Airplanes!

With the help of the floating effect brought by the star's flesh, William landed steadily, and just landed in a forest area full of maggots.

Maggots with maggots-like lower bodies and humanoid upper bodies are clinging to the surrounding trees.

There is a constant flow of white excrement from the body, watering the dense crystal eggs on the ground, but unfortunately the fertility rules of the old world have been locked, and the hatching from the eggs is only stillborn.

So it's disgusting that there are eggs and stillbirths everywhere.

They had no fear of William's coming, as if they were tired of living in the old world.

William didn't care about the maggots, he took out the card of the Black Company, thought about it and stuffed it back into his pocket.

"Forget it, the last time I let the Black Shell train take me to the secret area of the Chamber of Commerce, it almost caused the whole vehicle to be slaughtered by the Silver Mask...... I'd better hike there on my own.

It's just the right time to test the physical growth that has been harvested in the circus this month.

Although I didn't deliberately exercise my body, I felt that my body had grown a lot under the influence of that atmosphere. ”

Seeing that there was no place for maggot eggs to fall on the ground, William jumped directly onto the trunk of the tree and strode forward on the top of the woods.

"Hmmm! It's a lot faster...... Is it just because of a hot dance with Mr. Bunny? When I get back to the end of the path, I'll definitely get a good look at the acrobatic troupe, and even connect my new department to it. ”

A hundred kilometers can be easily reached in half an hour,

Due to the heat and heat of running for a long time, William took off his gentleman's costume completely when he jumped out of the forest, revealing his rather beautiful upper body.

The gentleman's costume actually had an automatic heat dissipation function, but William, after a month of circus life, seemed to be used to showing his upper body or even not showing it and was a little uncomfortable.

The familiar Grand Canyon is right in front of you,

The hinterland of the valley, completely blackened and obscured by layers of mountain structures, is the area where the Chamber of Commerce's secret area is located, and any approach by non-related personnel may invite the slaughter of Silver Mask.

William came here this time for only one purpose - [to pick up the goods]

Retrieve the candle puppet you have deposited here, and then officially start the journey of exploring the abyss.

As William descended into the hinterland, the golden mask with the candle in his hand stepped out again.

However, when we meet again after a month,

The expression of the golden mask was a little puzzled, because the aura on William's body had changed significantly, and the image of such a shirtless and even deliberately showing his body was a little contrary to the restrained young man in the past.

The Golden Mask watched the slight throbbing of the surface of his muscles, and the restless enthusiasm that lay beneath his flesh, reminded him of a very troubled being.

"William, it seems that you have learned a lot from your travels this month. You don't know that rabbit, do you? ”

"Senior Golden Mask, do you know Mr. Rabbit?"

"There is basically no one in the entire silver circle who doesn't know that rabbit, as for me~ I met by chance before, although I didn't fight directly, but just by the collision of aura, I can know that the body of that guy is incomparable, more terrifying than any old world life I have ever seen.

However, I don't have much to do with him, so what is his personality? ”

"Well~ I haven't actually had any formal contact with Mr. Rabbit, but I've just taken a few photos and danced a few times with his performance.

However, Mr. Rabbit seems to be pretty good to me. ”

"I can see that you have a good match for that rabbit, but be careful...... Once you put on your hood, you may become a slave. However, as a high-quality customer of Lord Duke, you should not make such a low-level mistake.

You should have signed a confidentiality agreement for matters within the circus, so I won't ask any more, is this time here to see the Duke or something? ”

"I want to retrieve the candlestick."

"Looks like you're ready to head to the abyss in search of a way? I'm really looking forward to what will become of you after the pass...... Wait a moment, and I'll go get your candle out.

At present, the Chamber of Commerce is still 'rectifying', and it will be very troublesome to take you in. ”

"I'm in trouble."

"By the way, your candle puppet is too autonomous, and she is unwilling to cooperate with her original owner during the upgrade process, and even looks down on the candle puppet materials prepared in advance.

In the end, there was no way, the Chamber of Commerce provided her with some new materials, and the cost will be credited to your account. ”

"It's okay, she shouldn't spend much."

"It's really not too much, it's 100,000 ancient coins~ William, as a high-quality customer, as long as you pay it off within a year. Otherwise, you will be forced to repay the loan, which will affect your personal reputation. ”

"One hundred thousand! What the hell did you buy!? ”

"Don't worry, the Chamber of Commerce won't cheat you. Given that the Duke has already identified your path to some extent as it relates to the Abyss, adequate and effective lighting is essential.

We provide candle puppet materials that can support her long-term operation in the dark.

Also, your candle puppet is very interesting, and the whole upgrade and assembly process is basically done by herself.

Okay, let's stop making small talk with you, I'll take her out. ”

"Ah...... All right. ”

For a full 100,000, the maximum deposit William ever had was only 20,000 yuan.

However, when the Golden Mask brought the candle puppet out, William's expression changed again.

Although Thirteen hasn't changed much in appearance, she is still wearing her old and torn goth dress, with wax oil remaining between her hollow eye sockets.

However, the candle hidden between the skulls has become completely different, as if it has an endless source of energy, and there is no need to replenish the wax oil in the future.

In addition, all the mechanical flesh hidden under the skin was replaced with a black metal. William even felt that the material itself exuded the smell of the abyss, and the black surface supported the body of the candle puppet like a living thing.

When walking out of the valley,

The golden mask was placed on the back of the candle puppet's head, allowing her to regain her sense of self.

The fire overflowed between his eye sockets again, and when he saw the familiar young man in front of him, Thirteen's metal face did not change at all, except for an extra drop of solidified wax oil in his right eye socket.

She moved behind William with a slightly quicker pace than usual, and stood silently as she had been, not saying a word.

On the contrary, it is the golden mask that explains where the money goes:

"Wax made from a rare evil sun grease burns almost non-stop.

and the mechanical body reconstructed of the abyss metal, such candle puppets are relatively rare in the entire old world, and they are the best companions for exploring the abyss. ”

"Okay, thank you for taking care of Thirteen this month."

"Where, we're just collecting money to do things. Then I wish you a smooth journey along the unknown path at the bottom of the abyss. ”

Wave goodbye.

As soon as William had completely walked out of the Chamber of Commerce area, he called the Black Roundworm train to the vicinity of the Abyss's location.

With William's departure,

The golden mask extinguished the candle in his hand and returned to the depths of the mountain alone, following a winding staircase to the depths of the earth, the secret area of the Chamber of Commerce.

There are all kinds of strangely shaped 'money laundering equipment' placed underneath, and a large number of gold masks are working here, and some of the goods with belonging are 'cleaned' to wash away the connection between the goods and the original owner or power as much as possible, and store them in the duke's castle.

Some items that cannot be completely washed have to be specially wrapped and sealed.

And the Duke himself is carrying out a ritual about 'luck condensation'.

Ancient coins large enough to buy a normal neutral city were consumed during the ritual, and even the duke's bloated body was drastically reduced.

At the cost of money and flesh, in exchange for his own control of luck and the selection of the site for the next Chamber of Commerce exhibition, he has always remained neutral and will not get into any trouble.
