Global Plunder: Start with Heart of Darkness

Thursday, February 1, Year 1.

Early in the morning, Gu Yu got up and sat in the energy hall with a calm expression, enjoying the tranquility of this moment.

The whole city celebrated yesterday, and everyone was surprised and happy at the sudden increase in strength.

The happiest people are Mei Ninghua and Liu Qing. They know best that the civilization of the Dark Sky Clan has completely surpassed the civilization of other human races on earth.

For the first time, they were full of confidence in the future and revenge.

But while he was happy, Gu Yu also asked the Gopher Scouts, Shadow Thorns and Night Demon Troops to monitor the surrounding area today and report any abnormality to him immediately.

Today is the beginning of a new month, and he feels vaguely uneasy, always feeling that something will happen.

Mei Ninghua also felt the same about Gu Yu's worries, so they started paying attention to the chat channel early in the morning.

"Wanshenshan is recruiting masters above the bronze level to join. Those who meet the requirements are welcome to contact me!"

"Demon Blade has established a new seventh legion and is recruiting a deputy legion commander. The requirement is bronze level seven or above. Those with special talents and abilities can relax the conditions."

"Attention, heroic rangers from all walks of life, we at Wings of Light provide the best mission platform. There are a large number of missions waiting for you to take on. If you want to make money, this is your best choice!"

"Purchase various equipment, resources, and monster corpses at high prices. This advertisement is valid for a long time. Anyone who is interested can contact me at any time."

…

In chat channels, the most common advertisements are advertisements of this kind. These people have been swiping the screen for a long time and occupying the screen of regional channels.

They are still competing with each other. If you post one, I will post another immediately, competing for the right to possess the latest message.

What's more, after editing a long paragraph of text, one message fills the entire screen, causing other people to speak one after another, and the content that dominates the screen disappears.

Gu Yu looked at it for a long time, but didn't find any useful information. There were a lot of scoldings and fights, but it didn't arouse his interest.

He was a little impatient and was about to close the chat channel when a message suddenly appeared.

"He Tao, your people dare to come to grab the mine near our base of Flame Rose. Do you want to start a war with us?"

The reason why Gu Yu became interested in this piece of information was not the matter of robbing the mines, but also the fact that He Tao had improved in the information.

Because he wiped out He Liang's team, he learned a lot about the Hand of Judgment. He also knew that the Hand of Judgment's greatest reputation was the first group led by He Tao.

The Hand of Judgment has the most elite masters, apart from President Shinra's Guards Regiment, the first regiment has the most.

Mei Ninghua also deduced that Kong Liang's team was probably from He Tao's first group, so Gu Yu had some impression of the name He Tao.

"Haha, Yang Tianqing shouldn't be so angry. My people discovered that gas spring. Why should I give it to you?" He Tao quickly replied.

"You're talking nonsense. It was obviously our sisters from Red Rose who discovered it first. Is it still reasonable for you to be the first group to seize the minerals?"

"Don't talk nonsense. If we occupy it, it's ours. If you have the ability, come and rob it."

"Okay, just wait, we, Blazing Rose, will definitely pursue this matter to the end!"

"Hmph, Hand of Judgment wants to bully women, first ask us, Wings of Light, if we agree!"

"If you want to start a war, feel free!"

…

Gu Yu watched with gusto, the ruling hand was as domineering as ever, and it must be hard to swallow that Flame Rose was bullied to the doorstep.

Gu Yu knew something about the Flame Rose. It was a mercenary group composed mostly of women. Yang Tianqing was the leader of the Red Rose Corps.

On the surface, the overall strength of the Flame Rose is the weakest among the three major mercenary groups, but there are many peripheral supporters, and its potential strength cannot be underestimated.

Seeing that this mine robbery incident is getting more and more intense, even the Wings of Light have joined in, with the intention of acting as a messenger to protect the flowers.

If the Flame Rose really wants to go to war with the Hand of Judgment, I'm afraid Shinra will have a headache for a while.

Gu Yu had already regarded the Hand of Judgment as his imaginary enemy. Seeing the intensification of the conflicts between the three major mercenary groups, he was still in a good mood.

However, he also knew that the quarrels between the three families occurred every three days, which was not uncommon. There would definitely be a lot of friction in a small area, but a large-scale war would not happen.

At this moment, Mei Ninghua and Ying Yi walked in.

"Brother Gu, do you know about gas springs?" Mei Ninghua asked directly.

"I've never heard of it before, and I just found out about it. What kind of mineral is this?"

Gu Yu thought that Mei Ninghua understood the purpose of the gas spring, but unexpectedly she shook her head.

"I don't know what kind of mineral this is, but Ying Yi discovered this morning that a gas spring also appeared near our territory." Mei Ninghua said solemnly.

"What? You mean, the gas spring suddenly appeared today?" Gu Yu immediately realized the special nature of this new mineral.

"Yes, it's near our Dark Sky City, no more than ten kilometers away." Mei Ninghua nodded.

Gu Yu suddenly took a breath and forced himself to calm down.

Just now, he was still wondering why a gas spring was located near the Flame Rose station, but it was only discovered today, causing a dispute.

Now he understands that this TM is a new mine that only appeared this month, and it is something that did not exist before.

He had a very bad feeling in his heart.

If this gas spring mine doesn't appear sooner or later, but it happens to appear on the first day of the new moon, I'm afraid some uncontrollable big event will happen.

"Ying Yi, send more people, expand the scope of investigation, and continue the search. Let's go and have a look at the gas spring!"

After Gu Yu finished speaking, he rushed to the place where the gas spring appeared.

He was not only accompanied by Mei Ninghua, but also Ajit and Liu Qing, and even Swann was invited by him.

Soon, Gu Yu saw the gas spring with his own eyes.

It was a special energy gas buried underground, which raised a huge hole on the ground, from which emerald-green smoke continued to emerge.

On the nearby ground, there were still more than a dozen goblin corpses lying in random directions. They must have been attracted by the gas spring and killed by Shadow Thorn.

Gu Yu noticed that the facial expressions of these goblins were ferocious and fierce, but there was no trace of fear.

This aroused a suspicion in his heart. You must know that the Goblin clan has always been timid and cowardly. They rarely die bravely in battle. Normally, they either run away or surrender.

However, he put aside his doubts for the moment and walked over to check the gas spring.

"This gas mine is rich in energy and should be used in many fields." After sensing this, Mei Ninghua revealed a smile on his face.

"I can use this gas to forge equipment, and perhaps create better weapons." Liu Qing also agreed.

"Everyone, be careful. I have a vague feeling that there is some kind of evil power in this gas spring." Ajit looked solemn.

Gu Yu had always been inexplicably wary of gas springs, but now that he heard what Lao Ai said, he felt that this was even more fishy.

So, he turned his attention to Swann, who had always remained silent.
