In a l.u.s.t verdant forest where many trees are scattered all over the place a wide clearing in the middle is set as a stage for the final round . Many thought that they would appear in this place and directly confront the green dragon . However, what they didn"t expect is that they would come out from a back alley of a town .

The Green Town

s.h.i.+n Jiao found himself in a small town bustling with people wearing normal modern clothes . But the thing about the town is that most vehicles in this place are powered by… steam .

Steam-powered cars, steam-powered trains, steam-powered buses, and steam-powered everything .

It felt like they have just reached a modern world where steam is the main source of power .

The people in this place have rifles and guns which also resembles that from modern earth, and some flying s.h.i.+ps without the sails .

"This location is great . I wonder where this place in the game is . " A Caucasian player asked as he turns his gaze all over the place .

"This is in the northern part of my server . But we cannot access this area yet because of that great dark chasm . " A bulky man said while pointing to the mountainous area where there is a dark fog .

"That place has tons of powerful beast . My friend once tried to enter it and got killed in just a few minutes . "

"Oh, Northern Europe, right?"

"Yes, but I guess you guys from the North and South American servers would find it hard to travel because of the endless sea . But some Asians have already visited out server . "

"d.a.m.n it, if only the teleport towers are functional already that would be great . "

"Well, it would if there are players who have reached the level 60"s or so…"

"Yeah, we"ll just have to wait then . "

"Hey, look over there! They are selling black weapons…"

"Woah! This is a very tough weapon, right? I want one… How much… oh, wow . The price is a bit weird . "

"Haha… In this place, money is nothing . They want something else… mana gemstones . "

"Well, we only have 50 of those right? What can we buy with just 50?"

"Look there, they can exchange gold with mana gemstones… What the h.e.l.l, this is daylight robbery, 1 mana gemstone is equal to 1,000 gold? What the h.e.l.l is that?"

As the players roam around the town, they discovered a lot of things . Those from the European servers became excited as the town is close to the boundary of their server . However, their problem is how to cross the dark chasm .

And so they decided to make the most out of the town and bought some things they needed .

s.h.i.+n Jiao, on the other hand, asked more information especially about the black market of the town . And found a way to trade some of his goods .

In a hidden corner of the town, a small tavern exists inconspicuously . The tavern looks old and tattered and is guarded by a few powerful NPCs .

As s.h.i.+n Jiao walks inside, he saw many people already inside and fierce bidding is happening . He knew that it is not a random thing in the game because the game itself has its own ecosystem and is not affected by any random command from the system . This means that everything is lifelike, even the A . I . "s are like normal human beings .

Many players have already discovered this, that"s why those who dared to be frivolous in the real world have suffered a lot in the game .

As s.h.i.+n Jiao observes he saw the trade happening and immediately decided to sell a few of his crafted items . Like for example one of his revolvers and 100 bullets .

When he showed it to the stand, everyone was in awe . And his trade condition is only mana gemstones .

It didn"t take long for the people to begin trading . From 500 mana gemstones, the price raises up to 10,000 in just a blink of an eye . Then suddenly a man stood up from the corner, he is wearing a military uniform and walks towards the revolver in the stand .

"I will but it for 50,000 gemstones, what do you say young man?" he said with a smile while looking at s.h.i.+n Jiao .

Although 50,000 gemstones are a bit low, s.h.i.+n Jiao could have a favorable impression of a military officer NPC in the area . He might be able to use this chip in the future, so he nodded his head in agreement .

The trade was successful and s.h.i.+n Jiao walks out of the dilapidated tavern .

When he got out, a shadow from the corner silently followed him .

s.h.i.+n Jiao walks towards an alley and carefully hid the sack full of gemstones in his bag .

"Are you going to reveal yourself or I will have to drag you out, your choice . " s.h.i.+n Jiao suddenly said .

He already knew that there is someone following him . Although he is not using his spiritual sense always, every now and then he would spread it out . With this, he already knew that someone is following him .

