Chapter 964: The Train to Bahamut
The apt.i.tude users looked at the corpse that had been strung up, feeling terrified.
“Faceless Lord. They’re the top a.s.sa.s.sin on the a.s.sa.s.sin.net! I heard that they achieved S-tier 10 years ago and then disappeared without a trace!”
“Yeah! That’s gotta be them!”
“And just like that, they were killed! Then, just how strong is this new Black Alps Overlord?!”
For a moment, these people thought of an SS-tier apt.i.tude user and only felt more terrified!
“If the Black Alps Overlord has taken over the city, what about He Tianxing? Him too?”
News blew up one after another, making these apt.i.tude users extremely surprised.
Especially the members of the Human Alliance. They came with masks on their faces and worry in their hearts, only to find that the Dark Citadel had changed owners.h.i.+p. Not only that, the new apt.i.tude user that took over might be of SS-tier, how could they be at ease?
Would this person start setting their sights in-land?
Would this set off another war between the Dark Coalition and the Human Alliance?
This kind of thing was only going to give them groundless fears, as such they transferred the news to the Human Alliance to let the people in Dragon Capital a.n.a.lyze this.
In the Dark Citadel, Qin Feng invited Voodoo Lord and Shao Tai to stroll around, but the remaining two people did not really seem into it.
They had been thinking about the future before, but now they felt as if that was just some lofty daydream. With the Black Alps Overlord in the Dark Citadel, it was impossible to profit from here in the future!
Qin Feng noticed the expressions of the two and mentally smirked before saying, “It seems that the two of you have no interest in the Dark Citadel, so let’s talk about something interesting then! I just recently came, to be honest, I’m a rogue agent and not considered a member of the Dark Coalition. Of course, I haven’t joined the Human Alliance for the time being and since you Dark Coalition people invited me over first, I decided that I might as well have a look around!”
Rogue agents, or neutrals, did not belong to the Human Alliance and did not have any thoughts of officially joining the Human Alliance. They wandered all over the world, maybe doing tasks in the Human Alliance territory one day; dodging paperwork; and then on the next day run along with the Dark Coalition, buddying up with the criminals.
It made sense for Qin Feng to use this ident.i.ty as a cover.
At this time, Voodoo Lord and Shao Tai felt that Qin Feng gave off the impression of someone enigmatic and impossible to predict. They had no doubts about what he said and took it at face value.
If such a powerful being was within the Human Alliance, they would have known about it!
“Haha, this is a great honor. The Dark Coalition doesn’t have many constraints and there are many other races. You can join whenever you wish. If the Overlord has nothing to do, then perhaps you can come with us!”
Qin Feng did not plan to leave immediately. “What do you mean I have nothing to do? Doesn’t the Dusk Dragon Auction need me to be the host? Or else any Tom, d.i.c.k or Harry or whatever random nuisance would show up to cause trouble. I’m not a city duke who just lets people walk all over me!”
Voodoo Lord and Shao Tai who had originally come to cause trouble had cold sweat trickle down their backs. They were mildly angered about being regarded as a ‘random nuisance’, but they knew that this was also his method of knocking a warning into them.
Qin Feng smirked to himself when he saw the two’s expressions, but on the surface he remained as calm as could be.
“We can make an appointment again after a week. It’s better if you two stick around to enjoy the scenery, I’d recommend the beach. The scenery there is great. There’s also the Dusk Dragon Auction where there are plenty of great items you can purchase!”
Voodoo Lord and Shao Tai really wanted to leave, but also thought that maybe the reason Qin Feng invited them to stay was to deliberately keep tabs on them.
At that moment, they did not dare refute Qin Feng’s words and agreed to remain.
Qin Feng was not bothered about them after that. He was going to take this week to rest. Meanwhile during the auction, plenty of resources were sold. From the ones taken from the hunts on Dragon Island and the ultra beast materials obtained during the Amazon Alliance incident. They were auctioned off and exchanged for new resources to supply Qin Feng and Bai Li’s cultivation.
Especially Bai Li, who had become an S-tier beast deity. If she wanted to develop further, it would be a huge investment!
The Dusk Dragon Auction went off without a hitch, and during this time, Qin Feng noticed that about ten S-tiers had come over. This was due to the ident.i.ty of the ‘Black Alps Overlord’. After the rumors spread out, many people thought that he was an SS-tier apt.i.tude user.
Such a strong person must have valuable things. As such, the S-tiers came one after another and they did not come in vain. They all left with something they wanted.
After that, many apt.i.tude users went to the Ancient Tree Island. After these people left, they would not return for another month and he did not need to worry.
A week later, Qin Feng picked up the beast-shaped Bai Li and hid her under his cloak before meeting with Voodoo Lord.
It was necessary to bring Bai Li over. She could travel through any realm and if there was something wrong, they would also have a way out.
“This time we must first go to a realm connected to the Bahamut continent via a spatial rift. That is the Dark Coalition’s temporary stronghold!”
As Shao Tai explained the situation, Qin Feng listened, and also discovered the difference between the Human Alliance and the Dark Coalition.
In the Human Alliance, blood was needed to make the badges and they were very strict about ident.i.ty verification. Meanwhile the Dark Coalition was different, having very little emphasis on that.
It was far more chaotic, and contained many different species. Among them were the Wraith Devil species, the Dragon-borne species and others that treated humanity like food.
Fortunately, Earth’s Alliances, whether it be the Human Alliance or Dark Coalition, have both agreed to not disclose information about their realm in order to protect it from harm. At the same time, they were not worried about these beings coming over and invading.
“Let’s go then!”
Shao Tai and Voodoo Lord smiled and nodded, but they were still extremely wary. The three stepped through a spatial pa.s.sage and in the next moment, they were in another realm.
The surrounding scenery came into view. In an instant Qin Feng felt as if he had stepped foot on the Floating City. He was surrounded by extremely advanced machinery, high rise buildings with flas.h.i.+ng advertis.e.m.e.nts and all. When he spread out his consciousness to check, he realized that this indeed was a Floating City.
He did not expect this realm to have such advanced technology as well.
Qin Feng took out the communicator provided by Voodoo Lord, and the moment he put it on, it was already connected to the regional channel which was broadcasting a message.
Beep beep. Announcement. s.h.i.+p D214 will be jumping in half an hour to a high danger zone, the Bahamut realm, please board as soon as possible!
This news did not sound anything like exploring a new and dangerous realm. It sounded more like your standard announcement for boarding a train.
Who would have thought that there would be such convenient transportation to a realm originally described to be dangerous by the Skeletal Fiend.
“Hah, we’re right on time. There just so happens to be a s.h.i.+p. Come on, let’s go!” Voodoo Lord said quickly with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
Qin Feng narrowed his eyes, there was something slightly fishy about it but he did not look too much into it. Different situations called for different actions!
