Naveltri sat down to one side and started chatting with a succubus.
"Are they really being controlled?" Thousand Hands looked at their performance and felt something was wrong. William was also puzzled. "Generally speaking, people controlled by succubi react very stiffly. Although they have some succubus aura, they don't seem to have any problems with their bodies or minds."
"Yes, what exactly is going on?" Senju was also puzzled. What was happening to this world? He and William exchanged glances, raising their holy swords defensively. "Don't you know these are all demons?"
“We know,” the men nodded, “but the succubi here are different; this is actually a shop that makes people dream.”
“Indeed, this is your first time here, sir,” a succubus stepped forward. She was dressed very provocatively, but her words were quite novel. “We succubi and the male adventurers of this town coexist and thrive together.”
relation."
"Huh?!" Senju was surprised, and the people around him smiled knowingly. "Not bad."
The succubus continued her explanation, "Many adventurers live in the stables, so the men usually accumulate a lot of men, but other adventurers are sleeping around them, so they dare not do anything."
The group of people nearby nodded solemnly. Were these the adventurers sleeping in the stables? How pitiful!
"Furthermore, if you dare to make a move on a female adventurer next to you, you will be immediately discovered by other adventurers and become the target of everyone's attacks. It wouldn't be surprising if the female adventurer you want to attack used a hidden short sword to cut you off instead," the succubus said, gesturing as she spoke, while a group of men next to her clutched their crotches.
"Could it be?!" William seemed to understand. Those around him smiled when they saw the change in William's expression. The succubus nodded as well. "That's right. We can make male adventurers have very enjoyable dreams. Although they will absorb some of their life essence, we will control it to a level that will not affect their daily life and adventures."
“Indeed, it is because of the existence of these succubus ladies that there is much less conflict in the town,” the male adventurers around them said, tears of emotion streaming down their faces.
"Uh..." Senju was speechless for a moment, then looked at William next to him, who was equally speechless. "Forget it, let's leave here."
"Wait, guests, here are two coupons. You're welcome to come anytime," the succubus said, handing over two receipts. "We can customize all kinds of dreams here. Just fill in the dream you want on the survey form, and we can make it. You two must try it!"
"Oh," the two of them said, looking embarrassed as they walked out with the receipts. "We absolutely can't tell anyone about what happened here, it was a promise."
After leaving the encirclement, the two continued forward, but looking back, they exclaimed, "Hey, where's Naveltri?"
“He wouldn’t be going to…” William was speechless for a moment. “Never mind, let’s investigate somewhere else. He should be able to find out information there too.”
A moment later, William noticed something amiss: "There's the aura of the undead here, and it's a very high-level one—it's a lich!"
"Are the adventurers here really alright? Could it be that the goddess has already..." Thousand Hands couldn't finish his sentence, his mind already conjuring up countless tragic fates for the goddess.
“Very likely,” William nodded gravely. “Be careful, there may be more demons and undead hiding in this town.”
“Hmm,” Senju nodded, “So it really is a world destined for destruction. The laws have begun to collapse, monsters can be seen everywhere, and the line between humans and monsters has become blurred.”
Chapter 537 The Lich Sells Out His Items
“Yes, although it looks peaceful on the outside, there are many dangerous things hidden inside,” William said, glancing around to make sure no one was there. “Let’s go inside, capture that lich, and find out what happened.”
“Hmm, but a prop shop, huh? I didn’t expect the Lich to have a shop here too,” Thousand Hands shook his head, then drew his holy sword and stormed inside with William. “Hands up…”
"Welcome, ah!" The other person seemed to be startled by the two of them as well. She immediately raised her hands, and the bottle she was holding fell to the ground and shattered. Only then did Thousand Hands and William realize that the lich was actually a voluptuous older sister who looked weak.
The other person was wearing a dark robe, had long brown hair with a tuft of hair sticking up on it, and most noticeably, the bulge in the front of the robe drew everyone's attention.
But aren't most liches just dried-up corpses? Could this be a high-grade one?
"Is she really a lich?" Thousand Hands asked William, who was standing next to him, looking at the woman's chest swaying up and down. She looked more like a gentle, law-abiding older sister, while the two of them looked like robbers.
