Chapter 676: Astronomical Bounty

“Abyssal Ocean Bounty: Glutton Leviathan, 500 billion credits”

Yes, that was right. The overlord that was ravaging the Abyssal Ocean—the Glutton Leviathan was worth 500 billion power credits!

The Eastern Region’s regent—Tung Yang had put it on bounty for many years so that the A-tiers would work together to take it down. Regretfully, no one was up to the task.

Of course, other than the Glutton Leviathan, there were many more terrifying beasts in the wild ocean: the Hundred-Claw, Devil Mountain, Siren Botchling and many more. These were all terrifying overlords of the Abyssal Ocean. It would cost East Sea City an astronomical amount of money to pay the ones who claimed all of the bounties.

Common folks had long thought that it was impossible for anyone to harm these monstrosities, let alone kill them!

Yet now, someone was able to pull it off. Thus, the news spread quickly across East Sea City like wildfire. And of course, even Tung Yang had caught wind of this and stormed out of his office with joy!

Tung Yang was as busy as Shang Han with his daily responsibilities to the Eastern Region. Even though he had a full entourage of secretaries to aid him with these boring paper works, there was still plenty of work that glued him to his desk.

Still, Tung Yang was still quite different from Shang Han because he was getting frailer as he got older. As such, he had long forfeited in continuing on with training his abilities and enhancing his powers. He felt that there was no point in training further if he was going to die soon.

That was why the most training he did was to maintain his powers. He spent most of his time handling the governance of Eastern Region.

Tung Yang did not really have high hopes for Qin Feng. Sure, the boy was a prodigy and a good fighter. Still, the kid was from the Northern Region—he was never a part of the Eastern Region anyway. He spent so much money to get him here merely because he needed manpower.

However, now… things were different. He had a completely different perception of Qin Feng now!

This boy had proven that he was powerful… extremely powerful! So powerful that he was worthy of the title “Champion”! And a champion would garner anyone’s respect no matter where he went.

To add more, Qin Feng had done something no one had ever done before! Not even those A-tiers could do the same!

He Jia received Tung Yang’s message almost instantaneously when the news got out.

“Governor Qin! Regent Tung has requested for you to meet him in the city. You have completed this great feat and he wants to hold a feast to celebrate your glory!” He Jia told Qin Feng excitedly.

Being a manager who was assigned as Qin Feng’s navigator and assistant, He Jia too would be rewarded for Qin Feng’s achievements.

Qin Feng knew that after he had slain the Glutton Leviathan, the entire geopolitics of East Sea City and the ecosystem of the Abyssal Ocean would change drastically. Hence, it was quite understandable that Tung Yang wanted to meet him.

“Certainly. But may I request that he wait for a moment. Just half a day will do. I need to settle the Glutton Leviathan first.”

“Oh, okay. I’ll let the regent know.”

Thus, He Jia got into contact with Tung Yang.

“Regent, Governor Qin said he will need half a day before meeting you. He said he needed to settle the Glutton Leviathan first. It seems that after becoming his Undead Puppet, the beast can’t be too far away from its conscious-bound master.”

Not only that, the Glutton Leviathan was a sea beast. Without the aid of water, its bone structures could crack and fall apart on land. However, if it remained in water, the creature was basically a formidable battleship.

Tung Yang understood it right away after hearing Qin Feng’s reason. Thus, he said, “Sure, no problem. And tell him to not dismantle the Glutton Leviathan. This thing is invaluable to the city… to the whole Human Alliance! This thing could still fight—for us! Tell him I’ll meet him myself in 2 hours’ time.”

“Ah!” He Jia was surprised to hear that Tung Yang was coming to meet him instead. She anxiously nodded. “Understood, Regent!”

As the two of them were on a call, Qin Feng had already ordered the Glutton puppet to move toward the dock. The monster’s presence was so powerful and terrifying that the onlookers felt a lingering terror creeping out from the depths of their souls when they looked at it.

