless to say, the battle was intense. But I handled it with ease. No matter what tricks they pulled, I countered them skillfully. I was like a whirlwind; wherever I went, the enemies fell one after another."

Herohero looked at his confident appearance and said irritably.

"You're so great, but you didn't even consider how worried we were here. We've been on pins and needles, terrified that something might happen to you."

Mu Feng scratched his head in embarrassment, a look of guilt appearing on his face.

"Oh, don't be angry. I'm back safe and sound, aren't I? I know everyone was worried, but I was confident I could handle it, so I didn't tell you in advance."

Bellriver stepped forward and gave him a light punch, pretending to be angry.

"Don't be so reckless next time. Regardless, give us a heads-up so everyone can be prepared."

Mu Feng nodded repeatedly, acting like an obedient child.

"Got it, got it! That was my oversight; I'll definitely be more careful next time."

Nishikienrai looked at the snake-skin bag on the floor and asked curiously.

"What's in there? Don't tell me it's treasure looted from Tears of Angels?"

Mu Feng smiled mysteriously, intentionally keeping them in suspense.

"It's all inventory from Tears of Angels. Why don't you guess what's inside? If you guess right, you can take it directly."

"I bet there's a [Heaven-Supporting God] in there."

"You don't even need to guess that one, do you?"

"Then I bet there's a 'Zhuoyang Gem'."

Peroroncino shouted excitedly, and Mu Fengyu gave him the middle finger.

"You've gone crazy wanting divine-class items, haven't you? Isn't that the only component you're missing to complete your [Houyi Bow]? Do you think I'm a wish-granting machine? Your schemes are practically hitting me in the face."

Bukubukuchagama blinked her eyes and asked curiously.

"Is there a 'Star Guardian Armor'?"

Mu Fengyu paused, then nodded.

"Uh, actually, there is."

Everyone eagerly made their guesses, but unfortunately, no one except Bukubukuchagama got it right. At this moment, Ulbert stepped forward and snatched the snake-skin bag.

"What's the point of guessing back and forth when we're all on the same side? Let me see."

He opened the bag and exclaimed, "Wow! A golden legend!" Upon seeing what was inside, he immediately sealed the bag shut, as if afraid someone might snatch it away.

The other companions curiously crowded around him. When he opened it again, a crimson gem lay quietly inside. Looking closely, it was the World-class item [Thermal Stone] used by Michael.

Seeing this [Thermal Stone], everyone couldn't help but gasp. They exclaimed in shock that to treat a World-class item so casually—this person must not be left alive.

The companions curiously asked Mu Fengyu how he had obtained the [Thermal Stone]. Mu Fengyu cleared his throat and began to recount his heroic deeds in detail.

"At the time, I charged into the core area of Tears of Angels. It was filled with experts, but I didn't retreat in the slightest. I pulled out all the stops, cycling through various skills, and left them dizzy and confused."

"Those guys tried to put up a desperate struggle at first, but under my powerful offensive, they quickly collapsed."

Mu Fengyu spoke with great animation, his hands gesturing in the air unconsciously.

"I fought my way through, straight to where Michael was. That Michael had some skill; we fought for hundreds of rounds. The shockwaves of our battle shook the entire Asgard, but in the end, my skills were superior, and I defeated him."

As Mu Fengyu spoke with such flair, his companions listened with dark expressions. Finally, Peroroncino couldn't help but speak up.

"Brother, honestly, stop bragging. If you keep going, you'll be soloing the Nine-Radiance World Devourer next."

Hearing Peroroncino's words, the smile on Mu Fengyu's face froze, but he stiffened his neck and said.

"How can you call this bragging? Everything I said is the truth!"

The group burst into laughter. Bukubukuchagama stood with her hands on her hips and said with a smile, "Go on, continue your performance."

Mu Fengyu rolled his eyes at them and had no choice but to come clean: the World-class item had been obtained by pulling data from the backend, and the rest had been seized from the treasure vault of Tears of Angels.

Hearing Mu Fengyu's confession, the group was stunned for a moment, then Touch Me smiled helplessly.

"You really don't take the conventional path, do you?"

"Pulling data from the backend isn't exactly something to be proud of. Don't do it again in the future."

Mu Fengyu scratched his head in embarrassment, then said righteously.

"I did it so our guild could grow stronger faster! I promise there won't be a next time."

Bellriver said.

"Since we have the items, let's think about how to use these treasures to improve our strength."

Mu Fengyu nodded in agreement.

"Before we split the loot, I want to introduce someone to you."

As he spoke, he pulled out Siyou Qilong, who had been hiding outside the door. By now, Mu Fengyu had already used a GM item to reset Siyou Qilong's race. As he pulled him out, everyone's gaze focused on him.

His body was now in a cyberpunk style, with rugged metal skeletal lines and an outer shell crafted from high-strength alloy, featuring exquisite textures that emitted a mysterious glow.

There were writhing flesh-and-blood special effects on the exterior of the chassis, flowing and expanding between the metal gaps, forming a stark contrast with the metal. His head was covered by a translucent helmet, his eyes glowing with a ghostly blue light, and the flesh on his face trembled like a heartbeat—mysterious and chilling.

The fusion of metal and flesh at his shoulders and arms was seamless; as he moved, the flesh shifted with the sound of metal friction. His legs were like pillars, the flesh at the joints pulsing with every step, showcasing immense power and stability. He looked like a terrifying warrior from the future, possessing both cold technology and the vitality of life.
