During this process, a large number of vested interests were born, who would also prevent any forces from destroying the existing system and situation.
However, the premise for doing so is that Oasis Town will always remain in a state of safety, bearing the Holy See’s banner, and won’t be invaded by external forces...
But once encountering tough enemies, forcibly plundering or even attacking Oasis Town, the issues arising from this model will be completely exposed.
At this mont, Oasis Town’s Five Major Villages, including the Oasis Church itself, cannot even muster up more than two thousand combat-capable Evolvers.
But such a situation is also Lin Feng’s opportunity; otherwise, how can he carve out a large piece of at to eat from the hands of the vested interests before him?
Looking at Rong Yan, who ca to greet him, Lin Feng casually tucked the remote control for Rong Xuan’s collar into his clothes, then stepped forward.
Today’s Rong Yan, as the manager of the canteen, wasn’t dressed as enchantingly as last ti, wearing only a very plain white shirt paired with fitted trousers, vaguely outlining her figure’s curves.
However, after realizing that the young man didn’t have much interest in that regard, Rong Yan also knew she couldn’t exchange herself for more benefits.
So she simply abandoned this notion, turning more business-like, addressing matters as they were.
Upon seeing her son Rong Xuan return complete, she still showed a hint of joy, relieved with a deep breath.
Then, with a characteristic professional smile on her face, she enthusiastically opened the door for Lin Feng, saying:
"Thank you, Governor Lin, for saving my son!"
Lin Feng returned a polite smile, then looked up to gesture for her to enter to speak.
Rong Yan imdiately understood, stepped aside slightly, and leaned slightly forward:
"I’ve already arranged a night feast for you, still the sa dishes as last ti, please follow ."
Lin Feng nodded, then spoke to Rong Xuan standing behind him:
"Go wash up and take a rest, rember not to damage the thing on your neck, or there’s a risk of automatic activation."
Hearing Lin Feng’s command, Rong Xuan imdiately felt relieved, but the following two sentences instantly made him tense up, his expression turning pale.
The greeting Rong Yan also paused, quickly turning to look at her son behind, only to discover that inside his raised collar, there was a concealed silver collar and several indicators flashing red and green lights.
At a glance, it was so high-tech gadget capable of controlling the wearer.
Just as Rong Yan predicted, this electronic collar housed over fifty grams of TNT explosives, the explosive power enough to destroy a twenty-centiter-thick reinforced concrete pole, not to ntion a bare flesh and blood neck.
Even a strong Tier Two Evolver, when fitted with an electronic collar, would not dare to act rashly. Once the detonator inside is triggered, it would explode with a high-energy explosive comparable to the power of a grenade...
On such an extrely fragile and fatal part of the neck, there is a very high probability of dying on the spot, even if armored, one would be severely injured.
Although a Tier Two Evolver possesses formidable life force, with the self-healing speed of the wound being visible to the naked eye, they cannot achieve regrowing a severed head.
Unless one reaches the Third Stage and becos an existence far beyond ordinary life forms’ scope, there’s a possibility of reattaching a fallen head by utilizing radiation energy to continue control.
Therefore, this electronic collar used specifically to control Evolvers is also known as Death’s Grip, like an invisible hand tightly clutching a person’s neck, making resistance impossible.
Many high-ranking Slave Masters or leaders of Settlent forces use this thod to control their disobedient Evolvers or high-tier enemy captives, treating them as slaves.
As for Oasis Town, besides the Upper District’s wealth, the rest here doesn’t qualify to use such high-end ruthless goods.
After all, the cost of a single electronic collar consus several hundred points, and its selling price is no less than one thousand points, so only an Evolver is worthy of using it.
At this mont, seeing her son carrying such an extrely dangerous item, Rong Yan’s face also turned white, her smile instantly freezing.
If this electronic collar explodes at this mont, even she would be affected at such close range, pierced into a sieve by the fragnts.
Seeing the two of them frozen, Lin Feng glanced back at Rong Xuan, who was being watched, shivered imdiately, quickly getting up to leave.
Following his mother’s subordinates, the canteen staff, to the dormitory area behind the kitchen for cleaning.
Before leaving, he didn’t forget to squeeze out a smile, showing a pleading expression to Rong Yan, indicating that she must save him.
And when Rong Yan ca back to her senses, she imdiately followed half a body behind Lin Feng, glancing sideways at this young man as her mind raced with countless thoughts...
In fact, from what just happened, if Lin Feng hadn’t pointed it out, Rong Yan would never have expected her son would be fitted with such an item.
After all, because what she asked Lin Feng to do earlier was just to get her son Rong Xuan out of the prison cage where the church held prisoners.
Rong Xuan didn’t directly participate in that night’s operation, he rely joined their so-called resistance organization. Though he was a mber, the cri was not to the point of death.
Since all plans had not yet been enacted, a little indulgence of power to pull soone out of jail was not a problem.
Back then, the only willing person to help Rong Yan, possessing such indulgence ability, was the newly-won Tier Two Powerhouse drawn by the church, who was valued by the church’s higher-ups and also the new Governor of Oasis.
Although he’s just an acting one, his status and that of the Priest far surpasses the likes of Rong Yan, who is part of the Late Tier One managent, able to speak with weight in the church, which was known for its impartiality and resistance to pleas.
Thus Rong Yan spared no expense to entertain Lin Feng through Li Mingquan’s introduction, begging him to save her son.
It’s just the current problem is, although the person has been returned, it seems they haven’t been completely saved.
Because Rong Xuan is still wearing an extrely dangerous collar.
This indicates he hasn’t regained his Upper Class status.
But instead, he’s beco Lin Feng’s belonging.
Which ans the Oasis Church not only stripped his Upper Class status but also handed him over to Lin Feng, making him the private property of the young man in front of her.
Rong Yan, worthy of being a self-made businesswoman, quickly grasped the distinction within.
And after figuring it out, her previous worry and fear disappeared instantly; instead, she beca even more excited.
Because this newly appointed Honorary Governor obviously speaks more easily than the Oasis Church.
As long as she offers a high enough price, freeing a person wouldn’t be as troubleso as before.
After all, if it were just leaving the prison to restore Rong Xuan to his original Upper Class status, it’d only prevent his death temporarily.
Because all Upper Class mbers of Oasis Town still have to face an unpredictable future.
The local gentry represented by the Li Family and the Oasis Church’s struggle continues, and with the news spreading widely in the Oasis about Li Mingquan’s complete disappearance in the arena fight...
Everyone knows, even if the Church does not want to engage in intense direct conflict, the situation has escalated with Li Mingquan’s death.
The upcoming arena fights will have both sides fighting tooth and nail to win, even resorting to unscrupulous ans.
And this will directly impact the future fate of over two thousand Upper Class mbers in the Upper District.
For Rong Yan, she naturally hopes to continue maintaining the Upper District, so she can siphon off the resources of Evolutionary at on a large scale through the canteen.
However, with the situation escalating now, she has detected signs of danger.
Staying on might also embroil her in this conflict too, considering even Li Mingquan could die miserably, a Late Stage Evolver like her, with no battle experience, might fall without a chance.
Therefore, she is thinking of avoiding disaster, leaving Oasis Town, which is becoming the center of the vortex.
With her accumulated wealth and her only two family mbers, to escape from here and make a living in the Holy City.
But because of the Upper Class identity, unable to leave the Upper District’s iron rule, Rong Yan has been waiting for an opportunity.
To take away her son and daughter.
Now, the opportunity is in front of her!
But she knows well that Lin Feng won’t easily relent.
She needs to show enough sincerity to impress him!
