Chapter 49 - The lively Wanderer town (1)

After leaving Black Rock City, Tang Zhen headed to Wanderer town.

On the way back to the Wanderer town, Tang Zhen personally witnessed seven scenes of cultivators fighting against corpse monsters. Black Rock City was the main force while the Wanderers were the support. From this, it seemed that Black Rock City had made up their mind.

Both parties were ambitious. Black Rock City was the old Overlord of this area. The undead’s goal was to conquer the entire world of towers, and Black Rock City was the first obstacle on their way to conquest.

In the end, there would only be one ruler left in this area, so both sides would spare no effort to kill each other.

Although the war caused the people to suffer, it also contained huge business opportunities. Could he do something in this area?

When Tang Zhen arrived at the Wanderer town, he noticed that the number of Wanderers entering and leaving the town had suddenly increased by several times. Occasionally, there were even one or two residents of Black Rock City mixed in.

The entrance to Wanderer town was in a mess. Fights would break out from time to time, but the two sides were still restrained, and no one died.

Tang Zhen asked around and found out that the residents of Black Rock City had just arrived here two days ago. They were mainly in charge of issuing missions to kill corpse monsters, counting the monster Certificates brought back by the Wanderers, and giving out the corresponding rewards.

This place was near the entrance of the Wanderer town, and it was very lively.

From time to time, Wanderers, wild cultivators, and members of the exploration team would come over to hand in their missions. Then, they would choose the rewards they needed, be it food, or accumulate them to exchange for weapons and armor.

Some Wanderers with severely damaged weapons and armors would enter the town to repair them or change into new equipment.

Compared to ordinary Wanderers, these Wanderers had more than enough funds to cultivate in the wild. At the very least, they wouldn’t run out of food on a regular basis.

Of course, these brains were exchanged with their lives. They might die in the wilderness one day. If they were lucky, they would have an intact corpse, and if they were unlucky, they would become food for monsters.

Tang Zhen stopped and watched for a moment before walking in the direction of the cave.

From a distance, everything outside the cave looked normal.

The little girl Murong Ziyue was squatting at the entrance of the cave, looking at the bugs on the ground. Beside her was a huge bear. The two of them pointed at the ground and laughed happily.

“Little girls, what are you all looking at?”

Tang Zhen laughed and called out.

“Brother Tang Zhen, you’re back!”

After the little girl saw Tang Zhen, she immediately stood up and ran over with her arms and legs dancing. She was immediately hugged by Tang Zhen.

The big Bear foolishly looked at Tang Zhen. It seemed as if it also wanted to run over. However, it did not move. Instead, it had an expression of anticipation.

Tang Zhen looked at the drooling Big Bear. He then looked at the little girl who was also looking at him with her large, watery eyes. How could he not guess their thoughts?

He reached behind him, and when he took it out, he was already holding a handful of exquisite candy.

The colorful candy was very dazzling under the sun, as if it was emitting a holy light. The little girl and Big Bear immediately cheered when they saw this, and then took the candy to the side to carefully taste it.

Murong Zi Yan and Qian Long also heard the noise and walked out of the cave together. After seeing Tang Zhen, the two of them revealed an expression as if they were relieved of a heavy burden.

Tang Zhen took a look and discovered that da Xiong and Qian Long’s injuries were recovering quite well.

For a Wanderer, getting injured was a common occurrence. The two of them had good recovery abilities, and with Murong Ziyan’s Ivy ointment, their recovery speed was even faster.

“How is it? are you feeling better?”

Tang Zhen patted Qian Long’s chest and asked in a concerned tone.

“There’s no problem. This small injury is nothing to me.

I’ve already secretly inquired about it. That guy is the leader of a small exploration team and is very powerful, so if we want to take revenge on him, it’s best to do it in secret.”

Qian Long smiled as he spoke to Tang Zhen.

“Mm, don’t worry, I know what to do! Let’s not talk about this for now.”

Tang Zhen already had a plan on how to deal with the bearded man. Qian Long didn’t say anything more when he saw Tang Zhen avoiding the topic.

Murong Zi Yan had been looking at Tang Zhen with a concerned look the whole time. When she saw Tang Zhen’s eyes turn to her, she revealed a little girl’s posture with a somewhat shy expression on her face.

This time, Tang Zhen had bought quite a lot of things for the four of them. After greeting them, he took the bag that he was carrying as a cover into the cave and poured out the things for the four of them.

The four of them were used to living a hard life, so how could they have seen so much food and clothes?

The few of them had excited expressions on their faces. Qian Long and Murong Zi Yan were still fine, but the little girl had already gone crazy with joy. She was holding a big bag of candy and jumping around on the ground.

Big Bear was envious as he watched. He squatted there and drooled. Tang Zhen smiled when he saw this. He also took out a bag and handed it to Big Bear.

The big guy immediately roared excitedly. His voice was extremely penetrating, causing pain in his eardrums. Tang Zhen was so angry that he kicked his butt.

Murong Ziyan looked at the clothes and small items that Tang Zhen had given her and couldn’t help but secretly smile. Her face was filled with joy and sweetness.

“Brother Tang, where did you get these things?”

Qian Long couldn’t help but ask.

Tang Zhen’s body was filled with a sense of mystery, and this feeling only grew stronger as time passed. Even Qian Long, who knew his limits, couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity,

“It’s not the time to tell you now, is it?” Tang Zhen smiled. As long as you follow me, there’s no mistake!”

Qian Long didn’t mind Tang Zhen’s perfunctory reply. He only lightly nodded his head before fiddling with the wolf-eye flashlight and military dagger that Tang Zhen had given him. His face was filled with joy.

After distributing the things they had brought, Murong Zi Yan went to prepare some food. Tang Zhen and Qian Long walked out of the cave and found a rock to sit down on. They began to discuss the things that had happened in the past few days.

Tang zhenjing listened to what had happened in the past few days and nodded gently while pondering in her heart.

According to thousand Dragon, the zombie horde this time was indeed different from the monsters in the past. Not only were they large in number, but they were also strong in combat and possessed simple intelligence. They were definitely not comparable to the monsters in the wilderness that only knew how to kill.

The cultivators that Black Rock City had sent out had suffered heavy casualties, and the Wanderers had suffered even more. However, after paying a huge price, the number of zombie monsters did not decrease. On the contrary, it seemed to have increased.

The stench of blood on the battlefield attracted more and more monsters from the wilderness.

A few days ago, some Wanderers had even seen a level five Black-winged Blue Dragon in the distance.

It was said that the Black-winged Blue Dragon was more than 20 meters long and usually lived in the dangerous wilderness. This time, it was attracted by the bloody smell.

There was news that Black Rock City had already requested for reinforcements from the other cities, but it was still unclear if they would receive any reinforcements.

On the other hand, Wanderers from other places had been gathering over the past few days, with the intention of taking advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune from the war.

The equipment of Wanderers who died in battle, the brains of monsters, the rewards for missions, and the trade of resources were all good opportunities for Wanderers to make a fortune.

There were even a few mobile merchant teams that were heading towards Black Rock City, bringing with them a large amount of war supplies that were urgently needed.

Tang Zhen’s eyes immediately lit up when he heard this. These Wanderers from other places might be able to bring him a large amount of cash, gold, silver, and jewelry.

Even if he didn’t have these things, he could still start a department store wholesale and earn a large number of brain pearls from the hands of these Wanderers.
