Master of the End Times

Panda Novel

A logo with the words ‘F1’ appeared above the medal on this person’s chest, which meant that this person’s strength was at least ten tiers above Qin Feng’s and Zhou Hao’s.

4Of course, he would not have counted for much when compared to the Qin Feng in the previous life.

One other thing was that, besides this F-tier logo, this person also had a medal of the patrol team’s vice-captain.

The patrol team had the highest authority in a colony. How could anyone blatantly disregard a high-ranking officer?

“No, no. This is all Qin Feng!” said Zhou Hao, not wanting to wait for the powerful people from the patrol team to start asking questions. Instead, he immediately attempted to set the record straight, not wanting to take any credit at all.

The officer, with all his experience, knew that it was all Qin Feng’s handiwork. The surveillance video had told him that already.

3“Not bad. Is your name Qin Feng? I’m Xue Xingfu, captain of Twelfth Street in the colony!”

2Qin Feng cocked his eyebrows when he heard the name.

Xue Xingfu?

This person would become a notoriously crooked businessman ten years later. Who knew that he was actually a vice-captain ten years ago.

“How are you?” Qin Feng nodded.

2Xue Xingfu grinned at Qin Feng, his eyes glistening and his voice gentle. “Thank you for your help.”

2In one sentence, he had reduced Qin Feng’s matter of life or death combat to mere help!

Whenever a rift appeared threatening the safety of the colony, those who extinguished the threat would receive a special reward. What more a dangerous thing like this.

Qin Feng had no intention of exposing the guy.

“We were just defending ourselves. Otherwise, we would’ve died as well!”

Xue Xingfu maintained his smile, but deep inside, he wondered why Qin Feng was so calm. Too calm, in fact.

“It’s like that—you can collect the fangs and heart’s blood of the razor-fanged infants and sell them for a nice price, but because considering you’re so young, if you sell them on your own, I’m pretty sure you wouldn’t make a profit.”

Qin Feng smiled thoughtfully at that.

If it was Zhou Hao who was standing there, he might have fallen for Xue Xingfu’s trick.

Fangs and heart’s blood may not sell for much, but an entire body could be counted as a significant contribution. If he wanted to, Xue Xingfu could have actually claimed that he was the one that killed all of them.

These were all behind the scenes, under the counter dealings. In this world, the strong wielded the scepter. The ones who were powerful had a say in everything.

Qin Feng did not beat around the bush either and said, “Eight bodies for eight G-tier strengthening potions!”

Xue Xingfu’s smile froze, his gleamy pleasant demeanor replaced by one of seriousness.

1The price of G-tier strengthening potions was not too high. One tube only costs about 10,000 yuan, but in the colony, the average wage a month hovered around a very humble 1,000 yuan.

Eight tubes of that potion would cost 80,000!

As an official, however, Xue Xingfu could purchase them at an ‘insider’s price,’ saving himself half the cost.

40,000 yuan was the exact amount that Qin Feng had received as a reward for killing the razor-fanged infants.

If that was true, wasn’t that too much of a coincidence?

“Either way, you won’t make a loss!” Qin Feng added.

Xue Xingfu was about to probe him further, but his questions were already answered.

It appeared that this kid really did know things!

“Fine. You got it!”

“Then, thank you, Captain Xue!” Qin Feng answered in a happy, congratulatory tone.

“Hahaha, there’s no need to thank me. You’re not bad all, all. If you come across something good next time, you can come see me!” Xue Xingfu added Qin Feng to his communicator. He might have use of it in the future.

4If this boy could kill razor-fanged infants now, he might just be powerful enough in the future. He might just be useful in the time to come.

Xue Xingfu might not be a merchant now, but he already had the potential of a successful businessman!

…

Xin Feng gave half of the potions he had received to Zhou Hao. The latter merely stared at the thing that they never even dared imagine having.

3“Why did you ask for so many? Aren’t these things ridiculously costly?” Zhou Hao asked.

“Members of the patrol team get them for half-price.”

“Wow. Being part of the patrol team sounds great. Governments will always be governments. It’ll be great if we could make the team next time!”

“You can join if you want to, of course!” Qin Feng nodded in eagerness. Zhou Hao had died for him before. Now that Qin Feng was reborn, he would make sure to treat this brother well.

6As for that Chen Ming…

1Perhaps human hearts are fickle. Perhaps after losing a brother, Qin Feng wanted to have a friendship so bad that his eyes were blinded to the fact that he was, for all intents and purposes, a wretch!

“Wait, Qin Feng, take these two back. I don’t need so many. Also, I only killed two. If you hadn’t saved me, I would’ve died just now!”

Zhou Hao warmly pushed two vials into Qin Feng’s hands.

“You can earn it back once your abilities or ancient warrior talents have awakened!” Qin Feng gave them back. These potions were not very useful to him since his abilities had already been awakened. He did not just dump everything to his friend only to avoid raising Zhou Hao’s suspicion.

Qin Feng did not plan to tell anyone about his rebirth.

9“Alright, brother. Once, I’ve awakened, I would even buy you A-tier ones if you that’s what you want!” Zhou Hao said, thumping his own chest.

3Of course, it was just a young man’s irresponsible crowing, filled with hot air!

Only a few A-tier strengthening potions were issued every year.

As the pair chatted on, the ambulance finally arrived at the scene to help the injured. Because Qin Feng helped fight off the razor-fanged infants, he was given a hero’s treatment.

“It’s alright. I can do it myself. Go ahead and tend to the severely injured. I’m fine!” Qin Feng stopped the nurse tending to him and picked up a bit of gauze to bandage his wounds.

When the nurse saw how deft his movement was, she nodded and left to help others. They couldn’t afford to be distracted on the battlefield. For every extra minute saved was another minute that could be used to save someone’s life.

On top of that, special ability users in the colony were rough and tough. This surface wound was nothing.

No one knew that Qin Feng’s special ability allowed him to heal his wounds rapidly.

Since the hastily set up triage tent by the ambulance team was tight and cramped, Zhou Hao did not come along. He waited outside for Qin Feng, and when he saw his friend’s arm and calf wrapped in thick, bloodstained bandages, he could not help but feel sorry for him.

“Qin Feng! Surely, a miserable day for you!” Zhou Hao muttered. “You fell down and blacked out this morning, then you were bitten by the razor-fanged infants. Should you go find a light ability user and ask for a blessing or something?”

“Are they that easy to find?” Qin Feng chuckled.

He did not think that he was unlucky today. In fact, he felt extremely fortunate.

How many people in history could start afresh, respawning like in some video game after they had died?

16“Alright, I’m just saying, you know!” Zhou Hao smiled.

“Mm. Oh, right, I have something I need to do. You should go back to school first.” Qin Feng stopped suddenly.

“Qin Feng… are you still going to work? Don’t go yet! This is the best time for awakening. You don’t want to delay it.”

Zhou Hao’s statement caught Qin Feng by surprise. He pondered for a bit before remembering that he did indeed have a job ten years ago.

Zhou Hao’s parents were still around and healthy. He even had a brother. While they were considered of average status in the colony, they had jobs that paid them well enough to raise Zhou Hao comfortably, albeit, minus some comforts in life.
