Chapter 627: 627
This was the only restaurant in Chaos City and one of the three tallest buildings in the city . It had nine floors and was three hundred meters wide . There was no way it could compare to the Immortal Intoxication Building .
But in this desolate place, it appeared exceptionally grand and luxurious . A refined and courteous attendant brought Long Chen and the others to the top floor .
Currently, it was just a few hours from the night . It wasn’t really dinnertime yet, and so this entire floor was empty .
“Your restaurant doesn’t seem very popular . How do you manage to stay in business?” asked Guo Ran .
“This is the only restaurant in Chaos City . The people who come here mostly only come to entertain guests . So we don’t have that many customers normally . ” The attendant smiled .
“Bring us a feast and some wine . ” Long Chen found a table beside the window from which they could overlook Chaos City .
“Here we have three kinds of preset feasts . Which one did you want?”
“Choose the best one . ” Long Chen waved his hand .
“Very well . ”
The attendant was pleasantly surprised . These people didn’t have high cultivation bases, but they spent money so extravagantly .
The highest class preset meal here cost eighteen middle grade spirit stones . As the attendant for them, he would get three thousand ordinary spirit stones for this .
A short while later, many delicacies were placed on the table . It went without saying that this restaurant’s owner truly did know what quality was . These dishes were all extremely sumptuous .
Other than the fine food, there were also three large jugs of excellent wine . But because they still had things to do, they didn’t drink that much .
After eating, Long Chen suddenly asked the attendant, “How long have you lived in Chaos City?”
“Eighteen years,” he replied cautiously .
“For a mid Meridian Opening cultivator to still be alive after eighteen years in Chaos City is quite amazing,” said Long Chen .
“This little one normally only stays in the restaurant . If I ever went outside, I’d have long since died,” laughed the attendant .
“Then since you’ve been here for so long, you should know many things that other people don’t, right? I’ll give you an opportunity . If you manage to grab onto it, you won’t need to be a waiter in this restaurant . I’ll give you enough wealth for you to find somewhere to pass the rest of your life in peace .
“With your talent, it would be very difficult to reach the Xiantian realm . But I can let you achieve that dream,” said Long Chen lightly .
“Guest… you… you’re joking . ”
“Whether I’m joking or not is something you can decide for yourself . If you feel like it’s a joke, then it’s a joke . If you feel like it’s serious, then it’s serious . ”
Long Chen smiled and threw a ring over to that person . This was the spatial ring of one of the Corrupt experts . Long Chen had already gone through and found nothing he needed . There was merely one Xiantian weapon, some pills, cultivation techniques, and a pile of spirit stones . In total, they would only worth a few hundred middle grade spirit stones .
To Long Chen, that was nothing . But for this attendant, it was an enormous wealth .
“If your answers satisfy me, I will also give you a Heaven Advancing Pill . ” Long Chen tossed out another huge blow .
The attendant gulped down his saliva . Long Chen could hear his heart pounding .
The attendant placed the ring on the table and carefully asked, “What do you want to know?”
Long Chen’s words were clear: he would only get a reward if his answers satisfied Long Chen . That ring was not his yet .
Long Chen smiled . He liked dealing with smart people . “I want to know many things . I want to know everything you know about Chaos City . But don’t worry, even if you don’t know what I want to know, I will still give you a reward . ”
Money was always the greatest motivation . The attendant told Long Chen everything he knew .
Other than the Righteous and Corrupt paths, Chaos City had two other powers present . One of those was the master of the restaurant . But the restaurant’s master was extremely mysterious . In his eighteen years here, he hadn’t seen him once . His guess was that this restaurant was just a minor business for him, and he wasn’t personally in charge of it .
However, this restaurant’s master was a bit frightening . Neither the Righteous or Corrupt paths dared make any trouble here .
There was no way for a small attendant to learn about the master’s background . As for the other power, it was the boss of the brothel and gambling house .
Since ancient times, gambling houses had never been far from brothels . The boss of these two businesses was also extremely powerful . The majority of his customers were from the Corrupt path .
But even these normally fierce Corrupt experts would become extremely obedient in the brothel and gambling house . Even if someone did cause a disturbance, it would be on a very small scale .
The attendant had personally seen someone from the gambling house kill someone from the Corrupt path who had caused trouble . But the Corrupt experts had simply taken away that person’s corpse without saying a word .
The attendant also told Long Chen an extremely important secret: the boss of the brothel and gambling house was a half-step Sea Expansion expert .
