Evil Dragon Crazy Soldier King

The proprietress gestured for Mi Duo to go upstairs, raising her voice loudly.

"Bruno, we have guests, where the hell have you wandered off to, old man?"

A white man in his fifties rushed out of the bathroom in a hurry.

Like the proprietress, he was obese, with a wooden face, a large hooked red nose, and dull gray eyes, looking every bit like a useless fool.

The proprietress kicked the white man's rear, tossing him the backpack she held.

"Quickly take this girl to the room, be swift, and watch your skin!"

The white man Bruno took Mi Duo's backpack, courteously led her into the room.

The proprietress watched Bruno lead Mi Duo upstairs, her rotund eyes squeezed into slits.

Her expression was like that of a mother fox capturing prey.

The proprietress pulled out a battered phone, dialed a number, and her voice gradually lowered.

Mi Duo and Bruno entered the room.

She looked around; though simple, it was clean enough, and she nodded in satisfaction.

Bruno set down Mi Duo's backpack, nodded politely at her.

"Miss, according to the rules, we require payment upfront here."

Mi Duo nodded, her English was crisp and pleasant.

"Well, how much for one night?"

Bruno held up one finger, and Mi Duo was taken aback.

"One US dollar? That's very cheap, I'll pay you now."

Mi Duo had brought enough money for this trip; in the Land of Chaos, money could often accomplish many things.

Bruno shook his head, his voice extremely stiff.

"No, Miss, it's ten thousand US dollars."

Mi Duo was startled, looking at Bruno in shock: "So expensive, I won't stay."

Ten thousand US dollars, equivalent to sixty-seven thousand Huaxia currency, such an expensive room rate for one night was truly unheard of.

Mi Duo finished speaking, took her backpack from the table, and walked towards the door.

Bruno grinned, his stiff voice filled with helplessness.

"Miss, running a hotel in the Land of Chaos has very high costs, we're risking our lives."

"Moreover, I can guarantee that there's no other hotel that can accommodate you if you go out now."

At this point, he shook his head.

"A beautiful woman like you, spending the night in the dark district, you might not see tomorrow's sun and endure humiliations beyond your worst nightmares."

Bruno spoke while shaking his head and turned to leave the room.

Mi Duo was frightened, her heart pounded wildly from his words.

Although she possessed the mighty Armed Storm, her innocence made her unaware of such horrible things.

Mi Duo gathered her courage, took a stack of US dollars from her backpack, counted them, and handed them to Bruno.

"Alright, I'll stay here tonight."

Bruno turned around, his wooden face full of smiles.

"That's better, our hotel is protected by Bald Harden, you're completely safe here."

Mi Duo nodded hesitantly before asking.

"I'm hungry, where can I find food?"

Bruno was about to speak when the door opened, and the obese proprietress pushed it open with a full-faced smile.

"Girl, if you turn the corner outside the hotel, there's a tea restaurant with good food, I'll have Bruno take you there."

Mi Duo gratefully nodded, as the proprietress winked at the old man.

"Go on, ensure our guest's safety, it's getting dark, return quickly after eating."

Bruno nodded, showing no expression on his wooden face.

Bruno led Mi Duo out of the hotel, east around a street corner, indeed spotting a tea restaurant in a two-story, cement brick building.

This was the tea restaurant's busiest time, with almost every seat occupied.

Many people stood in the aisle, dining with a box lunch.

Bruno took Mi Duo into the tea restaurant, bustling around, finally securing a seat for her.

He personally brought Mi Duo a glass of lemonade and a serving of bacon rice.

Mi Duo was very grateful, having roamed around Yihabadun all day, she was both hungry and thirsty. She took a sip of lemonade and began eating.

Bruno did not leave, staring at Mi Duo without blinking.

Mi Duo found his gaze extremely odd, involuntarily looking up at him.

At that moment, she suddenly felt dizzy, her vision darkening.

Bruno stared at her deeply, a sinister smile gradually emerging on his wooden face, his yellow-stained teeth flickering before her eyes.

Mi Duo was aghast, looking incredulously at her half-consumed lemonade, her vision swimming.

An overwhelming sense of fatigue surged like a tide.

Mi Duo used all her strength to press the button on her left wrist's Armed Storm.

However, Bruno grabbed her left hand quickly, chuckled coldly, his eyes filled with wickedness.

Mi Duo's heart sank, struggling desperately.

But the knockout drugs took effect, and she fell onto the table, motionless after a brief twitch.

Bruno released Mi Duo's hand, took out a brick-like old cellphone, dialed a number, spoke briefly, then hung up.

Soon, a burly, strong black man entered the tea restaurant with several others.

His eyes lit up seeing Mi Duo.

The black man appreciatively patted Bruno's shoulder.

"This time's catch is good, selling this girl to Red Mill will fetch quite a price."

Bruno's wooden face wore a humble smile, yet he hid Mi Duo's backpack behind him, motionless.

The black man waved his hand, and two guys moved to lift Mi Duo's body.

One of them hoisted Mi Duo over his shoulder, heading towards the tea restaurant's exit.

Just as they left, a yellow-skinned, black-eyed Huaxia person spotted Mi Duo's face and froze.

This Huaxia person was dressed in yellow workwear, wearing a safety helmet, tall and strong.

He strode up, blocking the black man's path.

"Yuri, what are you doing?"

Yuri impatiently waved his hand.

"How dare you meddle in Master Harden's affairs! This person isn't Huaxia, she's a Sang Country woman."

The Huaxia worker smirked coldly, pointing at the corner of Mi Duo's clothes.

"If I can't recognize my own country's script, how could I call myself Huaxia?"

"You can capture others, but release this woman for me."

Yuri glanced down and saw beneath Mi Duo's black robe clothing adorned with Huaxia script for decoration.

Yuri raised his head, laughing coldly.

"Li Jianguo, I know you Huaxia support workers have great unity."

"But understand this, this isn't Huaxia, it's Alang. Stop being stubborn."

He spoke, brandishing a switchblade, flicking it for the blade to gleam, edging towards Li Jianguo.

Li Jianguo stood upright, confronting Yuri with a contemptuous look.

"Try stabbing me, see if our Huaxia peacekeeper forces will obliterate you?"

Yuri laughed heartily: "Have you gone mad?"

"Your peacekeeper forces have long left. You have no support now, so stop being arrogant or I'll kill you."
