Chapter 640 - : Golden Bloody Soul Saber (2/2)
They quickly left the roof and went to Golden Tooth Hall.
The door which had been sealed shut for nearly half a year was open once more.
Before they went inside, a dazzling, golden saber glare shone on them so brightly that they could not open their eyes.
They thought they saw a huge monster with a golden horn sitting on the throne that belonged to Golden Tooth’s gang leader. There were also a pair of wings formed of hell’s blood stuck to the ribs of the huge monster.
The powerful presence caused everyone’s breathing to freeze.
One person even took an instinctive step back. They drew their sabers and became on guard.
But once they recognized the person who held Golden Tooth Saber and was surrounded by the flames from hell, it was as if they were struck by lightning. Like mud dolls, they could not say a thing even after a long time had passed.
“M-M-Meng Chao?”
A saber fell to the floor with a loud clang.
…
“Ha!”
Phantom Bear Xiong Wei let out a loud roar. His knuckles let out loud cracking sounds. His palms were already as large as a bear’s paws, but in an instant, they grew even bigger, and there were even white flashes of electricity between his fingers.
With one palm strike, he struck a former Reaper Squad member’s chest and crushed the person’s motorized armor, along with his thorax. The Reaper’s entire chest caved in, and the great pressure from his thoracic cavity went straight up to his cranial cavity. His eyes popped out, and he died a swift death.
Xiong Wei summoned his strength again. The corpse weighed around 250kg because of the armor, but Xiong Wei managed to send it flying more than twenty meters away. With a loud bang, the body slammed into the door of the warehouse, pushing it open. The tactical resource warehouse only had its walls burned and was still in perfect condition.
Xiong Wei narrowed his eyes slightly and sucked in a deep breath. The unique and thick scent from precious materials put him in a good mood.
He looked around. The elite fighters from Black Bone had already cut up the last robber into pieces.
The fight had ended, and they gained complete victory. Everything inside now belonged to Black Bone and Phantom Bear Xiong Wei!
Xiong Wei casually cleaned off the blood on his body and said to the adviser of Black Bone, who was right next to him, “Same rules. Filter all the resources inside. Bring half of those that look to be in good condition back to Black Bone, and offer up the rest. Tell them that we saved them from the fire!”
“Understood.” The capable-looking adviser nodded. After hesitating for a moment, he braced himself and said, “But Mr. Xiong, we’ve already taken over five tactical resource warehouses and annexed three middle-sized and small gangs that were crippled by the enemy. Aren’t our acts of weakening Golden Tooth too blatant?”
“Hmm?” Xiong Wei scowled. “What did you say?”
His killing intent caused the adviser to break out in cold sweat. He gulped a few times before he finally found the courage to say, “I heard some rumors. The other gangs in the lair are criticizing our gang’s aggressive approach. They might do something in the dark to cause trouble to us, and it’ll be bad for Black Bone.”
“Cause trouble? Hahahaha!” Xiong Wei laughed. He used the palm that had just destroyed the former Reaper Squad member’s chest to slap the adviser’s shoulder. “Jin Wanhao is dead. The lair is currently without a leader, and everything is in chaos. Right now, the person who takes action first gains an advantage. The ones who get the most spoils of war and spread their territory the widest will be the one who sets and controls the new laws!
“No matter what, this is a world ruled by the law of the jungle. The small troubles will not affect the overall situation. Without Jin Wanhao, no one in the lair can fight against me!”
“Of course.” Balck Bone’s adviser winced because of the slap. He endured the pain and said, “Golden Tooth has suffered a major blow, and they’re done for, while Poison Scorpion’s power has never been able to compare to ours. The remaining middle-sized and small gangs are no cause for concern. You’re now the strongest person in the lair, so it’s only natural for you to lead the lair. But I’m worried about the forces from beyond the lair.
“If we act so aggressively, we’ll encroach upon the interests of the mega corporations that exist beyond the lair, whether we’re doing it intentionally or not. Mr. Xiong, will they be displeased by it?”
“You don’t understand, it’s precisely because the external forces might interfere with the situation in the lair that I have to make swift decisions and face the risk of biting more than I can chew by taking many resources and forces.”
Xiong Wei gave off a manic aura, but his eyes were as calm as crystals, showing that his train of thought was really clear. “The spirit energy magnetic field interference in the lair is still as bad as before. Our communications with the outside world haven’t recovered just yet, and most of the attention of the outside world is still trained on the pitched battle at the borders of Dragon City. No one there has the energy to interfere with the internal affairs of the lair.
“This is a rare window of opportunity, and it won’t last for long. We must get things set so firmly in stone that the outcome would be impossible to change once the dust outside settles.
“If Black Bone really takes control of most of the resources and power in the lair, thus becoming the strongest gang in the lair in one go which controls a few hundred thousand people’s livelihoods and businesses, even if the outside world is displeased with our methods, what will they be able to do? Would they attack the lair and destroy Black Bone, thus creating new chaos?
“That’s impossible. To Dragon City, the lair is like a toilet. It’s a dirty place filled with filth. The government only has one request for the lair, and that is to maintain order inside. We’re not supposed to cause new and greater chaos.
“At that time, we’ll offer up some of our profit, and we’ll ask them to destroy Golden Tooth! Once it’s gone, our profit will be enough for us to negotiate with the mega corporations!”
Black Bone’s adviser came to a realization. He stuck up his thumb and said with great admiration, “Amazing! Mr. Xiong, you’re amazing!”
At that moment, another Black Bone gang member climbed through the ruins and ran toward them.
“Mr. Xiong, Golden Tooth’s Song Jinbo asked you to meet with him at Golden Tooth’s headquarters!”
“Song Jinbo?” Xiong Wei’s face sank, and he scoffed. “He’s not even the new gang leader of Golden Tooth yet, and he’s putting up such airs? If he’s going to talk about the distribution of loot or the conflict between Black Bone and Golden Tooth, he should be coming to meet me at Black Bone’s headquarters!”
The Black Bone member said, “No. Aside from us, Song Jinbo also invited the leaders of the other gangs in the lair. Apparently, they’re going to officially announce Saber Jin Wanhao’s death.”
“What?” Xiong Wei’s anger turned to delight. He laughed. “Golden Tooth can’t hold on anymore and is going to admit defeat!”
