35: The tyrant protects his own!

At the intersection ahead, a mountain of flesh blocked the way.

It was a fat woman less than 1.5 meters tall, but with a width of 1.6 meters.

Her skin had an eerie greenish tint, clearly mixed with Goblin blood.

Her fleshy face was caked in thick white powder, which flaked off whenever she smiled, looking just like a pig demon that had been whitewashed.

She was draped in gold chains, and her ten fingers, as thick as carrots, were covered in gemstone rings.

The person who arrived was a brothel madam.

And the kind belonging to the local forces of Crimson Port.

Behind the madam followed a dozen or so burly thugs holding Spiked Clubs and covered in tattoos.

She didn't care about Chen Du at all.

Her bean-sized eyes were filled with greed!

They stared fixedly at Ye Qiu's slender waist and Xia Mo's long legs, finally settling on An Nuonuo's youthful, first-love face.

Slurp.

The madam actually sucked up a mouthful of saliva; it was extremely disgusting.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! Top-quality! All of them are top-quality!"

The madam rubbed her hands together, her eyes gleaming, "To think such tender goods haven't spoiled after drifting on the sea for so long?"

"If these were sent to the Inner City, wouldn't those big shots go crazy?"

She swaggered over and pointed at Chen Du's nose, saying, "Hey, you pretty boy! I want this whole batch of goods!"

"Two units of life essence each! For that little one, I'll pay three! Take the money and get lost, don't hold up my business!"

Upon hearing this, the veins on Tang Ran's forehead bulged, and her fists cracked as she clenched them.

"Damn it, you fat hag, who are you calling goods?"

The throwing knife in Xia Mo's hand had already slid to her fingertips, a cold glint faintly visible.

However, a large hand stopped them.

An inscrutable smile hung on Chen Du's face.

Not only was he not angry, but he even pushed An Nuonuo, who was hiding behind him, forward.

"Oh? Madam, you certainly have a good eye."

Chen Du asked with a smile, "Two units? Isn't that price a bit too low? I think this little sister is worth at least five, right?"

An Nuonuo's eyes widened, looking at Chen Du in disbelief, tears welling up.

"C-Captain?! You're going to sell me?!"

Ye Qiu was also anxious: "Chen Du! Have you lost your mind?!"

The madam was stunned, then burst into wild laughter, the fat on her face quivering.

"Hahaha! You're a sensible kid! Five units? Done! As long as the goods are good, I can afford it!"

She assumed Chen Du was the kind of coward who would sell women to save his own life.

She had seen plenty of such trash at the port.

Getting carried away, the madam reached out her greasy hand to touch An Nuonuo's little face: "Come, let Grandma inspect the goods..."

It was a hand that had just grabbed rotten meat, greasy and filthy.

The gaps under her fingernails were full of black grime.

An Nuonuo closed her eyes in fear, trembling all over.

The distance grew closer and closer, until only one centimeter remained.

The smile on Chen Du's lips suddenly vanished.

"Xia Lai!"

"Got it! I couldn't wait any longer!"

Xia Lai, who had been waiting in the back, lunged forward!

Her ready-to-fire mechanical heavy arm raised with a boom!

Hiss—!!

Scalding, high-temperature steam blasted violently from the copper pipes, hitting the madam directly in the face!

"Ahhh! My eyes!!"

Before the madam could finish screaming, Xia Lai's mechanical iron pliers had already clamped down hard on her right hand.

"Like touching? I'll let you touch to your heart's content!!"

The hydraulic rods on the mechanical arm contracted crazily!

【thug no. 1 · Crush Mode】!

Crack!!!

A bone-cracking sound, crisp enough to make one's scalp tingle, rang out.

The madam's hand, covered in gold rings, was crushed into a pulp of flesh!

Gold embedded into bone, bone pierced through flesh!

Red and yellow mixed together; the scene was extremely satisfying!

"Aooooo—!!"

The madam screamed like a slaughtered pig, the pain forcing her to her knees.

Snot and tears washed streaks into the white powder on her face, making her look like a female ghost who had just crawled out of a well.

The dozen or so surrounding thugs were stunned.

They hadn't expected these outsiders to actually dare to attack! And with one move, they had crippled the madam's hand!

These guys were tough nuts to crack!!!

