The Storm Mercenary Regiment's leader frowned, "How's it going? How much did we sell?"
A young mercenary hesitated before saying, "We only sold less than one-tenth of the goods. And it's getting harder and harder to sell now."
"How could this be?" The mustached man murmured, "Is it because of those families?"
"Well …" The young mercenary nodded slowly, "Although most of the goods we brought from Hengcheng aren't available in Lindong, those big forces brought more goods than us. They've occupied most of the market in Lindong. We're really …"
In terms of strength, those families were much stronger than mercenary regiments like them. They didn't have the confidence to compete for the market.
The young mercenary didn't say anything … They were mercenaries, not businessmen. They weren't good at doing business.
The mustached man looked a little lost.
The remaining two carts of goods could be said to carry all of his hopes. He risked everything to follow the military convoy to Lindong in order to seek a breakthrough. If he failed this time, not only would he lose a lot of wealth, but even the entire mercenary corps would likely fall apart.
"Those families …" The mustached man clenched his fist, but then loosened it.
The structure of the entire Hengcheng Shelter was similar to Lindong. His Storm Mercenary Regiment was also ranked at the top of the mercenary world. If not, they wouldn't be qualified to follow the military convoy this time.
This trip wasn't easy. The road was dangerous. Even the military had to be careful. Other forces joined the convoy. According to the strength of the hunters sent by each force, the goods carried were limited. His Storm Mercenary Regiment took out dozens of hunters to have a share of five trucks.
Of course, there were only two trucks left, and less than half of the mercenary regiment made it to Lindong alive.
However, the strength of the Storm Mercenary Regiment could only be considered ordinary in this convoy. In the mercenary world, only the first and second ranked mercenary regiments could be called big forces. In addition, there were some high-ranking forces in the shelter. Such big forces weren't something the Storm Mercenary Regiment could afford to offend.
Even if their goods were scarce, Lindong's market was also limited. The richest one was the Lindong military. However, the supplies the Lindong military needed had already been exchanged with the Hengcheng military. The rest of the major forces occupied most of Lindong's market. They didn't even give them a drop of soup.
"Brother Yang, Brother Gao …"
In the distance, two people walked over together. They were also the leaders of the forces he was relatively familiar with. However, to Little Beard's surprise, there was no worry on their faces. It seemed that they were not worried about the sale of their goods.
"Brothers, what are you doing?" The man with the mustache hurriedly stopped them. "Could it be that you have a way to sell the goods?"
One of them pretended to look around and carefully moved closer to the mustache man. "Captain Storm, we have indeed thought of a way. Considering our friendship, we will tell you this secret. Remember, don't tell anyone else."
"Definitely, definitely …"
"Think about it, Lindong's market has been occupied, but in the Lincheng area, in addition to Lindong, there are many small and medium-sized shelters. These shelters are naturally far from being comparable to Lindong, but there are many of them. This is also a big market."
"I've already inquired about it. In the southeast side of Lindong, there are many small and medium-sized shelters. If we take the goods there …"
The mustache man nodded again and again, he couldn't wait, "Then it's better for us three to cooperate. It's safer this way. Anyway, there are many small shelters in that area. It's enough to take all three of our goods. There's no competition between us. When the time comes, we can set a higher price together and make more money …"
"Yes, yes!"
… …
Secret Realm.
Between the cliff and the platform, there were gusts of cold wind blowing. However, at this time, many hunters had arrived on the opposite platform.
Some people tried to fly, and some tried to leap over at an extremely fast speed, but it was useless. There seemed to be an indescribable force pulling at the gap between them. No matter how confident the experts were, their faces were filled with panic, and they fell down with a plop.
But …
Tang Yu looked at the rattan under his feet, hanging between the cliff and the platform. He was speechless.
Who would've thought that crossing the gap would be as simple as walking along the rattan.
The most important thing was that these rattan were all black and completely integrated with the environment. If you don't pay attention, it's difficult to find it with the naked eye. Some people jumped into the air and fell, but accidentally landed on the rattan and was discovered.
The designer of this tomb was also very routine.
Whoosh.
Tang Yu stepped on the rattan. The wind blowing around him and the slightly swaying rattan couldn't make him sway at all.
He walked to the end of the rattan, kicked his toes, and easily jumped onto the platform. When he looked behind him, there were still many hunters carefully walking on the rattan. Some who had acrophobia could only crawl and drag … to be exact, they were dragged forward.
Some people had the idea of cutting off competitors in advance and plotted against others on the rattan. But they didn't do anything to them, which made Tang Yu a little disappointed.
Did people nowadays have such good eyesight?
Or did they think they were too few and couldn't pose a threat?
"Let's go."
Many hunters had entered the cave. Tang Yu wasn't in a hurry. With the tomb designer's routine, first come, first served? No way. I'm afraid it's not first come, first die.
The passage was winding, and from time to time, they encountered forks. It seemed to be a maze. Although they didn't encounter any traps, the complexity was even greater. Only some patterns were engraved on the stone walls on both sides. They weren't runes, but more like some beast drawings. It should be a clue to get out of the maze.
Tang Yu was confused. He left the task of solving the puzzle to his followers. He relied on the random selection method to lead the crowd forward. While observing the patterns on both sides of the stone wall, he considered it as collecting clues.
Suddenly, there was a banging sound in front of them, like the sound of a violent trampling on the ground.
"Boss, be careful. Something's coming."
A giant beast with a metallic luster appeared in everyone's sight.
The giant beast had a lot of scars on its body. Its short legs ran wildly. However, the passage was narrow for the giant beast. From time to time, the giant beast would scratch the stone walls on both sides.
Gray Blade's eyes lit up, "Boss, it's the Metal Swallowing Beast!"
Behind the Metal Swallowing Beast, a large group of hunters chased after it. The leader had a lot of flying knives floating around him. He raised his hand, and the flying knives whizzed out, turned into phantoms, and directly stabbed the back of the Metal Swallowing Beast. Even though the Metal Swallowing Beast's body was hard, the flying knives still deeply pierced it. Blood slowly flowed out.
Tang Yu was upset.
