Thinking that they were still in the spider's territory, Liu Nian chose to leave as soon as possible for her own safety.
It was getting dark, and Liu Nian glanced at his watch.
It looks like I won't be able to go home today; the road ahead leads to the Spider Demon's house.
Taking a detour would be too far, and besides, it hasn't been cleared by myself yet; who knows what I might run into?
Liu Nian sighed helplessly, realizing she had no choice but to spend the night in the residential compound.
Xiao Hei didn't sound the alarm, but he became increasingly worried.
I hurried towards the neighborhood with a heavy heart, my tense nerves unable to relax, and I didn't even have time to pay attention to what the scroll given by the task issuer was.
We drove in silence to the hotel in the neighborhood.
[What an interesting kid! You've got some talent. Looking forward to your future performances.]
Watching Liu Nian's departing figure, the task issuer's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he was no longer the dull-witted person he once was.
Meanwhile, inside the residential area, it was still a familiar location.
Two burly men wielding gaming weapons were guarding the room.
The three leaders inside the room were not as elegant as usual; they were discussing something with serious expressions.
"We've lost so many men, but we finally found out its lair, and you guys don't even dare to go?" Liu Ying was so agitated that his face turned red and his neck bulged as he roared at the two men opposite him.
“It’s not that I’m afraid to go, it’s that I need to prepare things beforehand. If it were urgently needed, it would have died countless times already,” Chen Ling said calmly.
"If you're in such a hurry to die, don't drag us both down with you."
Damn it, when those guys were still around, these two wouldn't dare utter a sound.
Now that they've suffered heavy losses, they dare to mock and ridicule them.
Very well, you all just wait!
You'll get what's coming to you sooner or later!
A fallen phoenix is no better than a chicken; Liu Ying finally understood this now.
They usually act all high and mighty, but when something goes wrong, they can search anywhere they want. Have they ever considered our feelings? Don't we have any dignity?
Now that Liu Ying's glory days are over, she is naturally subject to ridicule and sarcasm from the two of them.
"Fine, if you don't want to get involved, I'll just take my brothers and leave this damn place. I don't care who it is." Liu Ying said fiercely, with a "dead pig doesn't fear boiling water" expression.
Hmph, anyway, I'm not worried about food and drink now, so it's not a bad idea to find a small corner to develop my career.
Seeing that Liu Ying was showing signs of breaking up the group, the other two couldn't sit still any longer.
Although paying protection money is a bit of a hassle normally, this idiot is really capable when it comes to trouble!
If we really drive people away, and then some monster comes along next time, then we'll have to rely on our own people to fight.
How can this be!
"Hey, Brother Liu, calm down," Yan Kuan said, trying to mediate.
Thinking that all his businesses are in the community, he felt that leaving would be a major blow.
Chen Ling remained silent, which was unusual for her.
"How about this, let's each prepare our own manpower and probe its strengths and weaknesses," Yan Kuan said after considering it in his mind.
"Why don't we recruit some lone wolf players beforehand? There's strength in numbers." Chen Ling, as expected of someone in charge of entertainment venues, came up with a solution.
“That’s a good idea, I agree,” Yan Kuan chimed in.
"How will the cost be calculated?" Liu Ying asked directly, getting straight to the point.
"It's alright, Brother Liu, you don't need to worry about this. I'll take care of everything," Yan Kuan promised.
Hearing Yan Kuan's words, Liu Ying's brows relaxed. As long as she didn't have to pay for it herself, it was fine.
Chen Ling's eyes flickered, but she quickly returned to normal.
The three then discussed some operational details.
Fortunately, nothing happened along the way, and Liu Nian walked over to the high wall that was right in front of him.
It was still the same young duo. Seeing Liu Nian's attire, they opened the door and let him in without saying a word.
It was already night, and Liu Nian was strolling in the neighborhood.
Security in the community has been significantly strengthened, with security guards everywhere.
Liu Nian didn't dare linger and quickly walked towards the market.
The market is bustling with activity now, with many stalls that are not visible during the day now in front of the public.
Liu Nian looked around and found that the grenades and stun grenades he wanted to buy were not for sale.
Feeling a bit disheartened, he turned to leave.
At this moment, an old man with a hunched back approached Liu Nian and whispered, "Don't you like these junks? I might have something you want."
Liu Nian remained unmoved, first looking herself over to make sure no one recognized her before speaking: "You've got the wrong person."
Seeing Liu Nian's caution, the old man stopped keeping him in suspense: "This market was founded by my son, Yan Ming."
"I noticed you hadn't found anything you liked for a while, so I came to ask. I apologize for being a bit presumptuous!"
Seeing the old man's generous and magnanimous manner, Liu Nian felt a sense of goodwill towards him. Yan Kuan was one of the three major powers, so it wouldn't hurt to meet him.
"Then I'll have to trouble Elder Yan."
Seeing that Liu Nian was interested, Yan Ming politely declined and took the lead.
At this moment, Liu Nian noticed that there were some bodyguards or similar people mixed in with the crowd and following beside him.
Walking out of the market, the next step leads to the area of the residential community that Li Sha mentioned is not open to the public.
As Yan Ming approached a villa, the guards at the gate immediately opened the gate behind them.
Although the power had been out for several days, the villa was still brightly lit inside.
As Liu Nian walked into the villa, the opulent interior decoration left her speechless.
He felt that even Liu Laolao's visit to the Grand View Garden was nothing special.
Luckily, I was wearing a hat, so I wouldn't look like I'd never seen anything like this before.
Once inside the hall and the guests were seated, Yan Ming asked in a friendly manner, "What would you like, young man?"
"Flashbangs and hand grenades." Liu Nian thought for a moment, knowing that if they were to buy and sell them on the market, they would find out sooner or later, so he readily agreed.
"Hmm...how much do you need?" Yan Ming pondered for a moment before asking.
Liu Nian, unaware of the price, immediately opened his backpack: "This amount of medicine is enough to buy me."
Upon seeing so many medicines, the guards standing beside Yan Ming could no longer suppress their contempt.
Those who can get so many drugs now are either lucky or have real skills; those who can have their boss bring them back must be the latter.
It's not that the guards underestimated her; if Liu Nian looked in the mirror, she would find that her appearance was simply too sloppy.
Not only was he completely black, but he also had a cut on his chest.
At first glance, he looks exactly like a traveling beggar!
Yan Ming summoned a guard and whispered in his ear, "Go to the storeroom..."
Upon hearing this, the guard turned and left the hall.
Liu Nian didn't listen carefully; he kept his eyes down and his mind focused.
The two then chatted about everyday things, mostly Yan Ming doing the talking.
Just then, someone pushed the door open and came in.
It was the old man's son, Yan Kuan, the owner of the market!
