At the same moment, Gu Lingchuan had just stepped out of the fantasy world that Gu Lingxiao had originally acquired through resource exchange to raise giant dragons.
He looked slightly tired, but his eyes shone with satisfaction.
At this moment, a considerable number of primal super-energy crystals appeared on his body.
Unlike Gu Lingxiao, who often chooses to trade and exchange super-energy crystals produced by evolved creatures, Gu Lingchuan takes a different approach, cleverly using information asymmetry to earn the resources he needs.
It must be said that compared to Gu Lingxiao's straightforward method, Gu Lingchuan's initial speed in earning super energy crystals was indeed relatively slow.
However, at this stage, he only needs to earn enough energy crystals to travel to the chaotic regions; the required quantity is not particularly large.
During his conversation with the dragon knights, an interesting piece of news caught Gu Lingchuan's attention—it turned out that a T9527 from the Mechanical Kingdom had visited this place before.
Surprisingly, this visitor's purpose was exactly the same as Gu Lingchuan's: to replenish energy.
Moreover, according to the description, even their physical appearances are strikingly similar.
A strong intuition suddenly surged in Bai Ling's heart, a feeling like a lightning bolt flashing through her mind—that T9527 was definitely Gu Lingxiao in disguise!
At the same time, the information that Gu Lingchuan deciphered using his powerful mental abilities also unequivocally confirmed this conjecture.
At this moment, a subordinate asked the Knight Commander with a puzzled look: "Knight Commander, don't you think this is too much of a coincidence? Three T1 level mechanical creatures have arrived in such a short time, and they all came here to replenish their energy."
Faced with his subordinates' questions, the knight commander seemed unconcerned and casually replied, "Don't worry about it, it won't do us any harm anyway."
Besides, I'd love for this to happen more often!
Indeed, the last time these mechanical creatures arrived, the Knight Commander made a fortune, and the information obtained this time is equally valuable.
As for Ke Tuo and the others, after spending some time with Gu Lingchuan and Bai Ling, they had long since gotten used to it.
After all, both of them had very gentle and friendly personalities, and as everyone gradually came to believe that Gu Lingchuan was not that terrifying killing god, their fear gradually dissipated, and they were no longer as restrained and cautious as they had been at the beginning.
However, this discovery gave rise to some thoughts that shouldn't exist in their minds.
These two mysterious and unpredictable creatures bear a striking resemblance to that fearsome god of death! Moreover, they seem to be desperately searching for the god of death's whereabouts as well.
Based on this deduction, a bold and insidious plan gradually took shape in their minds: why not try to lure these two unknown creatures back to their base camp? There, many powerful members of their own kind were gathered, and once they succeeded, they could easily capture them.
Then, we can thoroughly investigate the intricate connections between this god of death and them. If these unknown creatures are indeed vital kin to that god of death, then for the enemy who once drove them to their doom, this would be an excellent opportunity for revenge.
They might even receive a generous reward from the king, leading to a meteoric rise in their careers.
Even if that's not the case, such a unique and unusual creature would likely fetch a considerable price on the market.
Especially the female creature; its mere ornamental value would likely attract numerous wealthy individuals vying to purchase it. After all, rarity increases value!
It should be noted that they were originally a group of notorious bandits, but later, for various reasons, they chose to settle here and gradually restrained their previous banditry.
But now, faced with such tempting profits, the evil lurking deep within his heart has begun to stir again...
The key reason they dared to act so arrogantly was that the strength displayed by Gu Lingxiao and Bai Ling was indeed too weak.
Admittedly, Gu Lingxiao and Bai Ling are slightly better than these people, but when compared with the truly strong members of their own clan, there is a significant gap between them.
At that very moment, just as Koto was racking his brains to figure out if his plan was feasible, a deep and intimidating voice suddenly rang out behind him: "What are you thinking about?" This sudden voice was like a heavy hammer, striking Koto's heart hard, making him tremble violently and almost jump up in fright.
Koto turned his head cautiously, and what came into view was Gu Lingchuan with a half-smile on his face.
Koto quickly forced a genuine smile onto his face and stammered, "N-nothing! I was just wondering how long it would take us to reach that legendary chaotic region."
Upon hearing this, Gu Lingchuan couldn't help but chuckle softly, a chuckle that seemed to carry a hint of knowing everything.
Immediately afterwards, a flood of important information rushed into Gu Lingchuan's mind.
After a moment, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly and slowly said, "Oh? Is that really the case? Then let me tell you solemnly—that so-called 'God of Slaughter' that you talk about all day long and are terrified of is actually my own younger brother."
So don't waste your time figuring out how to lure us back to your lair, then use your powerful kin to capture us and torture us for information.
Because such petty tricks simply won't work on me!
Gu Lingchuan's deep and magnetic voice rang out, like a thunderclap piercing the sky. All the creatures present were attracted by this sudden voice, and their eyes were drawn to Gu Lingchuan's tall and straight figure as if drawn by a magnet.
Especially Koto, whose originally calm eyes now revealed an undisguised look of horror.
His eyes widened, staring at Gu Lingchuan in astonishment, his lips trembling slightly. He subconsciously asked, "You... how did you know?" However, as soon as the words slipped out of his mouth, he realized as if waking from a dream that he had made a fatal mistake—he had let the cat out of the bag so easily!
In that instant, Koto's face turned ashen, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.
He had a bad feeling and wanted to try to escape.
But Gu Lingchuan interrupted him.
Koto felt an invisible pressure suddenly descend upon him, rendering him unable to move, making it difficult to even breathe, and even tightly binding all the frogmen around him.
