Warning! The evil god's minions are invading the eerie dungeon.

Qi Xie wandered among the crowd, often listening in on groups discussing things in a circle, and frequently asking questions of certain people.

Unfortunately, although some information about the city was gathered, no information was obtained regarding the final fragment of the Night Wanderer.

"Where are there any unusual phenomena or particularly dangerous places? Why are you asking this? Even if such places exist, no one would know about them, because everyone who knew about them is dead." A man in his thirties with dyed blond hair looked at Qi Xie with suspicion as he answered the question.

This was the thirteenth person Qi Xie had asked, and the answer was similar to the previous ones.

As expected, relying on this needle-in-a-haystack approach to ask questions was too difficult... Qi Xie sighed slightly, not too disappointed:

"Who knows, maybe those dangerous places hide rewards of equal value?"

As he spoke, he prepared to leave.

The blond-haired man rolled his eyes and said:

"Are you looking for something? Perhaps I can offer some assistance."

"Oh?"

Qi Xie stopped in his tracks.

"I have a special sealed artifact that even the Traveler System can't recognize. It can predict the direction of good fortune for its holder. Do you need it? It's a truly valuable item!"

Qi Xie's eyes flickered, and he was secretly alarmed:

"The system can't detect it? A special type of ancient relic?"

After thinking for a moment, and with the mindset that it wouldn't cost any money to just take a look, Qi Xie said:

"Really? Is it that amazing? Show it to me."

The blond-haired man immediately put on a smile and pulled a dusty crystal ball from his pocket, but the place inside the ball where there should have been an ornament was replaced by a wobbly compass.

Qi Xie's slightly reddish eyes swept over the crystal ball, and his lips twitched slightly.

What a load of crap, relics from the ancient world!

Unlike his bronze plaque and mysterious ritual dagger, that thing was easily seen through, and there wasn't even a trace of black mist mixed with blood.

That wasn't even a sealed object; it was a mechanical structure devoid of any strange energy!

No wonder this guy said the system couldn't recognize it! It was exposed as soon as the system recognized it!

"Mysterious ghost, please foretell for me where the person before me will seek what he is looking for?"

The swaying pointer suddenly began to spin, and after a moment of swinging, it pointed in a certain direction, accompanied by a low, weak, and ethereal whisper:

"East..."

Qi Xie closed his eyes and rubbed his temples.

It looks pretty convincing...

The blond man chuckled, looked up at Qi Xie, and said in a deep voice:

"How about it? You see? This is a good item, definitely worth the price of a level three sealed item. If you want it, I can sell it to you for only three thousand Weird Points."

Qi Xie smiled.

I'm so angry.

They were actually quite conscientious; they didn't scam much, only three thousand.

Of course, this figure is not much for travelers; for ordinary people, it is equivalent to 300,000 or more.

Those who have made it this far have accumulated some wealth; three thousand strange points are at most a painful expense.

This was clearly not because the blond-haired man had a change of heart and lied about so much. Rather, if he had lied any more, the other party would have been desperate enough to chase him down and fight him to the death. For most people of this level of strange traveler, this amount was something they could grit their teeth, curse a few times, and tolerate.

This is the general situation.

But Qi Xie is clearly not among them.

He looked at the blond-haired man with a smile:

"Actually, I also know divination and can see people's fortunes. Do you believe it?"

"you?"

The blond-haired man looked him up and down a few times, then sneered:

"Don't be ridiculous. If you could predict the future, would you need to buy this stuff from me?"

You don't believe me?

The blond-haired man pointed to himself:

"Why don't you take a look at my future fortune?"

Qi Xie stared at him intently for a few moments:

"You will soon suffer a bloody disaster."

The blond-haired man was now bewildered, doubting whether Qi Xie truly possessed any skills, so he pressed for an answer:

How close?

Before he could finish speaking, Qi Xie delivered a punch to his face like a cannonball:

"Now."

boom--!

The blond-haired man was suddenly sent flying, crashing through a wall and rolling twice on the ground, his face covered in blood.

Upon hearing the loud noise, everyone instinctively turned their gaze in that direction.

Qi Xie didn't care at all, stepped over the hole the blond-haired man had made, and grabbed the man by the collar:

"You idiot, didn't you even consider the possibility that someone might have the skills to discern right from wrong?"

The blond man, after taking a punch from Da Yunjing, became obedient and answered with a terrified expression:

"No, I don't know if it's a sealing artifact. No, I've heard it's useful, and the direction it pointed in by chance was indeed in my favor, but I don't understand these things, I really don't..."

His eyes darted around, looking around, as if he wanted to use the onlookers to escape his predicament.

But at that moment, he saw Qi Xie raise his fist again.

He snapped his eyes back to the present and dared not look around again.

"If you lie again, I'll throw you out of here and put you on a bungee jump."

Qi Xie smiled and said:

"What's going on with the pointer and the sound?"

The blond youth's lips moved slightly, and he honestly said:

"The pointer is controlled by a magnet underneath, and the sound is produced by a miniature recorder..."

"Then why were you recording the east side on the tape recorder? What's in the east side?" Qi Xie raised his fist to his ear, making the blond-haired youth dare not have the slightest wicked thought.

The blond-haired youth swallowed hard. "I'm not sure, but I suspect there's something wrong there."

"Reason?" Qi Xie tilted his head.

"Most people who live too far east in the city have disappeared, and no information has been sent out."

The blond-haired man gave a fawning, obsequious smile:

"So I wasn't wrong, you were looking for places that might be unusual or dangerous."

Qi Xie was amused by his shamelessness.

This guy clearly thinks it's best if those who were scammed die in the east, so they won't come back to find him.

Even if you realize you've been scammed on the way back, and come back to find him, scamming him out of 3,000 weird points wouldn't warrant killing him.

However, if Qi Xie fails to see through the other party's lie, he will unpreparedly step into the territory of a dangerous entity.

Judging from the insect hive he encountered underground in the market, there are indeed strange entities within this instance that could threaten him if he were ambushed.

"What's going on with those two...?"

Why did you suddenly attack?

"What kind of time is this for internal strife among our own people...?"

The whispers among the onlookers and the comments in the live stream were similar, since not all the shots in the live stream were focused on Qi Xie.

"You know what? I don't despise your behavior, because I'm shameless too, and I'm too lazy to pretend to be something I'm not."

Qi Xie smiled, grabbing the blond man by the collar with one hand and patting the dust off his collar with the other.

"Huh? Right, right, hahaha, everyone's just looking out for themselves..."

A look of joy appeared in the blond man's eyes, who felt that the other person was under pressure from the onlookers and did not want to kill in public.

At this moment, Qi Xie suddenly changed the subject:

"So, this is basically dogs fighting, the bastards eating the bastards~"
