2012

Rank's workshop looks like our roadside hardware store, with all kinds of tools, hammers, wrenches, knives, and the like, all of them.

Everyone is queuing.

"Why is there a queue here?" the eldest cousin asked curiously.

"Because Ranke doesn't like people who don't follow the rules, standing in line is Ranke's rule. Frankie said.

"What if you don't line up? The eldest cousin said.

"Rank, one of the seventeen ghost generals. Frankie said.

"Ah, Seventeen Ghost Generals, why is he here?" the eldest cousin asked in surprise.

"He is responsible for creating the badges, and he is making and selling the badges of the entire City of Fear, and all the income is for the ghost king. Frankie said.

"It turns out that it's still the official background!" the eldest cousin suddenly realized.

"Ranke has a very terrifying skill, he has a very good memory, as long as he meets someone, he will remember, not only remember the appearance of the person, but also remember when the person was seen, in the entire city of fear, there is no one that Ranke does not know, except for you living people. Frankie said.

"Oh?" Xu Taiping, who heard this, was slightly surprised, he thought that only he had the ability to never forget, but he didn't expect that there was a person here.

"If you live safely in the City of Dread for three years, you can get the Demon Badge, and if you come to Ranke in three years, Ranke will definitely recognize you and remember exactly when he saw you, and then he will be able to determine if you have been in the City of Fear for three years. Frankie said.

"So, if someone comes and gets the Skull Badge, leaves the City of Fear, and comes back after three years, will they be able to get the Demon Badge as well?" asked the eldest cousin.

"Yes, but it doesn't make sense, although the Demon Badge will make many people jealous of you, but there are just as many people who like to hunt down the ghost pawns who wear the Demon Leader, this badge will not give you privileges in the City of Fear, but may make you a target for others, so few people will do this. Frankie said.

"I see!" the eldest cousin suddenly realized.

A few people lined up and walked forward little by little.

Soon it was everyone's turn.

Xu Taiping met Ranke for the first time.

This is an old man about sixty years old, very short, only one meter five, but his hands and feet are very thick, giving people the first feeling of being like a dwarf in a fantasy novel, and this Rank's beard is very long, and the beard on his chin is combed into a cross shape, which looks more like a dwarf.

"I haven't seen you. Ranke sat behind a table and looked at Xu Taiping and the others and said.

Xu Taiping saw that Ranke had a badge on his chest with a number on it.

Fifteen!

This Ranke is the fifteenth in the ghost general.

Xu Taiping felt a strong coercion from his body, and if he roughly estimated, this person was at least a heaven-level master, as for how many heaven-level he was, he could only know after handing over it.

"We have five skull badges. Xu Taiping said.

"Five, 50,000 yuan. Ranke said.

"A 10,000?!" the eldest cousin asked in surprise.

Ranke glanced at his eldest cousin and didn't say anything.

"Give the money. Frankie said.

"Okay!" Xu Taiping nodded, and then, the eldest cousin who was in charge of the box opened the box, took out five stacks of banknotes and handed them to Rank.

Ranke tossed the five skull badges onto the table and said, "Have fun in the City of Fear." Next. ”

Xu Taiping picked up the five skull badges, walked aside, and then handed out the badges to everyone.

"Hua Ze, what are you going to do next?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Go into the Third Ring Road and find the people who came a few days ago. Duanmu Huaze said.

"If you're alone, I'm afraid you'll be in danger. Xu Taiping said, looked at Frankie and said, "Can you help my friend find a few bodyguards? Preferably at the level of ghost soldiers." ”

"As long as the price is right, there is no problem at all, if you are a ghost soldier, a ghost soldier will be used as a bodyguard, and the normal daily use is 100,000, depending on how many you are looking for." Frankie said.

"Director Xu, you don't need to find a bodyguard for me, I've changed my appearance, and those people don't necessarily know me, if you bring a bodyguard, it's too ostentatious, but it's not good. Duanmu Huaze said.

"That's right. Xu Taiping nodded, and then said, "Since that's the case, then you can go by yourself." ”

"Hmm!" Duanmu Huaze nodded, looked at Frankie and said, "How do you go to the Third Ring Road?"

"Just go all the way down this road to the entrance to the Third Ring Road. But aren't you sure you want to get a few ghost soldiers as bodyguards?" asked Frankie.

"No need. Duanmu Huaze shook his head, then said goodbye to Xu Taiping and walked in the direction of the Third Ring Road.

