Chapter 287 - 287 Going Deep!
287 Going Deep!
“Edmund, we want to find a valley in the depths of the extreme north.”
After everyone sat down, Beelzebub took out a map and pointed at a rough range to tell Edmund.
“Why are there so many people going to the northern ice plains recently?” Edmund scratched his head and muttered in confusion.
“Are there other people going too?” Beelzebub’s pupils constricted as he hurriedly asked.
“Oh, there were quite a few groups of people. Some were from the West, some were from the Americas, and some were from South Asia. Although they were pretending to be tourists, I could smell the scent of the hyenas on them even with my eyes closed. There are even many old companions of yours and mine,” said Edmund with a disdainful smile.
Beelzebub quickly looked at Chen Yun and spoke hesitantly.
“Mr. Chen, did the news get leaked?”
“It’s fine. The location is more than a thousand kilometers away from the ice plains. Even helicopters can’t reach it, and there are many places that can’t be reached by cars. We can only rely on our legs to walk over. Even if they heard some news, they might not be able to find the exact location. What’s there to be afraid of?” Chen Yun spoke calmly.
Not only did Beelzebub nod, but even Edmund nodded repeatedly.
Chen Yun was not even a match for the number one mercenary expert in the world. No matter how powerful those people were, how could they be Chen Yun’s match?
“Just in case, let’s move immediately.”
Chen Yun stood up.
Edmund also quickly stood up. Although he did not follow them, he got several people to be guides. Moreover, he sent his elite subordinates to accompany the group of 100 people. In the end, when everyone stepped into the ice plains, there were already more than ten of Edmund’s people.
The snowmobiles drove happily on the ice plains. After the long convoy left Russia, they quickly entered an uninhabited area. At first, there was a small town dozens of kilometers away, but in the end, there was no town for more than a hundred kilometers.
Chen Yun sat on the snowmobile every day.
“Only in such a place can it not attract too much attention.” Chen Yun closed his eyes and thought indifferently.
“Mr. Chen, we’ve been traveling for ten days. We’re seven to eight hundred kilometers deep into the ice plains. We’re getting closer and closer to that valley.” Beelzebub squeezed into Chen Yun’s car and told him while holding the map.
“There’s only one town within a hundred kilometers of that valley. At that time, Eson and the others were resupplying in this town. Should we stop in the town to rest?”
“Oh? Is there a small town?”
Chen Yun was slightly surprised.
When they set off, they could still encounter towns and villages at first. Later on, they had not seen a single person for three to four days. This town hung alone on the desolate ice plains. It was too strange.
“That town has existed since our ancestors’ time. The older generation called it the ‘White Fox Town’.” The guide sitting in front of the car, an old man called ‘Old Logan’, muttered in turbid Russian.
“It’s said that the people in that town can communicate with demons, so they instructed us not to approach them. That’s where demons live.”
“White Fox Town?”
Chen Yun nodded.
This kind of ancient town that had existed for hundreds of years was probably a little strange. Otherwise, how could it survive in the northern ice plains that were filled with ferocious beasts and was uninhabited for thousands of miles?
“Let’s go straight to the valley. Don’t waste time.” Chen Yun finally instructed.
Beelzebub nodded in agreement.
…
Not long after Chen Yun and the others left, Edmund felt that something was wrong. Recently, there seemed to be more and more foreigners coming to Russia. Moreover, many of them seemed to be powerful. The smell of the mercenary world on them was very strong.
As Edmund staggered towards the best bar in the city, he thought “Forget it, it has nothing to do with me. I’ll go and drink vodka.”. He entered the bar and skillfully ordered a glass of high-purity vodka with rum.
Edmund finished his glass and was about to order another when someone suddenly sat beside him and slapped his shoulder.
“Dear Edmund, long time no see.”
“Who are you?” Edmund opened his eyes angrily and saw a middle-aged white man with long fiery red hair. He looked very smart and was not wearing enough clothes.
Upon seeing him, Edmund narrowed his eyes. “Red Ghost, you’re an information broker. Why are you here?”
Red Ghost, who was also known as Lion Puck, was a famous intelligence dealer in the Underworld. He knew all kinds of information. Moreover, Edmund knew that wherever Red Ghost appeared, nothing good would happen. He guaranteed that all kinds of revenge killings, explosions, and conflicts of interests would follow.
Sure enough, Red Ghost shrugged.
“Old friend, you have to know that you have a job to do. There are many people who want to buy a map to the northern ice plains. They’re offering a high price, enough for you to buy a small island in the South Sea. Furthermore, they’re all big shots.”
“Hmph, what big shot? This is Russia, my territory. Even if the captain of Tianchi comes, I won’t give him any respect!” Edmund patted his chest and said heroically after drinking a glass of wine.
Tianchi was a large mercenary group located in Western Europe. It was ranked second on the Underworld Mercenary Rankings. In particular, Captain Carl was ranked 13th on the mercenary rankings. He was definitely a super expert.
Red Ghost smiled and did not say anything.
Then, under Edmund’s shocked gaze, a man in a black trench coat, full of the gentlemanly bearing of a British noble, pushed the door open and entered under the crowd. The man’s eyes were red, like a crimson blood moon.
“Is that Carl from Tianchi?”
Edmund could not help but stand up. His mouth was a little dry.
Then, before he could finish feeling surprised, a few groups of people walked in from behind. Some of these people were familiar to Edmund, and some were not. However, Edmund knew that each of them was the leader of a large organization in the world of mercenary powerhouses. With a stomp of their feet, the entire world of mercenary powerhouses would tremble.
“The leader of the Angel City Organization, Lance.”
“The president of the Storm Witch Society, Ms. Siford.”
“The South African giant, the Wind King.”
“The leader of the Dark Mercenary Group, Demon Elephant Torture Name.”
“An expert on the mercenary rankings, Mercenary Expert Earth Elephant.”
…
The people who came in were each more powerful than the other. Soon, more than half of the bar was filled by these powerhouses who shocked the world of mercenaries. Those people from the extreme north who were drinking quickly saw that something was wrong. Thus, they paid the bill and left. In the end, only Edmund and these powerhouses from the world of mercenaries were left in the entire bar.
“Oh Goddess, there are seven or eight leaders of large mercenary powerhouses. There are as many as five powerhouses on the mercenary rankings!”
Edmund was completely shocked.
There were only 20 spots on the mercenary rankings. Almost half of the experts on the mercenary rankings had come.
“What kind of earth-shattering event happened to make these experts gather here?”
Edmund’s heart trembled. Just this small bar alone had nearly 20 experts gathered. What kind of concept was this?
Half of the European and American experts in the world of mercenaries were here!
