Report

Jiang-Nan headquarter city, one of the six headquarter cities in China, was extremely rich. In the main city area, there was a skyscraper that was 88 stories tall. On the wall of this skyscraper, there were two eye-catching English letters, 'HR'. Around the first floor of the skyscraper, there was a beautiful plaza as well as the largest fountain in Jiang-Nan headquarter city. Around the plaza, there were over a thousand soldiers patrolling, preventing outsiders from taking a single step inside.

The passersby that passed by all looked at this skyscraper with curiosity and envy.

In the entire Jiang-Nan city, most people have never entered it in their entire lives.

"BEEP!"

An electronic sound rang.

Immediately, the patrolling soldiers gave way, and a military off-road vehicle with "HR" printed on it drove in and stopped at the entrance of the skyscraper's lobby. Hua, the door opened, and three fully armed martial artists could be seen. They were either carrying a spear, a saber and a shield, or two large metal boxes on their backs.

"Sir, please enter" the doorman at the entrance of the skyscraper's lobby respectfully bowed.

These three fighters directly entered the skyscraper.

"Come, Luo Feng, let's go sit at the bar on the side and wait for the captain and the others" laughed Chen Gu.

"I haven't seen the captain yet, so I wonder what he looks like" laughed Luo Feng. At the same time, he carefully observed this HR alliance market. This is the underground alliance formed by the super families and financial groups of the world. As their headquarters in Jiang-Nan headquarter city, the entire skyscraper was extremely luxurious.

The lobby's floor was so shiny that one could see one's reflection. Even some of the simple decorations were extraordinary.

The waiters in the lobby, the men were handsome and the women were alluring. Every single one of them had a refreshing smile on their faces.

Luo Feng, Chen Gu, and another team member, 'Zhang Ke', all sat on the sofa.

"Gentlemen, what would you like to drink?" the waitress slightly bowed and smiled as she asked.

"Tie Guanyin!"

"Pu 'er tea, with a bit of jasmine flavor!"

Cannon Chen Gu and Zhang Ke, these two experienced fighters, directly spoke. Luo Feng was a bit shocked when he heard this. In the Dojo of Limits, these two often drank. Zhang Ke, who had a pair of muscular arms like that of a gibbon, laughed: "Luo Feng, you can't be careless in the wilderness, so you can't drink"

Luo Feng realized, right, you can't be careless in the wilderness, how can you drink right now?

"Give me a cup of Pu 'er too." Luo Feng smiled.

The quiet sound of music reverberated in the hall. It was a song played by a flute. As for what song it was, with his taste, he could not recognize it at all. However, the sound of the flute was sometimes melodious and soothing, and sometimes it was fast and light, making one's soul feel much more refreshed.

"Luo Feng, the 1st floor is where the guests rest. Going up from the second floor is where we sell items in the mall. "Chen Gu smiled," This is the Underground Alliance Mall. Usually, it was cheaper than the full price of the items in the Home of Limits online store. Of course, it's higher than our half-price. "

Luo Feng nodded. Half price, that's for the members of the Dojo of Limits.

"The biggest advantage of the Underground Alliance Mall is that … we can sell some of the monster body parts that we kill to them at a high price." Chen Gu explained, "If we sell the monster body parts to the dojo, then we will sell it to them. The price is relatively low, but the dojo will give us contribution points. If he sold it to the Underground Alliance Market, the price would be high but he wouldn't get any contribution points. Naturally, it's up to you to choose "

Luo Feng smiled. He already knew about this after reading a few posts on the fighter discussion boards.

Selling it to the dojo gives you contribution points and money.

Selling it to the Underground Alliance only gives you money, but the price is high.

"Brother Wang, you've been up for half the night, go rest. Leave this to me " A clear and gentle voice rang. Luo Feng, who was holding a cup of tea, suddenly turned his head as if he was shocked by electricity.

What he saw was a young girl wearing a white shirt and a black suit changing shifts with another manager.

In this bar, there were a total of 12 waiters and one manager. It's open 24 hours a day and changes shifts every eight hours, with three shifts.

"Xu Xin?" Luo Feng looked in disbelief at the female manager behind the bar. She looked like a professional woman, and her actions were naturally noble. To be able to become the manager of the bar in the Underground Alliance Mall, she definitely isn't a position that just anyone can enter. This is a place specially made to serve fighters!

Even a regular waiter would have to graduate from a famous university and go through many training courses, not to mention a bar manager.

"Xu Xin, she ….."

That simple high school girl from before, how did she suddenly become so different?

"Brother Chen, brother Zhang, I'll go over for a bit" Luo Feng's bag, shield, and blade were all placed on the sofa, and he smiled as he stood up and walked towards the bar.

In the bar.

Xu Xin lowered her head and checked the drinks and other supplies in the bar. Suddenly — —

"Xu Xin" a familiar voice rang.

