C316 There Are More Thieves than Me
There was only one more day until the end of the exam, so Lu Chong decided to leave.
He could be said to have returned with a bountiful harvest from this Hunter Assessment.
Apart from the 25 Emperor Level scorpion, Lu Chong also had many other fierce beasts that he had hunted in his Interspatial Ring.
Up until now, the corpses of all kinds of fierce beasts had almost filled half of his Interspatial Ring.
The two of them flew all the way back. Along the way, they saw other hunters walking around, trying their best to avoid a direct confrontation.
With Shui Dingdong's warning in advance, no one could stop them on the way.
On the way back, Lu Chong obtained a lot of fierce beasts and threw them all into the Interspatial Ring.
He roughly calculated that his harvest this time, if converted into alliance dollars, would be worth more than one billion.
However, just as they were about to reach the end point, an accident still happened.
The exit of the restricted area ahead was actually blocked.
"What is going on?" Lu Chong saw that there were many people in front of him, and it seemed like a battle had occurred. He didn't rush forward, but let Shui Dingdong go and investigate.
Although Shui Dingdong was unwilling, she had been used to being called around by Lu Chong these few days, so she still went.
Not long later, Shui Dingdong returned again and said angrily, "It's the people of the Black Dragon Clan. They are too overbearing."
"The Black Dragon Clan?" Lu Chong asked curiously, "What are they doing here?"
Shui Dingdong said, "They have completely sealed off the exit and threatened to inspect everyone's Interspatial Ring."
"Then they will charge a toll to let them pass."
Lu Chong touched the ring on his finger and asked, "Aren't they afraid of incurring public wrath, and no one will join forces to fight back against them?"
Shui Dingdong seemed to be quite smart at the moment. She analyzed, "It is not that easy."
"The Black Dragon Clan was originally relatively united, and the people who came out of their territory were all from the same clan."
"Furthermore, they will only take away the prey outside of the Emperor Level scorpion."
"As long as they hand it over, they will let them pass." Shui Dingdong said.
Lu Chong understood. This had unknowingly divided the hunters of the other cities.
Those who didn't care about their prey in the first place only needed to hand it over and they would be able to get out of here smoothly. Why would they fight to the death with the overbearing Black Dragon Clan here?
However, Lu Chong couldn't hand it over.
Besides passing the Hunter Assessment, his biggest harvest this time was the huge amount of prey.
This was prey worth more than one billion, how could he easily hand it over to others?
Furthermore, Lu Chong swept his eyes across the many people who were confronting the Black Dragon Clan in the distance. They should be experts who did not want to lower their heads.
This group of people could be considered to have some backbone. For the time being, they did not compromise.
Among them were the twenty over upper-stage Emperor Level hunters from the Shifang City.
Lu Chong saw the Fox Clan's Bai Su who he had met once from afar.
"You can't make it either?" Lu Chong asked again.
Shui Dingdong said helplessly, "No, they sealed the exit with layers of Gang Qis. My invisibility will also lose its effectiveness."
Unless they forced their way in, but Shui Dingdong clearly did not have the ability.
"Let's go and take a look first."
After understanding the basic situation, Lu Chong brought the invisible Shui Dingdong and quickly flew to the middle of the hunters in Shifang City and landed beside Bai Su.
At this moment, this charming female from the Fox Clan was also at a loss for what to do. Beside her stood the expert from the Heavenly Eye Clan, Tong Qing.
"Mr. Lu, you are back too?" Bai Su saw Lu Chong and said with a gentle smile.
"A vixen!" Shui Dingdong hid in the dark and muttered unhappily.
Lu Chong nodded and asked, "Miss Bai, with this kind of situation happening, could it be that the Hunter Guild did not care about it?"
Bai Su shook her head and said, "They will not easily interfere with the exam. After all, the people of the Black Dragon Clan do not violate the exam rules."
"Look, even the inspection department of each city can only watch outside at this time. They cannot interfere."
Lu Chong followed Bai Su's line of sight and looked past the light wall. Sure enough, he saw the aggressive Niu Bo in the distance. Smoke was coming out of his nostrils.
...
"Captain Long Cheng, what is the meaning of this Black Dragon Clan? This is the Hunter assessment venue, not your Black Dragon Territory. Isn't this too overbearing?" Niu Bo was interrogating the patrolling captain from the Black Dragon Territory.
Beside him, there were patrols from other cities. They were also staring at the patrolling Black Dragon Clan.
The member of Black Dragon Clan had a dragon head and a human body. Its entire body was covered in black scales, and even its face was the same.
"Niu Bo, our Black Dragon Clan is in need of money recently. This is just a small transaction within the scope of the rules. How can it be considered overbearing?"
The leader of the Black Dragon Clan, Long Cheng, who was more than three meters tall, said indifferently, "Look, anyone who turns in their prey can come out smoothly and pass the test as well."
"Nonsense." Two hot waves spurted out from Niu Bo's nostrils. He was extremely angry, "You are not putting the people of the nine cities in your eyes."
The nine cities outside the Black Dragon Territory were mainly the territories of the Brutal Ox Clan and Heavenly Eye Clan. Now, they were forced to stand together and question the Black Dragon Clan.
However, the member of Black Dragon Clan obviously didn't care about it. Long Cheng spread out his dragon claw like hands, "If you think that way, I have no other choice."
"It's your people who are too useless. You can't blame us for that."
Niu Bo was so angry that he didn't know what to say.
They had never thought that the Black Dragon Clan would act so tyrannically this time.
Furthermore, although the number of reserve hunters they sent wasn't as many as the nine cities, there were five Peak of Emperor Level hunters among them. This was clearly a premeditated plan.
Five Peak of Emperor Level member of Black Dragon Clan was enough to firmly suppress the experts of the nine cities.
In fact, without affecting the results of the test, it wasn't a big deal for the reserve hunters to hand over the other prey and harvests.
However, this involved the dignity of the Brutal Ox Clan and the Heavenly Eye Clan. How could they surrender so easily?
...
Bai Su, Tong Qing, and the others who were confronting the member of Black Dragon Clan had the same thought.
Hand over their prey. Even if they passed the test, could they still be called true hunters?2
Although the Black Dragon Clan did not block their path, they were humiliating them and reminding them that they were not qualified to be Star Hunter.
At this moment, Lu Chong had another thought.
"Isn't this more like a robber than me?"
"How can there be such a good thing?" His heart was already beginning to stir.
"If that's the case, if we were to snatch them back, wouldn't that be considered breaking the rules?" Lu Chong looked at Bai Su, who was frowning and deep in thought, and asked in a low voice.
For a moment, not only Bai Su, but the surrounding people from Shifang City also looked over.
Could it be that this person was scared silly?
Didn't he take a look at how much weight he weighed? Was the Black Dragon Clan that easy to snatch?
