Fortress Thirty-Nine.
Bai Mansheng, visiting a human settlent for the first ti, saw many interesting things in the second layer's comrcial district.
So ornants she had never seen before, and so articles of clothing she had never co across.
Even with her aloof nature, she felt joy and novelty.
This made her no longer pursue Tang Xian's claim of "the mortal world is perilous."
Obviously, the talk about snatching a few out-of-print books from the hands of a calamity-level human was made up as well.
But that's how won are: when she is happy, even if she knows you've lied to her, you could be granted amnesty. Conversely, she could also swiftly sentence you to death.
Tang Xian was lucky.
For now, the second layer of the Pyramid, although not as large in area as Baichuan City, was bustling with nurous shops.
The first thing Tang Xian did was to take Bai Mansheng to the makeup counters in the mall.
Not just for Bai Mansheng, but also for Li Xiaoyu, Qing JiuYu, Qiao Shanshan, Dong Ran, and even for Tang Suoye – children of the sa age as Ling Yi.
Now that he had Baichuan City, Tang Xian viewed the Pyramid much more pleasantly.
It was like looking at a super-large warehouse.
Especially in the Pyramid, where wealth rested in minerals, Tang Xian couldn't say exactly how wealthy he was, but at least he could shop without looking at prices before placing liked items into the shopping cart.
Studies have shown that in the process of becoming wealthy from poverty, the happiness derived from consumption is more intense than when one reaches the wealth they aspire to.
Tang Xian was like that.
And Bai Mansheng, due to her first impression, also felt very happy.
Because Tang Xian had described these items as very expensive.
For example, the facial cleanser said to be worth a whole city, and "The Legend of the White Snake," said to be priceless.
Though these lies had been exposed, Bai Mansheng still carried so inertia in her thinking that everything here was of high value.
Tang Xian also found that, whether it was a flirtatious woman or a cold one, giving gifts was a universal thod to boost her favorability.
Bai Mansheng's favorability towards Tang Xian had returned to a rating of "deep affection."
The sales associates also loved custors like Tang Xian the most.
Though he was dressed as Tang Jikede, a limping old gentleman, the disguise clearly suggested nobility.
A man in his fifties or sixties, still shopping with a girl of about twenty.
The salespeople had seen such scenarios often.
Just they had never seen one as beautiful as Bai Mansheng.
Bai Mansheng displayed impressive spending power.
Carrying bags full of makeup, clothes, and various books and disks, Bai Mansheng thought the world of humans was truly wonderful.
Though she didn't realize that all this beauty was bought with money.
Luckily, Tang Xian really was wealthy.
Compared to Bai Mansheng, Tang Feiji was much easier to please.
Though the mall staff, responsible for custor service, had no idea why a man of such a handso and robust appearance was wandering around in the toy section.
After shopping, Tang Xian arranged accommodations for Bai Mansheng and Tang Feiji.
Since the snake and the dragon couldn't stand each other, Tang Xian arranged for two separate rooms.
After handling all these arrangents, Tang Jikede, the old gentleman, slowly made his way to the fourth floor, and Bai Mansheng insisted on following him, so Tang Xian didn't refuse.
The fruit of the Zudun Sacred Tree could bring about evolution.
Having only one before, Tang Xian dared not use it carelessly. But he had been thinking about it, and after more than a month had passed, Tang Xian wanted to see how things were progressing.
Standing at the entrance to the tier, Tang Xian frowned at the poster at the gateway.
As the only fortress that had opened up to the eighth tier and the only one with the knowledge to manufacture the Judgent Knights, Level Thirty-Nine certainly planned to make a large number of them.
What Tang Xian hadn't expected was to see such an advertisent here.
It was like the Arican army recruitnt ads in the middle of the 20th century.
The exaggerated poster depicted the form of a Judgent Knight.
After an artistic styling, the Judgent Knight really did have a ch-like aesthetic.
Just as n over a thousand years ago loved Gundam; the girls never understood, thinking only children liked those toys.
But chs have always been a part of n's romanticism, and even at thirty or forty years old, many still collected Gundam.
The Judgent Knight, clad in bronze armor, had a sort of softened ch appeal.
The poster even carried the following line:
— "Talents determine our destiny, but can destiny truly not be changed? Join us and beco a Judgent Knight, change your own fate! You will gain greater strength, higher honor, and join the upper echelons!"
Tang Xian didn't stand there for long; the old gentleman he was portraying clearly wasn't soone overly curious.
He silently proceeded to the fourth level, his mind filled with so information about the Crystal Crane.
The Orderers were chanical beings made of life itself.
If what Crystal Crane said was true, then this almost confird the materials used to make the Judgent Knights.
Song Que had also investigated before, and it seed clear that he linked the mass production of Judgent Knights with the disappearance of the lower-tier personnel.
Tang Xian clenched his fist. All his good mood evaporated after seeing the poster.
What a despicable lie!
The process of capturing a large number of lower-tier people to make Judgent Knights had caught the attention of many.
More and more forces began investigating where these people went.
To resolve these troubles, Li Wanye thought of an even more toxic thod.
After all, no one knew how the Judgent Knights were made.