This boss had once entertained some guests here . It was unknown whether he had drunk too much, but he had said that the power behind him was the Pill Tower’s Huo family .
Hearing that, Long Chen was truly startled . The Pill Tower’s Huo family actually had a connection here?
But then thinking about it, he thought it was more likely this person was just intentionally trying to intimidate others . Most likely, he had exaggerated his relationship with the Pill Tower in order to protect his business .
From their current position in the restaurant, they could see two very luxurious buildings . They were a brothel and a gambling house .
There was no nameplate declaring what to call them . But in Chaos City, there was no one who didn’t know those two buildings .
Some runaways and even some minor workers often liked to drink themselves into a stupor there . The main thing was that those were the safest places in Chaos City .
Within the chaos region, it was possible for people to lose their lives at any moment . But with the mines here, people could make a great deal of money .
A portion of the people would go there in an attempt to get more money, getting more cultivation resources for themselves .
The majority of these people only had average talent . Most of them were just waiting to die here, and so when they got their salaries, they came here to wildly spend their money, entering a drunken state to gamble and enjoy other pleasures . The attendant said that the gambling house and brothel made a shocking amount of money .
After this, Long Chen felt like he really had gained quite a bit from this meal . He asked, “Then let me ask you one last question . If you can answer, I’ll immediately give you what I promised . ”
“Please ask . ”
“The Bloodkill Hall’s stronghold should also be in Chaos City, correct? Where is it?” This was Long Chen’s main goal in coming here .
Long Chen had investigated the Bloodkill Hall before . He knew that they had a stronghold to accept missions here .
The Bloodkill Hall’s organization was mysterious, and most of its strongholds were completely hidden . No one knew where they were . But there was one known stronghold in Chaos City . That was because the situation here was special .
After being attacked by the Bloodkill Hall for so many times, Long Chen had grown tired . He was not someone who would be beaten and not fight back . This time, he was preparing to give the Bloodkill Hall a ruthless blow . If they came out to play, then they sooner or later would have to pay a price .
Looking in the direction the attendant pointed, Long Chen saw a strange building . It looked like a skull that had been half buried . It was an extremely bright white color and easy to recognize .
“Umm… How about I pay for this meal?” Seeing the immense amount of wealth in the ring as well as the Heaven Advancing Pill, the attendant was incomparably grateful . He quickly offered to pay .
“It’s fine . You deserve that . What you should be thinking about right now is how you’re going to get out of the chaos region alive . Try to be a bit more low-key . ” Long Chen threw out eighteen spirit stones and left the restaurant .
Guo Ran whispered, “Boss, why didn’t you let sister-in-law Wan-er come with us this time? It would be nice to have such a powerful helper . ”
“Killing people like this isn’t suitable for them . Even though they’re willing to do it, they don’t like it . What, are you getting afraid?” asked Long Chen .
“It’s not fear, but more that I feel like the Bloodkill Hall is difficult to deal with . The slightest slip can cause big problems,” said Guo Ran .
“You’re very correct . As specialized assassins, the Bloodkill Hall’s people are all proficient in killing people in a way that’s impossible to guard against . But you should all remember, the reason an expert can become an expert isn’t just because they’re strong . They also require a strong heart . That heart can be conceited or arrogant, but it can’t be unsure . Your actual strength surpasses your imagination . So no matter what kind of enemies you face, you have to have confidence . You can’t let the pressure get to you just because they’re assassins . The point of a battle is to kill your enemies . You are also killers, so what do you need to be afraid of? You’ve probably killed more people than they ever have,” said Long Chen .
“Boss, that does sound a bit reasonable . But then, boss, is the real reason you didn’t bring sister-in-law Wan-er because you’re afraid of being outshone by her? The other brothers have also asked which one of you are stronger,” asked Guo Ran .
Others weren’t aware that Tang Wan-er had become a Celestial, but the Dragonblood Legion’s captains had been told by Long Chen .
“You really care about a lot of nonsense . If you have that much energy, then focus more on how you’re going to kill your enemies,” said Long Chen .
“Hehe, I understand, I understand . ” Guo Ran nodded .
“Tch, what do you understand?” Long Chen was speechless . This little fellow really never thought about proper things .
“Hehe, we’ve arrived . You guys guard the door and keep watch over all sides . Kill any rabbits that slip away . As for Guo Ran, if you don’t have to, then don’t attack . I’ll go in first . ”
Long Chen stepped into the entrance of the Bloodkill Hall’s stronghold . That entrance seemed like the mouth of a skull, appearing incredibly sinister . But today, it was welcoming the arrival of a true killing god .
