Chapter 451: Who Is This Cannon For?
Belón City, located in the northwesternmost corner of the South-Central Subcontinent, is bordered by the Heber United Nations' famous brain-dead gathering place of Floria in the west, the famous smuggling city of the Northern Ice and Snow Continent in the north, and surrounded by vast forests in the south and east.
In the early days, this small city was only used as a forward base of the Central South Subcontinent Alliance to resist the invasion of the second phantom creatures, because of the abundant coal and iron resources, it directly became the weapons production center of the Central South Subcontinent Alliance during the war.
Later, after the end of the war, human society entered a new stage of development, before the large-scale popularization of psionic weapons, the Central and Southern Subcontinent Alliance coveted the benefits that the city could bring, and through two wars with the Northern Ice and Snow Continent, it took the southern half of the city known as the Bad Frye Arsenal. Shengsheng artificially divided a city of Perón into two parts: Belón and New Kiar.
In contrast, the Heber United next door is much more elegant, at least in terms of food.
After the South-Central Subcontinent Alliance spent a huge price to take the city of Belon, a large amount of Heber United Nations funds immediately poured into the city. Since 2816 A.D., the Gun Manufacturers Association of Peron City was founded, and the city became a city under the rule of the South Central Subcontinent Alliance, but actually controlled by Heber United arms dealers, and the life of every citizen in the city depended on these two parties.
At the beginning, because of the developed local industries, everyone's life was still prosperous.
However, with the development of the new era of "Phantom Industry", "Mystic Industry" and "Occult Industry" systems, the global demand for conventional firearms was greatly reduced, and after 2950, the economy of Belon City declined rapidly.
Within 20 years, the capital of the Heber United Nations had completely withdrawn from the region, leaving more than 12 million unemployed mechanical engineers and skilled workers, as well as workers in the steel and coal industries, to be fed by hunger.
The government, as the administrator, could not afford to build enough superbuildings to accommodate so many unemployed people, so it simply gave up on bailing out the area and left the city in chaos. In the twenty years from 2950 to 2970, the population of Belon City plummeted from more than 12 million to 9.8 million......
Fortunately, the huge human society always has the ability to self-regulate.
Where there is a power vacuum, there will be power that is suitable for the land.
After twenty years of chaos, the global Demon Hunter Guild began to grow stronger and stronger, and by distributing a large number of point quests, it attracted demon hunters to enter the region on a large scale. The arrival of the Demon Hunter not only ensured the living environment of Belon City to a certain extent, but also indirectly benefited the city's security, and also brought economic recovery to the city.
The hotel industry was the first to recover, followed by the specialty trade and entertainment industries.
Due to the proximity to the border, some teams of demon hunters would often bring in large quantities of cheap goods and sell them to New Chiar, opposite the city of Peron, which became a haven for smugglers.
The development of the logistics and entertainment industry has led to the rejuvenation of Belon City.
During the period from 2970 to 3,000, there were more than 3,000 hotels, massage centers, bathing centers, KTVs and other places in Belon City, and at least 1,000 more than 1,000 Phantom Realm Material Exchanges, professional auction centers and various financial service stores.
Everything that humans can imagine related to the phantom world can be found here, the venom of the Poison Corpse King, the spirit beads in the witch corpse, the worm silk of the abyss troll worm, the horns of the blood corpse, the evil eyeballs, everything, Adamantite, Mithril and the like are sold by the ton, and even all kinds of silver Pegasus, centaurs and other living creatures in the Phantom Realm are commonplace. There are also all kinds of contraband that are native to the human world, such as brown sugar water, white sugar jelly, and the like, which are almost sold semi-openly at this time.
Business has been booming for a long time, and naturally, it is impossible for the government of the Central and Southern Subcontinent Alliance not to have red eyes.
In 3011, the second year after Heruni came to power, he passed the "Central and Southern Subcontinent Alliance Anti-Phantom Product Smuggling Law", and then joined forces with Wei Guanshan and Ding Ningtao of the Falcon City Elders' House to raid the city of Belon like a plow. While both sides were making a lot of money, Belon City was once again in chaos. And this time the chaos is different from the last one.
This time, although the city of Perón was raided, the new Kiar, across the border, was still alive and well, and there was a demand for goods from the south. As the only way to reach New Kial from the land, the city of Perón held the gate of this walkway. In the case that there is no way to do local business and can only rely on illegal logistics to make a living, the remnants of the various parties in Belon City in order to compete for the market share of purchases and shipments, and because the distribution of spoils is never uneven, negotiations will always be invalid, and finally slowly, in the last two decades, violent settlement of disputes has become the social norm in Belon City.
Of the city's 8 million population, almost 3 million belong directly to various associations, and the remaining 5 million are almost all family members of community members. As for the government of the Central and Southern Subcontinent Alliance, this group of dogs disappeared ten years ago. In the past three years, he has directly chosen to suspend on the grounds that there are too many people and cannot collect taxes......
"So it's really not that Lao Tzu wants to come out and mix it, it's all forced by the environment of this mother's sale...... What does it mean to enter Belon as deep as the sea, Grandmaster, I can't help myself!" On the edge of the dance floor in a dimly lit environment, after the panda finished telling Geng Jiangyue about the complicated history of Belon City, he hugged a blonde girl with a chest bigger than his head with a painful face, and buried his head in grief and indignation.
