Chapter 344: Storms and Powers Gather
Hua Qingyun pushed Hua Changle, and the eight bodyguards around him blocked the gazes from the dark.
Hua Qingyun leaned over and looked at the pale Hua Changle: "Are you okay? Shall we go and rest first?"
Hua Changle was sitting there, and he didn't even need to act ugly.
Her head was in a mess, and she felt a dull pain like a small hammer hitting her skull.
This time when I was riding the aircraft, the symptoms of stress sickness had been alleviated, but some messy images still flooded into my head uncontrollably.
Most of the images are blurry, with the clearest being the recurring scenes of people jumping from tall buildings.
Every time that scene appeared in her mind, her heart would ache with panic and fear.
Hua Changle guessed that the memory of this body was gradually recovering.
She knew she had to speed up her search for the "truth" as she didn't have much time left.
Hua Changle felt dizzy, nauseous and weak, but that was more psychological, so she said to Hua Qingyun: "I'm fine, let's go to where we're staying first."
The two then came to the reception room, where two people were already waiting at the corresponding reception entrance.
A smiling middle-aged man named Feng Tao is the leader of the Cultural Heritage Bureau.
One is a well-mannered young woman wearing black-framed glasses, named Chu Lingxin, who is a backbone of the Technical Center of the Cultural Heritage Protection Bureau.
This time, Hua Qingyun came to District 7 under the pretext of discussing the patent renewal of the exotic plant medicine with the Cultural Heritage Bureau. Naturally, he settled down at the Cultural Heritage Bureau.
Firstly, by using the name of business, we can reduce the suspicion of outsiders.
Secondly, the Cultural Heritage Protection Bureau is quite prestigious in the local area and can help them avoid a lot of trouble.
"Young Master, long time no see!"
Feng Tao came forward enthusiastically, bowed slightly, stretched out his hands to shake hands with Hua Qingyun, and the soft flesh on his face squeezed his eyes into two slits.
Hua Qingyun was a calm person, and given their status, there was no need for him to fawn on him, so he just extended his hand and shook hands before parting.
Feng Tao called Chu Lingxin forward and introduced her to Hua Qingyun: "This is Xiao Chu. Although she is young, she is already the head of our technical team."
Hua Qingyun also shook hands with Chu Lingxin.
Feng Tao then looked at Hua Changle: "This... Miss Hua doesn't look very well. Do you need to call a doctor to prepare?"
Hua Qingyun refused: "No need, just take us there now, Lele needs to rest."
"Okay, okay." Feng Tao said repeatedly, inviting the two to get in the same car with them.
What surprised Feng Tao was that the eldest son of the Hua family actually carried Miss Hua into the car himself, and he was so careful that he treated her more like a brother than a real brother.
Feng Tao pondered to himself: Isn’t it said that Hua Changle has a bad relationship with the Hua family?
Hua Changle was unaware of Feng Tao's inner grumblings, and cooperated with Hua Qingyun to continue pretending to be sickly.
Hua Qingyun sat next to Hua Changle and let her lean on his shoulder to rest.
Hua Changle leaned against him and closed her eyes.
Afterwards, Hua Qingyun went straight to the point and asked Feng Tao about the situation in District 7, and implicitly hinted at the whereabouts of the investigation teams in Districts 3 and 1.
Feng Tao, a shrewd man who had been in the bureau for many years, immediately grasped his meaning. He was mentally prepared and told a lot of information that was neither important nor itchy.
Finally, seeing that Hua Qingyun was calm and didn't respond to these nonsense and wasn't in a hurry at all, he said carefully:
"Young Master, recently, a group of people came from the south sea. They entered the customs legally, but they are not good people. They have caused chaos in the Eagle and Vulture Hall and the Jackal Gang, and our whole area is in turmoil."
"You only brought a few people with you this time. You know the situation in our area. If you don't have anything important to do, you'd better stay out."
