Chapter 227 The Secret Meeting in BH City
Player black market.

As usual, I disposed of excess equipment and items and replenished ammunition. This time, the consumption was relatively high. Rockets were almost exhausted, and the bullets for the bomb gun were also depleted. However, overall, it was still okay. After acquiring the power sword, the consumption was slightly lower than before when earning the same number of points.

In the end, I made a net profit of 14!

"Ding Han".

As I was leading the fat man past the black market compound, just as we were about to leave, Gunshot Like a Dragon called out to me.

"Is something wrong?"

"Hmm, come and have a cup of tea."

So, I led the fat man over to the tea room where the tea was served, and we savored the tea ceremony of this middle-aged man.

A few minutes later, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Alliance Leader Long, what's the matter?"

"We need to go to BH City."

Gunshot Like a Dragon said, "Go to a secret meeting in BH City. Besides you and me, Yu Shi Wu Zheng and Shen Jin have also been invited."

Beside him, the fat man squinted his eyes and asked, "Alliance Leader Long, may I ask what the nature of this is?"

"It's hard to describe..."

"I can only reveal that the meeting is being held by the National Security Bureau of the Crimson Dragon Kingdom. If this meeting goes smoothly, it may open up a favorable situation for our player faction in the Crimson Dragon Kingdom," said Gun Churu in a low voice.

"understood."

I nodded: "So... the upper echelons of the Crimson Dragon Kingdom are actually already interested in incorporating the players' forces?"

"That's pretty much what it means."

He smiled faintly: "But even ten fingers are not all the same length. There are also many debates in the upper echelons of the Crimson Dragon Kingdom, such as the uncertainty of the players' identities. There are also several opposing factions. Some want to recruit players, while others want to carry out a purge, either expelling or eliminating all players within the Crimson Dragon Kingdom."

Immediately, a look of surprise appeared in the fat man's eyes.

"so……"

Gun Out Like a Dragon said, "No matter what happens on this trip, remember to bring the Resurrection Scripture. I've already told Yu Shi Wu Zheng, Shen Jin, and other high-level players from other regions that everyone must bring the Resurrection Scripture to the meeting to avoid being wiped out by the other side. We don't know what the final outcome of this meeting will be, so it's always good to be prepared."

"reasonable."

I nodded: "I have the Resurrection Scripture, so don't worry."

"Yes, your flight is at 10:00 AM tomorrow. Remember not to miss it. There's a meeting the day after tomorrow morning, and the upper echelons of the Crimson Dragon Kingdom specifically requested that you attend."

"Really……"

I frowned, feeling a little uneasy. I wanted to avoid being called out by name as much as possible, since I'm someone who really hates trouble.

……

In the evening, I returned to the neighborhood with the fat man.

"Old Yang~~~"

Shen Yue happened to drive her CC into the residential area, rolled down the window and smiled, "Ding Han is here too? Want to have dinner together?"

"No, no, no."

I shook my head repeatedly and laughed, "I'm energy-saving now, so I won't be a third wheel for you two. You two eat by yourselves, I'm going home."

"alright."

The fat man gave him a knowing look, got into the car, and left.

Inside the residential area, a group of children were playing in the square. In front of the arcade machine at the convenience store next door, Li Xiang was practicing the Journey to the West moves diligently. I couldn't stand it anymore and said, "You can't even get past the carp spirit? Useless! Let me teach you!"

"Great! Brother Ding Han, you're back! Sister Xiao Ying said you were away on a business trip. I didn't expect you to be back so soon."

"is it?"

I looked up at the building and sent Lin Qingying a message: "I'm back. I'm downstairs playing games with Li Xiang for a while."

"drop!"

She replied instantly: "I didn't have a meeting today, so I got off work early. You can call first, and I'll come downstairs to find you in half an hour to practice skateboarding with me for a while."

"it is good!"

I took out a coin from my pocket and looked at Li Xiang: "Disciple, let's do something different today. How about a speedrun with two people? I'll choose Sha Wujing, and you'll choose the Dragon Girl. Don't collect any treasures along the way. Just use your Shadowless Blade in every scene and occasionally help me catch some waves. Let's try to finish the game in half an hour!"

"what?"

Li Xiang looked shocked: "Wang Yuxuan from our school is already the best. It takes him 40 minutes to beat the game using Sun Wukong. Can we do it in half an hour?"

"Why not? Real experts can speedrun it in 28 minutes!"

"it is good!"

He nodded emphatically and quickly entered combat mode.

Select the personnel and begin the screening process.

It has to be said that Li Xiang does have some talent for playing games, but he only puts it into King of Fighters '97. He's really not good at playing other games. He was forced to accept coins as soon as he got to the Spider Demon level.

The moment I finally defeated the Ox God, I saw Lin Qingying coming downstairs, and my eyes lit up.

She was dressed in a casual women's outfit, with her long hair tied in a high ponytail and wearing white sneakers. The moment she appeared downstairs, she gave people the feeling of a pure and innocent beauty.

I really envy her classmates from her school days; Lin Qingying must have left a very deep impression on them.

"Li Xiang, you play by yourself, I'm going to play with your sister Xiao Ying."

