Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After looking out the window for a minute or two, Flying Wolf retracted his gaze and calmly looked at Red Spider. His eyes glinted with a bright light as he solemnly said, “Do you think he won’t find out if we don’t tell him?
“Moss is a persistent kid and will do everything he can to find an answer to this matter. Instead of telling him to search around and waste his ti, should we have been direct with him?
“He probably feels the pressure of getting into Kyoto Institute. There are nearly two months of sumr vacation, and he probably doesn’t want to waste it. Moss just wants a place to improve himself.”
Red Spider questioned, “Then you should have told him about other places, not the Buried City.”
“We should no longer treat him like a child. His defense level and understanding of battle have surpassed his peers. You’ve seen his performance today.
“Moss is the country’s top scorer and ranked tenth countrywide. He deserves his reputation. That’s also why I told him about the Buried City and gave him the introduction letter,” the more Flying Wolf spoke, the more excited he beca. His eyes sparkled as he inadvertently smiled.
Red Spider frowned. Her face was full of worry. “But he’s only sixteen years old! The people of the Buried City are unfathomable!”
“That’s inevitable, so it would be best if it happened earlier. Even if we ‘pay Moss’s tuition fees’ now, it’s still limited. Otherwise, we’ll suffer a big setback in the future.”
“Huh?”
“Why are you being so wishy-washy now?”
“Leave him be. We’ll just watch quietly.”
Afterward, Flying Wolf paused and looked out the window again. He muttered aningfully, “I have a vague premonition that Moss’s future achievents will be beyond our imagination.” His eyes glinted with light and endless anticipation as he spoke.
Bang!
Red Spider slamd the table and abruptly stood up. She said sternly, “You’re the one who’s being wishy-washy! Don’t ever say those words in front of again, or I’ll give you a taste of my power!”
She angrily left Flying Wolf’s office imdiately after. Indeed, she was worried about Moss. She had experience training in the Buried City, after all. That was why she was worried about Moss.
…
According to Flying Wolf’s information, Moss quickly found the entrance to the Buried City. It was a coal mine at S Country and L Country’s junction. Although, that place was no different from an ordinary coal mine at first glance.
Busy workers and coal transport vehicles ca and went, showing the business’s continuous prosperity.
After observing for a while, Moss occasionally saw professionals wearing different clothes entering and exiting a vast black cave. He carefully observed the situation around him as he walked toward the cave.
After a while, he appeared before the cave but was not in a hurry to enter. Instead, he chose a place nearby where the coal miners rested and sat down.
As a person who had experienced two lifetis, Moss knew to observe and familiarize himself with the situation before anything else. He would ask the people around him for more information before making his next move.
However, a middle-aged man with gray hair and a muscular physique appeared before Moss could find soone to talk to. The middle-aged man asked, “Young man, are you here to look for gold in the Buried City?”
Moss was stunned when he heard that. He thought, ‘How did he know my purpose for coming here?’
Since he did not answer, the middle-aged man continued smilingly, “You don’t have to be surprised, young man. Judging from your outfit, you’re not here to work as a laborer. Since that’s the case, you must be here to enter Buried City.
“No less than 100,000 people go to Buried City yearly. I’ve worked here for ten years and seen every Tom, Dick, and Harry.”
Moss smiled at the middle-aged man but did not directly answer.
The middle-aged man noticed this and moved closer to Moss, saying lowly, “Young man, you can co to if you get any gems in there. I’ll buy them off you for a good price.”
He handed Moss a crumpled business card filled with black fingerprints as he spoke. Still, Moss did not know how to answer and smiled again.
“D*mn, is this kid mute?” The middle-aged man muttered and left angrily.
‘Oh, he’s a gem dealer. This seems like the dungeon, but how do I enter Buried City?’
Just as Moss was thinking, so saw his tender little face and could not help but talk about him.
“Is the Buried City’s threshold so low now? That kid doesn’t even have hair on his chest yet.” The person pointed his chin in Moss’s direction as he spoke.
“I don’t know. The city set the rules decades ago, so I don’t think they’ll change so suddenly.”
“Then that boy must be a newcor.”
“He must be crazy about money. Since he ca to such a place, he might not last long.”
…
Moss paid no attention to the people’s comnts. Instead, he kept observing the situation at the cave entrance and saw soone. The person seed to have shown sothing and entered the cave, but Moss could not see what it was due to how far the person was.
Thus, Moss walked toward the cave. Just as he reached the cave entrance, a drunk older man holding a wine bottle stopped him. “Hey! Show the teleportation door!”
Moss did not reveal the teleportation door, so the drunkard continued hesitantly, “Is it your first ti here?”
Moss silently nodded.
The drunkard took another sip of wine, squinted, and said slowly, “You need a teleportation door to enter Buried City. You can buy one from if you don’t have one. I’ll charge you one thousand yuan each. How many do you want?”
Then he thought of sothing and added, “Oh, I only accept cash.”
“I don’t have that much cash on . Can I use my card?”
The drunkard took another sip of wine and stretched his left hand. At the sa ti, he shook his left index finger a few tis.
His eyes lit up as he cleared his throat and said, “I can give the item to you in credit if you don’t have cash. If you return the item today, you can pay 2,000 in cash or gems of equal value, but I will charge you double tomorrow.”
Since Moss was already there, he could not return without entering. He helplessly shook his head and said, “Fine.”
The drunkard took a note he had prepared and threw it at Moss. “Sign it.”
Moss looked at its contents; it was basically what the drunkard had said. He signed the note and handed it to the drunkard.
The drunkard squinted his eyes and threw a teleportation portal at Moss. Moss picked it up and walked into the portal. After a short period of darkness, he soon arrived at an unknown area.
Darkness completely shrouded the area, and no one could see any sunlight. There were only candlelight and massive light pillars. Moss was observing his surroundings when he heard a clear and lodious voice, “Hello, welco to the Buried City.
“Please show your mbership card. If this is your first visit, you must apply for a mbership card before entering Buried City.”
A pair of beautiful won who looked almost identical appeared before Moss as the voice fell. The two were smiling at him.
“It’s my first ti here,” Moss replied calmly.
The two won said smilingly, “You must be eighteen years old and at least level 25 to beco a mber of Buried City. Please tell your age, and we will test your level in front of the level discrimination stone. Decide on a code na within ten words, and let know when you’ve decided.”
“I’m only sixteen years old,” Moss said.
“You’re too young. Please leave,” the two won said in unison.
Moss did not turn to leave. Instead, he removed the introduction letter he got from Flying Wolf from his pocket and handed it to the two won.
The two won took the paper and glanced at it simultaneously. Shock flashed across their smiling faces. After a mont, the two won slowly said, “You are now a mber of Buried City. Please tell us your code na.”
“Call White Deer Emissary.”
“Sorry, soone has stolen that na. You can choose White Deer Emissary 078 instead.”
“Then register under the codena, Na Stolen,” Moss said indifferently.
The two won were stunned when they heard that.
