Capítulo 1141: Chapter 401: Entering the Black Market, Strange and Unusual Items
There was a complex look in her eyes.
It was a mixture of being touched, feeling a bit humiliated, and a sense of helplessness.
Finally, she sighed and pocketed all the money.
…
…
After leaving Kadina Money Shop, it was already past three in the afternoon.
[Due to your generous gift, Natalie Scott’s goodwill has increased, current goodwill: Friendly]
Seeing the system prompt, a smile appeared again on Cao Xing’s lips.
“Great, the things I needed to do in rlin City are basically done, and everything went smoothly.”
“Now I just need to wait until the evening to go to the Black Market with Jes, and then I can return to the territory.”
However, there was still one or two hours left before the agreed ti with Jes.
During this ti, Cao Xing planned to take Sarah, Renice, and Eliza for a stroll around rlin City.
The group of Wild Boar Warriors was sent back to the tavern by Cao Xing.
He also gave them so money, letting these soldiers have a good drink.
When Renice and the others heard that Cao Xing was going to take them around rlin City, their faces lit up with happy smiles.
Eliza was so excited that she hopped around beside Cao Xing.
On the way.
The three won lingered in front of various stalls.
Now and then, buying a snack and then looking at the small accessories by the roadside.
Sotis they would also go to shops in the city to look at clothes and jewelry.
As Old Master Cao was now holding nearly sixty million in cash, he was quite generous.
Anything they fancied.
He would simply wave his hand and buy it!
Of course, these won only bought so small trinkets, spending hardly any money.
Cao Xing gladly satisfied their shopping desires in one go.
It wasn’t until after five in the afternoon, as the day gradually darkened.
That they left the bustling comrcial district with satisfied smiles.
Cao Xing took them to a place in the southern gate area of rlin City.
From a distance, he saw a figure waiting ahead.
The figure wore a black coat, with a woodpecker emblem on the chest.
It was the rchant Jes.
Upon seeing Cao Xing, Jes’s face imdiately showed joy.
“Cao Xing, my young friend, you are indeed punctual.”
Cao Xing smiled: “Lord Jes, sorry to have kept you waiting.”
The middle-aged man waved it off, saying, “No worries, I haven’t been here long either.”
“So without further ado, shall we head to rlin City’s Black Market?”
It was clear that Jes was even more eager about going to the Black Market than Cao Xing was.
Cao Xing chuckled lightly, “No problem, Lord Jes.”
“We can head over now.”
Under his guidance, the group continued along the periter street of rlin City, moving forward.
As it was almost six in the afternoon now, night had completely fallen.
Thus, the crowds on the streets of rlin City had visibly thinned.
And the further out they went, the fewer people there were.
Soon, they arrived at a scarce area.
At the sa ti, Jes remarked, “Cao Xing, my young friend, we’re almost there.”
Cao Xing hearing this, slowly directed his gaze into the distance.
What lay ahead was a scene shrouded in darkness.
In fact, the so-called Black Market wasn’t exactly the kind hidden entirely underground as imagined.
It was situated in a rarely visited outer area of rlin City.
Surroundings seed engulfed in darkness, with no light in sight.
However, with their extraordinary vision, Cao Xing and the others could easily see the surrounding scenery.
Ahead stood a looming ancient castle.
The castle appeared to be many years old, with weathered walls covered in moss and vines, exuding an aura of antiquity.
Inside, the ground was overgrown with weeds.
A spiked fence surrounded the area, with only one iron gate for entry.
Suddenly, two sharp, piercing bird cries emanated from above the iron gate!
“Caw—Caw—”
The sound pierced the silence of the night like a razor.
Everyone lifted their heads at once, seeing a pair of pitch-black crows perched on either side of the gate!
Their feathers rged with the night, making it almost impossible to discern their presence with the naked eye.
Eliza’s small mouth opened slightly, “Wow! What ugly crows!”
Hearing this, the crow on the left imdiately spoke in a hoarse voice, “Oh! Whose little girl is this, so rude, the Crow God will punish her.”
“Caw! Niao Er, you’re right. How about we just snatch her away and offer her to the Crow God?”
However, Eliza wasn’t scared at all.
“You can’t snatch away because you can’t beat , na-na-na…”
After saying this, she even made a face.
The two crows exchanged glances, “Niao Da, this little girl really is tougher than us, what do we do?”
“Oh! Foolish Niao Er, how should I know what to do, since we can’t beat her, let’s pretend we heard nothing.”
“Alright, Niao Da, indeed we heard nothing…”
Hearing the exchange between the two birds, a faint smile appeared on everyone’s faces, finding it quite amusing.
Jes turned around, smiling as he said, “Cao Xing, my young friend, these are the Black Market’s guardians.”
“An invitation is needed to enter.”
“I do have an invitation on , but it allows for only one extra person… so…”
Cao Xing nodded, “I understand.”
He turned to the won and said,
“Sarah, Renice, Eliza, you should stay outside.”
Hearing this, a hint of worry appeared in the eyes of the three won.
