Starry Sky Railway: No one understands the Amber King better than me.

The remaining professional tasks should be handled by professionals.

.....

After the elevator doors opened, the daily life of Qianxing City's streets and alleys began to unfold before Lin Yuan's eyes.

Compared to those high-end individuals who fly around in the air, Lin Yuan prefers these down-to-earth people; they are more authentic and have more color in their lives.

Oh, saying people isn't quite accurate. Walking on the sidewalk, Lin Yuan had already seen several people of different races.

Some look almost identical to humans, except they have antennae on their heads or a tail behind them.

But some were completely different. Although they walked on two legs like humans, Lin Yuan couldn't tell what race they were from their appearance.

As for why everyone behaves in this human-like way?

Lin Yuan had once heard an anecdote that the former "Pure Beauty" Star God's favorite form was this, and thus all life in the universe would naturally pursue this as the direction of beauty.

Of course, this could just be a rumor, since no one can personally ask [Chunmei] whether this actually happened.

Just as he was thinking this, a figure kept deliberately approaching the direction he was heading.

Lin Yuan glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that the newcomer was actually a rat-man, who was walking forward with his head down and hurried steps.

In the instant their bodies met, a cunning glint flashed in the rat-man's eyes. With lightning speed, he grabbed the briefcase from Lin Yuan's hands and prepared to run away.

But when it suddenly exerted force with its legs, trying to shake off these poor strangers with its speed as usual, it found that its hands were completely still, as if it had grabbed a mountain.

"Let go if you don't want to die!"

The rat-man bared its sharp teeth, its face revealing a fierce expression, trying to scare Lin Yuan away.

But when it looked up, it met a dark and calm gaze.

"hiss--"

As if being targeted by a natural enemy, a jolt of electricity coursed through its body, stimulating its senses.

A sudden chill of fear welled up inside me, and my whole body seemed to be urging it to run away.

The ratman's hands suddenly lost their strength, and he staggered violently under the immense inertia, falling to the ground.

Ignoring the pain in its body, it struggled to its feet with a pounding heart and then ran a long way in one breath.

Lin Yuan watched the other person's disappearing figure with great interest, and the commotion here also attracted the attention of many people.

The local residents seemed to have long been accustomed to this kind of thing happening. After casting their glances, they chose to stay away from the area, and some even cast sympathetic glances at Lin Yuan.

Among these gazes, Lin Yuan could detect a few that were particularly striking.

"Is he being targeted, or is it just a coincidence?"

Lin Yuan thought about it again, but didn't chase after the guy who had run away.

If I can attract the attention of some people, it can be considered as providing cover for the other team members.

......

Turning the corner, a wide and huge pedestrian street came into view.

The streets were teeming with people, and the shops on both sides were brightly lit and bustling with activity.

Huge neon signs and image projections hang in the air, flamboyantly beckoning business to passing tourists.

Lin Yuan looked around carefully and found that the shops were selling food and specialty products from all sorts of civilizations and planets.

"Tsk tsk, what a nice place."

Lin Yuan smiled sincerely.

......

As night falls, the lights are on.

The pedestrian street after dark has a different feel compared to the daytime; it's bustling yet more vibrant.

Long queues formed outside some specialty shops that only open at night, and Lin Yuan could sense that the atmosphere of chaos was gradually escalating.

Several gunshots rang out in the distance, and warning sirens from patrol cars sounded intermittently.

In the shadows of street corners, crime and violence are lurking.

Lin Yuan, on the other hand, simply carried large and small bags of food, strolling casually through the streets where light and shadow intertwined.

Recalling the various snacks he had enjoyed today, and the excited expressions of the cat-eared girls he had tipped with credits, Lin Yuan's mood improved.

The neon lights shone brightly, but also illuminated a dark area.

As they walked, passing through a shadowy alley, Lin Yuan noticed that several unusual dark figures had suddenly appeared behind him.

"tread"

He paused slightly, then stopped and turned back.

A noisy and dense crowd gathered in his direction, gradually blocking the alley entrance and sealing off his way.

Looking up, one sees a scene resembling a zoo, filled with various races of demi-humans.

