Chapter 850: Chapter 589 Cannibal Flower

"Hiss ——!"

The mechanical merchant, Gou Ge, stopped his horse.

Suddenly, two Curse Soldiers jumped out from the darkness ahead, hiding in a blind spot, which startled the group and made them almost act on instinct.

"Who goes there?"

"I am a merchant, a Mechanical Merchant." Gou Ge knocked on his steel body.

To ensure a perfect disguise, he even equipped himself with various cursed items. As a wealthy player, he had a set for every type of equipment, just like changing clothes.

Not because he needed it for combat, but simply because of his obsession with collecting clothes and thinking they look cool.

The two Curse Soldiers narrowed their eyes at Gou Ge, then quickly shifted their gaze to the other three.

They looked completely different from the local twisted and mutated natives.

"They are my latest catch." Gou Ge raised his voice, "I’m looking for a place to sell them. You know, they’re very valuable, from head to toe. I’m expecting to trade them for some good items."

"Of course." The Curse Soldier with the skeletal head on the left nodded, "They are indeed very valuable. Recently, I saw someone buy a dozen or so, all adept at using Magic."

"Magic?" Gou Ge instinctively turned to exchange glances with his three teammates.

In private, they realized that since these Curse Soldiers were so talkative, they could extract more important information from them.

On the surface, they continued chatting.

"Yes, each one carried a Magic Furnace. They sold for a very high price back then." The Curse Soldier on the right spoke actively for once.

Seeing Gou Ge looking at him, he continued, "Three lords competed for them, and in the end, it was Lord Jawbone who emerged victorious."

"Which lords are they?" Gou Ge pointed to the three behind him, "Perhaps those lords didn’t get what they wanted, and my three might meet their needs. I could make a small profit as well."

"Lord Sword Dragon, Lord White Mist, and Lord Jawbone. They are the lords of this area and often gather to study Magic."

When Magic was mentioned, their eyes sparkled with longing.

"Is there any way to meet Lord Jawbone?" Gou Ge asked, "I think if he has already bought before, he might want more, and would offer a generous price."

"Continue in this direction, go past the third tall Stone Pillar."

Before Gou Ge could ask more, the two Curse Soldiers nodded at him and then quickly withdrew, seemingly finding other issues to resolve.

"Luckily they were friendly. If we had approached as enemies, we would certainly have been ambushed." 21 Assist’s voice was filled with relief.

"What’s that tall Stone Pillar for?"

"I wish I knew."

As they proceeded, the four didn’t give up brainstorming. The more they encountered, the more mysteries they found.

Three powerful lords, tall Stone Pillars, and humans who were also captured and sold as commodities.

They soon approached the nearest tall Stone Pillar. From a distance it looked slightly tilted, but as they got closer, it was as if it were a skyscraper from Earth, requiring a strained neck to see the top, and it covered a vast area.

Oddly, there was a spiral staircase on the outside, but the interior was inaccessible.

Not stopping for long, they continued on their way.

The land was sparse but strangely populated, as they soon encountered someone emerging from the grass.

Unlike the Curse Soldiers with their spiky teeth, this newcomer was tall, green, and floppy like a boneless rubber figure.

Fortunately, he retained his vocal cords after transforming into a creature.

A being that resembles an Abyssal Calamity from any angle is likely an Abyssal Calamity.

"Praise the Red Robe, honorable lord!"

"Hmm?" Gou Ge was stunned; it was his first time encountering such a formal greeting.

"Praise... likewise." Gou Ge said awkwardly.

Now there was new information, along with new mysteries.

The Red Robe?

"You must be extremely powerful, a great strong one!" The green rubber figure said, "Sorry for not introducing myself. You can call me Sludge, a filthy scavenger scratching food from the dirt."

"Wow." Gou Ge didn’t know how to respond.

Should he be pleased with the other’s frankness, or something else?

After all, someone introducing themselves as a ’filthy scavenger’ was so candid it left the usually witty undead at a loss for words.

"How could you tell?" Gou Ge asked.

"Your captives." Sludge pointed to the other three undead, "You must be very strong to capture such powerful beings."

"Haha."

The three in the cart couldn’t help but laugh first.

"They haven’t even shown their fangs." Gou Ge said confidently.

Immersed in the situation, it was hard not to get into character.

"And I saw you talking with those soldiers with fangs. They respected you and even gave you directions."

"To the third tall Stone Pillar." Gou Ge nodded, acknowledging Sludge’s guess.

Though dull and ugly, Sludge had keen eyes and a sharp mind.

"That’s Lord Jawbone’s residence." Sludge nodded repeatedly, his eyes filled with cautious reverence.

"Why are you so sure I will help you?"
