A bed that traverses countless worlds

Chapter 52 First Encounter in the Desert, Danger Lurks

The sound of camel bells filled the air, and the endless yellow sand shimmered with golden light under the blazing sun.

Lin Yu squinted, gazing into the distance, and muttered, "This desert is really a bit depressing..."

Kong Yang wiped the sweat from his face and complained, "You bet! If I had known it would be this hot, I would have brought a refrigerator! This is practically a full-on barbecue mode!" His shirt was soaked through and stuck to his body, making him very uncomfortable.

Lin Yu lay on the magical bed, floating steadily above the sand dunes.

Although this bed can take him through countless worlds, in this desert, it seems to offer no other advantages besides preventing him from eating sand.

"System, do you have any cool summer items? I need help urgently!"

System: [Ding!]

Host needs detected. Desert summer retreat package activated, containing: a basket of chilled watermelon, an air conditioner fan...

Do you want to collect it?

]

"Nonsense! Hurry up!" Lin Yu gave the order, and instantly, a basket of chilled watermelon and a buzzing air conditioner appeared beside the bed.

Kong Yang was completely dumbfounded: "Old Lin, your cheat code is too amazing! Take me with you next time you time-travel!" Lin Yu laughed and handed Kong Yang a slice of watermelon, "Here, bro, have some watermelon!"

The two were enjoying the rare coolness when several figures suddenly appeared in the distance.

"What's going on? A mirage?" Kong Yang squinted, trying to make out the details.

As the figures drew closer, the two realized that they were members of a desert tribe dressed in animal skins and carrying spears.

The tribal chief, a burly man with a weathered face, pointed at Lin Yu and Kong Yang and shouted sternly, "Who are you? How dare you trespass on our tribe's territory!" The surrounding tribe members immediately surrounded them, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

"Misunderstanding! We were just passing by..." Lin Yu hurriedly explained, but the chieftain wouldn't listen at all, raising his spear high and roaring, "Take them down!"

Kong Yang swallowed hard and muttered under his breath, "Old Lin, we've really messed up this time..." Lin Yu smiled wryly; it seemed a fierce battle was inevitable...

Just at the critical moment, a figure rushed out and stood in front of Lin Yu and Kong Yang.

"Stop!" It was a young woman dressed in traditional tribal clothing, but with clear, bright eyes; it was Aisha.

She turned to the chief, her voice firm: "Father, let them explain first!"

The chief clearly doted on Aisha, and his tone softened: "Aisha, step aside! These people are of unknown origin; they might be here to steal our water!" Aisha didn't back down, insisting, "Father, I believe they aren't bad people! Look at them, they don't even have camels; how could they be invaders?"

Aisha's kindness and courage eased the tense atmosphere somewhat.

Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed this girl was a key figure!

He quickly said, "Chief, we really are just passing by. We are a group of... uh... explorers, searching for lost treasure!"

"Treasure?" Sun, the treasure hunter hiding in the shadows, lit up when he heard these two words.

He had been keeping an eye on Lin Yu and his group for a long time, and felt that they were definitely not simple.

"Hmph, explorers? I think you're here to rob tombs!" Sun, the treasure hunter, emerged from the shadows with a sinister smile on his face.

With a wave of his hand, several of his men immediately rushed towards Lin Yu.

"Damn it! Not again?" Kong Yang yelled, grabbing a wooden stick and charging forward.

"Don't panic!" Lin Yu lay calmly on the bed. With a thought, the magical bed instantly transformed into a huge steel fortress, protecting him and Kong Yang inside.

Before the attackers could even get close, they were violently thrown out by a mechanical arm that suddenly extended from the fortress, leaving them dazed and confused.

Upon seeing this, Sun Xunbao's expression changed drastically.

What the hell is this?

He originally thought Lin Yu was just an ordinary disabled young man, but he never expected him to have such high technology!

"Retreat!" Sun, the treasure hunter, made a quick decision and led his men in a hasty retreat.

Kong Yang poked his head out of the steel fortress and shouted excitedly, "Old Lin, awesome! Your bed can transform!" Lin Yu smiled, put the fortress back in, and it transformed back into an ordinary bed.

He watched Sun Xunbao walk away, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"Trying to steal from me? You're too green!"

Aisha watched Lin Yu from the side, her eyes filled with curiosity and admiration... "You..."

Aisha looked at Lin Yu, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

"You...your bed is amazing." She walked to the bedside and gently touched the edge of the bed, as if she were handling a precious work of art.

Lin Yu smiled slightly, "It's not an ordinary bed." Aisha was captivated by Lin Yu's smile, her cheeks flushing slightly.

"You're amazing," she exclaimed sincerely.

Lin Yu raised an eyebrow; the way this little fangirl looked at him was quite interesting.

"Just average, third in the world."

The tribal chief was furious when he saw Aisha and Lin Yu chatting so enthusiastically.

"Aysha! Come here! Don't talk to these strangers of unknown origin!" He roared at Aisha, while glaring fiercely at Lin Yu as if he wanted to devour him alive.

Aisha looked at Lin Yu with a troubled expression, then at her father, unsure of what to do.

Lin Yu was also very conflicted.

He didn't want to be an enemy of the tribe; he just wanted to quietly search for the ruins, complete the system tasks, and then leave gracefully.

But now, it seems we're in a bit of a bind.

"Chief, we really meant no harm..." Lin Yu tried to explain again, but the chief wouldn't listen and directly ordered, "Arrest them!"

The tribal warriors swarmed forward and surrounded Lin Yu and Kong Yang.

Kong Yang turned pale with fright, "Old Lin, we're really done for this time!" Lin Yu remained calm, "What's the panic? Watch me!" With a thought, the magical bed transformed again, this time into a giant spaceship!

"Holy crap! It can even turn into a spaceship?!" Kong Yang's jaw dropped in astonishment.

The tribespeople were stunned by this sudden change, staring in disbelief as if they had witnessed a miracle.

The chief was so frightened that he dropped his spear to the ground.

"This...what kind of witchcraft is this?!"

Lin Yu piloted the spaceship to slowly ascend into the air, looking down at everyone.

"Chief, I'll say it one last time, we mean no harm. We're just here to search for the ruins, and we'll leave once we find them." The chief looked at the enormous spaceship floating in the air, his heart filled with fear and awe.

He understood that he was no match for these people.

Just then, another commotion arose in the distance.

Sun the treasure hunter returned with even more men, and this time, they brought a huge excavator with them!

"Kid, you think you're safe just because you're hiding in the sky? Today, I'm going to get your treasure!" Sun the treasure hunter shouted arrogantly, pointing at Lin Yu.

Lin Yu sneered, "You? You think you're worthy?" He maneuvered the spaceship, aiming it at Sun Xunbao's excavator...

"Old Lin, wait!" Kong Yang suddenly shouted, pointing into the distance, "Look what's that?"

Lin Yu looked in the direction Kong Yang was pointing and saw a strange light appearing on the distant horizon...

“That is…” Lin Yu squinted and muttered to himself.
