Chapter 45 The Haunted Mansion in the Old District

Zhang Xiao: "I can't understand why a player would want to enter a place like a gang with extremely few resources. โ€

Lively lowered her voice: "Because not long after I arrived in Twilight City, when I was doing a mission in Xicheng District, I received a C-level progress mission, and the goal of the mission was to destroy the three major gangs in Twilight City. โ€

"Then why not join the Imperial Police?"

"Do you think a small police officer can bring down the three gangs? Jason knows exactly where you've been to Twilight, who you're here with, and where you're staying, and it's not something the gang members can find out. โ€

"This Capodon actually checked me, and I'll have to give him some color when I go back."

He was a little puzzled: "Why are you telling me this, you know I'm just an NPC." โ€

"I don't know what's going on, but I always feel like you're different from other NPCs."

"Maybe I'm more handsome"

"Forehead ยทยทยทยทยท"

Lively immediately changed the subject: "I want you to help me complete the task." โ€

Zhang Xiaoke was reluctant to get into this troubled water: "What's in it for me?" โ€

"The entire Black Zone of Twilight City will be under my control, and it will give you countless benefits when the time comes."

Zhang Xiao smiled: "I really thought you received the task of killing the three major gangs, let's talk about something practical." โ€

Lyphlyn smiled noncommittally and stretched out five fingers: "50 million paradise coins!" โ€

"500 million!" Zhang Xiao's tone was stiff, and there seemed to be no room for maneuver.

Lashlin was a little angry: "You don't want the lion to open his mouth. โ€

"The three major gangs control the entire underground trading network in Twilight City, and the net profit in a year is probably more than tens of billions! I'm just asking for a fraction, and if that doesn't work, there's no need to talk about it anymore. โ€

Lively bit her lip: "Okay, I promise you, I will hand over the Paradise Coin to you as soon as the matter is completed." โ€

"I'll help you get the barbarians first, and then pay half first"

Zhang Xiao understood that the other party just casually agreed, and he remembered that the bounty hunter Sarah had said that he would take out the barbarians before, so he agreed.

"The Barbarians are no ordinary gang, they have quite a few Abilities under their command."

"Then you don't have to worry about it, just prepare the Paradise Coins in advance."

Lyphlin smiled: "Don't worry about the Paradise Coins, if you can really bring down the barbarians, Jason is still willing to give generously." โ€

She shook her glass and touched it with him: "Happy cooperation!" โ€

"It turned out that I was looking for Lao Tzu to talk about cooperation"

Zhang Xiao poured the rest of the red wine into his mouth.

"Can you get me a phone?"

Because I didn't join the Imperial camp, I needed to file for the purchase of communication equipment, and I had to go to the Imperial Government Hall to go through the procedures, and it would take two days to go back and forth.

Lashlin smiled, "No problem, just come and get it tomorrow." โ€

Zhang Xiao said goodbye to her, went out and got into a taxi and returned to her residence in Haidong District.

Zhao Yu was sitting in the room with a handkerchief to wipe his glasses, and his eyes narrowed into a slit when he saw someone come in.

Zhang Xiao: "Draw me the location of the Dark Brotherhood." โ€

Zhao Yu hurriedly put on his glasses: "You really want to go?" โ€

"Go get acquainted with the terrain."

"Then I'll go with you, the terrain of the old city is complicated, and I can drive it with a pen."

The two drove to the door of the abandoned mansion on Li Er Street in Xicheng District, and saw two thick willow trees growing at the door, the leaves on which fluttered in the wind, and through it they could see the outline of the half-hidden mansion.

Zhao Yu: "This place is said to be unclean, and there have been many strange things in the vicinity, and many people call this big house a ghost house." โ€

"You wait here for a while, I'll go in and have a look."

"Then you pay more attention to safety, and call me immediately if you have something."

Zhang Xiao pushed open the big black iron door and let out an ugly "squeak" sound.

A courtyard full of fallen leaves appeared in front of him, and the walls and windows were graffiti with some huge bats, all with their mouths wide open, revealing sharp canine teeth, and blood dripping from the corners of their mouths.

The whitewashed interior door has a bronze handle that has not been touched in the slightest bit of dust, and it is obvious that it is often touched.

He opened the door and walked in, and at a glance, the walls of the room were covered with dense creepers, and a thick stream of blood, mixed with the musty smell peculiar to old houses, entered his nose.