“Gulp!”

A C-tier gulped down his saliva as he looked at the gigantic beast moving to the dock from a deep-sea vessel. When the B-tier next to him saw it, despite knowing that it was already under the control of Dark Puppeteering, he still could not help but feel frightened.

“What are you waiting for? Move our vessel out of its way!”

Perhaps he was too nervous witnessing the monster, the C-tier’s hand shook as he tried to fiddle with the controls and accidentally pressed the fire trigger.

Boom!

A cannon shell was shot into the air before landing on the Glutton puppet’s head.

Of course, the head was quite enormous in size. The place the cannon shell landed was about one hundred meters away from where Qin Feng and the others stood. Qin Feng did not even try to deflect the cannon shell and allowed it to land on Glutton puppet’s head and then onto its teeth.

Kabooom!!

The cannon shell exploded.

The loud explosion struck fear in every ability users’ heart in the vicinity, almost stopping their hearts.

“What the hell? Who fired that shot?”

“Oh my gosh, what an idiot!”

“Is the guy nuts? They dare to taunt a beast emperor?”

Everyone started to get nervous. This could end up in a bloodshed if the beast was provoked.

When the smoke cleared, everyone was dumbstruck when they saw that there was not even scratch on the Glutton puppet’s mouth.

Meanwhile, the B-tier ability user climbed out of his deep-sea vessel and used his internal energy to announce his apology, “I’m deeply sorry! It was an unintended shot. My pilot was scared stiff so he pressed the wrong button! I’m so so sorry for that!”

He was so horrified that he would do anything to prove his innocence. Of course, that C-tier would probably be skinned alive too after this.

“It’s alright. I understand!”

“I’m really really sorry…!!!”

“Like I said, I understand. Don’t worry about it!”

After comforting the deep-sea vessel’s ability users, Qin Feng decided to not have the Glutton puppet dock to the port anymore. Instead, he asked Zhang Geng to help him to arrange an open water area to “park” the beast.

This would benefit him and the Fengli Organization too because this would also allow Guo Guan bringing in people to remodel equipment to make use of the space as a temporary warehouse.

Of course, Zhang Geng did not see any reason to refuse this request. As such, he helped Qin Feng to secure a place right away. He was very quick in contacting the port’s authorities and logistics, fearing that if he acted any slower he might offend Qin Feng.

A short while later, the now puppeteered Glutton Leviathan was now resting calmly at its own spot.

Despite it not being anywhere near the port now, its presence was still quite powerful so no one dared to go near the area.

Suddenly, a dimensional portal appeared in the sky. The Fengli Dweller then flew out of the portal, bringing Guo Guan and his men, and a large amount of materials, to East Sea City.

Seeing that the aircraft had arrived, Qin Feng brought Yu Yangtao onboard Fengli Dweller. Seeing this, He Jia quickly informed Qin Feng that Tung Yang was going to come meet him soon.

“I see. Alright, noted. I will meet Regent Tung later. I’ve got to handle a few matters at hand first. See you around.”

“Ah! Alright. We’ll see you later, Governor Qin!”

As she watched Qin Feng leave, He Jia felt that they seemed to come from two completely different worlds.

Qin Feng was a man destined to be respected by the public; while she… she was just a nobody.

On Fengli Dweller, Qin Feng, of course, could not have known what He Jia had in her mind. He had a lot of people counting on him to move forward. This was his way of life—to always look forward and move forward. Never look back! That was how you maintain your momentum and confidence in dealing with any predicament thrown at you in life.

Right now, Qin Feng needed to introduce two important men to one another.

“Guo Guan, this is Yu Yangtao, a B-tier ability user. He’s one of us now. From now onwards, he would help us in our business in East Sea City. I’d like to make him the chief manager of the Fengli Organization branch in this!”

“Mr Yu, this is the manager of our Research and Development Division. He has great experience in research and developing products. All the products that would be sold in East Sea City would all be developed by him.”
