Chapter 1277: Chapter 732: Liu’s Titan, the Middleman Merchant

Danerluo Port,

As the Frost Wolf Mercenary Corps and the Phoenix Mercenary Corps saw the approaching patrol team from the Dawn Church, they immediately stopped their actions.

Some mercenaries even put away their weapons, watching the Dawn Church cautiously from a distance.

Gray looked at Lina across from him and said with a smile:

“I knew it, you guys are just like this.”

“Trying to create trouble for us, hoping we’ll fall into a trap first?”

“These little tricks are all you have. We Frost Wolf Mercenary Corps didn’t come to Danerluo Port just yesterday.”

Upon hearing Gray’s taunt, Lina’s face darkened a bit, but she didn’t say much more.

The reason she provoked the Frost Wolf Mercenary Corps was due to the previous conflict between both sides in a small world; she wanted to regain ground.

But unfortunately, Gray restrained his fellow mercenaries, avoiding the trap Lina had set.

Lina acted this way by utilizing the rules of Danerluo Port.

In Danerluo Port, any combat is forbidden.

This is a mandatory regulation. Regardless of the reason, any actual aggressive action is considered wrong.

It would lead to immediate arrest by the patrol of Danerluo Port.

And the patrol of Danerluo Port is made of strong individuals from the Dawn Church and Kane Floating City.

Even large mercenary groups and extraordinary forces dare not defy the city regulations here, or face the iron-fisted punishment from Dawn Church and Kane Floating City.

Even some legendary strongmen visiting Danerluo Port won’t publicly disrespect them.

Kane Floating City floats right above!

Even if the World Tree Favored isn’t present at Danerluo Port, those who attain legendary status wouldn’t be so irrational to disrespect Lis here.

Lis doesn’t tolerate those who dare break city regulations.

With Kane Floating City’s constant surveillance, should any transcendent battle occur at Danerluo Port or Phillips Crystal, the patrol team will arrive at the scene immediately.

All extraordinary professionals fighting in Danerluo Port and Phillips Crystal area will be directly arrested by the patrol.

After being sealed of their Extraordinary Power, they’ll be sent to the prison of Danerluo Port.

Depending on the severity of the battle, the punishment for the arrested extraordinary professionals may vary.

But at minimum, after compensating for damaged properties and paying fines, they would spend at least a week in jail.

So, there is room to exploit the loophole.

In fact, the conflict between the Frost Wolf Mercenary Corps and the Phoenix Mercenary Corps in the small world arises from discovering the rights to a mineral deposit.

According to the rules set by Kane Floating City, various mineral resources found in the small world can be traded after being notarized by the Floating City.

In this way, they would receive protection from Kane Floating City.

Of course, this requires money, but many are still quite willing to do so.

After all, apart from those more extensive and well-staffed extraordinary forces, entities like mercenary groups can’t easily allocate manpower to mine discovered mineral deposits.

Thus, mercenary groups usually choose to sell those minerals.

Once notarized by Danerluo Port, mercenary groups naturally won’t worry about large forces forcibly seizing them.

Regarding the discovered mineral deposit, the Frost Wolf Mercenary Corps and the Phoenix Mercenary Corps decided to determine ownership through a duel.

Of course, this was previously notarized by Kane Floating City, ensuring neither side can break the agreement under Floating City’s supervision.

The duel date is set for three days later.

If Gray and the others were arrested for fighting in Danerluo Port, they would miss the duel in three days.

If Gray, the strongest in the Frost Wolf Mercenary Corps, were absent, it would undoubtedly be very disadvantageous.

In contrast, Lina had fewer concerns.

Lina acted as she did earlier to provoke Gray and the others into making the first move.

If that happened, undoubtedly the punishment for the opponent would be more severe.

Lina watched the Dawn Church patrol approaching and secretly cursed.

Had she known beforehand, she would’ve directly acted without unnecessary pretense.

Even if the opponent was prepared and didn’t face punishment for acting first, injuring a few people could still be helpful for the upcoming duel.

Now, nothing has been accomplished.

Lina felt somewhat irritated, but as the Dawn Church patrol was already close, she didn’t dare do anything further.

“What’s going on here?”

The patrol from Dawn Church approached both sides. The leading paladin looked at Lina and asked.

“We got carried away earlier, apologies, willing to accept the penalty.”

In front of the paladin, Lina dropped her cunning intentions and spoke honestly.

“Alright.”

The paladin nodded without saying much.

They had come directly upon receiving the warning from Kane Floating City via magic items.

Since there was no obvious fluctuation of Extraordinary Power or significant loss, they only asked both sides to pay fines to the White Dove Chamber of Commerce.

Gray furrowed his brows but didn’t say anything more.

Even though they hadn’t attacked, only unsheathed their weapons, they were still subjected to the same penalty as the Phoenix Mercenary Corps.

But in Danerluo Port, confronting the patrol is definitely unwise.

Thus, Gray also calmed his teammates and refrained from any impulsive actions.

Glancing at Lina and her group, Gray led his team away directly, not even caring about the sword they had been looking at earlier.
