Chapter 303: Chapter 302: The Mantis Stalks the Cicada

"This is the legendary Resurrection Island. The entire island is enveloped by powerful thunderclouds. The closer one gets, the stronger the ancient aura becomes.

The nearer one approaches, the more intense the awe-inspiring power of heaven and earth becomes, causing one to involuntarily bow down in worship.

"We’re here."

Lin Hao took a deep breath, waiting for the wild wolf to leave before turning around.

This was Resurrection Island, a place full of mystery and endless treasures.

It was also a place where Lin Hao could break through to the Anti-void, even the Sky-breaking Realm!

"With the speed of this ship, it won’t take two hours before we enter the thundercloud storm. What should we do next?"

Inside the room, Song Qinghong and the others could hardly wait, staring at the distant thunderclouds in the sky, eager to enter immediately.

"Right now?"

Lin Hao smiled slightly, picked up the watch given by the wild wolf, and turned to walk out the door.

"Now, naturally, we should do what the spoilt second generations ought to do."

After all, Lin Hao decided to follow the lead of those second generations; he couldn’t just stay honestly in the cabin. It was necessary to go out and around.

As for the wild wolf, would a pampered second generation care what a bodyguard says?

The huge ship could indeed be said to have everything.

At this moment, besides people worshiping the Resurrection Island thunderclouds on the deck, many others were still enjoying themselves in the ship’s banquet hall.

Beautiful women and strong liquor, always the themes for adventurers.

When Lin Hao left the banquet hall, there were alluring, twisting bodies everywhere.

Since ancient times, the places with the most well-informed gossip have always been tea houses and taverns.

This banquet hall, at this time, was also a gathering of followers from the Three Religions, where all sorts of information was spreading.

Lin Hao stopped at the bar, picked up a small drink, and listened attentively to the voices coming from all around.

"This time the East Atlantic Company has lost a great deal, being robbed of hundreds of tons of Primordial Stones, and now they have to open up Resurrection Island. I’ve heard that they’ve already pulled most of their people back."

"Pulled back? Where did they go?"

"To Transshipment Island, haha, they really lost their wives and armies earlier by not willing to use their own experts against Lin Hao. Now they have to concede Resurrection Island."

"Now, Resurrection Island truly is a paradise for cultivators from all over the Earth."

"But then again, Resurrection Island is no good place. My friend, you look elegant and have an extraordinary bearing; perhaps you are a fortunate person. How about learning about the latest map of Resurrection Island? It has the most detailed distribution of dangerous areas and mineral distribution data, reasonably priced – initially it was a hundred thousand dollars, now only $998. For $998, you won’t get cheated or regret it; it’s a real bargain!"

Unexpectedly, in just a short few days, people had already begun selling maps.

It seems Resurrection Island is far more dangerous than people expect.

"It seems their maps are more complete than ours?" Song Qinghong went out for a stroll and then came back holding a map chip.

Lin Hao glanced at it, curling his lips disdainfully: "That’s probably produced by the East Atlantic Company. The data on it, I fear, is a mix of truth and fiction..."

This was something Song Qinghong hadn’t expected. He turned, astonished, looking back at those selling maps, hardly able to believe: "Are they from the East Atlantic Company?"

"Exactly!"

Before Lin Hao could speak, a white youth burst out from the side, grinning and raising his wine glass to Lin Hao: "They are from the East Atlantic Company, those maps are only useful for fooling idiots. To dare sell them for 988 US dollars, damn, even if they were a dollar, I wouldn’t buy them."

Saying this, the white youth downed his wine in one gulp, and added with a lingering taste: "Only fools would buy them."

Beside him, Song Qinghong’s face turned dark. If it weren’t for Lin Hao telling him to hide his identity, he would have slapped the white youth right there.

"By the way, bro, are you from Huaxia?" The white youth glanced at Lin Hao: "What’s your name?"

"Mu Ri." Lin Hao chuckled and scrutinized the white youth as well: "I remember you, you’ve sent me a card before, you are... from the Louis family."

"Correct! Let me introduce myself, I am Louis Diobus, the forty-ninth generation of the direct lineage of the Louis family. Do you know? The moment I saw you, I really admired you. Know why?"

Louis Diobus was smiling at Lin Hao, but his hand suddenly slapped down behind him, landing on the pert and curvy buttocks of a waitress walking by.

That beautiful waitress turned her head to give Diobus a glance, leaving him a flirtatious look before quickly vanishing into the crowd.

"We have similar tastes, you know?" Louis Diobus continued smiling at Lin Hao after the beautiful waitress had left: "So, there’s something I want to tell you, you would definitely be interested."

"Oh? What is it?"

Lin Hao also diverted his gaze from where the beautiful waitress disappeared and looked at Louis Diobus with interest: "Is it about asking me out to flirt with beauties?"

"No." Louis Diobus shook his head: "A big business deal, let’s do it together."

"I’m not interested, I have plenty of money," Lin Hao immediately shook his head.

"It’s not about money, but Primordial Stones. How many Primordial Stones do you have?" Louis Diobus leaned in, a mysterious look in his eyes, whispering: "Let’s go catch Lin Hao together."

Catch Lin Hao?

This really confused Lin Hao.

These big families, including the East Atlantic Company, spread the news to capture him — that was understandable given their capabilities.

But why would these scions, especially from major families, want to catch Lin Hao?

Was it because they thought their lives were too long?

"Are you dumb?" Lin Hao looked at Louis Diobus.

"How could I be?" Louis Diobus smacked his lips: "The major families and the East Atlantic Company are all spending massive amounts to find Lin Hao, including many families and powers from Huaxia. What are they all after? Isn’t it the treasures Lin Hao possesses?"

"I know this. However, with our capabilities, even if we find Lin Hao, we wouldn’t be able to do much to him, right?" Lin Hao shook his head, a look of incredulity on his face.

"Are you stupid?" Louis Diobus pursed his lips, further excited, and whispered into Lin Hao’s ear: "Lin Hao is an amazing person, a genius, right?"

"Yeah, I’ve also heard he’s very handsome." Lin Hao nodded, in complete agreement.

"A genius would definitely not miss going to Resurrection Island, right? Maybe he’s already hiding on this ship." Louis Diobus added.

"Hmm, I agree." Lin Hao nodded.

"If he’s going to seek treasures, and we discover him just when he and the powerful beings guarding the treasures are both heavily injured after a fight, and when he’s severely injured and fleeing, we suddenly make our move..." Louis jumped almost excitedly: "Wouldn’t all the treasures on Lin Hao be ours, and we could also send Lin Hao’s body back and claim the bounty from the major families? Isn’t this a profitable deal?"

What a plan of waiting for the mantis to catch the cicada while the oriole stalks behind! These scions of major families, not bad at all.

Lin Hao looked at the youth in front of him, nodding vigorously.