"Hehe… I can"t believe that a player has the ability to see and notice me… But the question is can you catch me?" suddenly from within the shadows a woman wearing a tight fit black outfit which insinuated the s.e.xiness of her body has revealed herself from behind s.h.i.+n Jiao .

When the woman showed herself, s.h.i.+n Jiao was a bit stunned . This is because he found the woman"s look very familiar . It was actually one of the mutants he encountered in China, s.h.i.+mmer .

It was just a quick reaction and s.h.i.+n Jiao immediately recovered his expression and looks at the woman carefully . She could not recognize him because s.h.i.+n Jiao is wearing a mask when fighting her group .

"Hey, I didn"t mean any harm . But if you are willing to exchange with me a revolver, I would be glad to trade it with anything I have . " She immediately offered .

Although she is one of the players who have entered the finals along with the 3 women with her, she is not confident to defeat the player in front of her . She knew by instinct that the player named "s.h.i.+n" is someone she could not deal with alone .

But trading would also be good .

"Why would I do that?" s.h.i.+n Jiao raised his brow .

"Well… this beauty is just trying to ask you for a favor, aren"t you going to be a gentleman?" s.h.i.+mmer said coquettishly .

"Haha… I"m not that stupid . I didn"t want to reveal to all about these weapons, so why would I trade it with you . " s.h.i.+n Jiao said as he immediately turns around to leave .

"Wait! I… I promise not to tell anyone about it . Plus… I… I have this item that can conceal anything that you equip . I have gotten this item because I noticed that there are players that can disarm their opponents . With this cloaking item, you can equip the guns without even other players noticing it . This is my trade . " She quickly said .

s.h.i.+mmer has already encountered some players who can disarm others . Although it requires a lot of tricks, once you are disarmed you will lose your weapon . Hence she researched and found an item called Concealment crystal .

Concealment crystal is a rare crystal that can only be mined in snowy mountainous regions . It is hard to detect and find hence it can be considered as a rare item in the game .

"I only have three of those… So I"m willing to trade one for a revolver . " s.h.i.+mmer said while biting her lips .

s.h.i.+n Jiao looks at her head and saw her in-game name… "s.h.i.+mmer" .

"She is using her mutant name as her in-game name? Hmm… I"m guessing that those two sisters of hers would have the same name as their mutant names . " s.h.i.+n Jiao thought .

Having a concealment crystal would not be bad, so s.h.i.+n Jiao though for a while and agrees with the trade, however, he still asked for a couple of ores for some bullets .

The two traded and left towards the gathering place of the whole team the village square .

When they arrived there was a group of people already in the area and are showing the things they were able to get . Some have bought small weapons and others some potions . The quality of the goods in this town is way above those they can get from ordinary places in their servers, so they grab this opportunity to get something in this place .

s.h.i.+n Jiao didn"t linger and quickly went to a store that sells those raw black ores . And there he found the price is good, 1 piece is equaled to 10 mana gemstones . So s.h.i.+n Jiao immediately bought as many as he could and some other rare ores beside the black ore .

After that, he walks out of the shop .

When he came back to his group, he saw "Rembrandt" looking at him in disdain and with malice .

To provoke the guy, s.h.i.+n Jiao sneered at him and walks away . He jumps towards a one-story building and sat on its ledge . Then from behind him, s.h.i.+mmer appears .

"So you also don"t like that guy," she muttered as she also sat next to s.h.i.+n Jiao .

"What the heck? Why is this woman suddenly close to me?" s.h.i.+n Jiao thought as he didn"t expect s.h.i.+mmer to sit next to him .

"I was a.s.signed to Charlie group and my two sisters are also with me… Our leader thinks that that person is not trustworthy, so you have to be careful . " She warned .

"Why are you doing this?" s.h.i.+n Jiao asked with suspicion .

"Sigh, nothing… I just find you a bit mysterious, comfortable, and very pleasing to be with . Hihi…" she said while looking at s.h.i.+n Jiao"s face with a blush .

Upon seeing this, he immediately knew what she means .
