Abandoned warehouse in downtown area.
In the image of "Ghost Mask", Tianyang walked into this room and saw the Iron Lion with a strange expression, the Jianfeng drinking casually, and the Black Pupil with a confused expression.
After he found a place to sit down, Liuguang also came. The man was scratching his head, and the expression of disbelief on his face was fading.
"It has been confirmed. Lady Shadow is indeed dead."
Liuguang sat down, without his usual smile: "It really is like a dream. That lady was accidentally beaten to death by a tough new soldier."
"Your illusion can be used in this way." Tieshi turned his head and looked at the girl not far away.
Hei Tong shrank back: "This is the first time I've encountered such a situation. I can only say that the lady is very unlucky."
The Shadow Lady is indeed unlucky.
After Tianyang reported her change of route, Tieshi and the others also moved, and Heitong set up the illusion in advance.
At that time, Lady Shadow thought she had already gone far away from the blockaded neighborhood, but in fact, under the influence of the black pupil illusion, she was just circling nearby.
Afterwards, under the cover of the illusion, Iron Lion and Sword Wind launched an attack.
Tianyang had already entered the illusion at that time, but did not take any action. The order he received was a silent assassination.
However.
He didn't have any chance to make a move at all. Lady Shadow climbed over the wall and escaped from the illusion.
At that time, the threads of her fate had all turned black, and she, filled with bad luck, came directly to the blockade area.
Eventually, he was shot and killed by a new recruit.
And the recruit was so nervous that he didn't have time to aim. But just with such a random shot, he hit the forehead of Lady Shadow. Only now could Wuying and his men accept this fantastic result.
"Anyway, we have completed tonight's hunt. Thank you for your hard work."
Liuguang clapped his hands and said, "Next, everyone should try not to appear in the Lower Town. If nothing unexpected happens, the Gray Market should be closed during this period, and Iron Wall will stay here for a while."
"As for the next gathering, wait for my notice."
"Disband."
Leaving the warehouse and returning to the apartment in the upper city, Tianyang didn't have time to catch his breath before a faint light danced and condensed in front of him to form a dice.
The base color is white and the dots are bright red.
Tianyang took a deep breath.
The time for fate's intervention is over, and now it's time to pay the 'fee'.
The dice fell to the ground and kept rolling, making Tianyang nervous.
When it stops, there are four red dots on the upward side.
4 o'clock!
Tianyang breathed a sigh of relief.
fine.
At 5 and 4 o'clock, the luck is a little worse, but Tianyang will stay at home for the next six hours.
To be exact, sleeping.
If my luck is a little bit worse, nothing should happen.
The boy felt relieved, took off his clothes, took a shower, and went to bed.
I thought I would sleep till dawn, but in the middle of the night, Tianyang felt a slight pain in his lower abdomen.
It seems that the fast food I had in downtown tonight was not clean.
at last.
I have diarrhea...
The next day, when Tianyang woke up, he heard the doorbell.
I opened the door and saw a bird.
She
He pointed upstairs and said, "Come upstairs for breakfast later?"
Tianyang smiled: "That couldn't be better."
After a quick wash, he changed into traveling clothes and left the apartment.
Six hours had passed, and Tianyang was glad that, apart from running to the bathroom a few times in the middle of the night, nothing bad had happened.
However, for an Ascender, especially one who is already at level 5, he can still get a stomach upset.
This in itself is unfortunate enough.
Of course, I can't compare with Miss Shadow.
After all, at that time, all the threads of her destiny had turned black.
Wuying hunted down this target and completed the first step of infiltrating the Skyfort. For Tianyang, his plan also took a big step forward.
A faint joy spread in the boy's heart, and he enjoyed breakfast with the two girls in Xiaoniao's apartment in a happy mood.
The little bird held a cup and drank milk of just the right temperature, leaving a circle of white stains at the corners of its mouth.
She licked it and said casually: "Our Ling General Staff is very efficient. I heard from my second uncle last night that the Cui family has received a severe warning."
"It seems that last night, the man surnamed Cui led his men and hurriedly left the city."
Tianyang listened quietly without interrupting, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
But yesterday, he was the one who directly killed Cui Huan.
His anger was real, but after going through so much, he had learned to hide his emotions more and more.
Just like yesterday, even in his rage, he remained calm.
At least, on the surface.
After breakfast, Tianyang said he was going to Tianqing College, and the two girls were going back to the Night Walker Headquarters, and the three of them went their separate ways.
After driving to Tianqing College, the boy attended a morning strategy course. After class, he went to find Lao Xu and had lunch in the college cafeteria.
After eating, Lao Xu took out a thermos cup, poured out the tea he had brewed in advance, and poured a cup for Tianyang and himself.
Tianyang sighed in his heart that Old Xu was enjoying life more and more.
Holding the cup and sipping the hot tea, Old Xu casually said: "Last night, something incredible happened in the Lower Town."