“Yes, she is indeed a lich,” William said, also puzzled. If he didn’t have friends who were undead, he would have already gone up and attacked her. “Hey, lich, what are you doing here? What’s your connection with the Demon King?”
"Ah!!" the other party exclaimed in fear, then stammered and turned his head to say, "Guest, guest, what are you talking about? Demon, Demon King or something? I'm not one of the eight officers of the Demon King's army."
"Uh," Senju and William exchanged speechless glances. She had told them everything. Suddenly, a thought struck Senju, and she raised her sword and stepped forward to demand, "Is this the Demon King's castle? Where is the Demon King? Where did you imprison the goddess?"
"No, this is Axel, a town for novice adventurers. The Demon King's castle is in another place. I've never heard of any goddess!" The other party hurriedly waved his hands and explained, "I'm just responsible for maintaining the barrier of the Demon King's castle. I haven't done anything evil. Please let me go."
"Is she really a lich?" Thousand Hands asked again, this time worried about the other's intelligence. William looked at her, sighed, and put away the holy sword. "Tell us everything you know."
"What a strange world. Demons are everywhere, yet it's so peaceful," Senju shook his head with a sigh, then put away the holy sword.
The lich shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief. "My name is Wiz. Although I am a cadre in the Demon King's army, I am just a figurehead cadre. I have never done anything bad. Now I just want to live a leisurely life in this town."
"Is that so?" Senju nodded, looking at Wei to the side.
"So, what exactly are you responsible for? If it has nothing to do with defeating the Demon King, then we can ignore you."
“Ah, I’m in charge of the magic supply for the Demon King’s castle barrier. The Demon King also said, ‘I won’t stop you from opening a shop and living a leisurely life in a human town, but as a member of the staff, how about you help me maintain the barrier?’” Wiz said. “By the way, you can’t enter the Demon King’s castle without defeating the eight staff members.”
"So, it seems we should really punish you after all," Thousand Hands said, gripping the holy sword with eager anticipation. However, the Lich Shopkeeper hurriedly begged for mercy, "Please spare me for now, and there's no bounty for punishing me! I still have things I need to do."
"What should we do?" After listening to Wiz's words, Senju looked at William. "It feels like the people in this world are all mentally unstable. It gives me a strange feeling that if we stay here for too long, something serious might happen."
“I sensed that too,” William nodded gravely. “Anyway, let’s eliminate the eight executives first, but Miss Wiz…”
“Why don’t we lock her up first, just to avoid problems later?” Thousand Hands suggested from the side. William nodded. “That’s right, Miss Wiz. It would be even better if you could stop the Demon King’s Castle’s barrier, then we won’t bother you.”
“No, that won’t do,” Wiz said hastily, waving his hands. “I made a pact with the Demon King that ‘the Demon King’s army must not harm any humans other than adventurers and knights.’ That’s why I agreed to maintain the barrier. If I withdraw it, the Demon King’s army will start attacking civilians again.”
"Uh, I didn't expect you to be a lich," Thousand Hands remarked from the side. "But let Swan come and take a look, just in case this lich lady is lying."
“I’m not lying,” Wiz cried weakly. William then cast a spell, and a moment later, a figure appeared beside him. It was Swan. After a while, he regained his agility.
"Is this another world?" Swan sensed the surrounding environment, and William nodded. "Yes, we just arrived here. There are demon kings here."
The two were discussing matters when Senju realized that they could now gather the materials needed to revive the two.
“Let me see if this lady is lying,” Swan nodded, then walked over to Wiz. “You’re not lying, are you?”
"Oh!" Wiz shrank back in fright. Swann said embarrassedly, "Sorry, sorry, I was just looking a little fierce."
“No, it’s alright,” Wiz carefully raised his head and looked at Swann. “Um, are you a lich too?”
“You could say that,” Swann nodded, and then the two undead began to discuss it. Thousand Hands talked to William about resurrecting Amysa and Hilgrame.
"You've already done it?" William asked with some surprise. Thousand Hands nodded. "That's right. My creative abilities have been restored here. The raw materials are no problem. I just don't know how long it will take to recover, or how long it will take to fully recover. After all, I don't have many powers."
