Chapter 318 The wicked must be punished by the wicked.
The words had barely left his mouth.
Chen Feng sensed something was wrong.
The suggestion system did indeed provide information that "the hero uncle from another world was mistaken for a monster by the villagers because he was too ugly."
The problem is, the Western fantasy universe is so vast, how could I have been so lucky to run into that brave uncle?
Could someone be plotting against me?
Thinking of this, Chen Feng quickly unfolded the Mountain and River Map in his hand and switched himself into the small world of cultivation.
"let me see!"
A cultivator who cannot foresee the future will not survive more than three hours.
Using the divine nature of time and space within his body and the cultivation technique Past and Future, Chen Feng calculated that there were only five places on the Fire Continent where one could quickly break through to level one thousand.
"Hamlet Town, the Sage's Tower, the Sealed Cave, the Great Labyrinth, the Top of the World."
"Among them, Hamlet Town is related to the information about relatives, the Sealed Cave and the Great Labyrinth is related to the information about slime spiders, and the Top of the World is related to the information about dark wanderers."
Therefore, encountering the brave uncle was not a coincidence, but rather the advice system had predicted in advance that Chen Feng needed to break through to level 1000 and left behind useful information.
It seems this person absolutely needs to be saved.
Chen Feng dismounted from the rented camel and walked to the frame where the brave uncle was tied up.
Sitting here are two men, one tall and one short. The older one looks to be in his forties, and the younger one is not yet twenty. Both are unkempt, and their faces are covered in sand and yellow dust, clearly indicating that they were born and raised in the desert.
The larger one grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and said, "This is the Death Desert Resort. I am the village chief. May I ask, esteemed heroes, do you need lodging or to replenish your fodder?"
Sika, who was following closely behind Chen Feng, felt very uncomfortable. Although the yellow-toothed uncle seemed to be smiling, his flesh did not move. His cloudy, yellowish eyes kept scanning them greedily, like an eagle looking at a rabbit.
Chen Feng pointed to the shelf and said bluntly, "I want to save him."
"This is a rare orc that I captured with great effort; you'll have to pay for it."
"How many?"
"You really want to buy it?" The yellow-toothed uncle glanced disdainfully at the orcs on the shelf and asked Chen Feng suspiciously, "Do you have a fetish for ugly things?"
"No, we just need someone to carry the luggage."
"I see." The yellow-toothed man held up three fingers. "Thirty thousand gold coins."
"How many?"
Chen Feng glanced at his bank balance.
In the original Fire Continent, each country had its own currency, making trade very inconvenient.
But now that it's highly gamified, everyone uses the game coins in the panel, which is much more convenient.
Chen Feng's balance is 100 million gold.
Don't get me wrong, this isn't about unlocking a money-making secret and showing off the money. It's just that back in the monster-farming tower, Chen Feng farmed several monster materials for spatial rings and sold them for hundreds of millions of points in various countries while teleporting.
Even though you have a lot of money, it's still unpleasant to get ripped off.
Chen Feng pretended to turn around and walk away, saying, "Then I don't want it."
"Hey, hey, hey!" The yellow-toothed uncle quickly grabbed Chen Feng, "You can bargain."
Chen Feng had heard that to bargain effectively, you had to get to the heart of the matter first, so he tried saying, "Then, three copper coins?"
The man with yellow teeth readily agreed: "Deal."
Now it was Chen Feng's turn to be dumbfounded: "Is it that elastic?"
The middle-aged man with yellow teeth stroked his messy, gray stubble: "Hey! It's been hanging here for over ten days, and not a single person has wanted to buy it. In fact, it scared away several of my customers because it's too ugly. You'd better take it away quickly, three copper coins."
Oh no, I overpaid.
I should have asked him for some money.
Chen Feng helped the man who had fainted from dehydration onto the camel to rest: "Apprentice, get some water."
Just then, the man with yellow teeth came up again and asked, "Do you need some more hay?"
The two men traveling with us, Earth Dragon and Shield, shook their heads: "We just came from the desert city, and we still have enough fodder."
But the yellow-toothed uncle persisted, saying, "How can that be enough? Look, they're all starving!"
The voice just fell.
