After officially entering Hongxia City through the wall, the first thing you see is a wide street with tall buildings on both sides of the street, but they are a bit dilapidated.

The three of them continued walking along the street. It was still daytime, but they saw many unopened shops and few passers-by on the street. Their footsteps echoed around them, and a dull and depressing atmosphere filled the air.

, it makes people feel suffocated.

"Daozi, I heard about this kind of atmosphere when I was a child. It would be like this when bandits attacked or when soldiers passed by the village. It is a mixture of fear and confusion of not knowing the way forward."

Ye Wanjun was half a step behind and followed Lin Ji in a low voice. He was one of the five artistic conception foundation builders who came to Water Blue Star this time and was one of the main combat forces. Also coming with him was his wife Cai Shan.<

/p>

"You had quite a lot of experience when you were a kid. You were much better than me."

Lin Ji said with a smile.

"Um... I was too young at that time, so I don't remember it clearly. I only heard it occasionally from the elderly at home."

Ye Wanjun scratched his head in embarrassment and said no more.

The three of them continued to move forward, planning to go to the Adventurer's Guild established in this city to sell the tiger on Yue Feng's back in exchange for money and to inquire about the news.

Suddenly, a fierce quarrel came from the Adventurer's Guild ahead. Lin Ji became interested, and the three of them sped up.

The Adventurer's Guild is a modern building located in the center of the city. It is like a huge glass hive, full of a sense of technology and the future. It is a building made mainly of steel and glass.

On the right side of the hall is a neat row of counters. This is the guild service desk, which provides adventurers with various consultation and transaction services. On the left side, you can see a huge digital screen, which scrolls with various tasks and adventurers' information.

Ranking.

As soon as Lin Ji and the other three entered the door, they discovered the source of the quarrel. A boy about 15 years old was hugging a man's thigh tightly, with tears and snot smeared on it. The middle-aged man was dressed in extraordinary clothes, and he looked like a successful man.

, and the mentality is good, how can I be angry when being held like this.

"Don't force me to do it, Chen Chen! How many times have I told you since yesterday that Chen Peng took this task himself, no one forced him. If your father's adventure group does not come back, it is because of his own lack of strength. Even the Nine Warriors

I haven’t even defeated the night sabers on the previous level, so I can’t blame the Adventurer’s Guild!”

"Uncle Ye, my dad may not be dead yet. Can you send someone out to search and rescue him? I am willing to use the family's property as reward."

Chen Chen's words were filled with tears. He was only a fourth-level warrior. Leaving Hongxia City alone to find someone would be a death. He could only ask for help from the president of the Adventurer's Guild, who had always had a good reputation. His mother had passed away long ago, and he did not want to lose her again.

Father.

"Chen Chen, the current situation is not right. I can't help you with this matter. Please take a rest first."

After Ye Youkong finished speaking, he knocked Chen Chen unconscious with force and pulled out his leg.

"Take him down and arrange a room for him."

Looking at the stains on his trousers, Ye Youkong frowned and ordered his subordinates around him, and then left the hall, which disappointed Lin Ji, who thought there was something big going on.

There were no surprises in what happened next. After exchanging some money with the tiger's body and inquiring into some gossip, Lin Ji took the people out of here.

……

In the dim night, under the neon lights, in a small cafe, Lin Ji drank coffee, tasting its bitterness, and looked at the night view outside the window with a nostalgic look.

"Daozi, aren't we going back?"

After swallowing the bitter liquid called coffee in one breath, Ye Wanjun asked strangely. Although Yue Feng on the side did not speak, judging from the speed of his eating and drinking, he did not really want to stay here, even if Hongxia City was very crowded.

Novelty.

"The storm is coming. Something is going to happen tonight. How can we leave? Moreover, the strength of these warriors is not very good. According to their classification, the artistic conception foundation building is probably equivalent to a military general or a martial saint, and the only martial saint in Hongxia City is

It’s the dead lord, what do we have to be afraid of?”

Lin Ji shook his head with a relaxed expression and said, Ye Wanjun and the other two could not abandon Lin Ji and go back on their own. They could only stay with him and silently prepare themselves to break up.

The clock in the coffee shop was ticking, and the three of them waited from nine o'clock until the early morning. When all the other customers left, Lin Ji's radiated mental power finally detected something different.

"Let's go."

Lin Ji put down his cup and stood up. Ye Wanjun and Yue Feng also stood up immediately. The three of them left the cafe together and flew towards the center of the city.

In addition to the Adventurer's Guild, there is also a very important place in the center of the city, where the Ye family, the lord of Hongxia City, is located.

High in the sky, Lin Ji used illusions to hide the three figures and slowly approached the center of the city. From a distance, he saw two groups of people fighting. Their strength was not very good. The strongest one only had the strength of an ordinary foundation builder. They were fighting in small quantities.

Average.

However, Lin Ji did not act rashly. He wanted to see how things would develop next and how much power would be mobilized by the ownership of a city. Anyway, he did not believe that ordinary foundation building could lead to dominance here, and human technology could fully cope with it.

Boom! Boom!

Explosions kept coming, and after a while, the winner was determined below. Although the Ye family had a large number of firearms, grenades and other items, there were few strong individuals. They were surprised to be broken through from the front. The first line was the strongest.

After the Ye family's defense was breached, the Ye family had almost no room for resistance.

……

"Uncle, the night guard can no longer stop me. There is still time. You can leave quickly alone. Don't worry about me. I am still valuable and they will not kill me."

In the room at Yejia Center, the 12-year-old Loli, who inherited blond hair and blue eyes because of her mother, suppressed her fear and mustered up the courage to persuade her uncle to leave.

Her uncle Ye Youkong is the younger brother of the head of the Ye family. He has the strength of a military commander. He is the high-end combat power in Hongxia City and the president of the Adventurers Guild. But at this moment, the face of this superior man was full of panic, and he looked anxiously.

Look out the window to see the situation while comforting your niece.

"Zixian, don't worry. I have asked Luoye City for help some time ago. We can survive together, I promise."

Ye Youkong's lips trembled a little when he spoke, showing that he was extremely nervous. He still had hope of escaping here alone, but the fate of his niece was hard to say. Zixi was his only relative, and he couldn't give up.

Sensing movement in the distance, Ye Youkong took Ye Zixi into the basement. Thinking about the Ye family servants who might still be alive outside, he finally felt cruel and pressed the button of the C4 explosive in his hand.

Boom!
Chapter completed!