“Yes, I understand,” William nodded, then looked troubled. “Hilgram is fine, but Amysa, that explosive maniac, has a boyfriend and a daughter, which will be a problem.”
“There’s nothing I can do about that,” Senju shook his head. “I can’t possibly revive everyone. I’ll ask them for their opinions when we get back.”
“It seems this is the only way. Hopefully, Amysa can come to terms with it. But after all, he was the one who saved her from the darkness,” William shook his head. Swan, who was beside him, had already come to the conclusion: “This lady is a good person. She is still on the side of humanity.”
"I see, that's good then," William nodded, and the atmosphere around them immediately eased. Senju then began to look at the props around him, realizing that he still needed to exchange the money he had.
"By the way, Miss Wiz, could you check if these coins are usable?" Thousand Hands took out a few coins and showed them to Wiz. Wiz took them and examined them carefully. "They should be usable, but I suggest you exchange them for local currency at the guild. These coins, filled with magical crystals and mithril, are very valuable."
Chapter 538 The Amazing Adventurer Card
“Oh, a guild,” Senju thought of his possessions left behind in the dungeon world, wondering how much was still left. “But you have a really good selection of goods here.”
“Yes, yes, it took me a long time to get these goods from Scarlet Devil Village,” Wiz nodded repeatedly, looking troubled. “I worked really hard to buy these items, but for some reason, the harder I try, the poorer I become.”
"I work like an ordinary person every day, and all I drink is water. I don't even eat bean sprouts. But for some reason, I always have problems paying the rent."
“Uh,” the three people next to him were speechless for a moment, and Thousand Hands silently handed over a basket of bread, “You’ve worked so hard. I don’t know what liches eat, but these are for you as an apology.”
"Waaah, thank you so much," Wiz said, picking up the bread and eating it. "I haven't eaten in so long, I never thought I'd get to eat white bread."
"..." The three were somewhat desperate about this absurd world. Swan sensed the surrounding items and noticed, "The magical energy flow in these magical items seems a bit abnormal; it could easily cause trouble."
That's why no one's coming to buy it.
"Is that so?! But all the goods I stock are popular items!" Wiz exclaimed in surprise, dropping the bread from his mouth. He quickly picked it up and hurriedly pulled out a bottle of potion. "For example, this potion can enhance the effect of paralysis magic, even paralyzing high-level demons!"
Swan took it and tasted it, then cast a paralysis spell on William. It worked very well; both of them froze in place. Thousand Hands had no choice but to use milk to remove the paralysis effect from them.
“It’s amazing, a potion that can even paralyze the user,” Swann complained for a while, while Wiz looked quite devastated. Thousand Hands looked at the two of them speechlessly and said, “I’ll come back to buy things after I exchange some money. Swann, you stay here for now.”
"You absolutely have to come! I'm waiting for you. We still haven't paid this month's rent," the two sighed as they watched the lich waving excitedly. "What kind of world is this?! Lich, stop trying to be cute."
Following Wiz's directions, the two arrived at the Adventurers' Guild. Along the way, they encountered many unusual auras, but they were too lazy to care and decided to find the goddess first.
The adventurers' guild here wasn't as grand as the one in the dungeon. After the two went inside, they discovered that it also functioned as a hotel.
"Welcome! If you're looking for food, please sit at an empty seat. If you're looking for work, please go to the counter inside," a beautiful waitress carrying drinks called out to the two. The two looked inside and saw many fierce-looking adventurers drinking. Upon seeing Thousand Hands and William, she gave them a mysterious smile. "Welcome to the entrance to hell."
“That’s ridiculous,” Thousand Hands shook his head. “Oh well, those strange adventurers.” He and William went to the counter to exchange money.
Upon reaching the window, one sees a very gentle and beautiful woman inside. Her slightly curly orange hair and voluptuous figure give her a mature look. "Hello, I'm Luna. May I ask what brings you two here today?"
“Yes, we are from abroad and would like to exchange some currency here,” Thousand Hands said, placing a large wallet on the counter. The beautiful woman opposite him nodded happily. “Please wait a moment, the exchange will be completed soon.”
She opened her wallet and started calculating. The calculation method seemed to rely on magic; she simply placed her hand on it, and soon obtained the result: "These coins can be exchanged for a total of 350 million Eris. The guild can exchange 10 million Eris now. Please wait a few days for the rest."
