Chapter 203: Gruesome Madness

The Golden Triangle: the only triangular zone in Southeast Asia that is made up of the borders of the three states – Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos.

A large area of the Golden Triangle is covered with mountains and hills that were located one thousand meters above sea level. The climate there was mostly hot, but was blessed with an abundance of rain. The fertility of the land promoted the growth of poppy plants. The land was densely covered with trees. The roads were rough and uneven. The folklore was sturdy, as all three states had their own plans. They didn’t want to waste too much energy on the annihilation of the Golden Triangle which would then lead to the decrease of their right of speech in the Federation.

In addition to that, there were a few people within these states who had a deep relationship with the Golden Triangle, which led to a high conflict of interest.

The Federation did not forcefully dispatch soldiers to surround and attack the area, despite the fact that this was one of the Federation’s main production base.

After all, the unevenness of the roads and the density of the trees at the Golden Triangle was not a concern for the Federation, thanks to the advancement of today’s technology. The Federation could simply dispatch a large number of “Jungle Rangers”. This small mobile armor was only two meters in volume. It was extremely suitable for jungle operations and the abolishment of the Golden Triangle.

Following the deliberate indulgence of the three states, not only did the major warlords of the Golden Triangle hire some martial arts masters, they even bought a lot of Jungle Rangers through different channels and equipped in their private army.

The Federation had to put in some effort in order to demolish the Golden Triangle.

However, the Federation didn’t have the resource to care about the Golden Triangle, as they had more important things that need to be taken care of.

The Golden Triangle was a paradise. A paradise where criminals could flee to in order to avoid being captured by the government.

This place was also hell. As this place could be said to be a wolf’s den: fleeing here did not guarantee safety. If you were a wolf, you could only manage to survive if you manage to gain recognition from the surrounding wolves.

They would not hesitate to pounce on you and mercilessly bite you to death if they were to find out that you were just a sheep covered in the skin of a wolf.

As most rapists are trash, it was very unlikely for rapists to flee to the Golden Triangle. Even if they did, there was a high possibility that they would be sodomized to death.

Qin Fen had already memorized this information thoroughly.

At the moment, he was dressed in a camouflage uniform, standing by the streets of Luang Namtha Province in Laos, watching passerby.

In Luang Namtha, many dressed similar to Qin Fen. They would be in a camouflage uniform, with a pistol hung around their waist. It was the standard dress code for those who had recently fled from other countries into Luang Namtha.

The only reason that could make a passerby take a second look was Lin Ling, who was beside Qin Fen, dressed in clothes similar to his. It was not common for a man to be accompanied by a beautiful lady while fleeing into Luang Namtha, even more so when they were both of such a young age. This was the only possible reason for a passerby to want to look a second time.

The two were not holding hands. It was obvious to those with experience that these two were in a state of nervousness and wariness. Even if it was just a slight movement, they would be able to enter the battlefield immediately.

After three days of hiding in a hotel, Qin Fen and Lin Ling finally had their first day of outdoor activities ever since they arrived Luang Namtha.

The two actually had plans to leave earlier to perform their task, but according to the psychology of an escaped criminal, joining a certain organization immediately after they had arrived at a foreign place seemed abnormal.

Recently escaped criminals would most likely still be traumatized from the fleeing, Hence, it was only right for them to lay low for a while and properly study their surroundings.

After unwillingly waiting for three days, they let out a big sigh of relief as they walked through the streets.

By doing this, the three-day gap would be an apparent finding regardless of how future investigations would be done. Hence, allowing others to assume that everything was normal.

Another three days had passed, the two were wandering around the streets. They would occasionally whisper a question to the passerby.

On the morning of the seventh day at Luang Natham, someone had knocked down their room door.

The hotel owner was the one who knocked on the door. He seemed very upset.

Of course, for a customer to owe the bill, and a customer who seemed to unable to pay the bill at that, made it very difficult for the hotel owner to be in a good mood.

“Can you give us a few more days ?” Qin Fen asked carefully.

“No! This way I will lose more money,” The dark skin shop owner who showed a hostile expression, shook his head firmly. “You have to clear all your debt that you owe me! If you really can’t afford to…”

The hotel owner could not stop looking at Lin Ling’s beautiful body with his perverted eyes.

There are some things that do not need to be explained through words. Instead, it can be understood just by a single look.

His vision was blocked before the hotel owner had a chance to ogle her body more. A strong palm gripped around his neck forcibly, and he was single-handedly lifted off the ground.

“Look at her again, and I will kill you.”

Qin Fen, who had experienced life and death situations, showed no sign of mercy in his eyes. At the moment, the lack of emotions in his eyes and his tone of speech made him seem like a wounded beast.

“Right…right…”

The owner’s face turned red due to the shortness of breath. His legs were kicking in the air, and his head was nodding nonstop.

Qin Fen disdainfully threw the owner on the ground. As Qin Fen watched him coughed repeatedly, Qin Fen said again, “I have killed policemen and soldiers of the Federation, nevermind you”.

The owner laid on the ground, constantly rubbing his neck. Usually, the owner would still remain snobbish even to those who have killed. This was because he, too, had had numerous encounters with ruthless desperado.

Except for today.

