Chapter 1814: Chapter 1814: The Grand Gathering of the Taylor Family_1 Chapter 1814: Chapter 1814: The Grand Gathering of the Taylor Family_1 Ethan Smith had just arrived in the Central Province and didn't know much, so he quickly asked, “Excuse me, how do I get to the Taylor family?”
“It's impossible to go to the Taylor family directly, but you can go to a nearby transport station. It's much faster that way.” The stall owner said with a smile.
Then, he looked at Ethan and said, “You just arrived in the Central Province, right?”
Ethan nodded, “Yes, can you tell me where the nearby transport station is?”
“Oh, it's not easy to find the transport station, and it's quite expensive if you pay your way.” The stall owner continued.
“How expensive?” Ethan's brow furrowed.
The stall owner thought for a moment and said, “It would cost at least ten billion magic coins to get close to the Taylor family!”
Ethan's face suddenly changed.
Ten billion!
Where has Ethan had the time to earn money recently? He could barely come up with five billion, let alone ten billion.
“What about the Wilson family?” Ethan continued to ask.
“Oh, the Wilson family is closer. I guess five billion would be enough.” The stall owner continued.
At this point, the stall owner asked with doubt, “Do you have a relationship with both families?”
“Yes, I have quite a deep connection with both families.” Ethan bluffed.
“Then why don't you attend their grand event? In three days, they will hold a grand event at Causide Mountain, which will be much cheaper. Five billion magic coins will be enough!” The stall owner said.
Upon hearing this, Ethan's face changed again.
The grand event? Could it be that damn engagement between Daniel Wilson and Emily Taylor?
Thinking of this, Ethan hurriedly asked, “Brother, please tell me the location of the nearby transport station!”
The stall owner grinned, “Like I said, you won't be able to find it on your own. How about this, I'll accompany you there, but you'll have to pay a commission.”
“That's great! Thank you, brother!” Ethan quickly nodded.
So, the stall owner packed up his things and led Ethan to the nearby transport station.
On the way, Ethan became anxious, taking the opportunity to ask, “Do you know the purpose of their grand event?”
“You said you have a deep connection with them, and you don't even know? How could I know?” The stall owner mumbled.
Ethan clenched his teeth, feeling even more uneasy.
After a long walk and numerous turns, they finally arrived at the so-called transport station.
This transport station was essentially a giant array platform that could connect to many different places.
“We're here. Give me the money, and I'll help you with the procedure.” The stall owner said.
With some caution, Ethan said, “I'd better go with you.”
“No, this transport station is only open to the people of the Central Province. You just wait outside for me.” The stall owner said.
Ethan was extremely vigilant, his eyes narrowing. However, he eventually handed over the money.
The stall owner took the card and walked into the transport station.
As soon as he entered, Ethan activated his desolate divine eye and kept a close watch on the stall owner.
Ethan watched as the stall owner walked deeper inside the transport station while caressing the card.
But there was no real procedure going on; he just went inside and walked around before heading out through the back door.
“Damn it, I knew he was a scammer!” Ethan couldn't help but curse under his breath.
He immediately used the line word formula and quickly caught up!
As soon as the stall owner left the transport station, he intended to run. However, he had not run far when Ethan grabbed him by the neck from behind.
“You dare to deceive me?” Ethan lifted him into the air, and his terrifying power rendered the stall owner completely immobile!
The stall owner couldn't help but panic! Despite not being very strong, he had already stepped into the half-step Reversion Void Stage!
However, facing Ethan, he felt as if he was facing a mountain and couldn't muster even the slightest resistance!
“Fri… friends, I'll return the money to you…” The stall owner was instantly frightened and began to wonder if Ethan Smith had some secret relationship with the two Great Families!
Ethan took the card from his hand and said coldly, “You think returning my things after stealing them will make everything alright?”
The stall owner was in deep trouble, not expecting the young man he took for a country bumpkin to be so difficult to deal with.
“What do you want me to do?” The stall owner asked helplessly.
“Is what you told me earlier true or not?” Ethan asked coldly.
The stall owner hastily replied, “I swear, everything I said was true! Not a single lie!”
Ethan took a deep breath and said, “Take me to the transport station and send me to Causide Mountain.”
“Alright, alright, no problem,” The stall owner said.
Subsequently, under the guidance of the stall owner, Ethan re-entered the transport station.
As it turned out, the stall owner's claim that it was only open to the people of the Central Province was false. After paying, Ethan entered the array platform.
To activate this array platform, a large number of materials known as teleportation stones were needed. It was said that these stones were exceedingly scarce and non-renewable, making them extremely precious.
The majority of teleportation stone mines in the world were monopolized by several Great Families.
This business practice was somewhat similar to those found on Earth.
After completing the necessary procedures, Ethan waited quietly in the teleportation array.
The platform would only activate once eight people had gathered.
Time passed, and people gradually arrived.
These individuals were all extraordinary in their appearance and exuded an intimidating aura, clearly not ordinary people.
Ethan looked at a man beside him and asked, “Are you going to Causide Mountain too?”
“Yes,” The man seemed quite proud.
Ethan thought quickly and said, “So am I. Going to the Taylor and Wilson family's grand event caused me quite a bit of trouble.”
Upon hearing this, the man's attitude changed dramatically.
With some reverence, he said, “Sir, you're attending the grand event as well? From where do you come?”
“It's not to be disclosed. In any case, Daniel Wilson used to call me his elder brother.” Ethan Smith continued with his tall tale.
“Wow, Daniel Wilson used to call you his elder brother? May I ask your name?” The man's attitude grew even more respectful.
Ethan thought for a moment and said, “You don't need to know my name. Just remember, people call me Giancarlo Dotson.”
“Giancarlo Dotson?” The man frowned, seeming unfamiliar.
“Yes, back then, Daniel used to call me Brother Giancarlo. You must remember that my relationship with Daniel is quite exceptional.” Ethan continued.
The man was very respectful and said, “I never thought I would meet such a distinguished guest. I had to spend a lot of effort to obtain my invitation to the grand event.”
Ethan remained silent.
It seemed that an invitation was indeed needed to attend the grand event.
“It looks like I'll have to trick you out of your invitation later,” Ethan said softly to himself.
