Free Web NovelChapter 80: Chapter 73: Mythical Tier Bizarre
At first, Zhong Yi just thought these soybean-sized black crystal spiders were ordinary bugs that thrived in a damp place like Zhuanyun Lane during the summer.
Spiders are very timid creatures and easily provoked.
When provoked, they bite whatever is closest to them.
If these small black spiders were venomous, many of the laborers in Yunzhuang Alley would have likely been poisoned long ago.
Therefore, Zhong Yi hadn’t paid them much mind, but the number of these black crystal spiders was simply staggering!
Spiders like warm, damp environments, but even in a place like the Green Field Underground Bar where the air conditioning was blasting, these black crystal spiders were still present.
Zhong Yi subconsciously used All Things Exploration to investigate the black crystal spider that had crawled onto his sleeve.
The result of the scan made Zhong Yi’s expression change abruptly.
But the change in his expression was fleeting, and he quickly regained his composure.
Zhong Yi never would have imagined that these seemingly harmless black crystal spiders were actually connected to a Bizarre.
Moreover, this Bizarre was at the Mythical Level!
Zhong Yi wasn’t sure what that Mythical Tier Bizarre intended to do by producing so many of these little spiders.
He had no idea if these little spiders were confined to Zhuanyun Lane or if they were appearing in other places as well.
Zhong Yi didn’t know what abilities these little spiders possessed, but at the very least, they had to have some form of surveillance ability.
Zhong Yi kept quiet, planning to finish his business in the Lower City District before returning to the Upper City District.
Then, he would immediately head to the Star Frost Tower and inform Lin Zhuo and Wen Tao of the situation in person.
No matter how bold that Mythical Tier Bizarre was, it wouldn’t dare let these little spiders operate in the Central District, especially not near the Star Frost Tower.
Whatever this Bizarre’s objective was, Zhong Yi could not expose his identity as a Celestial Destiny Seeker right now, much less reveal any related abilities.
Otherwise, regardless of what the Bizarre was planning, Zhong Yi would become its target.
These black crystal spiders were a manifestation of the Mythical Tier Bizarre’s ability. If they carried a potent venom...
...then every single person they crawled on would become the Bizarre’s hostage.
’If we really do decide to move against this Bizarre...’
He thought for a long time but couldn’t come up with a solution.
However, Zhong Yi wasn’t overly anxious. A Mythical Tier Bizarre wasn’t something he could handle on his own anyway.
’All I have to do is get to the Star Frost Tower and give Lin Zhuo and Wen Tao as much information as possible about this Bizarre.’
Having made his decision, Zhong Yi discreetly surveyed his surroundings. He saw many drunks passed out on the long elm tables.
Other patrons were gulping down the liquor in their cups.
The overwhelming stench of alcohol made one’s eyes sting. fгeewebnovёl.com
"Haha, Wang, I’m telling you! I got a pot of Ice Crystal Jade Dew for a steal."
"Pfft, in your dreams. If you got a pot of Ice Crystal Jade Dew for just 40,000 Federation Coins, then with my entire fortune, I could probably buy a Double-headed Simurgh!"
"Boss, when are we gonna fill these two spots on our squad? The resources from a six-person Secret Realm are way better than from an open one. If we don’t fill the slots, I’m just gonna go sub for another team."
"Damn it! I told you we’d have a full team this week! Have you already lined up your next squad?"
This place was a true melting pot of all sorts, and there might even be Bizarres hiding among the crowd.
The service in the Greenfield Tavern was nowhere near as attentive as what you’d find in the Star Law Hall in the Central District.
After Zhong Yi entered, absolutely no one paid him any mind.
Instead, it was Zhong Yi who had to walk up to the bar and tap lightly on the counter.
A tall, thin man sat at the bar, playing with a dagger. Every time he tossed it high into the air...
...the small, gold-ringed snake coiled around his wrist would always catch the hilt of the dagger by wrapping its forked tongue around it.
The tall, thin man glanced at Zhong Yi, then kicked a barrel beside the bar that stood nearly twice a man’s height.
"Pour your own drinks. Oakwood Ale is ten Alliance Coins a glass, eighteen for two. Fifty for unlimited refills."
"If you pass out here, it’s a twenty Alliance Coin charge for taking up space when you leave."
"Puke, and it’s a fifty-coin fine. You clean it up yourself with the provided tools."
Zhong Yi raised an eyebrow. No wonder business was so good at the Greenfield Underground Tavern. Unlimited refills for just fifty Federation Coins.
’They sure have a lot of rules, though!’
Expressionless, Zhong Yi took out 10,000 Federation Coins and slapped them on the counter.
"I’ll pass on the drinks. I need someone to show me the slaves for sale."
When the tall, thin man playing with the dagger heard Zhong Yi wanted to buy slaves, he flicked his wrist and plunged the blade into the heavily scarred wooden countertop.
The man first sized up Zhong Yi’s attire, then picked up the 10,000 Federation Coins from the counter and inspected them closely.
After confirming they were legitimate, he somewhat regretfully placed the bills back in front of Zhong Yi.
"Unfortunate timing. About two hours ago, all the slaves we had for sale were sent off for a major client to look over."
"They discovered a few rich mineral deposits outside the city, so slaves have been hard to come by for the past six months."
"If you’re serious about buying, tell me your requirements, and I’ll hold any suitable candidates for you." freewebnσvel.cѳm
"But for each one sold, I’ll need to take an additional twenty percent commission."
As he said this, the tall, thin man’s gaze remained fixed on the stack of bills on the counter.
Zhong Yi didn’t take back the stack of bills. Instead, with a push of his index finger, he slid the money back toward the man.
