Sean's night vision ability is not so outstanding, but as a legendary top power, he still has night vision ability.
But now, in front of him, Sean could not even see each other's facial features, except that he could vaguely observe a human figure sitting on a soft chair and sofa.
At this moment, the outside of the room is illuminated like day because of the continuous bloom of magic fireworks, but the environment inside the room is like a black hole that can devour all light - Sean didn't notice this until now. He found that his perception seemed to become a little dull. But in any case, two opposite worlds have formed inside and outside the house: darkness and light.
But what really shocked Sean was not the dark environment like a black hole.
But the two words that the other party spits out from his mouth.
Xu Qing.
A name that should not belong to the world.
Even the people of the qainas Empire, the strongest overlord in the eastern continent with the same black hair and black pupil and typical oriental face as Sean, their names basically follow the so-called "Western format" in Sean's memory, that is, the way composed of name and surname. Moreover, Sean has seen the most ancient Chinese surname on earth. There is only one "Luo", and most of the others are still in the form of multi character structure.
But at the moment, a man who claimed to be Xu Qing suddenly appeared in front of him.
Sean's pupils are tiny and his mood is in an extreme fluctuation.
"You've met other face travelers." The man who claimed to be Xu Qing spoke again, "it seems that I'm looking for the right person."
Sean's perception seemed to recover at this moment. He keenly noticed the word group of "other plane travelers" mentioned by Xu Qing. In his memory, the only people who could match this vocabulary group were those he had the honor to meet and fight side by side: Andrew, Beth and enkos.
"Who the hell are you?" Sean's muscles tightened and then relaxed a little, which was a standard signal that he was in combat.
"Hey, don't be nervous. I'm not here to fight with you." The other party seemed to feel Sean's muscle information, so he smiled and said, but there was no tension in his words, and even vaguely looked forward to it. It seemed that Sean's desperate hands on him would make him more satisfied, "as for me... I've told you, my name is Xu Qing. Well... I'm a businessman for the time being. "
"Merchant?" Sean scoffed at Xu Qing's statement.
"Of course, it's just that my products are different from those of ordinary businessmen in the traditional sense." Xu Qing's voice was a little more smiling. It seemed that no matter when and where, he had a unique temperament of calm and self-confidence, "you can buy everything, no matter what it is, here."
Xu Qing emphasized the saying "everything".
"Oh." Sean gave a sneer, and the look on his face obviously didn't believe it. "Can you sell anything?"
"Of course." The man's tone was obviously somewhat pleased.
"What about the buds of the world tree?" Sean said coldly.
"World tree bud?" Xu Qing thought for a moment, and then patted his palm. "You don't say I'm fast. I got something a long time ago and can't sell it. I almost forget that I have this kind of thing."
Hearing each other's voice and tone, Sean was obviously stunned, but he didn't fully trust each other's words.
Until, throwing something from the other hand, Sean subconsciously stretched out his hand and took it, the whole talent was completely stunned.
What Sean held in his hand was the seeds of the world tree that had been infused with enough life and began to sprout.
He doesn't know what the buds of the world tree look like, but he has seen the life tree after all, and has also rested in the room with the strongest vitality of the life tree, so he is very sensitive to the breath of the life tree. The vitality of the things held by Sean now is richer and purer than the vitality emitted by the life tree Sean once felt, and the breath is obviously stronger than the life tree.
There is no doubt that this one looks just like a seed that has just begun to sprout. It is definitely a bud of the world tree.
"This... How is this possible!" Sean exclaimed, "in this world, there is no..."
Halfway through, Sean had remembered each other's identity.
Xu Qing, a mysterious guy who calls himself a businessman.
Obviously, the other party is not a person in this world, or does not belong to this plane, so it is not surprising that he has the world tree bud in his hand. Maybe the other party's world has a world tree, and he has obtained such a world tree bud.
But what makes Sean wonder is, which plane world does the other party come from?
This is obviously like the naming method of Chinese on earth
"It seems that you have realized something." Xu Qing's voice sounded again, but this time with his voice, the darkness of the room imitated what traction the Buddha had received, and began to converge towards Xu Qing's position. In the twinkling of an eye, the whole room was bright again.
This time, Sean finally saw each other's appearance.
