Chapter 108: Let's Buy a Building

Beyond the high-quality loot gained from the offensive, the defense also reaped great rewards by withstanding the largest assault ever faced by Dragon City.

Lu Yibai’s fatigue lasted only briefly; now he was resting against the headboard, managing a faint smile when he saw someone enter.

Meanwhile, Ye Shimeng’s chest heaved with anger, and in the next moment, she directly called the Human Resources department.

However, she didn’t know how to explain to Ying Chu without revealing that the doctor was formidable and had powerful backing.

Qi Jun, drawing on his previous life’s investigative experience, instinctively sensed something amiss. After examining the footprints, he concluded that those who kidnapped the clan elder and Yun Fei intended to mislead them deliberately.

Xiao Qiongying ignored Gu You’an’s words and, that very afternoon, took her homemade soup to Yihe.

“According to the laws of the Great Qin, assaulting officials and soldiers in public is unacceptable behavior.”

A glance at the exchange revealed that the prices of Tuo wood and other comparable timber materials had indeed risen.

Yu Li rolled her eyes. How could Yu Haitang be so naive as to believe Xu Damao’s words?

Because of this, Mo Beiyu had to once again order all attendants to keep their mouths shut and ensure their true identities remained secret.

Consort Shu offered no further explanation, simply reassuring her not to worry, as everything would fall into place naturally.

O’Neal was the first to call, adopting the tone of a seasoned elder to comment on Sun Zhuo’s showy moves that day, praising him for fully inheriting O’Neal’s style and declaring that the NBA’s entertainment value was now in Sun Zhuo’s hands.

“In the end, the uncle noticed, sniff sniff, he looked at me with eyes like a wolf, and then…” Chen Nuan's voice trailed off, her expression turning strange.

After all, the wealthy now wished to leave this world clutching a treasure, not a coin worth mere cents.

Huo Zhijian had held a high position for a long time, especially after the apocalypse, becoming one of the base’s key leaders. Few could keep him waiting.

Sun Zhuo intercepted the ball on the passing route, sensing Prince’s appearance and immediately snatching it away.

In contrast, yesterday, Sheng Ran’er was seen unharmed outside the pharmacy, while those he had bribed with everyone’s money were now unreachable.

The winnings were sufficient to repay the gambler at the door, but Zhao Hao showed no intention of stopping, and naturally, Zheng Feng was even less willing to let him quit.

With the strong push from Luo Yunyi and Wu Jiang, the public had been passively subjected to labor assignments from the very first day of moving into the warm shelters.

The dragon corpse before them was enormous, its former strength surely earth-shattering and invincible.

Upon hearing Wu Bingguo’s reply, Lu Zhongqi knew resistance was futile. Ignoring the panic of the other provincial officials, he returned alone to his room to await the final moment.

Furthermore, few beings in the universe comprehend the laws of space, and those reaching the level of Xue Yue were even rarer.

A flash of inspiration crossed Wang Fen’s mind: such a fish could sell for tens of thousands, and despite the shabby décor, it attracted many customers simply because this was the only place to buy that fish, and its taste was exceptional. The unscrupulous fishing boat owner’s business acumen opened a door in Wang Fen’s mind.

The courtyard where the contestants stayed was modest in size. After a few steps, he reached the door, but before knocking, he overheard voices inside.

From the moment he first saw Sun Yumei last night, Zhuo Yang suddenly realized that she had long since taken deep root in his heart—deep, profoundly so.

She understood how important keeping promises was to Lei Gang, how badly Liu Tian longed to defeat the Sword Saint, and knew Liu Tian’s pride was immense—if he wasn’t the academy’s top student, he certainly wouldn’t have entered the Heroic Tournament.

With that thought, the two young champions of the Dayu Dynasty both flickered in their gaze, showing signs of hesitation.

He weighed the item in his hand; its balance was perfect, it should handle smoothly, and it looked worth several hundred. But when he studied the blade closely, he was utterly shocked.

The “Heavenly Link” technique he created remains regarded as the most enigmatic and challenging secret skill for players to master.

The Soul Sovereign, seeing Xiao Yan’s recovery from despair, nodded silently, knowing he had pulled himself back from the depths.

The man in black was stunned. After staring at the Sixth Elder and Xue Ling for several seconds and his mind spinning, he quickly answered, “Yes!” and retreated from the living room.

“This student’s constitution is truly excellent. Rest assured, he is no longer in danger and is currently recuperating. Would you like to speak with him?” asked Doctor Xian Luo.

He understood that since the other party had entrusted the child to him, there was no need to seize him back.

In such circumstances, mercenaries who dared to venture into the Spirit Forest were never weak; otherwise, survival alone would be a blessing, let alone any gain.

Strangely, Supervisor Liu seemed to have lost his courage to bully them overnight. Apart from his still sharp tongue, everything else had improved.

Many magical beasts were caught off guard by the situation; some even collided headlong with thick branches. Though not severely injured, they were dazed and staggered for a long time before regaining composure.

Everyone fled in panic, following Jin Ling’er forward. Of the three connected platforms ahead, only the middle one linked safely to the snowy ground beneath. The other two were treacherous—one a bottomless abyss, the other filled with seawater.

Are humans truly fragile? Sometimes, a shallow pool can claim a life, let alone the endless ocean. Yet he understood that falling into the sea was not necessarily a dead end, as Silver Star’s elites underwent underwater training.

Scanning the area, Guo Lin spotted the corpse of a Guo family elite who had once competed in the finals with Guo Yuhao. He lay on his back, his chest pierced by a sharp weapon, the wound so large that his internal organs were visible. His eyes remained open, death filled with deep resentment.
