Chapter 455

"Manager of Torrent Battle Fort?" Pam Honqi sneered as Pam Yun turned around. "Who is he? He doesn’t even qualify to see me yet he wants to see the leader? They are just a bunch of idiots who don’t know their place. If they don’t’ leave, use a stick and beat them away. If they still don’t move, then just kill them! In Limitless City, our Pam Family can kill someone without consequences."

Qian Jin smiled bitterly when he got his identification threw back at him. The semi-respectful expression on Pam Yun’s face disappeared and disdain took over. Looks like in the eyes of members of Snake Emperor Family, Torrent Battle Fort wasn’t important enough.

"Our elder had spoken, your status doesn’t qualify." For some reason, Pam Yun’s arrogant disappeared a little when he saw Qian Jin’s bitter smile. His haughty voice then turned respectful again: "If you want to see higher-up members of our Family, you can speak to a manager of the outer council."

"Manager of the outer council?" Qian Jin smiled. People in that position were probably under elders who were in charge of people who hadn’t woken up their bloodline or failed to awaken the bloodline in the Qian Family.

In terms of power, they had probably less power than the manager of a restaurant. They only ran errands for those elders. Those elders of the outer council also didn’t have much power. They were more like higher-up guards since they typically are warriors who only achieved primary awakening their entire life and had no more potential.

"Manager? Can these managers handle important matters?" Qian Jin laughed as he looked at Pam Yun. "If the leader wanted to invite us to meet him one day, just tell him that a man named Pam Monzi knows where we live."

Pam Yun was really perplexed when he saw Qian Jin got onto his horse smoothly and confidently with no hesitation. "Where did he come from? Where did he get all this confidence? Why does he think that our majestic leader will see him?" he thought.

Duren Burg who was still on the horse looked at Pam Yun and asked, "You failed the primary awakening?"

The confusion on Pam Yun’s face turned into a depressed expression. It was fortunate that his father was a bloodline warrior who had done a lot for the Pam Family, otherwise, he would be a servant at a restaurant or bar now.

"Since you failed already, do you want to take a bet?" Duren Burg waved at Pam Yun to tell him to come closer. "Get on my horse, I might be able to help you wake up your Hydra Bloodline."

"Activate my bloodline?" Pam Yun was stunned. He stared at Duren Burg and thought, "Is this guy joking? The family altar is the place where people have the highest chance of awakening bloodlines. Since I failed on the altar, I can only hope for a natural awakening."

"Would you like to bet or not?" Duren Burg reached out to Pam Yun and asked. "I’m only giving you this opportunity because I saw that you were respectful to Qian Jin and aren't like other idiots of bloodline families."

"Bet? Bet on what?" Pam Yun looked around and thought that it was impossible for someone to kidnap a member of Hydra Family, unless these people wanted to die, even the Qian Family couldn’t save them.

Kidnapping a member of the Hydra Family was declaring war on the family! This was the unwritten rule of both Zence and the Demon Empire for many years, and no one dared to cross the line.

"Pam Yun, what are you doing?"

"Taking the bet!" Pam Yun got onto the horse and sat behind Duren Burg. With an unwilling and determined expression on his face, he said, "I don’t want to stay at this gate for the rest of my life, I want to become a real warrior, a bloodline warrior!"

"Honorable Hydra Bloodline Warrior? Wake up! You already failed the awakening, it is impossible!"

"I want to give it my last try." Pam Yun sighed. "Pam Mun, the guards of the gate are just like watchdogs. I had never felt the honor and pride that you're talking about. For the last little while, all that I can feel is just shame. I don’t want to live like that anymore."

"Interesting." Duren Burg looked at Pam Yun and said, "Hold still, we are going to go fast!"

After the whip, the horse charged forward and only left a trail of dust in the air. The clip-clop noise of the hooves slowly disappeared as well.

There were all kinds of facilities and places in the huge Limitless City. There was also a Warrior Union, but these Warrior Unions in the territories of Bloodline Warriors were typically very small and weak.

The Limitless Battle Fort was so broke that it was beyond Qian Jin’s expectation. This Warrior Union that looked alright from the outside was really broke on the inside. There were even spider webs at the corners of the hall and the tables and chairs for visitors had an antique feel to them.

