"News about the Protoss?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned. Of course, this was very important, but he didn't expect to find news about the Protoss at this time. Moreover, it was the Jade Emperor who found it. But of course, he immediately asked, "What news?"
"Do you remember the eye-like thing you showed me last time?" asked the Jade Emperor.
"Uh … Are you talking about this thing called the Eye of Truth?" asked Li Huailin.
"Yeah, you said that this is a tool to deal with the Protoss," said the Jade Emperor.
"Yeah, but so far, I haven't found the use of this thing." Li Huailin nodded. "What's wrong? Have you found a way to use it?"
"I'm not sure, but I found something similar," said the Jade Emperor.
"Something similar?" Li Huailin touched his chin. "Summon. This thing looks like an eyeball. It should be a very common shape."
"Yeah, but it's rare to see something with almost the same shape, size, and color. After all, most people wouldn't use this thing as an ornament," said the Jade Emperor. "I'm a little curious, so I wanted to take a look."
"En." Li Huailin nodded. Indeed, although this shape was very common, most people wouldn't think of what it would be used for. Of course, what convinced Li Huailin more was the Jade Emperor's sense of smell, or the sixth sense of an expert. Although it sounded a little metaphysical, Li Huailin believed in it more.
"Is it necessary to take a look?" asked Li Huailin.
"I think it's necessary." The Jade Emperor thought for a moment, then nodded.
"En, then I'll come and see what's going on." After thinking about it, Li Huailin decided to meet the Jade Emperor first to ask about the situation. Now, as long as it was news about the Protoss, Li Huailin felt that he had to take a look, even if it was fake news.
The two of them quickly agreed on a place to meet. Of course, this time, it was Li Huailin who went to summon the Jade Emperor. The meeting place was the city of Cesidus in the middle of the continent. When Li Huailin was teleporting, he asked the staff at the Teleportation Circle next to him. He didn't know which country Cesidus belonged to, or it could be said to be a neutral city. It was originally located at the junction of the Humans, Demons, and Dwarves. This city wasn't built by any country. It was originally a market, but it slowly developed into a city. So until now, no country had decided which country it belonged to.
As Li Huailin expected, this city at the junction of the three countries was very chaotic. Originally, there was no country to control them. Now, the situation was almost constantly being occupied by all kinds of gangster organizations. Of course, these gangster organizations basically changed every year, and even changed every month. Who knew who the staff belonged to now.
However, after Li Huailin teleported to the station, he found that this place was not as chaotic as he had imagined. The entire city seemed to be in an orderly state. Looking at the situation on the streets, it was no different from a normal city. There were civilians walking around and hawkers hawking their goods everywhere. It did not feel like a city of evil. It seemed that the gangster group that had recently occupied this city had been governing it for a long time. Otherwise, it would not be so peaceful.
Li Huailin also noticed that the number of players on this street was quite high. It was obvious that there was a suitable leveling spot or Dungeon nearby for current players. In any case, this was just a relatively lively city from the outside.
After waiting for a while, the Jade Emperor arrived. He was slightly slower than Li Huailin. After the two met, they began to discuss the specifics of the situation.
"Look at this." The Jade Emperor handed Shi Feng a document. Of course, Li Huailin took it and looked at it. After looking at Li Huailin, he discovered that the document in his hand was a list of goods. Li Huailin had seen this item before. It looked a bit like a brochure that was distributed to buyers before an auction. The main purpose of the brochure was to tell buyers what to sell at the auction and for them to prepare their money.
"Is this the brochure for the auction?" Li Huailin asked.
"Almost," the Jade Emperor said. "Look here."
The Jade Emperor flipped through the brochure. When he reached a page, he pointed at a picture and said, "This thing, don't you think it looks like it?"
Li Huailin carefully looked at the picture. Yes, the first thing he saw was a golden eyeball. From the picture, it looked exactly the same as the item in Li Huailin's hand called the Eye of Truth. After looking at the detailed parameters of the item, Li Huailin discovered that the size of the item was exactly the same as the golden eyeball he had obtained. According to the description, the eyeball really could move.
