Chapter 261: Chapter 258: The Abandoned City

Jail City was brightly lit under the night sky.

On the long street, shop after shop glowed with brilliant light.

Many students from various universities ambled along in groups, window-shopping.

There were also those who had come specifically for Demon Hunting.

They strode hastily down the street, making a beeline for the city gate.

After signing a life-and-death waiver, they would disappear through the gate.

Lin Yi had come here again, all by himself.

He headed straight for the city gate.

He had only one goal: finish his mission quickly and return to school.

He also wanted to test the true destructive power of his Tiger Roar Spear Technique.

Ever since he had created this spear technique,

although he had sparred with Xu Tai twice, he had never tested the true killing intent of the Tiger Roar Spear Technique.

After all, back at school, he had to hold back against Xu Tai.

If he truly let loose and accidentally injured Xu Tai, the Town Martial Department would probably get involved.

”That guy up ahead, that’s him, right?”

A few students had followed Lin Yi all the way to Jail City.

They stared at Lin Yi from a distance.

There were six of them in total, including a sophomore.

”That’s right, that’s him. His name is Lin Yi. He’s a martial arts candidate from the Old District.”

”But, Senior Han Dong, that kid is no pushover!”

”He’s the Martial Arts Examination Champion Scholar from the Old District!”

”Hah... Martial Arts Examination Champion Scholar?”

”So what? If he dares to come to Jail City alone, even if he doesn’t die, I’ll make sure he gets skinned alive!”

”You’d better make good on your promise, or I’ll come after each and every one of you!”

The senior named Han Dong glanced back at the other younger students.

The group nodded hurriedly. ”Don’t worry, you’ll get every last bottle of the Second-Grade Compound Potion!”

”Mm, good. Once we’re inside Jail City, you guys go do your own missions. Just leave the kid to me!”

Han Dong scraped his thumb across his nose.

A look of contempt flickered in his eyes.

Hearing this, the younger students’ faces lit up with joy.

This Han Dong was infamous at school.

He wasn’t alone; he had a crew of three or four other students just like him.

They spent all their time hanging around Jail City, earning compound potions by helping people get revenge or complete missions.

Han Dong had the highest cultivation level, having already reached the rank of a 4-star Martial Artist.

To reach 4-star as a sophomore, his talent was already quite impressive.

His other accomplices were all 3-star Martial Artists.

Known as the ”Jail City Mercenaries,” they had never failed a job.

As long as they accepted a mission, they had a one hundred percent success rate.

That was why this group of students had found Han Dong through a referral.

After all, Lin Yi was considered a notable figure among the freshmen.

The Martial Arts Examination Champion Scholar from the Old District, with a 4-star Martial Artist certification badge.

And just this afternoon, they had heard that Lin Yi had competed in spear skills with Senior Xu Tai from the Gun Skill Association.

The key point was that Senior Xu Tai had lost...

This had made them start to get cold feet.

If they really followed Lin Yi into Jail City, would they, by themselves, truly be a match for him?

They were scared.

But they couldn’t just swallow the bitter resentment they felt.

For local students like them, two cases of Second-Grade Compound Potions were nothing.

They could easily pool their resources to come up with it.

That’s why they had found the infamous Han Dong to teach Lin Yi a lesson and knock him down a peg.

Of course, based on what they knew about Han Dong,

the main reason these guys were infamous was their viciousness.

Any target they set their sights on would end up either dead or severely injured.

Even if they ”accidentally” killed Lin Yi in Jail City, what did that have to do with them?

They felt no psychological burden whatsoever.

”Senior Han Dong, this is the deposit. We’ll pay the full amount after it’s done... It’s just, can you guys even get in? Isn’t this place only for freshmen who just enrolled...”

One of the younger students handed a case of compound potions to Han Dong.

He opened it and saw six bottles of Second-Grade Compound Potions arranged inside.

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and a vicious glint flashed in his eyes.

”Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t. We have our ways.”

”Do you want the kid dead or alive?” Han Dong asked with a smile.

The younger students exchanged a look, then said with a grin, ”In Jail City, has anyone targeted by you ever made it back alive?”

Hearing this, Han Dong gave the speaker a deep look.

”What’s your name?”

”Me? I’m Guo Hao!”

”Guo Hao...”

Han Dong smiled meaningfully, then turned and left with the deposit.

”Go mind your own business. We’ll take care of the rest!”

Soon, Han Dong disappeared into the crowd.

”Guo Hao, do we really have to let Senior Han Dong kill that Lin Yi?”

A little fatty asked with a grave expression.

Guo Hao shot him a glance. ”What, scared now? Getting cold feet?”

”No, I just feel... is it really necessary?” the Little Fatty said, shaking his head quickly.

”Hah! Jiang Yuan, do you think we’re just messing around? From the moment we decided to hire Han Dong, Lin Yi’s fate was sealed. Don’t tell me you haven’t heard of Han Dong’s reputation at school.”

”They’re the so-called ’Jail City Mercenaries,’ they’re ruthless. Even if I hadn’t said that, do you think they would’ve left him alive?”

