(Second Update) 359: Chapter 361: To Brick City!

(Second Update) At this moment, at the entrance of Brick City.

Tang Zhong looked up at the scene in front of him, bustling with people everywhere.

There were not only people from Xuan Country visiting Xuanjing City for tourism but also foreigners who had come to Xuan Country from other nations.

His purpose for this visit was to investigate Brick City; he came to see if there were any other Origin Stones.

This matter had not been reported to Dragon Group; for now, it was best that he was the only one aware of it.

The more people knew, the higher the risk of panic.

After buying a ticket.

Tang Zhong ascended onto Brick City.

From a distance, he could see the majestic beauty of distant mountain ranges—indeed, Brick City was truly beautiful.

However, now was not the time to admire the scenery.

Tang Zhong held the Origin Stone in his hand.

Since the Origin Stone was found here, if he wanted to find out whether there were any Origin Stone deposits in this area, he needed to rely on the resonance between Origin Stones.

Energy is attracted to energy, which meant that Origin Stones could also attract each other.

With the Origin Stone in hand.

Tang Zhong walked along the top of Brick City, resembling a Geomancer.

The people around him, seeing Tang Zhong like this, kept their distance, thinking him some sort of charlatan.

Tang Zhong paid them no mind, focusing on his own search.

He discovered that when he placed the particles of the Origin Stone in the center of the box, the stone did not budge.

Tang Zhong did not believe it and continued to walk forward.

Along the way, people looked at Tang Zhong as if he were a fool.

“Friend…

what are you doing?” Suddenly, a female voice rang out.

Tang Zhong had no intention of engaging, but at that moment, a beautiful girl appeared in front of him.

She looked to be only about sixteen years old, wearing a white dress, with slightly curly hair and pale skin – a Caucasian.

She popped up and immediately stared at Tang Zhong’s box.

“Oh, friend, are you a Geomancer?” the girl asked.

Tang Zhong immediately stashed the box away, looked at the Caucasian girl, and said, “No!”

Then, sizing up the girl, he noticed she was wearing internationally limited edition clothes, with diamond necklaces on her wrist and neck.

This woman was surely not ordinary, and the girl, with her good looks, seemed like a living, breathing sprite.

“Then what are you?” the girl said with a smile, revealing her teeth.

“I saw that you had a rock inside, thought you could tell fortunes!”

“I can’t!” said Tang Zhong, turning to leave.

“Hey, friend, could you take me with you?

It’s my first time in Brick City, and I don’t know my way around.

Could you help me?” the girl said.

Tang Zhong was about to leave when he realized the girl had already blocked his path.

“No can do,” Tang Zhong said.

“Please help me, I just asked someone else, but no one would help me, you’re the only one who’s talked to me!” the girl pleaded, her eyes welling up with tears, looking as if they were about to spill over.

Tang Zhong looked away, unable to bear it.

He put the Origin Stone away, then facing the girl, he said, “Alright, I’ll help you!”

“Big brother, thank you so much!” the girl said.

“Where are your parents?” Tang Zhong asked, noticing the girl seemed to be alone.

But surely she couldn’t have come to Xuan Country on her own; she must have family with her.

“My parents…

They’re elsewhere, I came here alone!” the girl said.

“Then why are you here alone?” Tang Zhong asked.

“I…

I just came out to play.

My parents are always at work.

My name is Lillian, what’s yours?” the girl asked with a smile.

“Tang Zhong…!”

“Come play with me!” Lillian looked at Tang Zhong eagerly.

“Alright!” said Tang Zhong.

Though his mission was to search for Origin Stones, it was obvious that this girl had run out on her own.

It would be fine to accompany her for a bit.

“That’s wonderful!” Lillian laughed.

“Big brother, when you come to our country, visit us.

Our country is Tansis!”

There could be swindlers on Brick City.

It would be terrible if Lillian were deceived.

“However, we need to establish some ground rules.

You can follow me, but you must not interfere with what I’m doing!” Tang Zhong said.

“Don’t worry, big brother, I promise not to get in your way!” Lillian assured him.

“Let’s go, then!” Tang Zhong said.

He then took out the Origin Stone and began to sense the presence of other Origin Stones around him.

But he felt no presence of Origin Stones; instead, he detected a few unsettling auras nearby, aimed directly at them.

Tang Zhong immediately tensed up, put away the Origin Stone, and scanned the surroundings.

With the throng of chattering people, it was nigh impossible to locate the sources of those auras—it was harder than reaching heaven.

Moreover, he could not tell whether these auras were from spies or something else.

Right away, Tang Zhong grabbed Lillian’s hand and said, “Come on, let’s get out of here!”

Lillian, who was smiling before, did not resist when Tang Zhong pulled her along.

Tang Zhong led Lillian toward a less crowded area.

“Big brother, what are we doing here?” Lillian kept asking.

“Don’t ask so many questions.

Didn’t you want to see interesting places?

I’m taking you there right now!” Tang Zhong said.

He was unsure whether the hidden forces in the shadows were spies or something else; he didn’t want Lillian to know.

In Brick City, there were always some places that only staff were allowed to enter.

Tang Zhong looked around to make sure no one was watching, then swiftly picked up Lillian, jumped lightly, and like a nimble monkey, leapt inside.

The inside was still a wall, but deserted, and the noise faded away.

Lillian was startled, not expecting such a turn of events.

“Big brother, where are you taking me?”

“Quiet, be careful!” Tang Zhong led Lillian forward, running.

The walls ahead were a bit dilapidated, no longer as splendid as before, and most importantly, they were deserted.

Soon, Tang Zhong stopped, set Lillian down from his back, turned around to face the rear, and said coldly, “Show yourself, whoever you are!”

Lillian was puzzled: “Big brother, what are you talking about?”

Just then, from behind, they could see two or three people in black robes appear, carrying long swords on their backs.

Tang Zhong frowned tightly upon seeing them: “These people, aren’t they ninjas?

What are they doing here?”
