Lin Feng scratched his head, not expecting Xi Xing to react so strongly.
Why was she suddenly sad?
"Can't you just brew more? Is it worth getting so angry?"
"Brew more?" Xi Xing's expression was strange, she wanted to scold him but stopped.
It was as if what Lin Feng said was an incredible thing.
After a while, Xi Xing sighed, her tone filled with an unspeakable melancholy.
"...I can't brew anymore..."
Her race was dwindling.
It was already difficult enough to survive, how could they continue brewing?
This kind of wine was truly a bottle less every time it was drunk.
She didn't know why she had been so foolish as to bring out such wine.
Perhaps it was because Lin Feng's appearance had hit her sweet spot!
If she had known, she could have just casually brought out two bottles of good wine to appease him!
Thinking of this, Xi Xing's originally "lively" tail drooped.
Lin Feng looked thoughtfully at Xi Xing's thigh.
It was slightly bulging under her tight clothing.
Lin Feng had noticed it as soon as Xi Xing appeared.
Without using X-ray vision, Lin Feng knew it must be the bandages used to wrap her wounds.
Because of his powerful sense of smell, he could detect a faint scent of blood.
Hmm... it was a wound from a sharp weapon...
Don't ask how Lin Feng knew, he "guaranteed" he didn't use his X-ray vision!
"It seems the proprietress isn't having an easy time either..."
Lin Feng also sighed, not prying into Xi Xing's sorrowful matters.
Every family has its own burdens.
Life is full of imperfections, eight or nine times out of ten.
Most adults are not living as they wish.
Not just outside the fourth wall, but also within the movie itself...
Lin Feng took out a Superman distress beacon and gently placed it in front of Xi Xing.
"What is this?"
Xi Xing curiously picked up the small metal piece.
It was a delicate metal sheet, cool to the touch, with a large 'S' logo on it.
"This is a distress beacon."
"If you encounter danger, press this, and I will arrive as soon as possible."
"Consider it... payment for the wine..." Lin Feng said with a smile.
This damned kindness, Lin Feng's compassion was stirred again.
Indeed, beautiful women had special privileges with him!
But it wasn't just that, Lin Feng's sixth sense told him that he would see this "succubus" young lady again in the future.
Xi Xing examined the metal piece for a while but pushed it back to Lin Feng.
"You don't know how powerful my enemies are..."
That existence, as powerful as a god, had led to the near extinction of Xi Xing's race.
His power had left a deep impression in Xi Xing's mind.
She hadn't failed to commission cosmic powerhouses to seek revenge.
But those powerhouses had all disappeared without a trace.
Xi Xing didn't want anyone else to get involved in her revenge.
"No." Lin Feng smiled and pushed the metal piece back to Xi Xing.
"You also don't know how powerful I am!"
"After pressing the distress beacon, even if you lose your life, I can snatch you back from the goddess of death!"
Lin Feng said meaningfully.
"Then, we'll meet again if fate allows!"
With that, without giving Xi Xing a chance to refuse, Lin Feng opened a portal and vanished from the bar.
Leaving Xi Xing alone, sitting there, lost in thought as she looked at the distress beacon in her hand...
Emerging from the portal, Lin Feng arrived at the Nowhere.
That's right, he needed to have a chat with the Collector, Tivan.
From afar, the Nowhere indeed looked like a giant Celestial head.
Its size was comparable to a small planet.
The universe truly had all sorts of strange things.
Lin Feng muttered, passing through the giant eye socket and entering the interior of the Nowhere.
What met his eyes were towering metal structures, beneath which lived countless desperate outlaws.
This place was also called a mining area.
Countless sturdy, small mining machines were constantly in operation.
Hundreds of years ago, the Tivan Corporation dispatched workers to mine the organic matter within the Celestial's head day and night.
Bones, brain tissue, spinal fluid, and so on were all scarce resources.
They could fetch a good price in any black market.
But mining was against universal law, so only desperadoes engaged in this line of work.
It was chaotic, dark, and full of danger.
Of course, this danger couldn't threaten Lin Feng.
As soon as he landed, a group of beggars with innocent expressions approached him to beg.
Lin Feng walked past them expressionlessly.
No one living here was a kind soul.
Even children could stab you with a knife with an innocent look on their faces.
Chaos, lawlessness, darkness, and money were the dominant colors of this place.
The desperadoes passing by on the street all wore fierce expressions.
In this place, weakness only led to greater persecution.
Of course, this kind of place also had its share of women seeking money.
But they were usually brightly colored.
Well... the color here referred to their skin tone.
Red, blue, purple, green, all sorts were present.
Dressed in scantily clad outfits, they flirted with Lin Feng on the street.
Lin Feng smiled foolishly.
Although their skin colors were a bit unaccustomed, their voluptuous figures and revealing outfits were a feast for Lin Feng's eyes.
Constantly observing, Lin Feng stopped in front of a massive building.
The Collector, Tivan's collection hall!
Lin Feng had seen this scene in Guardians of the Galaxy.
At the entrance stood a small woman with red skin, wearing a white miniskirt.
"Mr. Lin Feng!"
Upon seeing Lin Feng, she clasped her hands in front of her chest and bowed.
"The master has been waiting for a long time, please follow me!"
Lin Feng nodded and followed her into the building.
Tivan was rumored to have some prophetic abilities.
His foreseeing Lin Feng's arrival was not surprising.
Entering the collection hall and passing through a narrow corridor, the scene before him opened up.
Various huge containers were arranged together, holding all sorts of strange and peculiar creatures.
Some were alive, some were dead.
And some were preserved in liquid.
Lin Feng even saw the Cosmo dog that had flown into space.
Despite the numerous containers, and the somewhat crowded space, everything was neatly organized.
Reaching the center of the hall, Lin Feng saw the Collector, his back to him, striking a pose.
The small attendant smiled and made a grand gesture.
"Allow me to introduce!"
"Taneleer Tivan, the Collector!"
After the introduction, background music inexplicably began playing in the room.
Tivan slowly turned around, wearing a furry coat despite the hot weather.
He had white hair and wore steampunk-style goggles on his face.
This was the second person Lin Feng had encountered who was so good at posing...
The first was the Red Skull, whom he had met a few days ago...
He wondered how that guy was doing now.
"Esteemed Mr. Lin Feng!" Tivan removed his glasses, revealing a pair of dead fish eyes with dark circles.
"Welcome."
Tivan struck another pose that Lin Feng couldn't comprehend, likely meant to express welcome.
