Chapter 326: Magic Eye (3k)
"You shouldn't be the type with much courage; to dare to come here directly to find me at a time like this, I suppose there must be other big shots trading with you?"
Bai Cangshu checked the quotes in the stall and teased the Black Butler who had come to his side.
The Black Butler looked a bit awkward, but he still nodded.
"That's right, I am conveying a message to you on behalf of the 【Throne of Void and Reality】; even the End Empire would not hold me accountable for this."
A special card appeared in his hand; one side was completely black, and the other was completely white. Through the refraction of light on the all-white side, one could see a magnificent and glorious palace, appearing faintly.
And on the all-black side, there was only an emerald-colored number engraved in the center—【no. 13】.
Bai Cangshu looked at this card and inexplicably thought of the 【Cards】 he had already obtained three of; regardless of size or style, they had a certain degree of similarity.
Seeming to see through Bai Cangshu's thoughts, the Black Butler explained softly:
"Many people believe that those 【Cards】 of special sequences are special items crafted by the master of the 【Throne of Void and Reality】, and this kind of card is the identity badge for official members of the 【Throne of Void and Reality】..."
His eyes were complex, and his tone was also somewhat wistful.
Tao Baibai was a "super rookie" he had watched rise; although he wasn't sure before, with more and more information revealed now, he had been able to roughly reconstruct the other party's mission trajectory.
After entering the space, he encountered the temporary squad where the Moon Demon and Flame Demon were located; not only did he successfully survive the mission of the opposing faction, but he also caused that temporary squad to lose a veteran Reincarnator like 【Magic Mountain】;
Subsequently, during the Moon Demon's pursuit, he rose rapidly through several missions, leading along the way to the deaths of a series of somewhat famous Reincarnators such as 【Kai】, 【Flame Demon】, 【Liulishi】, 【Jiebo】, and 【Evil Child】, and thwarted the mysterious 【White Face】. Now, it is even rumored that he joined forces with 【Crimson Night】 to severely damage the Reincarnators of the End Empire in the Myanmar North region.
The Title-level Reincarnator 【Qicai Modao Qilinsi】 has been confirmed to have fallen.
In just a few missions' time, Tao Baibai grew from a rookie into an Elite Reincarnator that no one could ignore anymore, causing the strongest to issue a bounty.
Now, he has even gained the appreciation of the 【Throne of Void and Reality】, which wants to incorporate him into the organization to become an official member.
"The Throne of Void and Reality is one of the top-tier Gatherings in the entire space; in a sense, it is no problem to call it the most powerful Gathering."
The Black Butler explained solemnly to Bai Cangshu.
"Note, I am not talking about the East District; the influence of the Throne of Void and Reality spans all four major districts of the Reincarnation Space!"
"It is rumored that the Throne of Void and Reality is divided into three major clusters: the Feicui Jijun, the Baiyin Jijun, and the most powerful Golden Battle Group."
"The vast majority of members belong to the Baiyin Jijun. All members have strength between the 【Bing】 rank and the 【Xiong】 rank. There are many personnel, estimated to be over a thousand. Almost everyone who actively applies to join the 【Throne of Void and Reality】 and passes is assigned to this cluster."
"As for the Golden Battle Group, it only has a scale of 10 people. Each one is a top-tier Reincarnator, each carrying a number, known as Seat Officers."
Just by looking at the Black Butler's expression, Bai Cangshu knew that this 【Throne of Void and Reality】, which he had heard of all along, was indeed a behemoth.
An Elite cluster of over a thousand people—this scale was quite terrifying. When Bai Cangshu joined the Gathering 【Red Lotus】 of Honglian Modao Luoxi, there were about eighty people, and it was still of the kind where the good and the bad were mixed.
If over a thousand Elite Reincarnators caused trouble together in the real world, Bai Cangshu could imagine that scene.
He examined the emerald color on that number and replied:
"So they want me to join that Feicui Jijun now?"
Bai Cangshu's words carried a mocking tone. The Black Butler thought Tao Baibai felt looked down upon and immediately explained:
"The Feicui Jijun is a cluster specifically for the 【Throne of Void and Reality】 to cultivate potential rookies. The number of people is very small; you would only be the 13th person to join. The Feicui Jijun is the candidate pool for the Golden Battle Group, capable of obtaining great Intelligence support and enjoying almost all the Permissions of the Gathering."
"Tao Baibai, this is an opportunity that the vast majority of Reincarnators seek but cannot get!"
The Black Butler was a bit anxious. He was indeed envious. In his view, most of the many Gatherings in the space only served the purpose of exchanging Intelligence. The instability of personnel, and even the instability of the high-level management, made these Gatherings disappear without knowing which day it would be.
Perhaps in the next mission, the Gathering leader might offend someone, and the entire Gathering would be hunted down.
Personnel instability leads to the inability to upgrade the Gathering level, and members cannot enjoy the effects of facilities including the 【Warehouse】 and 【Gathering Training Institute】.
But the 【Throne of Void and Reality】 and 【Blue Sky】 were the two Gatherings he most wanted to join—powerful and stable.
Bai Cangshu gave a dry laugh and did not respond further.
