175: Chapter 174 The Material Taker

Gu Han was genuinely a bit worried about the psychological state of this Tang Family Genius.

Seeing that the two of them were securely bound, the Black-vested Man let out a cold snort, ignored Tang Wuying, and sat down cross-legged right where he was.

He closed his eyes, his consciousness clearly sinking into his Divine Kingdom.

Seeing this, Tang Wuying raised his head and burst into a wild, uninhibited laugh.

Laughing as he was, he paused for a moment, and shortly after, suddenly turned his head to ask Gu Han with a blank expression.

"Why won't you let me in? I want to see the grass chicken! I'm begging you!"

Gu Han rolled his eyes and couldn't help but curse fiercely.

"See my ass! Stay put! What the hell were you laughing at just now, you pig, if I had known, I would have let you be taken back to have your kidneys cut out!"

Tang Wuying grew anxious, his body twisting back and forth against the tree trunk.

"My Divine Kingdom has all kinds of Goblins, I can get them all over to you, it's fine even if you just record a video for me!"

Gu Han shook his head.

This guy was truly hopeless.

"You'd better hurry up and figure out how to untie the rope, don't slack off."

Gu Han closed his eyes slightly, his consciousness instantly sinking down to enter his own Divine Kingdom.

At the edge of the Divine Kingdom, a Divine Kingdom passage unfolded across the horizon.

The consciousness of the Black-vested Man had already descended, possessing the body of a huge Lizardman.

This Lizardman exuded a terrifying Aura, shockingly a Level 7 Transcendental creature.

Behind it followed a whole squad of Red-skinned Lizardmen, also of Level 6 and 7, swimming continuously through the sea toward the inland.

Suspended in mid-air, Gu Han looked at this array and felt a sudden realization in his heart.

"A Level 7 Demigod, no wonder his Physique in reality is so freakish."

The Lizardman possessed by that man was also utterly dazed upon first arriving in the Divine Kingdom; the coastline was completely blocked by a row of sky-supporting strange trees.

Huge dark shadows swam past in the sea from time to time; if not for Gu Han appearing in mid-air, he would have suspected whether he had been scammed.

He roared up to the sky, preparing to order full effort to swim ashore and sweep through his Divine Kingdom.

Gu Han didn't bother playing fair with him at all.

With a thought, [Forced Breeding] directly locked onto that aggressive squad of Red-skinned Lizardmen below.

The moment the skill was activated.

The actions of the previously bloodthirsty and Killing Intent-filled Red-skinned Lizardmen simultaneously froze.

Immediately following, their eyes instantly turned crimson, their sanity completely overwhelmed by primitive impulses, and they all lunged at each other.

The white light was late, but it arrived all the same.

"What the hell kind of ghost skill is this?!"

That person's consciousness struggled wildly inside the Lizardman's body, but completely failed to control this vessel, nor could he exit this Divine Kingdom.

Gu Han didn't stay put, directly mobilizing all Ant-men combat power.

The Ant-men army poured into the opponent's Divine Kingdom passage like a tidal wave, directly flattening them in reverse.

This person's Divine Kingdom was not big, spanning only seven thousand square kilometers.

Inside the Divine Kingdom, besides some Lizardman residences, there were almost no decent divine buildings, and divine plants were also scarce.

"This guy is truly poor, what kind of nonsense is planted all over this Divine Kingdom?!"

Gu Han manipulated the Ant-men army to clear out everything, not even sparing the underground.

Finally, he extracted nearly seven thousand square kilometers of divine source.

Gu Han directly took away the core and wasn't in a hurry to kill him.

"I never expected that I would still fall! I admit it, use whatever tricks you have!"

Without a word, Gu Han directly arranged that disgusting set of meals previously used to deal with the Cyst Demon demigod.

Unexpectedly, this person didn't make a peep.

This was the first time seeing this, and Gu Han felt a bit puzzled.

"Aren't you afraid?"

The person in the white light sneered.

"I am a person who has lived soaking in a stinking ditch for several months, with bugs crawling into eyes; your little tricks amount to nothing in our park."

Faced with Gu Han's continuous questioning, that person pondered for a long time before finally saying, "Give me a quick end, and I'll tell you."

Gu Han nodded in agreement.

