Chapter 81 Rolling Stone Club

The stars are shining, the neon lights are glittering, and it is another sleepless night.

Rolling Stone Castle, central area, in front of the Rolling Stone Club.

Xu Yan's face was covered with a rubber mask as thin as a cicada's wing, and he was wearing a hooded windproof cloak commonly seen among wilderness travelers. His thick-soled off-road boots with anti-slip strips were covered with the red mud unique to the wilderness. His every move showed the fatigue of a long journey. His disguise was a hundred times more sophisticated than last night's trip to the midnight market. Even if the patrol team's spies were close at hand, they would never be able to connect him with the card-making apprentice of the Star Shop.

"Crack!"

He rubbed the brass pulley lighter, lit a hand-rolled cigarette, took a puff, and let out a contented sigh.

Only then did he calmly look through the smoke at the brightly lit classical building in front of him.

This is the heart of the entire Rolling Stone Castle.

Twenty years ago, Rolling Stone Castle was just a mining town with depleted resources.

Just like the dozen or so satellite towns surrounding Dawn City.

When resources were abundant, they attracted countless refugees from the wilderness and even gold diggers from safe zones, who mined them on a large scale, making the industry prosperous and bustling.

When the resources are exhausted, the gold diggers lose their livelihood, order collapses in an instant, and unemployment and crime rates remain high.

People who have lost hope have neither the ability to survive in the wilderness nor are accepted by the safe zone. They can only wait for the long night to fall in the cracks.

Fortunately, there is the Rolling Stone Club.

A comprehensive club that integrates battle card trading, repair, maintenance and upgrades, treatment and training of spirit masters, and fighting spirit competitions.

It is equivalent to a deluxe upgraded version of "Star Shop", "Shadow of the Rose" and "Midnight Market" bundled together.

Specially provides services for heroes in the wilderness area.

He also does some unclear and unclear business for the bigwigs in the safe zone, which is between right and wrong.

Relying on these "services" and "transactions", the Rolling Stone Club led the Rolling Stone Castle to prosperity again.

The hungry gold diggers' faces regained color, and the fire in the cold stove was rekindled.

The heroes who live on the edge of a knife in the deep wilderness now have a safe haven where they can temporarily forget their troubles, replenish intelligence, resources, spiritual cards, and recruit manpower.

All thanks to the club's founder, "Ms. Relena".

Like Xu Yan's fictional adoptive father, she is a wandering card maker from the depths of the wilderness.

The wilderness is full of dangers, with out-of-control machines, old monsters, and the echoes of natural disasters constantly threatening human survival.

But compared to the safe zone behind the high walls, this place also has one big advantage.

free.

The strong prey on the weak, survival of the fittest, lawlessness, and absolute freedom.

Spirit masters who believe in the law of the jungle can freely study ancient mysteries that are strictly prohibited by the Alliance in the wilderness area, and draw power to change the future from the hidden depths of the past.

Over the past hundred years, countless people have walked out of the wilderness, bringing profound impacts to the Alliance.

Leiliana is one of them.

The predecessor of the Rolling Stone Club was a small spiritual card shop opened by Leiliana.

Because of their excellent skills and enthusiastic service, they quickly stood out and attracted heroes from the wilderness area, who used Rolling Stone Castle as a supply point.

When the "big boss" John Carter came to Rolling Stone Castle with huge funds and unfathomable connections, he chose Leiliana as his partner.

The Rolling Stone Club was thriving, and in just a few years, its size had caught up with many of the older clubs in Dawn City.

Even with her huge business success, Leiliana never forgot her roots in the wilderness.

She has no other hobbies.

In addition to studying the art of card reading, he also does his best to help refugees in the wilderness, especially the elderly, the weak, women and children who are lonely and helpless.

"I have no power to control what happens outside of Rolling Stone Castle, but as long as you can overcome all difficulties and obstacles and come to Rolling Stone Castle, I will fight for your right to survive."

This is the oath that Leiliana has been practicing for twenty years.

On the second day after Xu Yan arrived at the northern garbage dump, he met her who came in person to distribute food and warm supplies to the garbage bugs.

Xu Yan received hot bread and sausages from her.

He also learned from "Crazy Cat" Chris that many litterbugs called her "Auntie Leiliana."

This work of distributing food and warm supplies is not a show, nor is it done occasionally, but happens every few days.

Every time, "Aunt Leiliana" does it herself, and doesn't mind the garbage bugs' dirtiness, ugliness, or even deformities and mutations.

Even the tyrannical "Buffalo" Bill was as obedient as a lamb in front of Leiliana.

It was precisely because of Leiliana's warning that the "Buffalo Gang" did not dare to do anything extreme. Instead, while occupying the center of the garbage dump, they gave up the living space in the corners.

Xu Yan is very interested in Ms. Leiliana.

His original plan was to wait for Leiliana to come again to distribute food and cold-weather supplies, then show off his card-making talent and sneak into the Rolling Stone Club.

Unexpectedly, Lei Liena never appeared again after that time, and by chance, he followed Li Tong to the Star Store.

"So, Long Jianhuan's purpose in coming to Rolling Stone Castle is to investigate the Rolling Stone Club?"

Xu Yan muttered to himself.

Considering Long Jianhuan's personality of daring to impersonate Snake Princess and lurk around Dr. Hyde, Xu Yan didn't think she would be interested in trivial security incidents in the planning area.

