Chapter 144: Mind Possession and Silver Iron Ore

This was too sick, too sick.

This thing could actually be used like this.

The corners of Lin Ye’s mouth curved up. His red eyes turned and focused on a white dot on the screen.

Whoosh—

His vision spinned. Immediately after, a blue and lustrous mine gradually appeared in front of him.

At the same time, far away in the blue iron ore mine, Lin Dachui’s expression was slightly dazed. Although he quickly recovered, his face turned pale.

“Who is it?” A shocking wave surged in his mind.

Just now, he had felt a powerful consciousness intruding, directly stripping away his will and controlling his body.

Moreover, this consciousness had yet to go away and remained in his sea of consciousness.

However, to his disbelief, his body did not reject this extra presence. Instead…

It seemed to be at ease with the presence, as if he was being embraced arms of Father.

“Dachui, it’s me.”

Over at the territory, Lin Ye suppressed his laughter and spoke softly.

This voice passed through the veins of Heart’s Web and instantly passed through the 10,000-meter forest, entering Lin Dachui’s mind.

Its speed was comparable to a phone call from his original world.

“This voice!”

Lin Dachui stared. He was too familiar with this voice.

He quickly scanned his surroundings.

Other than the blue iron ore everywhere, the native workers who were mining, and the blacksmiths who were extracting the ore, there was no one else.

With apprehension, he probed, “Is this my lord? Where are you? Why can’t I see you?”

“I’m in your heart.” With that, Lin Ye couldn’t help but laugh.

He could imagine the shadow he cast on Lin Dachui psychology. He must think that he was hallucinating.

“My lord, don’t scare me please!”

As expected, Lin Dachui shivered and knelt down, wailing miserably.

“Brother Chui, what are you doing? Why did you kneel down for no reason?”

“Boss, why are you crying? Who bullied you? Tell me. I’ll kill him for you!”

The native workers and blacksmiths who were mining came over and asked about his well-being.

“Which bastard just said that he wanted to kill me, hmm?”

In the next moment, Lin Dachui suddenly stood up and looked over with a rather imposing gaze.

Everyone’s hearts skipped a beat. For some reason, they felt as if they had seen their lord.

That gaze, that gaze… it was too sharp, too vivid.

Everyone was scared stiff.

“It’s not me!” Lin Dachui laughed bitterly in his heart.

At this moment, he finally understood that the person who appeared in his mind and was controlling his speech was definitely his lord.

Other than him, there was no one else.

“It was just a joke. Don’t mind me, I’m leaving.” Lin Ye smiled, planning to cut off his connection with Lin Dachui.

At this moment, he had gained some basic understanding over the Body Possession Technique.

That’s right, this was the new ability derived from the secondary transformation of Heart’s Web. As long as it was within its range, he could impose his consciousness on others.

It was similar to the big bosses of the Blood Clan. The difference was that the bosses of the Blood Clan were connected through bloodlines while he was connected through loyalty. As long as the person was his loyalist, he would be able to possess them.

Of course, this kind of possession was only a spiritual possession. He could temporarily communicate with the owner and control the other party’s body.

As for ordinary people, it had yet to be tested so he wasn’t too sure.

“My lord, wait!” At this moment, Lin Dachui shouted loudly in his heart.

“Mm, what’s the matter?” Lin Ye was curious.

“It’s like this, my lord. I have something to report to you.”

As he spoke, Lin Dachui ignored his subordinates’ questions and excitedly rushed into the depths of the mine.

“Boss… what happened?”

“Is he going crazy?”

“Don’t spout nonsense if you don’t know anything. Be careful or Boss will come out and punish you.”

“Let’s go and follow him to see what’s going on.”

A group of confused native workers and blacksmiths followed.

In the depths of the mines, the deeper they went, the darker it became, and the number of blue iron ores decreased.

When he stepped into a certain depth, the blue iron ore completely disappeared, replaced by a glow of purple that seemed to get brighter the deeper they went.

“Purple Iron Mine?”

Using the faint yellowish glow from the cave to see, Lin Ye cried out in surprise.

Was there such a good thing like buying one and getting the other for free?

“We’ve only just started. Watch on, the good things are still at the back.” Lin Dachui smiled mysteriously and led him in quickly.

A few minutes later.

Whoosh—

The light in the tunnel suddenly brightened. Within it was a natural pit.

The pit was the size of a basketball court and it was surrounded by gray stone walls.

