Swallowing the Stars: Cultivate to Become Stronger.

Chapter 28 Heart-to-Heart Talk!

three days later.

Entrance to the Southeast Military Region Supply Base.

"The Firehammer Squad?"

The officer at the door glanced curiously at the large backpack on Luo Shen's back and chuckled, "Your captain Gao Feng came back with a big backpack a while ago, and Luo Feng yesterday and you today are the same. It seems your Fire Hammer Squad has reaped a lot of rewards."

"Has Luo Feng returned?" Luo Shen wondered to himself.

But she still replied with a smile, "Our captain said we have to fill our backpacks before we come back. By the way, which building is my senior brother in now?"

"E3, here's the key."

The officer chuckled, "It seems Gao Feng is still the best at leading troops."

"Thank you." Luo Shen took the keys.

He politely declined the other party's offer to take the monster materials from his backpack and headed straight into the supply base.

Those who frequent these supply bases are usually small-time traders with relatively weak financial resources and limited distribution channels. They simply don't have the capacity to handle the large shipments in his backpack.

Even if we could barely manage to buy it, we wouldn't be able to sell it for a good price. There's no need to waste time here; we should wait until we get back to the main city before making a move.

Luo Shen found the detached villa at E3.

When the door opened, Luo Feng was already lying on the sofa.

"Why are you so late? I've been waiting for you for ages." Luo Feng sat up straight, stretched, and teased Luo Shen, glancing at the large backpack on his back. "Did you go shopping for goods?"

Seeing that Luo Feng's expression was normal, they knew that he had recovered.

He didn't say anything.

I closed the door and put my backpack on the ground.

"Thump!" The backpack made a heavy sound on the ground, attracting Luo Feng's attention.

"Senior brother, would you like to see what I've accomplished lately?"

While asking questions, Luo Shen had already opened his backpack, revealing the full fur of a high-level beast general, the Earth Brown Bear, along with its paws, head, and other parts, placed on top.

"A Great Brown Bear, and a high-level Beast General at that!"

Luo Feng gasped, "How did you do that, kid?"

As he spoke, Luo Feng looked Luo Shen up and down several times.

A single-handedly defeating a high-level beast general-level monster!?

They had only been apart for a little over ten days, but Luo Shen seemed like a completely different person all of a sudden. Even before they parted, Luo Shen wasn't this amazing!

Luo Shen didn't say anything, but just smiled and opened the backpack even wider.

Luo Feng glanced casually through the open opening of his backpack and couldn't look away. He kept muttering, "Bloodthirsty Tank, Silver Moon Wolf, holy crap, what's this? Fire Scale Trident Boar, and it's even a low-level lord-level one!?"

Luo Feng was completely shocked!

Despite having anticipated Luo Shen's talent, Luo Feng was still so shocked that he was speechless.

Just over two months ago, Luo Shen became a quasi-martial artist right under his nose. Not long ago, Luo Shen even went out with him to hunt monsters and hone his swordsmanship.

Unbeknownst to him, Luo Shen was already capable of hunting down a low-level lord-level Firescale Trident Boar on his own!

Lord-level monster!

That's equivalent to a human war god, a powerful being who can face a hail of bullets head-on and remain unscathed!

Indeed, the new generation surpasses the old!

He thought he had gotten away with stealing the dragon egg and bringing back a set of high-level weapons and combat clothes, which was quite a great success. But it turns out that Luo Shen's gains were equally impressive.

Even if he were to use a throwing knife now, he might not be able to defeat Luo Shen.

"Senior, how did your chat with Senior Xu Xin go last night?" Luo Shen resealed his backpack.

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng finally remembered his real purpose in seeking out Luo Shen. It was all Luo Shen's fault; he unleashed a powerful move as soon as he entered, leaving Luo Feng completely stunned and almost forgetting his business.

Seeing that Luo Feng remained silent and kept staring at him, Luo Shen felt a chill run down his spine.

"Senior, I admit I lied, but at least the result was good, right? I helped you and the senior sister get together, and you not only didn't treat me to a meal, but you also stared at me like that, which made me feel uneasy."

Luo Shen pretended to be scared.

"You know that, don't you?" Luo Feng said abruptly.

Seeing that Luo Feng was getting down to business, Luo Shen stopped pretending and straightened his back.

Although the sentence seemed abrupt, Luo Shen immediately knew that Luo Feng was referring to Li Wei, so he smiled faintly and said, "Whether I know or not is irrelevant. All I know is that you are my senior brother!"

"Never been tempted?"

Having understood the meaning behind Luo Shen's words, Luo Feng gradually relaxed.

"I may be poor, but I'm not poor in spirit. I can still tell which side is closer to me, and I won't take what isn't mine." Luo Shen looked at Luo Feng and smiled, "Compared to those things, I'm more concerned about what you and Senior Xu Xin talked about last night."

Luo Feng gave Luo Shen a deep look.

Although their conversation may seem like a cryptic exchange, they actually addressed what could have been a source of conflict between them.

The phrase "never tempted" was actually Luo Feng asking Luo Shen if he had ever considered reporting him to exchange for the 100 billion, and Luo Shen's answer was telling Luo Feng that he would not do such a thing.

As for changing the subject, it was also to tell Luo Feng that he did not intend to secretly record evidence.

Click till.

Everyone should know what's going on.

However, after this incident, their relationship progressed rapidly. If their relationship before was more like that of brothers who were fellow disciples, now they are more like best buddies who have dated each other.

They spoke much more relaxed.

***********

Jiangnan Railway Station.

This is always the liveliest place, with huge crowds gathering and the noisy, boiling sound is like a drop of water falling into a pot of boiling oil, instantly causing it to explode.

The train pulled into the station, the doors opened, and a large number of passengers filed out.

"HR Alliance Building"

Instead of going home first, the two took the Extreme Martial Arts Academy's shuttle bus to the HR Alliance Building.

Luo Shen needs to sell these monster materials. Among the many forces, the HR Alliance always offers the highest price, so he will definitely prioritize selling to the HR Alliance.

As for the Limitless Martial Arts School...

Although selling monster materials to martial arts schools would yield a large number of contribution points, both the A7 model battle sword that Luo Shen wanted to buy and the fifth level of the Nine-Fold Thunder Sword required at least three-star contribution points, and the monster materials he had on hand were simply not enough.

Arrived at the HR Alliance Building.

There were staff members waiting at the entrance, and as soon as the two got out of the car, they were escorted directly into the elevator.

Go straight up to the 21st floor!

Before arriving, Luo Feng had already contacted Manager Fang, with whom he had previously collaborated.

Of course, one account manager couldn't handle all of Luo Shen's orders, so Luo Feng specifically told Manager Fang that they needed at least two more helpers to take on all of their orders.

As soon as Luo Shen stepped out of the elevator, he saw a huge lounge.

Outside the elevator, three account managers in suits were already standing. The bald, round-faced old man in the middle smiled at the two and said, "Luo Feng, we meet again."

Luo Feng, standing beside him, smiled and pointed at Luo Shen, saying, "The main character this time is my junior brother; I'm just accompanying him."

The round-faced old man gave an "oh," looked at Luo Shen with considerable surprise, and laughed, "Indeed, heroes emerge from among the young. I, old Fang, have been blind to your greatness. May I ask your name, sir?"

"Just call me Luo Shen." Luo Shen waved his hand.

He has never been fond of these formalities and prefers to complete the transaction as soon as possible.

"Come, let's talk in my office." The round-faced old man clearly saw that Luo Shen didn't like this approach, so he directly invited the two of them into his office to discuss the matter in detail.

"Okay!" Luo Shen nodded.

The group followed them into the office.
