City 18, Federation Twin Stars.
Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen sat in a bar. On the dance floor, the bar used holographic projections to display several glamorous dancers, performing revealing dances.
Hu Xiaoniu propped her chin and looked, calmly saying, “Will anyone really watch this kind of thing? Why not watch the real thing?”
Zhang Tianzhen closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing. Now, he was also cultivating at all tis.
Only after hearing Hu Xiaoniu’s words did he open his eyes and reply, “This small bar wasn’t originally in this business. They’re rely using this kind of act to conceal so true intentions, so using fakes is cheaper.”
At this ti, a fat man in a leather fur coat ca up with a fawning smile, “Two bosses of the Eternal Society, why do you have ti to co to such a small place today?”
This fat man’s lower body had been replaced with Cybernetic Limbs. Usually, either soldiers injured on the battlefield or gang mbers severely injured on the streets would do this, otherwise, no one would replace such a large area with Cybernetic Limbs.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Tianzhen suddenly made a move, grabbing the bar boss’s thick palm and pressing it on the table. His speed was so fast that people didn’t even have ti to blink.
Before the boss could react, Zhang Tianzhen had already pierced his palm with chopsticks, firmly nailing it to the table in front of him.
After two full seconds, the boss suddenly howled in pain.
Zhang Tianzhen said slowly, “In Eternal Society’s territory, only disposable dopamine chips are allowed to be sold, not chemical drugs. Have you heard of this rule?”
The fat boss wailed, “But many people can’t afford the equipnt to connect to the brain machine! They can’t use dopamine chips!”
Zhang Tianzhen paused, “If it were any other ti, I might reason with you properly, but not today.”
As he spoke, Zhang Tianzhen took five more chopsticks and nailed them into the other’s palm one by one.
The bar boss’s other hand reached for his waist, but he found that the firearm in his holster was already in Hu Xiaoniu’s hand.
Hu Xiaoniu said seriously, “Listen to him carefully, don’t get distracted.”
Zhang Tianzhen said, “I know that those in your line have strong backing and are all desperate n. But in City 18, whoever cos has to honestly follow the Eternal Society’s rules to do underground business… eh, your eyes are so lively, I can see a spirit of defiance in them. It’s alright, just kneel here and watch, and see if what I’m saying is right.”
At this mont, more than ten n in black rushed in from the front door of the bar, and the sa from the back door.
Those people raised their arms to open fire on Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen. Zhang Tianzhen imdiately stood in front of Hu Xiaoniu, protecting him tightly behind him.
But at that mont, all the killers’ faces turned blood-red, blood was squeezed out of their pores by the strong air pressure, and their eyeballs also seeped from white to blood-red.
Those killers didn’t even have a chance to attack before they died.
The scene was bizarre and terrifying.
In a booth not far away, a man in a black trench coat stood up.
The young man took off his hat and slowly walked to Hu Xiaoniu’s side, “It’s done.”
The bar boss who was kneeling on the ground cried out in terror, “Li Dongze!”
Zhang Tianzhen said with a smile, “Those people just now were all from Shendai, do you think your backing is stronger than the Shendai Consortium?”
Before the ti travel, Qing Chen, in his final monts, used “Big Rich Man” to remind all Daybreak mbers that Shendai would definitely retaliate against all of Daybreak as soon as they traveled.
The fact was exactly as Qing Chen had predicted, Shendai ca.
But unlike Daybreak’s revenge in Japan, Shendai’s revenge was like sending people to their deaths.
“Alright,” Li Dongze said, “Don’t bother with him.”
Zhang Tianzhen got up and walked out with Li Dongze, “Thank you, Boss Li.”
Li Dongze nodded as a matter of course, “You should indeed thank . If it weren’t for dealing with Shendai’s revenge, I would have already left for the north.”
Hu Xiaoniu heard him ntion this, so he suddenly asked, “Will Qing Chen be in danger?”
Li Dongze glanced at Hu Xiaoniu, “Of course, he’ll be in danger. Who in this world hasn’t experienced danger a few tis? But I’ve already passed the ssage to the master, even if Qing Chen encounters danger…”
Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen knew that the master Li Dongze was referring to was Li Shutong, the mysterious Demi-God.
If the Demi-God personally intervened, could Qing Chen escape unhard?
Li Dongze paused and said, “If the master makes a move, even if Qing Chen encounters danger, the master can bring his body back.”
Hu Xiaoniu: “???”
Zhang Tianzhen: “???”
If they weren’t aware that they couldn’t beat the man in front of them, they would have definitely attacked!
Li Dongze added, “And the body of the Shendai family head.”
Hu Xiaoniu: “”
Zhang Tianzhen: “”
At this ti, Li Dongze took out his pocket watch, “It’s going to snow again, I have to go ho early.”
After saying that, he put on his hat and walked into the bustling neon lights of City 18.
Four hundred kiloters away from A02 Base, in the mountains.
More than ten people were wearing black linen cloaks and walking through the mountains.
The snow in the north had already started to fall. Si Yue looked back and asked expectantly, “Shall we stop and make a fire to cook? It’s already two in the morning.”
As she spoke, she looked at the Fire Pit Grand Elder and Li Yunjing.
Li Yunjing silently looked at Li Ke, while the Fire Pit Grand Elder looked at Qin Yiyi.
