Chapter 145 Donghai Academy
On the way , Xiao Ding suddenly asked:
"Brother Su Ren, do you know something?"
Su Ren raised his eyelids.
"What's up?"
"Kyoto seems to be a bit uneasy lately. Dozens of professionals have disappeared in the past ten days."
"And they are all professionals above level 4."
"There have been some missing in the past, but most of them were killed by monsters while leveling up in dungeons."
Xiao Ding paused and continued:
"This disappearance is a bit strange. Most of those professionals disappeared at home."
"There was no sign of a fight at the crime scene. It was as if it had disappeared out of thin air."
"The Ministry of Defense started investigating a few days ago, but after so much time, there has no progress."
"This incident caused panic in the entire Kyoto, and many people left Kyoto to seek refuge in other places."
"Some say it's haunted, some say there are monsters that eat people, anyway, there are all kinds of rumors, and the rumors are getting more and more bizarre, even I'm a little scared."
"It's a good opportunity to leave Kyoto and hide away."
After Su Ren heard what Xiao Ding said, for some reason he immediately thought of the scene when he met Lin Shengan that day.
That person seemed to be emitting a biting aura.
"Brother Su Ren, in your opinion, what is going on?"
Suren shook his head.
"have no idea."
He is not a detective, so matters like this can only be left to official investigation.
Kyoto is the capital of the Dragon Kingdom, and it is impossible to allow the other party to continue to be so arrogant.
Whatever is causing the trouble will be caught.
No conversation along the way.
When the two arrived at the teleportation array square, it was already crowded with people.
Judging from the panicked expressions of these people, they probably all want to flee to other places.
Xiao Ding frowned and said:
"It seems that the impact of this matter is greater than expected!"
The two waited for more than an hour before it was their turn.
After stepping onto the teleportation array and selecting a city, in a flash of light, the two of them arrived at the coastal city.
"I don't know who installed and invented this directional teleportation array. I'm afraid this speed is comparable to your spatial skills, right?"
Xiao Ding sighed and walked down from the teleportation array with Su Ren.
Suren nodded, "Faster than mine."
Su Ren had looked up information about this teleportation array and found that it had existed before the establishment of Dragon Kingdom.
Like the Temple of Awakening, it was built by an unknown force.
No country in the world has any information to find out who built them.
It's as if it appeared out of thin air.
Moreover, the longest time that countries around the world can trace back to their origins is one thousand years.
There is no information from a thousand years ago, and there is a huge gap in human history.
Or is there no history going back a thousand years at all?
Without thinking about it, Su Ren looked around at the surrounding environment.
Haibin City, the easternmost city of Dragon Country, is backed by the East China Sea. Among all the capitals of Dragon Country, Haibin City ranks second in strength, second only to Kyoto.
Moreover, every year, a large number of professionals die in the coastal city while defending against attacks by monsters in the ocean.
It is also one of the most dangerous places in any big city.
Standing in the teleportation square, you can smell the fishy scent of the sea breeze with just a slight sniff.
"Let's go to the Flying Boat Transport Center. They are already waiting there."
"Brother Su Ren, the people I invited are all from the East Sea Academy. They may be a bit arrogant, so please bear with them."
Su Ren nodded upon hearing this.
The Donghai Academy seemed to have stricter entry requirements than the Longwu Guild.
They never actively recruit people. If someone wants to enter the East China Sea Academy, they must be recommended by a large family and then pass the examination before they can enter.
It is also because of this that anyone picked at the East China Sea Academy is related to a large family.
The reason why the East China Sea Academy is so powerful is that it has close ties with many aristocratic families.
If the Longwu Guild is a paradise for students from poor families, then the Donghai Academy is a paradise for wealthy families.
The two major forces target completely different groups.
…
Flying Boat Transportation Center.
Two middle-aged men in their forties were waiting at the door with seven or eight young men.
"Brother, why hasn't Xiao Ding come yet? We've been waiting for him for more than an hour."
"Wait until he comes and ask him, do you really regard us brothers as servants' bodyguards?"
Just as the two were getting impatient, a taxi stopped by the roadside.
Xiao Ding and Su Ren got out of the car.
Seeing the two people coming over, the boss Cao Bufan snorted coldly:
"Mr. Xiao, you are really busy? What time is it? Is this how you do business at Dingsheng Group?"
Xiao Ding quickly apologized and explained:
"Sorry, it's my fault. Something happened in Kyoto recently. There were too many people at the teleportation array. I had to wait for more than an hour."
Seeing that he had a good attitude, Cao Bufan softened his attitude as he was still an employee after all.
But when he saw Su Ren, Cao Bufan frowned and said:
"Who is this? You didn't say you wanted to protect other people, did you?"
Xiao Ding smiled and said:
"Oh, this is a friend of mine. Don't worry about him. He's quite capable."
"Humph, wearing a mask in broad daylight, what's so shameful about that?"
Cao Bufan snorted coldly, then said impatiently:
"Let's go, the flying boat will set off soon."
At this time, Xiao Ding also discovered the few young men following Cao Bufan.
"Elder Cao, who are these people behind you?"
"Some juniors in the academy heard that I was going to escort you to attend the gathering of the world's wealthy businessmen, and they wanted to go with me to see the scenery."
"this……"
Xiao Ding said somewhat unhappy:
"Elder Cao, we agreed that you would bring a few powerful professionals with you, but you..."
"Hmm? Boss Xiao, are you questioning my brother's strength? We brothers are enough to protect you!"
"As for these younger generations, you don't need to worry about them."
Xiao Ding was slightly angry when he heard this. He spent billions to hire these two people.
Not only did these two people disrespect him, they even brought others along without his consent.
The two men didn't take him as their employer seriously at all.
Seeing Xiao Ding not moving, the second-in-command Cao beside him said in a cold voice:
"Boss Xiao, we two brothers didn't say anything when you brought people with you without permission, right?"
"What? We can't bring anyone with us?"
Xiao Ding originally wanted to say that he was the one who spent the money and he was the employer.
But after thinking about it, he decided to give up. There was no need for him to offend both of them.
These two people are elders of the East China Sea Academy. With various relationships connected together, his Dingsheng Group may not be their opponent.
"Okay, let's go."
Xiao Ding took Su Ren to the flying boat .
"Haha, did you see that, kids? Chairman of Dingsheng Group, so what?"
"You still have to listen to us two brothers."
Several young men behind the two men laughed at the same time:
“Hahahaha, you’re worthy of being Elder Cao!”
Cao Bufan chuckled and said:
"Let's go, get on the flying boat and I'll take you to broaden your horizons."