For Duanmu Huaze's strength, Xu Taiping still recognizes it very much, it is very simple to survive in the third ring with his ability, and he currently has some more important things to do, so he can only let Duanmu Huaze go alone.

"Frankie, take your big cousin around, I'm going to find someone. Xu Taiping said.

"Looking for someone? You have friends in the City of Fear? I heard what you said before, it looks like you've been to the City of Fear. Frankie said.

"Well, I've been, I'm going to meet a friend. Xu Taiping said.

"I think we should go in the direction of the Third Ring Road now. Cavendish said.

"There's no hurry in this matter, didn't you say it, at twelve o'clock in the evening, even if we kill the ghost king now, it doesn't make any sense, we still have to wait until twelve o'clock in the evening, I'll go see a friend of mine first, if you want to be with me, you can follow, if you don't come with me, you can be with Frankie's eldest cousin, Frankie can guarantee your safety." Xu Taiping said.

"I have no faith in anyone but you. Cavendish shook his head.

"Then Frankie, you can take your eldest cousin with you, eldest cousin, you have also seen the situation along the way, it is up to you whether you can do business here and come in. Xu Taiping said.

"Okay, let's go and walk around!" the eldest cousin nodded.

"Then let's separate for now. Xu Taiping said, pulling Michael to the side, and Cavendish also followed behind Xu Taiping.

"What are you here for?" asked Frankie, curious.

"I don't know about them, I'm here to inspect the market. The eldest cousin said.

"Market, are you going to do business here?" asked Frankie, surprised.

"Hmm!" the eldest cousin nodded.

"What business?" asked Frankie.

"Arms!" said the eldest cousin.

"Arms?!" Frankie's eyes widened, and then he burst out laughing, laughing as he said, "You're not mistaken, selling arms here?"

"Isn't it possible? Could it be that the arms market is also controlled by the Ghost King?" asked the eldest cousin.

"Not really, but, you know, why is it that arms are as expensive as food? because there are no people selling arms here, and no one here is trustworthy, and who would dare to sell them? I can guarantee that if you trade ten people, nine of them will take the weapons you gave you to kill after the transaction is completed, and the other one will kill you at the beginning of the transaction, there is no so-called integrity here, everyone may talk to you well when they don't have weapons, once you give them weapons, then the first person they kill must be you, there have been many arms dealers in Europe who have tried to do business here, but the result is the loss of soldiers, and the loss of arms, here, the arms business can not be done!" Frankie said.

"There is no business that can't be done, only people who can't do business, I still have to go and see, you take me around, don't go to dangerous places, in addition, take me to see places with good scenery, so I can take a few photos and go back to souvenirs." The eldest cousin said.

"Okay, let's take you around!" Frankie nodded.

The other side.

City gates.

A group of people, sitting in several specialized snow buggies, entered the city of fear from outside the city gate.

The gates of the City of Fear are undefended, and anyone who wants to enter or leave can do so!

However, after driving into the City of Dread, you have to get out of the car, and there are no cars between the cities of the City of Dread, and everyone has to rely on walking to get around.

After the car stopped, many people gathered around.

Everyone knows that the people who drive this kind of car are generally newcomers, and they are still looking for excitement, so maybe they can get some benefits from this newcomer.

The car door opened, and several tall bodyguards got out of the car, these people were fully armed, wearing body armor, and holding various rifles in their hands.

As soon as I saw this group of bodyguards, the people who came over automatically retreated, and at a glance I knew that it was a certain rich kid who came to the city of fear to swim in winter, this kind of person is not easy to mess with, because it is not illegal to kill people in the city of fear, and there are often rich children who come here to kill people and play, so ordinary people are hiding far away when they see such rich children.

After the bodyguard got out of the car, he surrounded the car, and then Henry stepped out of the car.

"Why hasn't there been any news of the mercenary team I hired so far?" Henry asked one of his men with a frown.

"I don't know, all communications are cut off. Henry's men said.

"Oh yes, waste my money!" Henry cursed dissatisfiedly, unbeknownst to him, the mercenary he had hired had become food for the people of the City of Fear...

Just then, a man with a thief's eyelid walked up to Henry's side.

"Mr. Henry. The man shouted at Henry.

"Hmm!" Henry nodded, walking over to the man, "Did you find Cavendy?"

"I've already found out, and my men are staring at them!" said the thief-eyed man.

"That's good, keep an eye on them, don't let up for a moment, and besides, find me a place to stay, I'll be cold!" said Henry, rubbing his hands.

"Yes, yes, yes!"
