Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 2105: Race Annihilation Battle (2)

"What are you looking at? Get lost!"

The Huaitang Clan occupied a large area in Dark Strip City, located in the northeast corner of the city. Basically, all three blocks here were their territory. The outermost block was for ordinary residents, who were the most numerous and usually responsible for production and labor.

The middle block housed some warriors and mid-level members. There were also some simple training grounds here, as well as various types of manufacturing workshops and factories.

The last block, also the one close to the city wall, was the true core of the Huaitang Clan. Here, there were not only advanced and formal training grounds but also forging grounds, research rooms, and laboratories with high levels of confidentiality. Of course, this was also the station of the Huaitang Clan's military forces and the residence of various high-ranking members.

The place where the two Star-Eye Clan leaders had taken their people was precisely there.

As a race that had existed for quite a few years, the Huaitang Clan naturally had its own imposing side. The core building of the race was a manor, the design of which should have come from a master's hand. The layout of the hills and waters was harmonious and beautiful.

In the very center of the manor was a low but quite large and magnificent building, also the core within the core of the Huaitang Clan, and moreover, the clan leader's residence. The meeting room was here, and inside at that moment, an extortion that the entire Huaitang Clan knew about was taking place.

However, although only six people from the Star-Eye Clan had entered, there were actually several hundred guards from their escort force waiting not far outside the manor's entrance. For some unknown reason, a few Star-Eye clansmen suddenly walked up to the manor's entrance and peered inside.

The Huaitang Clan guards, who had long found the Star-Eye Clan disagreeable, immediately came out to rebuke them.

They had never been to the Star-Eye Clan's underground fortress complex, so naturally, they didn't know what it looked like. However, in their minds, it must be a run-down place. The few photos that had leaked out were probably of the best buildings inside.Thus, in their hearts, the Star-Eye Clan people were just country bumpkins who had never seen such a magnificent manor.

Of course, the cosmic races were different from the situation on Earth. Although people on Earth had different skin colors and ethnicities, they were still one race. But the cosmic races were not like that, so their understanding of other races sometimes deviated to an unacceptable degree.

"You're not allowing people to look here? Then why don't you just build a wall? Blocking the view with only low shrubs and flower beds like this—isn't it meant for people to look at?"

Bashilu glared, showing no signs of backing down. He was originally the leader of the clan leader's guard, so his presence here was also quite normal.

"Look again, and I'll gouge your eyes out."

It was true that Bashilu was an expert of the Star-Eye Clan, but the one responsible for guarding the main gate today was also an expert of the Huaitang Clan. Moreover, right now, at the critical moment just before departing for the Planet Hunting Grounds, there was a departing contingent of over forty thousand warriors inside the manor, which constituted the majority of the Huaitang Clan's fighters and elite. He wasn't afraid of these Star-Eye Clan people making trouble at all.

In the surrounding area alone, the Huaitang Clan had over three hundred guards, not too many fewer than the Star-Eye Clan. So they truly weren't afraid of this Star-Eye Clan's head trainer and the clan leader's guard captain.

"Who the hell are you going to gouge eyes out on?"

A deputy behind Bashilu, upon hearing this, wouldn't stand for it. He stepped forward, glaring at this Huaitang Clan guard, his fists clenched tightly.

"Gouge your eyes out. What? You still dare to talk to me like that? Are you tired of living?!"

How could this Huaitang Clan head be afraid of the Star-Eye Clan? Not only did he curse back, but he even directly shoved that deputy of Bashilu's aside.

They were all experts of exceptional strength. With this shove, the unprepared deputy was sent flying a good distance. The friction of his boots on the ground left two shallow marks on the road. His body was caught by his Star-Eye Clan comrades behind him before he stopped.

This deputy looked down and saw that the equipment on his chest was already dented. It was clear the other party had used force; without protection, he definitely would have been injured.

"Damn it!"

Bashilu's deputy immediately rushed back, followed by the Star-Eye Clan warriors present.

Seeing their own deputy leader being bullied, and sharing a common hatred of the enemy, they naturally had to go and help. Thus, Star-Eye Clan and Huaitang Clan members crowded over.

Seeing the two sides entangled here, nearby Huaitang Clan guards and some passing residents immediately rushed over as well. For a moment, the area was in chaos.

However, given this kind of incident, everyone knew it wouldn't cause too much trouble. After all, the clan leaders of both sides were still negotiating inside, and they were about to depart for the Planet Hunting Grounds. At most, they would exchange blows with fists and stop once they had bloody noses and swollen faces.

But after a short while, teams of Star-Eye Clan people wearing city guard uniforms arrived. Numbering at least five hundred by the look of it, they held weapons and roughly separated the two sides. In this process, naturally, the Huaitang Clan suffered quite a few losses.

The members of the Huaitang Clan were unwilling to accept this. These Star-Eye Clan city guards were clearly biased in breaking up the fight. If it had been the other Eight Heads, that would be one thing, but what right did the Star-Eye Clan have to be so overbearing?

These people used to only live underground, living like insects. Now that they had become city guards, they thought they were something special? Didn't they know their place?

Soon, someone went back to inform the clan. The steward responsible for the manor's security, upon hearing this, didn't think much of it either. With this kind of minor conflict, the high-ranking members of both sides would eventually turn a blind eye and let it slide, even if... people had died.

However, he didn't intend to let the Star-Eye Clan off just like that. He checked the time, then called someone over and said, "Go find Long Zhixiang. Have him send two thousand people from the departing contingent to the entrance to take a look. Teach those Star-Eye Clan people a lesson. Keep things under control, don't kill too many—one or two is enough. Then drive the Star-Eye Clan out of our block."

After issuing the order, this manor's chief steward continued to pace leisurely in front of the core building. His strength wasn't great, but he had a good background, knew how to handle things, was smooth and comprehensive, and possessed considerable managerial talent. That's why he could become the manor's chief steward.

He was very clear about what was happening inside at that moment, and even knew the demands the Huaitang Clan would make. He was beaming inwardly, thinking that after this matter was settled, the Huaitang Clan should be able to catch their breath.

The seventy or eighty million Moonspan Gold from the previous period had nearly pushed the Huaitang Clan to a dead end. Not only were the clan's funds drained, but they had also sold off quite a bit of their assets. Clan members receiving wages were informed that, for at least two cosmic years, they would receive only minimum living allowances, and that even some high-level equipment and properties in the front two blocks had been sold.

This was unavoidable. It was already good that the Huaitang Clan had managed to scrape together so much money by selling off everything. For other races, they would probably be bankrupt by now.

Fortunately, there were these people to help make up for it. The steward stopped at the main entrance. This was his favorite spot, giving him an indescribable feeling of becoming the Huaitang Clan's clan leader.

But the steward's eye seemed to catch a black shadow. He wanted to look up, but before he could make any move, his body shook violently. He stared incredulously at a giant spear, longer than his body, that had pierced through his body, pinning him to the ground.

Just before dying, a realization dawned on the steward.

The city wall... the city guards...