"Shut up!"

Chen Du stepped forward and stomped on the madam's fat face.

His military boot pressed down hard, turning her screams into muffled groans.

Chen Du bent down and forcibly ripped a black coin engraved with a skull from the madam's wrist, tossing it in his hand.

"Two units of life essence?"

Chen Du sneered, his gaze looking down like one would at ants, "I originally wanted to do business with you, but you actually wanted to touch my crew?"

"Things I take a liking to, I usually have a habit of... zero-dollar shopping."

"Wow! The Captain is so cool!"

An Nuonuo held back the tears that were still welling up, breaking into a smile through her tears.

She cupped her hands over her heart, her eyes full of admiring little stars.

"I knew it! I knew the Captain couldn't bear to sell Nuonuo!"

"You scared me to death just now... wuu wuu wuu..."

"This is the Captain we follow!" Lin Keke also waved her pink fists excitedly, her face full of chuunibyou fanaticism.

"Is this the legendary aura of a powerhouse? This domineering air of opposing the world... I love it, I love it!"

Watching this scene, Ye Qiu finally relaxed her tense body.

She looked at Chen Du's back, a flash of guilt crossing her face.

"Hmph... I suppose you are a man."

She turned her head away, tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear, and muttered softly: "Just now... I spoke too quickly and wronged you."

"It seems you aren't cold-blooded and heartless after all; at least in terms of protecting your own, I'll barely give you a passing grade."

"In the future... stop making these misleading jokes; people with weak hearts could easily get scared to death!"

Receiving support from the beauties, the smile on Chen Du's lips deepened.

He slowly turned his head, his gaze sweeping over the group of thugs who were holding Spiked Clubs but dared not step forward.

No need for idle talk.

Since they had already started, they might as well completely crush their will to resist.

Chen Du narrowed his eyes slightly, and a dark golden light surged deep within his pupils!

【Tyrants Gaze】!

A pressure originating from the depths of the soul enveloped the entire scene.

Several cowardly Goblin thugs had their legs go weak on the spot, and their weapons clattered to the ground.

"Now, we are going to take a stroll in the Inner City."

Chen Du fiddled with the skull coin, still warm with blood, and smiled as he asked the mountain of flesh beneath his feet:

"This coin should be the admission ticket, right?"

The madam rolled her eyes in pain and nodded desperately: "Yes... yes... spare me... please spare me, my lord..."

"See, isn't communication smooth now?" Chen Du nodded with satisfaction.

Just as everyone was preparing to leave.

Suddenly.

A slight commotion came from the crowd behind them.

"Excuse me..."

A somewhat stiff and poorly spoken English, filled with hypocritical politeness, rang out, making one's ears uncomfortable.

Chen Du turned back.

He saw seven or eight men standing in the shadows of the alley, wearing samurai outfits and carrying long swords at their waists.

They wore wooden clogs and white headbands, and a disgusting aura rushed towards them.

The leader wore a toothbrush mustache and had a sinister look in his eyes.

His gaze wandered back and forth over Xia Mo and Ye Qiu, revealing a perverted excitement like seeing prey.

The man bowed slightly, wearing a typical Japanese fake smile, extremely hypocritical:

"Beautiful ladies... how much?"

"We want all of you."

The atmosphere dropped to freezing point.

Hearing such arrogant remarks that not only treated people as goods but also delusionally hoped to swallow them in one bite,

the girls' expressions immediately escalated from disgust to looks of staring at trash.

A hint of killing intent flashed in Xia Mo's beautiful eyes.

"Baka! Why aren't you answering Tanaka-kun's question?"

"We came with the utmost sincerity! You bunch of Zhina... Ugh!"

Before the mustache could finish cursing, Tang Ran's fists were already cracking loudly.

"You want to die, huh? This lady will send you back to your hometown to see the cherry blossoms! The free kind!"

Lin Keke was so angry that her ahoge stood straight up, hands on her hips.

Not only was she not afraid in the slightest, but she even activated her chuunibyou taunt mode.

"Huh? Where did this NPC come from, adding drama here?"

"Just because you low-level mobs came out of the newbie village, you think you can touch our noble beautiful girl idol group?"

Lin Keke gave a middle finger with a look of contempt, "Go back to the furnace and be remade, you dead otaku!"
