Dimension Demon's Chat Group

Chapter 440 The Return of the Newcomer
Meanwhile, Sima Chengzhen has joined the White Jade Merchant Alliance on behalf of the Tang Ghost World.

He Jingfeng gave him the treatment of a junior alliance member and gave him an entry token, instructing him to choose carefully and not to waste the 10,000 Heavenly Coins.

Sima Chengzhen was overjoyed and immediately bowed solemnly to express his gratitude for the gift from the merchant alliance.

Afterwards, He Jingfeng led him and Zhang Chulan on a tour of the shops opened by the Business Alliance.

To be honest, the Baiyu Group is already powerful enough in the eyes of outsiders.

But to our surprise, the technology they displayed was just the tip of the iceberg. In the shops of Zhutian City, there were so many fantastical technological products!

Gazing at the futuristic ships in the miniature space, Zhang Chulan's eyes lit up, and he almost spent all the Heavenly Coins he had on several occasions.

Fortunately, it was him who came to visit this time. If it had been Feng Baobao, she probably wouldn't have had much of the Heavenly Coins left after this trip!

Coming to his senses, Zhang Chulan suppressed his excitement and turned to look at He Jingfeng beside him, saying:
"Brother Feng, I have a question."

"You said."

"Who exactly is the target customer group for these Star Destroyers and exploration ships?!"

"Hmm...you've stumped me with that question."

He Jingfeng thought for a moment and said, "For high-end products like this, there are indeed not many customers. So far, we only have two or three regular customers!"

Zhang Chulan blinked, asking curiously, "For example?"

He Jingfeng glanced at him, a half-smile on his face, and said, "You're asking that too?"

Zhang Chulan was taken aback upon hearing this, then scratched his head and chuckled awkwardly, "My goodness, Brother Feng, you've been talking too much!"

He Jingfeng smiled and said, "Speaking of which, I do have a big client I can introduce to you!"

"Oh?"

Zhang Chulan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, "May I ask who this expert is?"

He Jingfeng said leisurely, "The strongest carbon-based life form on Earth in the seventh century!"

Zhang Chulan's eyes lit up: "Emperor Taizong of Tang?!"

He Jingfeng looked at him in surprise and said, "You're quite knowledgeable!"

"of course!"

Zhang Chulan chuckled, and then a surge of excitement welled up inside him.

It was actually Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin!
As fellow descendants of the Yellow Emperor, cooperation is definitely not a problem; the only issue might be some ideological clashes.

But it's okay, they have plenty of ways to handle this kind of thing. We can just find common ground while reserving differences!
Just as Zhang Chulan was excitedly thinking this, he suddenly noticed that He Jingfeng's gaze towards him was somewhat strange.

Zhang Chulan's heart skipped a beat, and he asked cautiously:

"Brother Feng, why are you looking at me like that?"

"……nothing."

He Jingfeng pondered for a moment and said, "This Li Shimin may be somewhat different from the Li Shimin you know."

Zhang Chulan's heart skipped a beat: "How is it different?"

He Jingfeng honestly said, "He is a time traveler who traveled into Liu Shan's body."

Zhang Chulan: "..."

What kind of Zhihu male protagonist is this!
"So it's a Three Kingdoms world?"

"good."

"Wouldn't that be better?"

"A world ravaged by war is a better place for us to realize our grand ambitions!"

"You're too late, it's already been unified."

"..."

Zhang Chulan asked helplessly, "Brother Feng, what have you been doing all these years?"

He Jingfeng smiled but remained silent.

Not long after, the three left the shop and headed to the Treasure Pavilion.

During this process, they encountered many more group members. He Jingfeng, speaking from experience, introduced these group members to Zhang Chulan and Sima Chengzhen one by one.

Not only that, Han Li and Yan Chixia on the other side also 'ran into' many group members.

Out of their own interest, some group members inadvertently revealed the information that the city lord's surname was Lin, which sparked a brainstorming session among the two newcomers, who began to speculate about the relationship between Lin Yu and the city lord.

Putting aside this side quest, all the newcomers have gained quite a lot this time.

Yan Chixia went to the Divine Weapon Pavilion intending to order a batch of standard weapons, but upon seeing the cheaper Truth weapons, he decisively changed his mind and ordered a batch of standard rifles and enchanted bullets instead.

Of course, the cost of buying these things will definitely exceed the budget.

Fortunately, the City of All Heavens is all-encompassing and accepts everything. Yan Chixia's various magical powers, ghost sources, yin energy, and so on can all be exchanged for City of All Heavens Coins.

With a wave of his hand, he exchanged 30,000 Heavenly Coins in one go, making him the wealthiest among this batch of newcomers.

At the same time, Han Li also bought a lot of pills and medicinal herbs at the Treasure Pavilion, and then hurriedly left Zhutian City to return to his own world to try to form his core.

Of the six newcomers, only Gu Yi seemed the most relaxed, more like a tourist from next door than a newcomer to the city.

As they strolled around, Lin Yu couldn't stand it any longer, so he took the initiative to show himself in front of her.

Seeing the familiar, handsome young man before her, Gu Yi was not surprised at all, and immediately smiled and bowed:
"Your Majesty, we meet again!"

"Come on this!"

Lin Yu asked irritably, "Where's that old man?"

"How did the city entry permit I gave him end up in your hands?"

“It’s a long story!” Ancient One sighed. “Now that His Majesty has not appeared in that universe for a long time, the dark forces in the universe have risen again, and he simply cannot get away from it…”

What do you mean I can't get away!
Lin Yu, his face full of black lines, said, "Is it possible—and I mean possible—that the dark forces of that universe are now under my control?"

