Chapter 219 An Unexpected Joy
"The bombs in our stockpile aren't high enough. To deal with a Contra, we need at least level six soul-guided shells. We can't make them in time right now, and Li Yuanren probably won't be able to wait that long," Ye Nanxiao said, troubled.
Previously, he used up all the level 6 soul-guided cannonballs he had on hand to deal with the Dark Night Guild. Those things were something that "Xiao Nanye" had gone through a lot of trouble to obtain. Currently, this alias is in a gray state.
Wang Yu still kept the relevant confidential documents in a locked drawer in his office.
Ye Nanxiao used the same trick again and took out the information.
According to the information, Feng Shu had multiple residences in Mingdu, but he rarely went home or stayed at the competition venue. Instead, he was a VIP customer of various hotels in Mingdu.
"Tsk tsk tsk, how did this guy manage to collect all the VIP cards from all the high-end hotels in Mingdu? The value of those cards is incredible. He's probably used them up almost completely." Ye Nanxiao praised expressionlessly.
Ye Nanxiao took out a map of Mingdu and marked all of Feng Shuzhan's residences and the arenas under Feng Shuzhan's control.
After noting down several locations where Feng Shuzhan might frequently appear, Ye Nanxiao put on a disguise mask and, under the cover of the Silent Bead, created a second version of himself, while his real body quietly slipped out of Arena No. 2.
Ye Nanxiao transformed himself, disguising himself as a tall, thin young man with dark circles under his eyes, clearly someone who needed the support of a certain brand of medication recommended by Zi Qiao.
Feng Shuzhen is in charge of Arena No. 5, which is located near the industrial area of the Ordinary Alliance.
Because it is close to the territory of the Ordinary Alliance, the fifth arena is far inferior to the top ten arenas in terms of both scale and resources, but Feng Shuzhan insisted on choosing the fifth arena.
After traveling for an hour, Ye Nanxiao entered a street established by the Ordinary Alliance.
The surrounding buildings were decorated with pink lights, and the air was filled with the scent of rouge. Surprisingly, the entire street smelled the same, with no other brands of rouge mixed in.
There were many elegantly dressed young women strolling in groups on the street, and through the glass, you could see that many of the buildings housed bars or similar businesses.
Ye Nanxiao felt that he was being watched by the women around him, their unbridled gazes scanning him back and forth.
"How strange, this mask looks rather profound. Could it be that there's something wrong with my aesthetic sense?" Ye Nanxiao frowned slightly, not understanding why the women around him were all looking at him.
"Hello, would you like a drink made by my sister?" As Ye Nanxiao passed by a tavern, a boldly dressed woman sitting at the entrance raised her glass and said.
Ye Nanxiao glanced at the woman and walked past with a disdainful expression.
If someone isn't broad-minded enough, the drinks they make probably won't taste very good either.
As Ye Nanxiao walked to the center of the block, a building called the Five Auspicious Hotels caught his attention. Soul Masters were coming in and out of the hotel one after another, and some of them had several boldly dressed women hanging on their backs.
"Right next to the arena is the largest property of the Ordinary Alliance in this district. No wonder Feng Shuzhan wanted to manage Arena No. 5." Ye Nanxiao refused some women who wanted to force their way in and quickly walked into the arena.
After paying the ticket fee, Ye Nanxiao sat in the audience, watching the Soul Master competition on the field while observing the situation.
Five female referees sat on the referee's bench, their name tags, representing silver-level referees, lying quietly on their chests, unlike Wang Yu and the others, whose name tags were hung vertically on their chests.
The referees standing at the edge of the field were all tall and had impressive physiques.
Ye Nanxiao suddenly understood Feng Shuchan's joy and pain.
The joy of being surrounded and the pain of being overwhelmed.
After observing for a while and memorizing the general structure of Arena No. 5, Ye Nanxiao got up and left the audience seats. When he walked into the shadows, a faint soul power fluctuation emanated from his body, and ice mirrors quietly appeared.
Because the arena was filled with dense soul power fluctuations, none of the silver-ranked referees noticed anything unusual.
Bypassing the warning device, Ye Nanxiao entered the arena.
There were very few referees inside the stadium, and even staff members were rarely seen.
This puzzled Ye Nanxiao. He walked to a room that looked like a conference room, unlocked the door, and found the huge room empty except for some cardboard boxes in the corner.
Ye Nanxiao left the room, restored the door lock to its original state, and opened several rooms along the way, all of which were empty, even the room marked "Office" was empty.
"Something's not right. Old Wang even sleeps in his office, which is located in the underground arena in Mingdu. Even if Arena No. 5 is close to the territory of the Ordinary Alliance, there's no reason why his office would be empty." Ye Nanxiao thought to himself, hiding in a dark corner.
A series of footsteps in the distance interrupted Ye Nanxiao's thoughts. Ye Nanxiao tensed up and raised his vigilance to the highest level.
Two daringly dressed women walked by, one of them complaining, "I'm exhausted. I'm practically falling apart from noon until now, and that bastard still isn't satisfied. He called over a few more of his girlfriends."
Listening to the two women's complaints, Ye Nanxiao suddenly realized that the two women were dressed the same way as the woman who had just invited him to drink.
"Feng Shu is indulging in wine and women, and this place is close to the Ordinary Alliance." Ye Nanxiao raised an eyebrow and quickly walked towards the direction from which the two women had come.
As Ye Nanxiao passed by a gate, he suddenly had a premonition. He stopped and looked at the gate, sensing that something good was behind it.
