Chapter two hundred and ninety-eight meeting old friends
The fourth floor of the underground city is the strongest touchstone for the younger generation of the demon clan.
Wang Chen gathered his thoughts and finally walked towards the city.
After walking a few steps, Wang Chen's heart moved.
There seems to be something missing in such an underground city.
After taking a closer look, he discovered that on the fourth underground floor, the dome was extremely high, but as high as it was, there was no fighting arena.
The place that should have belonged to the fighting arena has been replaced by a large sapphire-like lake.
So, how does the fourth level screen those who enter the fifth level?
And why did the genius of the fourth level fall?
Remembering that he had specifically asked Hei Huang just now, but he actually said nothing with disapproval, Wang Chen cursed.
What's even more outrageous is that Hei Huang is actually sleeping hiding in his bracelet at the moment.
You just have to explore on your own.
Wang Chen walked towards the city center.
Unlike the third floor, there are almost no places for consumption here.
Inns, restaurants, and consignment shops were all gone.
The huge attic-style buildings are either empty with no trace of anyone, or they have strange words like "Destroy the Sky, Meteor, Flying Kill" written on them.
Although the door was wide open, the atmosphere was solemn and strange, and Wang Chen had no interest in walking inside.
"Brother, please stay."
When walking to the southeast corner of the city, someone seemed to have noticed his presence and walked out of the building behind him.
Based on the direction from which the sound came, Wang Chen instantly judged that the speaker came from a building with a single word "black" written on it.
Turning around and looking, both sides were stunned.
It turned out that the person speaking was actually Qinghong, who had enthusiastically talked to me when he and Ximen Youqian first entered the arena, and claimed to be a dark intermediary.
"Is it you?"
Ximen Youqian was too eye-catching, and Qinghong instantly recognized Wang Chen's identity.
"It's been less than half a year since we last said goodbye, and you've reached the fourth floor so quickly. Brother, you're really awesome."
Qinghong's smile made people feel very comfortable, and at the same time, he cupped his hands towards Wang Chenyi.
"Brother Jiang Yu, do you know that it's taboo to wander around on the fourth floor like this? If you don't mind, why don't you come and sit in my dark hall and let me introduce you to you?"
Qinghong is as enthusiastic as ever.
"Thank you." Remembering that this person gave him a brief introduction when he first arrived at the arena, Wang Chen felt somewhat fond of him, so he nodded and thanked him.
Now the two of them walked into the attic-style building.
Inside the building, stone walls and wooden tables.
The crystal jug drips green wine, emitting a fragrant aroma.
Qinghong diligently poured Wang Chen a glass of fruit wine that the demon clan often drank.
"I didn't expect to meet again so soon."
Qinghong poured herself a glass and shook her head.
"Destined."
Wang Chen responded casually, and then found that Qinghong was the only one in the dark hall. Thinking of what he had seen and heard along the way, he couldn't help but ask.
"Just now you said it was taboo for me to walk around on the fourth floor. What do you mean?"
"Brother Jiang Yu has just arrived at the fourth floor and doesn't know what he knows. All the areas on this fourth floor have already been divided up by the major forces. Wandering around in the major spheres of influence will be regarded as a serious provocation."
Qinghong Road.
"Provocation? Doesn't this place have the will of the Tongtian Demon Emperor, so we can't kill at will?"
Wang Chen wondered.
"That's right. Anyone who makes a move in this area will be killed by Emperor Nian. But I don't know. The reason why the fourth floor is also called the Arena, but there is no venue, is because the Emperor
Thoughts will transport people to different spaces and undergo various trials to select those who can go down to the fifth level. In the final analysis, it is still a competition between talented people."
"In other words, those who can get to the fifth level will be called overlords?"
Wang Chen frowned.
"That's basically correct." Qinghong thought for a while and said.
"However, although various different spaces are created by Emperor's Mind, they do not prohibit fighting between trialists. Therefore, if you have a grudge with others, you must be careful in the different spaces."
"As a newcomer, Emperor's Mind will arrange a trial within one day after you set foot on this level. This trial is very important to you. In the trial, you will not be created by all Emperor's Mind.
Kill the creature, and then you will understand the true meaning of the trial."
"That's it." Wang Chen had an idea in his mind.
"Of course, although different spaces are extremely dangerous, as long as you act carefully and enjoy the resources of the fourth level, there are many talented people who can even become overlords. I also sincerely hope that Brother Jiang Yu can become an overlord."
