Chapter 110: Chapter 100 Celebration
“`
The Wild Wolf Gang, one of the gang forces in the outer southern area of South City, rose to power much like many other fluctuating outer city forces, through the remarkable talents and decent strength of its founder.
With Grade A “Agility,” even just with ordinary combat skills, the status of Grade A still earned him some initial investment.
It gave this lone wolf, who came from the bottom of the outer city, the capital to rise.
Having talent, daring to stake his life, plus some sponsorship and luck, ultimately led to the present Wild Wolf Gang, which had a resounding reputation across the whole southern area. The gang leader of the Wild Wolf Gang also self-proclaimed himself the Wolf King, and he had four top lieutenants under him.
He controlled the gambling dens and flesh businesses in two of the town fortresses and also had a supply channel for ‘happiness’ from Inner City.
Sustained by the gang’s provisions, this Wolf King, who had the chance to enter Inner City but still chose to stay rooted in the outer city, was indeed among the top tier there.
Because of this, the Wild Wolf Gang had a separate small base in the outer city.
The exterior was similar to a fortress, encircled with barbed wire and discarded oil drums, and inside densely resided some of the core members of the Wild Wolf Gang.
Although smaller in scale compared to those fortresses, this was an area exclusively belonging to the Wild Wolf Gang.
Beyond this core mini-fortress, the residences of some other members of the Wild Wolf Gang surrounded the area, which was already quite impressive in the outer city.
And these past few days, the stronghold of the Wild Wolf Gang was lit up throughout the night, with the oil lamps burning all night long, and from time to time, there would be bursts of cheers and laughter…
In the center of the stronghold, it wasn’t where the gang leader, the Wolf King, resided, but rather a warehouse-like hall.

It was in the center of this warehouse, today there was a tall bonfire, and with the oil lamps lit up around it, despite lacking any circuitry, it was still quite bright inside.
In front of the bonfire, some unknown types of meat were being roasted, a large group of people reveling without restraint, holding big bowls of liquor and taking big bites of meat.
Some were even using ‘happiness’, or puffing smoke, filling the air with a smoky smell.
“Brothers, we’ve recently managed to suppress the Skull Gang, and although our turf hasn’t expanded much, our income sources have at least increased by a quarter!”
In front of the fire in the C-spot area, a lean man under one meter seventy stood up, raising his wooden wine cup with a domineering shout that did not match his frame.
The muddy liquor spilled out, and this Wolf King of the southern area successfully ignited the atmosphere at the scene, drawing cheers.
An increase in income sources by a quarter meant that everyone’s Yuan Force income could increase too!
Being able to maintain such a vast gang, the Wolf King had the lion’s share, but the distribution was still quite fair, at least their core members earned far more than the ordinary people of the outer city.
“Here, we’ve got to thank our young master, Wino. If not for him, that old skull wouldn’t have given in so easily.
“But everyone still needs to be on guard. That old skull is certainly biding his time, plotting mischief. We can’t let the meat that’s at our mouths be spat out again.”
The Wolf King once again thanked Wino sitting next to him, and Wino, now having put aside much of his pride as an Inner City rich kid, also raised his cup and said,
“Be it the outer city or Inner City, we speak with strength. Every rule and regulation waits to be broken. As long as strength is on our side, you needn’t worry about the Skull Gang’s retaliation.”
“Thank you, Young Master Wino!”
“Thank you for the gang leader’s generosity!”
“Long live the Wild Wolf Gang!”
“Hahaha!”
“…”
There was no formal meeting like a company conference. These kinds of gang gatherings were so simple and unsophisticated, a group of people revelling heedlessly.
As everyone entered a time of celebration and revelry, the Wolf King turned back to Wino with a smile and said,
“Young Master Wino, everything is ready now, but do we really have to wait so long for that kid? You want me to pull some strings?”
“Don’t mess around.”
Wino quickly stopped him, but then went on with a somewhat gloomy face,
“Whether he’s flying a false flag or not, he has agreed, so we’ll let him do his thing for now. The longer he takes, the better prepared we’ll be.”
“Is he that important?”
The Wolf King was somewhat astonished.
In truth, he only said that to tease a bit. With Tao Yu getting support from Wanliu Dojo and the proxy deputy captain, he would not touch bad luck without having strong backing.
But seeing Wino’s attitude, it seemed he really placed great importance on that kid.
Although he shared a Grade A talent not inferior to his own, in the outer city area, a Grade A talent was not necessarily guaranteed a smooth growth!
It was precisely because the gap with the foundation of the Inner City Area was too vast, and his talent wasn’t fit for mechanical enhancements or alien implantations, that the Wolf King chose rather to be a free overlord in the outer city area.
