Chapter 342: Visiting The Lin Family (Part 2)
Kenny Lin seemed to know he couldn’t avoid it.
His face remained cold, with emotionless tone, he said: "There’s nothing to say."
Amalia smiled at him, "You know everything about my family and me, but I don’t know anything about yours. Isn’t that unfair?"
After a moment of silence, Kenny Lin spoke, "I have three older brothers and one older sister. They’re all married, and the oldest child is twenty years old, while the youngest is seven or eight. The ones in school stay in dormitories and don’t come back home very often."
Amalia didn’t push him to talk about things he didn’t want to discuss.
She nodded her head and said, "What about your father? Why haven’t I seen him?"
It was her first time visiting the Lin family, so naturally, she wouldn’t know everything.
However, Amalia’s parents often visited the Lin family, so she knew what she needed to know and was prepared to find out what she didn’t.
"He’s stationed in the central disaster zone," Kenny Lin replied nonchalantly.
Amalia was intrigued when she learned about the central disaster zone for the first time.
"Does the central disaster zone still need your father to guard it?"
Seeing her interest, Kenny Lin explained, "It’s not just my father; there’s many powerhouse who would go there. The central disaster zone is different from other disaster zones. Many mutated creatures there have gained intelligence. If the central disaster zone isn’t guarded properly, these creatures will flood into human cities, and causing great disasters."
"But the central disaster zone is also an opportunity. Despite the high danger, many spiritual cultivators still go there one after another. Large families also like to send exploration teams there to search for opportunities and resources."
"I understand the opportunities, but what about resources? Don’t other disaster zones have them too?"
Kenny Lin understood her implication, "It’s different. The mutated creatures that have gained intelligence grow a special type of crystal core in their brains, which is also could be used as a material for refining an artifacts."
Amalia’s pupils contracted, "Are you saying it’s material for advanced level spiritual artifacts?"
After deciding to pursue the path of an Artificer, she had read many books about artifact refining materials in her soltice ring.
Naturally, she knew that the higher the grade of the artifact, the rarer the materials would be.
Especially for advanced level spiritual artifacts, although they were both spiritual artifacts, the difference between advanced level and intermediate level was very significant.
She had read in the books that the brilliance of the spiritual artifact was no longer the only criterion; there was also something called a crystal core, which was an important prerequisite.
This crystal core was only found in mutated creatures, but she hadn’t discovered any of these crystal core in the mutated creatures she had killed before.
At that time, she thought the current Earth didn’t have crystal core.
She couldn’t find any relevant information about it on internet, and considering the demand for artifacts among spiritual cultivators, even beginner level spiritual artifacts were considered treasures.
She speculated that advanced level spiritual artifacts should be extremely rare, and even for some big families, they might not necessarily possess them.
In fact, she had never heard of any family head owning an advanced level spiritual artifact.
Her guess wasn’t wrong.
Advanced level spiritual artifacts were indeed very rare, not only because few Artificer could refine them but also because the crystal core as the important material to refine them could only found in the central disaster zone.
For some reason, ever since the disaster erupted, although disaster zones had appeared one after another around the world, not even those classified as Level S Disaster Zones had produced mutated creatures with intelligence.
If it weren’t for this, those top human leaders wouldn’t have been able to keep the existence of the central disaster zone under wraps.
It should be noted that mutated creatures with intelligence were no different from humans.
They couldn’t speak human language, but they could also communicate with each other with their own language, which was what was referred to as the beast language.
The .utated creatures with intelligence could also command those mutated creatures without intelligence.
Once all mutated creatures united, it wouldn’t be good news for human race.
Not to mention land-type mutated creatures, even the creatures in the oceans numbered in the tens of millions, and if they’re combined, they might outnumber human race.
"The materials from the central disaster zone are also have better quality than those from other disaster zonee," Kenny Lin said.
Amalia nodded, "I can guess. So, you’re saying that everyone else in your family who wasn’t seen at home went to the disaster area, including your eldest brother’s son?"
Kenny Lin also nodded, "He didn’t like going to Heavenly Path University. After growing up, he followed his grandfather to the central disaster zpne. The two of them rarely come back home, we usually communicating through communicators."
Amalia asked, "And your mother?"
The chill emanating from Kenny Lin’s body grew colder.
Seeing his reaction, Amalia chuckled, "You didn’t think I’d forget about it while chatting, did you?"
Kenny Lin really did think so.
Amalia would only warrant two words from him: naive.
"Alright, if you don’t want to talk about it, I won’t force you. It’s just a matter of time anyway. Tell me about those two people from the Yoder family who wanted to kill me. The Lin family head said they’re not from the Yoder family. What’s the story there?"
Kenny Lin breathed a sigh of relief, and unusually proactive at the moment, "They’re the twin brothers who work as henchmen of the Yoder family. They’re not openly associated with the Yoder family; only families who’ve investigated them privately know about their relationship with Raithwall Yoder. If Raithwall Yoder dares to send them to kill you, it means he’s not afraid of retaliation."
Amalia asked again, "And what about Florentino Yoder? What’s his deal? He seems to be at odds with Raithwall Yoder."
"With so many siblings in the Yoder family, there was intense internal strife before Raithwall Yoder became the family head. When someone rises, someone falls," he explained simply.
Amalia understood the gist.
After Raithwall Yoder took the helm, he undoubtedly did everything possible to suppress his siblings.
And Florentino Yoder was likely one of them.
So when Florentino Yoder saved her, was he hoping for her help to fight against Raithwall Yoder?
But the tone Florentino Yoder used when speaking to hrr that day was clearly much more intimate, unlike someone whose seeking common interests and enemies.
This puzzle remained until Yolanda Yoder came knocking on the door, and Amalia finally know the reason.