Tian Yang, who had already guessed the answer, still asked, "What's the matter?"
Old Xu put down the cup and narrowed his eyes slightly. "It seems that a large-scale fight was done by several underground organizations. My goodness, they dispatched three-dimensional armed forces, and there were sublimators involved."
"My friend at Tiebi complained that he had to stay in the downtown area for a long time recently, and he didn't know when he would finish the investigation."
As expected, the commotion was too loud and lasted too long. The fortress had to intervene. It was better not to go to the lower city for the time being.
There was nothing good to go to. Gray Market had basically become a ruin, and it would take time to rebuild. The secret party probably couldn't be held in the near future, but it was no problem to go to the charity school with Xun.
I can go with my superficial identity, but if I don't go, it will arouse suspicion.
"I also heard something about the Star Vein Land. The captain told me about it."
Old Xu sighed, "Now, the sublimators are going to become cabbages. Fortunately, I exchanged the sublimation medium in advance and was promoted to a higher rank."
"Otherwise, sublimation media may not be so easy to get in the future. Let's not talk about the future, next year, the price of sublimation media of the same level will at least double."
Old Xu smiled and said, "I have already taken out part of my savings to invest in this area. I will stock up on some of them before the media materials fluctuate too much. I will take them out next year or even later, and maybe I can make some money.
Big profit and a smile. "
The muscles on Tianyang's face twitched slightly: "Are you changing your career to become a businessman?"
Old Xu waved his hands: "No, no, no, I still like teaching. Seeing these young faces every day makes me feel younger."
"It's just a little money. You may want to stock up. Although the number of Ascendants will increase dramatically due to the Star Vein Land, you have to understand that the materials in the fortress warehouse will not increase."
"Moreover, even if it is the sublimation medium that is promoted to rank 4, the materials are not so easy to obtain. It is not possible to obtain a large amount of materials by expanding the staff."
"That will take time. I'll make a bold prediction that in the next one or two years, the fluctuation of sublimation materials will be the greatest. It will peak next year or the year after, and then start to decline in the third year. After four years, the price of materials will stabilize, or even be cheaper than it is now."
"Because at that time, a large number of mid-level Ascendants will pour into the Reverse Realm. The number of ways to obtain low-level materials and the number of people will increase. The market may even be in oversupply."
"So, if you want to make money, you have to make a lot of it in the next one or two years. Hehe, maybe we will have a dowry for Xiaomai in the future."
Tianyang almost gave Lao Xu a thumbs up, thinking that with your business sense, it would be a waste if you didn’t become a businessman.
Old Xu blinked and said, "How about it, Tianyang, are you interested in investing with me? I have connections and can guide you."
Tianyang thought about it. He now had more than 200,000 contribution points, and there were 500,000 in the anonymous card he got from the Li family.
If what happened last night had not happened in the Gray Market, he could use his identity as the Grim Reaper to purchase large quantities of sublimation materials through the Hunger Ball and the Red Chimney for investment.
But now the gray market is gone, and those channels are temporarily unavailable. As for those on the fortress, he is not familiar with them at all.
Thinking about it this way, if I want to make money, I really have to rely on Lao Xu.
Tian Yang quickly made a decision: "No problem, I happen to have some spare money, so I'll leave it to you, Old Xu."
Old Xu laughed and said, "As long as you trust me, I guarantee that you will make a profit. So, how much do you plan to invest? My suggestion is that you should have at least 10,000 yuan as capital."
Tianyang raised two fingers.
"Twenty thousand contribution points, um, not bad." Old Xu nodded, "If it's twenty thousand principal, I'm confident that I can double or triple your money next year or the year after."
Tianyang coughed dryly: "It's not 20,000, it's 200,000."
"Yes, two hundred thousand." Old Xu picked up the cup and took a sip of tea. Suddenly he understood something. His mouth puffed up and he wanted to spit out the tea, but in the end he swallowed it.
He kept coughing because of swallowing.
After a long while, he said, "What did you say just now, two hundred thousand? You bastard, you have only been a member of Night Walker for a short time, and you have already made two hundred thousand."
"I, your brother, have been around for several years and can't even save up 100,000 contribution points. How did you do it?"
Tianyang was laughing, and at this moment the communicator rang, reminding him that a sum of money had been remitted.
It turned out to be the reward for participating in the defense of the Star Vein Land, which was about 30,000 contribution points.
The boy quickly put away the communicator to avoid letting Old Xu see it and upset him.
Old Xu shook his head and said, "If it's 10,000 or 20,000, I'll be your agent. 40,000 or 50,000 won't be a problem."
"But a full two hundred thousand is another matter. There are too many contribution points. If I mess up, I can't afford to pay for it. How about this, I'll find you in a few days."
"When the time comes, I'll introduce you to a few material merchants."
"good."
Tianyang picked up the cup and finished the tea.
