Chapter 38 Mysterious Cloaked Man

Is this guy seriously ill?

Chen Qi glanced at Peilu speechlessly.

Whether it is the players or the people of the Witch Sea, they all call her Miss Miracle or Miracle Reporter.

Because everyone agreed that it was a miracle that she was still alive.

Perlu lowered her head and took out her backpack card, trying to find something to pay for the three thousand shells.

Unfortunately not, every item on her backpack card cost more than 10,000 shells!

What a trouble it is to have money, Perru complained in her heart.

Chen Qi is not interested in signatures.

Needless to say, considering Pelle's fame, it shouldn't be a problem for her autograph to sell for more than 3,000 shells.

But the point is that selling autographs is inherently a hassle.

Chen Qi thought about it and asked directly:

"Ms. Pellew, if you don't have money, I want some information about the cracks in Moonstone City."

"Intelligence about the rift in Moonstone City? Are you going to the rift?"

Perru was slightly startled.

"Yes."

Chefs are a typical logistical profession and usually rarely take the initiative to go to the cracks.

In her stereotype, chefs make money by looking for merchants to buy extraordinary professional equipment.

Perru thought about it and wiped the oil from her mouth.

Although this small restaurant doesn’t look very attractive, the food is quite delicious. She even wants to come here a second and third time!

I can't give this boss the impression that I'm eating and freeing, and it will damage her reputation!

She took out a business card and handed it to Chen Qi:

"This is my business card. If you want information about the crack, you can take this business card and ask the owner of the White Dove Newspaper kiosk.

They should know a lot of information about the cracks. They have my business card, and as long as it is not particularly confidential information, they will tell you. "

The key props are in hand!

Chen Qi took the business card.

This business card can be a truly good thing. With it, the difficulty of obtaining intelligence is reduced by at least 50%.

It was so easy to get it. Pellew is indeed the best person to get free information in the Witch Sea.

Before leaving, Perlu said to Chen Qi:

“By the way, Boss, although it’s just my speculation, I think the missing Flower Witch may have sneaked into our Moonstone City.

But unfortunately, my energy is limited, and I have to chase the Sawshark first.

If you have intelligence on the witch, the Black Whale Group, or other big news, you can go to the place on the business card. Based on the information you provide, we will report it to the society and give you a reward. "

"If the news is big enough, we [the newspaper] can even give you a lifelong employment contract."

"OK."

Chen Qi agreed.

Under normal circumstances, this business card is given by a famous journalist to his informant.

But what Pelle gave was rather casual.

Now, the newspaper has not stopped her from distributing business cards.

Pellew walked out of the houseboat, patted the large white dove, and happily left the houseboat.

…

Not long after.

Chen Qi also walked out of the boat house.

Boom!

A huge roar continued to ring in his ears.

In the surroundings, one can already see a large number of giant steel ships and travel ships. Countless ships are like stars, constantly moving towards the port.

"A thousand sails are passing by..."

Chen Qi sighed, the scene before him was completely incomparable to the scene in Maruo Town.

As the small houseboat continued to move forward, a huge city gradually appeared before his eyes.

Chen Qi looked into the distance.

You can see a huge city wall and a lot of black chimneys with smoking pipes.

"Moonstone City..."

Its scale was far larger than he had imagined.

In front of Moonstone City is a large port.

Unlike the dilapidated docks in Marlow Town, the port of Moonstone City has become more prosperous with the arrival of the rift tide.

There are more and more tourist ships coming to Moonstone City and more and more exploration ships going out to sea.

As the wave swept through, the entire Moonstone City instead presented an unprecedented scene of prosperity!

Chen Qi parked the small houseboat in the crowded harbor, walked through the city gate, and headed into Moonstone City.

In order to trade, Moonstone City set up a large number of shops in the square not far from the city gate.

Newsboys, bounty hunters, businessmen, workers, and gang members kept passing him.

It’s very easy to get stolen... Chen Qi held the backpack card inside his clothes tightly and walked towards the center of the square.

A huge clock tower stands in the center of the square. The top of the clock tower is decorated with complex gears and clocks, emitting melodious bell sounds.

Around the square, there are a wide variety of shops and stalls, from exquisite handicraft shops to various gun stores, pharmacies, and sex shops.

There are also a large number of job advertisements and many seemingly good opportunities.

These opportunities often trap those who don't understand Moonstone City.

If you are not careful, the kidney will be gone.

Chen Qi glanced at the surrounding shops.

There are many good things that he cannot afford for the time being.

Chen Qi walked to the weapons shop and sold Iron Hand's mechanical arm and some useless controlled knives in his backpack.

If the robotic arm is cut off, the important part connected to the nerves will be severely damaged, so the price will be greatly reduced.

