Chapter 3697: Returning to the forgotten shop (1)
There were countless cultivators in the outer area of the milles family’s ancestral land, and the scale was far greater than before the incident.
The 27th ring was in a mess, but the milles family’s ancestral land was still the same.
The wizard Legion in charge of defense did not dare to leave this place, and they were more alert than before.
They were afraid that under such circ.u.mstances, the milles family would take advantage of the chaos to break out and create more chaos at the 27th ring.
However, he did not know that if the milles family really wanted to cause trouble, they would not have waited until now.
Furthermore, the real members of the milles family had already arrived at the world of loucheng, and the cultivators who were confronting them were actually cultivators of loucheng.
The purpose of Lou Cheng’s cultivators was not to fight with the wizard Legion. They were only responsible for guarding the teleportation array.
If no Wizards broke in, the war would not happen, so there was no need for the wizard Legion to defend.
From the beginning to the end, Lou Cheng didn’t even put the wizard Army in his eyes. They were just a group of chickens and dogs.
The Wizards in the Army did not know that the source of the change in the 27th circle was actually in the milles family’s ancestral land.
The ordinary wizard Army did not know about this, and they were still on guard. They did not even have the time to help when their Wizard Towers were in danger.
The higher-ups of the wizard Army had received an order from the ring Lord. No matter what happened, the Wizards were not allowed to retreat.
Instead of dispersing their forces to rescue the wizard Tower and being swallowed by the turbulence of the 27th ring, it was better to preserve their forces in case of accidents.
As long as the wizard Army was still there, it could become a trump card in the ring Lord’s hands to deal with all kinds of dangers.
No matter how the wizard Tower asked for help or protested, the wizard Legion did not respond at all.
Even if the Wizards from the Legion wanted to leave, they would not be allowed to do so.
In front of the enemy, military orders were like mountains. How could he just leave?
Faced with the Magus tower’s request for help, the Army of Magi were extremely anxious, but they could do nothing about it.
Although the ring district’s higher-ups did it for their own benefit, they had also saved the lives of the Army’s Wizards. If they were allowed to return to their respective Wizard Towers, they would have been killed by now.
The situation in the outside world was indeed extremely chaotic, and the fierce fighting did not stop for a moment.
This area, which was originally the most dangerous area, had now become a peaceful place without any Wars.
Such a situation really made people a little speechless. As expected, the world was ever-changing, and the cultivation world was the same.
Other than the Magus Army that was stationed here permanently, there were also many official and secret Magi present. They were all focused on training and did not partic.i.p.ate in the chaos.
They didn’t care about their status and only focused on cultivation.
This was actually a good thing. Otherwise, at least half of the Magi here would have turned into bones.
In fact, this was in nature. Magi who faced opportunities would never easily give up.
In the forest, a figure appeared out of thin air, but the surrounding Magi did not notice.
They were engrossed in their cultivation and paid no attention to the matters of the outside world.
However, even if they were to raise their vigilance and pay attention to the wind and gra.s.s in the surroundings, it was absolutely impossible for them to discover Tang Zhen’s existence.
Not to mention them, even the primogenitor star in the sky could not discover Tang Zhen at all.
After pa.s.sing through the wizard camp, Tang Zhen walked all the way and soon arrived in front of a wooden house.
Some of the Magi who came and went would enter, while others would ignore them.
No one knew what kind of secret was hidden in this wooden house.
In fact, many Wizards had entered this room before, but they had completely forgotten about it after leaving.
This was a special room that didn’t need to be remembered by anyone.
Tang Zhen pushed open the door and entered. He found that the shop was very lively as the Wizards were looking for the items they needed.
Almost every wizard could find what they wanted in this special shop.
As for whether or not he could afford it, that was another matter.
When Tang Zhen entered, he saw a Magus signing a contract in an attempt to exchange for a treasure he had been searching for a long time.
Without enough funds to carry out the transaction, they could only sign such a contract and slowly pay off the debt in the future.
If he couldn’t do it, there would naturally be punishment.
Magi who had signed a contract should never think of reneging on their debt, as they would have to pay a terrible price.
It wasn’t impossible for him to lose his life.
Tang Zhen could not help but secretly shake his head when he saw the excited face of the Magus. This fellow was likely completely unaware. In fact, he had already fallen into a trap.
Of course, he wasn’t alone. In the past, there should have been many people like him who had fallen into the trap of this shop.
Tang Zhen definitely wouldn’t care about such a thing. Perhaps this was the way of running a store.
A shop like this was no longer just doing business, but a nomological Dao that was always in operation.
There was a reason for its existence, so there was no need to question it.
They walked through the shop and came to the strange wooden door. The monster was still in charge of guarding it.
The monster immediately extended its tongue after seeing Tang Zhen. It had a fawning expression on its face.
It naturally remembered Tang Zhen and the benefits it had obtained the last time.
“You little fellow, it’s indeed a bit of overkill to use you as a guard.”
As Tang Zhen spoke, he rubbed the monster’s big head and gently patted it twice.
The monster’s eyes widened, and its chubby tongue drooped down the corner of its mouth, as if its mind was wandering.
It seemed to be reminiscing about something, and its face was filled with an intoxicated look. If it wasn’t for the limitations of the environment, the monster would have jumped up directly.
It turned out that Tang Zhen’s casual clap had imparted the truth of the great Dao as well as his precious cultivation experience.
To the monster, Tang Zhen’s teaching was equivalent to being enlightened, and it could give it the possibility of advancing further.
The monster was in a state of enlightenment and had no way to extricate itself, so it was too lazy to care about the job of guarding the door.
Tang Zhen laughed softly before directly pushing the door open and entering.
It was still the same vast starry sky. The one-eyed shop owner was holding a lantern and wandering between the stars.
Just like a farmer sowing seeds on the land or a one-eyed shop owner herding the stars, he also had to diligently clean up.
One could only reap one’s rewards with one’s hard work, and even a lazy person would ultimately gain nothing.
Although he was a G.o.d King level expert, the one-eyed shop owner was still very hardworking. He was plowing and harvesting every moment.
Perhaps it was because of this sacrifice that the unknown one-eyed shop owner had such incredible strength.
For example, Tang Zhen’s request this time had been completed quite well. The chaos in the twenty-seventh ring had developed to an uncontrollable degree.
Unless the primogenitor star made a move, or the other ring zones worked together to suppress the 27th ring.
Otherwise, this turmoil would not have been so easily quelled.
However, if it really came to that, the Magus world would also be affected, and might even fall into turmoil.
The one-eyed shopkeeper’s task had been completed by half, but the number of Wizard Towers destroyed did not meet the requirements.
Looking at the current situation, it would not take long.
The one-eyed shop owner wasn’t surprised to see Tang Zhen.
There was a deal between the two sides, so Tang Zhen’s visit was very normal. Clearly, he also had something to discuss.
He just didn’t know if Tang Zhen’s arrival this time around would be able to bring about a deal that would move people’s hearts.