With a hiss, the earth dragon suddenly collapsed to the ground, causing Brother Earth Dragon to tumble over.
This was like toppling a domino effect.
Chen Feng's camel and Sika's camel also fell down.
"How could this happen?" Brother Dilong scratched his head and asked, "How much did this fodder cost?"
The yellow-toothed uncle once again made an outrageous demand: "One thousand and twenty for a bucket of hay."
Brother Dilong thought he would have to haggle like before, so he complained, "A thousand copper coins, isn't that too much? Can you make it cheaper?"
This time, however, the yellow-toothed uncle wouldn't budge: "I said one thousand gold coins and twenty copper coins. You adventurers are all here to challenge the Sage's Tower, and you're short of money?"
Brother Dilong was very unhappy: "Aren't you trying to extort money from me?"
The yellow-toothed man snorted, "From now on, there's only one hotel left. It's more expensive there than here, and don't go around saying who ripped us off."
popping.
Uncle Yellow Teeth clapped his hands, and a scantily clad woman walked out of the village: "We have exciting shows! Watching the show costs 1000 gold coins, and fodder costs 20 copper coins. Why is it so expensive?"
"Then I don't want to watch the show, can I just have the fodder?"
"No, I won't sell hay if you don't watch the show."
While the two were arguing.
Shield Guy suddenly patted his chocobo.
In an instant, a white light flashed, and the chocobo transformed into a little girl with pure white wings. She pointed angrily at the short man next to the yellow-toothed uncle and said, "Master, he's the one who cursed me and made me hungry."
The shield-wielding man said coldly, "Using curses to weaken your mounts, then taking the opportunity to sell them at high prices for hay, you guys have a good plan."
Oops.
The yellow-toothed uncle had a bad feeling. He thought the beast couldn't talk, but it turned out to be a monster that could transform into a human. He was in deep trouble now.
"If you say so, then it is?"
"Then I'll assess him and see what his skills are like."
"Fellow villagers, outsiders are bullying us!"
At Uncle Yellow Teeth's shout, more than a hundred villagers rushed out of the village, each wielding a sharp weapon and displaying their ferocious nature.
It looked like the two sides were about to fight.
At this moment, Chen Feng, contrary to his usual behavior, tried to smooth things over, saying, "Never mind, I have spare fodder in my spatial ring, so I won't bother you any longer."
After Chen Feng and the others left...
The villagers immediately asked the village chief, "Why aren't you doing anything to them?"
The yellow-toothed uncle cursed, "What the hell are you talking about? That chocobo that can transform was hit by San'er's super-level curse and it's perfectly fine, while the guy with the shield and the guy riding the earth dragon were both identified as having three-digit levels, higher than mine."
The villagers were still unconvinced: "Haven't we taken on enough level 800 heroes already?"
"That's right, every single weapon we have was taken from the heroes."
The yellow-toothed man glanced at Chen Feng with lingering fear: "If it were just those two, I would give it a try. The key is that black-haired Asian man. I can't even tell his level."
"Impossible, right? Why would a level 1000 expert need to go to the Sage's Tower?"
"I'm not talking about level 1000, I'm talking about levels that are impossible to identify."
"Unable to identify???"
at this time.
Chen Feng, who was constantly switching between different universes using the Map of Mountains and Rivers, glanced at the escort system: "A village, not even a single neutral character, that's really shady."
What's even more terrifying is that, when I used the Appraisal skill just now, none of those guys were below level 100.
While numerical inflation often occurs in games, resulting in new dungeons having more powerful roadside dogs than old dungeons' bosses, this inflation is happening way too fast.
It truly lives up to its name as the Tower of Sages; everyone who comes here is a formidable character.
The risk of fighting this war is too great.
If it were the old Jessica, she would definitely have asked, "Master, how can you swallow this insult?"
But now, Sika knows that her master is up to no good if he doesn't sleep: "Master, do you have a better way to deal with them?"
"Of course."
Chen Feng removed the Mountain and River Map and revealed the Mark of Revenge. In this way, the level 10,000 God of Revenge would definitely visit this small village and be extorted by the villagers.
What kind of story will unfold then? It's hard to guess.