This is as like as two peas in a boy who looks almost thirty years old. He has a black pupil with exactly the same black character as Sean, and a very typical oriental face. But the most striking thing is his eyes, which have an unspeakable aura. He was wearing a black casual suit - very incompatible with the dress of miracle mainland. Outside the suit was a large black windbreaker and a pair of military boots.
The man, or Xu Qing, was sitting on a soft sofa with his right hand on the back of the sofa and his legs crossed, while his left hand was held flat. The culprit who caused the darkness of the whole room just now was condensed into a small black ball and suspended on his left hand.
"Dark field, are you interested?" Seeing Sean's eyes focused on the black ball in his left hand, Xu Qing smiled and said, "if you want, I can sell it to you cheaper The three-level rule that has been thoroughly analyzed can be used immediately as long as you buy it, eliminating all the troubles you need to re analyze and understand. If you buy now, you will also give five years of after-sales consultation and answers. "
"Even the law can sell?" Sean frowned.
"Of course." Xu Qing still kept a smile on his face, "don't say it's the law. As long as you can afford enough price, I can even get you a face world Of course, it's impossible for you to be in such a high plane, but it's no problem that you haven't given birth to any spiritual and biological barren plane. "
Holding the tender bud of the world tree in his hand, Sean was silent for a moment and finally said, "what is the transaction currency subject to?"
"In principle, anything will do." Xu Qing smiled. At this moment, Sean felt that the other party was somewhat like those demons in hell, giving him a very cunning feeling, "anything, including life, love, family affection, wisdom, even law, your children, your army and so on, can be used as a bargain as long as you can take it out Of course, in terms of value, there must be negotiations. "
"So... What if I want to buy a world tree bud in your hand?" Sean said, "what do I need to pay?"
A smile appeared on Xu Qing's face. When he grasped his left hand, the black ball that should be the law of darkness disappeared from his hand in an instant, and the whole person's temperament changed greatly at this moment.
"I need a message." Xu Qing, like a beast ready to prey, was full of aggression. "Just tell me where other travelers who have contacted you have gone, then the tender bud of the world tree... Belongs to you."
With a slight sigh, Sean shook his head: "change the negotiation content. I can't promise you this. It's not that I don't want to say, but that I really don't know their whereabouts. "
Xu Qing stared at Sean. Instead of answering immediately, he pursed his lips and frowned.
At this moment, the momentum brought by Xu Qing in silence to Sean was particularly heavy, which was really like a mountain.
This feeling is not strange to Sean, because he once felt it in Alexis. It is a unique momentum that can be felt only when the strength of both sides is in an absolute gap - especially for Sean who has begun to touch the realm of super strong, as long as his perception is not deceived. From this point of view, Sean has been able to judge that the real personal strength of the so-called businessman who claims to be Xu Qing is not weaker than Alexis.
Even, vaguely through the sense of coercion brought to him by the other party, Sean thought that the other party had a very similar degree of force field with Andrew.
If so, the businessman named Xu Qing's personal strength can even be said to be completely superior to Alexis.
This is why Sean had to give up the idea of robbing the world tree buds from each other.
As for relying on the news of selling Andrew and others in exchange for the bud of the world tree, Sean is not the kind of person who has no shame and bottom line. He can obtain a world tree bud through other methods or means, but all these methods and means will never include betraying his friends.
Silence, like a mountain, pressed Sean almost out of breath.
Bean sized beads of sweat have begun to appear on Sean's forehead.
"All right." With Xu Qing's opening again, the silent pressure suddenly disappeared without a trace, "I believe you really don't know In that case, let's make another deal. "
Xu Qing's words are full of a unique temptation, confusion and sex. Just like those demons in hell, they can always find the inner weakness of the interlocutor, and then erode each other's psychological defense bit by bit.
"What kind of deal?" But Sean, after all, can't easily give up this world tree bud.
"Allow me to scan this plane world." Xu Qing said, "then I will leave a beacon in the world. This beacon is not only a bridge between you and me, but also... Our transaction voucher. The former is my transaction requirement, while the latter is a necessary part of the transaction. If you don't agree, our transaction can't be established, and you can't use the bud of the world tree. "
"I hope you can explain two questions." Sean frowned and thought for a moment before he spoke.
"Excuse me." Xu Qing regained his relaxed attitude just like your childe.
"Why... Scan the world?" Sean asked the first question.
