Chen Xing picked more than 20 sheath knives of different lengths, including large long knives with a blade of 120 centimeters, and medium and short knives with a blade of 50 centimeters, but most of them were about 85 centimeters long. The knives were all stuffed into the storage space, occupying four honeycomb grids.
After selecting weapons, the two left the armory and took the elevator to the bottom floor of the main castle. Compared to before, this place has completely changed. The ground is covered with steel plates, and there are new steel beams and columns everywhere. It is estimated that even a ground-penetrating bomb cannot explode.
After passing through three large iron gates half a meter thick, the two came to the space crack. The Steel Sisters guarding here came forward to ask.
"Captain Ye Yang, have you obtained the permission from the Grand Commander?"
"It is my job to take shareholders to visit, and there is no need to notify the group leader." Ye Yang Bailiu said expressionlessly.
Chen Xing immediately understood that Ye Yang Bailiu was going on an adventure in his name.
Sure enough, the Steel Sisters guarding the entrance looked embarrassed, but Ye Yang Bailiu was the deputy leader, so they did not dare to object.
"If Granny Hua knows about it, I will explain it to her." Ye Yang Bailiu said.
The several steel sisters looked at each other for a while, then each took a step back and gave way. Ye Yang Bailiu nodded and expressed his gratitude.
Suddenly, there was the noise of a diesel engine. A brightly lit camp appeared in front of us, with spotlights installed throughout the building illuminating the surrounding area. People coming and going in the camp are all Steel Sisters wearing heavy armor.
In the middle of the camp, there are piles of gold bars, which glow golden under the light. Next to them are piles of handicrafts like clocks, ornaments, gems, sculptures, etc., things that have not been corroded by the long years.
"We have found nineteen bank vaults so far, and there should be many more to come." Ye Yang Bailiu explained, and the steel sisters passing by nodded to her.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk~" A joking voice came from the side. He turned around and saw Xiang Caidi walking towards this side, "Sneaking down again."
Ye Yang Bai Liu rolled his eyes at the former and pulled Chen Xing away, "Let's leave her alone."
Ye Yang Bailiu found an open-top off-road vehicle at random in the camp and drove onto the dilapidated road. The street lights on both sides of the road have been repaired, emitting a little orange light.
"The Mass is always full, sometimes empty, and the hateful life is sometimes hard-hearted, sometimes caring and comforting, like a game, sometimes hard-hearted, sometimes caring and comforting, like a game..."
"Poverty, power, melted by it like ice, holy, holy Messiah, holy Messiah, holy Messiah..."
A solemn and holy chant came from the loudspeaker, with obscure lyrics that seemed increasingly mysterious and distant in the dark environment.
Chen Xing heard from the tune that it was one of the hymns often played in Holy Light Church activities. Probably because the Sisterhood of Steel has fewer believers and does not have its own complete cultural system, many things are pieced together by taking pieces from here and there.
"Look over there, the bank you knocked down." Ye Yang Bailiu reduced the speed of the car and pointed forward. Looking along her white fingers, there is a big sign with the word "bank" on it.
"Are you a great man?" Chen Xing said with a smile.
Ye Yang Bailiu rolled his eyes at him, but did not refute loudly, which was regarded as acquiescence.
"It is estimated that in another ** months, the development here will be completed." Ye Yang Bailiu lowered the volume and said.
"What are your plans later?" Chen Xing asked.
"We are still discussing. Granny Hua means to guard the development of Beiqiao Town and be more prudent. Xiang Caidi wants to go to Sanchahe City. The environment there is relatively free and it is easier to attract believers." Ye Yang Bailiu said .
"Don't go to Sanchahe City, it's not a good place." Chen Xing objected immediately.
Sanchahe City is a mixed bag, and all the major forces have their hands behind the scenes. There is freedom and calm on the surface, but undercurrents are surging underneath, and all kinds of unspoken rules prevail. Although the Beiqiao Group is quite capable, it is always a female-dominated group, making it easy for people to look at them. In front of the real behemoth, they are just newborn tiger cubs. Without the protection of the principality, he could be swallowed up at any time. He didn't want his woman to be eaten dry, which would be a huge loss.
"But I think you can consider Crow Market." He suggested.
"Crow Market?" Ye Yang Bailiu showed a puzzled expression, as if he had never heard of this place name. Only then did Chen Xing remember that the Crow Market in this life had not yet been officially named.
"It's the ruins of Crow City. The location there is very good. It is at the junction of the three countries of Chiyan, Heque, and Red Dragon. There has always been good room for development. Now that there has been a fire, everything is in ruins, and it is just the time to grab the land." Chen Xing analyzed.
"Well..." Ye Yang Bailiu fell into deep thought, obviously moved by Chen Xing's words.
There are only three decision-makers in the Beiqiao Regiment. Ye Yang Bailiu's opinion is very important, and Chen Xing's opinion is right between Hua Beidou and Xiang Caidi. The former is too stable and the latter is too radical. This is a compromise. It can not only ensure safety, but also have enough room for development.
A moment later, a line of defense consisting of barbed wire and horse-blocking roadblocks appeared in front of them. Dozens of Steel Sisters stood guard there, facing the dark city ahead.
The road ahead was unpaved and the street lights were dim. The darkness ahead is like a dormant giant beast, waiting for people to walk into its maw. Ye Yang Bailiu stopped the car, and the two of them walked towards the defense line.
"Captain Ye Yang." The leader of the Iron Sisters stepped forward and saluted. The white feathers on her helmet have red tips, representing her captaincy.
Ye Yang Bailiu nodded in return, "Sisters, thank you for your hard work."
"Our road of steel." The steel sisters put one hand on their chests and leaned over to say.
After saying hello, Ye Yang Bailiu led Chen Xing through the defense line and walked into the darkness.
After a while, the sound of soft footsteps could be heard on the city roads. Two incandescent beams of light swept back and forth, and the dark building was like a silent giant, standing there quietly, watching the creatures under its feet.
Both of them brought flashlights and shone them casually at the shops on the roadside. Although this is an unexplored area, the atmosphere is not tense. Ye Yang Bailiu is a great healer and has a fake weapon from his family, while Chen Xing has a bunch of messy skills, which are only stronger than ordinary great guardians. The monsters in the left-hand world are all skeletons. At least until now, no existence that can threaten them has been found.
"Why did you buy a two-headed flying dragon for Qing Yan?" Ye Yang Bailiu asked.
"Please make my sister-in-law happy." Chen Xing smiled awkwardly, "Save her from always targeting me."
"It's just a waste of money." Ye Yang Bailiu said with a straight face, but there was not much blame in his tone, and then advised, "You should save some money, don't look at the money now, after the entire fragment is developed, you The total amount of this amount will not exceed 10 million, I estimate it to be around 8 million. I am used to being lavish and will spend it all quickly. I may not have such an opportunity again in the future."
"It's up to you." Chen Xing put away his smile and said seriously.
Ye Yang Bailiu glanced at him for a few times, as if he didn't believe it, but didn't see anything, and slowly withdrew his gaze.
