Chapter 601 Iron-Blooded City
Lin Feng called out towards the door, "Brother Zhang, come in and tell me what's wrong."
Zhang Xiaoyu pushed open the door and entered the courtyard.
Lin Feng asked him to sit down and poured him a cup of tea.
"What's making Brother Zhang so hesitant?"
Zhang Xiaoyu knew that Lin Feng must have used his mental power to see him lingering outside the door.
Zhang Xiaoyu smiled and sighed, "Sigh, women are such a hassle."
Lin Feng roughly guessed that this matter must be related to Aliya.
Zhang Xiaoyu poured all her emotions into Aliya.
Only Aliya could make him do this.
Lin Feng poured him a cup of tea. "Tell me about it."
With a gulp, Zhang Xiaoyu picked up the teacup and drank it all in one go.
"Aliya's parents run a Tyrannosaurus Hunter Group with over a thousand members, and they are extremely powerful."
They built an outer city called Ironblood City.
Although this city is an outer city, its scale is comparable to that of a large city.
This is precisely why the city is so difficult to defend.
Recently, demons have been frequently attacking Ironblood City.
Demons even entered Ironblood City, destroying buildings and attacking its inhabitants.
The Tyrannosaurus Hunters suffered heavy losses.
The Tyrannosaurus Hunters hired other Hunters and Chinese warriors to defend the city.
However, demons attack Ironblood City every night.
These people ran away after guarding the area for two days.
It's impossible to hold on to it.
Most of the merchants and residents in the city fled.
The Tyrannosaurus Hunters had poured their hearts and souls into building this city and were unwilling to give up.
Aliya wants to hire us to help the Tyrannosaurus Rex Hunters defend the city.
I know we're doing very well with our mine, making a fortune every day, so there's no need to take this risk.
But since Aliya came to me for help, I couldn't very well refuse.
I don't want to be a burden to everyone, so I plan to go and help myself.
After listening, Lin Feng stood up and paced back and forth in the courtyard.
He sensed an opportunity in this matter.
An outer city comparable to a large city, yet it couldn't be defended.
If I could acquire this city, wouldn't I save myself the trouble of building it?
Even getting half control would be fine.
Since most of the merchants and residents in the city have left, there must be many people selling their shops and houses at low prices, so I can go and buy them at rock-bottom prices.
After buying half the city, Ironblood City will become his base.
Lin Feng was not worried about losing the city.
They possess a large quantity of silver and dark silver, enough to manufacture a batch of sophisticated weapons specifically designed to counter demons.
Low-end combat power is easy to replenish; just recruit locals from Taixu.
We also have high-end combat power to deal with mid-level demons.
Lin Feng felt a surge of excitement, as if Ironblood City was already his for the taking.
Lin Feng explained his thoughts to Zhang Xiaoyu.
Zhang Xiaoyu thought for a while and said, "Xiaofeng, now that you've analyzed it, it really is an opportunity."
Judging from Aliya's tone, the Tyrannosaurus Hunters were not confident in defending Ironblood City.
They exhausted their resources in order to build the city.
Later, they hired a large number of warriors to defend the city, and the money was almost gone.
We'll help them defend Ironblood City, and they'll give us half of Ironblood City's rights. It's a win-win situation.
I'll go tell Aliya right away.
"Wait a moment."
Lin Feng called Zhang Xiaoyu to a stop.
"It's best not to tell Aliya about this yet."
Let's go to Ironblood City for a site visit first, and then make a decision."
Zhang Xiaoyu nodded. "Okay."
The two rode Lin Feng's flying dragon to Ironblood City.
Upon arriving in Ironblood City, the two looked down.
All I could see was a dilapidated city, with two of its four walls completely destroyed.
Even during the day, demons still roam outside the city walls.
The two men exchanged a glance; the situation was more serious than they had imagined.
Such a dilapidated city is probably uninhabitable at night.
The city is quite large.
What good is a large area if it can't be defended? It's just a wasteland.
Zhang Xiaoyu suddenly saw Aliya.
Aria and a team of demon hunters hunt low-level demons on the ground.
They seemed to have been fighting for a long time; their movements had slowed considerably, as if they were about to collapse from exhaustion.
Zhang Xiaoyu pointed at Aliya and shouted, "Xiaofeng, Aliya is in danger! Put me down quickly!"
Lin Feng rode his flying dragon and swooped down, throwing Zhang Xiaoyu off when he reached Aliya's head.
Lin Feng didn't get off, but instead rode the flying dragon into Ironblood City.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex Demon Hunter Team is just barely holding on.
They're almost out of money to hire martial artists.
In the past two weeks, they have halved the amount of iron ore they have acquired from Zhang Xiaoyu.
The massive Tyrannosaurus Hunter Corps was on the verge of being dragged down by Ironblood City.
Even Princess Aliya was called back to fight off the demons.
Aliya had been hunting since morning, and her squad had already killed five demons in a row, leaving them utterly exhausted.
After taking a look, I returned to Ironblood City.
However, the team responsible for replacing them was late in arriving, and they happened to encounter a demon.
That's how they ended up in danger.
With a loud bang, Zhang Xiaoyu landed near Aliya as if a god had descended to earth, and reached out to hug Aliya's waist.
"Ya'er, are you alright?"
Aliya's heart skipped a beat. "Brother, what brings you here?"
"Xiao Feng and I came to Ironblood City to check the situation."
Seeing you in danger, I got off the flying dragon first.
Aliya looked in the direction of Ironblood City and saw a dragon fly into the city.
A glimmer of hope flashed in Aliya's eyes.
"Will your Stormy Demon Hunters come to help us defend the city?"
Zhang Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment and said, "We'll have to wait until Xiaofeng understands the situation before we talk about it."
Aliya could tell from Zhang Xiaoyu's expression that Zhang Xiaoyu had something she wasn't telling her.
At that moment, a horned demon pounced on Aliya.
Aliya shouted, "Watch out!"
Zhang Xiaoyu glanced to the side, then swung her four-meter-long sword upwards.
Bang! The horned demon was sent flying.
Aliya and the other four members of her team stared wide-eyed. This was too powerful; he had sent the horned demon flying with a single, casual strike.
Zhang Xiaoyu has reached the level of Elder.
The four-meter-long sword in his hand had also been reforged by the Deep Sea Clan, with the blade incorporating ten-thousand-year-old cold iron and dark silver.
Zhang Xiaoyu wielded this knife to deal with low-level demons, and a single strike could inflict hundreds of thousands of damage.
It's normal for it to be able to cut down a horned demon.
"Wait a minute, let me take care of this demon first."
Zhang Xiaoyu released Aliya and dragged the four-meter-long sword towards the horned demon.
Swish swish.
Zhang Xiaoyu attacked continuously, and after less than ten strikes, the Barbarian Horned Demon transformed into demonic energy and dissipated.
Aliya ran over and hugged Zhang Xiaoyu.
"Brother, when did you become so amazing?"
Zhang Xiaoyu was quite pleased with herself.
"It's been a while, but I just haven't had the chance to make a move."
Zhang Xiaoyu, holding Aliya, frowned and said, "What's wrong with your Tyrannosaurus Hunter Team? How could you possibly get into danger right at your doorstep?"
Upon hearing this, Aliya's face also darkened.
"When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down. The Demon Hunter Group is in trouble, and some people are getting restless and have started to covet my father's position as leader."
