Chapter 77 Merchant
Lin Lee was extremely surprised after observing all the functions, muttering thoughtfully, "I didn\'t expect that immortal civilization would have such an effect on my nanobots; I can feel it; somehow my nanobots may even rival my bead spirit in the future."
"Well, I will test them later. Also, after reaching 10th-order immortality, I will visit the other lower worlds," Lin Lee muttered, nodding thoughtfully. Because 10th-order immortality is the ceiling realm in any lower world below the immortal domain, above them is the existence of the Great Immortal; that kind of existence isn\'t allowed in the lower world because of their unimaginable prowess.
\'Great Immortal, three-line combination law, can disrupt the lower world\'s rules and regulations; that\'s why they aren\'t allowed.\' Eero thought to himself,
Just as Lin Lee was thinking about something, his ear shook. He heard some movement from the desert around him at a considerable distance.
Lin Lee glanced around, looking at sand and dust floating around in different places. Something was moving underground toward the crater, produced by his mana drop.
After a while, a lot of things emerged out of the sand, revealing huge, pitch-black scorpion-shaped monsters with multiple tails and pointy, hideous purple stings.
Lin Lee observed the desert monsters, then glanced at the humanoid creatures standing on these monsters\' bodies, looking at their appearance, their covered bodies with scaly armor, and clothes made from some unknown monster skin. As his gaze passed through their clothes, he observed their body structure.
\'A true desert race that doesn\'t depend on water,\' Lin Lee thought in amazement, looking at their bodies structure without any blood, instead just dense muscles, ribs, and exoskeleton attached to each other with unknown fluid that looks like dark crude oil. If it weren\'t for muscles and exoskeletons, he would declare them robots.
"~~~~~~~~~~," one of the desert creatures spoke in an unknown language, looking at the boat and Lin Lee above.
Then all of them sat down on their knees and raised their clasped arms above their heads.
Lin Lee glanced at them strangely, looking at their gestures. \'Their salutes are different from human races.\' He then glanced at the leader among them, who spoke before asking telepathically, "What do you want?"
Instantly, the desert tribe leader was shocked. "~~~~~~~" He shouted anxiously, looking around, then glanced at Lin Lee above. He hesitated, then asked,
"Have you spoken to me, my lord?"
Lin Lee became speechless and understood his words, sensing his thoughts telepathically. Then Lin Lee shook his head and replied, "I am not your lord; just tell me, why are you here?"
The tribe leader was surprised to see Lin Lee talking to him in his mind, standing on the boat above, then stood up and shouted, looking at his companions, "You all stand up; he is not our lord."
Looking at his companions standing one by one, then the leader glanced at Lin Lee above the boat and replied, "We are here to find the cause of the desert cry; we heard it\'s wailing; can you tell us? Was it you who injured our desert?" His expression became solemn as he looked at Lin Lee.
Lin Lee startled, then nodded and replied, "Indeed, it was me, but I didn\'t mean to; it happened because I just broke through and wanted to test my powers."
"You are saying it was an accident; if you didn\'t injure the desert on purpose, then it doesn\'t matter; we will explain to the desert lord\'s, and they will definitely forgive you." The tribe leader replied, looking at him solemnly,
Lin Lee became speechless. \'This guy believed me just like that? Is he really that innocent? Also, who are the desert lords, and who will forgive me?\'
The tribe leader signaled and grabbed the two dark tentacles on the back of the desert monster, and then instantly the monster shook, creaked, emitted sharp noise, and shoved inside the sand, and the other companions around him also shoved and disappeared in the desert. Lin Lee became confused and saw through the sand, looking at them as they moved toward the depths of the desert. \'Their traveling routes are so hidden. What are they hiding from?\'
Instantly, a huge, sharp noise sounded, and a dark shadow appeared above his boat. Lin Lee glanced at the bird-shaped monster flying above. It\'s dark brown with wide wings spanning a few hundred meters. It looks like a vulture with dangerous barbs and a sharp, long, golden beak. There are other monsters floating behind him.
"So they were running and hiding from these birds." Lin Lee muttered thoughtfully and raised his hand. Instantaneously, a huge invisible hand appeared and grabbed the monster bird, which was keeping an eye on him and going to attack him. It was instantly grabbed by his mana palm like a small chicken.
Instantly, other monster birds around were frightened, hurriedly scattered, and flew away in different directions.
Lin Lee glanced at the bird in his mana hand; it was struggling and creaking painfully. He clenched his fist, instantly compressed it into meat paste, then dispersed his mana hand thoughtfully. \'A monster lord\'s equals to a human holy lord\'s; indeed, they are dangerous for those desert creatures.\' n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lin Lee then moved the boat forward toward the deep desert, passing through different underground labyrinths where different desert tribes lived. After a while, he glanced at the huge infrastructure in front of him—huge stone buildings and pathways. Different types of creatures are living and moving inside; there are also creatures with eagle-shaped faces, wolf-shaped faces, and other animals with thin fur and different claws and feet than the human race, but all of them are humanoid.
Looking at the few wooden boats with huge golden wings floating above the desert toward this kingdom, Lin Lee then followed them and landed on the empty area inside the boundary. Landing on the ground, he shrank and put away the boat, amidst the shocked expressions of everyone around. Then everyone\'s faces changed, and they hurriedly bowed and got aside, leaving the way open for him. Some started whispering among them.
Lin Lee was confused, looking at them. Instantaneously, he heard a noise from far away. A humanoid wolf-shaped creature ran and appeared in front of him with a golden cup filled with a light blue liquid. He offered and spoke in his language, similar to the monster\'s riders before.
"My Lord, drink it." He spoke respectfully.
Lin Lee glanced at the liquid and felt a light spiritual aroma, then glanced at the anticipated expression on the brown wolf-like face of this creature.
Lin Lee grabbed it and drank it up. Instantly, his eyes lit up, feeling like he had drank mint juice. His soul was also refreshed with a new memory language introduced in his mind.
"My Lord, can you understand me? Are you from outside?" The wolf creature who offered the spiritual liquid asked suddenly,
Lin Lee was surprised; he learned the language spoken by him, and there are a lot of other desert language words he knows now; even the wisphers of the surrounding spectators can understand them.
Lin Lee then nodded, glanced at him, and replied, "I can understand you now. Thank you. Also, I am indeed from outside the desert."
"My Lord, I am San Lu, from the desert wolf tribe. I am a desert merchant in this great dragon desert. If you have anything to sell from outside the desert, you can sell it to me. I will offer you the best price. You can buy anything from me." He hurriedly spoke and happily introduced himself, rubbing his claw-shaped hand\'s embarrassed. Lin Lee became speechless. \'So this guy is a merchant, and those others also.\' Then he glanced at other merchants standing far away, looking at them sneakily. \'Although they are merchants, they are quite decent; they all didn\'t jump on me at once.\' Lin Lee thought funnily, recalling previous life salesman\'s.
Lin Lee thought, then nodded at San Lu, "Well, let\'s go to your place; I really have something to sell and buy."
