Chapter 27 Obsidian City and the Association of Bounty Hunters
Soon, Liu Feng finished his meal and sat cross-legged to continue practicing.
After entering Samsung, Liu Feng's cultivation by relying only on the circulation of heaven and earth has not had much effect. Although there is still improvement, it is just a drop of water into the lake. If he wants to make a breakthrough, it is impossible to practice quietly for a few months.
This is not what Liu Feng wants. Although he has a tough temperament, it does not mean that he is willing to use stupid methods to waste time with his enemies. After all, his enemy Yun Tianqi is also a genius, and his starting point is much higher than him.
If he only relied on his own cultivation, he wouldn't be able to catch up with him in many years, and he might even be far away from Yun Tianqi. This was something Liu Feng couldn't accept.
Therefore, Liu Feng must seize every minute and every second to practice while also looking for some ways to become stronger quickly, and going to the Bounty Hunter Association is an important part of his plan.
With the physique to absorb evil spirits, Liu Feng's innate conditions are better than those of ordinary holy soul practitioners. He can absorb more evil spirits by hunting evil people, and then use evil spirits to promote his cultivation.
The Bounty Hunters Association is one of the most famous associations in the Holy Soul Continent. By registering as a bounty hunter, you can find various bounty missions in the Bounty Hunters Association, including many missions to hunt evildoers.
Liu Feng went to the Bounty Hunter Association to register as a bounty hunter, then complete various tasks of hunting evildoers as a bounty hunter to obtain evil souls, and then use the bounty rewards to purchase soul stones, thus forming a virtuous cycle.
Although those tasks are very dangerous, can they be any more dangerous than the jungles of Ghana? After surviving in the jungles of Ghana for two months and traveling through the jungles of Ghana, Liu Feng’s ability to protect himself is no longer the same. If this were the case,
If he still dies in the mission next time, he can only blame himself for his lack of strength. He will not blame others.
Soon, Liu Feng entered a state of trance. Seeing Liu Feng sitting quietly with his eyes closed, Ouyang and the others did not dare to disturb Liu Feng, so they quietly walked aside to mess with their affairs.
After practicing for a while, Liu Feng introduced his soul power into his right hand to try to stimulate an unknown energy that was sleeping. This was another energy that he absorbed after killing Delan last time.
This energy has been staying quietly in Liu Feng's body without any movement. He has no idea what effect it has, and it has no harm or impact on his body. It is as lifeless as an old scar and has no reaction no matter how much it is stimulated.
Liu Feng's intuition told him that this energy was not simple, and good things would happen once he studied it clearly, so he kept trying to control and stimulate this energy, but failed every time.
It was rare that he was in a safe zone today. Liu Feng tried to increase his soul power output to stimulate this mysterious energy. However, after a lot of efforts, he still failed. There was still no response from this energy.
In desperation, Liu Feng had to give up and turn all his thoughts back to cultivation.
As time goes by, the night gradually gets deeper, but Liu Feng is still practicing, but he is also sleeping. This is another unique skill he forced out in the dangerous jungle of Ghana. He can use the practice of entering a trance state to replace the necessary sleep.
.
Moreover, while entering trance, Liu Feng's vigilance to the outside world did not weaken at all. In the second half of the night, he suddenly felt something approaching him. He immediately opened his eyes and activated the Horcrux gun, completing the operation in a tenth of a second.
A series of actions such as raising the gun and aiming, frightened those who approached him and made them stand still.
After taking a closer look, the person who came was none other than Lin Qing, the doctor in the six-person team. This 16-year-old girl was petrified by Liu Feng's sudden outburst and stared motionlessly at the pistol in front of her. Although she was not
She knew what kind of weapon it was, but her intuition told her that the Horcrux in front of her was very dangerous.
Liu Feng couldn't help but narrowed his eyes, and then moved his gaze downward. When he saw the small quilt in Lin Qing's hand, he understood what Lin Qing was doing.
At that moment, Liu Feng put down his hand and took back the Horcrux, then turned and walked away without looking back: "I don't need these things, and you are not allowed to approach me without my permission."
When he finished speaking, Liu Feng was already fifty meters away and sat down on a rock to continue practicing.
Lin Qing stared at Liu Feng blankly, as if he hadn't come back to his senses yet, but an unhappy female voice sounded: "Tsk, you are so kind as a dog, Qingqing, let's go, leave this guy alone."
The person who came was none other than Yuli, a female man. Behind Yuli were Badal and Zuo Long. It turned out that when Yuli saw Lin Qing getting up quietly, he followed him out, while the other two were keeping watch. They didn't expect that.
Lin Qing was kind enough to give her a quilt, but her face was warm and her butt was cold, so everyone felt dissatisfied with Lin Qing.
However, after listening to Yuli's words, Lin Qing was silent for a few seconds and then said with an obsessed look on his face: "He is so handsome, so cool."
"..." The three of them were speechless.
In the end, Lin Qing stopped trying to deliver the quilt, and the others ignored Liu Feng, and the night passed by.
Early the next morning, everyone packed up and set out again. Finally, at close to 12 noon, they arrived at the location of one of the branches of the Bounty Hunter Association, which is also the gathering place for adventurers within a radius of more than 400 kilometers - Obsidian City.