”You can only blame that Lin Yi. He’s from the Old District, and we just happened to take a dislike to him!”

”If he dies in Jail City, not even the school or the Town Martial Department will be able to investigate it!”

”Without his protection, Zhou Qi and Sun Tao will be kicked out of Zone 1 sooner or later!”

”Right now, the dorm is filled with that sour stench they brought from the Old District. It’s impossible to live with them. I don’t want to see them for another second...”

Guo Hao’s face was filled with disgust.

It was as if there truly was some unbearable smell.

The other local students naturally understood what Guo Hao meant.

To them, those martial arts candidates from the Old District...

...were like beggars and refugees.

Coming to the New District was just to snatch away their cultivation resources.

And now, a few of those refugees had managed to sneak into the dorms in Zone 1.

Worse, they were living in the same dorm as Guo Hao, which was an unbearable situation for him.

The Little Fatty said nothing.

He could only choose to go along with them.

Guo Hao was right. A target that Han Dong set his sights on never got away.

Even if Guo Hao hadn’t said what he said, it would have been very difficult for Lin Yi to make it back alive.

Severely injured, even if Han Dong spared his life...

...the demonic beasts and mutated creatures wouldn’t let him go so easily.

There was only one outcome... death.

The Little Fatty sighed softly and said no more.

Guo Hao smiled. ”Come on, let’s go restock some gear and consumables. We have to do a mission in Jail City tonight, too!”

The others all nodded and headed toward the shops lining the street.

”Alright, life-and-death waiver signed!”

”You can go in now, but I have to give you a few reminders...”

Just like before, after signing the waiver,

the guard tirelessly explained some of Jail City’s rules and things to watch out for.

Lin Yi listened patiently until he finished, then nodded.

”Student, I still suggest you find a few more people and go in as a team!”

”The dangers of Jail City are not as simple as you imagine!”

”Venturing into Jail City alone is a bit too risky!”

Just as Lin Yi was about to enter Jail City, the guard couldn’t help but offer one last reminder.

Lin Yi knew he meant well.

However, he still politely declined.

”No, thanks. More people are just a burden. I can handle it myself!”

The guard studied him for a moment, then nodded and said, ”Alright then. Since you’ve made up your mind, go on in!”

”Open the gate!”

RUMBLE—

The heavy city gate slowly opened, letting out a massive sound.

The moment the gate opened a crack,

a bloody stench wafted out.

Lin Yi quickly peeked inside and was surprised to see that today’s scenery in Jail City had somehow transformed into a city.

A modern city, at that.

Although Wei Shang had mentioned before that Jail City was composed of tens of millions of small worlds,

and that the scenery changed completely every day.

Today it might be mountains and rivers, tomorrow a forest, the day after a desert, and the day after that, perhaps a vast ocean...

But when a modern city appeared before his eyes,

he was still a little surprised.

However, he quickly grew composed.

Once the gate was fully open, Lin Yi walked in without a hint of hesitation.

Just as he stepped into the city,

the massive rumbling sound echoed behind him again.

The city gate had closed.

Lin Yi stood on a city street, rows of streetlights lining both sides.

There were even some storefronts and residential complexes with their lights on.

But the street was deserted. A light breeze swept through,

stirring up the plastic bags and debris on the ground.

The entire city felt desolate and eerie.

It also gave him a sense of déjà vu.

From the moment he set foot in this city, he felt as if he had returned to the Old District.

The kind of place where, at night, the entire city fell into a dead silence.

Only a few scattered lights indicated that there were still people living there.

You could even spot the occasional figures of Scavengers and vagrants on the streets.

But this city before him...

...had no vagrants, no Scavengers.

There was only the sound of the whistling wind and the thick, bloody stench hanging in the air. It was like an abandoned city.

SWISH—

The Black Gold Tiger Head Spear appeared in Lin Yi’s hand.

After pausing for only a moment, he started walking down the long street, deeper into the city.

The TAP-TAP of his footsteps sounded exceptionally jarring on the silent street.

Even the wind couldn’t cover the sound.

Lin Yi walked alone toward the city’s depths.

「A few minutes later.」

The city gate opened again.

A few people walked in from the outside.

It was Han Dong and his team, each of them wearing a savage expression.

A bloodthirsty gleam shone in their eyes.

Other people came to Jail City filled with fear.

But as for them, each one was more excited than the last.

Logically, as sophomores, they should have moved on to Zones 4-6 long ago.

They shouldn’t be appearing in a place like Zones 1-3, the freshman area.

But they were exploiting a bug; they had freshman wristbands.

The original owners of those wristbands had already been left behind in Jail City forever.

The corner of Han Dong’s mouth curved up as a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

”Alright, boys, it’s hunting time. Let’s see who finds that cockroach from the Old District first...”

At his words, the others’ eyes grew even more crazed and excited.

With savage looks on their faces, they all let out excited howls.

Then, they quickly scattered in different directions, disappearing into the abandoned city.