"But now I sincerely invite Brother Jiang Yu to join the Black Hall. What do you think?" Qinghong said with a smile.
"Join the Black Hall?" Wang Chen was confused.
"What does the Black Hall do?" he asked.
Qinghong seemed to have been prepared.
"The first thing to make clear is that Black Hall is not a force, it is just an intermediary agency. It can be as small as finding objects and collecting intelligence, or as large as killing people and exterminating clans. As long as you are willing to find Black Hall as an intermediary, Black Hall will dare to release your mission. As for
Whether anyone will take over this mission is another matter."
"Of course, this also depends on whether the rewards of the mission are attractive enough. Those who are reluctant to spend a lot of money can only spend the agency fees of Heitang in vain."
"A person who becomes a Black Hall becomes a Black Butler. He can choose to perform any Black Hall mission. After completing the task, he can directly receive the promised reward from the employer. If the employer regrets it, the Black Hall will dispatch black criminals to kill him at all costs.
Kill."
"However, Black Butler needs to pay a deposit to perform the task. If the task cannot be completed, the deposit will not be returned."
After saying that, Qinghong looked at Wang Chen with burning eyes.
After all, this is an intermediary agency, which sounds harmless to me. But of course Wang Chen will not agree so simply.
"After becoming Black Butler, besides receiving missions, what benefits do I get?"
Wang Chen raised his head and said.
"Heitang may be one of the choices for the geniuses in the underground city, but in the outside world, he is an extremely mysterious and powerful existence. If you can become the Black Butler, no matter what family you are, they will look up to you, and Heitang will not accept it.
Any mission related to Black Butler, and even when necessary, necessary information will be provided to Black Butler."
Qinghong Road.
"Sounds good, but why would the Black Hall set up a branch here? Does it mean that after receiving a mission here, it has to go back to the ground level to perform the mission?"
Wang Chen can guarantee that as long as he leaves the underground city and reaches the outside world, his whereabouts will be known in an instant and he will become a street rat, or even be hunted by the demon king. If this is true, performing the task will be a burden, and he has no interest in joining the Black Hall.
Qinghong smiled and said: "Brother Jiang Yu, don't underestimate Heitang. There are four teleportation arrays on the fourth floor of the underground city. One of them is controlled by Heitang. With this teleportation array, Black Butler can teleport out instantly and carry out tasks.
."
"Teleportation array?" Wang Chen's heart moved.
Although he can disguise himself through a mask, the demon cards in the arena cannot be faked. Even if the official cannot track the demon cards, when passing through the entrances of each layer, as long as the guards check them, he will be discovered immediately.
If there is a teleportation array to go out, it seems to save him from worries.
"Okay, I'll join the Black Hall."
Wang Chen pondered for a moment and said.
"Fortunately, the Black Hall has gained another powerful Black Butler."
Qinghong smiled while complimenting Wang Chen. As the black butler he had won over, if Wang Chen performed well, how could Qinghong benefit less?
Wang Chen didn't take Qinghong's compliment seriously. If the Chi Huo who plotted against him on the third level could be considered as average on the fourth level.
At this moment, he is still far from the average level here.
You must break through the eighth level of nirvana as soon as possible, otherwise you will not be able to gain a foothold on the fourth floor.
At that moment, Qinghong took out a black ring and said seriously.
"One thing I want to explain to Brother Jiang Yu is that after joining the Black Hall, you cannot do anything detrimental to the Black Hall. At the same time, you cannot join other dark intermediary organizations. Otherwise, you will be severely punished or even killed. I wonder if you can
Have any objections?"
Wang Chen thought for a while, he was not from the Demon Clan, and he was not sure how long he would stay in the Demon Clan. It was nothing more than managing his own background. If it weren't for the Black Hall's teleportation array, he wouldn't even have any interest in joining the Black Hall.
This kind of rule has no restrictive effect on him at all, so he nodded in agreement.
"In this case, we are considered to be members of the Black Hall. Please bring in your demonic power, Brother Jiang Yu."
Qinghong said as he handed over the dark ring.
As the demonic power simulated by the ancestral energy penetrated into it, the dark ring seemed to record the fluctuations of his demonic power.
"Cheers to our first black butler in Dongjing in the past three years." Qinghong happily raised the fruit wine.
Bang.
Just when the cups in the hands of the two people, who each wanted what they needed, touched each other,
I heard the door being pushed open violently, and a panicked voice sounded.
“Something big happened!“
A figure flashed outside the door. It was a fat man with pigtails. Although he looked panicked, he rushed in very quickly.
