This issue of the Black-Line Star Listing had changed a lot.
Unfortunately, even though there were many people outside the Chichi Trading Firm, the Chichi Trading Firm didn't make the slightest movement.
Under Ah Sang's order, the Chichi Trading Firm was closed for the next few days.
Many people who wanted to inquire about information, to befriend Chen Mu, to take him as their master, or who had other motives were helpless.
Currently, every city was under the control of the largest local power. For example, Zargan was under the control of the Southern Star Firm.
This was also why Miao Xuan dared to be so unbridled.
Also, Mao Hao, who was ranked 97th, was assassinated.
At the base, Xi Ping didn't even raise his eyelids. "I've already said that the boss isn't interested in this sort of thing." Bogner looked defeated to the side.
If one were to say that this issue of the Black-Line Star Listing had only given people another topic of conversation elsewhere, in Zargan, the sensation it had caused could be said to be unprecedented.
The Yan family of Zargan was a family that didn't show their strength. They rarely mingled with the other powers in Zargan and only focused on running their operating company.
But this family, which couldn't be said to be big or small, seemed to have some vague deterrent power. Even the Southern Star Firm, the largest group in Zargan, wouldn't provoke this low-key family.
Many large firms were alarmed by the powerful information channels of the Black-Line Star Listing's compilers. Ever since the Black-Line Star Listing had drawn their attention, they had never stopped investigating it, including giants like Moon Frost Island. But to that day, they still had nothing to show for it.
Chen Mu was wholeheartedly staying in the training arena, fumbling with the Golden Word Shackle in his hand.
In order to be able to concentrate on training, he personally ordered that no one was to disturb him unless there was an emergency.
Qiao Yun's initial ranking was set at seventy-two, but it was only for reference. He still needed to continue observing.
Xu Qianchen quickly got up. "Senior, long time no see. I'll have to trouble you again this time."
"We speculate that the other party should be in this area, but we don't have enough manpower to search the forest," Yan Hao said helplessly.
"Qiao Yuan, origin unknown, card used unknown.
They encountered Mo Ta's team in the first battle. Mo Ta's team was completely annihilated, and Captain Mo Ta died.
Mo Ta's famous card, the Golden Word Shackle, had fallen into his hands.
Yan Hao was full of admiration for Zeng Yushan's insight. His technical department had done so much work to come to this conclusion, and Zeng Yushan could see it at a glance.
Yan Hao was the current patriarch. He was already in his sixties, but he seemed to be in good spirits. However, there was still a trace of worry between his brows.
"Black-Line Star Listing?"
Chen Mu's expression was a little wooden. He had been so focused on training those last few days that he hadn't come back to his senses all of a sudden, so his eyes looked rather dull.
Reason for choosing him as the Storm Card Artisan of this period: This month, he battled with two card artisans ranked within the top 100, with one dead and one injured. His battle record is brilliant, which shows his tyrannical strength! "
The Black-Line Star Listing was still published every month without any delay, as though it hadn't been affected in the slightest.
At first, the Black-Line Star Listing circulated only among the various underground powers, and it gradually spread out later on.
This was what was written on it.
Zeng Yushan said steadily, "Where did these snow shuttle ships disappear from?"
Once that issue of the Black-Line Star Listing was released, the unknown name of Qiao Yuan suddenly entered everyone's field of vision.
Everyone was trying to guess where Qiao Yuan had come from.
After decades of development, the Black-Line Star Listing had become one of the most authoritative rankings in the Heavenly Drum Village District.
In people's minds, it was more authoritative than the Heavenly Drum Village District's official Heavenly Drum Ranking.
Unfortunately, the Black-Line Star Listing only paid attention to card artisans in the Dark World and wasn't interested in card artisans with official backgrounds.
Qiao Yuan and Zeng Yushan couldn't help but look surprised. The more they read, the more surprised they became.
When his gaze fell onto the words "jungle guerrilla warfare," he suddenly realized something in his mind!
The new issue of the Black-Line Star Listing arrived as scheduled.
Zeng Yushan studied the map carefully. After a moment, his eyes lit up as he pointed to an area on the map. "The adversary should be hiding in the vicinity.
This area is right in the middle of the seven shipping routes. It's very convenient for them to go wherever they want. "
"Don't tell me you still don't know?" Bogner was a little surprised by Chen Mu's reaction.
"Oh, let me see." Zeng Yushan showed some interest.
Overnight, there were circles of people outside the Chichi Trading Firm.
Quite a few groups were hoping to get lucky, hoping to have a relationship with that new ace.
More of them were young card artisans, ranked 72nd. Such an ace was enough to roam Zargan. If they could take such a powerful person as a master, their future would be self-evident.
Afterward, he fought with Jin Yin and managed to escape after being seriously injured.
Then he fought in the jungle and killed more than 20 members of Constellation.
In front of him, Zeng Yushan was sitting upright and listening carefully.
Their mission that time was to investigate the robbery of the Yan family's snow shuttle ship from the Damaha Passenger Transport Company.