"This is the content of our transaction. I need... All the data of the world, but I am a very impatient person, so I won't spend a lot of time understanding all the structures of the world, including history, humanities, science and technology, so I can only get an understanding of the world through special means of scanning." Xu Qing thought for a moment. He seemed to organize the language. After a while, he said, "I said, I'm a businessman. Do you know what a businessman is? It's the kind of dealer who transports a special product from one place to another, but I sell special products between different planes. "
Speaking of this, Xu Qing pointed to the world tree bud in Sean's hand, and then continued: "just like your world, there is no world tree bud, I can bring you the world tree bud from other planes. And I also believe that your world must have something that other planes don't have, but I don't know enough about the world. I can't be sure what specialties your world has and can bring benefits to me, so I need to scan. "
"Similar to... Specialty survey?"
"Almost." Xu Qing shrugged, "I'm a plane businessman, trading goods with the specialties of plane world space. In my opinion, anything can be traded. Even your army, I also think it is a kind of material that can be traded. "
"The army can also be traded?" Sean raised his eyebrows. "How do you trade?"
"It depends on the situation. It is generally divided into employment and buyout." Xu Qing opened his mouth and explained, "if you hire me, I will hire this army from you to complete a task for me, and the distribution of booty, personnel war damage compensation, etc. will be settled before I hire And if it is a buyout, then how I want to use this army is my business. "
Sean nodded slightly, then continued to ask, "you just said that everything can be traded?"
"Yes." Xu Qing nodded, "technology, soul, power, law, knowledge and so on all belong to the scope of trading However, the value of these things also varies from person to person. For example, for a scientific researcher, the most valuable is his technology and knowledge, while for a saint, the most valuable is his soul With different values, the goods that can be traded are naturally different. "
"I see." Sean nodded again. "So the second question, what does a beacon mean?"
"Simply put, it's a transaction receipt." Xu Qing's answer this time is obviously much faster. Obviously, this question is not the first time he answered, "it's the same as you allow other caravans to trade in your city. This beacon is the proof that you allow me to trade at this level. Only after setting up beacons can I bring products that do not belong to the world into the world and make them work. Otherwise, only when the same rule allows, can the things I bring into the world work. "
"It's about the composition of the in place surface, isn't it?"
"Yes." Xu Qing nodded and highly appreciated Sean's ability to understand everything so quickly.
In different plane worlds, except that the two core laws of time and space remain unchanged, the power of other laws is actually high and low, and even some plane worlds will lack the power of other laws. One of the most famous is the element plane: for example, the fire element plane, in addition to the core laws of time and space, the highest upper law is flame, and there is no law related to water in this plane.
According to Xu Qing, if you want to bring, for example, the water of life to the level of fire element, and in order to ensure that the water of life can still play its role, not just a thirst quenching thing, you must set up a beacon on the level of fire element.
"However, once the beacon is set up, other people in this position can also trade with me. You are not the only one who has this power I must make this clear to you. " Xu Qing reminded again, "to set up a beacon, I must obtain the consent of a son of plane like you, but once the beacon is set up, any creature in this plane world is qualified to trade with me."
"Do you know who I am?" Sean blinked. He always thought his identity was well hidden.
"Of course, otherwise I can't find you directly." Xu Qing said with a smile, "but you can rest assured that I have arranged a causal force field around the house. It can be said that at the moment, the house has been completely stripped from this plane, and your boss can't hear the dialogue between us."
Xu Qing's words made Sean fall into meditation.
He always felt that Xu Qing's appearance had a very strong purpose. He could even say that the other party's words were seven truths and three falsehoods. He can obviously feel that the other party wants to scan the plane world, not just to understand that the world can be regarded as special products, but for other purposes, but he can't guess what Xu Qing really wants.
Even when the other party said at the beginning that he wanted him to provide information about Andrew's whereabouts, he felt that it was probably just an opening remark.
The only thing Sean can be sure of is that Xu Qing is really harmless to himself.
"What is the plane that can be regarded as your trading partner?" After a long silence, Sean couldn't figure out the purpose of the man named Xu Qing, so he turned to ask another question.
"According to the standard process, the object I can trade must be the plane world with my own will." Xu Qing seems to be considering the wording. This time, his answer is a little longer than the brewing time before. "Let's say, when all normal plane worlds are just born, there will be no plane will. The so-called plane will is a conscious body that gradually forms after countless years of development The plane like this, which has not yet given birth to the plane will, I call it the barren plane, that is to say, there will be no life on this plane at all, and there are only... Resources such as minerals. I can possess it at any time and then treat it as my trading product. Of course, if I have enough shelter energy. "
"Shelter energy?" Sean heard a new term.
