Chapter 227: Law of Space
Zhang Mu directly pulled Yuan Rui inside. He decided to go into the Era Store first to complete the transaction, and then Yuan Rui could take over. This way, he could test the authenticity of this Era Store for Yuan Rui first.
Because this Era Store in Shan Xi City indeed seed very mysterious, he rembered that when he ca to Shan Xi City in his later life, normal transactions were just like that. At that ti, the streets near the Era Store had all been cleared out.
Zhang Mu bravely stepped into the street and looked towards the place that made the Era rchant Ring tremble in the distance.
Suddenly, as soon as Zhang Mu stepped on the cobblestones beneath his feet, he noticed the whole space started changing instantly, spinning around and making him dizzy.
Wait, isn’t this reaction supposed to happen only when entering the Era Store? Zhang Mu had just approached this street and was nowhere near the location of Era Store. Why is this happening now?
To his even greater surprise, he found himself holding Yuan Rui’s hand. This ant that Yuan Rui had been transported along with him to the interior of the Era Store.
How could this be possible? The trading order at Era Store strictly followed a numbering system, showing their level of importance for Era Sub-rchants and resource allocation.
By the ti Zhang Mu regained his senses, he found himself in a magnificent palace.
Looking at the exquisite carvings on the ceiling, Zhang Mu felt as if he had stepped into the most luxurious royal palace. Yuan Rui, wide-eyed beside him, seed srized by the spectacular sight.
Just then, a sharp voice sounded in front of Zhang Mu, “First ti seeing Era Sub-rchants from other cities, hmm, not bad. One second-rank, one peak first-rank.”
Can they easily assess their own strength like this?
Just as Zhang Mu was admiring the power of this Era rchant, the ground in front of him suddenly sank down, revealing a huge dragon throne that lazily accommodated a very obese figure.
No, the word “obese” couldn’t even describe him properly. The layers of fat on his belly were hanging down to the ground, his facial features were barely visible, and one of his arms exposed was as thick as Zhang Mu’s thigh, watching Zhang Mu and Yuan Rui with great interest in the middle of the hall.
This was Zhang Mu’s first ti seeing the Shan Xi City Era rchant, and he was surprised by the vast difference compared to other Era rchants he had encountered before. Trying to compare him to his elegant boss or the authoritative Xi’an Era Sub-rchant, Zhang Mu couldn’t find a precise word to describe this new encounter.
Looking at the decorations above his head now exuding a nouveau-riche scent, all the previous elegance seed to have vanished and been completely ruined by this fat man in front of him.
Of course, he couldn’t say that out loud, so he politely asked, “May I ask for your title?”
“No. 29,” lazily replied the fat man next to Zhang Mu.
What? Ranked higher than 37? Although Zhang Mu knew this ranking might not necessarily represent true power, he had a feeling that there was a reason behind it.
The fat man himself didn’t pay much attention to Zhang Mu and the others. Even the first Era Sub-rchants from the outer city who arrived here weren’t important in his eyes. It wasn’t because the trial space restricted their movents; it was because they wouldn’t think of using the natives to collect Spiritual Essence from different places on their behalf.
However, when the fat man’s eyes landed on the Era rchant Ring on Zhang Mu’s hand, his expression turned serious. He then slowly straightened his body effortlessly, despite his obesity.
“No. 001? The ace Era Sub-rchant of No. 37?”
Looking at the intense gaze of No. 29, Zhang Mu t his eyes and replied calmly, “I don’t know about any ace, but when it cos to No. 001, that’s definitely .”
The serious expression on No. 29’s face suddenly relaxed, his eyes narrowing with a smile hidden in the fat on his face, and he chuckled, “We Era rchants do communicate among ourselves, but the exact numbers weren’t shared by that old fox. However, once the first quarterly report is out, we’ll know. Judging by his expression, you must have earned him quite a lot of gold leaf.”
It seems that No. 37 didn’t reveal the true numbers, or else it would have surely scared them.
This No. 29 probably assus that Zhang Mu has earned around twenty or thirty gold leaf, not realizing that even the extra bits Zhang Mu earned surpass that.
Of course, Zhang Mu didn’t give anything away and asked directly, “No. 29, what’s happening outside? Why can humans live near the Era Store, why did we walk in without being close to the Era Store’s range, and why did we enter simultaneously? I thought only one person could enter the Era Store at a ti.”
“Surprised that you observed so closely. I’m just experinting with sothing. Near my Era Store, the space entered by Era Sub-rchants and regular folks is different, independent yet intertwined. As for the two of you entering together, you’re actually in two overlapping yet separate spaces.”
What? Yuan Rui and myself are not in the sa space right now? But I can clearly touch her, she’s right beside !
“You wouldn’t understand, it involves a certain law, about space.”
This sentence stirred up a storm in Zhang Mu’s heart.
Another rule?
Or is it a spatial rule?
And this spatial rule, in the hands of No.29, is being utilized in such a way!
