Right when Li Yi had walked far away. Only then did the merchant come back to his senses and hurriedly shouted for him.
“Carefree Dream, wait a moment, I… I have something to discuss with you. This is very important!!”
Little Merchant ran in front of him and rubbed his hands together. It was as if he had something to discuss, but he was too embarrassed to open his mouth. His somewhat shy appearance was simply unbearable.
A man in his thirties was acting bashful here. When the surrounding players saw him, they shook their heads repeatedly and kept a distance from him with disgusting expressions on their faces.
Li Yi took a few steps back. Then, he frowned and asked, “What’s wrong? Do you regret the contract? If you don’t want to make a deal, then tear up the contract and return the items to me!”
“Regret? Even if you beat me to death now, I won’t regret it! I… I just spent all my gold coins. Can I use some of yours first? Even five gold coins would be enough.” Little Merchant timidly spoke. In his perspective, he had taken a huge advantage of Carefree Dream. Now, he was even reaching out to ask for gold coins. This was definitely a shameful act.
However, at this moment, he was really short of money. He had only obtained this S-grade pharmaceutical talent for more than a day before he finally understood how to use this thing. Now, he did not even have the start-up funds to begin his business.
Li Yi glanced at his backpack and said, “I can give you seven gold coins. You’ll have to think of other ways yourself!!”
“That’s more or less enough! Now that everyone’s levels have risen, the Health and Mana Potions are selling very well. Now that I have gold coins to make the Health and Mana Potions. I should increase the profits!
“Moreover, I have doubled the number of potions as compared to last time. In the aspect of pharmaceuticals, I reckon that no one can compare to me. When that time comes, I’ll definitely become rich.”
Little Merchant said with a smug expression. He really deserved a beating.
“Don’t be too cocky when you do things. Keep a low profile. Don’t make it so that you won’t be able to come online in the future. That would be bad!!”
Li Yi saw the smug expression on this fellow’s face, but he still spoke up to remind him. After all, money was a thing that made people go crazy over it!!
In his previous life, there was someone who was an extremely profitable sub-class. A woman found out his real name and address and then kidnapped him. His life and death had been controlled by this psycho.
“Don’t worry! The people outside will never know where I live. The appearance and voice of my character in the game is all different, you will never know!!
“If you want to get the address from me, even if it’s you, I won’t tell you. Alright, I’m leaving, it’s time to earn some money!” Little Merchant waved his hand and walked away.
Indeed, no one knew this guy’s address in Li Yi’s previous life. Even if the God’s invaded the real world, Little Merchant still survived until the end. It was unnecessary to worry about such things for him.
…
Right as Li Yi was about to leave, he saw his friend list ring.
[Carefree Dream, I don’t know if you’re busy now. There’s something I need help with and I specifically need your help with it. This should be something only you can do. I can pay you the reward, it’ll be anything you want!] It was a message sent by Sun Conqueror.
From the way the Scorching Sun Guild killed the special boss just now, they currently had the most benefits. In this Novice Village, they could be said to be number one in terms of strength. They could even defeat some low-level black-iron bosses.
This was a little suspicious. Was there anything that they could not do in this tiny Novice Village?
[Tell me what it is first. Is there anything that you guys can’t do in the Novice Village?] Li Yi immediately asked.
[Carefree Dream. I’m ashamed to say this, but our guild members discovered a map. The monsters inside have attack powers that are too high. Even our strongest player can’t handle the monsters inside. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have troubled you like this,]
Sun Conqueror quickly replied.
The guild members could not handle the monsters. The monsters had at least 400 attack power. If the monsters in the Novice Village really had such high attack power, then there was only one reason.
It was a reason that Li Yi was not willing to think about at this moment. After all, his current strength was still very weak. It was impossible for him to fight against these things. Perhaps something unexpected had happened in this life?
These things had appeared so early. He did not know if it had anything to do with his SSS-grade talent, Blood Devour!
If that was really the case, then the situation would be a little bad. This matter could turn big or small. It might even allow Divine Revelation to wake up those sleeping gods in advance.
He knew he was not ready, Li Yi immediately asked.
[Where is this map? Tell me clearly about the situation and the monsters in it, don’t miss out on a single thing.]
Without a hint of doubt, Sun Conqueror felt that something was not right from the other end. However, he could not think of anything going wrong, so he still immediately sent out a few pictures of what he saw.
[That map is not filled with elite monsters. The game’s website did not introduce them either. The names of the monsters all have the word ‘Demonized’ in the suffix! Just like the Demonized Commander from last time, it’s very strange!] Sun Conqueror typed.
The information was accompanied by some pictures for Li Yi to refer to. Looking from the inside, the environment was a little dim. It seemed to be a cave that went straight to the depths of a deeper underground cave.
There was a faint black aura around the cave. It was similar to that of the Demonized Commander who was killed last time. However, the aura of this place was even denser, it was super pitch-black, like ink!
After looking at the pictures, Li Yi did not feel so lucky anymore. ‘So it’s really that thing. I’m very familiar with it, so I can’t be wrong.’ He thought to himself as he replied Sun Conqueror.
[Give me the coordinates, I’ll be there right away!!] Li Yi wrote.
[Okay, the coordinates are (****, ****) we’ll wait for you here,] Sun Conqueror quickly replied.
Li Yi hastily opened the map and found the coordinates. Then, he immediately headed in that direction.
The place that they had encountered was the demonized land. It was one of the places within the Divine Revelation game that had been infected by traces of dark aura.
Under normal circumstances, the attributes of the monsters in the demonized land would be greatly enhanced. Their HP and attack would be doubled. There were also some places where there were extremely dangerous items, tools, or sealed creatures.
When the Gods in the previous life had gradually descended, the players who had been defending the place were not immediately defeated. It was all because of this place that the gods had spent most of their energy. This place was known as the Demonic Domain.
However, this Demonic Domain appeared a little too early. It would only appear sporadically in the middle of the game at the very least.
Moreover, there was no news about who discovered the Demonic Domain in the Novice Village in his previous life.
It seemed that his rebirth had a butterfly effect in this game world. It had pushed up the original plot by a lot!
However, wasn’t this more interesting? To experience it all over again without changing anything, anyone would be a little tired of it, right?
