Stronger with More Jobs-Chapter 516 - 251: Unique Arctic Customs, the Ghost Hunting Ground!
She looked at Fang Qingyu, enunciating each word: "All these targets, without exception, have disappeared. They left no trace, nor did they trigger any large-scale conflict that could shake the Federation."
"It’s as if they never existed."
"Over time, among the real high-ranking circles and top powerhouses on the Arctic Front, the title of ’Federation’s No. 1 Assassin’ naturally fell on her shoulders. Because she accomplished what others wouldn’t dare to think of or could never achieve."
Fang Qingyu remained silent.
Such a legendary figure with unfathomable strength, yet possessing extremely personal hobbies...
It’s indeed difficult to describe and define in simple terms.
Nonetheless, their choice of Glazed Light City now had an added degree of assurance.
After all, with a strong City Lord, it’s unlikely they would watch their city be invaded without doing anything.
"Thank you, Miss Su, for clearing things up."
Fang Qingyu expressed his gratitude to Su Wanqing solemnly; this information was crucial.
Su Wanqing smiled charmingly and waved her hand: "It was nothing. In the future, in Glazed Light City, I might have to rely on Captain Fang for assistance."
Her words were half-truth, half-joke.
The two chatted a bit more and exchanged room numbers on the ship.
At that moment, a middle-aged man in clothing with Su Family’s unique patterns hurriedly approached from the elevator entrance, whispering a few words respectfully to Su Wanqing.
Su Wanqing nodded, giving Fang Qingyu and Jiang Wei an apologetic smile: "I have some matters to attend to, please excuse me. See you in Glazed Light City."
"See you in Glazed Light City."
Fang Qingyu nodded.
Watching Su Wanqing’s graceful figure disappear at the elevator entrance, Fang Qingyu also took Jiang Wei’s small hand: "Let’s go, let’s head down too."
The elevator descended.
As soon as the door opened, Fang Qingyu saw Wei Banmeng, Chu Kuanglan, and Lu Jiuyuan standing in the elevator lobby like three gate gods.
Wei Banmeng’s face was expressionless.
But his eyes looked at Fang Qingyu hauntingly, as if silently accusing him.
Chu Kuanglan crossed his arms, his face showing deep resentment, his mouth turned downwards, looking like someone who just had a huge debt unpaid.
Lu Jiuyuan held his sword, eyes sharply fixed on Fang Qingyu, although he said nothing.
But the vibe of "Captain, that’s not fair" was almost palpable.
Fang Qingyu felt a tingle on his scalp, and a slight sense of guilt rose in his heart.
Thinking of the training ground earlier, he indeed had a bit of a "strategic retreat," leaving his teammates to handle the enthusiastic crowd...
"Ahem."
Fang Qingyu coughed lightly, forcing a sheepish smile onto his face.
Taking two steps forward, he pushed Chu Kuanglan and Lu Jiuyuan towards a nearby elevator without giving them a chance to refuse, "Let’s go, let’s go, I’ve just found a great spot, let me take you to relax and unwind!"
Wei Banmeng raised an eyebrow slightly, her cool voice carrying an imperceptible hint of fatigue and curiosity: "What place? Can it be more ’lively’ than the training ground?"
Fang Qingyu already pressed the elevator button, watching the sinister skull icon light up on the screen, he spoke in a low voice: "A place where we can ’experience’ the Arctic Front atmosphere in advance."
"Experience the Arctic Front?" The three were momentarily stunned.
"Ding—"
The elevator door opened, and a wave of heat mixed with deafening noise suddenly hit them!
"Kill! Kill him!!"
"Tear it apart! Get it!!"
"Don’t chicken out! Hack its neck!!"
"Roar——!!!"
The frenzied shouts, beast-like growls, the sharp clanging of metal, and the agonizing wails of some creature nearing death...
The various sounds filled the entire elevator cabin like boiling magma.
What met their eyes was a giant circular space.
It resembled a massive, sunken, Ancient Roman Colosseum-style arena.
In the center was a circular arena covered by a high-intensity transparent energy force field, with a diameter exceeding a hundred meters.
At this moment, a bloody scene was playing out on the platform.
A burly man, drenched in blood, with chiseled muscles, wearing only tattered leather armor, wielded a heavily notched giant axe, frantically battling a sinister Life Ghost resembling an enlarged Saber-toothed Tiger, covered in ice-blue bone armor and exhaling chilling air!
The man’s body was covered with claw marks deep enough to see the bone, blood flowing profusely, his movements started to stumble, yet his eyes were like those of a wounded beast, filled with a frenzy of rage and a ruthless determination at all costs. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
Every axe swing was laced with a resolve to go down together.
The Ice Armor Saber-toothed Tiger Life Ghost was not faring well either, with one hind leg seemingly heavily wounded, its movements appeared sluggish, the ice-blue bone armor covered with axe marks, seeping dark green viscous blood.
Surrounding the central arena were spectator stands rising in tiers like a stadium.
Now every seat was occupied, packed with all kinds of people.
There were soldiers in camo combat uniforms, exuding a tough aura.
There were Arctic native hunters wrapped in thick animal pelts, sharp-eyed like a hawk.
There were also well-dressed business tycoons or influential figures waving their fists in excitement.
Even some children, seemingly just eight or nine years old, being held in adults’ arms, watched the bloody combat with wide eyes, faces showing no fear, only excitement and frenzy.
Everyone seemed as if they were on a high, shouting at the top of their lungs.
"Ghost Hunting Ground!"
Chu Kuanglan sucked in a breath of cold air, his voice booming and laced with disbelief.
Wei Banmeng and Lu Jiuyuan’s faces also instantly darkened, their brows furrowed tightly.
Within the Federation’s borders, such a place actually existed?
And it was on this "Ark of Hope," representing the Federation’s highest technology?
Allowed to exist so openly?!
Imprisoning Life Ghosts, letting humans battle them, for public viewing and entertainment...