“Okay,” Senju nodded, then thought of something, “Could you also help us register for adventurer status?”
“Okay, the registration fee is five hundred Eris per person,” Luna happily agreed, then took out two forms. “You two fill in your personal information, then check your stats, and choose your profession.”
“I see,” the two scribbled something down, while Luna took out a strange device and card. “Adventurers have various professions. By passing this test, you can choose different professions. This is a login card that records the number of times an adventurer has completed a raid. If you level up, you can also get points to learn skills.”
“Now, please place your hands on the crystal,” she explained to the two of them, then pointed to the instrument there, on which was a blue crystal ball.
“Is that so?” Senju placed his hand on the crystal ball, and then placed the cards below Luna. A beam of light was then projected from the device onto the cards below.
"Wow, these numbers! All the parameters are far above the average level. Only Miss Aqua's numbers can compare," Luna exclaimed. Her words made Senju take notice slightly. "Aqua?!"
Then she continued, “Your stats allow you to choose from all professions: the ‘Grand Mage’ who uses various spells, the ‘Crusader’ with the strongest defense, the ‘Sword Master’ with the strongest attack, and the ‘High Priest’, a superior profession of priests. You can choose any of them.”
"Hmm, are there differences between professions?" Senju nodded, then asked, "So, is it okay to learn skills outside of one's profession? And what about skills one already possesses?"
"Please rest assured, Lord Thousand Hands, you can also learn other skills, but there will be no class bonuses," the beautiful woman at the counter explained to Thousand Hands. Thousand Hands nodded, "Then, I will choose the Great Mage."
"Okay, you now have 500 skill points. Please use it with confidence." After operating on it for a while, the other party handed the card to Senju. Senju looked at the card, which showed his name, age, appearance, occupation, and various magic spells.
Then came William, whose score was even higher. "This score?! How is this possible?! I've never seen such a high score before. You must be a hero!"
William was speechless for a moment, "Then I'll choose Sword Master, but I feel Rune Knight is also good, it seems to have a lot to do with amulets."
“In that case, you can also learn the skills of the Rune Knight,” the beautiful woman at the counter reminded you with a smile. “You have six hundred skill points at the start, which is enough to upgrade all your skills.”
"That's good," William nodded, while a group of adventurers who had gathered around cheered after hearing the two men's stats. "Oh, maybe they can defeat the Demon King."
They circled the area for a while before dispersing; Senju ignored the strange people.
Then, Luna asked, "You mentioned Aqua earlier, right? We happen to need to talk to her about something."
“Miss Aqua,” the beautiful woman at the counter pointed to a table in the distance, “she’s right there, the one using the banquet skill.”
Chapter 539 The Useless Goddess's Useless Team
"Thank you," Senju said, then snatched the money bag from Luna's hand and went over. He then saw a beautiful woman waving a fan and releasing water magic. Her hair, eyes, and clothes were all blue. She must be the goddess of water. There was even a cup of water on her head. But judging from her cheerful appearance, was she really trapped?
The people around her were clapping and cheering, and Aqua kept bowing, saying, "Thank you for coming, thank you for coming."
Although they had seen Hestia, the goddess of part-time work, the two had not expected that there was also a goddess of performing arts. After a moment of silence, the two walked over and said, "Hello, goddess Aqua."
“That’s right, I am the water goddess Aqua,” Aqua admitted without hesitation, then looked at the two of them happily. “You must be my followers to recognize my true form. Come on, quickly offer your money to your goddess, and I will promote you to the ranks of the Axis Order.”
“No, no, we’re not,” Thousand Hands shook his head without hesitation, then saw the other person’s disillusioned look on his face. “Actually, we are reinforcements sent by the Heavenly Realm to rescue you, but it seems you’re doing very well, so there’s no need to rescue you at all.”
"What? People from the Celestial Realm? That's great!" Aqua, completely shameless, hugged Senju's leg and burst into tears. "Waaah, you're finally here! I've had enough of this. I'm doing all sorts of work every day, being chased by monsters, sleeping in the stable, not getting enough to eat, and I'm in debt. Life was so much better before. Please take me back! I want a vacation, I want to sleep in, I want to eat snacks."