"It's not easy to find such a deserted place, and even if you find it, someone may rob you. Don't you think I'm the only one?" Xu Qing smiled with self mockery, "I have today. To tell the truth, I have experienced a lot of training It's a little far away. Anyway, you simply think it's a storage space. Make sure I can bring such a plane into my storage space. "
Sean nodded and motioned Xu Qing to continue.
"... then, the plane that has given birth to the will, I call it the primary plane." Xu Qing thought for a moment and then said, "such a plane has begun to give birth to life, such as animals, plants, and even... Humans." After considering for a long time, Xu Qing used the term "human beings": "however, a plane like this is actually very weak. If I want to, I can erase such a plane will and include it in my trading list."
"You seem to have mentioned before that my plane is an advanced plane."
"Well, yes." Xu Qing nodded, "the reason why the primary plane is primary is that this plane has no self-protection ability at all. However, if this plane is allowed to continue to develop, then humans on this plane will give birth to their own civilization, perhaps with science and technology as the main force, magic as the main force, and even various strange energies as the main force For such low-level planes, I can't erase the plane will, but I can communicate with the plane will. According to different plane limit levels, I divide these planes into three levels. "
"If the growth limit of the potential plane is within the tenth order, I call it the first-order potential plane; If the limit of the potential plane is in the fifteenth order, I call it the second-order potential plane; The eighteenth level, I call it the third level plane Earth, I believe you should be no stranger? Today's earth is already a three-level plane after developing enough power to enter the Milky way. " Xu Qing said, "in fact, the growth limit of a level is not invariable. Very few special levels will have relatively large fluctuations."
Speaking of this, Xu Qing could not help frowning: "like the earth, the peak is a high-order plane. However, in the middle of a long history, the earth even degenerated to the level that can only be called the low level However, we all have a rule for plane businessmen, that is, we are not allowed to include the plane world that gave birth to plane businessmen in the transaction list However, even if I didn't become a face businessman at that time, I don't believe many people would dare to make an idea of the earth. "
"Why?"
"Because the earth once reached the level of legendary plane, even if it degenerated later, there are still very terrible old monsters."
Sean keenly noticed that Xu Qing had used new terms twice in a row: "what's the difference between high-level plane and high-level plane, and legendary plane?"
"The advanced plane refers to the plane world that has broken through the 18th level growth limit. Like the plane world you are now in, the growth limit has reached the 22nd level, so this is a very advanced plane. Even if you enter the rhythm of the plane war, it is generally difficult to conquer such a plane." Xu Qing shrugged, but he couldn't see his attitude towards the high-level plane. "The so-called high-level plane is an enhanced version of the high-level plane, which usually refers to the strong planes whose growth limit exceeds more than twenty-five orders. Basically, these planes have embarked on the road of plane war. After all, if you want to make a plane world a legendary plane, the only way is to plunder the original power of other planes through plane war. "
"Legendary plane?"
"Simply put, the growth limit of the potential plane is the high-order potential plane from the 18th to the 25th, and the high-order potential plane from the 26th to the 30th. Breaking through the thirtieth order is the legendary plane. " Xu Qing made a simple summary, "the growth limit of the plane is not just based on personal strength, but a very comprehensive consideration But it's too troublesome to explain this. You're not a noodle businessman, so you can't understand it. I'm too lazy to explain. "
Sean was a little stunned.
"Well, I have told you the answers to all the questions you want to know. Now, are you willing to trade with me?" Xu Qing still said with a smile, but his face showed a threat: I have wasted so much saliva to explain these plane knowledge to you. If you dare to refuse, I will not let you go.
"It doesn't sound bad to me." Playing with the tender buds of the world tree in his hand, Sean pondered for a moment and still chose to compromise, "but I think you should know that I am the son of the plane. If you do anything harmful to the plane..."
"Don't worry." Xu Qing's face showed a happy look. He stood up, patted Sean on the shoulder and said with a smile, "we face businessmen are the most trustworthy. We will never do anything to damage your face origin. After all, this is also our eating tool Moreover, I can assure you that you will not regret it in the future. Maybe in the near future, you can get incredible gains. "
"I hope so." Sean sighed helplessly. At the moment, he found that he had no choice from the beginning.
