As time went by, many traveling merchants came to the mysterious place mentioned in the promotional slogans.

Although this place is still far from lively, it is not as deserted as it was a month or two ago.

Many big businessmen who came on behalf of Oasis did not leave after the trade was settled, but stayed in the mall Oasis to continue their inspection. For them, new products were put on the shelves in the hypermarket from time to time, and there were occasional promotional activities, so it was necessary for them to stay and coordinate and direct.

The most important thing is that the living conditions in the mall are very favorable. The accommodation is different from the Star Fortress in style, which is eye-catching. It does not look high-end at first glance and does not have high-level rituals embedded in it, but when you live there, you will find that everything here is very convenient.

Convenient and comfortable are what businessmen say about this place.

The longer they stay, the less they want to leave. All kinds of novel entertainment projects also open their eyes. They say that they are worthy of coming from other large areas, as they know many ways to play.

There are also delicious foods that will make you linger, with a refreshing feeling that goes straight to your soul and makes you feel like your clothes are about to burst.

So, after sending the caravan away, many big businessmen stayed behind, making the Burning Oasis a little more populated.

Outside the oasis,

A large caravan with more than a hundred people was slowly moving from the gray fog area into the sunlit area.

...

...

The guards were wearing shiny armor. Although there were mottled scratches on the armor and the caravan carriages, and they had experienced many battles and hardships along the way, the spirits of the Chamber of Commerce guards were still high. They scanned the surroundings with sharp eyes, guarding against any disturbance.

When they stepped into the oasis, they did not relax much, their hands still on the hilts of their swords and knives, standing straight.

The caravan stopped a few hundred meters away from the mall entrance.

"Another caravan is coming?"

"Oh wow! There are quite a lot of people. This is a large caravan. Which big force is behind this?"

In the ghost world, the farther you travel and the larger the number of people in your team, the more likely you are to be attacked by ghosts and evil spirits.

Therefore, the Great Oasis explores the strange world in small teams of ten people at most. Merchants need transportation vehicles and more manpower, but usually no more than fifty or a hundred people. Large caravans of a hundred people are rare, let alone ones of more than a hundred people.

The oasis is not big and there is not much fun. As soon as they saw the newcomer, many Chamber of Commerce bosses looked at him from afar, wondering which big oasis he came from.

Can we cooperate or are we competitors?

"With such a large scale, could it be that they are from Falling Star City? The Royal Chamber of Commerce of Falling Star has not appeared yet."

"No, I know the Falling Star Royal Chamber of Commerce. These people look very unfamiliar. Moreover... the emblem on the chariot is not the Falling Star emblem. How could I not recognize it?"

This is a grey emblem with complex stripes that cannot be simply described in one or two sentences, but it is certain that anyone who has seen this emblem will find it hard to forget.

The old man has never seen it!

Mo Yan, the president of the Burning Flame Chamber of Commerce, suddenly spoke up, "I have some impression that this emblem seems to be... the emblem of a powerful oasis in the Sighing Mountains, the Land of the End!"

"The Land of the End? I seem to have heard of it. It is the most powerful oasis in the Great Region of the Sighing Mountains. However, the prosperity of their great region is far from comparable to our Falling Star Caverns."

"Your information is outdated. It is said that several decades or even a hundred years ago, a lord in the Land of Ends was promoted to a myth. Now, the Land of Ends is a veritable super oasis force! A super force from the outside world!"

"The news of the opening of the Burning Mall has spread so far?"

"hiss--"

While the merchants were discussing, in the caravan of the End of the World, a young man wearing a slim grey robe and wearing several epic weapons was looking forward to it.

In the oasis of the End of the World, people often value gray, and only high-ranking officials can wear it. If the whole body of clothes is shiny gray, it means that the person is basically a member of the royal court.

Nitat is the thirteenth prince of the End of the World. He has a very honorable status, and he is one of only three princes among the many princes of the End of the World who are qualified to compete for that noble position.

The second prince, the sixth prince, and the thirteenth prince.

Back then, the eldest prince failed to be promoted to the fourth awakening and became a useless person. Now, the most powerful among the three princes is the second prince who has been in power the longest. He has great advantages in both personal strength and the power of his supporters.

