After receiving the entirety of the ‘hint’ talent, Lin Ye opened the talent’s introduction.

Talent: Hint

Grade: Top (Grade Upgrade Method: Absorbing Energy from Talent Fragments of the same grade)

Level: 1 (Increases area of territory, the higher the level of the bunker, the higher the number of Zombie Souls it may consume.
With every increase, the talent will be enhanced)

Ability: Hint, Warning, Treasure Seeking, Karma Prediction, etc.
(Current effective radius is 100 meters)

Coincidentally, the system sent a notification.

“Friendly Hint: Your bunker has reached Level 6.
By using 120,000 Zombie Souls, your talent can be instantly upgraded to Level 6.”

“Current number of Zombie Souls is insufficient.
Please recharge as soon as possible!”

“It actually costs 120,000 Souls.
As expected of a top-class talent.
The cost of leveling it up is almost twice that of the Heart’s Web!”

Lin Ye took a look.
Not only was he not upset at the high cost of Zombie Souls needed, he was actually overjoyed by the news.

He had 100xReward.
For now, he had no interest in currency or equipment.

On the contrary, he was curious about these peerless talents.

It was a pity that he had just emptied his inventory by spending over a hundred thousand zombie souls and could not level the talent up for the time being.

However, it was not that there was no other way.
He could just destroy one of the haunted houses later to get enough.

Before leaving, he instructed Lin One and the others to remove half of the zombie converters from the territory.

When the time came, he would bury them around the Haunted Houses.
Once he cleared them, he would convert the corpses immediately.
He would kill the zombies and convert them simultaneously without wasting time.

Also, there was a mission from the system – to make a video with millions of likes.

It felt like something big was about to happen.

The Zombie Souls, treasure chests, and supplies all over the ground were videoed.

At the end, he even used the special skill of the Level 2 Lord’s Skin, Flying Meteor, to finish the video.

A million likes were a piece of cake.

A smile appeared on Lin Ye’s face.
“Forget it.
Let me try the ‘Hint’ talent first.”

With that, he activated the talent according to the description.

Whoosh—

In an instant, pitch black energy flowed out from the depths of his pupils, turning the white of his eyes black.

This state was similar to Heart’s Web and felt really strange.

It was somewhat similar to a domain.
With him as the center, everything within a hundred meters was like an electrocardiogram, sending back all sorts of information from time to time.

“Search for animals!” he chanted in his heart.

“Hint: There are 37,824 Red Striped Ants in the grass 72 meters southeast of you.”

“Hint: There are 5 three foot long blue carp playing by the river 97 meters southwest of you.”

….

His field of vision changed, and Lin Ye activated Heart’s Web again.

Sure enough, in the southeast direction, there were large numbers of red-striped ants 72 meters away, and there were blue carps 97 meters southwest.

After a few tries, he found out that the accuracy was almost 100%.

However, Lin Ye was not satisfied.

This function was similar to Heart’s Web.
The only difference was that Heart’s Web ability covered the entire map and swept across a larger area.

As for ‘Hint’, it was like a search bar.
If you wanted to look for something, you had to do it one by one.

“I’m going to try to use it to look for treasures!” Lin Ye said again.

Hint’s ability to search for treasures could be considered its greatest attraction to Lin Ye.

A moment later, he scanned the area within a hundred meters and received a message through his black pupils.

“Hint: 60 meters away from you, Human Lord Xun Mingyuan is running at a speed of 4m/s, slower than the average human.
He has a bronze treasure chest hidden in his Civilization Archive.”

“Hint: There are no treasure chests in this area.”

“Xun Mingyuan?” Lin Ye raised his eyebrows and asked Tru to move aside.

As expected, Xun Mingyuan, who was not riding the Wind Wolf, was panting heavily as he rushed over.

When he arrived, he was still bent over with his hands supporting his waist.
He panted as he looked at the lifeless Niu Wei regretfully.

“He really died!” He sighed.

After arriving in this world, human lives seemed to have become worthless.
Others had also become indifferent to deaths.

As he finished speaking, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

His lord’s eyes turned completely black, just like when Zhang Liang used his talent.
He was still staring at him blankly.

“My Lord, why are you looking at me?” He smiled awkwardly.

His black eyes were really scary.

“Old Xun, I heard that you hid a bronze treasure chest in your Civilization Archive?” Lin Ye asked with a smile.

“No, of course not!” Xun Mingyuan hurriedly shook his head as anxiety coursed through his veins.

God, how did the Lord find out?

“Oh, you really have one.” Lin Ye’s eyes lit up.

He had two talents activated right now.

He could see large amounts of purple and gray emotional particles coming from Xun Mingyuan’s head.

Purple represented anxiousness, while gray indicated that he was lying.

It was obvious at a glance that this person was not honest as well.

“Old Xun, you’ve lost your spot to enter the Four Sacred Halls tonight.” Lin Ye’s smile vanished as he spoke calmly.

“???” Xun Mingyuan was shocked.

The outside world was completely unaware of the news of the Four Sacred Halls, but it had long since spread throughout Lin Ye’s territory.

At midnight today, which would also be a few minutes after the protection mechanism ended.

Four Sacred Halls would descend all over the world.
This was a great opportunity for the rise of the human lords.

Among them, the most important was the Reflection Hall.

It was said that there was a high chance that it would help Human Lords awaken their talents.

Before this, it was fine if he didn’t know about it.
But now that he knew, wasn’t not letting him go worse than killing him?

Xun Mingyuan was no fool.
He immediately realized that his lie had been seen through by the lord.

He gritted his teeth and stomped his feet.
With the mindset that he would not be able to get better things without sacrificing something close to him, he said loudly, “My Lord is wise.
I do have a bronze treasure chest here.
I was just joking with you.”

“Treasure Chests belong to those who are capable.
Only someone as handsome, generous, and open-minded as this Lord is worthy of having such a noble object.”

As he spoke, he took out the treasure chest which he had kept for a long time and said solemnly, “I’m willing to offer it up to you!”

You’re indirectly scolding me!

Lin Ye cast a sidelong glance at Xun Mingyuan, looking at him cursing at him for his lowly interests and lousy character.

If this Great Lin had a lousy character, I would’ve left you to die.

Furthermore, as the lord of these people,

Wasn’t what’s yours mine?

Why would I need you to offer me something that was supposed to belong to me in the first place?

People who didn’t know better would think I owed you a favor.

“Old Xun, have some steamed buns and pickled vegetables for lunch.
Beef instant noodles are too nutritious.
Your body is so weak that you almost collapsed from exhaustion after running for a few hundred meters.
I’m really afraid that you won’t be able to handle it and it would be a pity if you were to die.
My toilet project still needs someone of your calibre to complete it.”

Lin Ye patted Xun Mingyuan’s shoulder and took the bronze treasure box.

“Ah, this…” Xun Mingyuan revealed an awkward expression.
He knew that his thoughts had been seen through.

At this moment, he was both nervous and worried.

He was afraid that in the future, the ‘generous’ Lord Lin would make things difficult for him.

“I’m just joking, look at how scared you are.” Lin Ye smiled and ignored him, temporarily putting away the bronze treasure chest.

At this moment, his interest in the treasure chest was not as great as his curiosity with the ‘Hint’ talent.

He had just tested the search and treasure hunting ability but he was still lacking the warning and karma prediction aspects of it.

“Adelia, go shoot me from a thousand meters away!” he suddenly said.
