The speed at which Xu Feng exited stunned Tracy on the spot.
For some reason, she sensed that he wasn't comfortable with the name he altered.
"As expected of all eccentric bosses." Tracy clasped her hands, concluding that it was just the typical trait of most bosses.
Without further ado, she resumed her work and prepared to contact the blacksmiths regarding the subsequent contract and when they should get to work.
Xu Feng was quite meticulous and had already informed them beforehand on what to forge.
Most of them were common items that are required by newbies, but Tracy didn't dare to question his motive.
She was just an employee, and a great employee should simply do as told without questioning why.
If there was something she should know, then Xu Feng would have told her already.
And this was precisely why Xu Feng came to appreciate Tracy.
She was clever enough to know when or when not to ask questions. Sure, she might know something after some pondering, but she kept silent about it.
Feeling reassured to leave the remaining tasks to Tracy, Xu Feng already boldly walked out of the hotel as he prepared to take the North exit.
'The ores source should be in a separate dimension.' As he exited through the North's gate, Xu Feng opened his map and checked the terrain.
Most of the terrains had already been explored, with some even digging many layers underground to search for ores, only to end up with naught.
Thus, the only possibility was that these ores weren't located underground or elsewhere, but in another dimension.
From his recollection, the richness of the ores was in the north side area, so Xu Feng needed to start his search from the very beginning.
"Time to do this like an expedition." Xu Feng declared, heading deep into the open field that had level 17 plus monsters roaming around.
System: You have entered Frontier Fields!
As the Abyssal Phantom hovered around in the air, Xu Feng commanded it to be the vanguard. "Advance forward and kill anyone that is near the vicinity of us."
The only reason why he didn't attempt to hire mercenaries to assist him was solely because of the Abyssal Phantom. With this creature alone, it was more than enough to tackle the monsters in this area, albeit somewhat slower.
Shortly after receiving the command, a murderous aura erupted from the Abyssal Phantom. It stretched its claws out and began scrutinizing the surroundings.
A few seconds later, it detected some monsters. With a zooming speed, the Abyssal Phantom went ahead and attacked the monsters.
Bzzz Bzzz Bzzz
Buzzing-type of noises echoed from afar, and Xu Feng was surprised to see this type of monster here, Gargantuan Beetles. They were massive armored beetles with thick, almost impenetrable exoskeletons.
Their powerful mandibles could crush anything in their path and exuded a faint, acidic mist that corroded equipment over time upon contact.
Thankfully, Xu Feng was a ranged-type class, and with the Abyssal Phantom commencing the assault, he was relieved of the consequences of having his equipment corroded.
However, he didn't dare to relax at all and quickly buffed the Abyssal Phantom, providing it ample support.
The Gargantuan Beetles might work alone, but upon contact with enemies, they would instantly send distress signals, essentially calling for reinforcement.
Normally, Xu Feng would disrupt the distress signal, but his current skills were limited. Not to mention, he didn't mind free experience points rushing their way toward him.
With swift action, Xu Feng leaped on top of a tree branch and calmly watched the battle from atop.
The Gargantuan Beetles' attacks were indeed powerful, but toward the Abyssal Phantom's elusive movement, it was completely ineffective and useless.
In the blink of an eye, the first Beetles had fallen prey to the mighty Abyssal Phantom, creating zero suspense.
"This is how one should grind monsters." Xu Feng smiled, his eyes glancing at the reinforcement, who clearly had no idea what they were going up against.
The Abyssal Phantom was blood-thirsty, and within a few seconds, it had already rushed ahead and launched another offensive strike at the reinforcement called by the deceased beetle.
While this happened, Xu Feng calmly made a few markings on his map, extremely relaxed.
