In the square, there was a rush of people. People were busy doing their own things, and they didn't have time to take a second look here.
"Come for one. It only costs five soul stones. It's very cheap!"
The mermaid was not embarrassed or annoyed when Downton stared at her breasts. Instead, she puffed up her breasts proudly and tried her best to sell her map.
"Can you understand what I'm saying?"
Downton was curious.
"I'm a fool. I want to make a living in the Soul Continent. I can't fight, so I can only rely on these small means."
The mermaid was about to cry, vividly portraying the image of a girl living a hard life in order to win sympathy.
"Are you kidding? Even if mermaids are not the largest group here, they are among the top three."
Downton pouted, "Don't treat me like a fool!"
"How did you know?"
The mermaid was stunned and looked at Downton again. Judging from her ten years of experience, this was indeed a newcomer.
Downton smiled mysteriously and glanced at the huge temple in the distance. Not to mention the architectural style of the Ocean Clan, the statue of Poseidon, the God of the Sea, on the square already explained everything. If the Sea Clan did not have the strength,
How is it possible to build these structures that demonstrate ownership?
The mermaid was very smart. She figured it out as soon as she rolled her eyes, and immediately swam to catch up. "Well, given your cleverness, with three soul stones, the map is yours."
With that said, the mermaid took the map into Downton's arms and put on a sad expression, as if you had taken advantage of her.
"Have you noticed that I'm a newcomer? You still don't know that I'm a pauper?" Downton teased, "How do newcomers know what a soul stone is?"
"Come on, humans, every new person who comes here is in tatters and has gone through a hard battle. Look at you again, not to mention the tired look, there is not even a stain on your clothes, you call yourself a bastard? Who do you think you are?
letter?"
Sensing Downton's cunning, the mermaid rolled her eyes and stopped acting. She directly threw the map to Downton.
"I know you are very powerful, so the map is just a meeting gift from me. If it will benefit you in the future, remember to take care of it!"
The mermaid patted Downton's back boldly, turned and left, "Goodbye, I'm going to find the next big fat sheep."
"etc."
Downton calls.
"What do you want to do? First of all, let me state that I will not sleep with you!"
The mermaid looked at Downton warily. Although everyone is a soul and cannot have sex, the physical contact can still be satisfying.
"I need a guide!"
Downton shrugged his shoulders, "I need a place where I can improve my strength as soon as possible!"
After seeing the reflection on the Stone of Destiny, Downton needed strength even more urgently. Otherwise, how could he compete with Heinrich, the continent's number one star of hope, for Di Lanxue?
"It's not cheap to hire me."
The mermaid is deciding whether the deal is worth it.
Downton was too lazy to talk nonsense and threw a bag over.
The mermaid opened it and her eyes were dazzled by the light of the soul stone.
"ah!"
The mermaid was so excited that she might have hugged a thigh.
Some people passing by heard the mermaid's exclamation and turned their heads to look over.
"Ahem, I know a place where you can both improve your strength and earn soul stones."
The mermaid 'swam' to Downton and hugged his arm affectionately.
Downton noticed that the mermaid's tail was covered with a film of water, which protected her scales from being worn away during movement.
"If you are so powerful, you will definitely not work as a coolie to hunt soul beasts and make a fortune. Then go to the soul refining area to duel. Every time you win, you will get an income. The more you win, the richer your income will be."
The mermaid seems to be thinking about Downton, but in fact she has a small calculation. If he can't prove his worth, the mermaid doesn't mind selling him.
On the way, through small talk, Downton also got a general idea that this is the Mermaid Square, which belongs to the Xituhai tribe.
In order to obtain this area, the Sea Tribe shed a lot of blood, so it is natural for them to levy a certain amount of tax.
No one knows the whole picture of the Soul Continent, but there is a rule to follow, that is, the oracle gems obtained on a certain continent are mostly transmitted to people from the same continent. The people from other continents that Downton saw,
They all got lost.
"So, the evil god's subordinates are also here?"
Downton asked.
"Shh, here, this name is taboo and cannot be mentioned."
The mermaid put her index finger between her lips, signaling Downton to be silent, and then pointed not far away. Sure enough, there were evil gods wandering around.
"You wait here, I'll go through the formalities."
The mermaid left, maybe because she had connections with local snakes, or maybe she was worried that Downton would run away, so within ten minutes, she came back with a few shells in her hand.
"It has been arranged. Your match will be in the evening. If you can win, continue and win one game and get one hundred soul stones."
The mermaid handed a nameplate to Downton, "Here, sign it!"
"Isn't it written above that you can win one hundred and fifty soul stones? Your commission is fifty yuan?"
Downton glanced at the words on the shell, and with one sentence, an embarrassed look appeared on the mermaid's face.
"Can you understand Hai Clan's writing?"
The mermaid didn't dare to explain randomly. In fact, the commission has been eliminated.
"Understand a little!"
Downton pouted.
"It's weird to believe you. If you have a little understanding, you can directly find the most important information from a contract of several hundred words?"