"My name is Dakan, and I am from the 'Fishing Ground Park' under Commander Ang Tai of Mianyin. I am specifically responsible for material running."

"Material running?"

"It's transporting divine piglets over from the mainland."

It seemed the underlying logic of the world's operation was roughly the same; human traffickers existed everywhere, only now they were divine traffickers.

"The higher-ups had long set their sights on Old Granny's account, thinking there was fat to be squeezed, but since Abyss Company had never sold your information, the higher-ups let the fishing ground set the bait, and we were responsible for the hands-on work."

Gu Han frowned.

Sure enough, Abyss Arena could still obtain his true identity through certain means; perhaps it hadn't been sold yet simply because he owed them money, or perhaps he wasn't qualified enough yet.

"After someone retrieved the transcendent crystal, we tracked Tang Wuying. After reporting it, the higher-ups attached some importance to it and ordered us to mobilize some connections to get our hands on Tang Wuying."

"Why?"

Dakan snorted coldly, "Tang Wuying's skill is a bit different, and the Tang Family has secretly been helping another faction run materials. The fishing ground is preparing to use Tang Wuying to trap the Tang Family and force them to submit."

Hearing this, Gu Han felt a bit chilled in his heart, instantly discovering the crucial point and even feeling some lingering fear; fortunately, he had trapped Tang Wuying himself.

The Tang Family actually participated in such underhand dealings as well.

"Doesn't the mainland care?" Gu Han asked.

Dakan laughed loudly, "Can they possibly manage all of it? They couldn't manage it before, and with Divine Kingdoms now, they can manage it even less. As long as you have money to pave the way, quite a few of your own people scramble to cover for us."

Gu Han forcefully suppressed the shock in his heart.

"What do you capture Divine Lords over there to do? Cut out kidneys?"

"Cutting out kidneys is currently not as good as using the rear end to smuggle goods; harvesting divine sources and the Power Of Faith, Transcendental Believers—all of these can be exchanged for money, we all came over this way."

It was roughly similar to what Gu Han had thought; wherever there is buying and selling, there is a market, and Divine Lords were no exception. No wonder this Level 7 Demigod's Divine Kingdom was so poor.

"You commoner Divine Lords are nothing more than materials kept in captivity by the high-ups, yet you still foolishly risk your lives for those higher-ups. Your own people are the most vicious when it comes to scamming your own kind."

"Your skill is quite strong; I heard you can also crossbreed divine plants? Why not follow Commander Ang Tai and work for him? Being a cook lets you live the high life with good food and drink, having money makes you a real boss, and there are plenty of the Commander's subordinates in the mainland."

"We also throw massive amounts of Transcendental Believers into divine buildings to make transcendent crystal ore seeds. Then, through the time flow rate of the Divine Kingdom, we force-grow transcendent crystal mines and sell them back to you..."

Dakan was still talking to himself in the white light, chattering away disconnectedly.

Gu Han directly shattered his core, muttering to himself, "I will see this world clearly myself, no need for your nagging."

He had already heard the answers he wanted. As for those bewitchments and instigations, even if some were facts, they could not shake his principles.

Life is a personal experience of one's own; thoughts should not be dominated by other people's words.

Since the development of the Divine Kingdom era up to now, many places abroad had become very free, and wars were happening every moment.

In this high-martial world, the strong being able to provide a safe environment for the weak, and even more so giving space for growth, was in itself a kind of mercy.

Greed would always breed borers and scum within a collective; this was something that couldn't be completely eliminated.

Commander Ang Tai of Mianyin and Abyss Company were not opponents Gu Han could take on head-on at the present stage, but he silently noted them down.

This Dakan had to die; he was the biggest threat right now.

Judging by his predicament of still having to be harvested for divine sources and being dirt poor, he was just a bottom-feeder, so there was no need to fear that his death would invite any greater disaster.

Anyway, Tang Wuying was already dragged into this, so they might as well let things run their course and have the Tang Family slowly hold them in check for him.

Abyss Company's strength was currently unclear, but it was definitely not small. He belonged to an insignificant role; as long as he didn't jump around too much, he wouldn't be targeted yet.

Gu Han thought about a lot of things for a moment, and directly exited the Divine Kingdom. Right now, he had to think of a way to get away as soon as possible.