Above the rock wall, especially at the top of the pit, was a large amount of ore emitting purple and silver light.

Densely packed in the pitch-black mine, it was like stars in the sky, beautiful and magnificent.

“F*ck! There’s even silver iron ore!!!”

Lin Ye gasped and was instantly stunned by the ‘beautiful scene’ in front of him.

“Isn’t it pretty? Hehe, when I first saw the mine, I had a feeling since the quality of the blue iron ore mine here was too high. It’s definitely not like those ordinary blue iron ores, looking more like some hidden ore veins that I’ve seen in the underworld.”

“On the surface, they look like a blue iron ore mine, but in fact, it might be purple iron ore, or even the undeniably precious silver iron ore.”

Lin Dachui chuckled. “We were lucky and this could be considered as having a huge success. We have all three types of ore, and both the quantity and quality is quite high. In the short term, it should be enough for us to upgrade 10,000 sets or even 100,000 sets of Blue, Purple, and Silver Tier equipment.”

“Good, good, this is awesome!” Lin Ye was overjoyed.

He had just finished upgrading his bunker and would soon be able finish recruiting 100,000 people. By then, the value of the ore mine would shine quickly.

As long as they reached Advanced Blue, Purple, or Silver equipment, he could directly use the ores to upgrade them into top tier equipment.

“Dachui, I will give you an additional 2,000 workers later. No, 3,000 native workers and 3,000 blacksmiths. You must mine out more ore as soon as possible. I need to forge 100,000 sets of top tier Class 2 to 4 equipment,” Lin Ye said excitedly.

“3,000+3,000, 6,000 people!!!” Lin Dachui was shocked. “My lord, since when did we have so many people?”

“Since just now.”

Lin Ye laughed. “Alright, I won’t disturb you anymore. Before the Four Sacred Halls descend, I will send someone to pick you up and prepare as soon as possible.”

“I understand, my lord. I’ll be prepared for it and wait for your call at any time,” Lin Dachui said.

“Okay, see you later.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ye’s presence disappeared from his mind.

Sensing that his sea of consciousness had returned to normal, Lin Dachui immediately laughed out loud.

The native workers and blacksmiths behind him looked at each other.

“Did our boss suddenly go crazy…”

“I think so. What a pity. A normal person suddenly becoming stupid.”

“But that’s good too. This way, I can replace Boss’s position. From now on, I’ll be the chief blacksmith. Hahaha!”

“Boss, don’t worry about sister-in-law in the underworld. From now on, your wife will be mine…”

…

“F*ck you all! How dare you mock me! I’ll beat you all to death!”

Lin Dachui came back to his senses. He raised his hammer in anger and charged over.

On the other side, Lin Ye cut off the connection.

Coincidentally, the system sent a hint.

It was Li Xinyi and ten other newcomers. They had offered 100% of their loyalty at this critical moment and became loyalists.

He swept his gaze across them.

The people who found the answer to his problems were Zhang Liang, Bai Yitong, Dong Wei, Chen Ye, Zhang Bao’er, and Chu Meng. They were doing their best to promote the benefits of being loyalists to the newcomers.

For example, food, living conditions, accommodations,and the Four Sacred Halls at twilight…

In short, all kinds of sugarcoated words were thrown at them.

Most of the newcomers were dizzy from listening to their story. With the help of a few shills, they unknowingly offered their loyalty.

“How thoughtful of them.”

This scene made Lin Ye tear up.

My people were all great people!

Therefore, this time, he went all out. He possessed more than ten people at once and thanked Zhang Liang and the others in their minds.

“My lord?”

At first, they were all shocked.

However, they quickly recovered. One of them was extremely excited. The lord was getting stronger, just like a god.

This filled them with confidence in this uncertain future.

After a few words, Lin Ye removed himself from their minds.

He narrowed his eyes and felt a little regretful. “The most I can connect to is twelve people at once, and the its range is till the edge of the territory. If it exceeds 20,000 meters square of the territory, its effects will drop drastically… It seems that I’m still too weak.”

“I can’t let myself get carried away. I have to continue leveling up. In the future, if I can connect to ten million people at the same time, or even just all my citizens, everyone’s consciousness will be interlinked. Information, intelligence, and internal relations will all become one. That would be the true might!”

After thinking that, he turned to look at the notification from Hint.

The advancement of Heart’s Web had given him enough surprises. As a top-tier talent, Hint should not disappoint him.
