2012
Rank's workshop looked like a hardware store on the roadside. It was filled with all kinds of tools, including hammers, wrenches, knives, and so on.
Everyone was in line.
"Why is there a queue here?" The eldest cousin asked curiously.
"Because Frank doesn't like people who don't follow the rules. Queuing is Frank's rule." French said.
"What if they don't line up? At most we'll just steal it. " The eldest cousin said.
"Frank is one of the seventeen ghost generals." French said.
"Ah?" Seventeen Ghost Generals? Then why is he here? " the eldest cousin asked in surprise.
"He's in charge of creating the badges. He's the one who makes and sells the badges of the City of Fear, and all the money he earns is for the Ghost King." French said.
"So he's even from the government!" The eldest cousin was enlightened.
"Frank has a very terrifying skill. His memory is very good, and anyone he meets once, he will remember them. Not only his appearance, but also when he saw them. In the whole City of Fear, there is no one that Frank doesn't know, except you strangers." French said.
"Oh?" Hearing this, Xu Taiping was a little surprised, he thought he was the only one who had good photographic memory, he never thought that there would actually be someone here.
If you survive in the City of Fear for three years, you will be able to obtain the Fiend Badge. As long as you come to find Frank three years later, Frank will definitely recognize you and remember exactly when he saw you. At that time, he will be able to determine whether or not you stayed in the City of Fear for three years. French said.
"Then, if someone were to come and obtain the skeleton badge and leave the City of Fear, and return after three years, would that person be able to obtain the Fiend Badge as well?" the eldest cousin asked.
Yes, but that's meaningless. Although the Fiend Badge will make a lot of people fear you, there are still a lot of people who like to kill the Ghost Servants with the Demon President on them. This badge won't give you any privileges in the City of Fear, and on the contrary, it might make you the target of others. French said.
"So that's how it is!" The eldest cousin was enlightened.
A few people lined up and walked forward slowly.
Soon, it was everyone's turn.
Xu Taiping saw Frank for the first time.
It was an old man about sixty years old, very short, about 1.5 meters in height, but his limbs were very thick, giving off the impression of a dwarf from fantasy novels. Moreover, this Frank had a very long beard, and the beard was combed into a cross shape.
"I've never seen you." Frank sat behind a table, looking at Xu Taiping and the others as he spoke.
Xu Taiping saw a badge on Frank's chest, with a number on it.
Fifteen!
This Frank was ranked 15th among the Ghost Generals.
Xu Taiping felt a very strong pressure from his body. He estimated that this person was at least a Heaven Stage master, but as for what rank he was, he could only know after fighting with him.
"We have five skeleton badges." Xu Taiping said.
"Five, fifty thousand yuan." Frank said.
"10,000 yuan?!" the eldest cousin asked in surprise.
Frank glanced at his elder cousin, but didn't say anything.
"Give me the money." French said.
"Alright!" Xu Taiping nodded. Then, the older cousin opened the box, took out five stacks of money, and gave them to Frank.
Frank threw the five skeleton badges onto the table and said, "I wish you all a good time in the City of Fear. "Next."
Xu Taiping took the five badges and walked to the side, giving them to everyone.
"Hua Ze, what are your plans for the next battle?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Enter the Third Ring and find those people from a few days ago." Duanmu Huazhe said.
"If it's just you alone, I'm afraid you'll be in danger." Xu Taiping looked at French and said, "Can you find some bodyguards for my friend? It's best if it's a Phantom Soldier. "
"As long as the price is suitable, there's no problem at all. If it's a Ghost-Soldier, a Ghost-Soldier as a bodyguard would normally cost 100,000 yuan a day. Let's see how many you want." French said.
"Director Xu, there's no need to get bodyguards for me. I've already changed my appearance, and those people might not recognize me. If I bring bodyguards along, it'll just be too ostentatious." Duanmu Huazhe said.
"That's true." Xu Taiping nodded, and then said, "Since that's the case, you can go by yourself."
"En!" Duanmu Huanghun nodded, looked at French and said, "How do we go to the Third Ring?"
"Just continue along this road and you will reach the entrance of the Three Ring Area. However, are you sure you don't want to find a few ghost soldiers as bodyguards? " French asked.
