Pretending To Be A Boss

Chapter 91 Hunters from a Foreign Land

The hunting festival had no true enemies to speak of; Huaxia's hunters, no matter how fiercely they competed against each other, always presented a united front when facing the outside world.

Qi Xun did indeed seem to be a profligate, after listening to Li Xiaoyu's words, Tang Xian carefully scrutinized him and found Qi Xun indeed had little to be suspicious of.

If someone like that were actually pretending to be a profligate, then among the sons of the three major families, Li Zheng might be ranked last.

"Why haven't I seen anyone from the Song Family, I'd like to see which unlucky guy is marrying you," Tang Xian looked around.

Li Xiaoyu had already been irritated by Tang Xian too many times today and said with a numb expression,

"I don't know, maybe he'll show up later. Since Qi Xun is here, he should be arriving soon. Let's go somewhere else, the reception on this part of the field is for those within Huaxia Fortress, the hunters from other nations' fortresses are on the other side."

"So many people," Tang Xian remarked.

"There are a total of two hundred teams, and Huaxia accounts for nearly half. However, for this reason, fortresses from other nations are accustomed to banding together against us during the hunting festival," Li Xiaoyu explained.

Tang Xian nodded and said, "There should be no major issues with Akasi either, he is a very reasonable person. Let's go have a look on the other side now."

Thinking that it would be quite awkward if they really came across the Song Family's team, Tang Xian didn't want to linger any longer and as they walked, he said,

"Do you remember the people I told you about?"

"Gong Kun's team with their strong equipment support, Zhong Xiuran's team that might have tactical talent, Gu Luo's team with their exceptional eyesight, and the female devil Qin Qian," Li Xiaoyu reported calmly.

"Mhm, try to win these people over, and if you can't, try not to make them enemies. We can't guarantee anything else, but Li Zheng's personal safety must be ensured," Tang Xian said lightly.

"Don't talk as if my brother is going to die or something," Li Xiaoyu still had some confidence in her own brother.

"You yourself said it, this is the largest and highest-quality hunting festival; no one knows what might happen. Moreover, the mine zone has been a bit unstable these days," Tang Xian turned and walked towards the entrance.

"The mine zone is unstable?" Li Xiaoyu was somewhat surprised.

"The beast migration is unexplained, its destination unknown; it's also uncertain whether it will affect the hunting festival, even though the festival is in a blue zone, many things become unpredictable."

If wildlife was migrating, it meant there were no fixed safe areas in the world of the mine zone.

"When did this happen?" Li Xiaoyu, while not as scholarly as Tang Xian, also studied the mine zone.

"A few days ago, that's my premonition. Mankind has always lived between two continents, rarely venturing into the northern territories. Speaking of the plan to detour from the west and attack Yuepela Plains, I think that needs to be well reconsidered."

As someone who had come from the red soil forests up north, crossed the Waning Time Valley, traversed the crimson wastelands and reached the Tianque Plains, Tang Xian knew that he had only reached the edge of the Northern Region.

The vast Northern Region's true nature was yet unseen.

"Mankind is opening a western route directly to the Yuepela Plains right now, the timing of the beast migration is too coincidental."

With unhurried steps, Li Xiaoyu felt Tang Xian's worries were a bit too conspiratorial.

"Animals have always migrated, right? That's unrelated to our actions. I know that many animals are nearly as intelligent as humans, but they are ultimately scattered. They even fight among themselves. How could they possibly migrate in unison and establish defenses?"

Tang Xian simply shook his head slightly, not saying anything further. These matters were pure instinct on his part and baseless.

After a short walk, the two arrived at the other side of the stadium.

The complexions that met their eyes began to stand out distinctly in this area.

Many small countries had disappeared after the great calamity; united, they also formed the largest fortress alliance—the Federation.

Even the fortress clusters of Huaxia, Dongying, and the United States were within the scope of the Federation.

However, these countries, already colossal or with great influence, retained their national titles.

For some powerful countries, becoming independent from the Federation had only happened in recent years.

Of course, with the mine zone ahead, humanity as a whole was still united, with no infighting. This kind of secession affected only the economic system and market.

The ones most likely to secede were Lincoln Fortress and Sky Guardian Fortress. Although Huaxia Fortress hadn't seceded, its massive size always led all other powers to treat it separately.

So far, the fortresses that could enter the seventh level were only these two and the three major families of Huaxia.

Although numerically inferior to the fortresses of Huaxia, Lincoln Fortress has always been at the forefront in various aspects compared to other fortresses.

Even with the marital alliance between the Song Family and the Li Family, there was no absolute certainty they could develop the eighth level of Fortress No. 39 before Lincoln Fortress.

Naturally, Lincoln Fortress became a key point of focus for Li Xiaoyu and Tang Xian.

They had only one representative hunter team.

"Lincoln Fortress couldn't be considered a cooperative partner now, could it?" Tang Xian asked.

"No, they are inevitably the enemy we'll have to confront in the mine zone. Their priority is even above the Qi Family and the Song Family." Explore more at empire

Li Xiaoyu and Tang Xian watched together as the spotlight fell on the distinctly different hunter team from Lincoln Fortress, unlike those of other nations.
