Chapter 22 - 20: Lin Duozi_1
But that wasnt the end. With the booming sound, the next moment, a dense white mist miraculously appeared around the Token and swiftly spread in all directions. In the blink of an eye, it formed a large square-shaped isolated area, about two hundred square meters in size.
A miracle! A miracle! Lord Willow God is unrivaled in the world.
This divine phenomenon rendered everyone present speechless. Someone started to shout Lord Willow Gods name and, in an instant, it turned into a wave-like chorus.
These four words were sacred and inviolable to them. Everyones expression showed a mix of fervor and zealotry. Those unaware of the context might assume that some heretical organization was at play here.
Of course, if anyone dared to speak these words, they would be instantly beaten up by Lin Zhuang, Lin Chen, and others.
The chanting gradually faded, but peoples excitement still lingered. No need to mention anything else, the range covered by the mist had increased nearly ten-fold compared to the original treehouse. They all seemed to imagine how enormously comfortable it would be to live in such a spacious place.
Old man Lin shared the same excitement. He was no stranger to the wooden and stone houses in the village. He was tired of living under tree roots but building a house required craftsmanship. If built recklessly, the house would be unstable and possibly leaky, making it less secure than living underground.
Seizing the moment, Old man Lin didnt idle. He buried the remaining Junior House Construction Orders one by one into the dug pits.
All five orders will turn into grand houses after two hours. Although he doesnt know what the final products will look like, Old man Lin was already daydreaming about it.
After a long while, he retrieved his thoughts and took out the remaining
Inferior Dragon Elephant Strength Pills from his hand.
Originally there were seven pills, but he had given two to Lin Chen, leaving only five.
In Old man Lins view, these were the real treasures.
The quality of the dwelling place was secondary, strength was the constant and ultimate guarantee in this world. Whats the use of having the best things if you cant protect them?
-Whats the rush for a house? It will take at least two hours, and considering its size, therell certainly be room enough for all of you youngsters. Rest assured, everyone will get a share. However, that may not be the case with this pill. Old man Lin carefully rubbed the Inferior Dragon Elephant Strength Pill in his hand Noticing that everyones attention was nearly entirely focused on the area enveloped by the white mist, he couldnt help but chuckle and grumble.
Father, Ive already eaten two of those pills. Whats so precious about them? Lin Chen turned and asked dismissively, of course, trying to show off more than anything else.
No doubt, as soon as he said this, including Lin Zhuang, everyone turned to look at Old man Lin unfavorably.
Playing favorites much, old man?
Whats the matter? Old man Lin laughed bitterly, giving his second son a hard stare.
Father, whats so great about this black pill? Cant everyone get a share? Lin Zhuang, being the eldest, was the first to question.
First of all, there are only five left, so theres not enough to go around. Additionally, and most importantly, this is a divine medicine. Eating one pill can increase your strength by twenty thousand jin.
Although he knew there was no chance of outsiders hearing this, the old man still deliberately lowered his voice.
The Dragon Elephant Strength Pill was far too precious. No harm in not knowing what it does, but if they found out, he feared enemies might suddenly appear to steal it.
What?! One pill can increase strength by twenty thousand jin?!
Before Lin Zhuang and others could respond, a sharp exclamation echoed through the area.
It was Lin Chen, the second son of the Lin Family, his eyes, ordinarily not too large, were now widened as big as a cow s eyes.
All he felt after eating them was a slight heat in his body, no other changes?! You sneaky child, feel happy about it! This thing is incredibly valuable. Lord Willow God said it himself; just one pill could suddenly boost ones strength by twenty thousand jin. Youve taken two, thats a whopping forty thousand jin. Old man Lin glanced at his younger son, clutched his chest, the sudden shock almost took his breath away.
Lin Chen opened his mouth, but instead of speaking, he rushed hurriedly to a colossal boulder, approximately five to six meters in size.
He had tried to weigh the stone before, but even using all his strength, he could only slightly move it.
Second Eldest Son of the Lin Family rubbed his hands together and quickly walked towards the rock.
He was majestic, over eight feet tall, with a bearish waist and tigerish back. He was robust and strong, his chest high and firm like an iron pillar. Even compared to Lin Zhuang, he was not at all inferior.
Lift!
He took a deep breath.
Lin Chen shouted softly, his legs braced in Big Ma Golden Knife stance, his mouth strained, his arms grabbing the rock suddenly exerted their strength, and his arms, like iron tongs, suddenly bulged with veins.
Eeeeeekkk-
With the mad infusion of strength, the giant rock, which had been immovable, suddenly gave out a series of dull noises. In the next moment, it was actually lifted off the ground under the astonished gaze of the crowd.
Particularly Lin Zhuang, his face was almost entirely revealed with the color of horror.
That giant rock weighed almost forty-five thousand catties, even he couldnt dream of moving it.
But now, after eating just two black pills granted by Lord Willow God, the Second Brother had actually lifted it, and judging by his expression, he still seemed to have surplus strength.
Lin Zhuang sucked in his breath at the unprecedented sense of urgency flashing through his heart, and his gaze was instantly burning hot as he looked at the old man Lins hand.
As the first one to follow Lord Willow Gods footsteps, he couldnt be caught up by his own little brother.
Father, could you also give me a few to taste? He quickly walked over to Old Man Lin, Lin Zhuang murmured.
If he remembered correctly, his little brother had just said that he had two. Father has always seen your efforts, you deserve more. Old man Lin smiled kindly, and took two of the remaining five Inferior Dragon Elephant Strength Pills, and gave them to Lin Zhuang.
Lin Zhuang was overjoyed and quickly took them. He then swallowed them directly without even drinking any water.
Once his body was enveloped in warmth, Lin Zhuang shook his head and walked in front of the giant rock as well.
Clatter.
The huge rock moved again, this time even more easily than Lin Chen.
Phew- Feeling the immense power emanating from his body, Lin Zhuang now completely believed.
Lord Willow God was indeed extraordinary. A few little rewards he casually gives out were so terrifying if he gave out a few more, wouldnt he be able to create an unusually powerful person out of thin air?!
Father, can you give me one more? Lin Chen came over at some point, licking his big face and asked.
Two Inferior Dragon Elephant Strength Pills gave him a big taste of sweetness, and he wanted another one to taste.
Beat it, brat. Old man Lin gave Lin Chen a stern look.
Okay, father. Lin Chen smiled awkwardly and decisively retreated to the side. There are three left, Third Sister, you and the rest of them split them up, half each. Old man Lin looked towards his third child.
She was a graceful girl named Lin Rong, seventeen or eighteen this year, the prime of her life.
Her eyes were bright, clear, and full of youthful energy. Although her appearance was not extremely beautiful, her natural temperament was something the few girls Jiang Hui knew from his previous life couldnt match..