The lock on this gate was more sophisticated than the ones Ye Nanxiao had encountered before.
"The soul guide device produced by Mingdetang is a cheap product with a standard level of security. It will trigger an alarm after two incorrect token keys, which means there should be something good behind the door." Ye Nanxiao squatted in front of the lock and carefully observed its structure.
With his mental power intruding, Ye Nanxiao built a model of the lock's structure in his mind, constantly simulating the method of hacking into the lock.
Ye Nanxiao quickly found a route to infiltrate the lock. He opened the first lock using the key he deduced from the model disassembly, placed his palm on the lock, destroyed part of the core magic array that had triggered the alarm, and ran it through the trajectory of the soul power within the metal.
After spending a full half hour unlocking the door, Ye Nanxiao opened it a crack and slipped inside, leaving one of his clones outside to keep watch before closing and locking the door.
Ye Nanxiao had left a backup plan with the door lock, ensuring that he could open it from the inside.
After walking a few steps, a downward staircase appeared, each step emitting a faint blue light, clearly some kind of soul tool.
Ye Nanxiao conjured a piece of floating ice, stepped on it, and floated down.
When Ye Nanxiao floated to the bottom, a huge warehouse appeared before him.
Rows of soul tools, each protected by a special soul tool storage device, were neatly arranged, with labels on the lower right corner of the protective shield.
After carefully observing and confirming the location of the early warning soul tools, Ye Nanxiao cautiously bypassed all the locations of the early warning soul tools and walked to the innermost part.
As his feelings grew stronger, Ye Nanxiao slowly floated inside. After pushing open a thick metal door, the scene before him instantly put him on high alert.
Each transparent cabinet contained a layer of special gelatinous substance, while soul-guided cannonballs, exuding a terrifying aura, lay silently inside.
Even through the specially made transparent cabinet, Ye Nanxiao could feel the terrifying aura of the soul-guided cannonball.
"Level 8 Soul Guidance Shells! There are a full twenty of them!" Ye Nanxiao came to his senses and quickly summoned ice mirrors to protect the area around him.
After recovering, Ye Nanxiao felt that something was increasingly wrong at Arena No. 5. An idea formed in Ye Nanxiao's mind: "Feng Shuzhan, the vice president of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, may have been pretending to be a lecherous man all along, secretly collecting supplies."
However, Ye Nanxiao rejected this idea. If that were the case, the defenses here wouldn't be so rudimentary.
Just as Ye Nanxiao was wondering, a series of footsteps and voices came from behind him.
Ye Nanxiao held his breath, his eyes fixed on the metal door.
A burst of women's laughter rang out, along with several men's voices.
The metal door opened, and a pale-faced man with unsteady steps walked in, carrying two women in his arms.
"Young Master Feng, what reward can we take home this time?" a woman with heavy eye makeup asked in a coquettish voice.
"Besides soul tools, you can take any rare metals here that catch your eye!" the man said magnanimously, waving his hand.
"Young Master Feng is so amazing~" another woman said sweetly.
The man smiled and moved his hands around, eliciting complaints from the two women.
"The warehouse storing level-eight soul-guided cannonballs and precious rare metals could only be entered by either a trusted confidant or Feng Shuzhan. This man in front of me can even let the woman take away rare metals at will. If he can control the rare metals in the arena, this man in front of me is most likely Feng Shuzhan." Ye Nanxiao frowned and moved slowly. If a fight broke out here and accidentally hit a level-eight soul-guided cannonball, a full twenty level-eight fixed-position soul-guided cannonballs would not only blow the entire block into the sky, but this business district would also be doomed.
"Young Master Feng, why are there so many shells here?" asked the woman with heavy eye makeup.
Feng Shu looked at the cabinet containing the soul-guided cannon shells and said, "Some of them were temporarily transported here by the Chamber of Commerce, and some were given by your boss."
"The big boss? The big boss of the Ordinary Alliance, could it be Shangguan Wei'er?" Ye Nanxiao analyzed the information brought by Feng Shuzhan's words.
"Could it be that Shangguan Wei'er is planning to join forces with the Aodu Chamber of Commerce? Or has she managed to turn Feng Shuzhan, the vice president of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, against her?"
"Young Master Feng, I want this Star Silver!" "I want this Silver Mother!"
Feng Shu, with a look of enjoyment on his face, said, "Good, good, good! Take it all!"
After watching Feng Shuzhan leave with the two women and confirming that they were gone, Ye Nanxiao finally revealed himself.
He walked up to a transparent cabinet, unleashed his spiritual power, surrounded the cabinet, and penetrated inside to observe its structure and core magic array.
Ye Nanxiao reached out and pressed his hand on the surface of the cabinet, and fine ice threads spread out and seeped into all the gaps in the cabinet.
After about half an hour of using the silencing bead, Ye Nanxiao successfully opened a cabinet.
Ye Nanxiao took out a specially made burlap sack and used it to trap the soul-guided cannonballs. He put a similar-looking level-seven soul-guided cannonball inside, then closed the cabinet door. Ye Nanxiao did the same thing, taking a few from different areas and trapping a total of five soul-guided cannonballs.
"I never expected such a pleasant surprise!" Ye Nanxiao put away the sack, his eyes gleaming with gold.
"Shangguan Wei'er's situation is probably not very optimistic, otherwise such precious soul-guided cannonballs wouldn't be left with Feng Shuzhan. Moreover, Feng Shuzhan should have become a traitor, so it seems we don't need to take any action." Ye Nanxiao attached tiny signal soul-guided devices to the bottom of each transparent cabinet and quietly left.
