199: Edge of the main city
In an instant, Su Wei's forehead veins bulged, and his body trembled violently.
It was unclear what power was supporting him, but it prevented him from collapsing directly!
“Boom!” A powerful aura suddenly exploded, sweeping across the entire scene!
“Broke through to Beast Master?” Several prison guards exchanged glances, their eyes filled with only shock.
“I, Su Wei, will remember everything from today! When I get out, I will definitely make all of you pay the price!”
The young man proudly uttered this sentence, and then, no longer able to bear it, he fainted on the ground.
One hour later.
Regarding Su Wei's matter, the Warden and personnel from various departments held an emergency meeting.
Name: Su Wei
Age: 18
Relatives: None
Danger Level: High
“Severely injured seven people, transfer him to a high-level prison to stay for two days.”
The Warden put down the information in his hand and looked at the people present: “Does anyone have any objections?”
Everyone shook their heads.
A person with no backing who dared to commit such rampant acts as murder must bear the consequences.
The Warden nodded, about to finalize the matter.
The telephone next to him vibrated.
Glancing at the content on the telephone, the Warden's originally serious expression instantly changed.
He silently looked at the people around him: “Su Wei's matter… let's discuss it again, the meeting is adjourned.”
The people from the various departments were full of confusion.
The Warden had already gotten up and left the meeting room.
Leaving behind the people who were discussing animatedly.
His steps constantly quickening, the Warden who left the meeting room had his brows furrowed into a ' river' shape.
He had never thought that the dirty deeds he had done many years ago would be dug up now, and even sent to his telephone!
“Bang!” He abruptly pushed open his office.
Through the window where white light shone in, a figure in a Black Robe stood quietly in the most conspicuous spot.
“Who exactly are you? Why do you have those things?!”
In response to the Warden's questioning, the existence beneath the Black Robe emitted a slight electronic sound: “Release Su Wei today, eliminate all evidence of his crimes, do these things, and your dirty deeds will not be exposed, understand?”
A straightforward demand.
And the basis for this demand was none other than the Warden's dirt.
Clenching his fists, the Warden's thick black face only showed a chilling killing intent.
However, the other party held his fatal handle, and he was completely helpless!
“I can release Su Wei, but you must guarantee that my things will be eliminated, otherwise, I will make Su Wei die! You won't escape either!” In the end, the A Man chose to compromise.
“Don't worry, compared to carbon-based life forms like Humans, my credibility is absolute.”
Leaving this last sentence, Heavenly Machine brushed past the Warden and left directly.
As the other party left, the Warden heavily picked up the telephone on his desk.
Releasing Su Wei and eliminating the other party's criminal records would leave an obvious stain on him.
But the current situation was not the time to worry about this point.
However… just as he was about to dial the telephone to inform his subordinates to release Su Wei, the words of the Black Robe figure once again appeared behind him.
“Wait, I've changed my mind.”
“Hmm?” The Warden turned around.
The Black Robe person who should have left had returned at some point.
“Changed your mind? What do you mean?”
“No need to release Su Wei.” The Black Robe person said, then spoke up: “You send him to No. 1 Death Row Prison.”
“This…” The Warden couldn't understand this guy's thinking.
In No. 1 Death Row Prison, every prisoner is an absolute powerhouse. Locking up someone with delicate skin like Su Wei there, the consequences are not hard to imagine.
Wasn't this Black Robe person supposed to be saving Su Wei?
Why now was he pushing him into the abyss instead?
“Just do as I say, otherwise, those things of yours…”
The Warden's face darkened: “Understood.”
In fact, compared to releasing Su Wei, locking the other party in death row prison was something the Warden was actually more enthusiastic about.
After all, this way, not only would it not leave a stain on him, but it would also establish some authority for him.
Leaving the Warden's office, the Black Robe person walked all the way out of the prison and came to a small alley.
He took off the Black Robe.
What was revealed was not Heavenly Machine at all, but Ye Tian!
As soon as Heavenly Machine, the robot, left, Ye Tian appeared and took its place.
This gave the Warden no time to react, causing him not to have the slightest suspicion about Ye Tian's identity.
“Without experiencing wind and rain, how can you see the rainbow? Keep it up, Su Wei.”
Cold, shaking.
The fluorescent light on the ceiling was dazzling.
When Su Wei woke up again, he found himself in another prison room.
