Abyss Summoner

"Master, thank you for giving me this opportunity, I will go through fire and water!"

Hammerhead Hat slightly bowed his head, then said humbly.

Chen Feng nodded and glanced at this man. The man felt a bit intimidated under his gaze and quickly bowed his head, saying, "Master, what would you like me to do?"

Chen Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, a trace of killing intent and a special pressure in his gaze.

That was the effect of a fearful gaze.

The smart man in front seemed a bit afraid, a fine cold sweat finally appearing on his once serene face, but he still forced a smile.

Chen Feng nodded lightly and said in a deep voice, "Some time later, people will naturally come here to take charge of the construction. Your only task is to keep things in order here. I will leave enough warriors for you. If chaos breaks out, deploy them to help you suppress it!"

Help.

Order.

These are two different concepts.

Hammerhead Hat is no novice; as someone who has been in the business world for twenty years, he clearly knows that Chen Feng can’t possibly grant him enough authority right away.

Rather than the ruler here, he is more like a puppet or a manager.

The opponent was more savvy than he imagined.

Chen Feng gave him a look of appreciation and said:

"Apart from ensuring safety here, you’re responsible for collecting useful intelligence from the surrounding area. I will specially allocate personnel and resources for you. Whether the information is useful or not, as long as there are significant rumors around, you send them all to me."

"As long as the intelligence is useful, you don’t need to worry about the rewards. I won’t treat you badly."

This place is a transit station, and Chen Feng intends to develop it into a barrier, collecting information when advancing, and serving as a buffer zone when retreating.

By then, even if changes do occur, the flames of war won’t directly burn within his territory.

Hammerhead Hat originally thought he was just a puppet, but he did not expect that Chen Feng would also entrust him with the authority to collect intelligence. His face revealed a bit of surprise, showing excitement, murmuring, "I... I will definitely live up to the master’s expectations..."

Having struggled for so many years, he knows that as long as he can achieve something, it won’t be long before he mixes into the other party’s circle.

Yes.

Even now, he has become the manager of the port, but he has no relationship with Chen Feng, because he doesn’t know who the other party is or where he comes from, he knows nothing about these most basic pieces of information.

Only by truly understanding the other party’s situation does Hammerhead Hat really integrate into the other party’s group.

But one thing.

Hammerhead Hat is a businessman, perhaps with speculation in his blood, he instinctively sensed Chen Feng’s strength. The other party was a big shot, and he secretly vowed, that no matter the cost, he needs to hold onto him.

"Well..."

Hammerhead Hat rubbed his hands, showing a hesitant expression.

Chen Feng tapped his fingers lightly on the table, saying, "If there’s something, just say it."

Hammerhead Hat bowed his head with a fawning expression and said, "Master, speaking of news, I do have one. A short while ago, in the sea area over twenty miles ahead, an island suddenly appeared."

"Hmm? An island?"

Chen Feng raised an eyebrow, partly because Hammerhead Hat indeed had some secrets, and partly because an island couldn’t just appear out of nowhere, indicating it might have a significant connection with the Dimensional Rift.

"Yes, it appeared suddenly, originally not there when we went fishing the previous day, but the next day, there was news of an island. Some people volunteered to explore, but they vanished without a trace; thirty people in total, not one returned." At this point, Hammerhead Hat showed a hint of fear, clearly this incident cast a shadow on him.

"The White Dragon hasn’t made any moves?" Chen Feng asked.

Giant Dragon.

This is a creature with a very strong territorial consciousness.

For the Giant Dragon, it cannot accept unfamiliar forces approaching itself. Under normal circumstances, even if there is something on it, it would undoubtedly destroy it or conquer it.

Hammerhead Hat thought carefully and said, "You mean the Dragon King... no, the White Dragon? If I recall correctly, it also went to that island once but returned soon after. It was quite agitated that day, devoured three young adults before flying away to calm down, and while flying, I clearly remember, its belly had such a long wound, still dripping blood."

At a climactic point, Hammerhead Hat gestured a length of about half a meter with his hand.

Things got a bit strange.

The suddenly appearing island, the mysteriously missing explorers, even the Giant Dragon hadn’t fared well and fled injured.

"Where did the island come from?"

"What creatures are on it?"

"Even the Giant Dragon is hard to contend with... it must not be a simple character."

Chen Feng fell into thought.

This posture lasted for a while, and seeing this, a young woman nearby had a flash of inspiration, cautiously brought him a bottle of cold water, deliberately revealing her white cleavage in front of Chen Feng as she laid down the water bottle. But Chen Feng merely glanced lightly, then took the bottle and drank a sip.

Power is a man’s best partner. With strength, these women won’t necessarily flock to him like moths to a flame, but with power, many women will try to seduce him.

Chen Feng now had no mind to vent on an unfamiliar woman; the cold water flowing down his chest cooled him off a bit.

"Send people to place surveillance around; that area must be a key observation point. If there’s any news, be sure to inform me immediately."

Know oneself, know one’s enemy.

Chen Feng wouldn’t recklessly venture onto the island; though he slew the White Dragon, it doesn’t mean he’s truly invincible in this world.

Being cautious is never wrong.

Chen Feng looked at Hammerhead Hat with appreciation; no matter what, the other party was quite savvy. He sensed that if they managed to successfully explore that island, it would offer him significant benefits.

"Hmm, this information holds some value. Go and receive your reward, some bug meat, firearms; I’ll have them sent to your room."

Chen Feng wouldn’t be stingy with those who had contributed, at this moment, he directly rewarded Hammerhead Hat with decent benefits.

As for Hammerhead Hat, he immediately showed an excited expression, bent down deeply, knowing he had bet right.
