Swallowing the Stars: Providing a Loan to Luo Feng Begins

Chapter 3 The Mysterious Arc of Light (Please continue reading)
The next evening.

"Brother Luo!"

"Hello, Brother Luo!"

The prisoners called out respectfully, one by one.

Luo Feng ignored them completely. His feat of defeating four 'advanced students' in a one-on-four battle had already spread throughout the detention center, so ordinary prisoners naturally dared not offend him.

He arrived at the cafeteria.

I took my food as usual, sat down, and looked at the pile of 'biological food' in front of me. I didn't have a strong appetite.

"Chen Qi, are you saying that some people will start a fight later, and then deliberately involve me to attack me?" Luo Feng asked Chen Qi in his mind.

He couldn't understand it. How could Chen Qi predict the future?
Is this really possible?
"You don't need to know how I guessed it." Chen Qi didn't explain, but instead confirmed the plan again: "Once they make a move on you, use your 'psychic power' to unleash a burst of power and show your strength, so that the guards will realize that you are extraordinary. Now let's leave here as soon as possible."

"Why are we in such a hurry to leave the detention center?" Luo Feng didn't understand. Once his quasi-martial artist assessment certificate was issued, the detention center would naturally ask him to leave respectfully. Why make a scene at the detention center?

Chen Qi then said:

"Let's get out of the detention center quickly so we can repay the loan as soon as possible!"

"Loan? What loan are you talking about?"

Luo Feng was stunned.

No, when did "we" get burdened with loans?

Last night, Luo Feng was so immersed in the joy of his breakthrough that he couldn't sleep at all. He was also very grateful to Chen Qi for helping him improve his strength and talked with Chen Qi for most of the night, but he didn't hear anything about the loan.

Chen Qi paused for a moment, then simply said:

"You don't need to worry about that. It won't do you any harm anyway. Just tell me if the 'herbal essence lotion' works well or not?"

That would be excellent.

Luo Feng had to admit that being able to level up instantly and awaken his talent as a mentalist just by drinking a sip of liquid was like a windfall.

Chen Qi continued:

"If you think it's good, then we'll continue doing it this way. Once you capture a mid-level beast general or kill some beast general-level monsters, I can help you level up quickly."

"Can it be improved quickly?"

Luo Feng was overjoyed.
He had a good feel for his strength last night, and it had improved tremendously. If such good things happened often, then what would be so difficult about breaking through!
But then he realized what was happening.

Why must we capture beast generals alive first so that Chen Qi can upgrade them?

"Chen Qi, this isn't going to be the cost of repaying the loan, is it?" Luo Feng was a top student and not stupid; he immediately guessed what was going on.

"..." Chen Qi felt that things were being exposed, and immediately emphasized, "What is this? With your level of intermediate warrior mental mastery, you can't even handle a few beast generals?"

"But what you gave me was a treasure that could upgrade my physical attributes to the level of an 'advanced warrior.' Without my mental cultivation talent, how am I supposed to kill beast generals?"

Luo Feng couldn't help but complain.

"Putting everything else aside, just tell me how fast and enjoyable the boost was?" Chen Qi said bluntly.

"..." Luo Feng tried to organize his thoughts, but after thinking it over, he realized that Chen Qi's logic was indeed sound.

"Remember, make a big scene, then demand accountability and a meeting with the military. With your strength and talent, you can ask the military for permission to freely enter and leave the base city." Chen Qi once again emphasized the key points. "This way, we can avoid the usual procedures of waiting for the martial artist assessment and then joining the team, which is too slow."

"I've heard you say that so many times, Chen Qi, I've memorized it long ago."

Looking around, Luo Feng heard over a hundred prisoners talking amongst themselves, while two guards, rifles in hand, occasionally glanced into the canteen and chatted amongst themselves. Cameras were running inside the canteen.

Everything is in order.

until
A one-eyed, burly man sat down at a long table near Luo Feng and said to him, "You are Luo Feng?"

Luo Feng instantly became alert, asking himself, "Chen Qi, is it him?"

“Yes, someone will start arguing with him later, then a fight will break out, and then it will affect you. In fact, you are their target!” Chen Qi thought of the plot of the original work. This one-eyed strong man should be nicknamed 'One-Eyed Dragon'.

"One-eyed dragon!"

"How are we going to resolve the matter of you hitting my brother?"