Feng Tao continued, "Oh! If you need to go out, please be sure to inform the bureau. We will arrange more people to protect you... and Miss Hua's safety."
Hua Qingyun nodded.
At an angle that Feng Tao couldn't see, Hua Changle gently tugged at the corner of Hua Qingyun's clothes, indicating that he had heard it.
From the south sea?
And involved with two mercenary organizations?
That person must be a person with special abilities from Sunny Country or nearby areas.
The car they were in moved forward.
Among the eight major forces in District 7, more than half of their headquarters are located in District 7’s central city—the City of Desire.
District 7: City of Desire, District 8: City of Danger, District 9: City of Abyss.
These three cities are where the dragons and tigers truly reside and where storms gather in the land of disorder.
Among them, District 7, City of Desire, is the most chaotic.
This chaos is not the superficial kind of chaos, with fighting and hooliganism.
Rather, it means that here, fists and power are more powerful than reason and rules.
Compared with the Flower City in District 3, the most obvious difference is that everyone on the street here, regardless of gender or age, carries weapons with them.
It's not just because of the fighting between people. The three major regions of the Land of Chaos are located at the outermost edge of Middle-earth, with a long border with the Old Ruins, and are the first line of hunting for aliens.
People who live here must regard fighting and survival as commonplace.
The hovercraft marked with the Cultural Heritage Bureau logo can travel freely on the waterway.
Some distance behind it, there were several hovercrafts following inconspicuously.
Of course, this "not obvious" is for laymen. For the people who were following, the Cultural Heritage Bureau and Hua Qingyun, it was easy to spot the follower behind.
Hua Changle also knew it.
422, which had already invaded the public network of District , was already squatting on the surveillance camera, and was well aware of those vehicles that were following in turns but were still obvious.
For any public network shared by residents of such a large region, 422 is a bug and can be entered and exited freely.
Only networks with extremely high confidentiality, such as those in the military or at bases, are considered difficult for 422.
When Hua Changle heard what 422 said, he used his finger to write a number on Hua Qingyun's hand:
5.
Hua Qingyun immediately understood: there were five people from different forces following them.
Hua Changle closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then he had an idea in his mind:
The last five, plus the Cultural Heritage Protection Bureau, suddenly there are six of the “Eight Kings”.
The remaining two that did not show up openly should be the Xuanmen who did not care about fighting and Sister Ye’s Tianji Tower.
Xuanmen is easy to explain. As for Tianji Tower, they are the information center and there are spies in the building all over the city. Why do they need to track them so carelessly?
The main purpose of the tracking of these five forces is not to hide, otherwise wouldn't it be better to send one or two elite troops than this method?
They are expressing their attitude, or "demonstrating", to show their status to outsiders.
Among the vehicles of the five forces following Hua Changle, in one of them sat Zhao Yu and Fu Guang from the bloody fight arena.
Fu Guang had seen the people getting off the aircraft at the docking port.
He didn't feel anything when he saw Hua Qingyun, but he was stunned when he saw Hua Changle.
His main doubt was why Hua Qingyun brought a sickly young lady to such a place. What was the role of this young lady from the Hua family?
This question just flashed through Fu Guang's mind.
Fu Guang not only has to pay attention to the movements in front of him, but also the movements beside him.
Fu Guang keenly saw a gray circle logo between the gaps of the vehicles. It was a simple logo of nine dog heads touching each other, the logo of the Jackal Gang.
Not far to their right was the Jackal Gang's hovercraft.
It was so arrogant that they didn’t even take off the logo.
Fu Guang looked to the left again, and sure enough, there was a brighter black and white eagle head logo in the traffic.
Eagle Hall.
Fu Guang was speechless.
What is this about? Are you competing?
This is tracking, and they put up signs at a time like this? How crazy!
While Fu Guang was complaining about the two factions, he secretly sympathized with Hua Qingyun and Hua Changle.
