Chapter 457 - : Offending Someone Powerful



Chapter 457: Offending Someone Powerful

“More clues?”

Meng Chao thought, ‘I can’t predict the future, you know? How would I know which material warehouse Ning Lang and his companions are going to rob?’

But when he thought about it carefully, he found that he could actually minimize the area of search by using the process of elimination.

First, he excluded the warehouses belonging to the Supernatural Tower, Red Dragon Army, and the four great research centers.

The reason for it was simple. Those raw materials warehouses belonged to the government, so their defenses would be tight. There would be plenty of elites and really good security systems.

It was most likely that Ning Lang and his companions were normal people. Even if they ate the Deification Capsules and gained superhuman powers for a short while, they would still be unable to win against veteran superhumans.

If there were three or more superhumans who were above one-star in the warehouse, the group would have a hard time succeeding.

But even if they managed to succeed, they would be hunted down at full force by the government, so they would not be able to run free for long.

The same logic applied to the materials warehouses of the nine great families, Dragon City University, and the alliance of the five universities. They could be excluded as well.

The super forces that ruled their own industries were also existences that Ning Lang could not afford to offend.

But Meng Chao did not think that Ning Lang would choose any random, small industry’s materials warehouse either.

Based on the scraps of paper, the warehouse was pretty large.

Besides, when it came to a robbery, they had to choose a fat pig so that they could steal to their hearts’ content.

Otherwise, once they cleared their debt, they would not have any money left to let their families live good lives.

They needed a large warehouse that had a lot of crystals and monster materials, relatively lax defenses, and its guards had to be weak as well. There were not many warehouses, or rather, industries that fulfilled these two completely different criteria at the same time.

Meng Chao told Shen Yupeng his thoughts. Then, he said, “I think that Ning Lang is targeting a new industry that is developing rapidly and is a nouveau riche who just rose to power over the past few years. That industry has some money, but hasn’t yet increased its fighting strength and awareness. Basically, it’s rich, but dumb. Big Brother Peng, please choose the industries based on this train of thought, and I think you’ll definitely find your target.”

“Alright. Give me five minutes.” Shen Yupeng hung up.

Reality showed that when it came to specialized fields, one had to hire specialists to do it.

After just three minutes, Shen Yupeng called him back.

“I did as you asked and chose the industries that are rich but dumb and are owned by the nouveau riche. We also compared the pictures you sent to the building blueprints in the database, and we did come up with something,” Shen Yupeng said. “And the truth is, you’re right. The materials warehouse that Ning Lang is prepared to rob is a new industry called Superstar.”

Meng Chao smiled. “I know, right?” But he was dumbfounded the next moment. “WHAT?!”

“Makes sense, doesn’t it?” Shen Yupeng said calmly. “You know, there hasn’t been any other industry in Dragon City that is as much of a nouveau riche as Superstar in the past year.”

Meng Chao cussed really viciously.

‘You’re actually stomping on MY tail?! You’re robbing ME?!’

But when he thought about it carefully, it made sense.

Over the past year, after buying over Prosperous and Spirit Creation Creatures, Superstar had grown bigger at a rapid pace, and it was now in control of most of the middle-grade and low-end harvesting jobs in Dragon City.

To provide different gene medicine to the Ultimate Style practitioners and the Broken Star Club members and to provide raw materials to the research team in Spirit Creation Creatures, Superstar gathered a large amount of high-grade crystals and Nightmarish Beasts’ flesh and blood in its warehouse.

To a certain extent, Superstar’s raw material warehouse was even more valuable than the safes in the banks.

And Superstar was indeed a nouveau riche that had an endless amount of wealth. Yet the only person who could be considered a powerful fighter in the company was Meng Chao himself.

However, Meng Chao paid most of his attention to Agricultural University, the Broken Star Club, Blue Home, the abnormal beast research department, and other places. Recently, he had also gone to train in the wild.

Forget about the security system in the company, he did not even know how many raw materials warehouses Superstar had, because it was developing too quickly!

Now that he thought about it, Qin Hu was in charge of Superstar’s security system. He had used his connections to find a group of retired hunters to be the company’s guards.

But if hunters had real skill, none of them would want to go to Superstar to be security guards!

Those who were willing to go were all in their seventies and eighties, sick of risking their lives, and had gone back to Dragon City to live out their retirement years.

That, or they were heavily injured, had dropped in their cultivation realms, or were no longer suited for the high-intensity life of swinging their weapons around.

Even so, Qin Hu might still be unable to have each warehouse equipped with two of these old or handicapped superhumans to serve as security guards with the rate of their development.

But there was no way around it. Before this, Meng Chao never expected that Superstar would end up as a target for others!

“I was too careless!” Meng Chao slapped his head and felt really regretful.

“Since we’ve found the target, it’ll be easy now. I’ll bring a squad over right now.”