"Well, goodbye. I have a lot to do." Xu Qing waved to Sean, but before leaving, he still threw Sean a metal object. "Fantasy stone can change its shape according to your heart. Don't lose it. This is the only way you can get in touch with me."
"Everyone who deals with you?"
"How possible." Xu Qingqing glanced at Sean, "this thing is very expensive. Only a spokesman of the world's will like you can get it. After I set up the beacon, other people in the world may also be able to trade with me, but the transactions between me and them are basically a one-off deal, but unlike you, there are after-sales service and even other contacts. "
Speaking of this, Xu Qing thought a little and then said, "in fact, occasionally some people I admire will still have the possibility of contacting again, and maybe they can develop into old customers. But even so, I generally don't send out the fantasy stone, but communicate in another way Anyway, this thing is very expensive. Just be careful not to lose it. If it is picked up by others and your identity is exposed, it will not be fun. "
"It seems that you know a lot about the son of planes." Sean curled his mouth.
The son of the plane is the legal agent selected by the plane will. He is responsible for things that the plane will cannot handle. The core work content is to prevent the loss of the plane origin. However, because of the favor of the plane's will, all the plane's sons have a very strong fortune. As a person involved in the world, it can be said that they are joking with a cheating device. Therefore, the identity of all plane's sons cannot be easily exposed.
Once exposed, the son of the plane must change from a person involved in the world to a monitor. He can no longer intervene in all the affairs of the plane world, but also start the training and selection of successors. Once the new person involved in the world is selected, as the plane monitor of the old man, she must be separated from the plane world, just as gibriel had to leave after Sean officially took over.
Another reason why Xu Qing doesn't want Sean to become a monitor is that once Sean becomes a monitor from a person involved in the world, all the agreements he has made with Sean will expire, and the most important thing is that the beacon function will disappear.
"I've been in contact with several sons of planes before. You're not the first." Xu Qing said softly. It seems to remind him of something. His face is not very good-looking for a moment. "Anyway, our current transaction has been established. If there is anything you want to trade, come to me through the fantasy stone I'm short of time, so I'll be busy first. "
After that, before Sean could reply, Xu Qing's figure disappeared directly in front of Sean.
At the next moment, the causal force field that enveloped the whole room completely disappeared, and Sean's perception was completely restored at this moment.
He looked down at the bud of the world tree in his hand and found that the seed was still carefully protected by Sean. Everything told Sean that his communication with Xu Qing was not a dream. Although Sean still doubted Xu Qing's motives, after confirming that the world will did not communicate with him, that is, Xu Qing did not do anything detrimental to the world's original power, Sean decided not to pay attention to this strange businessman.
Sean thought that he and he had just made an ordinary deal, and he also believed that he would never have any contact with the businessman in his life. After all, he is the son of the plane and the emperor of the void empire. In addition to not unifying the whole plane world, he can do whatever he wants, and as long as he has enough time, whether it is in the wilderness or in the deep forest, a new world tree will eventually grow.
Time is on his side.
With this in mind, Sean turned to open the door and walked quickly towards Hitler's temporary house.
……
On the other hand, after leaving the void palace, Xu Qing also set up a beacon for the first time to ensure that the world had been connected with him, and then he began to run nonstop.
In almost one night's effort, Xu Qing had already traveled to many places in this plane.
But if Sean could walk with Xu Qing, he would find that all the places Xu Qing ran that night were where Andrew once appeared. It even includes the mysterious place where Sean communicated with the will of the world for the first time, as well as the former site of the floating island, which is now empty, and so on.
Obviously, Xu Qing did come after Andrew.
The last place he stayed was where Andrew and others left.
Standing in the position originally belonging to the Millennium covenant Empire, Xu Qing's face looked very serious: "is this smell... The surface of the abyss? It's really tricky. Those chaotic lunatics over there won't allow me to enter at will. Tut, Luo Cheng, Luo Cheng, you'll really make trouble for me. "
After talking to himself for a while, Xu Qingcai frowned and said in a deep voice, "you've been with me all night. Is there anything else you don't trust?"
A human figure composed entirely of black fog appeared in front of Xu Qing as his words fell.
The black fog soon shaped itself into Sean's appearance, but different from Sean's awe inspiring temperament, Sean composed of black fog has a natural indifference.
Sean, composed of black fog, is the world will of the miracle plane.
