Chapter 149 Bad News

Shi Heng, a man of three days, is worthy of being a veteran who has been in Sunset City for thousands of years.

Not only did he have the channel to purchase the space jump device, but he also gave Yan Xing two options. The first one was the simplest and most convenient. He could try his luck on the black market and maybe he could find the treasure he needed.

It is forbidden by the [Mechanical Kingdom] order. Standard equipment used in the military is not allowed to flow into the market, at least on the surface. The normal processing flow is to recycle, "seal", or directly destroy, then recycle it into materials for reuse.

Yan Xing understands this approach very well. After all, there are no permanent allies in the world, only eternal interests. The situation is unpredictable. Maybe one day the Nine Clans Alliance will disintegrate. If too many terrorist weapons are scattered outside, won't they create hidden dangers for themselves?

However, when the benefits reach a certain level, even the ban of the [Mechanical Kingdom] is not unbreakable. There will never be a shortage of lunatics in the world who take risks. What a coincidence, one such lunatic happened to be in Sunset City recently, and he was Shi Heng's backup plan for Yan Xing.

"Let's go."

Yan Xing threw down his wine glass, without touching the dishes on the table, crossed out 1,000 contribution points to settle the bill, and led Shi Heng out of the restaurant.

The most dangerous places are often the safest.

The black market is not in such a small border town, nor in the wilderness, but in the center of the Sunset City cluster - Sunset Ancient City, and it is also in the most prosperous area of ​​the ancient city.

Yan Xing estimated that the location of the black market was mostly chosen for the sake of passenger flow. Secondly, the protective umbrella was probably a powerful figure in the ancient city, enough to cover the sky with one hand.

"Teleport, target Sunset Ancient City, consume 100 contribution points. 』

What is transmitted in the virtual world is the body of consciousness, which essentially does not contain any mass and consumes almost no energy. Therefore, the price is extremely cheap, with a maximum of no more than 1,000 contribution points, and you can cross the first plane.

A burst of dazzling brilliance swallowed up the conscious bodies of Yan Xing and the two people, and instantly spanned a long distance, from the small coastal town to the most prosperous Sunset Ancient City in the far west.

The ancient city lies prone on the plain. This city is not a common rectangular city, but a regular circle, with a diameter of one million kilometers across from left to right. In the outer area of ​​the towering city wall, at every distance, there is a crystalline corridor that looks like a spike extending outward. The length varies from ten thousand to one hundred thousand kilometers. The crystalline corridor connects the city roads and the city gates and caves. It is the only way to enter the ancient city.

Looking down from a high altitude, this majestic ancient city is like a two-dimensional sun. Those crystal corridors of different lengths are the brilliance of the sun, shining with colorful divine light, which is extremely dazzling.

This is the Sunset Ancient City, the Sunset Realm known as the "most brilliant colorful crystal flower" in the far west of the Infinite Continent, and the gathering center of monks generated in the virtual world.

The black market wanders outside the light, testing back and forth on the edge of the rules. What is taboo is the items traded on this occasion, not the black market itself.

With Shi Heng leading the way, everything went smoothly. After Yan Xing paid 10 contribution points, he entered Sunset Ancient City, wandered around, and came to the black market hidden in the shadow of a church.

Yan Xing's eyes were filled with surprise, and he looked around. Unexpectedly, there was still a huge space in the light and shadow of the object. His method was very clever and ingenious. With the movement of the sun and the bright moon, the entrance to this space was constantly moving, and the entrance to this space was constantly moving. The secret has also changed relatively, and the safety is extremely high.

"Is this the most prosperous black market in Sunset Ancient City?"

Yan Xing glanced at Shi Heng, his eyes a little disappointed. As far as he could see, the vast square was filled with figures in black robes. There was a light curtain floating in front of them, with the things for sale written on it.

There are all kinds of strange things, and many things that are not allowed in the outside world can be seen here, but only by name.

"Sir, this is the characteristic of the virtual world. It is indeed very different from the material world."

Shi Heng shook his head and smiled bitterly, feeling something strange in his heart. During the period of contact with this adult, he found that although he was obviously powerful, he seemed a bit ignorant in some common sense. It was very strange. Although he was a little curious, his life was... He held it in his hand, and he didn't dare to ask any more questions.

"Unfortunately, if you want to try your luck and pick up the leak, you have no chance."

