Chapter 14: Recreating The Abode Of The Looter
Shen Li sighed in disbelief before he glimpsed at the people behind him. He later found the blonde young man who was following him since he moved his feet to their abode.
"What's your name?" He said.
"Me, Great Lord? I'm Lin Yaoshin. But you can call me Yaoyao!" Yaoshin joyfully replied before he bowed to his Great Lord.
But Shen Li just frowned at what Yaoshin did. Up until now he can't get used to it. He knows that he's younger than them. Yes! All of these people seem older than him by a year or two.
That's why he doesn't understand why they kept on kneeling or bowing their heads to the young ones. It should be the young ones needed to pay respect to the elders.
He's not a child of a rich or aristocratic person. He's just a normal, ordinary person who wanted to live more for a certain reason.
To make his younger brother live a better life and not think about the future.
He wanted to warn Yaoshin and the others not to bend their heads when they were talking.
Yet, he remembers about the system that's why he just shrugged it off first and faced Yaoshin again.
"Is there any particular reason why people hate you? Or want you?" Shen Li inquired making Yaoshin dumb.
Yaoshin even raises his eyebrows because he doesn't understand what their Great Lord said.
What is the Lord's thinking? Is he out of his mind? He thought.
However, he saw the calm expression of his new leader. No worries whatsoever. Unlike him, who still wondered if their new leader was a stupid blockhead.
But then realize that Shen Li is waiting for his answer. So he foolishly scratched his nape while recollecting his bad old memories.
The memories of his former leader and alliances. They keep on mocking him, hurting him, and making him the bait just to satisfy their benefits.
However, despite being a slave to them, he's keeping on serving them. He doesn't know what to do or what life he'll face if he ever leaves the group. That's why he decided to stay and be a fool.
Yes, he's the idiot one.
"Being a brainless person?" he released a question mark expression on his face.
After hearing the response of that young man, named Yaoshin, Shen Li released an intense sigh.
He already knows that it will come. Because of its action, telling how stupid Yaoshin was.
Like what he did back then, from Shen Yui's job. Shen Li tapped the plus button on his profile on the system and started to type the name Lin Yaoshin.
Captured its image. Then add its job as 'Brainless Person.'
However, he erased it later on. And set it into Crazy Killer. He'll place another job for Yaoshin if he needed to.
Why did he think that this would be Yaoshin's job? Because he noticed that there was something different about this man.
It's just his instinct. He'll see it someday. If that day will arrive because there's a chance that he'll never come back to this world after the remain's end.
And then Yui has had enough of increasing his points. He just did what the system told him to buy Geo Fruit.
Shen Li rolled his back again and didn't answer Yaoshin. He began to buy that fruit and simply ate it after it fell into his palm.
Shen Li's face winced when he bit the Geo Fruit. It tasted like soil at first, but in the end, it changed and turned into sweet candy. The flavor is like fresh honey.
When he was done chewing the fruit, he started to control the ground. The people who were near the old walls moved fast with shock on their faces.
Yaoshin was also surprised at what he saw before glancing in the direction of Shen Li. His face was still calm while moving his hand as if dancing to the music and the wind blowing on their face.
For the second time, he paid attention to the ground again and found the high walls that circled them. It's like they were in the dungeon.
It happened so fast, Yaoshin didn't even notice their leader leaving in front of him.
Shen Li went to a house in the middle and looked at them with a serious expression that still cannot be explained to this day.
Shen Li also felt extremely tired, he didn't expect that it will absorb a lot of energy just to control the earth.
He needs to start selling to expand his business and increase his points.
~
Shen Li initiated to ask everyone to renovate their abode, he didn't continue what he said before, about the 8 teams.
It's better to have everyone work together on something to get it done right away.
Everyone began their job. From walls to the top, from the ground and borders. And water resources to food supplies.
They even changed the sign of the flag and turned it into 'Business First, War Later.'
It's nonsense for others, but for Shen Li, it has a deep meaning.
Don't disturb him, let him sell, if not, death would be faced.
So, it's a warning for everyone.
"Great Lord, is there going to be a war in this world?" Yaoshin asked as night fell.
They were both sitting on the ground that now had weeds after they take all the stray weeds to put inside their camp.
Shen Li looked up at the sky, looking for stars but he couldn't see a single one. Only three or more moons.
"..." Instead of answering Yaoshin, Shen Li just proceeded to stare at the sky.
'From Lin Yaoshin +999'
Shen Li was stunned. He peeked in the direction of Lin Yaoshin and saw how he grimaced.
Resentment appeared on Yaoshin's face because of his attitude. Instead of being anxious, Shen Li just shook his head at the young man.
'It's not easy to trust anyone here.' Shen Li thought.
