Infinite: Starting from Infiltrating Other Spaces

The middle-aged man in front of him had a gloomy face. As the leader of the Iron Hand Gang, he used to be a powerful figure in the back alley area. Even in the company, he had many people who called him brother and had close relationships with him.

He never imagined that one day the gangs in the back alley area would face crackdowns from the company.

You should know that there's no profit to be made in the back alley area. It's all thanks to them that they recycled the homeless people who were like garbage, squeezed some money out of them, and distributed it to the company.

"It's nothing. From today onwards, there will be no more gangs in the back alley area."

"Are you kidding me?!"

He laughed in anger, took a step forward, and growled, "The company abandoned this place itself!"

If we hadn't stepped forward, this place would have been in complete chaos long ago!

You can wipe us out today, but new gangs will pop up tomorrow!

As long as the company doesn't interfere, gangs will never disappear!

"Then let's sweep again."

Li Xia spoke calmly, as if she were talking about a trivial matter:

“We’ll clear out the new ones as soon as they’re born, until no one dares to show their faces again.”

These words were spoken lightly, yet they sent a chill down his spine, making his scalp tingle.

The leader of the Iron Hand Gang's pupils contracted, and after a moment of silence, his expression gradually turned ferocious:

"If you back down now, we can still talk. But if you insist on destroying the back alley... then don't blame us for fighting to the death!"

"Then you won't have an easy time either! No, nobody will have an easy time!"

"Oh?" Li Xia raised an eyebrow slightly, showing some interest: "What kind of desperate measures are you talking about? Tell me."

The man kept his mouth shut, just staring at her with a sinister look, refusing to utter a single word.

Li Xia shook her head: "It seems you haven't made up your mind to actually use it. Never mind, I'll help you make the decision..."

He slowly raised his hand and, under the bewildered gaze of the Iron Hand Gang leader, gently pressed it down.

"boom--!!!"

Suddenly, a tremendous force appeared in the sky, as if the air had solidified and pressed down hard.

The ground instantly caved in several meters, and the soft soil, as if it had been tamped, showed a dense luster.

The gang members gathered behind him didn't even have a chance to utter a sound before they were all pinned to the ground by this force, along with the weapons they relied on for resistance.

Then, in an instant, it transformed into a two-dimensional shape. The internal organs, blood, and bones were compressed by this force into something resembling minced meat, gushing out from every orifice.

Finally, it was pressed down again by the same force, like some kind of strangely colored lacquer, evenly spread on every inch of the ground.

The visible shockwave, carrying dust and a thick stench of blood, swept outwards like a crimson storm.

Everything it touched was stained a bloody red, but the storm automatically parted and went around Li Xia the moment it approached him.

The world seemed to fall silent, and everyone stared speechlessly at the horrific scene before them.

Completely disregarding the fact that their own bodies were also stained with light red, the extreme ruthlessness and hellish scene instantly gave them a tremendous shock.

Their gazes toward Li Xia were initially filled with fear, but then slowly transformed into fanaticism. They opened their mouths, not even knowing why, but still raised their weapons and let out a frenzied shout.

"Madman...madman!"

The leader of the Iron Hands gang seemed to be stunned. He stared blankly at what he had relied on, which in an instant turned into a two-dimensional planar image.

All his defenses crumbled in an instant. His body trembled violently, his lips moved incessantly, but he could only keep repeating the word "madman."

Just then, Douglas rushed over, his expression grave:

"Minister! The No. 7 defensive post on the eastern border has been breached, creating a gap in the barrier. A large number of low- to mid-level isomers are surging towards this area! There are a lot of them!"

Li Xia's gaze fell on the trembling leader in front of him, and he asked in a calm tone, "Is this your trump card?"

The Iron Hand Gang leader's teeth were chattering, making a rattling sound.

They had indeed bribed the mole inside the protection station long ago, so that once they were driven to a dead end, they would blow up the barrier and let the isomer in.

But I never expected to encounter a crazy person who didn't care about anything at all!

Just as Li Xia stood up, a series of explosions and the roars of strange beasts suddenly came from afar. A short while later, a team member rushed in to report:

"Minister! The Hunter's Guild has made their move! They're holding off the Isomer at the breach and have temporarily stabilized the situation!"

As soon as the words were spoken, three figures leaped down from the rooftop on the other side of the square and landed steadily.

Li Xia's gaze swept over them, landing on the badges of different colors on their chests.

Those are the colored badges that only titled hunters are entitled to.

The middle-aged man at the head of the group looked at Li Xia with an unusually complex expression, and remained silent for a few seconds before speaking:

"Dark Flame, it's been a long time."

Li Xia pointed to his temple:

"I'm sorry, something happened the other day and I forgot a lot of things. How about we get to know each other again?"

All three were stunned, their faces filled with astonishment. After exchanging glances, the man in the lead sighed and said:

"Okay, let's get to know each other again..."

"Azure echoes, emerald lament, violet tears."

Azure nodded: "The Hunter's Guild is temporarily under our control."

Three titled hunters... The Hunter's Guild's strength shouldn't be underestimated...

"What exactly are you trying to do?" Emerald asked, frowning. "What good will it do you to turn the back alley upside down?"

“It’s very simple.” Li Xia looked up at the rows of shacks:

"I want to change the order here, a... less cruel order."

Would you like to hear my plan?

