Chapter 619 Sin City
"Oh? The captain has connections in the Cloud Ruins Holy Land?"
Xiao Weiqing feigned curiosity and asked, "In the Southern Region, no one would be uninterested in hearing about the Cloud Ruins Holy Land."
"Brother Qin, you may not know this, but the captain was once a genius of the third level of the Cloud Ruins Holy Land, but he later withdrew from the competition."
"I see."
Bizi shook his head and waved his hand, "Not worth mentioning, just a third-level expert, not even a genius."
"If I reach the fourth level, I'll brag about it to you."
"Let's go back to the outpost. Our squadron has had a battle today, and we'll have a rest tomorrow. I'll take you to City 251 to enjoy yourselves."
Qi Wei hurriedly asked, "Really? Captain, are you paying?"
"Of course I pay!"
"It's as if you bought it before."
Bizi laughed and scolded.
Xiao Weiqing asked:
"Will the squadron get a day off after the big battle?"
Bizi looked at Qiao Wei, "Didn't you tell Qin Weixiao?"
Qiao Wei said, "Captain, there's no time! We didn't even have time to collect our combat uniforms before the bugle sounded, so we came to find you right away."
"Too."
Bizi nodded slightly when he saw that Xiao Weiqing had not changed his clothes.
"Brother Qin, let me answer your question first. This is not a major battle; it's just a small-scale skirmish at most."
"A real major battle usually involves dozens or even hundreds of outposts being mobilized at the same time, and it happens every few months. The last one was a month ago, when Mupan fought to the death in that battle."
Mupan was Biz's former bodyguard, and he has already died in battle.
Bizi nodded, feeling somewhat downcast. Mu Pan had followed him for several years, but he never expected that he would still not escape the fate of dying on the battlefield.
"In fact, there are even larger-scale wars that directly involve fortresses, with one or several fortresses being mobilized."
"However, wars of this scale are rare. The most recent one was ten years ago. I joined the Xuanqiong Battlefield after that war. When I first arrived here, the starry sky was dyed red," Bizi recalled.
Qiao Wei continued, "Brother Qin, the larger the scale of the battle, the longer the rest period, up to a month. However, if the rotations can't keep up, you'll still have to step in."
"clear."
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore, let's go back first."
......
251 outpost.
"Brother Qin, come on, I'll take you to your lodgings, then we'll wash up and go into the city with Bizi."
"us?"
Xiao Weiqing frowned and glanced at Qi Wei.
"Uh...no, you wash yours, and I'll wash mine."
Qi Wei quickly changed his tune.
The two walked to a row of houses.
"Brother Qin, you can choose for yourself. Anything that no one lives in is fine. They're all the same, two-story villas, not very big."
"This is a starfield battlefield. Even the captain's accommodations aren't much better than ours. Just make do."
"fine."
Why would Xiao Weiqing care about that? It was just a place to rest anyway.
See you in Yingkou later.
"it is good."
Xiao Weiqing nodded and entered a nearby empty building.
After washing up, I went to Yingkou to wait.
Ten minutes later.
Bitz arrived with three other guards.
"Qin Weixiao, we haven't met yet. My name is Jin Qi."
"My name is Huo Yue."
Bitz's other two bodyguards introduced themselves, saying that the three of them had actually met before on the battlefield.
Jin Qi is a bald, towering man who stands 2.5 meters tall.
Huo Yue was a woman with short hair and a purple crescent mark on the skin exposed on her shoulder.
Both of them were at the peak of the Star Lord realm, with strength similar to Qi Wei's, or even slightly higher.
Hello.
"Walk."
"Go to Chunfeng Tower." Bizi waved his hand.
"Spring Breeze Pavilion? What are we waiting for!"
Qi Wei, Jin Qi, and Huo Yue all had their eyes light up.
The group took off and flew towards the city.
......
within the city.
The five walked along the wide street. Xiao Weiqing looked at the bustling scene around him and wondered if he had come to the wrong place, as it was not quite what he had expected.
"Brother Qin, don't you feel something's different?"
"Yeah, a little."
Qi Wei laughed heartily.
"When I first came here, I also found it unbelievable that the city next to the military camp was so prosperous and extravagant."
"You'll get used to it in a few years. Every time you fight with the demons, walking on the edge of life and death, you have to vent your frustration."
Xiao Weiqing remained silent, observing his surroundings in quiet contemplation.
"roll!"
Sudden.
A soldier in combat uniform was punching and kicking a passerby who was blocking his way. The blows were very heavy, and Xiao Weiqing could tell that the person being beaten was only at the fourth level of strength.
"You bastard, bah!"
The soldiers stopped beating the man after they had vented their anger. The man was barely alive, and his companions carried him away after the soldiers left.
Seeing that the people around him seemed unsurprised, including Bi Zi and the others, Xiao Weiqing asked:
"Wasn't that a bit much? Was no one going to do anything about it?"
Qi Wei laughed and said, "Brother Qin, don't feel sorry for them. In this city, ninety percent of the people are guilty."
"Are they all guilty?"
"That's right. Either the person is guilty, or their family is guilty, and it's an extremely heinous crime. At best, it's selling contraband; at worst, it's colluding with foreign races and causing irreparable damage to the human race. In any case, every single one of them deserves to die."
"The main culprits have all been exterminated, while the accomplices, their families, and the direct beneficiaries have been sent here to atone for their sins. Their only value is to serve us who have entered the city."
"Even if that man had been killed, the soldier would at most have been reprimanded."
Xiao Weiqing nodded slightly. "How do you distinguish between those people?"
"They have energy-binding devices on their wrists, and they can't be covered up at any time or in any place."
Upon hearing this...
Xiao Weiqing looked around and found that there were very few people without any restrictions.
"arrive."
"Let's go in."
Bizi led the four people to the entrance of Chunfenglou, a restaurant that looked very high-end from the outside.
but.
When Xiao Weiqing went inside, he realized he was wrong, terribly wrong.
Lobby.
Amidst the bright lights and revelry, many people were dancing in disheveled attire.
"Hey, Captain Biz, it's been so long! Come on upstairs, come on upstairs."
A woman walked towards them, swaying her hips and pressing herself against Biz. Judging from the source energy restrictions on her hands, it was clear that the woman was also a sinner.
Bizi laughed, put his arm around the woman, and rubbed her body as they went upstairs.
Xiao Weiqing finally understood why Qi Wei and Jin Qi had been so excited about going to Chunfeng Tower.
Seeing that Huo Yue had already gone upstairs, Xiao Weiqing had no choice but to follow. When they reached the fourth floor, they heard Bi Zi's scolding voice.
"Adler, we were here first!"
