Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month

Chapter 269 The gaze of the God of Destiny?

Recalling it carefully, Chen Ye remembered that he was in the sea of ​​​​spiritual world and acquired the characteristics of [Helmsman of Destiny].

Now that I think about it... was it the characteristic of [Helmsman of Destiny] that caused me to fall into the whirlpool, or was it because I had already chosen to enter the whirlpool and thus unlocked this characteristic...

It’s hard to know anymore.

But at this moment, Chen Ye realized that this matter might have the shadow of "fate" behind it, and couldn't help but tremble.

Could it be that I am already being watched by the divine authority of ‘destiny’?

"call!"

Chen Ye took a deep breath, his eyes became more focused than ever before, he thought quickly, and said to himself:

"Currently, what this group of thugs are doing is likely to be related to the entire City of Destiny."

"Are they going to do something similar to the Dragon God Sacrifice again?"

"Or maybe... there is another purpose..."

"This transaction involves a huge amount of money. No matter how you look at it, you have to intervene."

Firstly, the amount of transactions this time is extremely high, which will be of great help to the sprint list this month;

Secondly, if this transaction involves a war over the authority of the gods, it is likely to have a huge impact on the entire City of Destiny.

From Chen Ye's perspective, what Feng Lucius has done is, for the time being, like a villain and will pose a threat to the survival of all players.

If the opponent's plan is allowed to succeed, then a large area of ​​living space will be compressed.

All players, including yourself, will be affected.

The surrounding environment will also change drastically as a result.

If you think about it carefully, the old woman selling chestnuts, the Lin family and other aboriginal people chose to move away, as well as the closure of Yongan Market, all have a lot to do with the pollution incident.

When the surrounding environment changes, it means that your own living environment will be affected, which will bring disadvantages.

In the playing rules of Strange Era, if you want to obtain a safer environment, the stability of the environment and surrounding context is extremely important.

Putting all this aside, I also need to know what deeper existence is hidden behind this transaction? Will it affect your own survival? What kind of crisis lurks?

Thinking of this, Chen Ye's eyes moved slightly and asked the last question——

"Where will the transaction take place?"

The centaur's eyes swayed like water waves for a moment, and he replied dully:

"The location of the transaction...I don't know...but the Lord has ordered that we need to conduct training in the lightless land numbered 77, and then we need to act as bodyguards to escort the goods to the mob headquarters."

"The lightless land of No. 77..."

This code was actually formulated by the mob themselves.

It seems……

It seems that the thugs have a pretty deep understanding of the underground world!

Even the number of the Lightless Land has reached seventy-seven...

This shows that they know at least hundreds of lightless places.

Chen Ye chose the most direct method and directly absorbed the memories of the people.

The next second...

Scenes of the people's activities in the underground world, and sentences when talking to other gang members, appeared in Chen Ye's field of vision like a fleeting glimpse, thus outlining the deeper contours of the underground world, and knowing each and every lack of light. The number of the place, the corresponding route, and many shortcuts hidden in caves and cliffs.

After obtaining this information, Chen Ye's lips curled up slightly, and he already had an idea in his mind.

He exited the Centaur's conscious space.

Suddenly, the gray fog dissipated, and the surrounding space was shattered like a dream of mirror flowers.

The centaur suddenly opened his eyes, looked around dimly, and found that he was still standing in front of the dressing table, combing the mane that exploded around his scarf.

However, his expression completely lost the focus and piety of the past. Instead, he seemed to have just woken up from a fright. There was a look of fear and lingering fear on his face. He was holding a comb and his arm covered with dark patterned scales was hanging on the Mid-air, trembling slightly.

It looked around anxiously, and suddenly its brain throbbed, as if it had forgotten something very important.

Adhering to its always vigilant behavior, the centaur realized that something was not right around it. It walked out of the door, its eyes fell on the two muscular [Gluttons], and asked in a deep voice:

"What happened just now?"

The two [Gluttons] looked at each other and shook their heads slightly uneasily:

"No……"

Their minds were tense, wondering if something had happened and that they might have neglected their duties?

