After entering the hall, the man led Lin Lang to the front desk.
After checking the token and ability level again, Lin Lang was assigned to room 703.
"From now on, you'll live here. You have a three-day trial period, and your daily expenses are free. After three days, if you're not chosen by the commander, you'll need to pay three low-level blood crystals or one mid-level blood crystal every month."
"What does it mean to be chosen by the Commander?"
Lin Lang wanted to know what he would be chosen to do.
"Recently, many of our psychics have disappeared for no apparent reason, and the commander needs to recruit replacements."
The psychic disappeared, probably because his blood crystal was taken away.
"Thank you, I understand." Lin Lang said, pretending to take a pack of cigarettes from his bag and handed it to the man. "I'm new here, thank you for showing me the way."
"Okay, you're not bad, old man." The man pinched his cigarette pouch and said, "My name is Jiang Sheng. If you need anything, you can find me at the city gate."
Jiang Sheng put the cigarette in his pocket and left first.
"Thank you very much."
After watching Jiang Sheng leave, Lin Lang took the key and went upstairs.
When he opened the door of room 703, a musty smell mixed with the smell of blood hit his nose, choking Lin Lang so much that he hurried out.
Lin Lang frowned slightly and asked the front desk to change rooms: "Hello, are there any other rooms available?"
She spoke in a calm tone, hoping to find a quieter and more comfortable place to live.
The receptionist, sitting behind the tall counter, raised her head and glanced lazily at Lin Lang.
"You want to change rooms?" There was a hint of impatience in his tone, as if this was a trivial matter that bothered him.
"Yes. It's better to be better." Lin Lang nodded firmly. She needed a safer and more private space to carry out her subsequent plans.
The receptionist shrugged, seemingly unconcerned. However, when Lin Lang mentioned "a better room," his expression changed slightly. He immediately straightened his posture and began to communicate with Lin Lang with a touch of enthusiasm.
"Here, the best room costs one low-level blood crystal a day." The receptionist's words revealed arrogance.
Lin Lang frowned.
Everyone here knows exactly what blood crystal means, and they even use blood crystal as currency!
Seeing Lin Lang frown, the receptionist thought he was dissatisfied with the price and began to look disdainful again, "If you don't have blood crystals, you can only stay in the assigned room."
"Thirty low-level blood crystals." Lin Lang took out thirty blood crystals from the storage bag, smiled slightly, and placed them on the desk at the front desk.
The attitude of the front desk staff changed drastically in an instant.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it quickly turned into a flattering expression.
"Oh, sir, please wait a moment." The receptionist immediately picked up the blood crystal, took the key personally, and took Lin Lang to the elevator.
"The rooms below the tenth floor are all arranged by the Pavilion Leader. The rooms above the tenth floor are only for people with wealth like you."
The front desk introduced us in the elevator.
"The elevators are all separate. This elevator can only be used by people above the tenth floor."
As they were talking, they had already reached the fifteenth floor.
The receptionist took out the key and opened the rooms one by one, letting Lin Lang choose.
Lin Lang chose a suite with a large window overlooking the city and gave the front desk clerk three blood crystals. "The commander will be recruiting in three days. If I'm hired, I'll renew my subscription."
The receptionist took the blood crystal, and the look in his eyes became even more flattering.
He hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to say something, but eventually left the room silently.
"In three days, I will be selected. What exactly is this selection?
Just now, she saw the receptionist hesitant to speak.
Putting down his bag, Lin Lang stood in front of the window, looking at the bustling inner city, and fell into deep thought.
When choosing, you must show your superpowers, but Zheng Dahai's superpower is beast transformation, which is not easy to show.
It seems that Zheng Dahai's face won't last long.
We have to think of a way to make Zheng Dahai disappear reasonably.
Before it got dark, Lin Lang decided to go for a walk in the city.
Walking down the street, you can see all kinds of small businesses, mainly selling daily necessities and food.
There are also some entertainment venues.
Lin Lang discovered that she lived three kilometers away from the inner city.
The core of Nanchen Group should be in the inner city.
Pretending to wander around, Lin Lang walked to the inner city.
There are guards standing more than ten meters away from the inner city gate, and each guard has special abilities!
Everyone in this city has special abilities, so it would be difficult for me to wipe out the city alone.
What's more, she couldn't even enter the inner city and had no idea where Nanchen's core figures were.
Just now, her spiritual sense only probed a little, and she found that there were powerful psychic ability users' tentacles all over the inner city.
Immediately withdrawing his spiritual sense, Lin Lang pretended to buy something at a stall closest to the inner city.
“Someone!”
In the inner city, in a luxurious house, a young and plump woman opened her eyes.
"Miss Huan, what's wrong?"
The man serving the woman asked respectfully.
"Just now, someone from the outer city was spying on the inner city. I was just a little bit away from catching her, but unfortunately..."
"I'll report this to the young master right away."
The man bowed to the woman and walked out.
After the man walked out, the woman closed her eyes again.
Someone had clearly extended their psychic tentacles into the inner city just now, but there wasn't a single psychic in the outer city. Who could that person have been?
The woman frowned and spread out her psychic powers, trying to find the tiny tentacle. However, after working hard for several hours, she still found nothing. If her psychic powers were not at a high level, she would have suspected that she had perceived it wrongly.
Lin Lang, the instigator outside the city, bought a few things and returned to the guild hall.
She took out a blood crystal and handed it to the receptionist, asking her to prepare some dinner for her, and then went upstairs.
While the front desk was delivering dinner to the room, Lin Lang took out another blood crystal and placed it in his palm.
"Do you want it?"
Lin Lang tossed the blood crystal.
"Yes," the receptionist answered without hesitation. Who in this city doesn't want blood crystal?
Blood crystals can be used as currency and can also be swallowed to increase one's strength.
"Then tell me everything you know. I just want to know more about the situation in the city so that I don't offend anyone without knowing it."
When the receptionist heard what Lin Lang meant, they thought she just wanted to know the distribution of power in the city, so they started to introduce it with confidence.
"The main city is divided into two parts. The inner city is inhabited by the Nanchen family and the Huan family, while the outer city has four major families, namely Jiang, Song, Gao, and Ji."
