Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 271: Chapter 271 Heading to the Island Nation (Four Updates)

Upon hearing Elder Long’s words, everyone in the hall was stunned.

This young man was actually a special advisor in the Dragon Group; how could that be possible?

Elder Long held immense prestige in the Capital City, and his words could not be false.

”Elder Long, although he is a special advisor, this matter can’t just be overlooked,” Chen Li said coldly.

”Your son interfered with Lin Chen’s case. If you have an issue, you can report it to the higher-ups. Also, while the forces of the Capital City are gathered here, I speak on behalf of the Dragon Group, be it Lin Chen or Su Xiaobei, if any force or family dares to hinder our official duties in the future, they should consider the consequences themselves.” Elder Long’s words were full of dominance, causing all the families and powers present to feel a chill in their hearts.

Chen Li’s face turned even more iron blue. Although the Chen family was powerful, they did not dare to openly confront the Dragon Group, knowing well the consequences of such actions.

Chen Ling had died, turning the wedding into a funeral, and Lin Chen and Su Xiaobei left the hotel under the protection of the Dragon Group.

The incidents at the wedding spread instantly across the Capital City, and Lin Chen became the talk of the city among the rich second-generation circles.

Rumors, both laughable and pitiful, circulated that Lin Chen specifically targeted rich second-generations and should be avoided upon sight.

At the Dragon Group headquarters, Elder Long looked rather somber.

”Elder Long, did you urgently summon me here for something?” Lin Chen asked, puzzled.

Elder Long nodded, ”Lin Chen, I need to introduce you to someone.”

As he spoke, Lin Chen and Elder Long entered a room.

Inside the room, several medical staff members were busily moving about, and a person lay on a hospital bed.

Seeing the person lying on the hospital bed, Lin Chen’s gaze sharpened.

It was Mage Mu Yun lying there.

”How is he here and with such severe injuries?”

A bad premonition crossed Lin Chen’s mind.

”Recently, Anna and others were executing a secret mission and accidentally encountered this person being pursued by the Dark Alliance. They then intervened and rescued him,” Elder Long explained.

”The Dark Alliance, is it the group associated with the Ninth Prince?” Lin Chen asked.

”Yes, he’s been in critical condition ever since the rescue and has been calling out your name while unconscious; that’s why I called you here to see if you recognize him,” Elder Long said.

”Mage Mu Yun is a friend of my father. Speaking of which, were there no other casualties?” Lin Chen inquired.

Elder Long shook his head; just then, a doctor approached.

”How is the situation?” Elder Long asked.

The doctor removed his mask and shook his head, ”He’s been severely poisoned, and it has spread to his heart; I’m afraid he might not make it.”

Lin Chen quickly walked to the bedside, activated his X-ray vision, and all of Mage Mu Yun’s internal organs were visible before his eyes.

”Damn!” The mage had multiple injuries, but the most fatal was a poisoned needle in his chest.

The poison had already invaded the heart, and he appeared to be on the brink of death.

Lin Chen frowned deeply, searching his mind for a treatment option.

However, Mage Mu Yun’s injuries were too severe, leaving no chance for recovery.

Lin Chen knew that Mage Mu Yun was his father’s close friend. His being injured and coming to the Capital City to find him must be related to his father.

”System, is there any way to save the mage?” Lin Chen asked.

”Host, the patient’s injuries are too severe and beyond treatment,” the system indeed provided a negative response.

Suddenly, Mage Mu Yun woke from his coma, and upon seeing Lin Chen, appeared quite agitated, opening his mouth as if he wanted to say something.

”System, is there any way to enable him to speak, even if only for a few minutes?” Lin Chen knew the mage must have something urgent to tell him, which is why he showed such an expression.

”Yes, but you only have one minute,” the system said.

Lin Chen nodded, ”Okay.”

At that moment, a blue light entered the Mage’s body, and his eyes suddenly brightened.

”Lin Chen, your father has been captured by the forces of the Dark Covenant. He should now be at their base in the Island Nation. This item was left for you by your father. Keep it safe...”

The Mage took out a blood-stained parchment scroll from his bosom and handed it to Lin Chen.

Although the system had activated all of the Mage’s potential, Mu Yun’s injuries were too severe. Clearly, he had more to say, but Mu Yun passed away with lingering regrets.

”Mage Mu Yun, rest assured, I will avenge you,” Lin Chen said coldly as he closed the Mage’s eyes with his hand.

Lin Chen’s gaze fell on the parchment scroll in his hand. He discovered that the scroll appeared to be a treasure map, and at the top of the map were the large characters ’Diagram of the Five Elements’.

And at the center of the map, a fire symbol was drawn.

Could this really be a treasure map? Lin Chen pondered briefly but found no answers, so he stored the treasure map in the space of the Tianyan Divine Eye.

After arranging the affairs of Mage Mu Yun, Lin Chen entered Elder Dragon’s office.

”Elder Dragon, I would like to take a trip to the Island Nation,” he said.

”What?” Elder Dragon was taken aback upon hearing Lin Chen’s words.

”Lin Chen, the Island Nation is different from Capital City. The Dark Covenant’s Asian headquarters is located there. It might be very dangerous for you,” Elder Dragon said with concern.

”According to Mage Mu Yun, my father should be in the hands of the Dark Covenant. I must go and save him, so please provide me with information about the Dark Covenant,” Lin Chen said gravely.

Elder Dragon sighed, ”Alright, if you are determined to go, be very careful. I will have the members of the Dragon division fully cooperate with you.”

This file contains the information you need. I’ll give you half an hour to read it and then give it back to me.

Lin Chen smiled faintly, ”Half an hour? No need, just a few minutes will do.”

Soon, Lin Chen had flipped through the Dark Covenant’s materials, imprinting all of the information in his mind.

”Done,” Lin Chen said with a smile, handing back the files to Elder Dragon.

”You remembered everything so quickly?” Elder Dragon couldn’t help but be surprised.

Though there were many with good memory in the Dragon division, there were not many, like Lin Chen, who could finish speed-reading in such a short time.

”Yes!” Lin Chen nodded.

”When will you leave?” Elder Dragon asked.

”I’ll depart immediately.” Lin Chen knew the longer the delay, the more dangerous it would be, as his father’s life hung in the balance.

”Alright, I will arrange it right away,” Elder Dragon said, nodding his head.

”Thank you, Elder Dragon.” Lin Chen smiled and then stood up, heading straight to the airport.

Lin Chen was well aware of Mu Yun Mage’s strength. Whoever had injured him must be an exceptionally formidable and ruthless person.

Based on the injuries on Mu Yun’s body, the opponent was likely a master of poison, and the clues Elder Dragon provided were limited. Ultimately, to find his father, Lin Chen knew he had to figure things out on his own.

”Prince Nine, let’s settle our overall account this time,” Lin Chen said, his eyes flashing with coldness.

At D City in the Island Nation, Lin Chen sat at the bar and poured a Bloody Mary into his mouth.

The bartender curiously watched this strange man. If it were someone else, a cocktail like this would have knocked them out already, yet this man seemed unfazed.

”Another one!” Lin Chen snapped his fingers.

The bartender slid another well-made Bloody Mary toward Lin Chen.

Just as Lin Chen was about to reach for it, a delicate hand reached out and snatched the glass away first.