"Hm?" Xu Xin was shocked. In the lobby of the first floor, people who knew her real name usually called her 'Manager Xu', and ordinary martial artists didn't know her name. How could someone call her 'Xu Xin'? Moreover, this voice was so familiar. Xu Xin raised her head — —

At this time, Luo Feng lowered his head and looked inside the bar. Xu Xin, who was half squatting while checking the drinks, raised her head.

The two's gazes met.

At this time, Luo Feng and Xu Xin both had a sudden feeling, and their hearts started to throb.

"Luo Feng, why are you here?" Xu Xin reacted and stood up as she smiled.

"Even you, Xu Xin, can be a manager here, so why can't I be here?" Luo Feng smiled as he said. As he looked at the young girl in front of him, Luo Feng couldn't help but to think back to when he was in high school. He sat in the back of the classroom and silently stared at Xu Xin's back ….. he had a crush on her for a long time, but he never had the chance to say it.

He thought that it would be hard for him to see Xu Xin again, but who would've thought that he would see her in the HR alliance market. And he saw Xu Xin before he went to the wilderness for the first time.

"Ah, Luo Feng, you're a fighter now?" Xu Xin saw Luo Feng's appearance and couldn't help but to be surprised.

"Yea, I'm going to the wilderness soon" laughed Luo Feng.

"Wilderness?" Xu Xin's face slightly changed.

In the entire world, other than headquarter cities, all areas are called the wilderness. To the humans living in headquarter cities, the wilderness is another name for death. That place is filled with all sorts of monsters. Some are sinister, some are powerful, and some are almost invincible.

In those kinds of places, only the strongest 'fighters' can go there and fight against the monsters.

Xu Xin didn't think ….. that Luo Feng was a fighter, and that he was about to enter the wilderness.

To be honest, Xu Xin knows that Luo Feng likes her a bit ….. but there's no way to hide this. Luo Feng often sneaks glances at people's backs during class. Xu Xin occasionally turns around and sees Luo Feng staring at her. Naturally, Xu Xin understands Luo Feng's thoughts.

It's just that neither of them pointed it out.

"Luo Feng, the captain's here, come over" yelled Chen Gu.

"I'm going" said Luo Feng to Xu Xin.

"Okay" nodded Xu Xin.

Luo Feng walked back to his original position. At this time, three more people came. Two of them looked very similar, obviously twins. Both of them had a shield and a scimitar on their backs. And the third person had an incomparably sturdy body. On his back were two black hammers that had specks of silver.

"Luo Feng, these two are the famous' Twin Moon Scimitar 'Wei Jia brothers, Wei Tie and Wei Qing" laughed Chen Gu.

The Wei Jia brothers nodded towards Luo Feng, took off their shields and scimitars, and sat down.

"Brother Tie, brother Qing" smiled Luo Feng as he greeted.

The other members of the fire hammer squad were all quite a bit older than Luo Feng, at least 10 years older. Compared to the other five, Luo Feng was indeed a little brother.

"This, is the captain of our fire hammer squad, 'Twin Wind Hammer' Gao Feng" said Chen Gu. Luo Feng couldn't help but to carefully look at the captain, 'Gao Feng'. Gao Feng wasn't too tall, only around 1.8 meters. The most special thing about him was that his body was way too sturdy, as if he was made out of steel.

Gao Feng grinned, and the muscles on his face were like rocks: "Luo Feng, you also use blades. When you enter the wilderness, learn from Wei Tie and Wei Qing. You're quite talented, so I'm sure you'll quickly become a member of our squad "

"Okay" nodded Luo Feng.

No matter what, his number one goal right now is not to become a burden to this elite warlord squad.

"Rest for a bit, we'll head out soon" said Gao Feng.

"Yes, captain"

Including Luo Feng, the other five nodded.

After just 20 minutes, Gao Feng and the others, who finished their tea, stood up: "Let's go, to the wilderness" Luo Feng immediately put his ghost blade, shield, and other items on his back.

"Luo Feng" a voice rang.

Luo Feng turned his head.

Xu Xin's chest was slightly moving up and down. She didn't know why, but when she thought about how Luo Feng was about to enter the dangerous wilderness, Xu Xin panicked a bit. Maybe Xu Xin had a special feeling towards this boy who had a crush on her in high school.

"Hm?" Luo Feng looked at Xu Xin.

"I'll be starting school in a few days, but during college, I'll be the manager here on Saturdays and Sundays" yelled Xu Xin, "You have to come when that time comes" after yelling this, Xu Xin's face was a bit red.

"Okay, I'll definitely come"

Luo Feng let out a smile.

"You got her so quickly, impressive" laughed Chen Gu who was on the side as he patted Luo Feng's shoulder.

"This is the benefit of being young, all the beauties are throwing themselves at you" laughed Gao Feng who was on the side. Since they decided to let Luo Feng join the fire hammer squad, they naturally treated Luo Feng as a brother.

Luo Feng only laughed.

"Let's go"

"Get on the car!"

The six members of the fire hammer squad got on the HR alliance's private car and headed towards the train station. They rode the train out of the headquarter city towards the wilderness.
