My Items Can Upgrade-Chapter 233 - 154: Departure (75–77/101)

Tai Lang immediately asked, "Mr. Yang Yuan, are you planning to find a place to settle down?"

"That’s right."

Yang Yuan nodded, "I plan to settle by the seaside near this mountain. Director Yan said the other side of the mountain is the sea, and near the ocean, resources are surely abundant. As for the danger, no need for everyone to worry, I’ll handle it when it’s time."

Tai Lang felt a sense of joy, "Then we just need to follow you to the seaside to settle down, and we’ll receive a Marvel?"

"Of course not, there’s a small condition: at the time, I want to build a city, and only those who help in building the city can receive a Marvel."

Yang Yuan said, seeing some frowning, he further added, "This gifted Marvel also comes with an exchange service, same as before, at any time, it can be brought to exchange, just pay the difference."

Tai Lang couldn’t help but ask, "How big will this city be? How long will it take to build? If it takes too long..."

"The city won’t be too big, just enough to accommodate five thousand people. If there are many people, perhaps it will be completed within a few days, after all, none of us are ordinary people."

Yang Yuan said, "All those who participate in the city building will receive a free room and have the right to reside within the city, along with my protection. Of course, the protection range is limited to within the city."

"If that’s the case, then I’ll take on this task."

Tai Lang said, "You can treat this as a task. We free Demon Hunters rely on taking bounty tasks for a living, and we also enjoy taking tasks."

"Then let’s treat it as a task," Yang Yuan smiled, "All who are willing to follow me, stand forth."

In a swoosh, several hundred people stood forth.

People in the back hesitated for a moment, then successively, several hundred more stood forth.

Ultimately, over a thousand people expressed willingness to follow Yang Yuan.

This scene allowed Yan Chenggong to breathe a sigh of relief, fortunately, only over a thousand people.

It seems the military is still more trusted.

Although all those willing to leave with Yang Yuan were Superpower Users, and the majority were of human level, causing him heartache.

But that’s okay.

After all, what he truly needs is a population base, not powerful people.

Because here, apart from people like Yang Yuan who are uncontrollable, he is the strongest.

Yang Yuan smiled with satisfaction, saying, "Thank you all for trusting me. I promise I won’t treat anyone poorly. As soon as the city construction begins, the Marvel will be paid in advance."

With that, he looked at Yan Chenggong, "Then may I trouble Director Yan to send us to the seaside."

Yan Chenggong immediately pretended to persuade, "It’s already so late, why not leave tomorrow?"

"No need, the sooner we go, the sooner we’ll be at ease. Besides, we’ll be neighbors in the future, there might even be opportunities for cooperation." Yang Yuan declined.

"Alright then."

Yan Chenggong didn’t pretend any longer, finally reminding, "Indeed, the other side of the mountain is the sea, but this mountain isn’t right by the seaside. I can only send you a hundred miles away, the rest you’ll have to walk on your own."

"No problem." Yang Yuan nodded.

Yan Chenggong looked at Tai Lang and others, "Everyone knows what kind of person I am. Previously, it was for survival, but now without the survival crisis, I possess eternal life. Many previous rules can be abolished, so if you find time, you can still come to the Divine Mountain to take up bounty tasks, and the rewards will only be higher than before."

"Thank you, Director Yan, we’ll definitely come over to take tasks when we have time." Tai Lang thanked.

Is that a change in tone?

Previously called him Director!

Yan Chenggong complained inwardly, but outwardly maintained a gentle smile, "Since that’s the case, let’s part ways now, hoping for another meeting someday."

"Brother Yang Yuan, be sure to visit Divine Mountain when you find time," he looked at Yang Yuan.

"Absolutely." Yang Yuan nodded, "By the way, I’ll need to trouble Director Yan with my pet too."

"Benefactor, safe travels, hoping for another meeting someday."

Yang Yuan was surprised that Chang Xinrou actually decided to stay at the Divine Mountain.

But it makes sense, all ordinary people are still here, she wants to do good, and surely needs to stay.

Also, all her acquaintances are still here, as their leader, she naturally cannot leave.

"Wish you all a safe journey." Yan Chenggong once again exercised his ’Commanding Soldiers and Generals’ Divine Authority.

In the next moment, including Yang Yuan among them, all of those who stood forth previously were enveloped in mist.

When the mist cleared, from the mountain top of the Divine Mountain, the thousands of people had vanished with no trace.

...

Yang Yuan only felt his head slightly dizzy.

Next moment, the mist in front of them dissipated, they had already left the Divine Mountain.

"Whoa..."

"So comfortable, the air here is so fresh..."

"Seems there’s no wind nor sandstorm here."

"Is that a star? Wow, haven’t seen the starry sky in days!"

Everyone excitedly looked up at the sky.

Indeed, there’s no sandstorm here, the night sky is washed clean, very clear.

"We really left." Zhao Jiayan was also happy, holding Jiang Yiyi’s hand standing beside Yang Yuan.

Yang Yuan turned his head and saw about a hundred miles away, a towering giant mountain reaching the clouds. Even from here, it felt very large and majestic.

"Seems that mountain blocked the sandstorm."

Zhao Jiayan said, "Originally, when we left the Sky Pit, we moved at least a thousand kilometers. But given the Sky Pit’s size, the ash it would spew wouldn’t be little. If the mountain wasn’t blocking it, the sandstorm might have spread thousands of kilometers."

Yang Yuan nodded, perhaps because this terrain is low-lying, the temperature here isn’t as low, probably around seven to eight degrees.
