Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting

Chapter 577 – Black Horn City

“The city we are about to enter is called Black Horn City. It is ranked fifth among the seven overlord cities. The overlord calls himself the Black Horn Great God and is a god-rank powerhouse. It is said that he is very strong.”

Lan Xuanyu whispered, “Captain, there should be more than seven god-rank powerhouses in our human race. If the Federation invites them, would it be possible to work together to destroy these…”

Upon hearing this, Deng Bo quickly gestured for him to keep quiet. “Be careful, don’t speak nonsense. There are many monitoring devices here. The Federation had tried this before, but they were forced to retreat. At that time, the Federation had mobilized 10 god-rank powerhouses. However, Heaven Planet is their home ground. They seemed to be somehow able to borrow the power of the planet here, but I’m not sure what it was exactly. But in the end, we didn’t win and were forced to retreat. From then on, the Federation never tried again. According to our Tang Sect’s intelligence, it’s not that we can’t destroy this place, but we would have to pay a huge price. The Federation’s god-rank powerhouses are limited in number as well. During our interstellar colonization, there are many times when we need their support. If we lose too many god-rank powerhouses, it will affect the Federation’s safety. This is at a military strategic level. That’s why we allowed Heaven Planet to exist until now.”

Lan Xuanyu narrowed his eyes. This Heaven Planet was stronger than he imagined! contemporary romance

Deng Bo sighed softly. “It was also after that battle that Heaven Planet became even more influential. In the past few decades, it has expanded quite a bit and is now infiltrating the Federation. That is why the Federation has sent a large force to suppress them from the outside world.”

After passing through a vu tunnel and passing through the Black Horn Army’s encampment, the entire Black Horn City appeared before their eyes.

The city was very big and very unique. A gigantic metal wall over a hundred meters tall covered the entire city. The metal wall extended to both sides, and there was no end in sight.

This wasn’t targeted at enemies from space but at the other lords of Heaven Planet. In the early years, there were countless battles on Heaven Planet and all the major forces fought against each other. After many years, they were finally ruled by a few god-rank powerhouses and truly stabilized.

On the metal walls, there were a large number of various offensive and defensive soul devices. It was a dazzling sight and was simply like a military fortress. This was something Lan Xuanyu and his team had never seen before.

When they entered through a special passageway, they still needed to show a nameplate to verify their entry. This process wasn’t very strict. As long as they had their space pirate certificate registered on Heaven Planet, they could enter. Lan Xuanyu and his team’s identities were already prepared and it was very easy to enter.

Upon entering Black Horn City, Lan Xuanyu and the rest immediately felt as though they had entered a completely different world.

Compared to the silence outside the metal wall, this place was extremely noisy. All sorts of noises filled every corner.

The most peculiar thing was that they saw many different creatures. That’s right, they were creatures.

Not only humans, but there were also some strange-looking creatures.

A six-legged octopus? What a big head!

“Don’t keep staring at any living creature,” Deng Bo reminded everyone. “Those that are able to enter the city are all intelligent creatures. Some of them are from other planets. The reason why Heaven Planet is so flourishing is closely related to them. They will bring many resources from other planets that even our Federation doesn’t have. Following the Federation’s colonization, most of the extraterrestrial creatures aren’t very friendly to us. But at least within this galaxy, our Douluo Federation is considered a powerful force.”

Lan Xuanyu’s team of seven had an eye-opener. This was their first time seeing so many extraterrestrials, and it was simply strange.

Some were especially tall and were over ten meters tall. Their skin was also colorful.

After walking into the city for a while, they saw over a dozen alien races.

Of course, humans were still the mainstream, but most of them were humans with implants. Hence, metallic clangs were a huge part of the noise.

This was truly a different world! The streets were wide and there were shops on both sides, but as far as the eye could see, there weren’t many high-rise buildings and most of them were only one or two-story houses.

There wasn’t much vegetation in the city and most of the houses were made of stone or metal. There wasn’t any unique style and they were slightly messy.

But it had to be said that there were many people here. The streets were bustling with activity and people were everywhere.

Deng Bo led them along the edge of the street and said as they walked, “Those who can open a store on Heaven Planet all have a certain background, and most of them are related to various pirate groups. It is where the major pirate groups sell their loot. Heaven Planet is the most important transit station for pirates and even more so for those from other planets. Although transactions here are not completely safe, they can still be done.”

Lan Xuanyu asked curiously, “How many space pirates are there exactly?”

Deng Bo said, “I don’t know the exact number, but there are probably over 10,000 interstellar pirate groups registered on Heaven Planet and they are of different sizes. But some of them have been destroyed, while some have been taken over. There shouldn’t be so many pirate groups that actually exist.”

“More than 10,000? That much? Are they all targeting our Federation?” Lan Xuanyu asked in surprise.

Deng Bo said, “Not all of them make a living by robbing, and they’re not just robbing us either. They will also rob those other planets. After all, the Federation is quite strong. There are also some space pirates who specialize in planet exploration. They will look for planets that have not been developed and have rich resources to exploit. And such space pirates are usually the strongest. The Federation will actually do some transactions with Heaven Planet, mainly against such space pirates. We will exchange some resources with them. We even have an administrative planet that we bought from these space pirates.”

“That works too?” Qian Lei was surprised.

Deng Bo smiled. “There are no eternal enemies in this world, only eternal benefits. The reason why the Federation did not go all out to attack Heaven Planet is also related to this. But they also have to control the strength of the pirates on Heaven Planet.”

“Let’s stay here first, then I’ll contact my own people and prepare for the rescue operation.”

There were also means of transportation in the city, and other than the rare metals being hard currency, there were also coins made of Heavy Silver that could be used. They were divided into different values according to their weight and were called Heaven coins.

Deng Bo brought everyone going through a few public buses and seemed to have entered the city center. They found a relatively large hotel and stayed there.

Everything in the hotel was very simple and was basically made of hard metal. The service staff inside even had implants, regardless of gender. It was clear how insecure the people living here were.

Deng Bo opened a few rooms and brought everyone to stay.

“I’ll go back and contact my own people. You guys rest and reorganize in the hotel first. You can also go out for a walk, take a look, and experience the scenery of Black Horn City. But take note, try not to clash with others. If there’s conflict, try not to kill during the day. If it’s at night, it’s best not to go out. Heaven Planet at night is the most dangerous. I’ll be back in about a day.”

Deng Bo gave Lan Xuanyu and his team a few reminders before he left the hotel quietly.

The hotel room wasn’t big and there wasn’t much space between the two other than the bed. But Lan Xuanyu still called his teammates to gather in a room and he felt that something wasn’t right.