"No need." Duanmu Huanghun shook his head, bidding Xu Taiping farewell and walking in the direction of the Third Ring.
Xu Taiping acknowledged Duanmu Huazhe's strength. With his ability, surviving in the Third Ring was very easy, as he had more important things to do at the moment, so he could only let Duanmu Huazhe go alone.
"Frankie, take your older cousin around. I need to find someone." Xu Taiping said.
"Looking for someone? You have friends in Terror City? I heard from you before that you seemed to have come to the City of Fear. " French said.
"Yes, I've been here before. I'm going to see a friend." Xu Taiping said.
"I think we should head in the direction of the Third Ring." Karwendish said.
12 o'clock at night, even if we kill the Ghost King, there's no point in waiting until 12 o'clock at night. I'll go see a friend of mine first, and if you want to go with me, you can follow me, but if you're not with me, you can go with French, elder cousin. Xu Taiping said.
"I have no confidence in anyone but you." Cavendish shook his head.
"Then French, just bring elder cousin with you. Elder cousin, you've seen what happened along the way. Whether or not we can do business here will depend on you." Xu Taiping said.
"Alright, let's go look around!" The eldest cousin nodded.
"Then let's split up first." As Xu Taiping spoke, he pulled Mi Jia Lie La to the side, followed by Kavan Di Xu.
"What are you guys doing here?" French asked curiously.
"I don't know about them. I'm here to inspect the market." The eldest cousin said.
"Market? Are you going to do business here? " French asked in surprise.
"En!" The eldest cousin nodded.
"What kind of business?" French asked.
"Arms!" The eldest cousin said.
"Weapon?!" French opened his eyes wide and burst out laughing. He said while laughing, "Are you sure you aren't mistaken? Selling weapons here?"
"Can't we? Could it be that the arms market is also controlled by the Spirit King? " the eldest cousin asked.
"No, but do you know why arms are as expensive as food here? This was because there weren't many people who were willing to sell arms here. No one here was worthy of being trusted. Who would dare to sell arms here? I can guarantee that when you trade for ten people, nine of them will beat you to death with the weapon you gave them, and one of them will kill you right at the start of the trade. There's no integrity here, and if everyone doesn't have weapons, they might even talk to you nicely, so once you give them weapons, they will definitely kill you first. There were many arms dealers in Europe who once tried to do business here, but the result is a loss of arms and a loss of arms. French said.
There's no business that you can't do. As long as it's someone who doesn't know how to do business, I still have to go and take a look. You can bring me around, but don't go to dangerous places. The eldest cousin said.
"Alright, then I'll bring you around!" French nodded.
On the other side.
At the city gate.
A group of people were riding a few specialized snowmobile vehicles, entering the City of Fear from outside the city gates.
The city gates of the City of Fear are unguarded, anyone who wants to enter can come out!
However, once they drove to the City of Fear, they would have to get off. The cities of the City of Fear didn't allow cars to travel between them, so everyone had to rely on cars to travel.
After the car stopped, many people came over.
Everyone knew that those driving this type of car were usually new players. They were looking for excitement, so they might be able to get some benefits from this new player.
The door opened and several tall bodyguards got out of the car. These people were armed to the teeth, wearing bulletproof clothing and holding various types of rifles. From the looks of it, they were not to be trifled with.
It was clear that some rich family's child had come for a winter tour of the City of Fear. This kind of person was not to be trifled with, because it was not against the law to kill people in the City of Fear and rich families often came here to kill people and play. Thus, most people would hide far away when they saw these rich family's child.
The bodyguard got out of the car and surrounded it. Then Henry got out.
"Why hasn't there been any news about the mercenary group I've hired?" Henry frowned at one of his men.
"I'm not sure. All calls were cut off." Henry's men said.
"What the hell, wasting my money!" What he did not know was that the mercenary he had hired had already become the food of the people in the City of Fear.
At this moment, a shifty-eyed person walked up to Henry.
"Mr. Henry." the man shouted to Henry.
"En!" Henry nodded and walked to the man's side. "Have you found Karwendi?"
"I noticed it long ago. My men are watching them!" The shifty-eyed man said.
"That's good. Watch them closely and don't let up for even a moment. Also, find me a place to stay quickly. I'm going to die from the cold!" Henry rubbed his hands together.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
