That black ring had rolled into a position close to the threshold.

  When Lin Lei walked three or four steps, and was close to the threshold, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. This was because Lin Lei had a very clear feeling that he had stepped on something similar to a large pebble.

  "Just now when I checked, the stone near the threshold was not there, it should be a piece of wood debris produced by the broken wooden frame." Lin Lei thought of the collapsed wooden frame and involuntarily felt a surge of resentment in his heart, and fiercely trampled on the wooden block under his feet.

  According to Lin Leis speculation, if it was a rotten wooden block, it should have been crushed into powder with just one kick, but...

  "Hey, its so hard? Whats underfoot?" Lin Lei felt that what was under his feet wasnt the usual hardness, and immediately lifted up his foot to take a closer look.

  All that can be seen is a black, ring-like thing lying quietly on the ground, covered with a layer of dust, very inconspicuous.

  "Ah, is it a ring?" Lin Leis eyes were gleaming with excitement as he picked up the black ring from the ground and rubbed it vigorously on his dirty sleeve several times. Only then did he get a clear look at the true appearance of this object that resembled a black ring.

  Entirely dark and lustrous, its material seems like wood, yet also seems like stone.

  This black ring is made of a material that resembles both wood and stone, and on the rings hoop there is also an extremely vague twisted thing carved.

  "Earthworm?" Lin Lei looked at the carving on the ring in confusion.

  At first glance, Lin Lei thought that twisted strip was an earthworm.

  Lin Lei smiled to himself, saying: "This carving level is really bad, I reckon even a random persons carving level would be higher than his. Alas, what a pity, this black ring doesnt even have any precious diamonds, let alone the even more precious magical crystals."

  General rings are diamond or magic crystal.

  Unfortunately, this black ring is just a dull, dark material that resembles wood or stone throughout, without even a hint of diamonds or magical crystals. Its clearly not worth a single penny.

  For some reason, Lin Lei saw the black ring and felt that he had taken a liking to it. It was probably because this was the only spoil of war from his exhausting search for treasure in the old house.

  "Ah, this ring is thicker than my finger and cant be worn on the hand... Find a silk thread to hang it up as a pendant." Lin Leis eyes lit up.

  Like Lin Lei, who is only eight years old this year, his hands are much smaller than those of adults and cannot wear the black ring.

  "As for this black ring, what should it be called? Earthworm Ring? No way, that sounds terrible." Lin Lei pondered for a moment, his eyes lit up, "Heh heh, that twisted thing can also be considered a dragon. A dragon climbing on the ring, lets call... Panlong, Panlong Ring!" Although Lin Lei thought that the twisted thing looked more like an earthworm in his heart, he still named it Panlong Ring.

  "Panlong Ring!" Lin Lei raised this dark and ancient Panlong ring, smiling exceptionally brightly.

  Due to the familys economic difficulties, this is Lin Leis first pendant from childhood to adulthood. Especially since Lin Lei found it himself with great effort, he couldnt help but like it even more.

  "Oh no, its almost time for our evening training."

  Lin Lei suddenly woke up, feeling extremely anxious. He looked down at himself and saw that he was covered in dust and dirt, looking like a beggar. "This is terrible," he thought to himself. Lin Lei didnt have time to think about it anymore and immediately sprinted out of the old house, running straight towards the bathroom.

  "Whoosh!"

  Lin Lei directly splashed water on himself, Lin Leis skin was a healthy wheat color, and his body already had very beautiful muscle lines, this is the result of Lin Leis training, under the impact of the water, all the dust on his body was quickly washed away.

  Rinse your body clean at the fastest speed, then quickly change into a set of training clothes.

  "Thread, thread..." Lin Lei hastily searched for the thread to wear the Panlong Ring, suddenly Lin Lei saw his own damaged hemp clothes, and his eyes lit up, directly pulling out a thin thread from the hemp clothes.

  Hemp cloth is ordinary but durable and practical. The hemp thread is also very strong.

  Quickly put on the Panlong ring and then directly wore it in front of his chest.

  "Its going to be late, first time being late." Lin Lei rushed out of the house quickly, while running, he directly stuffed the Panlong Chest Pendant into his clothes, and his chest felt the coolness of the Panlong Chest Pendant, Lin Leis mood also became more pleasant.

  Being late once, but got the Panlong ring in return.

  Lin Lei felt very happy instead.

  Lin Lei suddenly ran out of the Baroque family mansion and rushed to the open space on the east side of Wushan Town. On the streets of Wushan Town, many ordinary people who had finished their days work had already returned home, and when they saw Lin Lei running at full speed, they all guessed the reason.

  "Lin Lei young master, dont be in a hurry, dont fall down."

  "Mr. Hillman is very strict, and it seems that Mr. Lin Lei will be punished."

  ……

  The Baroque familys friendly treatment of civilians also made the civilians very fond of Lin Lei.

  "Uncle Hillman, how will he punish me?" Lin Lei thought to himself as he sprinted at top speed. At this moment, Lin Lei didnt even have time to talk to his uncles and aunts beside him. Just a short while later, Lin Lei arrived at the empty lot on the east side of Wushan Town.

  At this time, the three teams were all concentrated, and Hillman was speaking. Hearing Lin Leis footsteps, Hillmans cold gaze shot over involuntarily.

  Lindell ran over to the side of the team and stood still, anxiously waiting for Hillman to speak.

  "Todays training mission, with double penalty, return to the team." Hillman said calmly.

  "Yes!" Lin Lei raised his head and chest, responding loudly.

  The boys next to him couldnt help but secretly scold, and just a little later, the punishment was doubled. It seems that Lin Lei wont be able to go back for dinner tonight.

  Just as Lin Lei was running towards his position in the team, suddenly ——

  "Boom!" The entire earth suddenly had a faint tremor, and the tremor was very rhythmic, as if a huge creature was walking step by step, causing the earth to shake.

  "From the east, its coming from the east." Lin Lei immediately determined the direction.

  It wasnt just Lin Lei, even Xierman, Luo Rui, and Luo Ge looked solemnly to the east. The ground trembled with increasingly clear vibrations, and all the young men felt that the rhythm of the tremors was undoubtedly a massive creature approaching from that direction.

  Those footsteps shaking the ground, each shock seemed to hit Lin Leis heart.

  What is this huge thing?

  Lin Leis eyes widened and stared fixedly at Dongfang.
