Chapter 647: Chapter 648 Adventurers’ Market_1

"If I remember correctly, they should have already completed the Adventure Pact."

"Adventure Pact?"

"What’s that strange thing?"

Liu Wenli was somewhat puzzled; it sounded quite unusual, and if those adventurers were really as Feng Yuan described, then it wouldn’t be easy to restrain their actions.

"It’s a common agreement related to adventurers initiated by the major powers, and it has basically passed in most parts of the Omeilia Region."

"It stipulates that adventurers must not behave recklessly within the Lord’s cities; it also ensures that those Lords protect the adventurers’ interests. Anyway, it doesn’t have much to do with us."

"Why would they do that?"

Liu Wenli was somewhat perplexed. She thought that the major powers wouldn’t make an effort for nothing, as such a widely-encompassing agreement seemed far from easy to implement. Feng Yuan chuckled and said,

"Because they also have their adventurers, ah, some Nobles who are not content with a quiet life... after all, this threshold is much lower than that of a wandering practitioner."

"Wandering practitioners require sufficient combat capability, and those who can meet this requirement often have a high status within their own families; for adventurers, it’s different, a group of like-minded individuals is enough."

"Plus, there are benefits; at least with more adventurers around, there’s a greater chance that rare resources will appear in the market."

As Feng Yuan spoke, he walked forward to look at the goods displayed at the stalls, most of which were fish harvested from nearby waters. Feng Yuan only glanced at them briefly before losing interest.

With Delong Tower around, did he need to buy fish with money? He understood that seafood was delivered right to his door. After walking past a few stalls and only finding various food ingredients and raw materials, Feng Yuan said with some regret,

"All such uninteresting stuff..."

"Looking for something more exciting? The Adventurers’ Market is that way; as long as you have money."

A passing guard overheard Feng Yuan’s complaints and casually pointed in a direction. Just as Feng Yuan turned to look, he saw Delong Tower, which had been obscured by him, and the guard was startled. After carefully observing Feng Yuan and his party, the guard hurriedly slinked away in panic.

"There really might be... huh? Where did he go?"

Feng Yuan looked around, puzzled. The guard who had given directions had completely disappeared. Had he not been so certain of his own situation, he would have thought he was hallucinating.

Guo Huai glanced at Delong Tower, which was playfully handling a water ball, and said helplessly,

"Scared away by Delong Tower."

"He must have taken part in that battle, might even be one of those who were stationed on the city walls."

Liu Wenli glanced at the city wall, which was missing a large chunk, where civilians were busily repairing it. Delong Tower was unresponsive to the people’s conversation, fearing to provoke Delong Tower by accident, Mo Ling quickly changed the subject,

"Let’s go see what’s different about the Adventurers’ Market~"

"Actually, if we head further, there should be other things on sale."

As Liu Wenli spoke, she looked towards the jewelry store on the corner. Hua Yiyou glanced back at the inner city section and said,

"Do you mean that those Nobles also come here to buy food and daily necessities?"

"That’s for certain. Apart from the Lord’s Mansion, I don’t believe those Nobles enjoy an exclusive supply of goods. Those lesser Nobles would definitely choose to come here to buy cheaper household goods."

Liu Wenli said with great certainty. This kind of thing was not uncommon in the Divine Land Region, or it could be considered the norm. Those declining families, to maintain their last shred of dignity, would surely choose to secretly send someone to buy cheap food and daily necessities, using the saved money to maintain appearances.

"Indeed, so many interesting things~"

"Hey! This might be useful for you."

Feng Yuan said as he picked up a herb that seemed to have been freshly harvested and spoke to Wei Fangwu. Guo Huai glanced at it and said,

"It looks like it could replace Dongling Grass, take a look..."

Wei Fangwu hesitated, but after thinking it over, he said,

"Could you pay for me first? As for the specifics..."

"Just give me something of equivalent value when we get back to town."

Feng Yuan waved his hand, unconcerned, and as he bargained with the stall owner, Wei Fangwu’s lazy expression revealed a hint of a smile. Liu Wenli, with Amon in tow, pulled Wei Dingwu away from the group to look at the wares being sold by the hawkers around. They didn’t plan to buy anything, so the language barrier wasn’t a major issue.