Yan Xing shook his head. When setting up a stall in the material world, one must put things outside to show people. But if one wants to send materials into the virtual world, a certain amount of contribution points must be consumed according to the value of the items, which is equivalent to taxes. Businessmen pursue profits. Naturally, Not willing to spend extra money for nothing.

Therefore, merchants in the market will only list all the items for sale, describe their functions in detail, and at most add a three-dimensional holographic image. If the transaction is completed, the goods will be sent out through "hyperdimensional transmission".

Before the two parties have established trust, in order to prevent being hacked, there are specialized institutions that provide guarantee services, identify the goods, and keep the payment, and only charge 1% of the deposit. Even the black market has its own institution, but the deposit is higher. Above some, it is 2%.

The trading system has been developed in the virtual world for more than 200 billion years and is already very complete. As long as you are careful, it is still difficult to be defrauded.

Yan Xing asked Shi Heng to inquire about the information. The two of them acted separately while he wandered around to see if there was anything of interest.

"Huh?"

Yan Xing paused and looked at the light screen beside him. Some familiar words caught his attention.

This is not a treasure, but a piece of information. Information is also a commodity. Some special secrets can even be called priceless treasures.

"The Maozhen region, the battle of the ruins of creation, the statistics of the losses of the forces in each holy land, and the inference of the whereabouts of the ruins, come from the Yao Gua of Su Lao of Tianyan Holy Land, guaranteed to be genuine and genuine, and only sold for 5,000 contribution points. 』

Because information products can be traded repeatedly, it is difficult to calculate the authenticity based on the value. However, it is just a mere 5,000 contribution points and a few meals, and Yan Xing doesn't care.

"Boss, I want this information."

"Okay! Chenghui contributes 5,000 points!"

The two of them stretched out their left hands at the same time and showed their wrists. Yan Xing's blue bracelet was extremely eye-catching and immediately attracted a lot of attention. The vendor's breath froze and his pupils trembled.

"What's wrong?"

Yan Xing frowned and asked when the other party still refused to initiate a transaction.

"Ahem, no, it's nothing. Don't blame me, sir. I mistakenly marked the price at this moment. It should be 2,000 contribution points. Two thousand, two thousand is enough."

"Oh, whatever."

Buzz——

Two rays of light emitted from their respective bracelets, connected in the void, and intertwined to create a light curtain, with squares filled with products and grids for inputting contribution point values.

"Sir, please walk slowly!"

Yan Xing nodded, turned and left. In the space of the bracelet, there was a piece of text with tens of thousands of words. The content above was just vernacular intelligence information, not something obscure like Kung Fu. He could engrav it in his mind at a glance. .

"Dozens of Holy Land coalition forces were wiped out?"

"The relics of creation have disappeared!?"

Yan Xing frowned. Naturally, he would not believe everything in the intelligence. However, these two items were too involved to be concealed. Everyone should have known about them. As for the deduction of the whereabouts of the relics of creation, he only half-believed them. This kind of value was extremely valuable. High intelligence will not be easily left out, half-truths and half-falsehoods are very common tactics.

"So many gods and demons have joined forces, but still no one has survived. It's even worse than the first time. What is in this relic of creation?"

"In the future, where should we look for traces of the ruins..."

Yan Xing is a bit secretive. Whether it is to fulfill the promise with the unknown senior or everything related to the "Concept Editor", he will definitely enter the ruins, but the current situation is a bit complicated.

He originally thought that the ruins would be controlled by the Holy Land. He could at least know whose hands the ruins were in, and it would not be difficult to find a way to get in. At least it would be better than now. The sky is so vast, where should he look for it?

"It's useless to think too much. I just hope that the unknown senior can persevere and don't die early."

Yan Xing glanced at the text again. It used a lot of pen and ink to describe the power of the supreme gods and demons. Unfortunately, they all disappeared together with the ruins of creation. This was a tragic situation that had never occurred in the history of ruin exploration. From this, It can be seen that this ruins is unusual.

After learning the bad news, Yan Xing stopped thinking about wandering around and turned back to the entrance of the black market. After waiting for a while, Shi Heng hurried over.

"Sir, I'm sorry to disappoint you. There is nothing you need on the black market during this time."

Shi Heng lowered his head, as if he had sensed something, and he didn't even dare to breathe.

The bad news came one after another, and Yan Xing became even more unhappy. His face darkened, and he walked out to the outside world with his sleeves rolled up.

"Hmph, let's go, take me to see the madman you mentioned."
