Chapter 418 Detailed Map
Chen Yu couldn't help frowning, these two guys were too domineering, always ready to kill at the drop of a hat.
But just as he was about to step forward to intervene, an arrow suddenly shot out from a house behind him.
The man holding the large saber had his neck pierced in an instant and fell down, while the other burly man's eyes widened dramatically, and before he could react, two more arrows were shot out.
Chen Yu's mouth fell open in shock; he hadn't expected this seemingly harmless little boy to have such a trick up his sleeve.
The next moment, two men rushed out from the house behind, disposed of the two strong men's corpses, and took all of their belongings.
Chen Yu immediately understood the business model of this shop.
Even if the map was sold at a high price, how much could they really earn? What they sold was perhaps a degree of respect.
If someone like Chen Yu threw down money generously, they would not only hand over the map with both hands but also provide some key items.
But if someone was as unreasonable and overbearing as those two big men, wanting to kill for the map, then they would end up with nothing, neither money nor lives.
Jin Lingsu was stunned by this series of actions.
She had mixed in the underworld too, but even she was not as ruthless and decisive as this little boy.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Chen Yu raised his eyebrows and returned to the stall.
"Kid, this map only marks the macro coordinates and lacks detailed annotations, do you have a more accurate one, like an internal structural diagram of the ancient city of Mutuo?"
As soon as he asked this, Jin Lingsu froze.
Chen Yu was plainly courting death.
The ancient city of Mutuo was one of the most famous ancient cities in the world, and both the legends about it and its internal structure were extremely mysterious.
It was impossible for anyone in this world to have access to its internal structural diagrams.
Unless they were descendants of the ancient city.
But those people had been extinct since the last century.
Even if such structural diagrams existed, they would be extremely precious, not something that could be handed over so easily.
Jin Lingsu subconsciously looked beside Chen Yu, her hand gripping the golden spike at her waist, ready to act at the first sign of trouble.
To her surprise, the little boy's face broke into a radiant smile, and he took out an exquisite leather scroll from his body.
"Of course, there is! But the price is a bit steep, big brother can make an offer, but if it doesn't meet our standards, then you will have to die here."
Chen Yu laughed heartily, seeming completely oblivious to the threat in the boy's words. Continue reading on empire
"The team I've assembled this time is very large, and should be able to enter the ancient city of Mutuo smoothly. If you're willing, you can follow me, and take whatever you want from inside."
The boy's eyes lit up with no hesitation, and he handed the leather scroll over immediately.
"Then let's consider this a deal, but you need to leave something with me as security. In case we don't find what we want, it wouldn't be right to give away a map for nothing, would it?"
Chen Yu nodded and took out a banknote with a face value of one hundred million from his body and placed it on the table.
"This should be enough, shouldn't it?"
The boy examined the banknote, "Enough!"
Chen Yu grabbed the leather scroll and opened it to look. What was recorded on it was the detailed labyrinth map of the ancient city of Mutuo.
With this, the entire ancient city was in the palm of his hand.
The little boy collected the map from the stall and immediately blew a whistle. Behind him, more than a dozen strongly built men walked out of the room.
These men were dressed in ethnic attire and were all very tall, averaging over two meters in height, with the tallest one reaching three meters.
Chen Yu inhaled sharply, relieved that he had not looked for trouble with the little boy like the previous two men had.
With such a lineup, he feared that even he would be no match for them.
Without saying much more, Chen Yu found a relatively spacious farmhouse outside, and then settled everyone there.
The inn was a jumble of good and bad elements, gathering so many forces. There was bound to be some enmity between them, especially Bai Menglong.
That guy's purpose here was probably not only for the treasures in the ancient city but also to test his robots.
If he went mad and randomly detonated the robots in his hand, who knows how many people would die.
As night fell, the whole town quieted down. Although caravans continued to arrive here, they did not cause too much commotion.
Chen Yu lay in bed, covering the entire town with the system so that he would be the first to know if there were any disturbances.
Just as he was preparing to sleep, a figure in black suddenly appeared at the doorway.
The man was very strange, his face twisted to the extreme as if it had been soaked in sulfuric acid.
Chen Yu jumped out of bed with caution and made his way to the door.
"Is this the place?" The sulfuric-acid-faced man's voice was very hoarse and carried an intensely thick murderous intent.
Another man in a black robe slowly walked out from a small alley beside them.
"This is it. We saw with our own eyes that kid getting the detailed map of the ancient city's underground palace during the day. If we don't grab it soon, the things inside the palace will be out of our reach."
The two men discussed some details and then directly rushed into the courtyard. But as soon as they entered, a blue-white light flashed, and their bodies began to contort rapidly before they fell to the ground.
Chen Yu's eyes were full of disdain, but he was still slightly frightened—someone had tried to assassinate him right after he had obtained the map.
If news of him getting the map spread by tomorrow, there was no telling how many people would come here looking for trouble.
"Old Luo!" Chen Yu shouted loudly, "Tell the brothers not to sleep anymore; we leave tonight."
Luo Sanpao rolled out of bed in a tumbling manner.
Having come this far, he had no doubt about Chen Yu's orders. He immediately ordered everyone to be woken up.
Before long, they set out from the town gate in a grand procession.
Snow had just arrived here today and had begun collecting supplies, and his caravan included many empty vehicles.
Enough to carry away the extra people and resources.
Everyone was very cautious, with some even muffling their mouths with cloth strips to prevent making noise.
In less than half an hour, the caravan set off majestically.
Only after traveling several dozen miles did Luo Sanpao finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Brother Chen, do we need to be this cautious? Could those guys really chase after us in the dark?"
Chen Yu's eyes narrowed, his face full of vigilance.
"That's hard to say. The things inside the ancient city are enough to drive everyone mad."
What do you think?