He spotted a hunched statue of a minotaur monster at the corner of the stairs, with a pair of malformed wings that were underdeveloped on its back and a wicked grin on its face.

"Gargoyle"

[You have triggered the D-Class quest, [Dark Brotherhood Branch], Accept/Decline]

[Reward: 400,000 experience]

[Special Reward: Face Ornament, Memories of the Elders]

"Accept"

[Mission Reminder, the Dark Brotherhood is one of the notorious unions, just one branch of Twilight City has killed people in five figures, kill them!] ใ€‘

Special rewards have specific activation conditions, in which case they basically make him kill the most important character in them.

Zhang Xiao roughly understood what was going on here, he turned around and pushed open the door and walked out.

In the basement of the abandoned house at this time.

A man in a red military uniform with a black belt tied to his forehead stood in front of the coffin, his head was very long, and under the black belt, it seemed that he had two faces.

His name is Saipu, and he is the elite killer of the Dark Brotherhood, and his status in the Dark Brotherhood is one order higher than that of the previous high-level killer Lizardman.

"Elder, that kid is gone."

"Has anyone provoked the riot troops?" William lay in the coffin, his eyes a little uncertain.

Saipu: "Our people are very well-behaved, and no one is going to mess with those horrible guys. โ€

"You must stay away from that kid recently, and you can't earn this 10 million bounty."

"Okay Elder!"

"This place should have been noticed by the Empire, clean up and move out in the next few days."

"Yes, I'll do it as soon as I can."

Early the next morning, Zhao Yu drove Zhang Xiao directly to the Cheetah Gang's martial arts hall.

As soon as I entered the door, a strong aroma of coffee wafted in.

With a pair of pale blue heels on the floor, Lyphlin put her slender legs together on the couch, leaning back on a pillow and drinking coffee.

Seeing the two walk in, he immediately smiled: "Who is this?" โ€

"Zhao Yu, Lashlin"

Zhang Xiao briefly introduced the two.

Lashlin smiled charmingly: "Next time there is a handsome guy, remember to introduce me earlier." โ€

Zhao Yu secretly glanced at the long legs, and his face was a little red.

Zhang Xiao: "He's very shy Lashlin, next time I'll introduce you to a sexy beard." โ€

"I'm not interested in having too much hair, the phone is on the table, the anonymous number, 70,000 paradise coins."

70,000 paradise coins is now an astronomical amount for Zhang Xiao.

"Keep the accounts, and I'd like to ask you for a favor."

"Nope"

The corners of Zhang Xiao's eyes twitched, Lao Tzu didn't want to borrow money, but it was really uncomfortable to be rejected by you so directly.

"I need a little dynamite."

Whiplin didn't borrow money when she heard it: "Dynamite? โ€

Zhang Xiao took out a list listed in the car, and Lively took it in her hand and looked at it, which listed a long list of names of explosives.

"You're going to blow up the Empire State Building?"

"Get it for me, and I'll pay you double."

Lyvorine shook her head.

"I can't help you with this, it's not a matter of compensation, these explosives can blow up dozens of buildings together, if something goes wrong, the government will immediately remove the Cheetah Gang, I don't want to go to the Abyss Prison yet, and the Cheetah Gang is not an imperial armory, there are not so many explosives."

"I'm going to use it in an abandoned house, and I won't use it to mess around."

Lyvorine was resolute: "There really isn't, and if there is, it won't be given to you." โ€

"Then find a way to help me with 20 portable C4s."

Zhang Xiao saw that Lashlin was a little hesitant: "After the matter is completed, we will quickly deal with the barbarians, and we are already planning this matter." โ€

Lyphlin threw a probe at Zhao Yu and found that the other party was a level 14 scholar.

"Only 10"

Seeing that Zhang Xiao was still bargaining, Lashlin was direct and said, "Don't forget it." โ€

Zhang Xiao was a little helpless: "Okay, 10 is 10." โ€

"These explosives are worth seven or eight million Paradise Coins, and I don't need you to pay double when they are used up, but you must pay the original price of the explosives to the gang, otherwise Jason will definitely get me in trouble if he finds out."

Zhang Xiao smiled: "No problem." โ€

"Come to the underground garage in the evening, I'll have someone prepare."