Dog heads, wolf heads, and even a gorilla—the only thing they had in common was their exceptionally large and robust physiques, exuding a fierce and wild aura.

In the group, a rat-man saw Lin Yuan turn around and yelled, pointing at him.

"It's...it's him!"

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow, looking quite intrigued.

"Your friend?"

......

After a series of dull, resounding punches landing, mixed with the roars and howls of various animals, the alleyway fell silent once more.

"The local gangs are so rude."

Lin Yuan walked out of the alley with a calm expression, shaking off the dust that had settled on his body.

Looking at the several damaged food packages in his hand, a hint of heartache flashed in his eyes.

On the main road back to the hotel, Lin Yuan recalled the information he had just obtained through various means.

"The Beast Gang, that's interesting."

......

Chapter 50 Stepping onto the Stage into Brilliance

"Look what I brought you."

Lin Yuan placed the packages in his hand on the conference room table and took out various specialty foods one by one.

"No way, boss, we've been working so hard here, and you just went out to play all day?"

Sakura picked up some food, put it in her mouth, and muttered something while tasting it, not forgetting to complain, but her eyes were slightly bright.

"This is actually pretty good!"

"I went out on some serious business, you know. I ran into a bunch of petty thieves, who said they were under the command of the Beast Gang."

Lin Yuan tried to defend himself, but he couldn't admit that he really had nothing to do.

"The Ten Thousand Beasts Gang, that sounds familiar."

Xiang Yu took a tissue and wiped the oil stains off his hands. He activated the panel in front of him and quickly began searching.

"Found it. The Beast Gang, one of the largest local gangs in District C of Thousand Star City. I searched the local underground forums. This Beast Gang should be the black glove of a giant enterprise in the inner city. Its style and behavior are extremely domineering. It controls ordinary people by means of violence, and its main income comes from illegal sources."

"Hmm, is that so? Could it be that we're being watched?"

A thoughtful look flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes.

"Captain, did you encounter an official member of the Beast Gang?"

"No, they should just be a bunch of low-level thugs. It seems that the Beast Gang has been telling them to keep an eye on unfamiliar faces and outsiders, and to test them and report any suspicious activity."

Lin Yuan recalled the scene when he questioned them before. Some of them were initially stubborn, but even after he beat them to a pulp, they still refused to confess.

But after he used some methods, the other party suddenly cried out and confessed everything.

This little trick was something Lin Yuan had recently developed unintentionally. When he slightly mobilized a trace of the power of the [Destruction] Flame onto these people, he would always make them see what they feared most on a psychological level. It was perfect for interrogation.

"It should just be a coincidence."

Xiang Yu turned off the screen and explained:

"There are many gangs like this in Thousand Star City. Most of them work for the big shots in the inner city in secret, and use these small fry scattered all over the streets as their subordinates to monitor and control any possible situations."

"If it's an accident, that's perfect. If it's really involved, then we can take care of these guys while we're at it. Tomorrow is the day of the operation. How are everyone's preparations?"

After a day of enjoyment, Lin Yuan felt completely relaxed.

Relaxation is for unleashing even greater power. Lin Yuan's expression at this moment was not as relaxed and easygoing as before, but rather had a compelling depth.

"Preparations are complete, and we are ready to take action at any time."

Seeing Lin Yuan become serious, everyone quickly stopped their casual actions.

"This operation is the first since our team was formed, and I hope it will be a perfect start."

I have no other requirements for you. Only one: unite as one and obey orders in critical moments.

Our target is the fangs, but not just the fangs. Whatever enemy appears, we will crush them like the Amber King's mighty hammer.

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison and made the gesture.

Lin Yuan was somewhat surprised that while responding, everyone spontaneously saluted him. He paused for a moment, then returned the salute.

As if seeing the doubt in Lin Yuan's eyes, Yingduo smiled and explained:

"Boss, we all thought your move was pretty cool the other day. As a team, we should have our own unique style, so why don't we start with this move?"

Lin Yuan glanced at everyone in silence, and finally nodded slowly.

"Everyone, get some rest. Tomorrow is our turn to take the stage."

After exchanging pleasantries, the team members left to return to their rooms for final preparations.