The big wave blonde girl hugged the panda, her eyes full of cooperative sympathy.
At this time, a black super junior brother came up, bent down and asked the panda: "Brother Da, the Klein gang has sent someone to negotiate, saying that they want us to pay for medical expenses, 300,000 yuan, and if we don't give it, we will go and burn down our warehouse." ”
"Mom sells batches, there is such a good thing?!" the panda suddenly lifted his head from the arms of the big wave blonde girl, his face full of surprise.
The little brother of Hei Chao was stunned when he heard this, and repeated: "Brother Da, I mean, they are going to burn our warehouse......"
"Let them burn!" Panda's eyes lit up, and he said loudly, "If they dare to touch our warehouse, Lao Tzu will have a reason to destroy their whole family, if their whole family is gone, will their business be ours?"
The little brother of Hei Chao couldn't help but say: "Da Ge, Klein is a diamond-level master. ”
The panda suddenly sneered: "Diamond Street is a bird feather......"
The little brother of Heichao did not give up, and continued to grow the prestige of others: "Da Ge, of course I believe in your ability, the problem is that we have a total of more than sixty people, and the Crane family has more than six hundred, if we fight, our side may all die......"
The panda continued to sneer: "What's wrong with six hundred people? Even if it's six hundred monsters, Lao Tzu doesn't care about them. Why don't you go out and tell them the messenger now, Klein, his family is eighteen generations old, and Lao Tzu's day is set! Whoever doesn't burn Lao Tzu's warehouse is the grandson! Don't say that Lao Tzu doesn't follow the rules, let them make a statement after the burning, otherwise when I his whole family, I'm afraid that he will say that Lao Tzu will provoke trouble and bully him!"
The little brother of Hei Chao was stunned by the panda's.
The blonde girl on the side was even more stunned by the panda's domineering handsomeness, and hugged the panda and covered him with a red lip print.
When Geng Jiangyue heard this, he couldn't help but interrupt: "Wait a minute, are you talking about the group of people I kicked away just now? Why is it so troublesome to go out and cut people? You have to make a statement on the other side? Can't you just cut it directly?"
When it's none of his business, his father-in-law is always so afraid that the world will not be chaotic......
Panda explained: "Although Belon City is very chaotic, there are still basic rules. We have a federation of societies here that is maintaining basic order in the city. In the case of fire and merger between associations, we must also talk about the rules, and we must not just destroy people casually, but we must find out which side is taking the initiative to provoke trouble and which side is defending and counterattacking. If the rules are broken, the Federation of Associations will take action to uphold justice, and then destroy the messers, and the whole city will re-divide the spoils. ”
"Oh...... Reasonable. Geng Jiangyue nodded and said, "Salute first and then soldier, right?" ”
"Yes, yes, that's what it means. Panda said, "And the Klein Gang is the largest gang in the fifth block of the third district of Belon City, that is, the rotating chairman of the fifth block community association in the third district, if I go and kill them without saying anything, the next thing I will have to face is all the clubs in the entire fifth district." In that case, I'm sure I'll not be able to make it in the Fifth Block, and I'll have to move somewhere else......"
Geng Jiangyue narrowed his eyes: "...... again?"
Hei Chao's junior brother explained to Geng Jiangyue in a whisper: "In the past half a year, Da Ge has been chased and killed all the way from the first district to the third district because he doesn't follow the rules, and now there are a total of 34 people from the city's community who are wanted for him......"
Geng Jiangyue suddenly stood in awe: "So fierce?"
Panda said modestly: "It's just a small scene, compared with the grandmaster, there is still a big gap." ”
Geng Jiangyue couldn't help but say, "But aren't you afraid that someone will be hacked to death when you sleep one day?"
"I was a little scared before...... But now that you're here, I'm not afraid!" Panda first sighed, but then his eyes were full of confidence, and he said excitedly, "I believe that as long as you are behind me, it won't be long before I can dominate the fifth district, even the entire third district! One day, the entire city of Beron will tremble under my feet......!"
Geng Jiangyue was a little passionate by the panda, and then raised his hand to look at the time, and saw that it was almost five o'clock, and it was dark in Belon City, so he got up and said: "Then come on, I'll go to the hospital to report first, and I have to go to work tomorrow." ”
The panda hurriedly got up and sent him off: "The person on my side was cut and went to your hospital to see a doctor, can I get a discount?"
Geng Jiangyue said very frankly: "I don't know, I'm just an intern who pays tuition now, this kind of thing has to be the head of the department to be qualified to speak, and I can't get the dean's consent to do it......"
Panda: "Makes sense......"
The two of them chatted and walked out, and suddenly another black super brother hurriedly ran in, shouting in surprise: "Crane Gang! The Crane Gang was wiped out! Not a single person was left alive!"
The panda was shocked when he heard this: "Who did it?"
The little brother who reported the news said: "I heard that it is a group of special forces from the Central South Military Association!"
"Huh?" the panda couldn't help but show a demented expression.
...... the special forces of the Central South Military Association?
What does the third brother government want to do?
Such a cannon to fight mosquitoes...... Who is this cannon for?!
