Chapter 166: Chapter 166
All kinds of nodular jewels, golden skulls, and coins from various eras formed the base,
At the top of the base was something akin to a miniature ancient castle, which could fully open at the front, somewhat similar to the “sedan” in Yi Chen’s homeland when he was alive, ꭆἈΝÔᛒЕʂ
Although the miniature ancient castle had not yet opened,
One could imagine a treasury filled with peculiar treasures and smell a scent of trade from the relief patterns on the walls and the structure of the latticed windows.
Under the throne, were several people with their backs bent at 90 degrees, known as “Back-Bearing People,” their skin completely merged with the base, not knowing how many years they had been carrying this special chair.
One of the Back-Bearing People was clutching the Dead Egg mentioned earlier.
Although this group of seemingly slowly moving Back-Bearing People arrived in front of Yi Chen and Moon Scar in an instant, as if the time it took to move had been “peeled off.”
Just as the two were thinking of stepping back to create some distance,
A voice that penetrated their skulls and struck directly at their brains forcibly stopped their thoughts of retreating. Instinctively, they felt that if they chose to retreat here, they might be killed outright.
Even Moon Scar, as an Open Source Patient, felt the same.
§I never expected to encounter such an interesting item as the ‘Lifeless Egg’ on the surface, only a rare bird with perfect human traits and itself possessing a certain ‘fertility’ attribute. Temporarily bringing the concept of ‘fertility’ from the outside has made it possible to acquire such a fine item at the first egg production.
It cannot be mass-produced, only fortuitously obtained.
Would you be willing to sell it to me, honorable foreign guests?§
As soon as these words were spoken,
The ancient castle expanded horizontally from left and right, directly transforming into a shop adorned with various rare treasures.
A man bloated with endless treasures and corpulent flesh was reclining among the treasures, his eyelids stacked with layers of fat, beneath which golden pupils were fixated on the two before him.
Dressed in a patchwork style outfit that incorporated elements from various eras and civilizations,
Clearly, he was the master of this special shop.
As the shop expanded, his compressed body also spread out, reaching a width of nearly twenty meters and a height of ten meters.
As he opened his mouth to speak,
Teeth crafted from old metals and rare jewels were revealed, with his two prominent golden front teeth standing out the most,
One engraved with “Du,” and the other with “ke,” together forming the word “Duke.”
“I am delighted to meet here an individual with a novel illness and a special human who does not belong to either world. To trade with young people like you justifies the considerable manpower I spent to come to the surface.”
This speech caused Yi Chen’s eyes to widen, as it seemed the shop owner had immediately recognized that he was from another world.
Moon Trace Lorrian sensed an oppressive pathogenic aura from the corpulent merchant.
“You may simply call me Duke, and come trade with me,”
As soon as these words were spoken,
An epic grandeur of music simultaneously resounded in Yi Chen and Moon Trace Lorrian’s ears.
An elegant solo violin act initiated the performance, followed by bell sounds, choral singing, and string glissandos from high to low, seemingly drawing all outsiders into this ancient castle.
It was apparent that the shop owner was deliberately showcasing himself.
