With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

While many were shocked by the fact that a S Rank Mercenary like Lin Fan would take such a low rank mission, they didn\'t dare question him. After all, this was a true S Rank Mercenary with the license to prove it.

They weren\'t qualified to question him even if they had their doubts.

After Lin Fan left Fair White City, he immediately headed off the road and called back Hi and the carriage he had been taking.

These two things were much too eye catching and what he needed at this moment was the ability to hide himself.

So after casting his illusion spell on himself, he headed deeper into the wilderness based on Han Fu Rong\'s directions.

It didn\'t take him long before he noticed that something was off.

Normal people would have missed this, but the moment that Lin Fan\'s eyes fell onto it, he immediately stopped. He stood there looking at the ground, or rather the invisible line that was on the ground.

This was an array that had been drawn into the ground that the naked eye couldn\'t see, but the moment that Lin Fan\'s Appraisal Eyes fell onto them, there was a pop up that appeared.

Luckily for him, this wasn\'t a detection array.

This was only an array that had been set up to keep out spirit beasts of a certain level. At this place, the highest level spirit beast that could come here was only at the Foundation Ream, so that was what the array had been set to.

However, Lin Fan could tell that if they wanted to, they could have made this array strong enough that it would even be able to keep out Qi Condensing Realm spirit beasts.

Poison that could easily affect a Golden Core Realm Cultivator, a token that could block attacks from a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator, and an array that could keep out Qi Condensing Realm spirit beasts…

It was clear that whoever had Han Fu Rong capture the members of the Love Sect weren\'t normal people.

However, why did they want to capture the survivors of the Love Sect instead of just killing them all?

Did the Love Sect have something important hidden?

Lin Fan had assumed that it was some kind of grudge that had destroyed the Love Sect, but that didn\'t seem to be the case. They killed the strongest member of the Love Sect and now they were hunting down the weaker members…

It was almost as if they were trying to find something that the Love Sect had hidden.

Was there anything that precious among the succession of the Love Sect?

Lin Fan had already gone through the various things that Mu Bao Bao had inherited and he didn\'t think that there was anything killing the sect over. After all, the Love Sect had only been a mid tier sect, so their inheritance wasn\'t that great to begin with.

The more he thought about this, the more confused Lin Fan was.

But still, he didn\'t waste time as he had Greeny deploy its puppets to search the surrounding area.

Since the array was placed here, it was clear that all the space inside of the array was the enemy\'s territory. It wouldn\'t be surprising if they placed some kind of surveillance here to monitor this area.

After all, it was easy to monitor one area compared to the entire wilderness.

As expected, through the shared senses of the puppets, Lin Fan was able to see the various arrays that had been laid out across this area. These were arrays where when triggered, it would notify a central array inside of the manor that would tell them where the intruders were.

This was similar to surveillance cameras back on Earth, but it didn\'t have the same concept.

But one thing that all of these things had were blind spots.

These arrays had been placed near each other to create a net, but they hadn\'t been perfectly arranged to cover every single area. After all, there were changes in geography all over this place, so it was impossible to predict how much space the array would cover.

They did their best by using a net, but no matter how hard they tried, it was impossible to completely cover up every single spot.

Not to mention that there were places that they didn\'t think needed surveillance. There were some deep pits and waterfalls that they thought were untraversable to low cultivation realm cultivators, so they didn\'t put any arrays there.

In short, whoever laid this surveillance array net had done a careless job.

But that was something that Lin Fan was happy to see since it made his job easier.

With the information that he received from the puppets, he was able to easily find a path to the center for himself.

He hadn\'t sent the puppets into the center just yet since he had been checking how wide the spirit beast repelling formation was. But now that he had finished checking out this array and the surveillance array, he didn\'t hesitate to send the puppets in.

When he arrived near the center of the array, his puppets had already finished scouting out the manor that was at the very center of this array.

To his surprise, there was nothing in this manor as far as the puppets could tell. They had already slipped through the monitoring array of the manor and had searched the various courtyards, but they weren\'t able to find a single thing.

It was as if no one lived in this manor at all.

But the strange thing was that they also couldn\'t find a single trace of dust there.

So if no one had been living here, who was cleaning this place?

That wouldn\'t make any sense at all unless there were ghosts living here…

As Lin Fan thought this, he actually pondered if that was true since this place was a cultivation world. There were indeed things like ghosts that he had confirmed with the Love Sect\'s library of records that Mu Bao Bao had.

So could it be that there really were ghosts living here?

No, he shook this thought out of his head since if there were ghosts, he would have seen them already with his Appraisal Eyes.

So there must be something else that was special about this manor…

It wasn\'t because he was afraid of ghosts at all. Un, that\'s right, it was just something strange with the manor.

Taking a deep breath to calm himself down, Lin Fan started planning out his route for this manor. After some deep thought, Lin Fan decided that he would have two targets right now.

Han Fu Rong had said that the disciples of the Love Sect that he had captured had all been sent to this manor and had been stored here. So unless they had been moved before Lin Fan had arrived, they should still be in this manor.

Secondly, his goal was to find the main control system for the surveillance array.

He had searched all over the manor and he hadn\'t been able to find it. He knew that there would certainly be someone there even if there was no one seemingly in the manor.

Not to mention, if he wanted to save the trapped disciples of the Love Sect, he would need to disable this surveillance system to get them out.

So it was necessary for him to find this surveillance system no matter what.

But after searching for close to half an hour, he was still no closer to finding any of the targets that he wanted to find. It was almost as if there was nothing here at all, as if there had never been anything here.

Lin Fan was even starting to doubt if Han Fu Rong had lied to him…

No, if Han Fu Rong had lied to him, then where did this manor come from and why would someone put an array that would keep spirit beasts away here?

As he thought about it, the only possibility he could come up with was that this was the residence of some hidden expert that he had been tricked into coming to.

If that was the case, then when the expert came back and found Lin Fan snooping around…wouldn\'t that be a death flag?

Lin Fan felt that this possibility was more and more likely as he thought about it and he was planning on running away, but before he could, he found something.

It was sudden, but he lost contact with one of the puppets that were exploring one of the yards. It had suddenly happened right in the middle of the yard where there was nothing strange there, but for a few seconds, contact was lost with the mosquito flying there.

It took a few seconds before the connection was made again, but this piqued Lin Fan\'s attention.

He sent the mosquito back to where it had been before when it lost contact with him and then the same thing happened again where he lost connection with it.

Once again, after a few seconds connection was regained, but Lin Fan knew that he had found something.

So he sent several other puppets there and while the others were watching, he sent the first puppet to the same spot as before.

Then through the other puppets, he watched as that mosquito disappeared into thin air.

That was it!

He knew that there had to be something there!
