Everyone's on a time-travel adventure! I'm raising city beasts in a post-apocalyptic world

Lin Feng didn't understand these high-sounding things: "Isn't that perfect? ​​I'm perfectly fine lying at home, eating takeout, humming songs, and watching videos of pretty girls. Why drag me here, making me live in constant fear? I'd rather not have this world..."

"Besides, it's not that exaggerated. These worlds are rife with strange and terrifying things, and there are so many terrifying beings around. It's none of my business, a mere Karami, worrying about them..."

Zi Ling'er leaned forward, arguing forcefully: "Then there are palaces that have devoured fire-attribute items, which have forging platforms to improve forging quality; palaces that have devoured talismanic treasures and rare items, which have talisman inheritances; palaces that have devoured sword box treasures and rare items, which have sword pools to nurture spirit swords; and palaces that have devoured earth spirit pearl treasures and rare items, which can continuously generate spirit soil..."

"These are all real benefits. Who knows, if I swallow this Soul Banner, I might even gain its special properties. Isn't the Netherworld Palace appealing?"

Lin Feng put the soul banner into his spatial ring: "That won't do either. I only have this one right now. I'll find you another one when I have the chance. Also, why haven't I seen Kato use those methods you mentioned?"

Seeing that she couldn't get anything out of him, Zi Ling'er turned her head to the side and spoke after a long while: "...My task is to repair the palace. Not everyone who obtains the Star Palace has to be helped. I don't like that pig, so I'm hiding..."

Lin Feng couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this, tossing the now-useless jade pendant to Zi Ling'er: "Since your answer satisfied me, I'll reward you..."

Zi Ling'er's illusory body easily caught the jade pendant that Lin Feng threw to her. She put the jade pendant to her mouth and nibbled on it one bite after another. Her eating movements were quite elegant. After eating this strange object, her illusory figure became more solid.

Lin Feng was stunned: "No, you just ate it like that? You mean swallowed it? You really swallowed it!"

Zi Ling'er nodded, looking at her with an expression that said, "You're making a fuss over nothing," her tone implying it was perfectly natural.

"Hmm!"

"What's so special about that? My master, Sister Ziwei, even ate a bite of that bell. It was crunchy and delicious. That's where she got her power to suppress heaven and earth..."

"Once you've completed the basic restoration of this palace, I'll show you what I'm capable of. A mere Gray Mist Apostle... you can take him on!!!"

She stretched out her slender fingers and made a pinching motion, then winked playfully.

"That's it?"

Zi Ling'er looked at Lin Feng with a puzzled expression, not knowing what he was talking about.

Seeing that Zi Ling'er didn't understand, Lin Feng repeated, "Didn't you swallow a strange object? Where's the new building? I haven't seen it."

Zi Ling'er gave her a "what are you thinking?" look: "You want to build a new structure with this kind of strange object that even depletes its original power? I've only extracted a trace of its defensive properties and incorporated it into the wall. It will give you more defense when you activate the defensive array next time."

"Unless you give me that soul banner to eat..."

Zi Ling'er moved a little closer to Lin Feng, blinking her eyes...

"No way, don't even think about it..."

Lin Feng ignored the little foodie, clutched the strange object in his hand, and ran off. He only breathed a sigh of relief when he stepped out of the palace gate.

I almost actually considered giving that Soul Banner to Zi Ling'er just now. It's the legendary Netherworld Palace! I wonder how powerful it would be once it was built. But then I realized it's just a prototype and needs to be filled with a massive amount of materials. I don't know when I'll be able to gather enough.

Maybe by then, even their own graves will have disappeared.

With this rare item in hand, dealing with the immediate crisis is the priority.

I bumped into someone as soon as I stepped out the door.

"oops……"

The other person plopped down on the ground. Lin Feng looked closely and exclaimed, "Xia Qianqian, is that you?"

Xia Qianqian propped herself up from the ground, rubbed her bottom, looked up and saw Lin Feng, her face showing a hint of panic: "City...City Lord."

Before she could finish speaking, a fragrant breeze wafted over, and Mo Qingluan had already arrived beside Lin Feng.

"Oh, my king, are you bullying the new girl again?"

Lin Feng glared at her: "What do you mean 'again'? When have I ever bullied her?"

"You've been gone for several days, why did you suddenly call her over?"

Mo Qingluan leaned naturally on Lin Feng's shoulder: "I'm just enriching Your Majesty's harem, aren't I? Otherwise, there aren't enough sisters, and I can't handle it. Last time, I couldn't get out of bed for three days..."

Lin Feng coughed lightly: "Speak properly, or I'll reward you separately tonight!"

Mo Qingluan immediately straightened up, abandoning her charming demeanor, and cleared her throat: "Alright, alright, let's get down to business. I've prepared enough offerings for Qianqian these past few days. She gained a new profession at the altar, a talisman master. We've been researching this stuff these past few days."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng summoned the Golden Book of the Human Emperor, opened a page, and immersed his consciousness in it. This was a new page added after the number of professionals in Xuanfeng City reached 10,000. It was a complete list of professions, and sure enough, he found information about the newly added profession—the Rune Master. Moreover, it was very strong, and the experience required for advancement was on par with Bai Zhirou's Frost Sword Immortal, requiring 5000 experience points.

This means that when it comes to the investiture ceremony, another powerful profession will be added.

Since this thing appeared, Lin Feng discovered that sometimes the strength of the professions that appeared by chance was even stronger than the ones he directly conferred. So he stopped restricting the awakening of professions for the members of the guards and maids, and let them go to Fang Ling to receive the offerings and awaken directly. Otherwise, they would have to wait for the conferment quota for ages.

Thus, the occupation list included life occupations such as farmers, cooks, and butchers, as well as many combat occupations such as swordsmen, shieldmen, spearmen, archers, halberdiers, and strongmen. In addition, there were some support occupations, totaling more than a hundred, a veritable flourishing of diverse occupations.

Looking at Xia Qianqian's ethereal face and alluring figure, Lin Feng felt a sense of anticipation as he imagined her using talismans to suppress the strange creatures in the future.

"Qianqian, what kinds of talismans can you draw right now? How do they compare to Master Lin's?"

Xia Qianqian: "City Lord, I can only draw four types of talismans at the moment. One is a defensive talisman that can be stuck on the body to block attacks, another is a fireball talisman that will explode when thrown after activation, another is a speed talisman that can be stuck on the body to make you run faster, and the last is a sealing talisman that can seal away strange things."

"However, the power of a talisman depends on the grade of the materials used, and it requires materials imbued with spiritual energy to succeed, unlike Master Lin who can directly seal magic onto ordinary yellow paper..."

She spoke softer and softer as she went on. Although the power ceiling was not low, the production conditions were quite demanding. When Lin Feng heard this, he had a plan in mind.

"That's perfect, Qingluan. Our accommodations have been replaced with this wondrous object. Take Qianqian to the Wood Palace; there are talisman inheritances inside. Let her take a look; it might be of great help to her. If she gets lost, call for Ziling'er. Xiaorui and the others are tidying up their new home inside. After that, you can go to the Water Palace and find any room to stay in. There's a spirit pool there where you can take a bath. We'll live there from now on..."