"..."

Gu Yi blinked, looking rather innocent, and said, "These are the exact words of another version of myself..." Was she implying she was wary of him?

Lin Yu's face darkened, then he said expressionlessly, "What else did he say?"

Gu Yi said solemnly, "He also said that he appreciates Your Majesty's kindness, but for now, he plans to focus his energy on training the next Supreme Master. He estimates that he will not be able to come here to pay his respects to Your Majesty until after he retires!"

"Humph!"

Lin Yu snorted coldly and said, "In my opinion, he's afraid that once he comes, he won't be able to leave!"

Gu smiled without saying a word, as if to say, "You already know, why ask?"
Lin Yu thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, if you don't want to come, you don't have to. It's the same whether you come or not!"

"There are many publicly available missions on the notice board at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion. Some of these missions are too advanced for ordinary residents of Zhutian City to complete."

Gu Yi said thoughtfully, "So that's why you invited the other me into the city?"

Lin Yu nodded and said, "I need some high-quality souls. Good or evil doesn't matter. As long as the soul is brilliant enough, it can meet the mission requirements."

"Dark wizards and evil creatures also count?"

"Of course!"

"I see!"

The Ancient One smiled and said, "Since it's about contributing to the expulsion of darkness, then both I and my other self are willing to serve Your Majesty!"

"very good!"

Lin Yu smiled with satisfaction and immediately waved his hand, assigning this permanent mission to Gu Yi.

Of course, this Ancient One only has the strength of the movie version, which is far from meeting Lin Yu's requirements, but it doesn't matter, she is now in close contact with the Whitebeard Ancient One.

Entrusting the task to her is the same as entrusting it to the Whitebeard Ancient One next door.

After the showdown, Lin Yu chatted with this Celtic version of the Ancient One for a few minutes, said "Have a nice visit," and then disappeared without a trace.

Gu Yi didn't mind and continued to wander around the City of the Gods. She bought some things that interested her and then returned to the Marvel universe with the mission Lin Yu had given her.

……

……

Time flies, and a day has passed in the blink of an eye.

After finding their favorite products, the six newcomers gradually chose to return.

Among them, the first to return were Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao from the world of "Under One Person".

The headquarters of NaDuTong, the chairman's office.

A flash of silver light, and the figures of Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao emerged from it.

But as soon as they appeared, they were locked onto by auras, and numerous laser beams were projected from all directions, casting countless red dots on their bodies.

Zhang Chulan was startled and quickly raised his hands, staring blankly at the bulletproof glass in front of him and the densely packed figures outside the glass.

"Chairman Zhao, don't scare me! What's going on here?"

"..."

Zhao Fangxu, who was in the lead, ignored Zhang Chulan and turned to look at the smartly dressed man in military uniform beside him.

"How about it."

"Sir, no abnormal source of infection has been detected. However, considering the current technical limitations, we recommend that you quarantine for thirty days first, and release them only after confirming that there are no abnormalities..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan immediately understood their meaning and said helplessly:
"Chairman Zhao, don't worry, the place I went to is very safe, there are absolutely no alien bacteria there!"

"Another world?"

Zhao Fangxu's heart skipped a beat. He immediately waved his hand to disperse everyone in the room and looked at Zhang Chulan, saying in a deep voice:

"Tell me, what's going on?"

"You don't know?"

Zhang Chulan said in surprise, "Judging from your posture, I thought Brother Feng had already told you everything!"

Zhao Fangxu shook his head and said, "Ever since you and Feng Baobao were swallowed by that silver light, I've been looking for He Jingfeng, but he didn't tell me where you went. He only said that when you come back, you'll know everything..."

Zhang Chulan said thoughtfully, "So that's why you've set up such a grand display and are waiting for my return here?"

Zhao Fangxu nodded and said, "That's right!"

Zhang Chulan thought for a moment, then raised his hand and tapped on the glass in front of him, saying with a smile, "Don't worry, Chairman Zhao, the place I'm going to is cleaner than the highest-security laboratory, so there's no need to use this for isolation!"

"As for the identity and background of that place, I'm not exaggerating, but someone of your rank might not be qualified to make contact with it alone..."

what? !

Zhao Fangxu's pupils contracted sharply, and after a moment of silence, he slowly said:
"Xiao Zhang, do you know what you're saying?"

Zhang Chulan replied confidently, "Of course!"

Zhao Fangxu stared intently at Zhang Chulan and said, "You're a smart man, so I won't ask any more questions. I'll just ask one—can you take responsibility for what you've said?"

Zhang Chulan glanced at Feng Baobao beside him, and without hesitation grabbed her hand and lifted her up with him.

"Not only me, but Bao'er and I can both stand by this statement!"

"..."

Feng Baobao blinked, glanced at Zhang Chulan, and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Yes, yes, I'll take responsibility!"

Zhao Fangxu looked at the two of them with a serious expression, finally realizing the gravity of the situation.

He knew Feng Baobao's secret and how important she was to Zhang Chulan. Since Zhang Chulan was willing to involve Feng Baobao in the matter, he must have absolute confidence in it!
After a moment's thought, he finally made his decision and slowly said, "Okay!"

"I'll go through the company's channels and contact the higher-ups, but even with my guarantee, it's not certain that a very important person will come forward."

"Zhang Chulan, if you really have some chips, you'd better bring out a few first, so as not to waste everyone's time."

"A bargaining chip?" Zhang Chulan pondered for a moment, then slowly met Zhao Fangxu's serious gaze and said, "The truth and secret behind the technological explosion of the Baiyu Group..."

"I wonder if this stake is heavy enough?"