According to the terms of the contract, if they fail to perform tasks in accordance with the contract, the other party has the right to revoke the required amount of employment.

Doesn't it mean that you have to work for the other party for seven days in vain, and stand on the post for seven days in vain?

The centaur looked at [Glutton] suspiciously for a few times, then walked around the area to confirm that there was no danger. Then his expression gradually relaxed and he continued to return to the mirror on the dressing table to comb his mane.

…………

Leaving the stone road paved with bluestones, under the crimson moonlight, Chen Ye lowered his head, meditating, and using the characteristics of [Wanderer's Boots], he took a ten-meter step, and his figure flickered on the pedestrian street.

"Yongan Market closed, and the underground market became popular..."

"Does this mean that the authority of gods affects the structure of this world on certain occasions?"

Based on the original setting of Strange Era, the impact of the battle for divine authority is a bit like a relationship between one and the other.

The god of the corresponding sequence, in order to stabilize his own existence, will definitely leave his followers and characteristics in this world to expand his influence and improve his status.

The more influential sequence of gods, the higher the corresponding level. Not only can they intimidate the gods of other sequences, they may even use certain means to devour the authority of gods of other sequences.

Thinking about it carefully, the last time I went to Yong'an Market, the information that the economic environment caused the market to close may also have deeper information hidden.

After all... most of the strange aborigines also need to rely on value exchange to obtain the resources they need to survive.

The existence of the market is very necessary.

For the strange aborigines in the surrounding area, Yong'an Market is almost a necessary place for consumption. Unless this area is completely destroyed, there should be some kind of market.

But now the traffic on the pedestrian streets has increased significantly, and Aboriginal activities have appeared in the surrounding areas.

Instead, Yongan Market is still closed...

There may be a shadow of a power struggle behind it, contained within it.

"Unfortunately, the people and horses don't know the specific time of the transaction. We still need to wait for notification."

"...When the time comes, he will need to obey the arrangements of another high-ranking mob member - Red Scorpion..."

"Red Scorpion has his own real estate in the underground world. It is located at No. 22 in the Lightless Land. There is also a special name there - Emerald Garden!"

"This Red Scorpion is probably in charge of more information. When I go to the underground world another day, I have to get some information from this guy."

Chen Ye learned from the memory of the conversations between the men and the other thugs that his superior was the Red Scorpion mentioned by Zhao Gao.

In Zhao Gao's understanding, Red Scorpion's identity and profession was assigned to be the team leader stationed at the entrance to the underground world near Mink Street.

But judging from the conversation between the centaur and the horse, it seems that this red scorpion’s status and occupation are higher than imagined...

If you think about it carefully, Mink Street was originally the area where thugs originally operated.

The entrance to the underground world where the Red Scorpion is stationed is located near Mink Street.

This geographical location is even more critical to the mob.

After all...the thugs have offended many players. If there is any accident, the area where the fight will take place will most likely be on Mink Street.

"If my guess is correct, Red Scorpion is probably also a third-level professional player." Chen Ye frowned slightly. Through various information, he judged that Red Scorpion's strength should be ranked among the thugs.

There should be at least one in the top ten... Otherwise, where would he be qualified to be stationed near Mink Street, the entrance that may be the most brutal in a fight?

While his thoughts were racing, Chen Ye's figure had returned to the Honesty Restaurant.

At this time, the number of passengers gradually decreased.

The group of slimes finished their meal. Through the transparent glass shop window, from a distance, there were only scattered figures on the dining table.

Shen Meng, in the posture of a cat demon, held a broom and quickly passed through every corner, sweeping the battlefield filled with food residues like wind and clouds.

After all, the eating behavior of those slimes was really too violent.

The entire restaurant is now in a miserable state...

Chen Ye felt inexplicably amused when he saw Shen Meng cleaning so hard.

With a wave of his hand, he immediately used the characteristics of [Parasite Land Deed] to wipe out the garbage all over the house.

"Boss, you're back!"

Wang Jing was holding a booklet with a sad face.

When Chen Ye entered the store and the bell rang, he put down the book. As soon as he looked up, he saw the boss coming.

