Ace of the Dragon Division

Chapter 686 - No other countries allowed to interfere in the Land of Mercenaries



The M Nation soldiers decided in the end to leave that area and intended to go deeper.

However, they were stopped by Diesel, Vala, and Li Wei half way there.

The three of them drove a jeep and parked it across the road from where the M Nation soldiers were.

Li Wei stayed in the car while Vala and Diesel stood in front of the car. The two lit up their cigarettes and stood in the middle of the road on the highway.

The head general of the M Nation soldiers looked at them and asked, “What is the meaning of this?”

Diesel looked at him and said, “Is it your first day around here?”

The general had heard that there were many rules in the Land of Mercenaries and was afraid of accidentally exposing the fact that they were actually not mercenaries, so he tried to disguise themselves as he answered, “We have indeed been here for a short time, is there anything we should know of?”

Diesel: “You broke three rules. First, you passed the number of people an independent mercenary corps can have. Second, you didn’t pay tax to the landlords in this district. Third, you’re not allowed to go deeper into the region.”

The general saw how there were only three men and didn’t take them seriously. “Who are you people?”

Diesel: “We are part of the Continental Mercenaries! Now that the Continental Mercenaries occupy three-fifths of the territory, strictly speaking, the Land of Mercenaries should follow the rules of the Continental Mercenaries since that’s the majority.”

The General looked at his soldiers behind him who seemed somewhat angry and looked back at Diesel and his allies. “First, we will not disband to reduce our numbers. Also, since we are all here, then we shall rely on our abilities to survive. There are already many rules in the outside world; if we are still expected to abide by the rules in this land, well that’s something we will not cooperate with.”

Vala snickered. “It’s okay for you to unite together for self-defence. However, there is an unwritten rule in the Land of Mercenaries: there can only be ten to twenty people for any mercenary corp that has not yet been registered. Those that have been registered can have no more than a hundred armed men. I’m afraid that there’s about two hundred of you here, am I correct? Tell me, which mercenary corps are you from?”

“The Eagle Mercenaries.” The general randomly made one up.

Diesel shook his head. “I don’t care which mercenary corps you are from, because since the Continentals have taken control of three-fifths of the territory, there shall not be a second mercenary corps in the area. Nor can you have a mercenary corps that exceeds a hundred people on this land. Ever since the four mercenary clans were exterminated, the mercenary corps with more than a hundred people like that Cheetahs, or Flying Eagles, and all the others have all been exterminated as well.”

The general’s brows furrowed. “So you’re saying, if we don’t conform to the rules here, we’ll be exterminated as well?”

Vala said in a high-pitched voice, “That’s right! You also have to pay taxes and fees, and if you calculate by headcount, you will need to turn over twenty million for the first quarter.”

The general raged. “If we had the money, why would we be here at all?”

Diesel: “So no money, right? Where did you get the car if you have no money? And where did you get all this stuff in your truck? Where did you get the guns without money? It’s alright if you’ve got no money; we’ll seize your supplies and guns, and you just have to follow the rules when you’re in the Continental Mercenaries area. No matter what country you are fugitives from, you will be protected here equally. There’s no need to arm yourselves at all.”

The general clenched his fists and looked at Diesel stubbornly. “I take it you don’t understand human language. As I said, there is no way we’ll cooperate. This is the Land of Mercenaries, so if you’ve got anything, let’s talk after we fight.”

“You really want to fight?” Vala asked with interest.

A few of the subordinates behind the general looked at the trio mockingly. “How dare the three of you come to collect tolls? Are you not afraid of getting bullets in your heads?”

At that moment, Li Wei tucked his thumb and forefinger into his mouth and blew a whistle.

On a seemingly empty mountainside, five tanks suddenly appeared and aimed directly at the M Nation troops.

The M Nation army, who looked calm before, sensed the danger and immediately became alerted.

The general suddenly took out a pistol and pointed it at Diesel. “We are all trying to live here. Do not be so harsh on us. Your continental mercenary corps has occupied three-fifth of the land, and there’s about two-fifth left. Spare some space for the others.”

Diesel wasn’t nervous at all and said, “We could spare some for the others, but you can only have it if we give it to you. We don’t want those with lots of power to become a potential rival in the future.”

The general pulled the trigger. “Don’t force me!”

Li Wei suddenly jumped out of the car.

“Let’s talk it over. We’re just here today to collect some fees, do you really want to fight us? Honestly, even if you could take out the three of us, you’d be blown to bits by the five tanks behind you, think about if it’s really worth it.”

“Then don’t be such a bully!!” the general snorted.

Li Wei stopped in front of him and slowly raised his hand, trying to push down his gun so it didn’t point to anyone.

“Hold still.” As soon as his hand touched the general’s wrist, an electric current caused the general to fall onto the ground instantly.

Li Wei snatched the pistol from his hand, and stepped on the general’s head as he pointed the gun to his forehead and said to the soldiers behind him, “Either he dies, or you guys hand over all the supplies and follow the rules!”

The two hundred M Nation soldiers disguised as mercenaries were all furious, but they didn’t dare to make a move.

Li Wei laughed. “You have exposed yourselves as a foreign mercenary corp. Usually the local mercenaries would rush up if their boss was being held hostage. It’s been said that if the boss is being held hostage, those mercenaries would rush up, yet you are deeply afraid that something might happen to your boss. Let me analyze the situation in which this is usually possible? I take it that you and your men all came from some other country? This man looks like your head, and I know obedience is a soldiers’ duty; he has been held hostage, and yet none of you dared to make a move? This discipline of yours shows that you guys do belong to a regular army.”

Those soldiers immediately raised their guns uniformly and pointed them at Li Wei and the others. They snapped. “Let him go!”

Diesel said loudly, “Do you know why the Land of Mercenaries is called the Land of Mercenaries? Because no other countries’ politics or military forces are allowed to interfere around here!”

Having said that, Li Wei pulled the trigger and shot the general in the head with a bullet.

Pang! The general died instantly from a direct blow through the head.

Vala and Diesel then quickly grabbed Li Wei and hid behind the car.

Meanwhile, the five tanks on the mountainside aimed and fired at the area they were standing at.

The dust blew up and flew around in the air, the soldiers were also trying to hide from the explosions. At this time, Li Wei and the others took this chance to get into their car and leave.

The soldiers that were dodging the gunfire and explosions weren’t noobs as well as they quickly got into their vehicle and followed Li Wei and the other two towards where they were heading.