Hua Yiyou looked enviously at Liu Wenli, who was explaining something to Wei Ding Wu. Besides Guo Huai and Feng Yuan, perhaps she was the only one who could discern the uses of those items. However, what he didn’t realize was that Liu Wenli was simply showing Wei Ding Wu the craftworks. As for Spiritual Medicine, the vast differences between the two continents were no joke.

In these days, there were no merchants that traded between the two places. If she were able to recognize those Spiritual Medicine and Materials unique to the Omeilia Region, that would be truly surprising.

"Here you go."

After paying, Feng Yuan handed the herb to Wei Fangwu, swept a glance over the group with some puzzlement, and asked,

"Where are Liu Wenli and the others?"

"They’ve run off to look at other things. What about it?"

Guo Huai looked at Feng Yuan with some bewilderment, scratching his head while Feng Yuan said in confusion,

"Can they recognize those Spiritual Medicine and Materials?"

"Why couldn’t they?"

"Without the system, how many could you recognize?"

Feng Yuan glanced at Guo Huai and said in a low, irritated tone. Guo Huai was taken aback, then realized that without the system, even if he had studied Spiritual Medicine and Materials in the modern era, he might not be able to identify all the plants here. After all, the teaching materials in the Divine Land Region would not list all the Spiritual Medicine and Materials from the Omeilia Region.

"Just looking at the craftworks, have you made your purchase?"

Liu Wenli, pulling Wei Ding Wu along, came over and glanced at Feng Yuan, who nodded and asked,

"Did anything catch your eye?"

"Nothing. Those are just things dug out from the ground, uninteresting, or rather, likely to be troublesome."

Liu Wenli calmly said. The common people in the Divine Land Region rarely explored those ruins for a reason: the items within those ruins could possess strange effects. Bringing home an item with a curse could easily lead to the destruction of a household or an entire village, which is why most people in the Divine Land Region kept their distance from these ancient sites.

"Isn’t it more interesting to dig stuff out from the ground? At least they have mysterious effects~"

Liu Wenli glanced at Feng Yuan and said, not in the best of spirits,

"Let’s not. I guess you’re the only one daring enough to mess with those things."

"Who says so?"

Feng Yuan pointed at the adventurers who were purchasing relics, who carefully examined them before quickly buying. Guo Huai looked somewhat puzzled at the mini-pig behind him and asked,

"Isn’t that a hugging pig?"

Watching the pink little pig cling to the oval-shaped relic stone handed over by the adventurer, without letting go, Guo Huai knew it must be something valuable.

"Hugging pig? What’s that?"

Mo Ling asked with some curiosity. Guo Huai glanced at his system information and said,

"A Spirit Beast that grows in Omeilia. Although its power isn’t much to speak of even among Good Level beasts, it’s highly skilled at finding things that are useful to itself. It might not be able to talk, but judging by how long it holds onto something, you can tell the degree of its usefulness."

Seeing the hugging pig still clutching the stone firmly, the vendor looked frustrated, while the adventurer proudly walked away with the hugging pig. Liu Wenli watched this scene with interest and said,

"Looks quite fun."

"It’s not bad, but the hugging pig is a rather rare Spirit Beast, and even in Omeilia, not many people can own one."

Feng Yuan said calmly. Liu Wenli nodded and replied,

"Without that, this marketplace wouldn’t be able to operate."

"But do the others just let him do that?"

Liu Wenli was somewhat puzzled as she watched that person openly using the hugging pig to test those enigmatic relics, with the vendors showing no particular reaction.

"Because they don’t know the specific uses, and the hugging pig’s usefulness is generally for the owner and the pig itself, it’s not so clear for others. Therefore, raising the price or anything like that is futile."

"If it scares the buyer away, and it turns out to be something the hugging pig specifically needs then..."

Feng Yuan said, revealing a sly smile. The hugging pig was no common Spirit Beast in Omeilia, and missing the opportunity meant that items specifically for the hugging pig would be hard to sell, especially since those people never stayed in one place for long. If they didn’t sell now, who knows how long it would be before the next person with a hugging pig came along.