In contrast, although Nitat, who is only in his thirties, has outstanding talent and was promoted to a non-human at a young age, he is too young and has risen to prominence too recently. He has a shallow foundation in the Oasis and has few supporters.

He was even regarded as a thorn in the side by the second prince.

"Now if I want to turn the tables, I can only pin my hopes on this Burning Mall."

The Thirteenth Prince pondered.

He was able to get this job only when the second and sixth brothers didn't care.

After all, traveling across domains is full of dangers. Even with powerful guards, safety cannot be guaranteed. It is not uncommon for people to lose contact during a long journey.

It will also keep you away from the center of power for more than half a year.

Even if he arrived at the Falling Star Cave, even if the Burning Fire Mall really existed, Nitat had no idea how much benefit he could get from it, or whether he could turn his situation around.

If he had a choice, he would also like to stay in the royal court and enjoy himself comfortably.

"I have never heard of the Burning Fire Chamber of Commerce. In this vast region, apart from the Falling Star City, there shouldn't be any oases worth noting."

"I think your highness will be disappointed."

"Yes, you can see the border of this oasis at a glance. It is so small that it can't be any smaller. What good things can there be in such a shabby oasis?"

The whispers of the crowd fell into Nitat's ears. He sighed silently, and had already prepared himself mentally for the trip to be in vain.

He said, "Let's go, after all, we are here."

…

Although the Ranhuo Mall is small, it has surprisingly complete facilities.

As soon as they entered the gate of the mall, the waiter guided them to park the accompanying carriage in a place called "parking lot". There were various vehicles parked here, as well as some living mounts.

Nitat arranged a few people to guard and then officially entered the mall.

The construction here is quite good, but most of the shops on both sides are closed, only a few restaurants are open, and there are few people inside.

An extremely depressed look.

Although expected, Nitat was still disappointed.

"Your Highness, this Burning Mall looks like it has only been in business for a few years at most. It hasn't developed in a short time, so it's normal for it to look a bit depressed."

The staff member wearing a gray headscarf spoke up, "What we need to do now is to confirm what goods are for sale here. If the goods are good and can make us a profit, then this trip won't be a big loss."

"Um."

Nitate nodded and walked straight into the hypermarket.

The gray-hooded staff followed closely behind.

quite a while,

The aide spoke with a hint of surprise.

"Your Highness, looking at these treasures on display, it is clear that this Chamber of Commerce is not as bad as it appears. Perhaps there are some surprises. I have already selected a few items worth buying back."

Nitate nodded, showing some joy.

After a while,

The aide spoke, with an expression of surprise that was difficult to conceal.

"Your Highness, this Burning Supermarket sells all kinds of daily necessities. I took a quick look and found that most of them are better than what we produce in the End of the World, and the prices are cheap! I think we can buy a large amount of them and then resell them to the nobles in our Oasis. We will definitely make a lot of strange crystals... This is on the premise that we resell them based on the evaluation."

The Gray Turban staff made a list, which included not only the purchase price, but also the appropriate selling price after returning to the End of the World.

Not expensive.

The aide continued, "Your Highness, purchasing these will help us earn Ghost Crystals. This is one reason. Second, as long as we sell them at a fair price, we can also gain the friendship of many nobles, which will be helpful for your fight for the throne!"

In the eyes of many people in the Great Oasis, the Land of the End is a super oasis ranked at the top of the strange world, with endless glory and honor.

But the staff and Prince Nitat all knew that the End of the World was only a large oasis.

In order to measure whether a force is a super oasis, in addition to having a myth in charge, it must also meet two other conditions.

The first is the level of the oasis you operate.

If quantified, their final destination is only a level 6 oasis, which is still a long way from the level 7 standard. However, the importance of a level 6 oasis and a level 7 oasis to a force is as different as heaven and earth.

After all, they had been operating the Land of the End for a short time, and their foundation and accumulation were far less rich than those of the City of Falling Stars.

The inability to produce a variety of high-end daily necessities on their own is a reflection of their insufficient accumulation.

Second, a true super oasis often has a "backer".

There is the Falling Star City, and I heard that it belongs to the "Stars" lineage in the human alliance.

Nitat doesn't know the details.

They are still a long way from reaching their final destination, but they have already met the most difficult conditions and the future is promising.

"Purchasing high-end daily necessities is good, but these alone are far from enough to reverse this prince's current disadvantage."

