"What... what? Guardian of the Creation Lamp?!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng sat up directly from his rattan chair, looking at Ling Xi with a serious expression.
"Mhm!"
Ling Xi nodded, "But I've only heard about it... I'm not too clear on the specifics..."
Immediately, Ye Feng turned his gaze to Bao Yu Ting. He saw Bao Yu Ting nod, "Indeed, that's what they say... In the early days of the Great Calamity, many powerful explorers mentioned it..."
"Later, as the Great Calamity intensified, the explorer craze declined... large human survivor bases were constantly destroyed... not many people knew about it anymore..."
"I once thought there was no such thing as a complete series of Desperate Potions..."
Bao Yu Ting spoke quickly to Ye Feng.
"This... Mr. Ye, this gift is truly too precious, I cannot accept it!"
After a pause, Bao Yu Ting added again.
"Keep it. Since I've decided to give it to you, I won't take it back! Consider it repaying the favor you did for me by sending me Anka!"
Ye Feng shook his head.
"Accept it!"
Seeing Bao Yu Ting's hesitant expression, Ye Feng spoke again.
Afterward, Ye Feng lay back into the rattan chair, closed his eyes, and rested leisurely. Bao Yu Ting, on the other hand, looked at the Desperate Potion Ye Feng gave her with surprise and excitement...
...
More than an hour later,
Leng Yue and Qiao Ying returned to the camp, both with a hint of disappointment, and also some relief.
Obviously, as Ling Xi had said before, they had once again come back empty-handed, failing to find the Stone of Hope...
"Mr. Ye, do you know when you will be leaving here?"
At this moment, Bao Yu Ting walked up to Ye Feng and asked cautiously.
"I'll be leaving in a day or two~"
As he spoke, Ye Feng glanced at Xiao Xiao, who was drawing in the distance, then turned to look at Ling Xi and the other two women eating nearby, "What about you all?"
"We're all fine!"
Ling Xi replied quickly, and Leng Yue and Qiao Ying also nodded.
"What's wrong? Do you have any arrangements?"
Immediately, Ye Feng looked at Bao Yu Ting with some confusion.
"Mr. Ye, it's like this. After this incident, the high-ranking vampires of Brad Base are all dead, and the ordinary vampires have suffered heavy casualties... Hong Hong is also gone... I have no lingering attachment to this place..."
"There is a huge mass grave in Brad Base, where the vampires massacred my people..."
"I plan to burn this place down as a memorial to my people!"
Bao Yu Ting explained quickly to Ye Feng.
"Oh, alright!~"
Ye Feng nodded, "There are so many supplies, count them, and we'll leave tomorrow!"
"Okay!"
...
It had to be said that Brad Base had accumulated a vast amount of supplies, almost filling the entire hillside. Ye Feng and his group didn't finish inventorying them until late at night.
Learning of Bao Yu Ting's plan, Ye Feng even allocated a large pile of supplies to her. She originally wanted to refuse, but Ye Feng still filled several space fragment bracelets for her.
Finally, Ye Feng took out hundreds of space rift fragments he had used before, arranged them in an array, forming a huge space, filled it with supplies, and gave it to Bao Yu Ting...
...
The next day at noon,
Accompanied by a blazing fire, Ye Feng and his group drove away from Brad Base.
After passing through the super sandstorm surrounding Brad Base, amidst Bao Yu Ting's farewells, Ye Feng, Xiao Xiao, Ling Xi, Leng Yue, and Qiao Ying left in the Hummer...
Bao Yu Ting watched Ye Feng's Hummer disappear from her sight before returning to her own off-road vehicle...
...
In the evening,
The sun was setting, and the colorful sunset glow cascaded over the earth, as if draping a colorful veil over the mountains and rivers, making them look breathtakingly beautiful.
"Ye Feng, thank you for saving me!"
Ye Feng was sitting on a hillside, enjoying the beauty of the sunset. Suddenly, Qiao Ying walked up and thanked Ye Feng solemnly.
"Uh... you don't need to thank me..."
Ye Feng scratched his head and waved his hand.
Qiao Ying met Ye Feng's gaze, her face blushing slightly, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say. The atmosphere became a bit awkward.
Finally, Qiao Ying also sat down on the grass, and quietly enjoyed the sunset view with Ye Feng...
...
As the sun set and night gradually descended,
Ye Feng and Qiao Ying also got up and walked back to the campfire, where they ate a sumptuous dinner.
"Speaking of which, Ye Feng, you and Qiao Ying, before Brad Base... did you know each other?"
Ling Xi, who was eating a skewer of roasted lamb, looked at Ye Feng with curiosity, then at Qiao Ying.
Ye Feng and Qiao Ying both shook their heads.
"You don't know each other?"
Ling Xi was slightly surprised, "Then why did you take such a big risk to save Qiao Ying? That situation... was not ordinary danger!"
As soon as Ling Xi finished speaking, not only Leng Yue, but even Qiao Ying herself looked at Ye Feng like a curious baby.
"Uh..."
Ye Feng scratched his head and vaguely said, "A mysterious person told me to save Qiao Ying..."
Upon hearing this, Ling Xi frowned slightly and didn't ask further. She and Leng Yue exchanged glances, both looking thoughtful.
"Um... Ye Feng, how did you master the Heavenly Prison Array? That's something that appeared during the God War, and it's been lost since then!"
"And you were actually able to kill the Dark Shadow Puppet!"
At this moment, Qiao Ying's voice rang out. Although some time had passed, her voice was still filled with surprise.
"This... the Heavenly Prison Array was something I obtained by chance... As for the Dark Shadow Puppet... I don't know what that thing is..."
...
Deep in the night,
Xiao Xiao, Ling Xi, Leng Yue, and Qiao Ying, the three women, had already fallen asleep. However, Ye Feng, with excitement, was examining two large, faintly glowing boxes in front of him. These were the boxes he had obtained earlier at Brad Base, containing a large number of unused space rift fragments.
Ye Feng was in a very good mood at the moment because he had previously guessed that the expandable space warehouse might have originally contained buildings or something similar, but he had never been able to verify it.
After all, the last time the space warehouse was expanded, outside the area where the small wooden house was located, there appeared grassland, small trees, and a river. Moreover, that river was flowing...
The trip to Brad Base not only yielded him a large number of space rift fragments but also many usable points. Now he could finally verify his guess...
Soon, Ye Feng began to inventory the space rift fragments in the two large boxes.
"Ding~ Ding~ Ding~"
With a series of crisp beeps, Ye Feng's space warehouse continued to expand...
...
More than half an hour later,
"This is really troublesome... The usable points are enough... but the space rift fragments are not enough..."
Looking at the empty large boxes in front of him, Ye Feng felt a wave of frustration.
He had just used all the space rift fragments in the two large boxes to expand the space warehouse. There were 2200 space rift fragments in the two large boxes. After spending 22,000 usable points, he successfully expanded the space warehouse capacity by 110...
"Little one, why are you worrying in the middle of the night?"
At this moment, Ling Xi's voice came from behind him.
