Chapter 191: Remiel’s Inquiry, the Featherless Bird!
Magic City, Qingtian Hunting Ground.
Song Qiming leaned against the front desk, the pipe he never left behind was puffing out wisps of green smoke.
The copper bell in front of the door suddenly rang crisply. He looked up and his hand holding the cigarette paused slightly.
"Hey, isn't this Lord Remiel?" Song Qiming narrowed his eyes and tapped his pipe on the counter. "What brings you to my little temple?"
"Old Song," Lemire walked in with a wry smile, "Just call me Wen Bo."
"I wouldn't dare." Song Qiming sneered, "If I ever make you unhappy, give me a dark judgment too."
A hint of helplessness flashed across Remiel's eyes, and he sat down at the bar.
"You've come all the way from the Holy City." Song Qiming put down his pipe with a snap, his eyes sharp. "Who are you targeting this time?"
"You think too badly of me." Remiel shook his head. "I just came to confirm one thing."
"oh?"
"About Lucifer," Remiel looked directly into Song Qiming's eyes. "You know him, right?"
…
Wanggui Town.
"Um, why did I fall asleep?"
Lingling sat up dazedly and rubbed her eyes.
Memories gradually return——
It seems like that bad guy hypnotized me with mind magic!
She yawned huffily and stretched her arms upwards.
The sunlight shines through the gauze curtains, outlining the girl's delicate curves. Her cotton nightgown rolls up slightly with her movements, revealing a section of her fair calves.
"woke up?"
Suddenly a gentle voice came from the door.
Lingling turned around suddenly and saw Wang Feng leaning against the door frame, shaking an exquisite lunch box in his hand with a mischievous smile on his lips.
!!!
The girl's cheeks flushed instantly, even the tips of her ears were stained crimson.
(ω)
"Are you hungry?" Wang Feng shook the food box in his hand. "I bought you some seafood porridge."
Lingling blinked her big, watery eyes and puffed out her cheeks deliberately:
"Hmph! For this reason..."
o(^｀)o
She jumped out of bed barefoot, her white toes stepping on the soft carpet, and rushed to the dining table like a proud kitten.
…
Lingling licked the last shrimp from her lips with reluctance, and her pink tongue swept across the cat at the corner of her mouth.
"Hmm? Lingling is awake?"
Jiang Shaoxu changed into a lavender dress and walked in slowly, her hair still damp from the shower.
"Hmph! If it weren't for some bad guy," Lingling muttered softly, poking the empty lunch box in revenge.
"Everyone is here, Lingling, tell me about the situation on Xu Island." Wang Feng said.
Lingling nodded, cleared her throat and said:
"Ahū Island was purchased by an international tycoon about twenty years ago and used as a breeding ground for featherless birds. Originally, they were intended to be provided to international mercenaries as mounts, but his breeding plan seems to have failed."
“It went bankrupt about eight years ago, and the government here didn’t accept management.”
"And those uncontrolled featherless birds gradually turned into wild demons, so much so that Asahi Island has now become almost a demon lair!"
Lingling opened her electronic map and saw that the mark for Xu Island was still "Domestication Base"!
"Private individuals engaging in large-scale domestication are simply courting death." Jiang Shaoxu crossed his arms and spoke with disdain.
Coming from a military family, she knew very well that the only place in the country that could legally carry out large-scale domestication was the Sky Eagle Base directly under the military.
Other private breeding farms must be located outside the security boundary for fear of trouble.
Although the domestication industry has incredible profits, the risks are also huge. Untamed monsters may attack at any time!
Just like in the original timeline, during the Hangzhou White Devil Eagle Rebellion, even the Sky Eagles trained by the military collectively disobeyed orders and had to be executed in the end.
Wang Feng rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully: "This information should not be considered confidential, right?"
"Of course, if we only look at the breeding base, it doesn't count." Lingling curled her lips, "But twenty years ago, the leaders of Wanggui Town invested heavily in Xu Island, hoping to use this project to turn Wanggui Town into a star city on the East Coast."
"As a result, after that international tycoon went bankrupt and fled, a huge hole was left in the local finances."
"In order to cover up this mess, they not only concealed the fact that Asahi Island was demonized, but also simply abandoned Asahi Island."
Jiang Shaoxu slammed the table and stood up. "These parasites! They disregard the safety of the entire city just for their own selfish interests!"
"Is there a list?" Wang Feng suddenly asked.
Lingling was stunned. "Those people have long been transferred to other places to continue their tyranny. Do you want to cause trouble for them?"
"Trouble?" Wang Feng sneered. "I hate bastards like these who leave a mess behind and then run away to continue causing trouble somewhere else. If we don't teach them a lesson, what will happen if everyone follows their example?"
"Count me in!" Jiang Shaoxu was eager to try.
"Don't make trouble." Wang Feng rubbed her head. "Your grandfather is the commander of the Forbidden Army. Don't cause trouble for him."
Politics is a very murky place.
He dared to intervene because of his absolute overwhelming strength, and he was prepared to use unconventional means, so he didn't need to worry about any human relationships.
But the Jiang family is different, as they have too many ties to the military family.
"Oh," Jiang Shaoxu responded with a pout.
"Let's go to Xu Island first." Wang Feng stood up and said.
"That's a wild demon's lair!" Lingling pulled up the data. "There seems to be a sub-monarch-level creature inside."
"Sub-monarch?" Wang Feng sneered, "He can be destroyed with a snap of a finger."
In his Shayuan, there were more than twenty sub-monarchs, not including small and medium monarchs...
Moreover, there are hundreds of undead who are close to the monarch and are in the advanced stage of leadership. As long as there are suitable undead resources, they can be advanced to the ranks of monarchs.
Therefore, ordinary monarchs nowadays are no longer in Wang Feng’s eyes, unless they have some special talents or abilities!
…
Wang Feng rented an old fishing boat at the Wanggui Town Pier. The words "Zheyu" were still visible on the mottled paint on the boat's hull.
Amid the roar of the engine, the three of them headed towards Asahi Island, 20 kilometers away.
An hour later, the outline of the island gradually emerged on the horizon.
The island is an irregular crescent, over ten kilometers in diameter. The central mountain range is lush and green, while the jagged beaches along the coast shimmer golden in the sun.
The strangest thing is that the whole island is eerily quiet, without even the sound of birds singing.
"It's so quiet." Jiang Shaoxu unconsciously clung to the side of the boat. "It doesn't look like there's any demon around."
“Crash!”
Suddenly, several splashes of water exploded on the sea surface!
Three blue-brown figures shot out like lightning, and the spikes on their wing membranes went straight for Jiang Shaoxu's throat!
"snort!"
Silver light flashed in Wang Feng's eyes, and the power of space instantly solidified the monsters.
They resemble manta rays, with a wingspan of nearly three meters and edges covered with dark blue barbs, like poisoned darts.
Jiang Shaoxu was sweating profusely, his voice trembling slightly: "What, what is this weird thing!"
"Featherless Bird!"