"What are you looking at, so focused?"

Chen Ye noticed the dark yellow color on Wang Jing's head and a gray aura lingering around him, and asked.

Wang Jing grimaced and was silent for a moment, then scratched his head in embarrassment and said:

"Boss...I am settling accounts...but this is not what I am good at..."

"Chen Meng didn't go to school, and he doesn't even understand addition in elementary school, so I had to do it myself."

"Well, I thought settling accounts would be a very simple matter, but when faced with so many diners, my memory has never been very good and I haven't focused on arithmetic. It's really difficult for me to settle accounts."

Chen Ye frowned and suddenly remembered that settling accounts seemed to be a problem.

The daily revenue of the store needs to be calculated.

Wang Jing is just a cook.

You can't have two jobs and do the work of two people, right?

What's more, the span from cook to accountant is too big...

Besides, Wang Jing is not suitable for accounting work. It is too difficult to cook and settle accounts.

When the cook is busy, how can he keep track of how many guests are coming?

Even the serving time is difficult to guarantee...

If this trend continues, Chengxin Restaurant will become more and more famous and meet more and more diners.

We need to find an accountant for the store who can do accounting.

"Ding!"

At this moment, the bell ringing for customers in the store rang loudly again.

This time, the guests who came to Chengxin Restaurant were wearing palace-style robes and an exaggerated pointed hat. Looking down the black brim, the face with slightly pale skin was clearly that of a man with facial features. The delicate woman has bright lipstick on her lips and purple eyeshadow that is mysterious and ghostly, exuding a unique aura.

Chen Ye raised his eyelids slightly and saw that the guest was shrouded in a halo of glass, and his expression became a little more focused.

"This guest's aura...seems to be a little different..."

"Could it be that another powerful aboriginal has arrived?"

The next second, Chen Ye activated his talent [Research on Blood Letters].

Soon, a career frame appeared on the head of the mysterious lady——

【Witch】

"Witch? What kind of profession is this?" Chen Ye couldn't help but frowned.

To be honest, this is another profession that has never appeared before, but it has appeared again.

"It's you?"

At this moment, Miss Yako frowned, her eyes fell on the [Witch], and her tone seemed to be that she was meeting an old friend again after a long absence.

...It's just a pity that this old friend doesn't seem to be what she wants to see.

"Can't I come and have a drink?" the witch said with a smile.

"Sorry, Bloody Mary doesn't entertain guests like you." Yazi said expressionlessly.

Chen Ye's eyes moved, he looked at Mi Zi and asked, "Do you know him?"

"We were colleagues before, I guess." Yazi shrugged and said, "I was responsible for dancing to attract customers, and this guy... was responsible for using tarot, pendulum and other gadgets to perform divination, and using fortune telling to expand the source of customer flow."

Divination? Could it be that this witch...is also related to the spiritual world sequence?

Chen Ye realized this and his mind moved.

The witch smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I'm tired of eating your Bloody Mary. I happened to be a little hungry this time, and I couldn't find anything delicious in the surrounding restaurants. I happened to smell that there was delicious food here. So come and taste it.”

Wang Jing glanced at Chen Ye, as if he wanted to get some kind of hint.

After all, it's closed now and usually doesn't entertain guests much.

However...at this time when it is almost dawn, there are still guests coming...

Moreover, he seems to know another employee in the store...

It seems that identity is not that simple!

Chen Ye glanced at Wang Jing and said, "Go and prepare the shop's signature [Honey Grilled Chicken Wings] for her."

"okay."

Wang Jing nodded immediately. Anyway, Chen Ye brought a lot of seasonings and made one last time. There was no problem for the time being.

Soon, Wang Jing immediately walked through the screen in the kitchen, worked for a while, and made a portion of [Honey Grilled Chicken Wings].

"Yes, that's the smell."

The witch found a seat in the corner by the window, sat down, and finished enjoying the roasted chicken wings in front of her, showing a satisfied and intoxicated look.

Then, she looked at Chen Ye, smiled mysteriously and said:

"Do you need a divination?"
