Chapter 199: Chapter 166: The Shock of Two High-Level Players (Three in One) _3
“`
He also took out the orange juice he had prepared in advance and poured a glass for Honey Fool.
This was a specialty he had purchased in Yellow Iron City before setting off. Due to the plague, prices had soared, making this type of high-grade fresh orange, also known as “Sunkist,” even more expensive, at 1 Silver Ducat and 20 Copper Kro per piece.
This small bottle of orange juice alone cost 6 Silver Ducats.
“Thank you.”
Honey Fool took the cup and took a sip.
The juice trickled down his throat, cool and sweet, seeming to reduce the surrounding heat as well.
“Indeed, there is quite a bit of information, but it’s all through the group owner Su Keying… She happened to join Jack’s command during the internal test, an organization of Transcendents now renad ‘Circus.'”
Honey Fool said.
“According to her, Jack issues so high-quality quests with very generous rewards. He also has a lot of good items in his hands, exclusive arsenal weapons, all sorts of Mysterious Objects, and Supernatural Knowledge, and even tickets to advanced instances.”
Gan Ziwen’s eyes lit up.
“I see. Thank you very much for your information, Honey Fool.”
He nodded, then fell into thought.
Honey Fool looked at him, recalling how he had steadily poured the juice on the bumpy train ride, and then asked:
“Which path are you on? Constellation, Conspiracy, or Deep Sea? Only those of Sequence Nine from these three paths would have the kind of balance and hand stability you possess.”
Gan Ziwen looked up in surprise, chuckled, and said:
“Your observational skills are sharp, Honey Fool… I am ‘Deep Sea Faction Sequence Nine – Sailor,’ skilled in naval combat, with outstanding balance and close combat abilities.”
Honey Fool revealed a smile that said ‘as expected,’ and then also tacitly shared his own information:
“I am ‘Magic Faction Sequence Nine – Scholar.’ My physical enhancent isn’t significant. My main strength lies in mory abilities, and actual combat relies on pre-drawn ‘Magic Scrolls.’ I don’t yet have the ability to cast spells.”
Gan Ziwen looked enlightened.
“So you’re a mage, my apologies.”
“A mage who can’t even conjure a fla…”
Honey Fool rolled his eyes.
“Speaking of Jack, I am actually quite interested in his identity. Characters that appear in the opening CG aren’t simple by any asure…”
Gan Ziwen said.
Honey Fool nodded, agreeing with his statent.
“Right, Su Keying once ntioned sothing, that this NPC seed to have talked about hearing a call from another world, as if praying to him, hoping he could go to save…”
“Listening to you, it reminds of several legends, extrely similar to his situation…!”
Gan Ziwen listened, then added a few of his own conjectures.
The two of them chatted back and forth like this, quite enjoying themselves.
“Excuse , is this seat taken?”
At this mont, a deep voice rang out.
Gan Ziwen and Honey Fool both looked up, and imdiately, they were both startled.
It was a tall gentleman wearing a black flat top hat, dressed in a black suit, with his face enveloped in twisting black mist, making it impossible to see his features.
“No one’s here… Please, take a seat.”
Gan Ziwen, reacting quickly, imdiately got up to give way, and then conveniently sat down next to Honey Fool, sitting alongside him opposite the man in the black top hat.
“Thank you.”
Chen Lun casually sat down, nodding in acknowledgnt.
Gan Ziwen exchanged a discreet glance with Honey Fool, both sensing that this man was extraordinary, and then together cast “Scout” on him.
Above the man’s head appeared his ID—”Black ssenger.”
As for the rest, there were just lines representing the unknown, followed by a panel warning that he was an “extrely lethal” dangerous entity.
“!!”
Both of them were instantly shocked.
They had not expected that just by taking a casual train ride, they would encounter such a terrifying NPC. Even though both of them had now beco Transcendents, they still felt like tiny mice in his presence.
Gan Ziwen, seeing the na “Black ssenger,” felt it was familiar.
He silently opened the forum and, after seeing a string of thread titles, recalled that this was the mysterious rchant from Novice Village that was recently popular?!
What was he doing here?!
“—Black ssenger?! I saw the group mbers discussing Him in the support group… Su Keying said that after the Battle of the Square, the local residents began to worship Jack, calling him the ‘Black ssenger’!”
Honey Fool sent a ssage to Gan Ziwen.
Gan Ziwen’s heart suddenly raced.
“—Are you saying that this mysterious person is Jack?!”
“—Very likely!”
Chen Lun silently observed the two players before him, who seed slightly different from what he rembered. They lacked a certain composure, showing more naivety.
‘Right, their arcane journey has just begun, lacking enough experience,’ he thought.
After leaving Erald Town, Chen Lun had used so clues from the forum and Divination, after much effort, to finally find Gan Ziwen and Honey Fool.
His goal was to transplant these two promising seedlings into his own field, to cultivate them well and then have them bring him greater returns.
“Good day to you both. Ah, a friendly reminder, next ti, do not pry so casually into others’ privacy…”
Chen Lun said indifferently:
“It could be lethal.”
