The smoky sll perated the battlefield, lingering for a long ti.
On the ground, tiny spots of light were still nurous.
Lin Yue picked up things among the rotten soil and fragnts of flesh and cloth for a while and finally collected all the Storage Spaces left behind by the beggars.
After counting the total, he discovered that he had managed to gather 108 cubic ters this ti, another great harvest.
Lately, the expansion speed of this Storage Space has been astonishing. Lin Yue even thought that if it continues like this, by the next ti he goes to the Secret Realm, he might be able to bring back an entire house.
Indeed, reaching 1,000 cubic ters in Storage Space doesn’t seem like a dream at all.
The larger the Storage Space, the more things one can do. Although he doesn’t know how big the second largest Storage Space in this world is, he now believes he is leading in this aspect.
Next ti going to the Secret Realm, he can certainly loot to his heart’s content.
The battlefield cleanup was finally over, and Lin Yue saw that the muddy and blood-stained Xiao Liuzi and Red Thread also ran back from the Shelter. They seed quite excited.
The Ice Lizard species appears to be a combination of food lover and battle fanatic, and an enhanced version at that.
Ignoring their incredible evolutionary ability, just the combat power of this juvenile form alone far surpasses ordinary mutant creatures.
After giving the two little guys so food, he turned to look at the chat panel.
Fei Yue had sent dozens of ssages.
"Overlord, thank you for extending a helping hand during our Refugee Village’s crisis! I, Fei Yue, on behalf of all Survivors in the Refugee Village, thank you for saving our lives!!"
"Overlord, we saw that the Lizardn seed to have retreated after the explosion in the rear, thanks for coming to our rescue!"
"Overlord..."
Good grief, is the term ’Overlord’ free or sothing?
Every ssage starts with ’Overlord,’ even though,"
I clearly told him before, to call Lin Yue ’Lin Yue.’ Why is he still calling ’Overlord’ at this point?
However, Fei Yue is not bad.
He didn’t ask about the nature of that huge explosion, nor did he pursue how Lin Yue got here, or inquire about how many Lizardn and beggars he killed.
The screen was almost filled completely with words of thanks.
"Bai, are there no enemies nearby?"
"Gawu." Bai nodded, its voice sounded slightly fatigued.
After a long flight and spraying a large stream of ice fog, Bai was now really tired, and if forced to fly, it might collapse directly.
Thus, for now, he would take a break, then return to the Shelter.
There is indeed one more thing to take care of now.
"Let’s go take a look under Fei Yue’s Refugee Village and say hello to Fei Yue."
Lin Yue, with Bai, Xiao Liuzi, and Red Thread, crossed the battlefield filled with a burnt and foul sll, heading towards the Refugee Village.
Of course, he didn’t forget to wear the Celestial Dragon Armor and Celestial Dragon Battle Helt, naturally, the Exoskeleton was not forgotten either.
It’s always wise to be cautious, even with Fei Yue.
"Fei Yue, I’m coming over to check."
"Lin Yue, no, Overlord! We are waiting for you outside the door!"
Fei Yue agreed very readily.
Lin Yue gazed at the direction of the Refugee Village and started walking.
Soon, he was less than a hundred ters away from that slightly noisy Refugee Village with tens of torches lit, and in the Night Vision Device, a large shadow had already gathered in front of the huge gate of the Refugee Village.
No doubt, that was Fei Yue and his people.
Lin Yue took a few steps forward and looked, at that mont they had no weapons in their hands.
And...
"Overlord!!"
Fei Yue’s voice was loud, he led the group to welco him, and his voice seed quite trembling.
"It’s . Fei Yue, you did... well."
Lin Yue looked around, roughly counting the corpses of the Lizardn, nearly a hundred, and this was just what he saw now, there might be even more in other directions of the wall.
At that point when he used the Blast Crossbow Carriage Arrow to attack the places where the Lizardn and beggars congregated, the Refugee Village had actually already started fighting, and seemingly the battle had lasted for a while.
Now it seems, Fei Yue and his people made good use of the armor, shields, and crossbow arrows, and the blood and sweat of the Lizardn, forcing them not to approach at the walls.
Lin Yue walked forward another ten ters and finally stopped.
"If it weren’t for the Overlord, we wouldn’t have been able to survive tonight. We thank you again for saving our lives!"
Fei Yue led dozens of people, kneeling on one knee, their heads bowed.
Hmm? What’s this about?
"Overlord, you have saved us nurous tis, we wish to beco your most loyal subjects. Please be our true Overlord!"
Good grief.
Here we go again.
"I have no intention in this regard, Fei Yue, I refuse once again. The leader of this Refugee Village is you, I have no desire to take care of the lives of hundreds of people. This battle, you commanded it excellently. I think you are the most suitable leader for the Refugee Village, aren’t you?"
Lin Yue felt that he was speaking quite a lot now.
But if he didn’t clarify and resolve this issue, then troubleso matters would only increase.
His intention was to be the so-called ’lone wolf,’ to do whatever he wanted without concerning himself with others’ thoughts, and not distracted by power, nor exhausted by complex interpersonal relationships, nor consud by intrigue and manipulation.
Instead of wasting ti on being an ’Overlord,’ why not go to a Secret Realm to search for resources, or kill more Lizardn and beggars in Underground Ruins?
Why insist on this ’Overlord’ thing?
Lin Yue felt that he wouldn’t change anyti soon.
Indeed, in this Otherworld, humans can only avoid the fate of annihilation by uniting, by battling terrifying mutant creatures, Lizardn beggars, and even internal divisions.
But that doesn’t conflict with Lin Yue’s pursuit of personal freedom.
They can band together as much as they want. On his side, there’s abundant resources, formidable strength, and stronger companions like Bai; even alone, he can survive in this Otherworld.
And perhaps live better than others.
This ti being an Overlord was originally to facilitate precise trade with Fei Yue’s Refugee Village.
But instead, it was played out in so new ways by Sanye, almost getting him, a young man just out of society, caught up.
No matter how grateful Fei Yue and his group are for him saving them again this ti, his answer is still ’No.’
"I don’t have the qualifications to be a competent leader. If I could have dealt with the captives earlier, then it wouldn’t have..."
"But you successfully utilized the blueprint and blood and sweat I gave you, leading your subjects with strong leadership to slay hundreds of Lizardn, right?"
Fei Yue suddenly froze.
"Overlord, but this doesn’t..."
"I ask you, what about your casualties?" Lin Yue asked softly.
"Zero, we had no casualties, not one, but that’s all due to the crossbow arrows..."
"It’s not all due to the crossbow arrows’ power. Weapons only turn into the strongest ones in the hands of formidable people. Fei Yue, you did well. You led your subjects to earn the achievent of zero casualties in exchange for killing hundreds of Lizardn. Even if I wasn’t in the rear killing those Lizardn and beggars, I believe with your leadership and combat ability, it was just a matter of ti before you’d fend them off. Fei Yue, you’ll be a great leader and a great ally, whereas I..."
Lin Yue spoke, arriving on Bai’s back.
The recovered dragon waited for its master’s command, ready to take off.
"Whereas I am not the type suited to being a leader. I prefer enjoying the role of a ’lone wolf.’ If one day, I grow tired of this lifestyle, I wouldn’t mind becoming the true Overlord!"
The dragon vigorously flapped its wings, soaring into the boundless night sky.