It was unclear why the owner was so afraid just by the look in Qin Fen’s eyes. He did not even have the courage to look Qin Fen in his eyes.

“You… you…”The owner stuttered then said quietly, “That doesn’t mean that you can owe me money…”

“The money, I will pay,” Qin Fen sounded a little annoyed. “It’s just I don’t have enough money right now. I haven’t found a way to make money.”

“You’re so aggressive…” The owner carefully suggested, “You could try boxing. Fight people at Gruesome Madness. Not only can you get a prize when you win, there will also be a possibility for you to be noticed by a general and be recruited into his private army…..”

General? Qin Fen knew that it was the title used for those who had certain military power at the Golden Triangle. For instance, here, Wang Hao was also being called as General Wang because he had more than a thousand men under his command.

Gruesome Madness, on the other hand, was the most famous black market boxing spot at Luang Namtha.

Of course, there was no black market at Luang Namtha.

The Gruesome Madness here was completely out in the open. It was well-equipped with a glamorous boxing ring and a high-class auditorium.

It was unlike other places in the Federation, where you needed to find a place to organize such a life and death boxing. The stage was just simply made of soil.

Here, everything was formalized and systematized.

However, things that were considered legal here were prohibited under the Federation.

“Gruesome Madness?” Qin Fen, who knew everything, had to pretend as if he did not know anything. For these few days, he pretended to be short of money to let others tell him about it.

“Gruesome Madness is called life and death boxing by outsiders.” The owner had regained some energy, “After you step into the ring, death could be the result for the defeated who are not so lucky. Even if you’re lucky, you would probably be seriously injured or disabled. The people there will not fear you just because you boast that you had killed policemen and soldiers of the Federation. If you are not brave enough, it’s better not to go.”

Qin Fen immediately felt an increase in the owner’s heartbeat after the owner said those provocative words to him. The disdainful smile appeared again on Qin Fen’s face. He even dared to use such a lame method of provocation?

The owner was still a little provocative on the surface, but he already let out a smile that he could not contain. He knew that he had succeeded in provoking his customer just by the look on his customer’s face. Qin Fen would definitely join the Gruesome Madness. And when the time comes, he would be able to get some sort of referral fee.

If this tenant dies, that would be even better!

The owner began to fantasize that the female guest was the only one left. She would then be timid and helpless. It would easy for him to get the woman into the bed with him and play with her however he wanted.

There were some changes to the owner’s lower body the moment he realized how he could play with such a beautiful woman.

Qin Fen suddenly grabbed the owner’s collar and lifted him off the ground again.

This sudden movement scared the owner. The part of him that had just begun to change immediately got scared back into its original form as he thought that his fantasies had been discovered by Qin Fen.

“Take me to Gruesome Madness, I will earn the money I owe you.”

Qin Fen’s ice-cold voice frightened the owner, but at the same time made him feel relieved.

He was frightened because the coldness of his voice was the kind that could seep into your veins; he was relieved because Qin Fen did not notice his secret fantasies.

The owner resumed his fantasies right after he knew that they were still not noticed. However, that body part didn’t erect again. The shock just now seemed to have caused it to malfunction.

“Okay… okay…”

The owner repeatedly nodded his head as soon as his feet returned to the ground, but his eyes were filled with rage. The owner had begun to hate this young man. He was actually scared that his lower part malfunctioned. He didn’t know whether the problem would persist in the future.

If it is true… thought the owner, don’t I have to depend on drugs to maintain it from today onwards?

The thought of such a disaster happening in the future made him hate Qin Fen even more. He was too lazy to continue provoking Qin Fen. He immediately brought them out of the hotel, got onto his old little car, and drove along the bumpy roads.

Gruesome Madness was located approximately half an hour away which was not too far from the owner’s hotel. Besides, the was the reason Qin Fen chose to stay at this place was because he could get into this environment easily.

Upon arriving at the said Gruesome Madness, Qin Fen was still shocked by the size of the enormous building despite the fact that he already knew about this place from the information.

The building was only about fifteen floors high.

But the surface area of the building reminded Qin Fen of a building in ShengJing that he came across a long time ago.

Bird’s Nest!

The surface area of this building was no smaller than the Bird’s Nest that had become history.

The building appeared to be the exact opposite of brilliant. The walls were largely covered with bloodstains, just as its name suggested.

“Hmm! The blood on this building was the blood of those who lost the battle.” The owner once again revealed the provocative expression, “If you’re afraid of death, it is still not too late for you to quit.”

Qin Fen was too lazy to accompany his nonsense. Qin Fen simply kicked his butt and sent him into the door of Gruesome Madness.

Qin Fen didn’t immediately enter Gruesome Madness. Instead, he stood outside of the door, and took a deep breath, feeling the surrounding environment with his eyes closed.

For someone so advanced in his martial senses, he could easily sense the gruesome aggression that was coming from behind the thick walls of the building door.

Slowly opening both his eyes, Qin Fen stepped into Gruesome Madness.

At this moment, he knew that he was caught in the situation of life and death.

Here, there was no competition.

There was only life and death.

In the fight, anyone could die.

However, what guts did he have to face Song Wendong’s unyielding attitude if he was intimidated by something like this?
