Chapter 1299: Rumors

The beach-pants man was obviously not satisfied with the succubus’response, but he had no choice but to return his attention to the matter at hand, he took two things from Zhang Heng.

One was the Fishbone bracelet given by Alexia, and the other was the pebble named Old Seal.

The beach pants uncle looked at the fishbone necklace first, “AH, it’s something from the shamanism. It looks like it’s a talisman made by the Inuit. This thing is quite rare. The main reason is that the shamanism is on the decline and is relatively closed off. It doesn’t spread out much, but the things they make have a unique effect on the soul. This thing should be appraised in a day. If you’re in a hurry and are willing to double your points, you can do it in half a day.”

After saying that, he picked up the pebble again. This time, he was slightly surprised. “Old Seal?”

“You know this thing too?”Zhang Heng observed the expression on the beach pants uncle’s face.

“Of course, I also read novels and play games,”the beach pants uncle asked. “Are you willing to sell this thing to me? I can offer 100, NO, 200 points.”

“I didn’t know that there was a tool recycling service in game points,”Zhang Heng said.

“It’s not a service for game points. I bought it myself,”the man in the beach pants said, “You don’t have to worry about the tools that I lied to you about. All the old seals are F grade tools. Based on the exchange value between you players, they won’t be worth more than 50 points. If you sell it to me, you’ll earn four times the original price. Moreover, this thing has a single purpose, so it’s not useful under normal circumstances.”

“Then why are you willing to spend so much money to buy a useless item from me?”

“It’s just… Just in case,”the beach-pants uncle mumbled.

However, before he could finish his sentence, he heard a voice from the succubus. “I’ll offer 500 points!”

“What are you guys trying to do? !”The beach-pants uncle almost jumped out of his seat when he heard that. “It’s fine if you don’t try to protect me, but you still want to snatch an old seal from me!”

The person who raised the price was a pure-looking girl who looked like a girl from the neighborhood. Zhang Heng remembered that her name was Bei bei.

Bei bei tucked her hair behind her ear and looked at the man with a half-smile, “You still have the cheek to complain that we’re not cooperating with you? Did you tell us everything you know? Unfortunately, you’re not the only source of information for us sisters.”

“It’s not that I’m unwilling to share, but isn’t this just some gossip? There’s no chance of success,”the beach-pants uncle said with a smile. At the same time, he winked at Bebe, signaling for them to take the old seal from Zhang Heng, after that, the two of them slowly discussed who should get it.

However, Bebe completely ignored his winks. Instead, he said to Zhang Heng.., “I’m different from the profiteers over there. I Won’t let you suffer any losses. I’ll give you 600 points to sell this to me, okay?” “If… you need anything else, I can provide you with a special service.”

However, to her surprise, the new player opposite her said, “I don’t lack points, or rather, I don’t lack these 600 points. However, if any of you know the origin of this old seal or the creator’s information, I can give this to you for free.”

The man in beach pants had a strange expression on his face.

Zhang Heng already knew that he was the vessel chosen by the Master of Underice City. The conflict between the two of them could not be reconciled. There would definitely be a battle in the future, and the old seal was the only thing he could find that could work on the other party, although the effect was not ideal, it at least pointed out a direction for Zhang Heng. If he could find the creator of the old seal, Zhang Heng might be able to get more methods to deal with the master of Underice City from him.

“Why, is this request too much?”

“No, no matter what, the old seal is actually no secret. Or rather, it’s all a secret. No one knows the exact origin of the old seal. The earliest theory is that it was made by a Kanak native on an island, but no one can find that island. It is said that some ordinary people called investigators can also make the old seal, but it is not something that can be easily drawn. Therefore, the number of old seals has always been low.”

On the other hand, the man in the beach shorts was also a bachelor. He knew that it would be difficult for him to get the old seal from Zhang Heng, so he decided to reveal everything, “Actually, the old seal’s function is just that. Holding the old seal is more for peace of mind… 200 points is more or less my limit. I can’t afford any more. I’m not as rich as those women.”

“Then why do you suddenly want peace of mind?”Zhang Heng asked.

The beach-pants uncle hesitated for a moment before saying, “I recently heard a rumor that a troublesome guy is coming back. It’s not just me, many people are starting to make preparations.”

“A rumor? Where did it come from?”

“No one knows where the source is,”the beach-pants uncle said with regret. He wanted to shut his mouth, but then he saw Zhang Heng reach out a palm, “50 points. I want to know the content of that rumor.”

“Deal.”The man in the beach pants gulped, “The rumor is simple. It says that there is a representative among the players who has become a vessel for master lalaiya. When the time is right, that existence that feeds on terror and is unable to communicate will break free from the Cage of the stars and return to the human world, bringing destruction and disaster. This rumor is spreading rapidly among the gods. As for the source of the rumor… some say it’s Apollo. After all, there is a prophecy in his priesthood. Some say it came from Hermes, but others say that the god of sleep, Soponos, was the first to sense danger from his sleep. It feels like… Everyone is just guessing.”

“Did the rumors mention the agent’s name?”

“Not really,”the man in beach pants replied, “However, we can’t rule out the possibility that someone might know about it. In short, that guy is in big trouble. Although the organizing committee has a rule that the gods are not allowed to attack the agent unless they are in a dangerous situation, some people might not be able to resist taking the risk. After all, as long as we kill him, the Master of Laraya won’t be able to return to the human world. If it were me, if that guy were standing in front of me, I wouldn’t be able to resist taking the risk either.”

“Thank you for your information.”Zhang Heng keyed in his player number and 70 points on his tablet. “I’ll have to trouble you to rush both items.”

“No problem.”The old man was in a good mood after seeing the large sum of money in his account. The regret of not being able to buy the old seal was long forgotten, “You can pick it up after 6 pm tonight. You can also leave an address. I’ll send it over for you.”
