Chapter 56: Returning to Sky Moon City, Are You Here to Extort?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As an old player of New World,
Perhaps Lin Chen did not know much about invaders like Gold Spear, Mo Yi, and Winter.
However, he was very familiar with the map in the game.
Thinking of the locations of Sky Moon City and Ice Snow City, it was really possible that they could be connected.
However… it was very difficult!
Lin Chen needed to be powerful enough to make the Dragon Spirit Kingdom and Ice Nation give up all the territory between the two cities.
How would that be possible?
Lin Chen temporarily buried this thought in his heart.
At this moment, they were almost at Sky Moon City.
They came from the north and passed by Bai Shuyi’s hometown, the Shanghai!
Now, this city that used to be the most prosperous city in the Dragon Kingdom had completely turned into ruins.
There were ruins everywhere.
The tall buildings in the past had almost all been knocked down.
When they passed by the official road and saw the city, they could also find many monsters and demon beasts entrenched there… These places were already their habitat.
In addition, various green plants could be seen growing rapidly in the ruins.
Seeing that Lin Chen was paying attention to the changes in Shanghai, Winter smiled and said, “Actually, I think that the people of the Blue Planet are quite smart. A large city like this can gather a lot of people. In addition, some technology on the Blue Planet is also very interesting… However, all the rules have changed now. By the way, is your cell phone invention no longer usable? Sigh! This is what I regret the most.”
“Mr. Winter, you know a lot about the Blue Planet!” Lin Chen’s words were actually a test.
Winter smiled and said, “Yes, we all know a lot! However, destroying the weapons system and technology of the Blue Planet is not something we can decide. We can only listen to the higher-ups. Although I personally regret losing the technology of mobile phones, there’s nothing we can do.”
“I didn’t expect that there would be someone among the invaders who would feel sorry for the Blue Planet.”
Lin Chen’s words were undoubtedly filled with mockery.
“I’m a pure businessman. I’m just trying to make money.”
Winter was not angry at all. Instead, he spread his hands regretfully and said, “If, I mean if, our invasion method was gentle and we tried to coexist with you people from the Blue Planet, then I believe that I can definitely take over your cell phone business and take this business into the Divine Hall… Now, you should know how much I’ve lost!”
Lin Chen did not mock these words anymore.
Because he knew that Winter was speaking the truth.
This merchant had great vision, boldness, and strength.
His vision was that he could acutely see business opportunities.
Boldness was that he had given him more than a million gold coins just because he wanted Lin Chen and Ling Xiaoya to put in a good word for him to the Blue Planet people of Sky Moon City.
His strength was his wealth!
How could a person who casually gave away a million gold coins be poor?
“But it’s a pity that the technology on the Blue Planet is destined not to come back.” Winter still looked very regretful.
However, Lin Chen was thinking: ‘Is it really impossible for the technology to come back?’
Not necessarily!
What if the people of the Blue Planet made a comeback in the future?
At that time, would he be able to return to his once beautiful home and prosperous cities?
Unknowingly, the few of them had already arrived at the monster area not far from Sky Moon City.
This was a monster area from Level 40 to Level 60. There were already many people in Sky Moon City leveling up here. They were all from the Blue Planet in Sky Moon City, but today, a group of uninvited guests had arrived.
Some men in gorgeous clothes came to this area.
However, they didn’t attack the Blue Planet people here.
However, their actions were also very infuriating.
When a team of the Blue Planet people beat a monster to a critical level and only had a trace of health left, someone among these people would kill the monster!
Wasn’t this blatant kill stealing!
Soon, someone returned to the city to report this matter.
Later, Zhang Chunlin personally brought the Tianyue Knights to investigate, but he realized that he knew this person.
Sea Conqueror Province, De Castle’s Fourth Young Master, Dela.
“Young Master Dela, what do you mean?” Zhang Chunlin’s expression was very ugly.
De Castle.
In Sea Conqueror Province, De Castle was the name of the city-state established by the De Family, one of the eight great families.
The De Family were nobles of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom, and they were a powerful force in the Sea Conqueror Province.
Just this morning, Dela, the fourth young master of De Castle, came to look for Lin Chen, but Lin Chen was not around, so Zhang Chunlin received him and asked Dela why he was here.
Dela was also very straightforward. He said directly that the De Family requested Sky Moon City hand over at least one Soul Mountain Range to the De Family and let the De Family be in charge of mining. Then, the orc mined would be split equally between the two families.
This was hilarious.
Sky Moon City could clearly take 100% of the ores, so why would they give half of them to your De Castle for no reason?
Don’t forget, Zhang Chunlin was a businessman.
Moreover, he was a merchant in the game.
Zhang Chunlin immediately realized that the De family was here to extort.
Once Sky Moon City agreed to the De Family and started this habit, there would still be seven noble families like the De Family in the Sea Conqueror Province!
At that time, what if all seven families came looking for him?
Could it be that he would have to give away eight mountain ranges?
Moreover, this was the Soul Mountain Range!