"Then I'm going to train." Chen Mu snapped off the communications card and continued to immerse himself in his own exploration.
The most interesting thing was that after Jin Yin was injured, his ranking didn't drop but rose instead.
He jumped from 93rd to 85th.
Because of that, Constellation's reputation plummeted.
Zeng Yushan hurriedly complied before getting up to bow and leave the room.
Suddenly, the apparatus on his wrist sounded. He opened the communications card, and Bogner's image appeared on the screen.
The doubts in the minds of those who had been a little skeptical about Chen Mu immediately disappeared, replaced by incomparable fanaticism and worship!
He had no idea what was going on outside.
For example, the Blue Dragon, who had been ranked 26th, had suddenly jumped six places to enter the top 20.
Chen Mu didn't pay attention to it but asked in return, "What's the matter?" He seemed to have just gotten a little bit of the knack and didn't want to be interrupted like that.
Zeng Yushan and the others had special accommodations, and Lin Rou and the other girls were surrounding Yan Hao's daughter-in-law, Xu Qianchen, chattering happily.
Seeing that Zeng Yushan was also at his wits' end, Yan Hao saw that he looked rather tired, which reminded him that they had traveled such a long way and hadn't rested.
"Go get some rest, Yushan. We'll discuss things slowly. There will always be a way," Yan Hao said gently.
What puzzled Zeng Yushan the most was what their adversary's purpose was.
If it was a ransom, why hadn't there been any news yet?
But if it wasn't a ransom, then what was it?
Yan Hao's aged voice was full of exhaustion.
An accident like that would be a devastating blow to a passenger transport company.
For him to be able to hold on until then could already be considered tenacious.
"This is a map of their routes."
Yan Hao turned on the card player, and a map of the vicinity of Zargan appeared on the screen. The routes of the seven wrecked snow shuttle ships were marked with red lines.
Zeng Yushan rubbed his forehead. The problem was very tricky, and he didn't have any good ideas just then.
Their adversary must have had plenty of manpower. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to pull off so many cases at the same time.
Every snow shuttle ship was equipped with enough defensive power, and their adversary could still easily rob them. That meant their fighting power was strong enough.
Bogner laughed as soon as he saw Chen Mu. "You're really strong, Boss. Now you're on the Black-Line Star Listing, and your ranking isn't low."
What surprised them even more was that the mysterious ugly man had not only killed Mo Ta but also seriously wounded Jin Yin. How could they not worship such a battle record?
The most interesting thing was that every issue of the Black-Line Star Listing would bring out a "wind-cloud card artisan," which greatly satisfied people's curiosity.
The old order had been broken, and the new order had yet to be established.
Send someone in to spy on the news?
Don't joke around. The one living inside wasn't just any Tom, Dick, or Harry. That was Lord Qiao Yuan, who had been ranked 72nd on the Black-Line Star Listing for the first time!
"We've already had seven snow shuttle ships that have had accidents, involving more than 600 passengers.
Our adversary hasn't even negotiated with us, and we still don't know what his objective is.
We've already stopped all of the snow shuttle ships. "
The girls rushed to hand him the Black-Line Star Listing, and he lowered his head to study it.
But the most eye-catching thing on that issue of the Black-Line Star Listing wasn't those two.
It was an unfamiliar name called Qiao Yuan, who was that issue's wind-cloud card artisan.
As the situation in the federation worsened, people paid more and more attention to the Black-Line Star Listing.
Especially those big firms, who couldn't wait to take all the card artisans on it under their command.
With the situation like that, the prestige of the federal government had reached an all-time low, and no one had any misgivings about its existence.
Every law existed in name only, and it was as though people had suddenly returned to the state of warlords before the federation was founded.
"Ah?
Uh, uh, nothing much, "Bogner mumbled.
At first, people were skeptical about the Black-Line Star Listing, especially with some of the credentials listed on it. They really couldn't figure out how they had gotten that information.
But they quickly discovered, to their surprise, that as long as it was on the Black-Line Star Listing, it was basically all right.
Mo Ta was ranked 89th in the last issue, and Jin Yin was ranked 93rd.
Naturally, the Black-Line Star Listing in that period would inevitably attract attention.
Along with the increasing prominence of social contradictions, quite a few aces who had previously been in hiding came out one after another.
That also led to the Black-Line Star Listing changing quite a bit every issue. It wasn't as slow as the Heavenly Drum Roll, which naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Just then, another female student said excitedly, "Senior, senior, the new issue of the Black-Line Star Listing is out!
We were just discussing it! "
"What are you talking about?" Zeng Yushan said with a smile as he walked.
He and Xu Qianchen had known each other before, and he nodded with a smile. "Hello, junior. Professor Xu has always been concerned about you."
The Black-Line Star Listing was updated every month, and it would list in detail the fluctuations in the rankings for the past two months.
No one knew who made up the listing, but one thing was certain — it was authoritative!
