BXBX NOVEL Chapter 190 - Attraction: Part 2
“Your teacher...” Maier tried to dig a little more of the Ironfist Society HQ’s secrets out.
While the Ironfist Society HQ only caused some trouble in one of the small ports in Xilin, it had attracted a lot of attention. Some neighboring countries close to Xilin had also expressed interest.
“My teacher?” Lin Sheng pretended that he did not understand. “Don’t ask me anything. I don’t know anything.”
“Nothing much, I just want to ask.” Maier smiled sheepishly. “Have you ever thought of opening a branch here?”
“Huh??” Lin Sheng paused for a moment. He didn’t expect Maier to say that.
“Didn’t you hear me? Then I ask again.” Maier’s face grew solemn. “My boss asked me to ask if the Ironfist Society could open a branch here.”
“Which side?” Lin Sheng was a little caught off guard. He just got kicked out of Xilin, and now he’s being asked to open a branch.
“Well, Xylond is divided into two parts, the east, and the west. We belong to the east. Normally the east is dominated by elected state legislatures, which decide everything here, even the army,” Maier explained. “This time you are invited to the State Council of our state, Dermansk, and it is the unanimous appeal of the whole council.”
Lin Sheng was puzzled. “Well I could try again, but our headquarters has a problem with Heaven’s Spire... Don’t you afraid...”
“It doesn’t matter. Heaven’s Spire is strong, but we are not weak.” Maier smiled. “Also, do you know why we are the most advanced in art?”
“Why?”
“Because we tolerate everything. As long as the Ironnfist Society isn’t an anti-human and anti-social organization, we welcome it.” Maier laughed.
“This... I’ll go back and apply. To be honest, I also want to reopen the branch, but it depends on whether they support it,” Lin Sheng said hesitantly.
“You can rest assured that if the branch can be located in our state, we will be able to offer more favorable welfare policies than you can imagine!” Maier’s small eyes narrowed with laughter. He took a folded piece of black paper from his pocket, put it on the table, and pushed it gently to Lin Sheng.
Lin Sheng took it and opened it. It’s all about the privileges and benefits for the Ironfist Society branch.
“That wasn’t your attitude before.” Lin sheng refolded the paper and kept it.
“Previously we served the general government. Now, I’m a native of the state of Dermansk, and we serve the state legislature,” the fat man smiled and explained. “We are extremely curious about the way Ironfist Society practices, how it can allow someone who has no superpowers to break through the boundaries and become a transcendent...”
“There are conditions,” Lin Sheng interrupted. “I had checked the physique of the students before I taught them the method. Those who don’t have the qualifications don’t have the chance to learn it.”
“Well... I wonder if you can tell me what the conditions are?” Finally, the man sitting next to Maier spoke.
“It’s hard to say, but the odds are one in a few hundred,” Lin Sheng explained briefly.
There was a flash of disappointment in their eyes.
Lin Sheng sensed their disappointment, so he didn’t explain further. He had told them the truth. It’s up to them to decide.
Just then, the waiter served the coffee and fruit plate. He stuck a piece of watermelon into his mouth with a toothpick.
...
At Veleon Islands.
*Boom!*
A flash of orange-yellow fire exploded on Khadula.
Flesh and blood, and great masses of red debris burst violently, splashing all over the ground.
“It hurts...” Khadula wriggled, healing rapidly, and within two seconds he was back to its original shape.
Tens of meters in front of him, countless arms sprang from the ground. More than a dozen soldiers were grabbed by the arms in an instant, climbing all over them until they were completely submerged.
This was a Redwin barracks on the island.
Camp buildings had been set ablaze. The flames kept burning, turning several buildings into giant torches tens of meters high. The ground was covered with bodies, guns, canisters.
In the flames, a large number of pale arms wriggled and crawled like swarms of worms, forming white rivers that flowed through the ground.
Khadula stood in the middle, his eyes as black as a black hole without light.
He glanced around, didn’t find any more living things, so he moved forward.
During the raid on the camp, his body was hit by volleys of bombs, artillery shells, sniper rifles and various traps. But each time his body was blown up, he recovered quickly.
“Boring.” Khadula moved forward a few hundred meters, almost penetrating the whole camp.
But still, no one attacked him because all the men in the camp had either died or fled.
“Now that they’ve all given up. Then... Let’s end it.” Khadula lifted his right arm and pressed it gently.
In an instant, an invisible shockwave centered on him spread to all the arms in the camp.
Numerous pale arms burst open and sank to the ground. And the essence of the dead soldiers also rushed into the arms and sank into the ground.
There was not a trace of blood in the camp, only a few guns and weapons scattered around.
“A camp of four hundred men fell in just three minutes. Khadula, you guys really wanna declare war with Heaven’s Spire?”
In the distance, under a flash of green light, a metal ring appeared on the ground. Two shadowy figures suddenly appeared in the ring.
Like a holographic projection from a distance, the two figures flickered from time to time, and the signal seemed to be a bit shaky, but the sound was clear.
“Declare war? Why?” Khadula’s eyes widened in surprise. “There are so many Redwinians. I just ate a little, less than 1/100000 of your population, and you’re going to declare war for such a small number of people?”
