Chapter 112 At midnight, the gong sounds.
Lin Feng led several hundred of his men to a restaurant in the city.
As a result, there weren't enough seats in the restaurants, so Lin Feng led everyone to several restaurants to order food and drinks to be delivered to the central square.
Two thousand taels of silver wasn't enough; Lin Feng ended up paying out of pocket.
Lin Feng led several hundred people in a feast in the central square.
The other bandits under the leader looked on with envy.
Other leaders wanted to follow suit, but they were reluctant to spend the money, and some didn't even have that much.
The drinking session wasn't in vain; several centurions under Lin Feng pledged their loyalty one after another.
Lin Feng felt that he might be able to turn his bandits against him, which would be a way to give them a way out.
It was already evening after we finished drinking.
All the bandits went back to sleep.
Lin Feng didn't drink alcohol; he wandered around the city alone, recording the map of the bandit city.
He was making plans as he walked.
To start a large fire, you definitely need a lot of kerosene, and if the weather is bad, you need even more kerosene to help it burn.
We need to secretly obtain a batch of kerosene for future use.
The breakthrough point has increased to thirty-five during this period.
Not wanting to let the breakthrough point remain dormant in the system, Lin Feng considered adding more points to the Flying Sword Cloud Piercing Step, aiming to max it out in one go.
Since it's inconvenient to go out of town to hunt, the only option is to find a private room in a restaurant, order a table full of meat dishes, and eat as you go.
Staying out too late can arouse the suspicion of bandits.
When it got to the second watch of the night, Lin Feng immediately went back to rest.
When he got back, Zhao Dadan was already fast asleep, snoring loudly.
Zhao Dadan has been exhausted these past two days and won't recover anytime soon.
Lin Feng sleeps very well; when he wants to sleep, even thunder and rain can't wake him up.
In his past life, he had trouble sleeping because he often worked overtime and had to be available 24/7 to respond to calls from his superiors and clients, which weakened his nerves.
This life is much better; I can sleep until I naturally wake up every day.
……
the next morning.
Lin Feng let his eight centurions lead their respective teams to train on their own, while he went to a restaurant in the city alone.
Lin Feng requested a private room.
He instructed the restaurant to prepare five tables of food in advance, and with a shout, he would have one table served to him.
Lin Feng paid the money, and the restaurant owner didn't ask any questions. He arranged eight tables of food and drink according to Lin Feng's requirements.
Lin Feng first served them a meal.
This banquet was very lavish, with both meat and vegetables.
Everything imaginable—flying creatures, running creatures, swimming creatures—is available, prepared in various ways: braised, steamed, or boiled.
All the restaurant's signature dishes are on the menu; a single table has over thirty dishes.
Before adding any more points, Lin Feng first filled his stomach.
The food at this restaurant is excellent, even better than that of Zuiyuexuan Restaurant in Qinghe County.
Lin Feng first checked the attribute panel.
Name: Lin Feng.
Life: 246.
Faction/Affiliation: Outer periphery of the Sword Sect, Qinghe County, Hemp-Clad Guard, Deputy General.
Martial arts:
……
Flying Sword Cloud Piercing Step (Intermediate Level) (Third Level).
Breakthrough point: 36
Realm: Refined Flesh (Stone Flesh)
Lin Feng first spent four attribute points to upgrade his Flying Sword Cloud Piercing Step to the fourth level, increasing his life attribute by two points, and then ate a whole table of food and drink.
Lin Feng thus advanced one level of the Flying Sword Cloud Piercing Step and finished off a whole table of food and drink.
After each table finished eating, a shout would be given, and the waiter waiting outside would rush in to quickly clear the table and set up the next table for the next meal.
It took a total of 20 breakthrough points to upgrade the Flying Sword Cloud Piercing Step to the eighth level, and the life attribute increased by 10 points.
Then Lin Feng hesitated.
He now has sixteen breakthrough points left, and the final move of the Flying Sword Cloud Piercing Step also requires exactly sixteen breakthrough points.
If we improve, the breakthrough point will be reset to zero; if we don't improve, there will be too many left.
Lin Feng ultimately decided to upgrade his Flying Sword Cloud Piercing Step.
The great battle is about to begin in a few days, and only those with superb lightness skills can protect themselves to the greatest extent in the chaos of battle.
Moreover, it can still rise by two points in the next two days, so having two points as a backup is enough.
Lin Feng spent another sixteen breakthrough points to upgrade his Flying Sword Cloud Piercing Step to the perfect level, increasing his life attribute by eight points.
Lin Feng ate all eight tables of food.
The three waiters serving him outside the door were dumbfounded.
This was the first time in their lives they had ever seen guests who could eat so much.
Ignoring everyone's surprise, Lin Feng continued shaving his teeth with a toothpick.
Today's breakthrough was simply a treat, after all, a feast was much tastier than barbecue.
Lin Feng checked the attribute panel again.
Name: Lin Feng.
Life: 264.
Faction/Affiliation: Outer periphery of the Sword Sect, Qinghe County, Hemp-Clad Guard, Deputy General.
Martial arts:
……
Flying Sword Cloud Piercing Step (Intermediate Level) (Complete Level).
Breakthrough point: 0
Realm: Refined Flesh (Stone Flesh)
The breakthrough point has been cleared; there's no need to worry about it now.
Even after adding points, my cultivation level is still Stone Flesh, so it seems that advancing in cultivation level isn't so easy.
With his Flying Sword Cloud Piercing Step fully upgraded, Lin Feng felt he could leap across tree trunks in the forest with his feet barely touching the ground, and glide for hundreds of meters, almost like flying.
The main purpose of the "Swift as a Thousand Miles" skill is to make oneself run faster.
The Flying Sword Cloud Step focuses more on scaling walls and rooftops.
After mastering the Flying Sword Cloud Piercing Step, Lin Feng felt as if his body had become much lighter.
This time, the skill point allocation was correct; all the breakthrough points were used effectively.
Lin Feng stood up, patted his stomach, and walked out.
Three waiters bowed respectfully to the side, saying, "Please take care, sir, and welcome back next time!"
The three waiters were all young boys. Although they weren't exactly handsome, they had an innocent and simple look on their faces.
These people are truly innocent, and Lin Feng really can't bear to let them become victims of this war.
How can we save these people's lives?
Even sending them to the mountains to mine would be a good thing, at least they wouldn't be killed.
Lin Feng left the ninth floor and walked to a square.
Although this square is not as large as the square in the city center, its area is not much different.
Because there is a snake pit in the middle of the city center square, and that snake pit takes up a considerable area.
Upon seeing this square, Lin Feng had a way to save the lives of these ordinary people.
Whether this method will work or not depends on how far the war goes.
If Zheng Tiejun can bring the Sword Sect's regular army, then there will be no doubt at all.
Although the bandits' equipment looked decent, it was far inferior to the Sword Sect's regular army, and their personnel quality was even worse.
……
After returning, Lin Feng continued to train his men.
They didn't take these people back to sleep until it got dark.
Lin Feng estimated that the bandits wouldn't let everyone train for too long, since they considered these people as cannon fodder.
Moreover, feeding and grooming such a large army is a considerable expense.
We should be heading out for training in the next couple of days.
In the dead of night, the sound of gongs resounded throughout the entire city.
Lin Feng was awakened from his sleep.
What's going on? Are they going to arrest spies again?
