A bed that traverses countless worlds

On the black cloth, a lifelike golden-winged roc is embroidered, its wings spread as if about to take flight, exuding an aura of dominance.

"Holy crap! What's going on?" Lin Yu was so shocked he almost rolled off the bed, but luckily Kong Yang caught him in time.

"Boss, is your bed somehow sentient?" Kong Yang stared wide-eyed, his face full of disbelief.

Lin Yu was also stunned. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation in all the time he had traveled through time.

Does this bed have some hidden function?

"Let's leave that aside for now," Lin Yu said, putting away the black cloth. "Let's go check on those dwarf engineers."

The Sky City has a complex internal structure, resembling a giant maze.

Lin Yu and his group walked for a long time before finally finding the underground workshop where the dwarf engineers were imprisoned.

A damp, putrid odor wafted over, making one want to vomit.

The workshop was dimly lit and the air was foul. The dwarves were bound by chains, and they were all emaciated with dull eyes, looking like a group of walking corpses.

"This..." Kong Yang gasped as he looked at the scene before him. "This is too tragic."

Lin Yu frowned as well. These dwarf engineers were key to rebuilding Sky City. If they couldn't be used by him, then everything was just empty talk.

"Everyone," Lin Yu cleared his throat, "I am Lin Yu, and I'm here to rescue you."

The dwarves did not show any joy upon hearing Lin Yu's words. Instead, they looked at him with even greater vigilance, their eyes filled with fear and suspicion.

"Rescue us?" a dwarf sneered. "You humans are all the same! You only know how to deceive and exploit us!"

Another dwarf picked up his tool and pointed it at Lin Yu, shouting, "Get out! We don't want to be enslaved by you anymore!"

The atmosphere immediately became tense, with swords drawn and ready to strike at any moment.

Lin Yu took a deep breath, slowly raised his hand, palm up, and revealed a faint smile: "I know you don't believe me, but..." He paused, his gaze sweeping over each dwarf, his tone firm, "I assure you..."

"I assure you, I will give you true freedom!" As soon as Lin Yu finished speaking, several pieces of ore that shone with a strange light appeared out of thin air in his hand.

Those were rare materials seized from the Sky City Lord's treasury, and even to seasoned adventurers, they were priceless.

"Holy crap! Boss, you've pulled out all the stops!" Kong Yang muttered to himself, while Su Yao also looked at him with surprise.

The eyes of these dwarf engineers lit up instantly. Having dealt with ores for years, they could naturally see the value of these materials.

The once lifeless workshop seemed to be injected with new vitality because of the appearance of these few pieces of ore.

“This is… meteorite iron? And mithril essence!” an elderly dwarf engineer said in a trembling voice, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The other dwarf engineers also gathered around, their eyes filled with longing.

Lin Yu smiled slightly, knowing that his strategy had worked.

"These materials are just a small gift," he said confidently, glancing around at everyone. "As long as you are willing to work for me, I guarantee you will receive better treatment than the Lord of Sky City, and more importantly, you will have true freedom!"

Several dwarf engineers, who had been completely brainwashed by the Sky City Lord, suddenly grabbed their tools and charged at Lin Yu with ferocious expressions.

"Die, humans!" they shouted, their tools whistling as they hurtled toward Lin Yu's face.

"Boss, be careful!" Kong Yang and Su Yao immediately rushed over to help when they saw this.

“No need,” Lin Yu raised his hand to stop them. “I’ll do it myself.” He knew that at this moment, he had to show his strength and sincerity in order to completely conquer these dwarves.

Lin Yu lay on the bed, seemingly dodging the attacks effortlessly. His movements were fluid and graceful, as if he were strolling in a garden, a stark contrast to the crazed dwarf engineers.

While dodging, he continued to persuade them: "Do you really think the Sky City Lord is doing this for your own good? He's just using you as tools to squeeze every last drop of value out of you! But I will give you the respect you deserve!"

His words, like the morning bell and evening drum, struck the hearts of the dwarf engineers.

Gradually, the attacking dwarfs slowed down, and their eyes began to look dazed.

Finally, they dejectedly put down their tools and fell silent.

Looking at them, Lin Yu understood that he had won their initial trust.

"So, are you willing to believe me now?" he asked with a smile.

Just then, a clear voice came from the workshop entrance: "Lin Yu, are you alright?"...

Aisha's voice flowed into the oppressive workshop like a clear spring. She stood at the entrance, her eyes full of worry: "Lin Yu, are you alright? You scared me to death!" She quickly walked to Lin Yu's bedside and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead.

This sudden tenderness warmed Lin Yu's heart, as if a surge of power was flowing through his entire body.

“It’s nothing, just a small matter, I’ll handle it!” He gave Aisha a confident wink, then turned to look at the dwarf engineers, his eyes even more determined.

This scene, as seen by the dwarves, was like a lightning bolt cleaving through the gloom in their hearts.

They had never seen such genuine affection, a warmth that stood in stark contrast to the cold treatment they had received under the Sky City Lord.

An older dwarf engineer stepped forward first, kneeling on one knee and saying in a trembling voice, "We are willing to follow you, Lord Lin Yu!"

"Wow! It's done!" Kong Yang excitedly waved his fist, and Su Yao also showed a relieved smile.

With these highly skilled dwarven engineers, the reconstruction of Sky City is just around the corner!

Other dwarf engineers followed suit, kneeling and swearing allegiance.

Lin Yu was overjoyed. The reconstruction of Sky City would be full of challenges, and his own strength needed to be improved.

He looked around and his gaze fell on a tightly closed stone door deep inside the workshop.

"What is that place?" he asked, pointing to the stone gate.

A dwarf engineer quickly replied, "That was the Sky City Lord's former research lab, which contains many valuable documents and equipment, but we have never been allowed to go in."

A glint of light flashed in Lin Yu's eyes.

"Let's go take a look!" With a wave of his hand, the bed shot towards the stone door like an arrow...

With a loud "boom," the stone door shattered.