The mermaid slandered in her heart, not daring to show any dissatisfaction on her face, and at the same time gave up trying to be clever, "That fifty yuan will be taxed, I will pay it directly for you."
"I remember that no one can die in the Soul Continent. It's not a life and death fight? Who wants to pay to see it?"
Downton was noncommittal.
"People will die in the Soul Fighting Area. Do you want to go?"
The mermaid looked at Downton suspiciously, wondering if he was pretending to be a wolf with a big tail or if he was really fearless.
"One hundred yuan is really a small amount."
Downton has absorbed the energy from the soul stone, which is slightly stronger than the magic stone, but in terms of his magic energy reserves, it is still a drop in the bucket.
"It's quite a lot. A newcomer only earns more than ten yuan a day. This is still a time of good luck."
The mermaid reassured, "Don't underestimate the competition in the soul refining area. Once you are 'killed', you will need to cultivate for a long time before you can re-enter the soul continent, and you will also lose your memory and part of your soul. So most people are not willing to duel."
"Okay, I'll wait for you here tonight!"
Downton crushed the floating bone.
"Huh? Where are you going? I haven't asked you yet. What level are you at?"
The mermaid asked, but Downton's figure had disappeared, making her stamp her feet angrily, "Damn human, I'll make it easier for you at night."
Appearing on a small island again, Downton lurked. He wanted to hunt more time and space fish. With the floating bones, he could increase the number of teleportations. When in danger, he would not have to worry about being surrounded and killed.
At night, the Mermaid Square is brightly lit, and there is a sweet fragrance wafting due to the whale oil.
"I won't be let go, right? There are many words in Wucuo Novel Network"
There were only a few minutes left before the appointed time. The mermaid hadn't seen Downton yet, which made her very anxious. To participate in the competition, there was a registration fee. If the other party was absent, she would lose money.
"Oh, I always thought that if I met a fool, I would catch him quickly. But I made a miscalculation."
The mermaid glanced at the bell tower not far away and prepared to leave.
"Who are you calling a fool?"
The sudden sound from behind startled the mermaid. She suddenly turned around and saw the human being.
"gone!"
Downton, who had already asked for the route, went straight ahead.
"Hey, why are you, a newcomer here, so arrogant? I'm the guide!"
The mermaid muttered, wanting to see Downton defeated and asking for help from her, and she would ridicule him when the time came, but she didn't get her wish until she entered the duel arena.
"We are in the sixth game, let's go to the rest area and wait!"
Seeing Downton going through the admission formalities alone, showing no signs of unfamiliarity, the mermaid didn't want to appear incompetent and quickly took over.
In the rest area, the atmosphere was slightly depressing. Dozens of contestants were either meditating, exercising, or even praying devoutly.
"Wait a moment, I'll go out to get some information."
The mermaid is leaving.
"Are you going to place a bet?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.
Downton sat down and with one word, the mermaid froze in place.
"Ah? Haha, what did you say?"
Mermaids have a way of being embarrassed by being guessed.
"Usually in this kind of competition, there must be some peripheral gambling. Go and buy and I will win!"
Downton took out a large bulging bag, threw it to the mermaid, and then closed his eyes to rest.
Almost all of the people present were Westerners. When they heard Downton's arrogant words, their eyes immediately turned to him.
"Haha, are you kidding me?"
The mermaid was on pins and needles, but it was a pity that Downton did not answer him.
"Is this kid sick? Many words on Wucuo Novel Network offended everyone!"
The mermaid complained and opened the bag, but her eyes were instantly blurred. Inside, there were actually seven or eight top-quality soul stones, which meant that Downton had killed the same number of super-level soul beasts.
Some contestants with good eyesight also saw it and showed greedy looks. The frightened mermaid hugged the bag and ran away.
"Should I change my plan and buy him to win?"
The mermaid hesitated. In her dictionary, newcomers were used to cheat, so when she was preparing for the competition, she made some tricks to make Downton lose, so that the bet would be obtained. Although it was not much, it was better than nothing, but Downton was like this
The generous move scared her.
"Forget it, let's wait and see."
The mermaid made a decision, "I hope you are not an overly arrogant fool!:"
The soundproofing facilities in the duel arena are good, but there are still noises coming from there. Without it, there are too many people watching the match. Here, unlike in the West, you can go to taverns, watch operas, and have sex with a homeless man under the street lights.
In addition to boring hunting every day, you can also watch competitions for entertainment, and there are various races, and you can also see many novel martial arts.
People kept leaving the rest area, and those who didn't come back were considered defeated.
"Hey, human, it's your turn!"
The mermaid rushed in. When she saw Downton, she immediately pulled him up and rushed forward, "You are so lucky. There is a big event today. Not only is the Rookie King going to appear, but also the King who once won ninety-nine consecutive victories in one night.
The Violent Whale Sword King will also appear." (To be continued.)
ps: I have a fever, a headache, and the coding efficiency is extremely low. I originally wanted to have three updates until the end of the month, but it seems that it is no longer possible. I will commit to one chapter every day. Please forgive me. Woohoo, I have to participate next month.
I haven’t saved any manuscripts for the annual meeting, I’m so worried!
