I'm not just human!

The man asked the question in a rather impolite tone.

Xia Fa didn't speak. He opened his palm, and a ball of wind and fire appeared, swirling around each other before disappearing with a "bang".

The wiry man's expression immediately changed, becoming somewhat ingratiating:

"Sir, please follow me. Since you are an extraordinary person, there is no need to charge you for the boat fare."

Xia Fa nodded and followed him expressionlessly to one of the small boats moored on the shore.

This is what he learned from Chestnut and Ethan in church that morning.

The extraordinary market in Rum City is located on a large island two kilometers from the coastline.

But don't get the wrong idea, that big island is not remote at all; on the contrary, it has excellent scenery and is a resort destination in itself.

The only way to get to the islands is by boat.

These people dressed as merchants are actually boatmen hired by the real merchants in the Extraordinary Market, who are responsible for rowing passengers to the market.

If the person is extraordinary, no money is charged; if the person is ordinary, one gold pound is required.

The price of one gold pound for a boat ride is almost astronomical for ordinary people, but this also filters out many ordinary people who have no money but still want to go to the Extraordinary Market hoping to find a bargain.

Xia Fa sat on the boat, looking out at the sea, which was so blue it was breathtaking.

The sea is vast, with waves rising and falling gently. A few wisps of white clouds stretch slowly across the sky, and several small islands can be seen in the view, all covered with coconut trees or ironwood trees.

Many fishing boats were coming and going at sea, taking advantage of the fine weather to catch as many fish as possible.

If we could catch a mutated supernatural creature from the fish school, we'd be rich, especially the kind that isn't very aggressive.

A slightly salty, damp sea breeze blew by, and Xia Fa's mood brightened.

Although there is still a demigod lurking in the shadows that I haven't dealt with, and I am suspected of being targeted by that unknown entity that looks like a heavy armored cavalryman, at least for now, I am relatively safe.

He also had a full five thousand five hundred pounds in his pocket.

Anyway, the goal of 500,000 gold pounds is too big and too difficult to accumulate. Xia Fa doesn't plan to save money on small things. He will enjoy himself as long as he doesn't overspend.

Then, I'll figure out a way to make a lot of money.

I've heard that the Extraordinary Market has several restaurants with excellent food, as well as the most luxurious and comfortable island hotel in all of Rum City...

Soon, the ship approached the large island where the Extraordinary Market was located.

The first thing that catches the eye is the extremely lively scene—countless extraordinary individuals are darting between stalls and in front of shops. Some are arguing loudly with the stall owners, while others are squatting in front of the stalls, picking up a secret treasure or extraordinary item to examine and play with it carefully.

In the southwest of the island, there is a cluster of buildings, mostly restaurants and hotels, but also pubs, cafes and even bookstores.

Also in the southwest direction, several large passenger ships were moored, with many people preparing to board and others disembarking.

Noise, chatter, laughter... all came at once, and Xia Fa couldn't help but smile.

This extraordinary market looks quite nice.

Without waiting for the small boat to reach the shore, he lightly leaped, his body enveloped in a blue aura, and jumped a dozen meters to the shore.

The shrewd boatman watched with a mixture of amazement and envy.

As for the island, many people who were eager to make a move backed down after seeing Xia Fa's actions.

This is what Chestnut told him: when you arrive at the Extraordinary Market, appropriately revealing your identity as an extraordinary person can avoid a lot of trouble, whether it's a petty thief trying to steal or a cunning merchant trying to fool ordinary people.

With his feet firmly planted on the sand, Xia Fa glanced at the huge market ahead and strode over.

Now, he has not only signed the high-level secret contract of the Ether Source, but also the hegemonic secret contract of the Silver Throne. He also possesses a mysterious sealed artifact in the shape of a horse-slaying sword that is even more powerful than Baal's Warblade.

Not to mention, there's that burning sensation that surges through the heart during dangerous moments.

All of this combined meant that Xia Fa didn't need to fear being targeted by malicious superhumans below the demigod level, as for demigods and above...

Recalling how Lieutenant General Bedivere shattered the space within a sphere ten thousand meters in diameter with a single punch, easily annihilating the skeletons of tens of thousands of giant jaw beasts, Xia Fa felt that he probably still couldn't defeat a demigod.

But at least, he's not too afraid of whale-level superhumans and those below that level.

"There shouldn't be any demigods in this extraordinary market, right? But that's not necessarily true, given how diverse and chaotic this place is..."

It's important to understand that this isn't just an extraordinary market for Rum City's superhumans; it's also an extraordinary market for superhumans from Brandy City and Riverwind City.

There's no other reason than that the larger the market, the more secret contracts and treasures will circulate, naturally attracting more extraordinary individuals to trade.

If it weren't for the fact that Augustus City has the largest extraordinary market in the entire Augustan Kingdom, the extraordinary individuals of Augustus City would probably come to this large island frequently.

"It's starting, it's starting! Hurry, today is the last day. If you listen to it today, who knows when you'll be able to listen again!"

Suddenly, Xia Fa spotted two other superhumans who had just landed on land, running excitedly toward a tavern in the southwest. They looked very expectant, and their faces even had a faint blush.

Not only these two extraordinary individuals, but many other extraordinary individuals in the Extraordinary Market also glanced down at their watches or looked up at the sun before hurrying towards the largest tavern in the southwest direction.