The target she targeted must be related to the aftermath of Dr. Hyde, that is, the Black Dream Organization.

Come to think of it, although Dr. Hyde told himself before his death that the twenty cannon fodder were purchased through "Silver Tongue" Riley.

But "Silver Tongue" Riley was just the broker.

The real supplier is someone else.

Looking across the entire Rolling Stone Castle, there are not many forces capable of providing such a large supply of goods.

The Rolling Stone Club is one of them.

Xu Yan had doubted this before.

But when he saw Ms. Leiliana, the obsession belonging to his original body deep in his mind did not react at all.

Based on his experience in resolving resentment in the Wanhun Sect, if the wronged soul really meets the murderer who killed it, it is impossible for it to remain indifferent.

Leiliana should have no grudges against her original self.

But Long Jianhuan clearly had some evidence and was preparing to take action against the Rolling Stone Club in the next few days.

"It turns out that Ms. Leiliana is only the founder and technical director of the Rolling Stone Club. The club's largest investor and true controller is the 'big boss' John Carter.

"This guy is also the boss of the underground order in Rolling Stone Castle. He's good at manipulating people, and he's good at both black and white.

"Compared to Technical Director Leiliana, this 'big boss' seems more likely to provide twenty cannon fodder to the Black Dream Organization."

Thinking of this, Xu Yan walked into the Rolling Stone Club.

On both sides of the winding corridor, a large deck composed of multiple illusion cards stacked together creates a lifelike illusion.

The sky is high and the clouds are light, the mountains are rolling and lush, and there are birds and beasts surrounded by colorful clouds, flapping their wings and soaring, galloping across the vast sky and earth.

The club is perfectly isolated from the rusty environment outside, making it feel like another world.

Accompanied by the roar of monsters from ancient times, Xu Yan walked through the corridor and entered the lobby of the club, which was magnificently decorated with stars slowly moving above and under his head.

Light and shadow intertwine, and a lifelike portrait floats in front of Xu Yan's eyes.

These are the four new guardian spirits that have just arrived at the Rolling Stone Club.

The Golden Kite Knight from the First Age

As the main force of the "Golden Iris Empire".

Needless to say, the combat effectiveness of the "Golden Kite Knight" is excellent, and its loyalty and stability are also absolutely guaranteed.

More importantly, the Golden Iris Empire was the most powerful force in the middle of the First Era.

Historians from the League of Heroes have conducted detailed research on the historical origins, family crests, genealogies of gods and demons, and even local customs and folkways of the time.

Archaeologists have also unearthed a large number of rings, armors, and swords containing the "Golden Iris Remnant Soul", and transferred the residual souls into safe and reliable seal cards.

There are a large number of spiritual cards containing the residual soul of the Golden Iris.

Compared with its powerful combat effectiveness, the price is not too expensive, and it is easy to use and has high liquidity.

After buying this [Golden Kite Knight], it is easy to find "link cards" from the same period and the same camp to form a set of cards or even a deck, and perform powerful "link skills" to achieve the effect of one plus one being greater than two.

Then, there is the [Green Lotus Sword] from the Second Era.

As a combat card that seals a weapon spirit, its biggest advantage is of course that the weapon spirit's self-awareness is not that strong, and it is not easy to conflict with the master's soul, resulting in split personality, spiritual erosion, and other side effects.

The quality of this "Green Lotus Sword Remnant Soul" is very good.

Of the forty-nine "Green Lotus Sword Techniques", it actually retained a full forty of them.

Any spirit master who has some basic knowledge of cold weapons can immediately become a master of swordsmanship as long as he establishes a spiritual connection with this "Green Lotus Sword".

Not only does it save more than ten years of training time, but at critical moments, the "Green Lotus Sword" can also fly out automatically and take off people's heads from a hundred meters away, as easy as taking something from a bag.

Xu Yan's gaze lingered on the "Green Lotus Sword" for a long time.

From the inscriptions on the sword and the information carried by the spirit of the weapon, it can be seen that the so-called "Second Era, Super Martial Civilization" has a very strong oriental color and is inextricably linked to the world of cultivation.

I'll do more research if I get a chance.

Then, there is [Dark Moon Catwoman] from the Third Age.

The girl had furry cat ears on her head and a playful cat tail swinging behind her. She looked innocent, cute and adorable, but it made Xu Yan's pupils shrink into two needle points.

He found information about this spirit from the recollections of "Dr. Half-Brain" Colin Hyde.

"Dark Moon Catwoman" is not human.

But it is a ferocious beast in human skin.

During the "Spartacus Rebellion" in the late Third Age, monster scholars from the Extraordinary Creatures Alliance fused their own genes with human genes to create this highly deceptive killing creature.

Their mission is to infiltrate the human camp and wait for an opportunity to assassinate human commanders, politicians, scientists and even supreme leaders, so as to overthrow human rule over the world and strive for the most complete freedom for all extraordinary creatures.

Humanoid beasts like the "Dark Moon Catwoman" often have the meta-instruction of "eliminating humanity" implanted in their genes or even souls.

Even after millions of years of erosion by the long river of time, the "Dark Moon Catwoman" whose physical body has long since turned to ashes and only a wisp of soul remains, will not easily waver in their mission.
