People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 115: Offending the Gods?
The sun is high in the sky, and the scorching sunlight is like a merciless flame, burning in the vast desert.

The sand grains sparkled with dazzling golden light under the sunlight, as if countless sparks were dancing on the ground.

Several sand scorpions hid in the shadows cast by the walls of the ruins, motionlessly avoiding the scorching sun.

But in this endless desolation that seemed like a Jedi, a young man in luxurious clothes quietly appeared on the top of a sand dune.

"..."

"——No, where did I end up?"

"——Isn't it a bit different from the expected landing point?!"

The boy, who was clearly a projection but looked no different from a normal person, uttered a feeble complaint after discovering his situation.

Lin Feng, who got the location of the God-King's relics from Kusela, originally planned to appear next to the ruins deep in the desert, which is near the mercenary group's headquarters.

But perhaps because of his lack of expertise in the operation, there seemed to be some subtle deviations in the landing point when he emerged from the earth veins.

I was worried that due to the long distance, the power of the projection would be consumed in the process of traveling, and I would have to do it again in the end.

Lin Feng conducted a detailed exploration of the environment around him, and only after he saw several ruins and building complexes not far away did he feel a little relieved.

——It’s okay, not too far off the track. This place is probably due north of the Pillared Sand Plains, not too far from the stronghold of the God-King’s Relics.

Unlike ordinary deserts, the sand sea here in Xumi has many more landmark buildings due to the existence of the Red King's ruins, which can be used to identify one's position, so as not to run around like a confused mole after entering.

As a mercenary who has been in the desert for decades, Kusela naturally provided information that included knowledge to help identify directions.

Carefully feeling his body constructed by the energy of the earth veins, Lin Feng was somewhat surprised to find that even with the combined efforts of the two gods, the body constructed was still not as stable as the one naturally generated by the earth vein flower.

And even if it is destroyed, it doesn't seem to produce any additional drops.

——The earth veins are really magical. How do they work?
Feeling that there were still many things on the continent of Teyvat that he didn't understand, Lin Feng put these problems aside for later and planned to solve the goal of this trip first.

The wind whistled, rolling up gusts of fine dust, which slapped the earth like invisible hands, making a low roaring sound.

In this desolate land, apart from a few stubborn cacti that can be seen occasionally, the only things that can bring some life are the passing tumbleweeds.

Feeling the remoteness of this area, Lin Feng, who hadn't even seen the shadow of a caravan along the way, tentatively expressed his approval of the hiding capabilities of these illegal organizations.

Without wasting too much time, he found the right direction and in just a short while he arrived at the ruins where the relics of the God-King were hidden.

Looking at the door in front of him that was half buried by sand, Lin Feng said that if Kusela had not chosen to surrender himself, it would be difficult for an ordinary person to find the hiding place of these Red King worshippers.

Too lazy to enter the ruins and slowly solve the puzzle, he planned to make a quick decision. He felt the concentration of grass elements around him and decided to give them a decent death based on the strength of the power he could mobilize.

But just as he was about to take action, Lin Feng was somewhat surprised to find that even though he was in the desert, there was no green plant around him.

But the concentration of grass elements here is comparable to that of the rain forest!
You know, the distribution of elements will be affected by the environment. Rainforests with dense vegetation are rich in grass elements.

However, in the desert where there are no green plants, the reserves of grass elements are not significantly different from those in the rainforest area. This situation is obviously very abnormal.

The influence of the Grass Dragon King Apep?
Although he had some guesses about the origin of this situation, Lin Feng did not dwell on it too much, but decided to deal with the enemy in front of him first.

However, in the face of such unique conditions, he also slightly modified his original plan. From only taking away all the criminals, he changed it to "packing up and taking away" the ruins in front of him, which were full of technological content and rich in research value.

The headquarters of the God-King’s Legacy, the decision-making hall.

A mercenary with dark skin and thick beard was communicating with a young man beside him.

"Lord Mishal, is it really okay for us to do this?"

"I heard that Xumi City now has two gods in charge!"

"Even if those brothers have no intention of coming back, what should we do if they destroy the Flower God's Birthday Festival and attract the revenge of the gods?"

The young mercenary looked at the leader in front of him, a little worried about the actions taken some time ago.

"..."

"Zabo, I watched you grow up, and the position of leader of the God King's Legacy is destined to be passed on to you in the future."

"I have been teaching you for so long. Based on your understanding of me, do you think I really haven't thought about these things?"

Mishal, who had a typical desert appearance, shook his head and looked at the successor in front of him with some disappointment. Finally, he explained:

"——The Scarlet King's majesty cannot be desecrated!"

"After the return of the gods of the traitors in the rain forest, even though we have criminal records of those peripheral members, they still have an unnecessary fear of breaking into the sand wall!"

“This is a sign of infidelity!”

"No matter who stands against us, it will not affect our great cause of awakening the Scarlet King. When the ancient king returns to this land, everything can start anew."

"Those brothers who volunteered to die were just an example, a necessary sacrifice to show the position of our Legacy of the God-King."

"Next, it's time for those cowards to set an example."

"Use their criminal records and families to give these traitors a chance to atone for their sins. When they meet the Scarlet Queen, they will surely repent for their cowardice!"

At this point, Mishal paused and explained why he dared to do so:
"——Besides, our base is a gift from Lord Scarlet King. Even the gods of the rainforest cannot..."

Mishal, who was originally expressing his ambitions, suddenly felt the ground shaking violently. Just as he was about to say something, he saw two mercenaries with terrified faces running in from the door.

"Tree, tree. What a big tree!"

"Chief, it seems like we're being attacked!"

Mishal originally intended to criticize these two mercenaries who were still panicking and acting in a disorderly manner in the Red King's sanctuary.

But after he saw clearly what the two guys meant by "tree".

Facing the hall before me, there is nothing but green vines.

A look of fear could not help but appear on his fanatical face.
