With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Deep inside of this misty forest.

"What happened?" A deep voice suddenly spoke from inside of the cave.

Standing outside the cave was another tree person that looked like the tree woman that had tried to trick Lin Fan and Lin Li Zie.

However, this tree person looked much more like a person than a tree.

Instead of being made completely of wood, there was actual skin with leaves growing out of them on this person.

At the same time, it was a beautiful female.

There were only leaves that covered her body.

Or rather, there were only leaves that covered the sensitive parts of her body.

Namely, they covered her nipples and the part in between her legs.

But when she heard this voice coming from the cave, she immediately fell to one knee and said, "Master, I don't know. We just suddenly lost contact with the treants stationed at the edge of the forest. Until now, they've never made a mistake, so we don't know how they've suddenly disappeared."

The voice from the cave didn't say anything and that actually made the beautiful woman more anxious.

The look on her face almost seemed like she was afraid that she would be punished because of this.

She quickly bowed down as if she was about to say something, but the voice suddenly rang out again.

"It doesn't matter. They were nothing more than scouts in the first place, it doesn't matter if they're dead."

After a pause, the voice even added in a thoughtful voice, "In fact, they even fulfilled their role by dying. At least now we know that there's a powerful person who has entered this forest…"

The beautiful woman couldn't help trembling when she heard this.

She looked up and said, "Master, should we…"

Her voice trailed off since she could hear the sounds of thought coming from the cave.

It was clear that the creature in the cave was thinking about something.

When the master thought, the servants naturally didn't dare disturb.

So once she heard this, she immediately closed her mouth and lowered her head as she waited for the voice to speak again.

After a long silence, the voice suddenly said, "I'm pulling the mist in the outer ring back and concentrating on the inner ring. Whatever this threat is, it's come at a bad time. I will focus on defense instead of offense and go into hiding until it leaves. For now, do not bother me unless something very serious happens."

When the beautiful woman heard this, she couldn't help looking up with a look of disbelief.

It wasn't that she couldn't believe that the creature in the cave would do this, it was as if she couldn't believe that it would abandon all of them like this without a word.

She bit her lip for a few seconds, but then she felt compelled to say, "Master, if you do this, what about the others in the outer ring? Without the protection of the mist, they'll most certainly…"

She didn't finish her words, but the way that she left her words hanging already made the meaning of them clear.

The voice from the cave immediately said, "What does that matter to me?"

The beautiful woman bit her lip again, but she didn't dare say anything else.

The voice from the cave then added, "Tell them to come back. If they can get into the mist, then that's that. If they can't, then it's not my problem."

This was a compromise, but it was a very disdainful compromise.

Almost as if the voice of the cave was saying, "You mean nothing to me, this isn't my problem."

The beautiful woman bit her lip again, but she didn't say anything this time.

She just bowed her head and said, "It is as you will, master."

Then without another word, she stood up and walked away from the cave.

When she was gone, the creature in the cave let out a soft sigh of relief before saying, "It's a good thing that she bought that act. If only they knew the truth…"

Then with a determined look, this little creature stood up and said, "No, no matter what, I can never let them find out the truth. I must survive no matter what."

…

Once they had made sure that everything was taken care of, Lin Fan and Lin Li Zi set off again.

But this time, they didn't head off deeper into the forest.

Instead, they went back the way that they came from.

Lin Li Zi immediately questioned this and asked, "Where are you going? Why are you going back the way that we came?"

Lin Fan just calmly said, "Because this is the way that we need to go."

Lin Li Zi bit her lip when she heard this as she was very anxious to get the medicine for her mother.

But without Lin Fan's help, it wasn't as if she would be able to get it in the first place.

So she had no choice but to follow him.

The two of them only traveled for a bit before arriving at another building.

This time, they could see that there were indeed horses that were here.

It seemed that this time, there were actual people.

But Lin Li Zi didn't let her guard down that easily as they approached.

Once they came close enough, they could see that it was another inn. In fact, it looked just like the inn that they had visited before, but there were signs that there were other people here.

This time, it was completely different.

Lin Li Zi was the one that had her guard up while Lin Fan casually strolled up to the inn.

Lin Li Zi had an ugly expression when she saw him acting this way, but she had no choice but to follow him in.

As they came in, they found that there was a bar that everyone was gathered in just like before.

Lin Fan walked into the bar with Lin Li Zi and no one paid any attention to them as they found a table to sit down on.

The only one that did pay attention to them was one of the waitresses who came over to say, "What will you have?"

Lin Li Zi was still holding her weapon at this point, which she now pointed at the waitress.

While pointing this weapon at the waitress, she said, "Are you a monster too?"

The others that were in the bar stood up when they saw Lin Li Zi point the weapon at the waitress, but the waitress just raised her hand for all of them to calm down as she said, "It seems that you've encountered something out there in the mist, but you don't need to worry here. This is the outpost that the Mercenary Guild has created, so this is a safe place."

Lin Li Zi didn't seem like she believed her, but then she found that her weapon was knocked out of her hand before she could even do anything.

The waitress just said with a smile, "Also, I don't like weapons being pointed at me."

Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a look of admiration when he saw this.

He had been able to see how the waitress had done this and he had to admit that her speed was something else.

It was just a simple slap to the wrist, but the speed was so fast that Lin Li Zi's eyes hadn't been able to follow at all.

Of course, he hadn't been worried at all since he had been using the Appraisal Eyes the entire time. This time, he was able to see notifications pop up, so he knew that they were in the right place.

Lin Li Zi looked at Lin Fan and seeing how calm he was, she slowly calmed down as well.

Though she still went over to pick up the weapon and still hold it in her hand as she sat there.

The waitress ignored this and looked at Lin Fan to say, "So, what will you have?"

Lin Fan shook his head as he said, "Nothing to drink, but we do want some information."

The waitress narrowed her eyes, but she said, "Nothing in this world is free."

Lin Fan gave a simple nod before taking out a gold coin to place on the table.

The waitress turned her narrow eyes to look at the gold coin before suddenly revealing a smile and saying, "It seems like you understand how things work. Alright, what do you want to know?"

Lin Fan said with a nod, "Just the usual. Give me the general gist of what the situation in this place is like."

The waitress gave a nod as if she was expecting this before saying, "It's been the same, but…" After a pause, she added, "The mist has been strange lately. From time to time, it would become thicker or thinner."

Lin Fan knitted his brows when he heard this, but his brows quickly relaxed.

Without any hesitation, he took out another gold coin that he placed on the table before asking, "Blood Lingzhi? Any information on that?"

Lin Li Zi's eyes opened wide, but then she quickly looked at Lin Fan with a touched look of understanding.

So this was what he meant.

Instead of wandering around, it was better for them to buy the information that they wanted.

The waitress gave a nod before pointing at someone who was drinking at the counter and saying, "He knows where it is, but that's a separate price you'll have to pay."

Lin Fan just simply gave a nod before standing up to walk over to the counter.

Lin Li Zi quickly followed behind him.