The less-than-brutal order, a hint of mockery surfaced in Emerald and Violet's eyes, the back alley being in this state was entirely due to the company's tacit approval.

Even Darkflame was once an important part of this, but now they're saying they'll switch to a less cruel plan?

Li Xia completely ignored what they thought and just kept talking to herself:

"First, I will begin to support the Hunter's Guild, and you will take over the order of the back alley. In the future, you will also guarantee the distribution of basic living supplies."

"If the Hunter's Guild dares to withhold these supplies, I will personally take action to clear them out. You can't stop me, or you can try."

The three people's expressions changed instantly; they could hardly believe what they had just heard.

The former Dark Flame was greedy, lustful, despicable, and shameless. He cared about nothing but climbing the ranks and reaping benefits, and he never cared about how dilapidated the back alley was.

But now he's surprisingly saying we shouldn't withhold supplies?

"As compensation, I will allocate a portion of the company's internal gene therapy drug quota and provide it to you on time."

Secondly, I will set up a recycling center here to buy back the things you bring from the wild at high prices.

This recycling process is routine and consistent, and it's safer and more secure than the black market channels you used to go through.

I will also provide the Hunter Guild with basic protective equipment and medical support.

However, at the same time, you must also establish and maintain basic support systems for the back alleys, such as the most basic schools.

How you develop this place is entirely up to you.

With each sentence Li Xia spoke, the eyes of the three titled hunters lit up a little more. When Li Xia spoke, they stared at him blankly, as if they were seeing him for the first time.

Internal gene therapy, standardized equipment, medical support... these are things that hunters in the back alleys wouldn't even dare to dream of.

The company's medicine is completely different from the one that leaked out; one is the complete version, and the other is the diluted version.

Although they are both medicines, the mortality rates are vastly different!

Not to mention the recovery and medical care that hunters dream of!

The items they brought back in the past were heavily discounted on the black market, but the hunters had no way to get them to sell.

Because those things are useless to them; only the company needs them.

Establishing a mutual recovery mechanism now is more than just a benefit.

"You..." The leader, azure, hesitated for a long time before finally speaking, "What exactly have you been through?"

1. Monthly pass 2. Recommendation vote

To prevent some readers from mistaking Li Xia's actions for those of a saint, I must add an explanation.

The source of the company's rating is the back alley; clear out the back alley, and the main quest will be completed naturally.

I think that's understandable...

P.S.: 12,000 words achieved!

Chapter 12 A Realm Where All Things Vibrantly Flourish...

Title Hunters are at the pinnacle of all hunters and are the strongest in this world.

Only a Level 5 hunter can develop a strong emotional connection with the "combat armor" in their hands. After recognizing themselves and having an unwavering and persistent belief in it, their belief will receive a response from the "heterogeneous entity" within the armor, thus transforming into a mysterious weapon that is adapted to them.

Among all hunters, Night Elf was once considered by other hunters to be "the shame of title hunters".

Other hunters have beliefs they are willing to work hard for, even to the point of sacrificing themselves; but Dark Night seems to have only one belief: women and climbing the ladder.

Therefore, after "Dark Night" chose to join the company, the Hunter's Guild stripped him of the color he had been given and referred to him only as "Dark Night".

While titled hunters rarely join the company, it doesn't mean the company lacks titled powerhouses.

Even after they reached the finish line, the Hunter Guild still maintained a humble attitude and showed sufficient respect when interacting with the company.

What happened?

Li Xia smiled and said, "Just consider it as me having attained enlightenment in Longchang."

"Enlightenment in Longchang?"

The three titled hunters pondered this unfamiliar term and fell silent for a moment.

Li Xia didn't give them much time, but continued to ask, "So? What's your answer regarding my conditions?"

The three hunters exchanged glances, and each saw the seriousness in the other's eyes.

The information provided by Li Xia was comprehensive, and there was nothing to do with underhanded tactics; moreover, the responsibilities and powers were equal.

No, it should be said that the Hunter's Guild emerged as the ultimate winner, gaining control of the Back Alley. While it requires bringing a completely new order to the entire Back Alley, this is something that every person in power must do.

Azure nodded and said solemnly, "We agree, but how can we guarantee fulfillment? By signing an agreement, or..."

"No need."

Li Xia waved his hand, his voice carrying a hint of certainty: "As long as I'm here, this agreement will continue."

Emerald opened her mouth, then blurted out, "Then let's entrust this agreement solely to you. If you're no longer here..."

I suddenly stopped speaking; it doesn't seem right to say it like this.

“If I’m gone…” Li Xia was silent for a moment, then looked up at the sky: “Then this world will cease to exist, and naturally there will be no need to keep the promise.”

"What do you mean that just because he's gone, the world ceases to exist? Who does he think he is?"

The three hunters opened their mouths, but ultimately remained silent.

They've offered such generous benefits, what's wrong with putting on a show? If he's happy, Canglan feels she could cheer for Dark Night.

For example... Ah, the adult speaks so well, the adult speaks so wonderfully!

"Alright, then the Hunter's Guild will send people to assist the company in cleaning up the gangs in the entire back alley area."

Remember what I said, leave no one alive.

"They will stay and coordinate with you—"

Li Xia pointed to the three little ones standing in a row, their expressions very wise:

“They are my plenipotentiary representatives, and their words can be taken as my own.”
