Chapter XVIII The Gold Gathering City
After taking care of all the little Rolos from the Raging Dragon Gang, Ling Feng returned to the valley passage and continued onward with Qian'Er and the rest! A few hours later, Ling Feng and the others entered the Bedlam Lands, a place where both death and opportunity coexisted!
This was the heaven of all wicked people, the heaven of the strong!
As long as you have power here, then you are God! On the contrary, if he didn't have enough strength, then this would be the equivalent of living a hellish life!
In the Bedlam Lands, there were basically three types of people. One was people who had come to seek refuge, one was people who had come for power and wealth, and the last was people who had come to train themselves!
Of course, Ling Feng did not belong to any of these three categories, because his goal was very clear, and that was to subdue the entire Bedlam Lands and establish this place as his base of operations, a base that could develop his strength!
From the moment the five of them entered the Bedlam Lands, they discovered that something was different! After entering the Bedlam Lands, they had met humans several times, but their reactions were different after meeting them!
The moment they saw Ling Feng and the others, some of them fled into the mountain forest as if they had seen a devil! Some of them even went up to greet him with a smile while introducing him to the others. However, the information here only required a fee!
Others were less friendly, thinking that the moment they met, a hungry wolf would immediately devour Ling Feng and the others as if they had seen food! Of course, the result was that they never looked at each other again!
However, most of them only watched coldly from the sidelines, as if they were always on guard against others, afraid of being ambushed!
Ling Feng understood all of this very well. After all, Ling Feng came from a secret service in his previous life, and had been in some war-torn regions. When he was on mission, he encountered a situation very similar to this one!
In a place like this, other than those who could be trusted with their lives, there was no one else who could be trusted! If you are naive enough to think that the people here are trustworthy, then you will definitely not see the sun tomorrow!
Before this, he would have died together with you and fought bravely against the enemy, but in the next moment, he would have pointed his weapon at you! This was the rule of this place, and this was the Bedlam Lands!
In the Bedlam Lands, there were many complicated forces. There were tens of thousands of big and small forces, and with every passing moment, there would be an old faction being destroyed and new forces being born!
There were ten strongest forces in the Bedlam Lands. Each of them occupied the largest and most robust city in the Bedlam Lands! And the force closest to Ling Feng and the others that Ling Feng knew of, was the 'Wild Dragon Gang'!
The Berserk Dragon Gang was one of the ten largest forces in the Bedlam Lands. It occupied several tunnels leading outside of the city, and at the same time, it possessed a vast and fertile territory!
"I never thought that I'd have to face one of the top ten forces, the 'Berserk Dragon Gang', as soon as I entered the Bedlam Lands ?" Ling Feng could not help but feel a little shocked, even though Ling Feng and the rest were not afraid of the ten so-called powers! However, they had only just entered the Bedlam Lands and had yet to establish their own forces. Hence, it was not a good thing to be hostile to an established force!
This way, Ling Feng would encounter some obstacles in the process of establishing his power. For example, there would be some people who would not choose to join Ling Feng's power because they were afraid of the forces of the 'Berserk Dragon Gang'!
The Bedlam Lands could be said to be extremely chaotic, but no matter how chaotic it was, there was still a rule!
The cities that were relatively more peaceful in the Bedlam Lands were the ones controlled by the ten great forces! This was because in such a chaotic place, a relatively safe place would bring them a massive amount of wealth!
Aside from the ten major cities, the Bedlam Lands also had many large and small cities and thousands of them. However, most of them were built by the major powers, so they were relatively smaller. Some of them were even built directly from small villages!
Even so, to be able to own a city in the Bedlam Lands meant that the power within was still very strong!
After Ling Feng and the rest entered the Bedlam Lands, they did not enter the city controlled by the Raging Dragon Gang. Instead, they chose a city built by a small faction!
The name of this city was, Gold Gathering City!
Although the name was a bit local, one could tell from the name that the owner of this city hoped that this city could become his treasure trove and help him earn more wealth! As the saying goes, money comes from energy. Therefore, this city was relatively safe!
Of course, this was not the reason why Ling Feng chose this place. The reason why Ling Feng chose this place was because he was the closest to the city!
After entering the vulgar name of Gold Gathering City, Ling Feng discovered that it was not vulgar at all!
In the city, Ling Feng saw that this was not the case. As they had imagined, the various factions pulling poles and flags were not the type of scene where slaughter could be seen everywhere! It was squads of mercenaries patrolling the city!
These mercenaries were all city lords. They had spent money to help protect the city and the security of the city! It was the equivalent of a city guard!
"Sigh, I didn't expect the security here to be so good. I thought there would be blood splashing all over the streets, and broken limbs everywhere!" Qian'er sighed and said!
"You seem very disappointed. Do you really want to see blood splatter on the streets and your limbs broken?!" Ling Feng rolled his eyes and said!
"Yeah, I've been looking forward to this for a long time!"
After all, couldn't this maid be more obedient? Along the way, there had been at least dozens of battles caused by Ling Feng and the others!
From this, it could be seen that she was indeed the descendant of a beauty that would bring disaster upon an entire country. Regardless of her appearance or her character, it was all the same to her!
After their internal ridicule, Ling Feng and the others also started to stroll around the Gold Gathering City. They discovered that this place was pretty similar to the city outside, if this wasn't the Bedlam Lands!
On the surface, it seemed that this Gold Gathering City was very bustling. One could even buy some high grade cultivation techniques and battle skills here. It was unimaginable outside! Of course, no one would even dare to think about the price!
"It seems like the lord of this Gold Gathering City should be a businessman. To be able to develop this into a large trading city, this city is definitely not simple!" Ling Feng said!
"Of course, I just heard that the mayor of this city comes from a business background. It's said that he's one of the richest people in the Bedlam Lands, but he's just not in the mood to take over the Bedlam Lands. Otherwise, these ten great powers would definitely have a place for her ?" Qian'er also interrupted!
"Where did you hear all this from?" Ling Feng was extremely suspicious!
"I heard it from someone else on the way!" Qian'er explained to everyone once again what the word 'hearsay' meant!
"Moreover, I heard that the city lord of this city is a woman, and a great beauty at that ?" Qian'er once again revealed the news as she winked at Ling Feng! It was as though he was saying, "Beauty, aiya, are you interested?"
Ling Feng chose to ignore them! Ling Feng did not care whether the City Lord of Gold Gathering City was a beauty or not. What Ling Feng cared about was the City Lord's ability. To be able to establish such a prosperous and stable city in such a chaotic land, the City Lord's ability was very powerful!
This was exactly what Ling Feng needed. Building power and wealth was indispensable, and the fastest way to obtain wealth was through business! Ling Feng needed a business talent right now, and this was the perfect city lord for that!
