Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 83
Chapter 83 Underground Black Market
Ten minutes later.
‘”Hey, Brother Wuyou, it’s rare for us to talk happily. Alright! I’ll let you in to play, but don’t talk nonsense and be angry with others. You can’t offend the people inside!” Luke said as he held Xu You’s hand affectionately.
“Really? Thank you so much, brother Luke!” Xu You also hit the Snake Sui Staff and began to call Luke his brother.
“Of course, who doesn’t want to make money!” Luke said with a smile.
“Right, right. Money is not a problem. I have it!” Xu You’s words were truly refreshing.
“Haha, follow me!” Luke turned around and walked to the kitchen behind the bar.
Xu You quickly finished the wine. Then he followed Luke into the kitchen, This scene attracted the attention of the few players in the bar. They had already noticed that something was amiss. When the player called Prince Whiteboard first came to the tavern to talk to Luke, they could clearly hear him because ordering wine and food in the tavern was not part of the mission exchange.
But only a few seconds later, The Whiteboard Prince’s conversation with Luke was silent, This meant that the Whiteboard Prince had received a mission from Luke, This made these players feel strange. They had been in this terrifying tavern for quite some time, and they had interacted with Luke quite a few times. However, they had never discovered any quest marks on Luke’s body. As time passed, the players treated the tavern owner as an ordinary NPC.
However, what happened just now showed that Luke had a mission on him, but he was robbed by the first time Prince Whiteboard came, so they were unhappy. A total of five players in the tavern stood up and walked towards the kitchen at the same time.
However, before they could get close to the kitchen, several waiters in the tavern quickly surrounded them. One of them, a Level 35 waitress, said, “The kitchen is very important. Please don’t get close!”
Four of the players stopped when they heard this. Their eyes flickered, their hearts filled with unwillingness, but there was nothing they could do about it. They knew that these waiters were not NPCs without the ability to catch chickens in their hands, but vicious characters who had killed people with knives.
The remaining Knight Player obviously didn’t know about this and continued to walk into the kitchen without caring about it. As he walked, he shouted, “Holy shit, what the hell are you talking about? Why did that player go in just now? Don’t take me for an idiot, okay?”
“This poor child is going to die.” One of the four players, the Undead Mage, suddenly gloated.
“Hey, don’t go any further. If you go any further, you’ll die.” A kind-hearted tauren player prompted.
However, the knight ignored him and decided to follow his own path, letting others talk about it.
However, just as he arrived at the kitchen door, the players behind saw the waitress in front of him suddenly pick up a knife beside them and waved her wrist. The knife flew straight towards the back of the knight’s head.

A small blossom of blood bloomed, and the knight knelt down. The four players behind all sighed endlessly. Auntie had indeed trained, and her injuries weren’t high, but they were enough to kill them.
…
In the tavern kitchen, Xu You looked at a big hole in the floor in front of him and asked, “Is it really below?”
Luke nodded and said, “Yes, it’s down there. Although it’s a little dark and you can’t see the bottom, it’s actually not high. It’s only four to five meters. Jump down and follow the road. We’ll be there soon.”
Xu You looked at the dark cave and swallowed his saliva. For the sake of the ingredients of the cunning treasure, he fished out 10 gold coins for Luke and jumped down.

Falling from a high place would also cause blood to fall. The longer the vertical distance between the jump and the landing, the more blood would fall. Xu You was worried about this, so he hesitated. Fortunately, Luke did not lie to him. The hole was not deep. It was only about four meters deep. After jumping off, he only deducted a little blood.
After Xu You jumped down the cave, he began to walk forward in the dark. Judging from the direction of the wall he touched, the path he was walking down was S-shaped. After walking for about three minutes, Xu You saw a bright light. Then, he finally walked out of the pitch-black rugged path, and what appeared in front of him was another scene.
“This, this is clearly an underground city!” After Xu You finished reading all the scenes in his field of vision, he sighed.
In front of Xu You, It’s a wide street, and he came out of a cave on the side of the street that looked like it was leading to a sewer, Looking at the two ends of the street, he couldn’t see the edge. There were many forks on the street. This was not much different from a residential street in a city. Although he didn’t know how big this place was, Xu You felt that it was definitely bigger than the blacksmith shop in Steel Castle. It was not an exaggeration to say that this was a small underground city.
Xu You looked around for a while before he started shopping. Although there weren’t many people on the street, there was a little noise coming from the houses beside the street. He knew that the legendary black market was in these houses, and they were also classified.