Zhang Chunlin knew that this was the mountain range that the entire Sky Moon City relied on to survive.
Therefore, Zhang Chunlin rejected Dela sternly.
However, he did not expect Dela to play dirty!
This guy was already Level 100, but he still came to snatch Level 40 monsters.
Who could beat him!
At this moment, in the face of Zhang Chunlin’s question, Dela replied with a smile, “Why? Can’t we kill the demon beasts here? They can’t snatch the monsters away because they’re not capable enough! All of you, disperse. Some people will go to the cast to snatch the monsters. If the people of the Blue Planet dare to attack, kill them all. We’re fighting back in self-defense!”
“You!
Zhang Chunlin was furious.
However, at this moment, a caravan happened to pass by.
It was already night time.
Lin Chen did not notice what was happening in the monster area. The caravan also directly entered Sky Moon City. After Lin Chen got out of the car, he no longer hid his identity and said to Winter, “Mr. Winter, the City Lord Manor is ahead. Please!”
“Ah… Should we inform Mr. City Lord?”
“I am the City Lord.”
As soon as Lin Chen finished speaking, he turned around and entered the City Lord Manor.
As soon as he entered, he bumped into Xiao Mei.
The rabbit-eared girl.
“City Lord, you’re finally back!”
When Xiao Mei saw Lin Chen, she leaned over and said, “Xiao Mei missed City Lord!”
This rabbit-eared girl was here again.
Lin Chen usually paid attention to staying far away from her.
It couldn’t be helped…
Because this rabbit-eared girl always liked to wear really revealing clothes.
It was too… tempting!
Lin Chen broke free from her without a trace and said, “We have a guest. Go back to your post!”
“Ah, are there guests?” Only then did Xiao Mei notice that there was a group of people standing outside the door.
Among them, a human loli was staring at her angrily.
Seeing this little girl’s gaze, Xiao Mei pursed her lips and smiled. Then, she puffed out her chest and smiled even more confidently.
On the other hand, Ling Xiaoya’s eyes actually dimmed a little at that moment…
“You… Are you really the City Lord of Sky Moon City?”
Winter, on the other hand, looked incredulous. He even smiled and said, “Haha, my luck is really too good!”
“Not necessarily, Mr. Winter. I haven’t agreed to your request yet.”
Lin Chen said half-jokingly, then said to Xiao Mei, “Help me call the Vice City Lord over.”
“Ah, Vice City Lord? City Lord, something happened outside the city just now. Someone caused trouble and didn’t let our residents kill monsters to level up. Vice City Lord has already brought people to deal with it,” Xiao Mei hurriedly replied.
“Someone’s causing trouble?”
Lin Chen frowned and asked, “Who is it?”
“It’s the Fourth Young Master of De Castle.”
Dela?”
At this moment, it was Winter who replied.
Lin Chen looked at him and asked, “Mr. Winter, do you know this person?”
“I do.”
Winter smiled and said, “He’s Marquis Demille’s fourth son. He graduated from the No. 3 Magic Academy in the Imperial Capital. In the past, when he was in the Imperial Capital, this Fourth Young Master had caused a lot of trouble… City Lord, how did you provoke him?”
“Demil, De Castle… De Family?”
Only then did Lin Chen remember that Gold Spear had once brought the De Family to Sky Moon City.
At that time, Gold Spear had brought them over with the intention of announcing to them that he wanted to officially acknowledge Sky Moon City’s status. In the end, it had only been a short while, and someone had already come to find trouble?
It seemed that not everyone would listen to Gold Spear, the provincial governor!
“Mr. Winter, please take a seat in the City Lord Manor. I’ll be back soon.”
Lin Chen’s expression turned cold.
Although he did not know why the other party was here to cause trouble, since he was here, then…
He definitely could not condone it!
Lin Chen planned to deal with this matter personally.
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately flapped his wings and planned to leave the city.
Ling Xiaoya still wanted to follow, but Lin Chen asked her to wait for him in the City Lord Manor.
Xiao Mei found an opportunity to approach him and even hugged Lin Chen. “City Lord, bring me along. I’ll lead the way for you!”
“Alright!”
Lin Chen was speechless.
He hadn’t seen Liu Mengyao since he returned.
However, when Lin Chen returned to Sky Moon City, he realized that there was actually still a signal on his phone in the city.
As soon as the signal came, Lin Chen saw the message Liu Mengyao had sent him.
It turned out that she and Bai Shuyi were already challenging the Trial Tower.
‘Then let’s hug this rabbit-eared girl!’
Lin Chen was also unwilling to suffer a loss. The rabbit-eared girl’s figure was so explosive, and she did not mind at all wherever he touched her. It was not until they arrived at the leveling area that Lin Chen put her down and said, “Stop panting. Lead the way.”
“City Lord, be careful. The other party has a Level 150 expert coming.”
Xiao Mei said coquettishly, “None of us are a match for that expert!”
Level 150?
Lin Chen frowned.
Was the De Family planning to use their power to suppress him?
