Battles in games and movies: happy starting points, fierce battles, rich loot, no troubles and no subsequent effects, victory in every battle from one glory to another.
Real-life battles: Every battle is an alternation of life and death. No one can guarantee that he will win. Every battle is a cautious decision, and the impact of each war is year by year or even by several years.
Calculated in ten years.
A reckless and passionate young warrior, no matter why he goes to the battlefield for any reason, he will change when he lives to a certain age and has seen blood and glory, death and desperate situations.
Some people are drunk and dreaming in hotels, some are having a great time in casinos, some are calmly reading books and recalling the flash of killing, some are tapping countless amounts of money, numbly and crazily venting their desires.
But for Lu Ping'an, who already had nothing, he seemed to be discovering that he was alive and still alive.
"Your life is really valuable."
"Oh, if they want it, come and get it."
Walking calmly on the streets of the Secret Steam Factory, surrounded by looks that were either wary or longing, Lu Ping'an still smiled calmly and his tone was as calm as water.
This is not a safe zone, on the contrary, it is a restricted area for ordinary people, a land with the highest "evaporation rate".
But even if he was alone, no bounty hunter dared to stop him.
The real local gangsters here, the bosses of the underworld, came in a hurry after receiving the notice.
The bosses behind various black market organizations such as "Nine Leaves" and "Heart-Eating Ghost" are regarded as demon kings in the eyes of black market people. Now they run up to the young people out of breath, gather in a group, and take the initiative to say hello.
When Lu Ping'an first came here, he was really a guy who had to be careful every step of the way, but now
"Hello bosses, I just came over to see what you are doing."
"Hehe, Brother Lu, we heard that you are here. No, it's rare that you have time to come over. We landlords are supposed to be hosts, so we just want to treat you to lunch."
What I said was extremely humble.
But Lu Ping An also understood that they did not dare to let Lu Ping An wander around here.
In the past, when Mr. Lu was just a minion, he could only hold back when he saw various gray industries. But now, if he really has "justice disease", I am afraid that the secret realm of the steam factory will become history tomorrow.
And since there were rumors that the "trading place" was the private property of the person in front of him, he really had this motive and found a reason to go crazy and destroy this secret black market place that was stealing business.
The most terrible thing is, if he really does this
"It's reasonable, compliant, and legal, and many people will applaud it."
This makes people feel numb.
And considering that he had previous experience in bloody battles on the underworld, his strength at that time was beyond his level. It is said that the professional mercenaries of his opponent, the Cross River Raptors, are still serving under him. Who is he really?
Everything can be done.
So, when they heard that Lu Ping'an had appeared directly on the street, the gangsters who figured everything out in an instant were frightened to death, put aside all important matters, and hurried over.
"Don't worry, I'm not here to cause trouble today."
In other words, can it be tomorrow?
Lu Ping'an didn't come here for "general cleaning". After all, he knew that there must be "toilets" in cities, otherwise those filthy things would have nowhere to put them and would be everywhere.
This wave of demographic dividend has not only enriched the city's surface, but also the gray and black organizations and forces below are growing and expanding like crazy.
After all, if foreigners with power really want to seek profit without resorting to means, money will come in faster in the black market and gray society.
Because of the rapid expansion of these forces, frictions occurred several times in the inner and outer worlds.
These big guys came so quickly because they had a guilty conscience
"Then you're here to see the goods, that's good, that's good"
To the gray power bosses, this is equivalent to one party coming to the door with a deadly weapon. Since the other party says that they are just passing by, then naturally they will not take the initiative to challenge them.
On the contrary, after they return, they will restrain their little brother and ask him not to cause trouble during this period, at least until the disaster star leaves the earth.
In their opinion, maybe Lu Ping'an walked in so openly just to intimidate the tiger.
"If you don't restrain yourself, you won't be passing by next time you come."
There is no need to say this so clearly.
Lu Ping'an smiled slightly and said calmly:
"I'm here to buy something. My car needs to be modified and I need some rare materials."
As he spoke, he took out a list of materials.
"Why do you have to go there in person and just say no?"
One by one, the bosses immediately expressed their opinions enthusiastically, and immediately called the younger brothers, and assigned them one by one to purchase and adjust the goods immediately. They wished that Lu Ping An would immediately take the things and walk away. Lu Ping An knew that if he did not come, he would hand over the goods instead.
None of these people can find a single list of materials.
When did these gangsters become so honest and friendly? When a gun was put to their head, and Lu Ping An was the gun.
Lu Ping'an was not in a hurry, he gave the other party enough time, and even sat in a teahouse according to their arrangement, drank tea and read the newspaper in peace, knowing that they would come back to him.
Sure enough, half an hour later, when most of the onlookers had lost interest, these bosses came back with smiling faces.
"We can handle most of the materials above, but it's just the end."
The last few pages of the spread out documents were full of names.
Among them, there are wanted criminals with huge bounties on serious cases, criminals from outside the country who are hiding here, and notorious cultists. The only thing they have in common is that they are all enemies of the security of the ancient city.
"Is there anything wrong with these 'materials'?"
Facing the other party's question, Lu Ping'an just answered calmly, as if they were not murderers but real materials.
"This, this, some people are really not here with us."
"Then, I will wait until the materials are ready before leaving. You don't need to worry about me. I will go to the street to drink tea and stroll around later."
You are strolling on this street, how dare other people do illegal transactions?
As long as he is here for a day, the transaction volume will be reduced by at least half, and everyone will be in danger. If he stays here permanently, it will mean that the black market will be completely abolished.
"We will get it together, but there are some people we can't do anything about."
"Just tell me the location."
Lu Pingan smiled and seemed very reasonable.
And this act itself also means that the entire black market has bowed its head to the ancient city officials and the Alien Management Bureau.
This also means that "gray individuals" must be cautious in their words and deeds, and the gray organizations here cannot protect them.
"Of course it's a good thing to make money, but it's not good if it violates social order and good customs." Lu Ping'an smiled, but he was talking to these bosses, nodding their heads one by one.
