YM778.TV 107 Chapter 107
Once Lin Fan came out of the gates and moved a distance away, he had Angela carry him off into the forest in a certain direction.
After coming out ten kilometers which only took Angela around ten minutes with her speed, which also accounted for avoiding anyone seeing them, the two of them arrived at a mountain with a waterfall deep in the woods.
This was the place the signal from Brainy\'s seed, so this was where Lin Fan came.
When he arrived, he didn\'t see anything out of place, but when he called out, "I\'m here!", there were suddenly a bunch of rough looking men that appeared.
They quickly surrounded him, but they were all on guard towards him.
Lin Fan just revealed a faint smile and suddenly pointed to one of the men, causing him to immediately lose control of his body and fall to the ground.
The man who fell to the ground wildly looked around trying to find the source of this phenomenon while all the other men around him looked at him in shock.
Lin Fan just smiled as he said, "Now, will you lead me to your boss, or do I have to beat you some more first?"
But then there was a voice that rang out, "Enough!"
Looking over at the source of this voice, Lin Fan saw the bandit leader walking over.
The bandit leader took a deep look at Lin Fan before shouting, "All of you retreat!"
Then he came up to Lin Fan and said, "Does the young master want to come up to our mountain for a rest?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, but remembering how Lin Fan had immobilized one of them just by pointing at them, it made sense.
The bandit leader and his two adjutants brought Lin Fan up to the mountain and through the waterfall to come into a base hidden behind it. This cave inside the waterfall wasn\'t just a normal cave, it was an absolutely giant cave with a large grotto inside, with many different doors carved into the walls.
When Lin Fan saw this, he couldn\'t help feeling excited since this cave seemed like a hidden base.
The bandit leader led Lin Fan and Angela into the main hall before heading to a side room which had a large table and several chairs around it. The bandit leader signaled for them to sit down and once everyone was seated, the bandit leader spoke first.
This time, he was no longer as polite as before, but he also didn\'t waste any time, "What did you do to me?"
Lin Fan just casually said, "It isn\'t much, it\'s just a special technique that I\'m using to control you."
Once he finished talking, the leader and the two adjutants felt their body losing control temporarily before regaining control of their bodies.
The bandit leader and the adjutants looked at each other with dark looks before the leader said, "What do you want?"
At this, Lin Fan revealed a wide smile, but of course it was his normal smile which just scared the three sitting across from him.
After what had happened with the Feng Family in Snow Wind City, Lin Fan knew that he had been too careless. The Feng Family had ties in the underworld of Snow Wind City, which had allowed them to easily capture his family.
Lin Fan knew that if he wanted to protect himself, he didn\'t just need power, he also needed to build up his forces, both in the light and in the dark.
Now that these bandits had shown up in front of him, of course he wasn\'t just going to turn them down.
Especially since Brainy had just broken through and he wanted to test his might.
The leader of these bandits was in the Platinum Realm, which was evident by how he had been able to match Lin Fan in a fight, even if he did end up losing in the end.
But Brainy had just broken through to the Platinum Realm as well, which allowed it to spread its seeds into the Platinum Realm bandit leader.
Brainy\'s main method of cultivation was by draining energy from its puppets to use for its cultivation. The puppets that were still in use would slowly provide energy for Brainy while the puppets that were destroyed had all their energy absorbed by Brainy.
During this period, Brainy had sent out puppets to kill and parasitize various beasts outside Snow Wind City and it had finally absorbed enough energy to break through to the next realm.
It was the bad luck of the bandits that Brainy had broken through just the day before they decided to attack.
Back on the airship, Lin Fan had whispered into the bandit leader\'s ear, "If you don\'t want to die, you should retreat."
Then he had Brainy use the seed that it had sent out to paralyze the bandit leader for just a split second which made the bandit leader\'s eyes open wide in shock.
When the bandit leader pulled away, Lin Fan hadn\'t forgotten to say, "I\'ll be seeing you soon."
That was why the bandit leader wasn\'t surprised to see Lin Fan and was even courteous to him at first, he knew that Lin Fan would definitely come find him for something.
Now that he was trapped in a room with him, the bandit leader was filled with fear, but he kept himself calm on the surface.
Lin Fan had the same smile as he said, "I want you to come under me."
That was right, Lin Fan wanted these bandits to work for him!
He had seen how these bandits treated their captives, all of the women were left untouched and the only thing they seemed interested in was the goods.
Even when that bandit had tried doing something to Angela, the bandit leader had been about to make a move, but he didn\'t make it in time as Lin Fan had already crippled that one bandit.
It seemed like while this bandit leader didn\'t have full control over his men, he did have some prestige among them and he was quite the honourable person.
That was just one of the reasons Lin Fan wanted these bandits under him.
The bandit leader\'s eyes opened wide in shock as he said, "You want us to work for you?"
But then he quickly narrowed his eyes and looked at Lin Fan as he said, "What benefits will there be if we work for you?"
Lin Fan\'s smile turned a bit cold as he said, "Well, first, life is very important. Don\'t you think so?"
The three bandits all opened their eyes wide open, but they said nothing.
They already knew that Lin Fan could kill them all in an instant, that was why they dared to sit here so calmly with him. If he wanted to kill them, he would have done so already.
But then Lin Fan said, "But that\'s not the kind of relationship I want. I want you to sincerely work for me."
The bandit leader was silent for a bit before he said, "Then I\'ll ask this once again, what benefits can you give us?"
Lin Fan looked right into the bandit leader\'s eyes as he said, "I can help you take the revenge you want the most."
The bandit leader felt like he had been seen through and the two adjutants also looked at Lin Fan in shock.
Most people wouldn\'t care about the backstory of a bandit, but Lin Fan was different.
This was a man who was in his early twenties and yet was in the Platinum Realm, there must be a story in his past. This kind of man was definitely someone who would be treated as a treasure in any royal family, yet here he was running around as a bandit instead.
The bandit leader took a deep look at Lin Fan and somehow he felt like he could believe him. Maybe it was because of the strange power that Lin Fan used or maybe it was because of the aura that he felt from Angela. This aura was similar to one that he had felt before, it was the same aura he had felt from his father, the head of the family…
Lin Fan could tell that the bandit leader was wavering, so he raised his hand to the table and brought out three sets of armours, "And if you\'re willing to work for me, there\'s no lack of rewards."
The bandit leader was shocked to see these three sets of armour. It was a set of Gold Realm Armour and two sets of Silver Realm Armour.
When he was back at his family, these things didn\'t seem that rare, but now that he was a bandit, he knew just how rare these things were. He had been running around as a bandit for two years now and he was still using a tattered set of armour.
The bandit leader reached out his hand to touch the armour and feeling the quality before he said, "Alright, we can serve as your subordinates, but are you willing to listen to my story first?"
