Ace of the Dragon Division Chapter 570 - Endless Chaos

Chapter 570: Endless Chaos (Part One)

Xu Cheng’s heart ached for himself. He was even willing to let them hide under his wings for free, yet no one took the offer.

d.a.m.n, it was already rare that he would be a saint once in a few years and want to do some charity work, yet no one accepted his gesture.

What shattered his heart even more was that those guys all came to ask if they were the Falcon Clan.

If he had known this, he would have already hung the Falcon Clan’s boss’s head at the gate to let the visitors see.

During this season where the entire Land of Mercenaries had put down old grudges to work together, no one came to them to request a coalition. Even when the pa.s.sersby came to ask for water, they wouldn’t forget to warn them, “The other small groups are already out there begging for big groups to take them in, you guys have such a small team and you are still not out there looking for someone to take you guys under their wing? That’s like committing suicide! After the special forces compet.i.tion comes in a week, you will know that you screwed up.”

With the compet.i.tion near, Xu Cheng felt that he must take care of the big bag of raw diamonds that they had already dug up. Otherwise, if more people saw it and the news got out, then the diamond mine wouldn’t be safe anymore.

“I will leave for three days. Luo Yi, Li Wei, you guys guard this place well.” Xu Cheng put the big bag of diamonds over his shoulder and said to his subordinates, “Right now, we still can’t s.h.i.+p these out, so I have to personally take these diamonds out and handle it. You guys be careful.”

Luo Yi nodded. “Big Brother Cheng, are you going to be okay alone?”

Mario was also a bit worried. “Big Brother Cheng, can you make it out? Right now it’s almost the ‘winter’ season, people in this land will do anything in order to store food and firearms to survive. There will be psychos everywhere.”

He didn’t want the boss to be under too much risk. After all, they had finally found a boss they could rely on, and with Xu Cheng, the Deviant Corp would definitely keep on climbing up the ladder.

But, Xu Cheng already made up his mind. It was best to handle this batch of diamonds fast, or with the number of people in the city, it was possible for the news to get out and draw unnecessary attention.

The others didn’t insist since he was the boss after all.

Xu Cheng drove a pickup truck, and the raw diamonds were in a big bag and weighed about 50 pounds. With one hand holding the cigarette and one hand on the wheel, he drove towards the border. With nostalgic rock music playing, he felt the drive was quite comfortable with the wind blowing past.

He would see other cars or vehicle fleets driving past him. Just like what Mario told him earlier, everyone was preparing for the ‘winter’ right now, traveling anxiously trying to find partners. After all, this compet.i.tion was no joke, and when those big nations trained their soldiers in this land, even with mercenaries dying, the audience from around the world wouldn’t feel sad over it nor condemn the other countries. After all, this was just a place of exile.

And of course, at a place of exile like this, there would be all kinds of people.

Xu Cheng went to a supermarket in a neutral city. When buying soda, he saw quite a few thieves stealing things in a store, and Xu Cheng just went on to mind his own business. This was just how this land was, there would even sc.u.mmier people that would hire prost.i.tutes here and instead of paying the prost.i.tutes after, they would rob the prost.i.tutes.

And the prost.i.tutes would also have to pay the neutral city to receive protection and shelter.

After walking out of the supermarket, Xu Cheng saw a couple of people fighting violently on the streets. It was also a common scene.

This was the chaotic Land of Mercenaries. Xu Cheng didn’t exactly love it, but he was also not disgusted by it. In his words, there weren’t many schemes or politics, as everyone just spoke with the size of their fists, which determined their tone and volume.

As soon as he came out of the supermarket, he encountered something that put him between laughter and tears. His car got stolen.

“Great!” Xu Cheng had to compliment this kind of talent. He was just in the store for a quick grab of a drink, and within 2 minutes, his car was gone.

Nice!

This was very “Land of Mercenaries”-like!

Xu Cheng underestimated the value of his car in a land like this. It was worth at least a hundred thousand here, and there was a big difference between owning and not owning a car. Usually only mercenary groups had cars, and the locals and independent guys obviously wouldn’t have the money to afford it and had to resort to stealing.

But, what puzzled him even more was that he parked his car at the gas station to be refueled, and with the boss there watching, how could his truck still be stolen?

“Where’s my car? Someone stole it and you didn’t even warn me?”

The big chubby dude at the gas station raised his eyebrows and said, “Who knows. I thought you guys were friends. Want me to pull out the surveillance footage for you?”

“No need.” Xu Cheng turned around and activated his penetrating vision to look for his car. As long as the car was still within 3 kilometers of him, he could see it.

It had only been two minutes from when he stepped into the store, so with his slow-azz pickup truck traveling in the city, the car shouldn’t be out of the 1-kilometer range yet.

Xu Cheng quickly found his car heading in the west direction, and he immediately ran after it.

The car thief happily counted the cash from selling the truck and put it into his wallet and then into his pocket. When he walked past Xu Cheng, Xu Cheng’s hand already reached into his pocket and got the wallet.

After walking out a dozen meters, the car thief finally found out that his wallet was no longer with him.

His face changed, and when he recalled what just happened, he immediately grew alert to the person that had just walked past him and lightly b.u.mped him on the shoulder.

He directly turned around and chased.

Xu Cheng came to a repair shop. Throwing the car thief’s wallet over onto the counter, he said, “That truck just now is no longer up for sale.”

The several big burly guys that were working on inspecting the car stopped their actions. They came over and checked the wallet, and it was indeed the amount the car thief just received from selling the stolen truck.

“Do you know the rules here? We aren’t a p.a.w.n shop here. You can’t redeem the things you sell.”

Xu Cheng pointed at the 30K dollars in the wallet and said, “The market price is at least 80 to 90K, isn’t 30K a bit too little?”

“30K is the market price for this car. If you don’t believe it, you can go on GM’s website and check,” the guys at the car shop said shamelessly.

“I’m talking about the Land of Mercenaries’ market price!” Xu Cheng reminded them.

“Market price?” Someone snorted and replied, “Then that will depend on who you are selling it to. Do you know which mercenary clan we are from?”

Then, they all revealed the tattoo on their arms.

Cobra.

The 8th Mercenary Group in the world!

“Let me tell you, if this wasn’t the neutral zone, not to mention giving you money, what would you do even if we rob your car and not give you a cent? Just hurry up and take the money and scram. The truce zone doesn’t allow gun-firing, but it doesn’t prohibit using fists. Before you ruin our mood, just get the fack out of our face.”

Xu Cheng thought, Fine, since this is the neutral zone, I probably shouldn’t cause a big commotion and attract other people’s attention.

He would just stalk these [email protected] until they were out of the neutral zone, and he would make them dead snakes.

Xu Cheng walked past them, opened the driver’s door. He went in and took out the bag of raw materials from the compartment under the floor and decided to just leave the car here for now.

But, a big guy suddenly slammed the door, directly shutting Xu Cheng inside.

“Do you not understand English? Since the car was sold, it’s ours, including anything in the car. What’s that in your bag?”

Bam!

Xu Cheng barbarically kicked open the door, sending both the door and the big dude flying into a wall.

“Then let me see if your fists match your tone and att.i.tude you picked to talk to me with.”
