Chapter 249

"Wow, so many people!"

Bepo's small eyes darted around, making him a little dizzy; he had never seen so many humans in his life.

"This is nothing!"

Out of curiosity about the group, Mayor John, who had returned with them, laughed heartily, "Millions of people across the country are in Night City right now!"

"Several million?"

Luo and his companions were instantly dumbfounded, and even the seasoned veteran Wolf couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.

Is it really that exaggerated?

Did they bring the whole country into this?

What kind of monster is that Night King?!

Moreover, what's truly astonishing isn't the quantity, but rather—

"Beep beep!"

Amidst the piercing blare of the horn, the group quickly made way.

A car adorned with various jewels drove past them.

It must be a carriage, right? Although Luo had never seen a carriage that wasn't pulled by horses.

The man driving the luxury car inside the car window gave them the middle finger, saying, "Get out of the way, you poor bastards."

"Poor, a penniless wretch??"

Shakky gritted her teeth, "Are all the locals this rude?"

"Hahaha, actually, he's already considered quite poor."

Mayor John laughed heartily, "The truly wealthy don't drive."

"I think I understand what you mean."

Luo tilted his head back, a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth.

In the sky, a giant black dragon flapped its wings, stirring up a gale, and swam slowly across the sky with an air of grandeur.

A small house is clearly visible on the back of the dragon, and someone is standing by the railing, leisurely looking down at the city below.

Besides the dragon, there is also the phoenix, whose entire body is covered in fire and whose flapping wings can make the entire sky Phoenix.

There are also Titans, whose bodies Coating with lightning, and whose mere steps across the street can shake the entire neighborhood.

Besides these mounts, there were also many strange and unusual people around.

Some wore cool futuristic armor, some were as tall as giants, and some were covered in dragon scales with wings spread behind them.

"That's so cool!"

Penguin's eyes lit up. "How can we get these things?"

"Dream Coin."

John laughed and said, "As long as you have enough Dream Coin, you can buy everything through the Dream Terminal you have."

So, you still have to spend money, right?

Luo's lips twitched slightly. "I thought everyone was truly equal in this world."

After all, all the services we tried before were free.

"Apart from Lord Night King and his officers, everyone is equal, of course."

John said, "But some people certainly want more equality!"

Luo chuckled.

"Although some people do buy Dream Coin in the real world, the true source of Dream Coin is public recognition!"

John said, "Books, music, movies, or even fighting in the arena—only by truly pleasing the masses can you earn Dream Coin as a reward!"

"And those who bring new joy to everyone certainly deserve more, don't they?"

Luo Wei was slightly taken aback.

In other words, aside from those who also hold power and influence in the real world, are all those truly at the top in this City of Dreams creators?

This design is quite good.

"But you're not from the Dunas Kingdom? I've gotten used to the City of Dreams inhabited only by people from our own country."

John sighed, "That's true. Lord Night King has already occupied this sea area, and it's indeed time to let more people enter this great City of Dreams!"

Luo frowned.

Dunas Kingdom

When the man introduced himself, Luo already felt that the country sounded somewhat familiar.

Furthermore, what does it mean to have occupied this sea area?

"Brother,"

John asked with some curiosity, "Which country are you from?"

"A small island in the North Blue."

Luo said it casually.

"North Blue?"

John was stunned. "Why is it the North Blue? Isn't it the New World? Wait! Bro!"

He suddenly realized something, "Could it be that these are the only people who came in with you?"

They don't seem to have come in as a group...

"Um."

Luo nodded. "The Night King wants us to come in and get used to this world first."

"Eh!!!"

John was instantly dumbfounded.

The Night King spoke with him personally?

John hurriedly bowed to Law, "So you're one of Night King's subordinates! I'm so sorry, I was so rude!"

Only cadres deserve such treatment.

Cadre?

Were they cadres who were forced to join?

Luo twitched the corner of his mouth.

"However, judging from your apparent complete ignorance of the City of Dreams,"

John asked with some curiosity, "Haven't you met any other cadres yet?"

Luo shook his head.

The information that appeared in his mind included how to contact other officers, and that he could go to that place called Valhalla at any time.

However, Luo did not do that.

Luo harbored some reservations about contacting that guy's subordinates.

"I see?"

John, as if struck by a sudden thought, immediately smiled and said, "It just so happens that Lord Anthony and Lord Salt are currently dueling in the arena. You can go there and meet them!"

Luo's eyes widened, and his face turned pale. "Who are you talking about?"

In the bustling arena at the center of City of Dreams.

On the vast arena, two figures were engaged in fierce combat.

One was an enormous, ferocious bear, and the other was a short, stout man as fast as Inazuma.

The two clashed repeatedly, and each exchange elicited screams of desperation from the audience.

Amidst the excited audience, Luo's face was ashen.

"No way?"

Beside him, Wolf's voice also trembled, "Swift Sword Salt, the Nation-Stealing General Anthony..."

Both of these names were featured extensively in the newspapers not long ago!

Luo turned his head stiffly to look at Mayor John beside him, who was equally excited. "Aren't they officers under Bandi World?"

Now I finally understand everything.

Why does the name "Dunas Kingdom" sound familiar?

Because the country's name had appeared in newspapers, the World Economy News Paper speculated that it was the stronghold of World's gang.

Now I understand what Mayor John meant by occupying an entire area of the sea.

World and his gang had indeed just occupied a large area of the sea.

"Lord World?"

John smiled. "While we're not entirely sure why Lord World is standing on the stage, there's no doubt that the Night King is the true supreme being!"

"..."

Luo's expression stiffened.

Even World, the man known as the Pirate Emperor, was merely a subordinate of the Night King?

What kind of monster is that guy who claims to be a nobody?

It has to be said that comparing him to Doflamingo was giving Doflamingo too much credit.

Shouldn't I be proud to have been chosen by a monster of that caliber?

"Lord Luo, please, from now on, you must continue to fight valiantly for Lord Night King!"

John said very seriously, "We will also do everything we can to support you!"

Luo opened his mouth.

That guy is really highly respected.

That makes sense, considering everything he has provided to the people of the Dunas Kingdom in this world, it is only natural that the people worship him.

Moreover, there are probably many more people who admire him like this.

That guy's sphere of influence has already expanded to such a large area; there will definitely be more people brought to this world and immersed in it.

So, what was his motive?

It's hard to imagine someone who so readily resorts to coercion and bribery being a truly noble saint.

He definitely has his reasons!