Li Ke and Qin Yiyi said in unison, “No!”
Qin Yiyi seed to think that her tone was a little harsh, so she softened her voice and said, “We’re going to save people, we can’t delay even a second. It’s possible that because we’re late by a few hours, he’ll have an accident.”
Si Yue cried, “But I’m really hungry! You can’t do this! When has the Forbidden Artifact Tribunal ever suffered such grievances? Uncle Yunjing, Grand Elder, please say sothing! Even if you’re going to save people, you need energy, right?”
These two were clearly the most powerful figures in the team, but they didn’t have any intention of taking charge.
The crows rarely encountered such a situation.
Generally, once it was determined where a tahumans death event would occur, the forces in the area would provide them with food and drink, for fear that their place of residence would beco a Forbidden Zone.
This ti was different, not to ntion the car only being scratched halfway, they were also urged to rush on their way in the middle of the night.
Li Yunjing and the Fire Pit Grand Elder didn’t force them, it was just that every ti they rested for too long, Li Ke and Qin Yiyi would stand beside them and “chant scriptures”, one responsible for the first half of the night and the other for the second half, like a soul-stirring, restless spirit.
Si Yue felt that this was the most agonizing containnt ever, her nerves were worn out!
She lanted, “We’ve been on the road for 20 hours!”
Li Ke sighed, “Let’s set up camp here. There’s going to be a big battle ahead, Uncle Yunjing and the Grand Elder really need to rest and recuperate.”
The Grand Elder’s Face[-] changed, “What nonsense are you talking about? This is already the heartland of the Shendai Consortium. Once we make a move, we’ll inevitably attract a well-equipped army to hunt us down. When the Air Fortress arrives, the main firepower electromagnetic cannons will hit the ground, even a Demi-God will die! If you want to fight, you fight, I won’t!”
Qin Yiyi said, “Then return the black knife to .”
The Grand Elder’s expression froze. For a mont, he was overco with grief. This was clearly his own knife, how co it suddenly beca the possession of this little ancestor by divine decree.
Does God still make sense?!
He hesitated and said, “Then I’ll help fight a battle, definitely not more.”
Qin Yiyi smiled and said while gathering firewood, “Grand Elder is the best.”
The Grand Elder felt uneasy hearing this praise. He stroked his beard and whispered, “Not that good…”
More than ten people gathered firewood and made a fire in the cave. Si Yue sat beside the campfire, propping her chin with both hands, gazing thoughtfully at the iron pot on the fire. God beef was stewing in the pot, which the Grand Elder had just put in.
It has to be said that the Fire Pit’s food was indeed magical. These people traveled through the Forbidden Zone for many years, not only having thods to avoid fierce beasts in the Forbidden Zone, but also able to hunt rare and exotic beasts.
According to Qin Yiyi, all children in the Fire Pit would eat the at of a beast called “Qiongqi” when they turned 12. This Qiongqi looks like a tiger, with a pair of wings on its back.
Children who eat Qiongqi at will have a fever for thirteen days, and their body temperature will even reach more than sixty degrees in a strange way.
At this ti, the adults would place them on the family bed, using them to warm the whole family, like a heater.
After the fever, the children’s physical growth would be extraordinary.
This is why people in the Federation always say that Fire Pit people are naturally strong.
At one point, listening to the stories about the Fire Pit, Si Yue even wanted to go with the Fire Pit to explore various Forbidden Zones.
At this mont, the Grand Elder continued to tell stories: “You know the No. 10 Forbidden Zone, right? That was originally our pasture. The so-called pasture is that although it is dangerous, all the rules have been known by the Fire Pit, so it’s not that dangerous. There’s a dragon pond there, and there are Dragon Fish in the dragon pond. After eating nine of them, you can strengthen your bones and muscles. A long ti ago, the Fire Pit would take nine Dragon Fish from there every year to feed to the most outstanding God Son at the coming-of-age ceremony. They were delicious.”
Si Yue sucked in a mouthful of saliva, “Are there any now?”
The Grand Elder suddenly said indignantly, “There were originally hundreds of fish there, but a group of unscrupulous people looted it once, causing the Dragon Fish inside to almost fail to recover. These people were so unreasonable, they didn’t understand the need to respect nature at all! Furthermore, in order to prevent the Fire Pit from fishing again, they actually captured a great expert from the Koshima family from sowhere and killed him and buried him there. More than ten years ago, an extrely ferocious rule suddenly appeared in the No. 10 Forbidden Zone. This rule killed many foreign treasure hunters, and even our Fire Pit couldn’t go there anymore…”
Si Yue and the others were all shocked when they heard this! There was actually such an operation?!
Only Li Ke’s expression was strange. He had just eaten eight Dragon Fish, and the master had promised to help him find another one.
And there were also many Dragon Fish sent by others in the Li Clan Ban Shan Mountain Estate.
Therefore, the answer to who had pitted the Fire Pit seed to be revealed.
However, at this mont, footsteps ca from outside the cave. Everyone turned their heads sharply and saw three figures slowly erging from the darkness.
Soone laughed and said, “I just heard soone talking bad about us…”
The Grand Elder was shocked when he heard this voice, “Shit! Not good!”
Saying this, he raised his black knife and pulled Qin Yiyi towards the depths of the cave, but the cave turned out to be a dead end, so he turned back.
