Chapter 13 Steel City Part 1

The first ray of dawn shattered the dark night and shone on the vast snowy field.

Lines of passengers were walking forward on foot, and there were sparse carriages scattered in the center of them. Some passengers occasionally looked at the carriages with envy, and then immediately afterward, they would look at the director of the Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Chris Sharp, with a bit of resentment. There was no doubt that when the caravan arrived in Steel City, the complaints like snowflakes would overwhelm this member of the board of the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce.

In the luxuriously decorated carriage, Sulman leaned against the wall of the carriage, seeming to fall asleep, but in fact faking it.

Before arriving in Steel City, Sulman didn't dare to relax at all. In his previous life, when he was still a player, he used to escort some caravans. As a result, it was often the night before arriving in a civilized city-state when the caravan encountered the powerful Desolate Bandits, or simply an internal rebellion within the Chamber of Commerce, and then everything would be destroyed overnight. This experience kept Sulman very vigilant.

Different from his experience, Ibis, who was from a wealthy family, was already exhausted after a tense night. She curled up her body in the corner and fell asleep.

"This girl has good aptitude..."

Suddenly, a voice came from Sulman's arms. Looking down, the Codex of the Black Abyss named 'Sinflame' quietly opened its eyes, looking at the beautiful girl in the corner and casually said.

"Do you think she is very suitable to be a 'contract candidate?" Sulman raised his eyebrows, finding it very amusing. Probably, Sinflame would never know that this girl was supposed to be its real holder.

"No, you are more suitable than her."

Sinflame said faintly, and then stopped talking to him. According to Sinflame, even if it did not grant power, it would still consume some energy even if it only communicated with the contractor through the seal.

Of course, this consumption was much smaller than holding Divine Ritual. The difference between the two was probably a bottle of drinking water and the river that ran through the city. But it seemed that Lord Sinflame had spent quite a lot of energy holding the ritual, that was why he had to calculate every bit of energy it spent carefully...

Just when Sulman was about to mock it, a voice suddenly came into his ears——

[Notice: You have triggered the plot event The pursuit of the wanted (Lv15)]

Seeing the name of the event on the panel, Sulman's pupils shrank, especially the difficulty behind it, which made him immediately alert.

Lv15!

This was definitely the difficulty of the 'transcendental level'. Not only that, but it was also a level that needed to be triggered by a transcender of the senior level, or even a team of transcenders. After all, no matter how many secondary classes an ordinary person had, the plot events they could trigger would be limited to Lv10.

The plot event to exterminate the entire White Wolf Group that had two transcenders was only judged to be Lv10 difficulty...

"Is it the follow-up mission of the White Wolf Group?" Sulman faintly guessed the possibility based on the name of the incident.

As an experienced wasteland pioneer, the ability to infer the plot progress was his strength. First of all, the name of the plot event contained a certain amount of information. It was not difficult to guess from it that it should be the follow-up plot of 'White Wolf Group'.

The question was that the entire White Wolf Group had been destroyed by him. Who would seek revenge on Sulman?

Unless, there was another force behind the White Wolf Group!

So the White Wolf Group was just a chess piece. But who was the one that was controlling them?...

Sulman's eyes condensed, and he almost blurted out--

"Pilgrims!"

In fact, there were many possibilities, and there were many forces that met the requirements. Within the scope of Steel City alone, whether there were official forces on the surface or hidden organizations hidden in the dark, the number of possible forces that controlled the White wolf was like stars.

Under normal circumstances, even Sulman couldn’t guess the identity of the mastermind, but the problem was that there was a condition that greatly narrowed down the scope.

Sulman raised his head and looked at the gap outside the car. The wisps of morning light penetrated into the carriages. Obviously, it was still early in the morning, and it was still a long time before the real daytime.

"Only a few hours..."

Sulman confirmed in his heart. The time he destroyed the White Wolf Group just happened in the middle of the night.

After only a few short hours, there was a force that was able to discover the bodies of the White Wolf Group on the snowy field... With this alone, most of the forces in Steel City could be ruled out, leaving only two possibilities.

First, it could be the other Desolate Bandits on the snowy field, but the most famous Desolate Bandits had their own range of activities. They would not rush into other people's territory, otherwise, the two sides would fight to the end.

All Desolate Bandits were seeking money, and their primary targets were the passing caravans and travelers. Therefore, it was unlikely that it would be Desolate Bandits.

Then it only left with the second possibility... Pilgrims!

As a force that hunted Desolate Bandits on the snowy field, Pilgrims had the ability to wander in the snowy field and had the motivation to discover the corpses. The most important thing was that they could also form some secret agreement with those bandits.
