In the hotel's living room, Yang Ling's digitized body gradually solidified.
Lin Huang tossed him a set of god sequence armor relic. Yang Ling accepted it and put it on immediately.
"To be honest, when Hong Zhuang found me, I didn't think you were really dead." Seeing that Yang Ling had transformed the armor into a set of casual clothes, Lin Huang said unhurriedly, "I didn't believe you were really dead until I fought Spies and saw him digitizing your body. He said he extracted it from your memory."
Yang Ling sat on the armchair to the left of Lin Huang, picked up the teacup on the coffee table, and took a sip. Then she said slowly, "To prevent him from directly destroying my Veda, I divided my consciousness into nine parts. Apart from the core part, the other eight layers actually contained some information he wanted. Among them, digitizing my body was something he really wanted. I purposely digitized my body and placed it on the outermost first layer to create the illusion that there would be more valuable information inside. "
"In the end, after more than half a year, he only managed to crack three layers of the password. It was much slower than I expected.
"My original plan was to use the nine-layer password to stall for as long as I could. Although I had some hope that Hong Zhuang would grow up and avenge me, I didn't have much hope. I knew very well that it was only a matter of time before I died. The main purpose of transferring the remaining power of the Goldfinger to her was to let her grow up quickly so that she would have the power to protect herself in the great world.
"I asked Hong Zhuang to find you for her safety. I never thought you would avenge me. After all, Hong Zhuang doesn't know anyone else in the great world except for you and me. And the only person I can trust is you. "
"However, I didn't expect you to grow up so quickly and to this extent!" Yang Ling took a deep look at Lin Huang. She was quite shocked by Lin Huang's cultivation speed.
"Indeed, I'm a little faster than ordinary people," Lin Huang said humbly with a smile.
Yang Ling was speechless at this sentence.
"Alright, you don't have to be so pretentious." Seeing that Yang Ling still wanted to say something, he said, "We've known each other for so many years. You've taken good care of me before and helped me a lot. Helping you deal with Spies can be considered as returning the favor. "
With that, Lin Huang took out the thumb-sized golden metal piece and flicked it at Yang Ling.
"Here's your golden finger."
"This …" Yang Ling's expression was a little conflicted.
Spies's Goldfinger was already Lin Huang's spoils of war. Logically speaking, he should not take it. However, this Goldfinger had devoured his own Goldfinger, and it even had a familiar aura. He felt a little reluctant to give up.
Seeing the expression on Yang Ling's face, Lin Huang knew what he was thinking.
"Don't worry about it. This Goldfinger should be yours. I don't need something so complicated. It can only be used to its fullest in your hands. Besides, I have a lot of Goldfingers now. It doesn't make a difference if I have one more or one less. "
"If you really feel bad about it, you can give it to me for free when I ask you to unlock it or search for information in the future."
Yang Ling heard this and finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Alright, I'll borrow it. I'll return it to you when I get other Goldfingers in the future. "
"That's fine." Lin Huang thought about it and did not refuse. He knew that if he did not agree, Yang Ling might not accept this gift.
"Since you're borrowing it, why don't you choose one or two more?" Lin Huang said and took out the three Goldfingers that he did not want.
Yang Ling was stunned and then said in surprise, "How many raiders did you kill?!"
He only woke up after Lin Huang killed Spies. He also saw Lin Huang kill Black Mountain and Ravings, but he did not know about the battle before that.
"Including Spies, I killed six." Lin Huang's tone was so calm that it seemed like he was talking about something trivial.
"Two Goldfingers are still useful to me, so I'll keep them for my own use. The remaining three aren't very useful to me. See if you need them. If you do, you can take them. You can return them to me later. "
Lin Huang was so generous mainly because the Goldfingers could not be used by anyone other than a traveler. The extra Goldfingers were useless to him. At most, they could be used as materials to refine. Other than Lin Xin, the only person he knew who could use a Goldfinger was Yang Ling.
Listening to Lin Huang's tone, Yang Ling was speechless. However, he still used his Divine Telekinesis to check carefully.
Borrowing one was borrowing, borrowing two or three was also borrowing. After all, it was not a big deal to owe too much money.
If he really encountered a suitable Goldfinger that could increase his strength or make up for his shortcomings, he would get it now so that he could become stronger faster.
Thinking of this, he decided not to be pretentious.
After a careful check with his Divine Telekinesis, he picked one of them.
"I'll take this one for the spirit. The strength of the spirit has a big impact on my strength."
"Okay." Lin Huang threw the Goldfinger that Yang Ling had chosen to Yang Ling and kept the other two.
As for where the other two Goldfingers should go, he had already thought of them.
"What are your plans next?" Seeing Yang Ling keep the two Goldfingers, Lin Huang asked.
"I don't have any plans …" Yang Ling thought about it and looked up at Lin Huang. "Why don't I just follow you?"
"Spies's dead, so I don't have any goals anymore. If you're willing, I'll stay with Hong Zhuang and 'work' for you. I don't need a salary, but I have to have holidays. "
"Of course." Lin Huang agreed immediately. "Both of you stay, it'll be more convenient for me to look for you in the future."
"However, there's no need for you to work. You can be an honorary professor. Both of you aren't my subordinates, so you're not bound to me. You have absolute freedom. When you want to leave, you can leave anytime. "
"Sure, it's a deal then."
The two of them hit it off!
To Lin Huang, Yang Ling was a rare helper. Yang Ling was undoubtedly the best candidate for the job of unlocking the Storage Ring, forging an identity, and obtaining secret information.
He needed Yang Ling.
To Yang Ling, the main reason why he stayed was to return Lin Huang's favor. Not only did Lin Huang save his life, but he also helped him kill Spies and gave him Spies's Goldfinger. Those three things were undoubtedly great favors.
Now that he had his revenge, he had no clear goal anymore. To him, since it did not matter where he went, he might as well stay and help Lin Huang for the time being. It would not be too late to leave after he had returned the favor or had a clear goal in the future.
Therefore, the two of them came to an agreement very soon.