Li Huailin finally understood why the Jade Emperor had attracted so much attention. He wanted to see what this item was. However, the strange thing was that the brochure introduced this eyeball-like thing as a "weapon". This was really strange. The eyeball in Li Huailin's hand didn't have any use for a long time. How could someone call this thing a weapon? Could it be that someone discovered the use of this thing that was similar to the Eye of Truth? This made Li Huailin even more curious.
"It seems that I really have to go and take a look." Li Huailin nodded. "Which auction house is it? Let's go now. "
"I don't know." The Jade Emperor spread his hands.
"Ha?" Li Huailin was a little stunned. He thought that with his identity, no matter what auction house it was, he could just ask the other party to hand over the item. However, what did the Jade Emperor mean when he said that he didn't know? Li Huailin closed the book and looked at the cover. There was indeed no auction house written on the cover. This was very strange. The general auction house would print their name on the cover. Otherwise, if they sent you this, you wouldn't know where to buy it. Wouldn't that be funny?
"This is an underground auction." The Jade Emperor said immediately. "Only certain people are invited to participate."
"Underground auction." Li Huailin nodded. It turned out that it wasn't a regular auction house. The things sold were probably shameful, such as illegally captured slaves, stolen goods, and so on. Of course, these shameful things couldn't be made public, so generally, this kind of auction would only invite some regular customers.
"How did you get this document?" Li Huailin asked immediately. Of course, these underground auctions would only give these brochures to their regular customers. How did the Jade Emperor get it?
The Jade Emperor's answer shocked Li Huailin. "I'm now a member of an evil organization, and I'm even a cadre."
"Ha?" Li Huailin was stunned. Yes, he thought that the Jade Emperor Summoning might have been a coincidence. For example, he might have defeated a few NPCs and picked up this quest item to trigger a quest. When he asked this question, he thought that the Jade Emperor Summoning might have said that he had captured a few people and asked the Jade Emperor Summoning to interrogate them. In the end, the Jade Emperor Summoning suddenly said that he was a member of an evil organization? Li Huailin really didn't come back to his senses.
"Hey, I've been a member for a long time. Look at this." The Jade Emperor said as he pointed at his chest.
Li Huailin lowered his head in a daze and looked at the Jade Emperor's chest. The scene paused for 20 seconds.
"What the f * ck are you looking at? Do you believe that I won't blind your eyes?" The Jade Emperor couldn't help but roar.
"Hey, hey, you're letting me look. What are you doing! "Li Huailin also roared.
"I'm f * cking showing you the badge on my chest, okay? What are you staring at! "
"Badge?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned. He took a closer look and realized that there was indeed a badge on the chest of the Jade Emperor. It was a small black badge with a black rose drawn on it. Li Huailin did not know if it was a rose or a rose. Anyway, Li Huailin could not recognize the species of the flower. Of course, all players could equip badges. Li Huailin himself wore the Black Awesome Badge. Although it did not take up a slot, it was very difficult to obtain. Most players would only equip their Guild Badges with them. However, Li Huailin remembered that the Jade Emperor was a solo player. He didn't join a Guild.
"I've been wearing it for almost a month. Didn't you notice?" The Jade Emperor said.
"Who the f * ck would notice? Do I usually stare at your chest?" Li Huailin facepalmed. "This is the badge of your evil organization?"
"Yes, an organization called the Black Rose Society." The Jade Emperor nodded.
"Black … Black Rose Society?" Li Huailin covered his mouth and said, trying to hold back his laughter.
"F * ck, if you want to laugh, just laugh." The Jade Emperor also facepalmed.
Yes, Li Huailin finally understood why the Jade Emperor asked him to look at the badge instead of directly saying that he had joined the Black Rose Society. The name of the organization was too embarrassing. It was simply too old-fashioned. It was hard to imagine the Jade Emperor pointing at him and saying, "I joined the Black Rose Society." It was too embarrassing.
"Okay, okay …" Li Huailin forced a smile and said seriously, "It's okay. Let's not talk about why you joined this strange society. Anyway, the current situation is that the people of this society received an invitation to the underground auction. Then, as one of the cadres of the organization, you received this brochure, right?"
"Yes." The Jade Emperor nodded. "The auction will be held tonight."
"Understood. Anyway, we just need to attend tonight, right?" Li Huailin nodded.
"It's not that simple." The Jade Emperor immediately said, "This underground auction only invites the leader of the organization. Right now, we might not be able to go together."
