I'm A Quadrillionaire

Chapter 340

Chaos Land used to be a very powerful country. Although it was not comparable to the two empires of

Somerland and Falconia, it was still much stronger than some other countries.

Since this country was extremely rich in natural resources, Falconia had been eying at it for a long

time, but due to the pressure exerted by Somerland, Falconia did not dare to do anything too brazen,

Hence, they could only start from within. After years of infiltration by Falconia, the country was now

divided from within. Just as Falconia intended to seize the country‘s resources, it was stopped by

Somerland.

Naturally, Somerland would not allow Falconia to continue to strengthen itself. The two empires would

restrict each other, which then gave the mercenary groups huge opportunities t o expand

After all the shenanigans, the place had developed to become a heaven for mercenaries while even the

surrounding small countries would send people disguised as mercenaries to snatch resources for

themselves. With that, Chaos Land became the most chaotic place in the world. It was similar to tribal

hegemony. Large mercenary groups were equivalent to large tribes and would occupy places with rich

resources, while small mercenary groups were equivalent to small tribes who would occupy places with

relatively fewer resources. Once the resources in the occupied territory were depleted, they would

either look for new land with untapped resources or conquer resource-rich land that were previously

occupied by other mercenary groups. When this happened, it would trigger a battle. Therefore, the

natives here hated the Falconians very much, but they also slowly accepted reality. They would group

to combine their strength and then move around under the name of the mercenary groups.

The largest mercenary group in the global underground world, the Holy Light Mercenaries, was

composed of masters left behind from the former country. They were still occupying the most

prosperous place in the Chaos Land. The reason why they were named Holy Light was that they

wanted to purify all darkness in the world. On the other hand, there was one kind of entity in the Chaos

Land that was protected by all mercenary groups, that was, the professional resource collection team.

The mercenary group occupied the land with resources. Naturally, they needed to collect resources

and exchange them for money. However, as many did not know how to collect these resources, a new

professional group was born, which was now known as the resource collection team.

They would charge a certain commission to help the mercenary group gather resources. Even i f the

mercenary group they were helping got destroyed, they would not be harmed. They would just change

to another employer and continue doing their job. This was because they would not work unless their

safety could be guaranteed. If they refused to come, it would be useless even if the mercenary group

occupied the areas in question,

Therefore, within Chaos Land, whenever there was a war between mercenary groups to snatch

resources, the resource collection workers would never be implicated. Even if they were accidentally

injured, they would be compensated with a lot of money.

The resources collected by the major mercenary groups also had to be sold, which then formed a

trading area in the Chaos Land that was called the Peace Area.

This place was also protected by all mercenaries as the resources that everyone collected would be

shipped here to exchange for money and traded for daily necessities and food,

The Peace Area also gathered merchants from various countries around the world. After they had

shipped the resources out and sold them, they would bring in all kinds of food.

Many resource collection workers would also rest in the Peace Area when they did not have tasks at

hand. At the same time, they would wait for their next task to arrive.

The Peace Area was actually a bustling city that was located in Chaos Land. It was safe, lively, and

prosperous. Of course, safety was also relative. There was no absolute safety in Chaos Land. The

temporary gathering place of Red Flame that Paul chose was very close to the Peace Area, which

made it convenient for him to issue recruitment tasks and buy supplies.

As for why they did not set up a temporary gathering place for Red Flame Mercenaries in the Peace

Area itself, it was not because they did not want to spend money, but it was because they also had to

buy a large number of advanced weapons. Unfortunately, weapons were not allowed in the Peace

Area.

Thus, they could only find a temporary lodging outside the Peace Area.

At this moment, David was walking on the bustling streets of the Peace Area. The liveliness here made

him feel like he was back in Somerland.

However, the difference was that there were no high-rise buildings here. The tallest building was a

small building consisting of several floors. There were many people selling things on the street,

including food, clothing, and daily necessities. There were all kinds of items being sold here, but the

prices were often super expensive, often costing at least five times the price back in Somerland.

Occasionally, some items were even ten times the price back home.

After all, doing business here would carry a certain amount of risk. Who would come here if there were

no huge benefits tempting them? Moreover, the people here, whether they were mercenaries or

workers from the resources collection team, would be able to earn a lot of money. They would then

spend money recklessly. This was especially true for the mercenaries. They would live precariously

every day and they did not adopt the concept of saving money. Thus, they would be happiest spending

money in the Peace Area pursuing enjoyment.
