Chapter 43 43. The Uninvited Guest Approaching the Player
Chapter 43 43. Uninvited guests approaching the player
In the obsidian space, Lulu saw Duncan running towards the mining area on the floating screen:
"Lord, I have a little question. Could you please answer it?"
"If you want to ask, just ask directly. In my palace, forget about your ink etiquette." Xifer spread his hands casually.
As expected, Lord Xifer doesn't care about meaningless red tape.
Lulu nodded respectfully and asked another question:
"The first step in the main task of building a flying fortress is mining. But a task like mining is not something that must be done by players, right?"
Xifer sighed, shook his head and said:
"Now the devils in the Nine Hells are not suitable for mining.
"The lowest level lemures have no brains at all and cannot distinguish between different ores and stones.
"Among the other weaker devils, the Bloated Devil is blind, and the little devil is too weak to mine. The Steel Devil, Legion Devil, and Barb Devil are all professional military personnel who have been transferred from their posts to dig without permission.
There are so many mines that it’s not suitable.”
The reason was that Xifer spent a whole second thinking of it on the spur of the moment. The real reason was to find some way to reward the players.
After all, if he was really a devil with high enough professionalism, he probably wouldn't have the chance to become Siffel's staff.
"It's a hell chariot. The number of people on it is unknown, and the creatures riding on it are unknown. It's expected that it won't be long before we meet players who are on the main mission!"
"I remember that the scope of activities of Wandering Mall is not in this area? Besides, there are usually no customers in the Bilian Iron Mining Area. Why are you going there at this time?" Lulu was a little flustered for a moment.
After knowing that the other party was a wandering mall, Xifeier also increased his vigilance.
Xiffel moved his fingers on the map, enlarging the red dot, and new information was marked.
At the edge of the map, a red dot has just appeared, and it is quickly approaching the location of the player's main mission, the Bismelting Iron Mine Area.
"Lord, what is this?" Lulu looked confused, "I remember that there are no devils active around here. I also issued a special order for my subordinates to avoid the Bilian Iron Mine today."
"Lord Xifer, at this rate, in 10 minutes at most, the players will come face-to-face with the unknown person on the hell chariot. What are we going to do?" Lulu was obviously panicked.
I am far behind, so I still need to learn more.
Lulu listened to Lord Xifer's words clearly and without any flaws.
A picture of a huge armored four-wheeled fighting vehicle is displayed on the page of the book.
No one will look down upon the mortals they meet in hell!
She also doesn't know much about the function and focus of the devil form.
"Wandering Mall?"
The members of the mall are a large group of wandering merchants, craftsmen and misfits who each operate different industries and sell goods. Whether they are devils or mortals, hags living in hell or even other beings, they may become their customers.
Just at this time, Xifer seemed to have discovered something.
In front of Syphiel, the bronze-covered "Book of Lords" was suspended in the air, and the yellowed pages showed the map of the player's birth point and the vicinity of the mining area.
MD, a group of profiteers, sells very expensive products, and they just like to raise the price.
The Hell Chariot is a magical vehicle driven by souls and is used for transportation and combat. Because of its large target and high energy level, it is specially marked as a red dot on the map.
Many mortals who can go to hell in flesh and blood and live in hell for a long time while alive are even more terrifying than devils!
Among these mortals, there may be adventurers trapped in hell due to accidents, but they are more likely to be extremely evil people who are the enemies of the world in their own material world, notorious cult leaders, or powerful spellcasters who have signed a contract with the devil.
who.
Sure enough, all the seemingly unreasonable details were the result of Lord Xifer's careful design. He was so wildly imaginative that he thought of questioning Lord Lord. He was really overestimating his abilities. Lulu couldn't help but think.
The so-called Wandering Mall is a market that travels around the "War Wilderness" on the first level of the Nine Hells. It is composed of multiple giant hell chariots and can freely travel between multiple material planes and hells.
"Wait a minute, besides the players, there are people approaching the Bilian iron ore area!"
Both Lulu and Xiphiel said the same name in unison.
Lulu had spent soul coins before to buy potions to heal injuries from profiteers in the wandering mall.
Xiphiel raised his eyebrows and tapped the red dot on the yellowed map with his fingertips.
"This model of Hell Chariot? A modified Demon Smasher? Is it possible? Is it possible? It's..."
There are real demons among businessmen, and there are even mortals living in hell.
"Lulu, do you know why Wandering Mall is able to thrive in the devil's territory? Do you know what the trump card of this mobile market is?"
"I don't know, please give me some advice, Lord."
Xifeier's originally smiling mouth flattened, his expression became more serious, and he gave the answer:
"It is said that the owner of Wandering Mall, Hama, the business lord who even bargained with the Duke of Hell, is the eyes and ears of the Lord of Nine Hells, serving as an intermediary and arbitrator in transactions with the Lord of Nine Hells!"
