Chapter 39 Aren’t You Really Hungry?

The cloaked man raised his head slightly and said softly:

“You know what?

In the Golden Flower and Bird Kingdom, the earth is regarded as the foundation of life and the mother of all things. The earth is the starting point of all living things.

On the annual prayer day, there is a ceremony of kissing the earth and thanking the Mother Goddess.

In the ceremony, flowers and grass are regarded as the most primitive gifts bestowed by the earth to mankind, and those who believe in the code of flowers will also kiss flowers and grass.

I wasn't eating grass just now, I was kissing the ground!"

"???"

Chen Qi frowned and looked at the weeds at the corners of the other person's mouth.

What is she talking about?

You call this a kiss? A kiss in the mouth?

The flower phase symbolizes elements such as nature, pleasure, art, and beauty.

Chen Qi remembered that some flower-related professions did have the skills to recover health by eating grass or photosynthesis.

But weeds are really unpalatable.

And it's not very elegant to say it out loud.

The way she squirmed lacked the grace that a ceremony should have.

"Are you really not hungry?"

Chen Qi asked curiously. He had some food in his backpack.

"no."

The cloaked woman hesitated for a moment and answered stiffly.

Okay...Chen Qi was not surprised by this answer.

In a place where order is out of balance, not many people will accept food from strangers.

When hungry, many people would rather eat grass.

The cloaked woman's ability to resist hunger was extraordinary. He glanced at the huge wormhole door and quickly changed the subject:

"Are you also here to join this rift?"

Chen Qi looked around.

Many civilians near this street have run far away because of gang issues.

Those who can stay nearby are either participating in the Rift or selling intelligence or equipment.

Chen Qi thought about it:

"I'm a chef and I wanted to see if I could make some money around here."

"Chef! Really?"

The cloaked woman was startled and swallowed a mouthful of water. The delicious cake suddenly appeared in her mind.

She suspected that the other party might have noticed that she was hungry and was teasing her!

Suddenly, Chen Qi discovered that some strange changes had occurred in this cloaked woman.

The cloak covering her head inexplicably had some slight bulges like sea waves!

What's going on? Her hair is moving? Is it crawling flesh?

Chen Qi was shocked.

He immediately thought of the monsters in many games that used cloaks to cover their terrifying bodies!

All of these monsters are hidden BOSS-level characters.

Looking closely, you can see that this person is wrapped up tightly.

Bandages were also wrapped around the exposed arms and legs.

The cloak was pulled down so low that the upper half of the face could not be seen at all.

A very mysterious man...

Chen Qi's curiosity was aroused as he really wanted to lift her cloak.

Unfortunately, he was not strong enough at the moment, and was not very polite, so he could only temporarily suppress the idea of ​​lifting the other person's cloak.

According to his gaming experience, when the opponent takes off his cloak, it is very likely that a terrifying second stage will be directly activated.

The cloaked woman seemed to be aware of the strange bulge in her cloak. She turned her head in the direction of the wormhole and said mysteriously:

“It seems that you are a newcomer to the Rift.

I remind you that in that crack, unimaginable horrors will occur."

The moment she finished speaking, the woman in the cloak dusted herself off and walked towards the street.

"ha?"

What horror? Chen Qi looked at the back of the cloaked woman.

After saying a riddle, he ran away.

Damn it, let him run into a damn Riddler!

Judging from what happened just now, the cloaked woman should be someone like him, preparing to enter the rift alone.

Moreover, the other party must be hiding a lot of secrets.

There is no shortage of people with secrets in Moonstone City.

"Let's go get some information first..."

Chen Qi took out the "Reporter" business card and walked towards the newsstand in front.

The newsstand was built next to an arms store. The surrounding light was dim and hazy. The owner behind the window was an old man with thick hair and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

He narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice:

"Sir, what newspaper do you want? The Witch Times, the freshly-published White Dove Times, or the Men's Times that introduces the lives of celebrities. Of course, some newspapers that show the beautiful curves of the human body. We have them all."

Chen Qi said bluntly:

"I want some intel on that rift."

The old man adjusted his glasses:

"Regarding the cracked newspaper, guest, it will be a little more expensive than the normal newspaper. If you have a membership of the newspaper company, it will be cheaper."

The old man made a five sign to him.

Five thousand shells...

Not expensive.

Chen Qi thought about it, and handed Perlu's business card to the other party:

"With this business card, how many more do you need?"

I don’t know how famous Pellegrini is, how much discount she can get.

The old man lowered his head, glanced, and clenched his fist:

"Peru again..."

The kind old man's eyes suddenly became somewhat resentful.

Chen Qi frowned.

Judging from the other party's expression, the title of Miracle Reporter Pellegrini is not as useful as imagined.

After all, the number of business cards that Pellew threw out must have been at least a hundred, if not a thousand.

No matter how good something is, it will depreciate if there is too much of it.

Chen Qi stretched out his hand, ready to pay some money. It was more reassuring to buy information with money.

But the next second, the old man interrupted him:

"No, sir. If you have a business card, you don't need to pay separately. This is the rule of our industry. Even though it's this little...cute Perru, but rules are rules."

Don't want to make money? Chen Qi stopped taking out the money.

You know, the other party could have secretly accepted the money without anyone knowing.

This organization called [Newspaper] is more disciplined than he imagined.

The old man poked his head out of the window, made sure there was no one around, and whispered:

“Guest, rest assured, the newspaper is always worthy of your trust.

According to our intelligence, the crack you are about to go to will be more dangerous than you think. Of course, the greater the risk, the greater the reward.

Therefore, the members of the Black Rabbit Gang and the Wild Dog Gang would guard in front of the crack."

"Tell me more."

“The rift you are about to go to is called the Hunting Ground, and it is a blade-phase rift.

Large cracks are the highest level E-level cracks. First-level extraordinary people can enter, with a maximum of fifty people. At the same time, there is also a supervisor who can join the monster camp.

The crack will open at 12 noon tomorrow.

Of course, this is information you should know.”

Hunting ground...Chen Qi took note of this. He was impressed by this type of crack.

The old man took out a newspaper and continued:

"The following information will cost a little money.

According to dusty archives, this crack was opened ten years ago. At that time, a powerful gang leader discovered a hidden treasure guarded by monsters in the crack.

Unfortunately, the gang leader consumed too much energy and was eventually defeated by the monster guarding the treasure and died in the crack.

Later, the crack distortion dropped to zero and closed permanently. The treasure became completely unobtainable and the incident was gradually forgotten. "

"And now, the wind of the tide has blown away the dusty fog, and many things buried by history have reappeared."

Then, the old man looked at the fully armed treasure hunter in the distance:

"That's why there are so many people in this crack. Among those heading to the crack this time, there are many experienced hunters."

"According to my guess, those lone travelers ahead and the mysterious cloaked man you just met, as expected, are all here for that treasure."
