A vast space.
There’s no concept of a first floor or second floor, just an enormous expanse of space.
It’s like...
Entering a large mansion that hasn’t been decorated or divided into floors.
Looking around, you can see the boundaries of the World Tree’s internal space, and looking up, you can see its ceiling.
And this space is astonishingly bright.
And...
Somehow... "lively."
Right now, Xu Xin and the others are roughly in the center of this World Tree’s internal space.
And all around them, as far as the eye can see, are hundreds and thousands of alien invaders.
Bodies as black as ink, countless eyes that stir a feeling of anchored dread, and forms in various bizarre shapes.
Some had the Slime type they’ve seen before, others had bodies so uneven it looked like they were covered in pustules.
There were also those covered entirely in writhing tentacles, each tip of these tentacles with a swaying eye.
...It’s like a mass of black slime with giant snail eyes all over it.
This is simply the most unacceptable appearance, making one want to sharply inhale a breath of cold air.
But the four of them held back.
Because sharply inhaling might be noticed.
They’ve walked right into the lion’s den...
Xu Xin looked at the little guy peeking out with two eyes from Lou Fei’Er’s arms, wishing he could grab its tail and pull it up fiercely.
What kind of place has it brought them to!
If they were in various corridors or rooms, they could at least hide around.
In this open space, surrounded on all sides by such terrifying alien invaders...
This is simply a mental barrage!
Li Wenxi beside him was already clutching his arm, her body trembling a bit.
Not just her, even Xu Xin felt his own body trembling a little.
Surrounded on all sides by thousands of terrifying monsters that cause physical disfort, and each of these monsters is likely very strong; even a few would be hard for them to handle.
Who wouldn’t be scared in this situation!
Lou Fei’Er, leading the way, was also looking helplessly at Xu Xin.
There’s no more "leading" to be done when surrounded by alien invaders.
Fortunately, these alien invaders hadn’t noticed them.
Not many of those dense eyes were focused on them.
Xu Xin calmed his racing heart, adjusted his mindset, and began to carefully observe the surroundings.
They weren’t too close, with the nearest being fifty or sixty meters away.
But there were just so many of them.
"Hmm...?"
Xu Xin noticed some of the alien invaders had a pile of objects in front of them.
And some alien invaders were weaving through them.
Xu Xin was struck by a sense of déjà vu.
This is...
...a market?
An alien invader market?
Upon further observation, he realized it was indeed so.
Many alien invaders had a mat of some unknown material spread out before them, filled with odd items.
Some would extend a tentacle with a few eyes from their pitch-black bodies, "picking up" items to closely examine with the many eyes on their bodies.
...Isn’t this a market!
Xu Xin also noticed that above this "market," countless small jellyfish-like robots were flying and weaving, observing the "market" below.
Oh... So these little jellyfish didn’t have their own special pathways; the space is just so vast they can fly freely!
Xu Xin looked around again, his attention caught by the items on those mats.
He activated the identification mode.
Most of the items didn’t even emit any glow, potentially valueless or too rare, not in his identification database.
But a small portion...
Exuded a golden glow!
No blue, no purple.
Anything with color was gleaming gold!
Xu Xin’s heart skipped a beat.
All treasures!
Could this place... be the alien invaders’ "antique market"?
Wait...
Xu Xin glanced at the little guy already restless in Lou Fei’Er’s arms.
Could the items Xu Xin needed be in this "market"?
Isn’t this place... a bit too lively?
Lively enough to make one’s scalp tingle...
They... have to enter this crowd of alien invaders to browse their "market"?
Heh...