I took out a dozen or so coins and tossed them to the little guy.

"okay!"

Li Xiang continued to be addicted to the game.

In the square, Lin Qingying and I each had a skateboard and went back and forth. By this time, her skills had improved a lot. She could easily switch steps on the board, skillfully brake with the tail of the board, and even try some difficult swings.

Before long, a fine layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.

"Would you like to rest for a while?" I asked.

"No."

She shook her head: "Let's practice a little longer, the aunties will be out dancing soon..."

It seems that the square dancing aunties have left a deep impression on her.

"Row!"

I watched from the sidelines, offering occasional pointers.

"Ding Han".

Her high ponytail swayed gently in the wind, and she smiled in the afterglow of the setting sun, saying, "Let's go eat at that dry pot restaurant on the east side of the street later. I saw the pictures on their promotional posters, and it looks delicious."

"Sure, I'll go if you treat me." "Okay!"

……

After practicing for nearly an hour, I put the two skateboards in her trunk, and then the two of us walked out of the community together and headed to the dry pot restaurant.

Lin Qingying ordered shrimp and pork ribs.

She and Lu Xiaobei had different tastes. Lu Xiaobei liked chicken and bullfrog, while Lin Qingying preferred pork ribs.

"Xiao Ying".

During dinner, I said, "I have to go to BH City tomorrow to attend a meeting, and I may have to stay there for a few days."

"Oh……"

She looked up at me: "What time is your flight?"

"Ten o'clock in the morning."

"I'll take you to the airport, and then I'll go to work."

"That's too much trouble, I'll just take a taxi myself."

"Ok?"

She glanced at me, her eyes showing a hint of displeasure.

"Okay, here you go!"

"Ok!"

After dinner, the two took a walk back to their neighborhood, and then went about their own business.

Lin Qingying was in the living room for a conference call, while I returned to my room to test the effects of the Stardust Wall.

With a "whoosh," it entered battle mode and immediately released Stardust Wall. Instantly, 10 points of Yuan Power were burned and transformed into wisps of deep blue star fragments that appeared around it, constantly rotating. There were a total of 4 fragments. If all of them were destroyed, it would mean that the toughness value would disappear and the defensive effect would be lost.

Yes, the skills are very flashy, but I don't know how much resilience it actually has. We'll have to test that in actual combat.

After that, I lay down comfortably.

"drop!"

A message was sent to Zuo Shou: "I'm going to Beihai tomorrow."

"Know!"

Zuo Shou said, "I also attended that meeting, Third Brother. Tonight, a lot of people on the Star Map in BH City were talking about you, saying that your performance on the Southern battlefield was like a god descending to earth, and you are the first player in the Chinese server to wield a power sword, that's awesome... By the way, shall I pick you up from the airport tomorrow?"

"Isn't this too much trouble for you?"

"It's no trouble, I have nothing to do all day anyway."

"By the way, how's Milo's leveling up going?"

"rest assured."

Zuo Shou laughed and said, "I've already run eight dungeons with my brother Luo in a row. He's currently level 27 and leveling up very quickly. He should be able to complete the third job advancement in a few days."

"good……"

I nodded and smiled, "See you tomorrow then."

"it is good!"

……

The next day, early morning.

Lin Qingying woke up early, and after we had breakfast together, she drove me to the airport.

Huaining City, Airport Building.

After I got off the bus, I told her, "I'll be right back. Be careful at home."

"Ah."

She nodded gently: "Go on, I'm going back to work too."

"it is good."

After she drove away, I turned around and walked into the airport terminal. I immediately saw three people standing at the entrance, staring at me. They were none other than Gunfire Dragon, Uncontested by the World, and God Ash.

"that……"

His smug grin stretched almost to his ears as he grabbed my shoulder and asked, "Ding Han, Ding Han, who was that gorgeous woman driving the Bentley just now? She's so beautiful! Is she your girlfriend?"

"Ahem, don't talk nonsense, we're just friends."

"Oh my god..."

"Ding Han, you're so lucky! Such a beautiful girl, and she has such a great presence too. I never imagined you'd be ahead of us not only in the game, but also in this area..." said the man with the spear.

"Ahem, stop talking, I'll get embarrassed if you keep going."

"Let's go, to security!"

……

So, the four of them got their tickets and, without any luggage, went straight to the security checkpoint. Even though each of them had a lot of heavy weaponry in their storage space, the security equipment remained completely silent and didn't make a sound.

We arrived at BH City Capital Airport in silence three hours later.

At the exit, a person waved their arms, shouting, "Third Brother, Third Brother, I'm here! I'm here!!!"

It's the left hand!

He shouted and whistled arrogantly, as if he wanted to fly up to the sky, afraid that I wouldn't recognize him in the crowd.

"Nima..."

Shen Jin said speechlessly, "Who the hell is this? He looks a little mentally challenged..."

"my friend."

I lowered my voice and said helplessly, "BH City player, left hand."

"Left hand?!"

"The one with the left hand who's ranked in the top five?" Spear-like Dragon exclaimed in surprise.

"Ok!"

"Depend on……"

When Shen Jin looked at his left hand again, his gaze had become solemn and respectful.
