Chapter 43: Seeing and hearing in Black Rock City (1)

The movement caused by the corpse monster Centurion earlier was not small. At this moment, there were many human figures flas.h.i.+ng by the windows of Black Rock City, as if they were observing the movement below.

The cultivators from Black Rock City loaded the corpses of the three corpse monster Centurions onto the horse carriages and prepared to pull them into Black Rock City. The Wanderers and wild cultivators who had been chasing after them along the way were chased away. This was because Wanderers were strictly prohibited from approaching within a one-kilometer radius of Black Rock City. Otherwise, they would be killed without mercy!

This time, they were being lenient on them for helping to kill the corpse monster Centurion. Otherwise, the cultivators guarding Black Rock City would have attacked them long ago.

The Wanderers and wild cultivators left resentfully. Tang Zhen endured the pain in his legs and quietly followed behind these cultivators. He walked step by step through the main gate of Black Rock City.

Under the protection of the quantum stealth light curtain, no cultivator in Black Rock City discovered Tang Zhen, who was not a resident of Lou city.

The huge metal gate of Black Rock City was driven by a lever and a gear. Usually, it would only open a small door that could only accommodate two people. This time, because they were using a carriage, the huge metal door was only raised by a third.

After Tang Zhen pa.s.sed through the large metal door, a wave of “ka ka” sounds of huge gears grinding together could be heard. The metal door slowly descended, isolating the wilderness outside.

In the inner s.p.a.ce of the tower, Tang Zhen was standing in a s.p.a.cious pa.s.sage that was several meters high.

On both sides of the pa.s.sage, there was a huge metal Brazier every ten meters. A white oil was piled up in it. After it was lit, it was not only extremely bright but also emitted a faint fragrance.

On the walls of the tunnel were murals. The contents of the murals seemed to be the founding process of Black Rock City and its former glory.

According to the contents of the murals, the first founder of Black Rock City came from a very distant place. He was a n.o.ble child in a giant city.

He had yearned for an adventurer’s life in the wilderness since he was young, and he also hoped to become the city Lord of a Tower City and make his family more prosperous!

So, on the second day after the coming-of-age ceremony, he led his guards and began to travel in the wilderness.

During this period, they had encountered countless dangers and entered countless magical areas. With courage and luck, this n.o.ble child finally gathered all the materials needed to build a city and built Black Rock City far away from home.

Then, there were also scenes of monsters attacking the city, leveling up the city, and fighting with other cities. There were dozens of them.

After Tang Zhen finished looking at these murals, he pondered for a moment before he began to move towards the inner part of Black Rock City.

After walking through a pa.s.sage that was nearly a hundred meters long, a large door appeared in front of Tang Zhen. At the same time, the bustling voices of people were transmitted over. It was a huge open-air square.

Many residents of the city were strolling leisurely in the square. They were dressed neatly and cleanly, and there was no trace of the panic and confusion of Wanderers on their faces. Instead, they looked relaxed and calm.

Tang Zhen walked into a hidden corner. After turning off the quantum stealth light beam, he imitated the form of the Lou city’s residents and easily mixed into the crowd in the square.

The square covered a large area. It was located in the center of Black Rock City and was about 30000 square meters in size. It was surrounded by tall buildings.

Most of the time, the square was covered in shadows, but the sun was right above the square. The sun was warm and comfortable, so it was no wonder that so many residents of the building came out for a walk.

In the middle of the square stood a huge emerald green statue. From its appearance, it should be the founder of Black Rock City, the n.o.ble son from a distant city.

Tang Zhen looked at the statue from afar and discovered that the surface of the statue seemed to have a faint flowing light flas.h.i.+ng. It seemed to be carved from some kind of crystal clear Jade.

Tang Zhen had been in the tower world for so long, but this was the first time he had seen something similar to Jade. He couldn’t help but feel a trace of curiosity.

Tang Zhen, who had a carefree expression, slowly walked to the front of the statue and carefully observed it.

The material used for this statue was completely dark green and looked tender and attractive. It was very similar to the Jade that Tang Zhen had seen in a jewelry store. Moreover, it was the top grade!

Tang Zhen didn’t know much about pearls and jades. He wasn’t sure if this was jadeite or not. After all, there were many types of jadeite that had similar colors. He couldn’t even tell jadeite and nephrite apart.

However, none of these could stop Tang Zhen’s plan to take action!

That’s right. Tang Zhen had taken a fancy to this beautiful jade and was prepared to secretly take a piece off and bring it back to be appraised.

After looking around and seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Tang Zhen took out the purple electric short sword from the storage s.p.a.ce with lightning speed and applied force on the damaged base of the statue.

With strength that far exceeded that of an ordinary person, coupled with the incomparably sharp purple lightning short sword, a bowl-sized jade stone was directly cut off. It was then quickly kept by Tang Zhen into his storage s.p.a.ce.

After he was done with this, Tang Zhen left the statue in the middle of the square as if nothing had happened and began to stroll around.

Tang Zhen discovered that there were shops next to each other on the edge of the square.

These shops operated many items. There were clothes, food, medicinal herbs, and grocery stores. Tang Zhen chose a weapons store and slowly walked in.

The weapon shop was about a few hundred square meters in size and was divided into three floors. The first floor was the hall where one could browse and choose at will, while the second floor required a waist token of a cultivator from Black Rock City to enter. As for the shops on the third floor, only the shop’s distinguished guests could enter.

Compared to the weapons in the Wanderer town’s weapon store, the weapons in the BlackRock city’s weapon store were clearly of a higher grade. Just from their appearance, they looked much better.

The skilled craftsmen of Black Rock City had not only improved the quality of these cold weapons, but they had also spent a lot of effort on the decoration.

For example, the longsword in front of Tang Zhen used techniques such as hollow and embedding. Gemstones and the bones and teeth of some monsters were decorated on the scabbard, making the shape of the longsword extremely beautiful.

The sword’s body was folded, forged, and washed with acid, so that the patterns on the sword’s body were revealed and looked beautiful. Tang Zhen knew that there was a type of Damascus knife in the original world, and the pattern on its surface was very similar to it.

Such an exquisitely crafted sword was naturally expensive. It actually cost thirty level three brain beads, which was equivalent to three thousand level one brain beads.

If the ordinary weapons on the first floor were already so expensive, then the weapons on the second and third floor would probably be even more expensive.

Tang Zhen glanced at the entrance to the second floor. He really wanted to activate the quantum stealth light screen to check it out. However, the two cultivators guarding the second floor made him dispel this thought.

This was because Tang Zhen could sense rank 4 energy fluctuations from the two of them.

He was currently in Black Rock City and could be considered to be in a Dragon’s pool and a Tiger’s Den. Tang Zhen did not want to attract unnecessary trouble.

Tang Zhen stood up and left the weapon shop after sweeping his gaze around once. After which, he walked into a medicinal ingredient shop at the side.