“It’s very important. His role in this rescue operation is as critical as my two friends. Those aliens are extremely adept at ambushes. His Grade A Dynamic Vision is not only quick to shape into combat strength but will also help in giving advance warnings.”
As Wino said this, a cruel smile spread across his face,
“But a loser who cannot see his own situation, thinking he’s got me cornered, will surely get a taste of his own medicine once I’m out of danger!”
Initially, Wino didn’t think much of Tao Yu and had already lowered his posture and pride. However, Tao Yu took the opportunity to extort him mercilessly.
This was a grievance he truly couldn’t swallow!
“Haha, find me when you need help with that, just say the word.”
The Wolf King said cheerfully but inwardly looked down on Wino a bit.
So petty. The resources have already been invested, why not treat it as an investment to turn hostility into friendship?
He himself rose from having a Grade A talent in the outer city. Pssh, Inner City folks really don’t know how to play the game.
Even though Wino’s talent didn’t seem impressive to the Wolf King, being from an Inner City family with alien ancestry and having access to a cheaper ‘happiness’ supply, as long as…
Creak creak~
Although the place had become somewhat noisy, the Wolf King, with his Grade A “Agility” and a host of related skills, still keenly detected an unusual sound. He then frowned and stood up, looking toward the direction of the gate.
“`
“What’s wrong?”
Wino asked the guy, as he seemed a bit off.
“Don’t know, there’s some noise at the main gate, like the friction of metal chains.”
The Wolf King was also a bit uncertain; his banquet hall was simply a warehouse, with metal doors that were currently closed. There were also younger brothers standing guard outside, but this abrupt noise had sparked a sense of unease in him.
“Knife-Eye, go take a look at the gate, will you?”
The Wolf King turned to a muscular man who was reaching his hand inside a dancer’s clothes and ordered.
The man with a scar over one eye grumbled a bit, then reluctantly stood up and walked towards the main gate.
However, before he even reached the gate—
Bang~
A bullet had already pierced through his head, bringing up a spray of blood.
Ratatat~ Ratatat~
The sound of an assault rifle’s burst fire followed.
“Pfft~”
“Enemy attack! Ugh…”
“Where?”
“Who is it?”
“Who…”
“…”
As the bullets poured down, what was once a joyous atmosphere instantly turned into a bloodbath, a scene of carnage!
Even though these men were the core members of the Wild Wolf Gang, the real elites!
Even though the weakest among them possessed the limits of human physical strength, with many mastering Grade 5 skills, each individual could be considered a powerhouse in the Outer City.
Grade C combat talents were commonplace, and there were four or five at Grade B.
But against bullets aimed precisely at their heads, their mortal bodies were meaningless!
Human limits?
If the skull is blown open, one is still doomed!
Grade 5 skills?
There isn’t even a chance to fire back once the bullet hits the brain!
All the hard training, all the hidden cards, all the strength became irrelevant in the face of that lone figure unceasingly firing his dual-wielded assault rifles!
Just one man managed to achieve complete fire suppression, just one man turned it into a one-sided massacre!
Fully armed with a tactical suit, his face entirely concealed by a tactical helmet.
Dual-wielded assault rifles, with four more slung on his back.
No need to reload the magazines, just throw the spent one away, grabbing a new one and resuming the shooting.
The enemy casually strolled through the hall like it was a garden, taking lives with each step, as if performing a deadly waltz.
Whoever ran fast was targeted, whoever tried to take cover got shot, whoever tried to reach for a gun died!
The occasional precise counter-shots seemed to be anticipated by him, not by rapid movements, but he always managed to let the bullets whiz past.
And the few who had a chance to strike back were promptly targeted and couldn’t even start a second round.
After just two rounds, only three or four people remained, hiding behind cover within the once-cheerful hall…
“Skull Gang! How dare you!”
Having dodged to cover through the barrage due to his talent and ability, the Wolf King caught a glimpse of the assailant’s gear.
A standard set of tactical equipment.
But his combat suit, bulletproof vest, tactical helmet, even the assault rifle in his hands, all bore the unique skull mark of the Skull Gang.
Just one man!
Merely one single man had almost completely wiped out his laboriously gathered elite underlings!
The hatred he felt even outweighed the fear in the Wolf King’s heart.
Who?!
Who on earth was it?!
There must have been a traitor who led them here!
Otherwise, how could they bypass such tight security and sneak in unnoticed?
What about the people outside?
Were they all dead? Why was there no sound or warning?
If there had been as much as a hint, it wouldn’t have come to this!
They could have riddled the enemy with bullets had they faced him just one on one!