Immediately afterwards, someone shouted a few times.

The one-eyed man looked over and immediately cursed:

"roll!"

"If you don't get out of here, don't blame me for being impolite."

"..." Luo Feng perked up. Everything was unfolding exactly as Chen Qi had predicted, and the two quickly erupted into an argument.

After an argument, the two groups suddenly erupted into a riot, grabbing long tables and other objects, and engaging in a 'fight'.

Upon seeing this, Luo Feng couldn't help but sigh. If Chen Qi hadn't mentioned it beforehand, he really wouldn't have been able to foresee that these people were just putting on an act and actually wanted to harm him.

Following the situation, Luo Feng stood up, seemingly unwilling to get involved in the chaos. However, at that moment, 'One-Eyed Dragon' and one of his men suddenly attacked Luo Feng together, and a long, sharpened iron nail pierced Luo Feng's waist and abdomen.

A razor blade also appeared in the palm of 'One-Eyed Dragon'!
"Luo Feng, proceed according to plan and make a big fuss!" Chen Qi shouted loudly in Luo Feng's mind.

A bunch of thugs, they're not exactly good people anyway.

Luo Feng had already made his move. Like a nimble leopard, he leaped up instantly, breaking free from the two men's encirclement. The physical abilities of a high-level warrior were simply overwhelming against these people. He then delivered two flying kicks, striking the shoulders of One-Eyed Dragon and his subordinate respectively.

He kicked the two of them flying.

As planned, Luo Feng was still holding back, only using the physical qualities of a 'quasi-martial artist', in order to prepare for the unleashing of his 'spiritual master' strength later.

"This guy's tough, let's all go!" The short, fat guy who was originally against the one-eyed dragon suddenly switched sides and shouted loudly.

A group of people gathered around.

Taking advantage of the chaos to launch a siege
In the distance, a guy nicknamed 'Cobra' suddenly made a furtive move.

"Hmph, so what if you're physically strong? I'll ambush you from the shadows, you won't be able to react in time! I, Cobra, am going to take your arm!" Cobra's face was full of ferocity.

"Brother Zhou" ordered that this person's arm and leg be removed. As long as Cobra takes off an arm, the reward he will receive will be substantial.

"Hey~~"

A throwing knife flew out swiftly.

Luo Feng instantly became alert and looked at the 'flying knife,' his powerful mental energy suddenly erupting at that moment.

"change."

A loud shout!
The 'flying knife' began to reverse at an extremely bizarre angle and finally hovered in mid-air. For a moment, all the prisoners who had noticed the 'flying knife' were dumbfounded.

The throwing knife stopped hovering in mid-air?
"Go to hell!"

A fierce glint flashed in Luo Feng's eyes.

The plan Chen Qi gave him involved killing someone.

Since these people accepted the mastermind's offer to kill them, they should be prepared to be killed in return. Their deaths are their own doing.

The throwing knife spun rapidly, transforming into a stunning arc of light!

"Hey~"

In the narrow corridor, the sound of the throwing knife created a sonic boom that echoed continuously, instantly piercing the brow of 'Cobra,' who was still unable to comprehend when the knife stopped.

They pierced a large hole directly in his head.

'boom'

The cobra's eyes widened, and it collapsed, dead.

"Everyone squat down! Everyone squat down!"

A large number of guards, armed with rifles, rushed into the dining hall, and all the prisoners immediately covered their heads and squatted on the ground.

There were only two exceptions.

One was the lifeless 'Cobra,' lying on the floor with blood gushing from his forehead, no longer able to squat down.

another.
Standing in the center of the cafeteria hall, facing the group of 'guards' with a cold expression, Luo Feng showed no fear of the rifles in his eyes.

Ordinary warriors are already not very afraid of ordinary firearms.

Moreover, he is a mentalist of a mid-level warrior.

The guards dared not make any further demands on Luo Feng. The two guards in the canteen at the beginning had witnessed much of the fighting, including the hovering throwing knife. Both guards realized that this young man was extraordinary.

Given their strength, they absolutely should not be locked up in this detention center.

Luo Feng walked forward step by step, completely disregarding the threat of the firearms, and said coldly:

"I want to see people from your military."

“I had no grudge against these people, yet they inexplicably attacked me. I need to know who dared to instigate prisoners to commit violence against me in the detention center!”