Prince Nitat was still conscious.

It is possible to gain the friendship of the great nobles by relying on these, but such shallow friendships may be overturned at any time and cannot shake the many years of management by the second and sixth brothers.

What's more, the End of the World is now making every effort to move towards the Super Oasis, and practicality is the priority in doing things. Hedonism may even be a deduction.

"I mainly buy practical daily necessities, such as shower gel and sanitary napkins."

He said.

His expression was calm, but he couldn't help but feel happy. After all, he was much stronger than he expected.

Seeing that the Thirteenth Prince remained calm, the Gray Turban staff admired him but gradually suppressed their emotions and continued to collect information on various commodities.

Not long after, he returned.

The smile that had just been suppressed rose again, this time more excited.

"Your Highness, good news, great news!"

"This Burning Mall can actually buy large quantities of food, even 100,000 tons or 1 million tons!"

"What!"

Nitat's eyes widened, unable to suppress his surprise.

Their End of the World is working towards becoming a Level 7 Oasis. What is the most lacking right now? Food! As long as there is enough food, their oasis will be able to have more children and breed more people, and the population will grow rapidly to meet the needs of promoting the oasis's promotion.

If he could bring back a large amount of food, and if he could establish a stable trade relationship with the Burning Mall, he… he could…

"You must do this immediately."

"However, what is the origin of this Burning Merchants? How can they even sell large quantities of food? There are not many oases that can store large amounts of food."

Prince Nitat pondered.

He also shared his views with several aides around him.

An aide thought, "It's a bit strange. Even if Super Oasis is behind this Chamber of Commerce, it is impossible for Super Oasis to sell a million tons of food at one time, unless..."

At this point, several staff members and Prince Nitat exchanged glances, and an answer emerged in their minds.

Unless it is the Oasis of Destruction!

A super oasis that was once glorious but now extinct!

"I was wondering how a super business association could do business in a large outer area like the Falling Star Cave, but if it was to avoid enemies, everything makes sense."

"Well, the name of Burning Fire must be just a disguise. Throughout history, there are many former super oases that have been destroyed by great disasters and enemies and have fled to other places and changed their names."

"The Ancient Moon Dynasty of the Broken Sea seems to have a more glorious history that has been buried."

"If this is the reason, then it would explain why the Burning Mall sells a large amount of food. They don't have much food for themselves, but they are in urgent need of various resources and strange crystals to recover."

"When I first saw that this oasis was sparsely populated, I should have thought of this reason."

This possibility is nine out of ten.

Thinking of this, Prince Nitat felt a lot more relaxed and smiled again. "Since it is a fallen superpower, maybe we can buy some unimaginable treasures at a low price. Then the rumor that suddenly spread that the Burning Mall has treasures that can enhance potential may be true!"

He clenched his fists.

The focus of attention shifted from daily necessities and food to those special treasures, hoping to buy one or two.

The bustle in a certain merchandise exhibition area ahead caught Prince Nitat's attention.

In this rather deserted store, there were more than a dozen men and women in gorgeous robes gathered there, looking at an item in the display case and exclaiming in amazement.

Seeing this, Nitat stepped forward quickly.

An object that looks like a fruit with mysterious patterns engraved on it is quietly placed in the display cabinet.

The light of the treasure emanating from it is not bright.

"This is……?"

"Here, look at the markings. This is a fruit that contains the power of thunder. You only need to eat this fruit directly to absorb the power of the inheritance and control the power of thunder."

A big businessman nearby said, "However, this is just what the Burning Mall said. Is there such a magical fruit in the world? Ability Fruit?"

He shook his head in doubt.

Nitat was surprised for a moment and looked at one of the accompanying aides, who was wearing a monocle.

"have a look."

"As you command, Your Highness."

This aide's ability was related to identification and analysis. He was seen fiddling with a monocular device with a strange light flashing in his eyes. After a while, he nodded slightly to the Thirteenth Prince.

"Your Highness, after my appraisal, the effect of the fruit is indeed similar to the description."

However, the effect was too exaggerated and unreal. Even with the ability identification, Nitat still couldn't believe it. The same went for other big businessmen. When traveling outside, how could they not have identification abilities and tricks?

Of course there are, but the identification can also be deceived.

