Very quickly, Li Xiang's question was answered.
They had just gotten off the Floating Ship when they saw a shocking scene.
In the town, a drunkard covered in filth stumbled as a child sped past and stabbed him in the stomach. There was no scream, no commotion. The passersby acted as if they did not see it and continued on their way.
The child's clothes were tattered, but the excitement on his face could not be concealed. He snatched the drunkard's remaining few coins and half a bottle of hard liquor. When he noticed Li Xiang and the other's line of sight, he immediately glared at them and made a gesture of protecting his food. However, when he saw their clothes and badges clearly, his expression changed abruptly. He lowered his head and quickly disappeared into the corner of the alley.
There were a few older youths waiting for him there.
This was the most common scene in a border city.
It was not an exaggeration to call it a man-eating hell.
The situation of a multipolar town was especially obvious here. Rats had their ways of living, cunning rabbits had their burrows, and lions had their pride.
The construction of the town was the same, clearly separated.
The two of them wore Lighthouse Academy uniforms, and more importantly, they had badges certified by the Magic Association. No one dared to have any ideas about them.
To survive in a place like this, one's vision was more important than their abilities.
The two of them walked on the street that was filled with the faint smell of blood. Li Xiang was dragging the heavy sack. Along the way, many people looked at them curiously. They were curious about what was inside that could actually make such a deep mark. However, when they saw the border force's heavy truck parked at the end of the road, they immediately withdrew their heads.
The border troops and the army were the only two defensive forces in the border city. They could offend anyone, but they definitely could not offend this group of warriors who risked their lives.
Targeting their guests was equivalent to making an enemy of the entire city. Other than a few terrifying factions, no one would have such guts.
Four fully armed warriors surrounded the heavy truck. They all wore dark gray uniforms and held old-style Origin Substance submachine guns in their hands. There were many scars on their faces, and they were full of iron and blood. They were completely different from the army soldiers Li Xiang had seen on the continent.
With the same combat strength, one of these warriors could take on at least ten army soldiers.
A bald warrior jumped down from the truck. With a silly smile on his face, he waved his hand at the two men and ordered his men to take the sack from Li Xiang's hand.
"Miss Villette, it's an honor to see you again. The general was very satisfied with the goods from last time. I heard that the group of rich second-generation heirs were not willing to provide them and even threw a fit for a while. Fortunately, you brought new goods." The bald warrior's voice was as loud as thunder. He was only a staff sergeant, but the pressure he gave Li Xiang was even greater than that of Major Mo Hai.
"This is my junior, Li Xiang. He's a member of the Polar night Serpent Machinery Department. All the goods this time were made by him." Villette waved the Blood Clan in her hand. The new design made the bald warrior's eyes light up. Even the way he looked at Li Xiang was a little different.
He welcomed the two into the truck. Suddenly, he glanced at a few shifty-looking people in the alley. The four warriors immediately opened fire. A few beams of light shot out, and blood splattered on the spot.
"Watch your eyes, or get out of the first city." The bald warrior snorted coldly. Then, he put on a smile and walked into the truck.
The truck started, and the bald warrior laughed loudly again. "Sorry to have made a fool of myself in front of Brother Li Xiang. This is how the border cities are. There are always people who are muddle-headed every day. We have to beat them up."
Li Xiang smiled faintly and did not reply.
The journey was not long, but it was still a ten-minute drive. During this free time, the bald warrior asked about Li Xiang's preferences. It was as if he wanted to hold a banquet to welcome him. His words were also very respectful. It was not as difficult to talk to as he had expected.
People who dealt with mutants all year round would always have a smell on them. Others might not be able to smell it, but Li Xiang was very sensitive to it. In particular, the dark red scale bar in his body that had been silent for a long time showed signs of loosening!
This kind of warrior followed the principle of killing and respected strength, but he was very respectful of him.
Villette seemed to have seen through his doubts. She smiled and explained, "You don't have to be so suspicious. This big bald guy is very straightforward. Most people in the border army are like that. They don't like to beat around the bush. His attitude is good to you because, first, you are from the Polar night. The highest leader at the border is your principal, the Lord of the Polar night. Second, you are a quasi-mechanic and a supplier. You are their bread and butter. How can they not be good to you? "
The bald warrior smiled foolishly and kept nodding.
"Miss Villette is still the right person. The goods that the rich kids gave me the last few times were not bad, but their tempers were too bad. They came to our border and even had to treat us like lords. I can't take it. A few of them even killed the general's concubines. When the general came back, he was very angry. Luckily, they graduated. Otherwise, the general might have gone to your school. "
Speaking of this matter, Villette's chatterbox also opened up. The two of them chattered non-stop, not minding Li Xiang's presence at all.
He was very familiar with the way these rich kids acted. They were indeed completely different from the Border Wind. However, he heard more about the general from their conversation, which made him curious. He could not help but ask.
"Uh, this …" The straightforward bald warrior did not reply for the first time. He touched his big bald head in fear and looked at Villette for help.
Villette's expression was also strange. After a long time, she said, "Well, you will see the general when you go to the border base. If she is there."
Hearing her strange tone, Li Xiang finally felt that something was wrong. He immediately asked.
"In the border area of City 0010, there are a total of ten towns. They are named from 1 to 10. There are only two owners. One is the brigadier general of the border army, which is the general we are talking about, Andrea. The other is the chief commander of the army stationed here, a middle-aged expert of the Bai family, Bai Ya. Oh, that Bai Ya is from the sixteenth branch family." Villette had naturally investigated Li Xiang and knew that he had a lot of grievances with the sixteenth branch family.
"The sixteenth branch family?" Li Xiang frowned. This was the branch of the Bai family that he was most unwilling to come into contact with. Bai Yunfei had died at his hands, Fei Yujing had an unclear relationship with him, and Bai Jiaqi and Bai Mumu were also from that branch. There were too many entanglements, and they were both hostile and kind to him.
However, the sixteenth ancestor definitely did not like him.
"Yes, but you don't have to worry. Being sent to the border is equivalent to being abandoned by the Bai family. Bai Ya rarely calls himself a member of the Bai family, and there is a more important reason. In fact, at the border, only the general's words are ironclad." Villette nodded and looked at the bald warrior.
The bald warrior chuckled. "Of course. The hundred thousand soldiers at the border only listen to the general's orders. Not to mention Bai Ya, even if the White King himself came, no one would dare to disobey the general."
Li Xiang was horrified. Just what kind of person could make this group of warriors follow them to death?
Andrea. He felt that this name was somewhat familiar.
"What is the general's full name? Is it convenient for you to tell me?" Li Xiang asked. A brigadier general of the army, as high as Xiao, had to be a player. Listening to their discussion, she did not seem to be very old.
"Andrea Gamma. What's wrong?" Villette looked at him. This name was something that she had asked for a long time before asking.
Gamma.
Li Xiang counted with his wrench. Damn, her rank was even higher than Hesteria's.
