Chapter 852 Hidden Sec (1/2)

Just as Tan Lang expected, the deputy governor Lu Wen visited Lin Huang and the rest early the next morning. He invited them to the government residence.

Naturally, they did not decline the request since that was their intention. They then followed Lu Wen and the two guards in silver armor into the monster car.

The monster car appeared to be the size of a horse carriage from the outside, so theoretically, it would be a little crowded carrying four adults.

Lin Huang and the gang hesitated a little when they were getting in. After all, there were ten of them in the group. Together with Lu Wen and the other two, that would make a total of 13 of them. It would be too small for all of them to squeeze into even if they were to stand. However, they went in anyway upon seeing Lu Wen waving at them from the car.

As soon as they stepped into the monster car, they realized that the interior of the monster car was a rather s.p.a.cious guest lounge.

Lu Wen poured some tea for them and began to chat while smiling.

Lin Huang and the gang learned about the rough situation going on in the city from him.

The city's authority body was called the government residence. It was similar to the Union Government outside, which was the proper, official organization of this world.

The city was run by a governor and his two deputies. The three of them were picked among the most compelling powerhouses in the entire city.

Apart from the governor and the deputy governors, there was another inst.i.tution called the elder inst.i.tution which was made of 12 powerhouses.

The elder inst.i.tution was responsible for making decisions about a variety of meetings and they shared the same voting power as the governor and the deputy governors.

One could say that the development of the entire city was set and guided by the governor, the deputy governors, and the elder inst.i.tution.

Apart from that, there were also immortal guards responsible for protecting the city.

The qualification to be an immortal guard was rather low as one could enroll themselves as long as they had holy fire-level combat strength. The entry a.s.sessment was very simple; more than 95% of holy fire-level powerhouses could pa.s.s. Only a minority of them who had zero battle experience would be disqualified.

Naturally, that was just the requirement for ordinary immortal guards.

There was an independent legion among the immortal guards called the honorary immortal guards that specially took immortal-level powerhouses in. It was said that they would only be eligible to join if they brought back three immortal-level demons that they had killed themselves.

The two guards wearing silver armor who had come to the inn with the deputy governor were the two captains of the honorary immortal guard. The duo had a high immortal-level combat strength. Judging from their aura, they were not much weaker than the deputy governor.

The monster car was driven by a humongous deer beast. Although the deer beast had no wings, it could leap into the air and fly. Despite carrying more than ten people in the carriage, it seemed to feel no weight and its feet seemed to move as light as a feather.

In less than three minutes, Lin Huang and the gang arrived at the entrance of the government residence in the monster car.

As soon as the monster car stopped, Lu Wen guided them into the government residence. The two immortal guards in silver armor stopped following them and stayed at the entrance.

Lu Wen led them into the meeting room and got someone to serve them tea.

”Please wait for a moment. The governor will be here soon.”

Not long later, a tall, middle-aged man walked towards them just when the tea was done being served.

The man had a similar height with Shen Tao, which was over 1.9 meters, but he was much more muscular. Even his aura was alike; he was on his way to break through to imperial-level.

Lin Huang and the rest knew who he was without guessing as soon as he opened the door.

The man chuckled happily and introduced himself, ”I'm Zhou Yun Long. Welcome to all of you!”

”This is our governor,” Lu Wen stood up and added.

Lin Huang and the rest stood up to greet him.

After some light banter, Zhou Yun Long sat in the main seat while the rest remained where they were sitting.

”I realized that all of you have extraordinary abilities. I wonder where you're from.” Zhou Yun Long went straight to the subject in an instant.

Tan Lang grinned as all of them had discussed what they were going to say yesterday.