Most importantly,

“Even if a huge amount of money is spent to build a place for the inheritance of abilities, it will take several months or even longer to learn. Note that it is possible to learn and inherit abilities. Now you are saying that you can gain abilities just by eating a fruit? You are kidding!”

"Such technology cannot possibly exist, and such treasures have never been heard of."

"Moreover, the light of this fruit treasure is very faint. It is obviously just a low-level treasure, which is even more impossible."

The merchants were talking about it, but most of them didn't believe it.

Some people also asked about the details of the origin of Bai Yansi's ability fruit, and Bai Yansi smiled:

"This involves commercial secrets, dear. The details cannot be disclosed, but I can reveal that these fruits were obtained from an ancient relic."

Having said this, she shut her mouth, unwilling to reveal another word.

What are ancient relics? They are the heritage relics and treasure houses left over from the glorious empires of ancient times. The most famous of them are the relics of the Glorious Empire of Candela.

Nitat pondered, "These ability fruits look almost identical, and the treasures are faint in brilliance. They really look like mysterious creations. According to common sense, it is impossible to have the technology to integrate inheritance into a fruit, but the technology of the Candela Empire never follows common sense..."

He was skeptical.

His mind told him it was fake, but his heart longed for it to be true.

If he could really master one more thunder ability, it would greatly enhance his combat power.

He is longing for it!

Look at the price tag above.

[Thunder Fruit: 98W Weird Crystals (opening promotion price)]

Nine hundred and eighty thousand!

If it is true, it is definitely worth the money. After the promotion period, the price may increase several times.

At this price, he can still buy it if he grits his teeth.

If the price goes up again, he won't be able to afford it anyway.

Nitat stared at the price tag, breathing a little faster.

Seeing that he was somewhat moved, Bai Yansi said, "My prince, if you are willing to cooperate with my Burning Mall to do an after-sales promotion, this fruit can be discounted by 50%, only for the first customer who purchases it."

She had a gentle smile on her face, but also a devilish look.

Nitat couldn't help it!

purchase!

“Your Highness…”

The gray-hooded aide persuaded.

He waved his hand fiercely and said through gritted teeth, "This is an opportunity! I must seize the opportunity to surpass my second and sixth brothers!"

After that, he asked the gray-turbaned aide to pay.

At the same time, he took off all the strange weapons on his body and handed them over to his direct subordinates.

At this time, Nitat no longer had any magical weapons on him and could only use his own awakened abilities.

He opened his arms, and a brilliant golden light appeared on his body, gradually condensing into a set of golden armor.

"This is my ability, the energy armor."

A purely defensive ability, the turtle shell.

After the demonstration, Nitat opened the treasure box containing the Thunder Fruit, paused, picked it up suddenly, and swallowed the whole fruit with the flesh and skin in one, two, and three bites.

No taste.

But he was suddenly stunned, and extremely mysterious inheritance information flooded into his mind. At the same time, a deep blue seed appeared in his body.

Represents the core elements of Thunder's ability!

Is this...really?

"Impossible! If you can master a skill so easily, I will write my name backwards!"

The president of the White Tower Chamber of Commerce was disdainful.

Act, you continue to act.

The ability fruit is not a skill book, so one cannot learn a skill immediately. The specific length of learning time depends on a person's talent and level.

It takes an average person ten days, half a month, or even longer to get started.

Kenitat is a non-human with four awakenings. He is very good at using life energy and developing awakening abilities.

He immediately closed his eyes, stretched out his right hand, clasped his right wrist with his left hand, and stood still like a sculpture.

Begin to comprehend the mysterious message of inheritance.

It is called Palm Thunder, which concentrates the power of thunder into the palm.

The process of comprehension was not easy, but the magical thing was that Nitat quickly entered the state and was extremely focused. He had never been so focused before. His whole state was unprecedentedly perfect, and the disturbances of the outside world could not affect him at all.

The White Tower President was sneering.

Several big businessmen looked at him with suspicion.

The gray-hooded aide looked worried.

More and more entertainment merchants gathered around.

suddenly,

Sizzle——

A low, long, sharp sound was heard, interrupting the merchants' endless argument.

They were stunned.

The prince of the end of the world, who had his eyes closed all the time, suddenly had a brilliant blue arc of lightning burst out from his palm. The arc flashed and leaped, illuminating the stunned faces.

“What the hell—!”