Xu You was the first to walk to a small house called Zhenbu Le, but he saw one just as he reached the door? ? An orc shaman of Level 2 walked out and brushed past Xu You. Xu You discovered that this orc wearing gorgeous equipment didn’t even look at him when he walked out. However, he felt that he had been seen through. Furthermore, he clearly felt that the orc was disdainful of him. This feeling was truly terrible.
After the shaman NPC walked away, Xu You, who was covered in cold sweat, finally reacted. No wonder Luke reminded him not to offend anyone. Any NPC here could kill him with his pinky.
Xu You calmed down and continued walking into the house. After entering the house, he discovered that there were still two NPCs looking at something. Xu You was not in a hurry, so he stood to the side and watched without saying anything.
In the game, transactions between players and NPCs were the most common. However, transactions between NPCs were not unusual. In this world, NPCs were equivalent to natives. Players were migrants. Therefore, the activities between NPCs were also important factors in this world.
After listening to Luke’s explanation, Xu You knew that only Level 30 and above players could enter this place, so there shouldn’t be many players who could enter this place. Not to mention no, wasn’t he just one? But there are definitely not many, so NPC buyers are still the main consumers here.
“How much is this moonlight cloth?” A human mage, NPC, asked the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was a dwarf aunt. She looked at the blue cloth scroll in the female mage’s hand and casually said a number that made Xu You tremble in fear, “200 gold coins!”
“It’s expensive.” The female mage shook her head and put down the cloth scroll.
‘”This is a black market. Of course, the price is not cheap. You should know that this moonlight cloth is not allowed to be traded among the people, understand?” The Dwarf Aunt said angrily.
“I know, but it’s still expensive. Bess, let’s go shopping again.” After the female mage finished speaking, she pulled another NPC and left.
The dwarf aunt’s attitude was also very bad. “Tsk, wherever you go, it’s the same price. Don’t waste time. If you don’t have money, get out of here quickly.”
The two human NPCs who had already walked out did not reply. The dwarf aunt was also bored. She glanced at Xu You, who had been watching the play for a long time, and said disdainfully, “A Level 17 kid? How did you get in? Those gatekeepers are really messy.”
“Hello, Miss Jenny. I paid ten gold coins before I came in.” Xu You replied politely.
“Aren’t you talking nonsense? Those gatekeepers will let people in for free. The sun has risen from the west.” Aunt Jenny curled her lips and said, “What do you want to buy? Look, I don’t have that much time to chat with you.”
“Alright, alright.” Xu You said flatteringly. He had a trick to deal with these savage NPCs. Although he was sometimes humble and disgusting, did he need to be angry with a piece of code?
Xu You started to slowly browse through the merchandise. The shop is called Jane Cloth, He must be selling cloth and other related materials. The reason he came into this shop was because of the magic core. Only high-level monsters in the magic core would drop it, and most of the magic cores wore cloth armor. Therefore, Xu You thought that this cloth shop should have news about the magic core, and the other materials he wanted to buy were not related to the cloth.
But Xu You looked through the goods here and didn’t find anything like magic cores. So he asked, “Miss Jenny, do you have any materials called magic cores for sale?”
“Everything I sell in my shop is on display. If there is anything, there is nothing. Don’t ask me!” Jenny’s words infuriated Xu You half to death. This shop is yours, I don’t want to ask you who you want to ask?
But Xu You calmed down. Any NPC here? ? ‘”I’ve seen it before. You don’t have magic cores here, but do you know where they are sold?” He asked with a smile.
“Ten gold coins.” The dwarf aunt said a price, making Xu You dare to be angry and refuse to give it.
After Xu You traded 10 gold coins to Jenny, the dwarf aunt said, “Sorry, I don’t know!”
“Holy shit!!!” Xu You’s anger was burning.
“However, if you go another 200 meters east, there is a shop called ‘Material House’. The old bald man inside may know!” It took Jenny a few seconds to finish her sentence. The anger in Xu You’s heart was instantly extinguished. He hurriedly thanked the hateful dwarf in front of him and ran away. Xu You did not want to face Aunt Jenny again. Otherwise, he was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions and hit her with a hammer.
After coming out of “Zhen Bu”, Xu You sighed. This black market is too dark. It costs 10 gold coins to get information. How do you expect ordinary players to live? Furthermore, there seems to be no security guards here. If there is a dispute, wouldn’t fighting be a mess?
