Wizard: Gou adds some demon hunting in the Steam Age
Chapter 63 The place where desires are stored
To say you can play, you have to be someone here who can play.
The entire city that never sleeps is built deep underground. The entrance is not far from the Basil neighborhood and closer to the Natoli neighborhood.
Compared to the Basil neighborhood, which has a mixed population, the Natoli neighborhood is mostly populated by aristocratic classes, and is the only neighborhood in the city-state of Castor that can compete with the central area.
The Dumitru neighborhood, the Ruhr neighborhood and the Idrisu neighborhood can only be regarded as the second echelon.
"How's it going? Shocking enough, right?"
Wayne nodded, "Indeed..."
He didn't know how many steps he walked from the entrance to here, he just walked down, down.
Originally, he thought it would be a place similar to a black market, but it wasn't until he saw the castle illuminated by gas lamps that he realized that this place was obviously not serious.
Deep underground, an empty cave appeared, with darkness above it, like a starless night sky.
And in the middle of the cave is the castle - the city that never sleeps.
The whole castle has a small and exquisite appearance. It is said to be a castle, but it is about the same size as the office area of the property management department.
When I walked along a dark stone road to the entrance of the castle, I suddenly felt a lot brighter.
Two rows of girls dressed in cool clothes solemnly saluted each guest, "Welcome to the city that never sleeps."
They all wear veils on their faces, revealing only a pair of crystal eyes. When they stare at you, they seem to be talking: Come in and play, guest.
"Let's go."
Marco straightened his uniform and walked in first.
Wei En retracted his gaze that was attracted by those cool hanging clocks and quickly followed, "Are you sure you can buy what I want here?"
"If you can't buy it here, there's nowhere else to buy it in Custer...except Gilman."
"Fine."
After everything came, Wei En had no choice but to believe Marco and take a look at the city that never sleeps in his heart.
After entering the castle, there is a very spacious hall, which is gorgeously decorated and very beautiful.
The carpet was very soft, with red and black stripes on it. Several pillars were painted golden and carved with some indistinguishable monsters.
In the middle of the hall was a row of sofas for people to rest on, with several well-dressed men wearing top hats chatting and laughing in low voices.
But when he saw the two of them, the expressions on their faces became unnatural, and they muttered words such as bad luck and ominous words.
Of course, some people greeted Marco in a friendly way, most of them asking about the time and place of the next cocktail party.
Thinking about the few cocktail parties held before, they were deeply impressed.
At this time, a thin old man wearing a well-dressed tuxedo, with an old face but dressed energetically came over and said, "Long time no see, Marco."
"I haven't been here for a while. How are you here? Old Ross."
"Of course, the halo of the red moon cannot shine here. But I have to say that your clothes today are not suitable for this place. It will scare the guests."
Marco shrugged, "I'm just here to buy something."
"Then I can rest assured. It's not like there's anything weird here." Old Ross smiled and said, "Do you need anything? Let's see if I can help you."
"It's not me," Marco said to Wei En, "He needs some materials and tools for making mechanical puppets, um, and materials for making potions."
"Oh? Are you a wizard apprentice from the Mechanical School who studies potions? Marco, your secret blending department really recruits everyone..."
Wei En met his gaze and smiled shyly, but secretly he was on guard.
Ever since I entered the door, the panel has been flashing like crazy, even more frequently than when I met Claire.
[You are scanned by Bokar Reva's mental perception, reward: survival point +1. 】
[You are targeted by Kiriam Kristoff’s murderous intent. Rating: A fool blinded by desire. Reward: Survival Points +2. 】
[Because your toughness level is greater than level 8, the bone-eroding insect invasion failed! Reward: Survival point +1. 】
【……】
[You step into the place where the faith of an unknown existence is stored. Because your spiritual level is greater than 20, you successfully resisted the erosion of the power of desire. Evaluation: Are you annoyed that your spirit level is too high? Special rewards: +3 survival points, +1 toughness level. 】
Forget about spiritual perception, murderous intent, and bone-eating insects, this is still a place where faith is stored!
The power of desire corrodes... It should be faith in desire.
Wei En looked around quietly. Under the bright lights, there were several passages around the hall that were dark and hard to see clearly. Only some subtle sounds could be heard.
It’s really hard to imagine how those people had such a good time in such a dangerous place.
Didn't those bone-eating insects attack them?
Or is it that they have lost their basic ability to judge after being eroded by the power of desire?
Marco retorted: "Just like you here, aren't there girls from every country?"
"You're so vulgar, Marco,"
Old Ross looked at Wayne and said, "Come with me. What you need is on the third floor."
With that said, he turned around and led the way, and the two of them followed.
Marco curled his lips, bumped Wei En with his shoulder, and said ambiguously: "After you finish shopping later, do you want to stay here for a while?"
"No, I promised to have dinner with Uncle Euan." Wei En lied casually.
Before coming to the City that never sleeps, he had some expectations for this place.
But when he actually arrived here, he realized that apart from the exotic style, it was not as good as the places he had seen in his previous life...
Are all places like this the same model?
Therefore, now he just wants to finish shopping and leave.
"Well, I'll bring you here again when I get the chance next time."
"……no problem."
Wei En's answer was sincere. In the distance from the first floor to the third floor, he received nearly fifty reminder messages.
Fortunately, most of them are mental perception scans, and there are not many lunatics blinded by desire.
But he also noticed that as the floors rose, the mental level required to resist the power of desire also increased.
[You step into the place where the faith of an unknown existence is stored, because your spiritual level is greater than 30... Special rewards: survival points +4, resilience level +1. 】
[You stepped into the place where the beliefs of an unknown existence are stored, because your spiritual level is greater than 40... Evaluation: Are you going to challenge your weakness? Special rewards: +5 survival points, +1 toughness level, +1 spiritual level. 】
Wei En looked up and saw that that was where the power of desire was strongest.
Could it be a totem of faith similar to that used in the despair sacrificial ceremony?
I don’t know what desire and belief are like.
"ah--"
Just then, a piercing scream sounded.
Then, several panicked voices came.
"Is anyone there? Run, she, she's out of control!"
"Run quickly..."
Wei En looked around and was shocked to see several people running out of the corridor opposite, looking panicked...
Immediately afterwards, several guards wearing black armor emerged from the shadows and rushed deeper into the corridor.
"Ah ho——"
A more piercing scream sounded,
Accompanied by crazy roars...
"Damn it," Old Rose's face changed slightly, "Can't they be quieter?"
Marco frowned and looked there, "You still dare to imprison those things?"
"They are all brought by the guests themselves... You know, as long as they abide by the rules of the city that never sleeps, we have no reason to refuse."
PS: Thanks for the tip from the man who adds extra sugar to the chocolate.