Xia Fa was curious and listened intently to the conversations of the extraordinary individuals heading to the tavern.

This is the application of the wind element in the ethereal source Mysticism; the wind can carry sounds from afar to his ears.

Then, he heard something that surprised him quite a bit.

"That's a real 'bard'! I heard he's going to tell us some secrets about the nine great gods today!"

Chapter 94 The Bard

"A bard?"

Xia Fa raised an eyebrow, his face showing great interest.

Bards are arguably the most unique among all beings.

This is because the bard, as a physical entity, was not even recorded in the book "Entity Witness Notes".

The reason there isn't is that bards are the only entities among many that are allowed by the nine righteous gods to enter the churches of the nine major churches throughout the universe.

Although the entities possess extremely mysterious origins, rules that no one would dare to violate under normal circumstances, and seemingly limitless power, they all seem to be extremely wary of the nine true gods.

Throughout history, not a single entity has ever dared to enter the churches of the nine major churches.

Apart from bards.

This also reveals the unique nature of the bard as a specific individual.

On the other hand, the rules for bards are also very simple.

Bards will randomly appear in taverns, inns, restaurants, and other places throughout the universe, and then begin to tell epic stories.

Once he begins to recount those epic tales of the past, the audience must listen patiently to the end.

And once you've come to listen, you have to attend every single one of them until the bard has finished telling the epic poem.

Anyone who dares to leave early will mysteriously disappear the next day.

Furthermore, due to the special status of bards in the eyes of the nine great gods, it was not always effective for the relatives and friends of those who had disappeared to pray to the nine great gods.

"Fortunately, the bard as a physical entity only prohibits leaving or being absent midway, but doesn't prohibit joining midway..."

Xia Fa carefully reviewed the rules he needed to follow when facing this entity, and without further hesitation, he stepped towards the bar called "Shao Mai'er".

An entity permitted to enter the church by the nine righteous gods is recounting secrets about them. If you missed this, you might regret it for a long time. Luckily, he happened to stumble upon it.

……

Soon, Xia Fa arrived at the bar entrance with the crowded people.

The aroma of beer mingled with the smell of sweat, mixed with the scents of cheap foods such as fried chicken and toast.

Many people were waving banknotes frantically at the bar entrance, just to get a seat, and the bartenders and waiters were almost overwhelmed with work.

Xia Fa glanced at the huge horizontal beer bottle sculpture hanging above the sign of the Shomel Bar, silently looked away, and started to queue up.

Looking at the huge crowd, he felt a little uneasy, wondering if there would still be a seat left when it was his turn.

That was a real-life account of the secrets about the Nine Great Gods; it would be such a shame to miss it…

Just then, a waiter suddenly came up to him and bowed very politely.

"Sir, you must be a superhuman, right? Please come this way. We have a special passage and spot reserved for superhumans."

Upon hearing this, the people around Xia Fa looked at him with surprise and some confusion in their eyes.

I don't understand why this extraordinary person is queuing up obediently like them.

Xia Fa touched his nose, somewhat embarrassed. He hadn't expected that as a superhuman, he would receive preferential treatment even when going to a bar.

It must have been the commotion I made when I stepped off the boat and onto the shore, my body enveloped in a blue aura as I leaped more than ten meters through the air, that caught the attention of the waiter or the bar owner.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you."

Xia Fa smiled slightly, and immediately, led by the waiter, went around to the west side of the Schomel Bar.

Sure enough, a small door was opened on the west side, and two waiters wearing white gloves stood beside it. Upon seeing Xia Fa arrive, they both bowed respectfully, which made Xia Fa feel a little uncomfortable.

After entering, the waiter led him to a small, separate round table where there was only one chair, clearly for a single person.

There were similar small round tables all around, almost all of which were full of people.

Clearly, only superhumans are qualified to sit alone in the Shomel Bar.

As Xia Fa entered, someone enthusiastically raised their beer to him.

The waiter brought over a menu, and Xia Fa glanced at it before ordering a simple selection of dishes, including fried chicken legs, fried onion rings, fried tuna, braised beef ribs, conger eel soup, broad bean soup, three kilograms of black bread, and a small half-barrel of flavored beer brewed by the breadfruit tree.

Having just signed the Silver Throne, a supreme-level secret contract, Xia Fa, despite still possessing extraordinary power from a large number of bee eggs within his body, felt inexplicably hungry.

This hunger seems to originate from the body and requires the consumption of normal, ordinary food to replenish it.

The waiter maintained a standard smile throughout, showing no surprise even though Xia Fa ordered so much.

"Sir, that's ten gold pounds, six silver coins, and two copper coins in total. I'll round it down for you. Thank you for your patronage."

Xia Fa nodded and casually pulled out a gold pound note with a face value of one hundred, mainly because he didn't have any smaller denomination notes.

At this moment, a hint of surprise finally appeared in the waiter's eyes. He glanced at Xia Fa a few more times, took the money, quickly gave him change, and then became even more respectful.

"Please wait a moment, sir. The food will be served shortly!"

As the waiter walked away, a burly man dressed as a sailor turned around and smiled at a small round table not far from Xia Fa:

"Brother, you have a big appetite! Are you also bound by the Mighty Force Pact? Wait, with such a big appetite, could you also have a Controller Pact?"

Xia Fa smiled:
