Chapter 695: Does this look good on me?
An open-air bazaar.
The sound of music was intermittent.
People were chatting with one another, drinking and discussing business.
Liu Ping was having a misconception.
— — -as if this was an era of peace.
"Your Excellency’s fruit Card is extraordinarily valuable, more than enough to pay for the entrance fee and drinks, I will also gift you a spell." the information merchant said.
He put a Card on the table.
Liu Ping looked at it, only to see lines of text floating next to the Card:
[Numbered spell: Shadow Shroud]
[This spell is numbered and can only be used by you alone, no one else]
[— — this is a type of disguise spell, as well as proof of entry fee for the bazaar]
Liu Ping pressed his hand on the Card.
Bam!
The Card turned into a black light that enveloped his body.
He was now the same as the other shadows.
"Alright, you may tell me, what kind of information do you want?" the information merchant asked.
"I actually want to know — —"
Liu Ping stopped mid-sentence and looked up again.
Only to see another 7-8 shadows had appeared from the void of space, wielding various weapons as they hurriedly flew towards the other side of the street.
— — Did something happen?
Liu Ping was a bit confused.
The information merchant waved his hand and smiled: "No need to worry, no one has ever been able to cause trouble here for no reason, they will definitely pay a heavy price. Your Excellency, let us continue our discussion."
"Ah, alright." Liu Ping regained his senses and said: "I want to know how to reach the end of Evernight, preferably with a detailed map."
"The end of Evernight?" the information merchant was surprised.
"Indeed." Liu Ping replied.
"The end of Evernight leads to Purgatory, that isn’t a normal place — — - to be honest, this information isn’t cheap." the information merchant said.
"Please state your price." Liu Ping said.
He was even a bit glad.
As long as there’s a price, it’s fine.
If there’s a price, it means that I can find the way to reach the end of Evernight.
The worst thing is that no one knows how to get there.
"I want all the fruit Cards you have." the information merchant said.
"No problem."
Liu Ping put the rest of the fruit Cards on the table.
The information merchant glanced at the Cards and said satisfyingly: "Your Excellency is quite forthright in doing business."
"Please give me the information." Liu Ping said.
The information merchant took out a map and placed it in front of him, then took the fruit Cards on the table.
"Money and goods." the information merchant said with a smile.
Liu Ping picked up the map and looked at it carefully for a while. He saw that it was filled with regions, monsters, and areas of influence.
The End of Evernight was located at the northernmost point of the map.
The route along the way was divided into several routes, each marked with a corresponding difficulty and method of travel.
— — It was indeed a very detailed map.
"Is there anything else you would like to know?" the merchant asked.
"Let’s not talk about business for now. I want to ask if the route marked on this map really leads to the end of Evernight Continent. Could there be any mistakes? "Liu Ping asked.
"You’re very cautious." the information merchant said.
"I can’t not be cautious. If I spend a lot of time and energy and end up going the wrong way, then I’m done for." Liu Ping smiled.
"Let me tell you, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this map." the merchant said.
The smile on Liu Ping’s face gradually disappeared.
That was not right.
This guy was lying.
No one had ever been able to lie in front of him without him noticing.
— — Trying to use a fake map to trick all of my Fruit Cards?
Liu Ping spoke in a low voice: "I don’t want the map, please give me back my fruit."
The information merchant suddenly stood up: "How is that possible? You’ve already seen the map, and now you’re saying that you don’t want it, are you playing with me? "
"The map is fake." Liu Ping said.
"That’s impossible, this map was meticulously made by our organization, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it!" the information merchant said.
Liu Ping furrowed his brows.
Another lie.
Whenever he’s lying, I’ll be able to sense it.
"I just happen to have an ability to distinguish between truth and falsehood, so please don’t lie to me, otherwise, the consequences will be dire."
Liu Ping lightly put his hand on the [Blade of Illusion] and softly said.
The information merchant chuckled.
— — -although there was a shadow between them, Liu Ping could still feel that he had chuckled.
"Men, someone is causing trouble here." the information merchant waved his hand behind him.
A phantom silently appeared.
It was Liu Ping’s phantom, hovering in the air, trembling as if he was having a seizure.
As soon as the information merchant said that, the phantom swung the Blade in his hand.
One slash.
A bolt of lightning pierced through the information merchant’s body and hit the wall at the end of the street, creating a bottomless ravine.
Occultism Blade Art, Tremor Slash.
From start to finish, Liu Ping simply sat in front of the table without moving, ready to deal with any situation.
— — -This is where the value of the [Blade of Illusion] lies.
He only needs to think about it in his mind to have the phantom attack for him, the main body doesn’t need to personally take the risk.
"I’ll say it one last time, give me back the Card."
Liu Ping said.
The information merchant looked at his left arm.
That slash just now, he didn’t even have time to react before his arm was cut off.
What a ruthless character!
Damn it, I’m clearly working for the organization here, why don’t I have a single bodyguard?
There should be at least three bodyguards around here.
But — — -
Where are they?
The information merchant clenched his teeth and decided not to take the loss.
"I’ll give it back to you, but think about it carefully, offending our organization won’t end well."
He said firmly.
In the sky.
A total of 11 shadows appeared.
"They’re from the organization! Haha, you’re dead for sure! "the information merchant happily said.
He waved his hand in the air and shouted: "Oi, there’s someone here who wants to die!"
Who knew that the 11 shadows didn’t even look at him and hurriedly flew in another direction.
The information merchant was stunned, then suddenly realized that something wasn’t right.
Something really wasn’t right — —
There were already a few groups of people flying in that direction.
And now there’s another group of experts flying in that direction.
Thinking about it carefully, the organization has already used all of their strength.
What exactly happened that caused my arm to be cut off and no one came to ask about it?
While the information merchant was still in shock, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck.
An illusory figure stood behind him, holding a blade to his neck, not moving at all.
"I need a way to go to the end of Eternal Night, I hope you can give me the real information and not lie to me again."
Liu Ping said.
The Blade lightly pressed down.
Blood quickly flowed down his neck and dripped down.
A bitter smile appeared on the information merchant’s face.
He originally thought that it was a newbie, who knew that it was a ruthless character and coincidentally ran into a problem with the organization.
It was a loss this time.
He quickly said: "Sir, you must have just woken up from your dream, you don’t know the situation of the Eternal Night world."
"Yes." Liu Ping said.
"Eternal Night is vast and boundless, even if you fly at the fastest speed for dozens of years, you won’t be able to reach the end. Do you think that an organization like ours can know this level of information?" the information merchant said.
Lies.
Liu Ping’s eyes swept over and said lightly: "You’re lying to me again."
The information merchant was stunned.
There’s really someone who can tell if someone is lying or telling the truth?
This kid is amazing.
The information merchant’s eyes flashed and said: "My level is too low, I don’t know about the end of Eternal Night. If you’re really interested, why don’t you go to the fifth house from the left on the second street in the south? That’s where the higher-ups of our organization live, you can ask around there"
The truth.
This time, he finally spoke the truth.
However, although it was the truth, this matter naturally contained the greatest danger.
The higher-ups of an organization were of course the strongest.
After he went there, if he couldn’t beat the other party, his end would be very miserable.
"Well said." Liu Ping said.
"Sir, if you want to know such high-level information, you can only find our higher-ups." the information merchant shook his head and spoke seriously.
A Blade flashed.
The head flew up and rolled into the corner of the room.
The surroundings immediately became noisy.
Liu Ping casually waved his hand and put the other party’s body into his World Sleeve, then stood up, held his Blade and walked through the crowded seats towards the street.
The shadows on the seats were all observing him.
But no one acted.
Only one of the shadows laughed: "You’re in trouble!"
Liu Ping stopped and asked loudly: "Do any of you know how to get to the end of Eternal Night? I only want this information."
The black shadows were speechless.
— — -seems like no one knows.
Or perhaps these guys are treating me like a dead man.
They’re waiting for me to die, and they’re not willing to get involved with that organization.
Liu Ping’s gaze swept around.
Still no one answered.
He walked straight out, stood on the street, identified the direction, and headed south.
The further south he walked, the quieter it became.
Even the shadows on the street were a lot fewer than before.
When Liu Ping reached the fifth house from the left on the second street in the south, there was no one around.
"It’s here."
He walked forward and knocked on the door.
"Please come in."
A female voice came from inside the door.
Liu Ping paused.
After a few moments, he pushed the door open and walked in.
Inside the door was a lawn with several tables full of items, as well as a pile of chairs. It was obvious that a lot of people used to stay here.
Little Fairy sat on a chair, playing with a skull with two horns on its head and asked:
"Liu Ping, does this skull look good on me?"
She put the double-horned skull on her head and turned around to look at Liu Ping, revealing a sweet smile.
There was no one around.
Only the table next to Little Fairy was filled with fruits of various colors.