While saying that, Shen Yupeng sent the precise location of the warehouse to Meng Chao.

“I’ll get there immediately!” Meng Chao read the map and found that Shen Yupeng was still a distance away from this particular materials warehouse that belonged to Superstar.

Meng Chao himself was closer to it.

But that made sense since Ning Lang had chosen to be here. It was because the place was well-hidden, but also quite close to the target, which made it easy for them to often go and observe the site and search for openings.

Meng Chao immediately ran.

On his way, he called his dad. “Dad, it’s me. Did we buy a new warehouse at Five Blessings Street? Anyway—”

It was quiet on Five Blessings Street. No pedestrians, cars, or buses were on the empty road.

Occasionally, some construction vehicles, garbage trucks, or large trucks passed by. Their crystal engines roared and tore through the silence of the night.

Ning Lang lurked in the bush by the road and used his binoculars to stare at the end of the road. He seemed to be waiting for a certain truck to appear.

By his side, his two companions were so nervous that their legs trembled and their teeth clattered. They tried to endure it, but they could not, so one of them whispered, “Big Brother Wolf, are we… are we really doing it?”

“Duh.”

Ning Lang stared at his two companions coldly with a sharp gaze.

He had originally been a very handsome young man. His appearance had even been quite feminine.

But the intersecting scars left by knives caused his lips to turn up, which revealed two sharp canines. It destroyed his handsome face, causing him to constantly look as if he was gritting his teeth.

“I was the one who killed just now, but you two have blood on your bodies too. Do you think that you have any way out of the situation now?” Ning Lang said coldly. “Wake up, we have no other path now. It’s only by getting those monster materials, high-grade crystals, and gene medicine that we can solve all our problems!”

“But…” His two other companions were still hesitant.

“No buts!” Ning Lang drew closer to them. He stared at his two companions with bloodshot eyes. Each of his scars squirmed as if they were alive. He hissed, “These crystals, monster materials, and gene medicine are what we deserve! We’ve developed the land for so long in the wild, killed so many damn insects and monsters, and saw so many of our friends die, but we ended up with nothing. Is that fair?

“We’re not stealing. We’re just getting back what we deserve. With the large number of scars we have, dying once in the wild, suffering so much while training, and the courage to risk our lives, it’s only fair that we get this bit of cultivation resources!”

“I-I’m saying that this is Superstar’s warehouse. Superstar’s Meng Chao is rumored to be a ruthless person who has a really twisted mindset. He loves cutting monsters into bits and eating them raw. He doesn’t even cook them,” one of his companions said in a quivering voice. “We can’t afford to offend such a lunatic.”

Ning Lang snorted coldly. “No matter how strong Meng Chao is, as long as we act swiftly and don’t leave any traces behind, no one will know that we did it.”

“What about the Six Knife Scars?” His other companion gulped. “Many people saw him come to collect his debt from us, but we killed him under the trash site. Even though the others might not know about this, it’s still a fact that they mysteriously disappeared. His boss won’t let us go.

“Besides, even if we really do manage to steal a large number of high-grade crystals and monster materials, we can’t just take them to return our debts. If we did, everyone would know that we robbed the warehouse.”

“Then… we won’t pay off the debts.” A red light flashed in Ning Lang’s eyes. He cackled viciously. “Who said that we’re going to pay off our debts after we get so many cultivation resources? If we use those cultivation resources for ourselves, our strengths will definitely reach a higher level. At that time, we’ll kill the Six Knife Scars’ boss and those damn debt collectors. That will do.”

His two companions shuddered.

Clearly, Ning Lang’s suggestion was not within their plans.

“That’s…”

One of his companions was about to say that what he said was different from what they planned, but Ning Lang suddenly narrowed his eyes and said softly, “Quiet, it’s here!”

Not far in the distance, a refrigerated truck with the words “Superstar Resource” painted on it drove over.

Ning Lang flipped his palm over, and three green Deification Capsules appeared on his palm.

Compared to the Deification Capsules Meng Chao saw in the developing land, the three capsules in his hand were larger, greener, and sparkled more. They looked even more enigmatic.

Fear appeared on the two companions’ faces.

But uncontrollable greed also flashed in their eyes.

“Don’t worry, the Deification Capsules may be dangerous, but their main danger is in draining the body of strength. If you don’t replenish spirit energy in time, your cells’ potential will be completely wrung out and you’ll die of fatigue,” Ning Land said with a cold sneer. “The second generation capsule contains a unique slow releasing mechanism.

“It can last longer, and the power it gives us is stabler and more controllable. You just need to replenish yourself with a large amount of monster flesh, gene medicine, and high-calorie nutritional fluid before you’re drained. Then, you’ll be fine.

“Think of our friends. So many of them died in the wild to protect us and let us retreat. We’re the survivors, we’re the wandering ghosts in the mortal world, yet do you want to say that we shouldn’t even take this bit of risk?”
