Chapter 298: Mysterious Device
"She's not going to spy on me at all?"
Ye Kong guessed in his heart, when it came to this, he didn't think that Charlotte was an innocent girl, thinking back to the beginning, the other party's shy performance was probably all pretended, just to numb his nerves.
At the earliest, Charlotte stayed in Aoki Castle in the Duchy of Stars, probably not only for the sake of "Obai's Gathering Secrets", but also for ulterior reasons, which are related to the entire current war conspiracy.
Based on the above information, Ye Kong speculated that the other party would send someone to follow him, so he did not go to store 104 at the first time, and deliberately found an idle store to facilitate his own discovery of the stalker.
Who would have thought that Ye Kong was a flattering look and threw it to the blind man, and Charlotte didn't send someone at all, so he made a calculation in vain.
"Forget it, since no one is tracking, let's go to the target location first."
Ye Kong took a look, the equipment on the shelves in the boutique area was basically based on black iron quality, occasionally mixed with one or two pieces of bronze equipment, not to mention the outrageous price, and it was completely incomparable with the equipment on his body, and he was not even worthy of the qualification to carry shoes.
With this kind of equipment, Ye Kong was naturally not interested, turned around and left the store, and walked in the direction of the target.
A few minutes later
Ye Kong came to a miserable and abnormal shop, there was not a single customer in the shop, only a lone hunchbacked boss, he had white hair, and the clothes on his body were limited edition patches of linen, which were very shabby, and even breathed with a sense of poverty.
The same is true of the goods in the store, which are full of dust, and the gray-brown dust layer can barely be seen, it is a rock-based material, but unfortunately, there is no shortage of minerals in the Night Country.
As a lower stratum realm, the Night Realm itself is rich in various minerals, and opening a shop made of rock materials in this place is tantamount to being indifferent to everyone, and it is extremely likely that it will rush to the streets.
Seeing this scene, Ye Kong took the initiative to step forward and ask, "Boss, are there still things sold here?" β
When the hunchbacked boss heard the voice, he raised his head and glanced at him with cloudy eyes, and suddenly, the hunchbacked boss's gaze froze, and he looked at Ye Kong's chest in a daze, where there was a snowflake-like badge that was shining.
"I sell everything here."
The hunchbacked boss straightened his posture and said in a serious tone: "Young gentleman, what do you want to buy?" β
"Some useful information."
"Oh? What kind of information does it look like? β
"Information that makes people get rich quick."
"Hahaha~!" The hunchbacked boss laughed and said, "Young man, do you look at me, do you look like someone who has that kind of information?" However, I can give you a few words of advice, come into the house with me, and I'll talk to you in detail. β
The hunchbacked boss turned around and walked into the house, Ye Kong followed, and as soon as he entered the house, the hunchback boss closed the door of the store and hung a 'closed shop and rested' sign on the door.
"Messenger, please come with me."
The hunchback boss changed his attitude and became very respectful, walked in front of a shelf, stretched out his hand, and the shelf slowly moved to the side, revealing a dark and deep tunnel.
"The cargo is underground, Lord Courier."
The hunchbacked boss explained, and took the lead in getting in, Ye Kong did not doubt that he had him, followed the footsteps of the hunchback boss, and stepped into the tunnel together.
In the darkness of the underground, the two of them walked for a while, and suddenly, the eyes became cheerful, and an underground hall appeared in front of them. The whole hall is very large, about the size of a football field, with a ....... in the center Mechanic?!
I saw that the mechanical device was spherical, with a star point in the center, layers of metal-like rings, floating around the origin, constantly rotating, like a solar system - the star point is the central sun, and the ring is the orbit of the satellite around it.
"This ...... Is this a dwarf product? Ye Kong's heart was shocked, and he almost blurted out, with his vast knowledge, he recognized the item in front of him at a glance, which belonged to a typical dwarf product.
Dwarves are a new race in the era of the Dragon Emperor (the first year of the new era - 780 years of the new era), and they are themselves a hybrid race of colored dragons and humans, with a trace of dragon blood, and they are good at elemental refining, so there are a large number of blacksmith masters.
"It's actually a dwarf product........"
Fortunately, Ye Kong stopped the impulse, did not shout, but pretended to be calm: "Well, what the Lord Commander ordered, is that thing?" β
"Yes!" The hunchback boss respectfully said, "Lord Courier, we got in touch with the Dwarven Council to get this thing with great difficulty, and at the same time, it is also the key to driving the 'replica', helping us to grasp the victory of the war. β
At the same moment, a hint also sounded in Ye Kong's mind-
System Prompt: You have successfully contacted the shop owner and learned about the relevant content, and the side quest has been successfully updated, please bring back the mysterious device and give it to the Commander of Tours.
"I see."
Ye Kong's tone was very cold, quite like a man in black: "I'll take that thing away, you didn't leak anything about the news, right?" β
While speaking, Ye Kong stepped forward quickly and reached out to touch the mysterious device.
"Of course not, Lord Courier." The hunchback boss still said respectfully: "Regarding the news, please rest assured, we have done a good job of secrecy, and there will never be a third force who will know." β
Ye Kong touched the mysterious device, and sure enough, its information had the attribute of 'must fall', just like the badge of the Winter Envoy, it would definitely fall once it died. It seems that Ye Kong must not make a mistake on the way back.
The excavation degree of the entire envoy task is very high, and it is likely to exceed the original demon time, if he completes the side quest, the task reward will be on the next level, which is definitely very generous - I am afraid that the demon time in the previous life may not have this reward.
Now, Ye Kong also has a guess that the trigger conditions of the side quest are likely to be related to the prestige of the Winter Army, and it is not the level of "respect", but the highest level of "worship"!
Only in this way can we explain why Turce didn't explain the truth when Ye Kong was leavingβfor the sake of critical secrecy, the trigger mechanism was set on the badge, and only the personal prestige that Tours fully 'trusted' could trigger the hidden mechanism on the badge.
"I hope so."
Ye Kong picked up the mysterious device, turned his hand into the backpack, and turned around and left coolly.
"I'll take the things away, you continue to work hard, and the Lord Commander will not treat the heroes badly."
"Greetings to the messenger........."
The hunchbacked boss was very excited, as if he had been rewarded by his superiors.

At the same time
On the Northern Front, in a copy of the Bone Ruins.
A group of girls are in front of the dungeon, preparing the copy of the regular mode, after all, the wasteland mode has long been attacked and cannot be opened again.
On the chests of the girls, they are wearing a raindrop-shaped badge, which is ........