“Newcomer, awake?”
The rough and mocking voice of the one-eyed A Man poured into his ears, and a powerful aura was even displayed.
“Beast Taming Grandmaster!” Seeing the A Man in front of him, Su Wei's pupils constricted slightly.
It was also at this time that he looked around.
Every one of his other seven roommates was at least at the Beast Taming Grandmaster Realm!
This prison…
How did he end up here? Didn't Heavenly Machine tell him that he would be released soon without any criminal record?
It was precisely because he had received the message brought by Heavenly Machine from the prison guards earlier that he had the confidence to vent the anger in his heart so recklessly, beating down all seven of his roommate prisoners.
After all, they were all people who could leave.
But now…
“Since you're awake, come here and give me a leg massage.”
The one-eyed A Man leaned back on the bed and ordered Su Wei.
In his only remaining eye, a hint of aggression was revealed.
Looking at the people in front of him, Su Wei clenched his fists and remained silent.
He was no match for these guys, and he couldn't beat down the seven roommates like before.
“What? You can't hear me?” The one-eyed A Man's thick lips curled into a grin, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
The one-eyed A Man's lackeys around him all got up from their beds, surrounding Su Wei with sinister smiles on their faces.
At this moment, fear appeared in Su Wei's eyes.
… …
… …
The daytime passed quickly.
It was night.
Gu Yan tidied his simple combat uniform, slung an alloy long sword over his back, and walked towards the edge area of Sky Vault Main City.
The edge area is the most dangerous place in Sky Vault Main City, bar none!
Due to the enormous size of Sky Vault Main City and its slow flight, it faces various kinds of sky fierce beasts every day.
The edge area is the first to bear the brunt.
That is also the battlefield for all the hunting teams in the city!
It is precisely because of the defense line formed by Human Beast Masters that those flying fierce beasts in the edge area find it difficult to enter the city.
“Ding~ Host has spent 1000 points and successfully redeemed the Experience Upgrade Mode (One Day), current points: 3840 points.”
As a thousand points were deducted, a hint of seriousness also appeared in Gu Yan's eyes.
Experience Upgrade Mode.
Once this mode is activated through the System, as long as fierce beasts are hunted, strength can be improved along with experience points!
This method is far superior to the previous method of cultivating and improving oneself.
“I wonder if I can improve my strength further in these last few days.”
Before long.
Gu Yan arrived at the bright Hunting Hall, the task reception area.
There were many people coming and going, at least close to a thousand.
In the most prominent area of the hall, a large screen was placed, displaying rows of task lists.
[Official Release]: District 11 is encountering a large number of large-mouthed seagulls, urgent need for manpower, 800 currency/person/hour
[Official Release]: District 21 urgently needs scouts, contracted beasts with detection capabilities can accept this task, 1500 currency/person/hour
[Mr. Huang's Private Release]: Precious item lost in District 1, Beast Taming Grandmaster level Beast Masters can accept, 500,000/person, specific details to be discussed.
The Hunting Hall is both the place for publishing and receiving tasks and the only way to the edge area of Sky Vault Main City.
If no task is accepted.
To go to the edge area, a toll of 1000 currency is required.
Beast Masters who dare to come to this place are not short of money, and the officials of Sky Vault Main City can also earn a large sum in tolls.
There are a total of ten edge areas.
District 1, District 11, District 21, District 31…
Gu Yan glanced at the invasion level of sky fierce beasts in the major areas displayed on the screen.
The most severe, with the most fierce beasts, was District 1.
“The Host can go to the 71st District and try your luck.”
Ye Tian's voice interrupted Gu Yan's idea of going to District 1.
“71st District?” He glanced at the fierce beast situation on the screen.
This area is quite ordinary.
Although full of doubts, after a slight hesitation, Gu Yan still listened to the System and chose the 71st District.
At the same time, under the System's recommendation, he accepted a private task to go to the 71st District.
[Private Task]: Protect the employer's safety, minimum strength requirement Beast Master, starting at 200,000 currency.
When Gu Yan arrived at the area to meet with the employer, his expression was strange.
“Gu Yan? You accepted the task we posted?” The two stylish and beautiful women frowned simultaneously.
“It's quite a coincidence.” Gu Yan didn't expect his employers to be the sisters Duanmu Mingyue and Duanmu Shuangkui.
