These old fellows really liked Lin Feng.
He did not know whether it was because of Wild Fox Zen.
Or because the game console attracted them.
Before he had gotten the game console, when he could not see these old fellows.
Had they existed then?
Lin Feng did not know. He had not studied Wang Yangming's philosophy of the mind, after all: If I see you, you exist; if I cannot see you, you disappear.
But.
These old fellows all had special "feelings" for Lin Feng. That much was certain.
They could not bear to leave him, and their presence put no pressure on him.
They were too weak.
Unlike the ones in stories, they did not fear sunlight, so they had one less weakness.
Also unlike the ones in stories, they were not frightening at all.
They had no destructive power, which meant they had no advantages either.
Invisible, unable to touch people, unable to harm the material world.
Let alone hunt people down for their lives, ambush travelers, or attack people in their dreams.
They could not even scare the old man at the general store.
So far, the old fellows and ladies Lin Feng had seen outside the game.
Could not match a cat in combat.
Absurdly weak.
Only when they gathered together.
Did they pose even a slight threat.
Insignificant nobodies drifting outside the world.
They could not speak or communicate.
Under those circumstances, he did not need Dragon-Tiger Qi. He could snap off a willow switch nearby and beat them into a panicked rout.
Whenever they encountered adult men or women with robust vitality, they instinctively kept their distance.
Hah. Embarrassing.
Lin Feng planned to use them to test the waters.
After all, even if these things turned on their master, there was only so
