Chapter 399 The White Monkey (1/2)

Outside of the Jinsha Region was what had once been the Jinsha Kingdom before the Cataclysm, because there was a prominent desert in the Jinsha Region—the Golden Sea Desert.

The sea of sand in the Golden Sea Desert was rated as a fabulous place to go. The golden sand was soft, fine, and smooth, as if it was made out of gold.

The Golden Sea Desert occupied close to a third of the Jinsha Region. Moreover, tourism was one of the flourishing industry here.

However, after the Cataclysm, the number of tourists had decreased gradually. On the other hand, there were more and more monster trainers and monster hunter groups who came by to explore the Golden Sea Desert.

According to the information received, there were three main clans in the Jinsha Region—the official force that represented the allied government, the sacred Lotian religion, and the Golden Hands.

Among the three of them, the official force and sacred Lotian religion were the closest. Many of them in the official force were either pseudo-believers or true believers of the sacred Lotian religion. However, there were plenty of fanatic believers. Those fanatic believers weren't allowed to become official personnel. The difference between the true and fanatic believers was that they would produce different results in handling given tasks.

Compared to the Lotian followers, the reputation and scale of the Golden Hands were weaker. After the Cataclysm, especially under the sacred Lotian religion's suppression, the Golden Hands had suffered difficulties in expanding their clan.

Although strange laws had prohibited them from completely eliminating the Golden Hands, there would definitely be plenty of petty games being played under the table. Due to the suppression faced in the local areas, the Golden Hands were wretched. Therefore, they started to spread fire throughout nearby areas.

They had stirred up innumerable issues in the areas nearby, which raised hatred for them. The Golden Hands were known to have a few smaller strongholds, however, their main strongholds were hidden in the dark.

”But how did they manage to hide from everyone? There's no way they could hide from everyone underground. It's not like they were only a multi-level marketing team with dozens of people.”

According to the information, there had once been people who found numerous suspicious individuals with strange pasts living in Harrington Town. Furthermore, after an in-depth investigation done by a spy, something was found to be wrong with the whole town. The town could possibly have been an important division of the Golden Hands.

Of course, not everyone in the town was a part of the Golden Hands. There were normal civilians living there. The members of the Golden Hands had infiltrated and mixed with the civilians. Through this way, they could prevent other forces from attacking them with large weapons.

Gao Peng took out a detailed hardcover world map from Silly's bag. He flipped the pages and compared his current location with Harrington Town's location carefully.

”This should be it…” Gao Peng came out with an answer in his mind.

”Gao Peng. Are we going to kill everyone in the town? I think I, Goldie, alone will be enough,” said Goldie in a savage way while popping up its head.

”Huh…” Gao Peng's expression went dull.

”Why are you being so cruel?” Gao Peng patted Goldies' feet. ”There are innocent civilians there. Please don't say anything like that ever again.”

”Oh…” Goldie nodded.

”We only need to separate the members of the Golden Hands from the innocent civilians.” Gao Peng was trying to teach the familiars about his philosophy.

”An eye for an eye” will always be the way we, the Gao family, handle tasks.

The familiars were listening attentively to Gao Peng's talk, like little kids sitting next to each other, while eating apples. Gao Peng was growing more excited as he talked.

Da Zi, which laid in the front row, moved hundreds of its small claws unsettlingly. ”Here comes Gao Peng with his signature skill again…”

A town with white-roofed houses suddenly appeared at the edge of the horizon.

”Gao Peng, there are houses in front of us,” Flamy immediately reminded Gao Peng.

”At last, there are other people here.” Gao Peng closed his mouth sadly. He cleared his throat and tried to recall the desert language he had learned in the past.

The people in the Jinsha Region and the Golden Sand Region communicated in Desert Language. Gao Peng was good in academics and possessed strong memory skills. He had also learned a few foreign languages on his own.

As they approached the town, Gao Peng found that the town was empty. There were ”scars” on the white walls and also moss growing there due to the humidity.