The rusty mechanical arm was sold for 40,000 and the useless control prop was sold for 20,000, for a total of 60,000.

As for spices like devil pepper, to sell these things, one needs to go to shops in the city center, which requires walking quite a distance.

Chen Qi immediately spent the money at the weapons shop.

I bought a bulletproof vest to improve defense, four flame grenades, and some bullets.

At the same time, he had a grudge against the Black Rabbit Gang in Moonstone City. In order to hide his face, he bought a hunter's coat that could cover his face.

In Moonstone City, a city of talented people and beautiful scenery, it is quite common to see people wrapping themselves up tightly.

Another 30,000 shell coins were spent in one go.

After a simple shopping, Chen Qi began to walk towards his goal, the crack where the treasure of the deep-sea hunter was buried.

According to the treasure information, the Deep Sea Hunter's treasure is located in the cracks of the civilian area inside Moonstone City.

Moonstone City is also a city where prosperity and decline coexist.

Far away from the commercial area and wealthy area is the civilian area.

Compared to the prosperous commercial area, the civilian area is much quieter and has a stronger smell of kerosene and garbage.

Police resources in civilian areas are extremely poor, and instead, there are a large number of gangs engaged in criminal activities.

You can still see fresh bullet shells on the ground.

Apparently, there was another gunfight here not long ago.

Chen Qi prepared to determine the condition of the crack first.

After the rift tide arrives, the rift revives.

As expected, the crack that buried the treasure of the deep-sea hunter should have reopened.

As long as the distortion degree is not zero, there will be a cooling-down period of at least three days after the level is cleared.

And if someone enters the crack first, he can only come back next time.

"I hope the cracks can leave a place for me..."

Chen Qi thought to himself.

Before he knew it, he had reached the location indicated by the treasure map.

Looking into the distance, on a dilapidated wall, a huge wormhole was slowly wriggling, as if it was about to open its huge mouth at any time.

This is the destination of his trip!

"This size, it's a large crack..."

The moment Chen Qi saw the size of the wormhole, he couldn't help but frown.

It will take about a month for the large cracks to reopen.

If he misses this opportunity, he will have to wait for a month.

Next to the wormhole, there were at least thirty hunters armed with guns, guarding the wormhole crack.

Outside the wormhole, gang members were holding guns, like bodyguards guarding a vault.

"Everyone, this is an area under our protection. No one is allowed to approach this place without our permission!"

"After our people go in, and you pay for your tickets, you will be eligible to enter the rift!"

"Complete inspirational information, obtained by professionals with more than 25 inspirations, 50,000 shells per copy!"

"Crack manufacturing, special flamethrower 100,000 each, free tickets after purchase!"

"Fully armed retired soldier bodyguard, 20,000 cowrie shells a day!"

It seems that some gang members have already regarded this public land as their own territory and occupied this crack in advance.

They tried to make a lot of money by forcing sales.

The situation is more serious than I imagined.

Chen Qi glanced around.

In addition to the gang members guarding the entrance of the wormhole, there are also lone hunters like him, quietly waiting for the opportunity.

A large crack will attract a lot of people.

Chen Qi looked back and saw an information dealer holding a newspaper near a newsstand on the street.

The information dealer is near the newsstand and should be the one who works there.

The newsstand of the White Dove Newspaper Company is very common in Moonstone City.

Let’s try out the effect of Pellegrini’s business card… Chen Qi walked along the street, ready to get some information.

Before he reached the newsstand, he suddenly heard chewing and wriggling sounds in his ears.

Good smell——

Chen Qi turned his head.

There seemed to be someone in the grass beside him!

I saw a man in a gray cloak lying in the grass, squirming a little, as if eating something.

The squirming figure of Yao Yan, the twisting buttocks, and the gray cloak covering her whole body.

Could it be a zombie!

Chen Qi suddenly thought of something, became alert for a moment, stepped back, and then stared at the man in the gray cloak curiously.

The cloaked man noticed his sight, stopped what he was doing, turned his head and looked at him.

In the dim light, the face under the cloak is completely invisible...

But judging from her body shape and skin? She looks like a woman?

Morning Kai uses initiative:

"Um, can I ask what you are eating?"

Unexpectedly, he did not smell any blood, but instead smelled a faint scent of medicine.

"Um……"

The cloaked man seemed to be frightened by Chen Qi, and his bandaged little hands moved twice in panic on the ground.

Chen Qi looked at the other person and took another step back.

She seemed to be struggling with what to say in this situation in order to maintain her elegant and mysterious image.

She was silent for a long time, then slowly replied:

"You... don't be surprised. I am absorbing the natural essence of the earth..."

“Eat grass?”

"Um……"