Qian Jin suspected that these tables and chairs could be sold for a good price on the antique market.

Behind one of the table, there was an old warrior with a pair of gla.s.ses, he looked like he was from another era with the numerous wrinkles on his face. "Young ones, what brings you here? What service do you need from us, Limitless Battle Fort?" His voice sounded like he was from another place in time.

Qian Jin was shocked to see this old warrior. He was wondering if he was hallucinating. He was trying to get a place to stay at Limitless Battle Fort, but he didn’t expect to see this. Now, it seemed like the Torrent Battle Fort was doing alright, it was at least one of the top forces.

"Do you need guards or bodyguards? Or do you want to join our Union?" the old warrior asked the questions as if he practiced hundred thousands of times. "Or are you seeking long-term protection? Our Limitless Battle Fort has a lot of experienced senior warriors..."

The old warrior straightened his back when he said that. Qian Jin, on the other hand, swallowed his spit. "Why? Does someone want to open a senior care facility?" He thought.

"Actually..." Qian Jin took out his identification from Torrent Battle Fort and said, "Elder, I’m from Torrent Battle Fort, and I want to borrow some s.p.a.ce."

The elder’s eyes squinted as he looked at the identification and said: "This is a real identification. But young one, our Battle Fort is extremely busy, and we have a lot of people. If you want to borrow some s.p.a.ce, I’m afraid..."

Pa! Qian Jin put a gold coin on the table, and the crisp noise resonated in the room as if it was asking where the busy warriors were at.

"Eh?" The elder looked at the gold coin and nodded. "Huh... I... Huh, I just remembered that there is a free s.p.a.ce."

Qian Jin looked at this elder warrior and thought, "This elder is really interesting. At least, he is really experienced at taking the money and he is sly and smart under his old mask. If he can be a help to Rosella, then it would be great."

"However..." The elder looked into Qian Jin’s eyes and said, "That s.p.a.ce is too small, it might fit all of you..."

Pa! Another gold coin was placed on the table. The elder used his thin and dry hands to slide on the table and grabbed the gold coin smoothly. He nodded and said, "Wait, I just remembered again... Uh, when you get old, your memory starts to play tricks on you..."

At this point, Qian Jin had to appreciate this elder’s shamelessness, it was comparable to Rollin and Duren Burg. Probably all the rooms in the building were empty, but he said that they were almost full. It was a misuse of talent for him to be a warrior.

"Elder, are you interested in switching up your career?" Qian Jin leaned on the table as he asked, "Perhaps, like joining a merchant group?"

"Commercial Trading Firm?" A stubborn expression appeared on the elder’s face as he shook his head. "I’m a warrior."

"If you are good, you can make way more money."

"I…... Am... A.... warrior."

"Warrior..." Qian Jin rolled his lips as he thought, "Warriors are a bunch of people who are as stubborn as donkeys and I’m one of them too. After I make up my mind, I would continue doing it even if the chance is small."

Honor! The honor of a warrior was intangible, but it really existed in every warrior. The dignity and honor of warriors was such a well-known unspoken guideline that it wasn’t even formally written into the [Warrior’s Code].

It wasn’t because warriors didn’t know about the honor and dignity, it was just that it wasn’t needed. A real warrior didn’t need the [Warrior’s Code] to remind them of it. They would protect the dignity and honor automatically.

Pa! The third gold coin was put on the table, but the elder didn’t even look at it this time, a look of disdain even flashed through his eyes.

"The first two gold coins were to borrow the room and those were acceptable. This one? To buy the loyalty?" He thought.

"This gold coin is for getting some information." Qian Jin pushed the gold coin forward and said, "I remember that the Warrior Union would sometimes take Adventurer Union’s business and sell information and intelligence, right?"

The elder’s palm covered the gold coin and the gold coin disappeared instantly like magic.

"How many members does this Union have?"

"33….."

Qian Jin looked at the high-up ceiling and thought to himself, "d.a.m.n, that little?"

33? This was the number of members that this Warrior Union had. After all, the influence of bloodline warriors in such city was just too high. People are able to hire bloodline warriors most of the time.

Although it would be more expensive, it was a lot safer to hire them.