.
Obsidian City is a special city. It is close to the border of the Xia Yue Empire and is only more than fifty kilometers away from the Ghana jungle. There are many places frequented by adventurers for hundreds of miles nearby, and many merchants are stationed and permanent residents.
With a population of nearly 150,000 and a daily floating population of more than 20,000, it can be called a medium-to-large city.
However, the Xia Yue Empire's ability to control this city is very low, or it may be said that it deliberately allows this city to be mixed, gangs are rampant, murders and arson are common, and almost every adventurer comes here
Every city must be alert at all times, otherwise you will still be counting money for others if you are sold.
However, this seemingly chaotic city has rules. It is controlled and managed by three major forces. If someone makes too much trouble, they will be jointly suppressed by the three major forces, and the methods can be described as deception and abduction.
Extremely, many people don’t know how they died.
At the same time, the relationship between the three major forces is complicated. Sometimes they are friends, and sometimes they are life and death enemies. It is unclear what their next step will be, causing many people to secretly curse the three major forces for their lack of moral integrity.
and backbone.
On the way to Obsidian City, Ouyang introduced the situation in Obsidian City to Liu Feng and hinted that Liu Feng had better keep a low profile after entering the city. Although the four-star holy souls can definitely run rampant in this city, Liu Feng
After all, Feng is a loner and has an extremely cold and arrogant temperament. If someone takes notice of him, he will have to face day and night calculations.
Liu Feng did not comment on Ouyang's kind persuasion. However, people who knew him well knew that it was absolutely impossible for him to change his style. His coldness and arrogance had become instinctive, and he was a typical person who would rather bend than bend!
Ouyang didn't know about these things, and even if he knew, he wouldn't say anything. He reminded Liu Feng just because of the generous benefits Liu Feng had given him. Now that he had said everything he needed to say, he had done his utmost to be benevolent and righteous.
Obsidian City is divided into an outer city and an inner city. The outer city is where the poor, beggars and low-class gangsters live. There are a mixture of dragons and snakes, there are not even a few merchants, and there is no city wall protection. Once attacked, there will definitely be a lot of casualties.
After passing through the outer city, you will see the majestic city wall with an average height of eight meters and a maximum of more than 12 meters. After passing the city wall, you will find the place where ordinary citizens, rich people and the three major forces live. This place can be called a real city.
Obsidian City, with a total population of about 80,000, is controlled by the three major forces. It has more rules than the outer city and is also a paradise for businessmen.
Because adventurers will enter the inner city to buy or sell things they get from adventures. As long as they buy them back and resell them, they can make a lot of money.
Faced with the huge temptation of profit, many adventurers would even set up their own stalls. The three major forces also set up the square on the east side of the inner city as an area specifically for adventurers to set up stalls and trade, and stationed people here to provide services for those selling things.
Adventurers provide protection, and all the adventurers need to pay is only one-fifth of the income. Compared with one-third of the official commercial tax of the Xia Yue Empire, it is simply a model of light corvee and low taxation.
Ouyang and others brought Liu Feng to the Bounty Hunter Association, immediately handed over the task of hunting the Thunderstorm Ape, and then went to Dongcheng Square to set up a street stall. This time, their gains were not small, and they had no losses. It was a big deal.
A bumper harvest, if it weren't for Liu Feng, they would probably be smiling all the way back.
In fact, Liu Feng was largely responsible for why Ouyang and others ran so fast. It was too depressing to stay with him. The six of them were extremely nervous all the way. Now that the mission was completed, they naturally wanted to get out of the way quickly.
Only the little girl Lin Qing was reluctant to leave Liu Feng, but she had no choice but to leave due to the pull of her teammates.
After the group of people left, Liu Feng strode into the association branch.
Although it is only a branch, as a major force spread across major cities in the Holy Soul Continent, the Bounty Hunters Association still attaches great importance to its brand image, so even the branch is very luxurious, with expensive decoration, and covers an area close to a football
Although there are many people coming in and out, the venue is very clean. There are three cleaners near the gate, and eight guards stand guard at the gate. After entering, you can see the beautiful receptionist with a smiling face, which makes Liu Feng feel good.
What it's like to come back to Earth and step into a big company.
In this atmosphere, the adventurers who come here are very polite, and even the unruly ones will restrain themselves. The strong atmosphere of rules makes people instinctively abide by them, which shows the existence of the Bounty Hunter Association.
For thousands of years, it has not only expanded blindly, but also cultivated its own corporate culture across the ages.
Liu Feng saw this in his eyes and couldn't help but have a good impression of the Bounty Hunter Association. He immediately walked to the counter and said in a less cold tone: "I want to register as a bounty hunter."
When the receptionist heard this, she did not show any abnormality because Liu Feng was in tatters and dirty. She kept a sweet professional smile and said: "Sir, you need to pay a registration fee of ten gold coins to register as a bounty hunter."
Liu Feng nodded and immediately handed over ten gold coins. This money was given to him by Youlan. There were originally a total of fifty gold coins, but he had never had the chance to use them. It was only now that he made his first purchase.