Looking at the emerald no. 13 identity badge in his hand, the Black Butler truly had the urge to replace him. With this identity badge, in many cases, even in team missions, it was equivalent to having a "get out of jail free" card; no one was willing to offend the 【Throne of Void and Reality】.
Even the 【End Empire】, which now had an unimaginably large number of personnel, might not be willing to fall out with the 【Throne of Void and Reality】 for the sake of one or two Title-level Reincarnators' lives.
"Tao Baibai, do you really not understand the value of this invitation!"
The Black Butler was rarely angry, but Bai Cangshu just waved his hand, signaling that the other party could leave.
He sat in front of his stall, looking through the quotes, when suddenly, he saw one of them.
【vh14421985 sent a quote: I want to exchange a Magic Eye for your Uchiha Obito Drop Card】
He immediately contacted the other party, and this person happened to be in the space as well. Soon, under the gaze of many Reincarnators, he came to the stall.
Bai Cangshu looked up. This was a Reincarnator with the image of a middle-aged man wearing a red suit jacket, pot-bellied, with a quite receding hairline.
Few Reincarnators would make their Avatar in this "realistic" style, but it had to be said that the recognizability was indeed good.
Looking at Bai Cangshu's Avatar, he also gave a dark click of his tongue.
"Tao Baibai, your style of creating an Avatar is a bit radical~"
He also noticed the Black Butler who had not yet left and greeted him with a smile.
"Black Butler, this is also your customer? It seems your eye for talent is indeed good."
The Black Butler collected his thoughts, nodded respectfully to him, and then said to Bai Cangshu:
"This gentleman is 【Thousand Illusion Magic Eye】 【Wujunchuo】, a Title-level Reincarnator, belonging to the 【Evil King True Eye】 Gathering. He is a person with both strength and credibility."
The Black Butler clearly thought highly of this person, which made Bai Cangshu nod. Whether it was the code name that sounded like a real name or the Gathering name 【Evil King True Eye】, the other party was quite intriguing.
"What kind of Magic Eye do you intend to use to exchange for that Drop Card?"
Bai Cangshu completed the 【Thousand Eyes】 Milestone in the Naruto World, thus opening a special Biological Colonization Slot. He could directly install those Magic Eyes in the center of his forehead to exert their effects without having to dig out his own eyeballs for transplantation.
Therefore, he hoped to obtain a usable eye to enhance his strength.
Those eyes in the Naruto World basically all required the use of Chakra. In his normal state, he had no Chakra in his body, so whether it was the Sharingan or the Byakugan, they were of little use.
Wujunchuo nodded, light flickering in his hands. He spread his hands out in front of Bai Cangshu. Bai Cangshu was startled to see that in the other party's palms, there were actually all special eyes.
"Hehe, I am very interested in Magic Eyes, so I specifically collected some."
Bai Cangshu took another look at the other party. Combined with the other party's title, he guessed that the other party probably had some kind of special ability to use various Magic Eyes at will.
He focused his gaze on those eyes.
The 【Scarlet Eyes】 from the 【Hunter World】;
Three Gem Magic Eyes from the Type-Moon World;
The Strongest Eye from the Fullmetal Alchemist World;
The Illusion-Breaking Pupil from the Basilisk World;
And the God's Artificial Eye from Blood Blockade Battlefront, along with a few other eyes blocked behind them whose information could not be seen.
These precious Biological Colonization Armors, rarely seen in daily life, appeared in such large numbers all at once, drawing gasps from the surrounding crowd.
But neither Bai Cangshu nor Wujunchuo had any intention of keeping them secret.
"How about it? My collection is not bad, right?"
Wujunchuo had a humorous personality and was deliberately showing off at this moment.
Bai Cangshu withdrew his gaze, thought for a moment, and said,
"I think it's average."
"I was hoping you could bring out eyes like the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception or the All-Seeing Eye of the God."
Wujunchuo's expression stiffened, and he retorted irritably,
"Are those things something that can be traded for a pair of Sharingan?!"
Bai Cangshu smiled brightly.
"In that case, you also know the method for specifically obtaining the items you want, right?"
"If that's the case, I cannot sell this Drop Card containing Kamui cheaply."
Wujunchuo's face twitched twice; knowing he had let something slip and that Tao Baibai was going to raise the price on the spot, he couldn't help but look at the Black Butler, but the Black Butler just shrugged his shoulders, signaling that he had no way to help—Tao Baibai was just that kind of troublesome guy.
——
Just as Bai Cangshu and Wujunchuo were haggling, the Team Space that once belonged to Garou Legend was already empty; a woman wearing a green long dress took one last look at this space that she felt nostalgic for, then turned and left.
With the last member exiting the team, Garou Legend was officially disbanded.
The woman arrived at a new Gathering, where many people smiled and welcomed her.
"Flower Fairy, we just received news that that guy Luo Xi seems to have placed his bets on Tao Baibai."
"Ha~ is he clutching at straws? It seems we will be able to obtain that key very soon."
Seven or eight Reincarnators were laughing loudly; only a man leaning against a window in the distance, wearing a black jacket and an out-of-place scarf around his neck, did not laugh, his expression very calm.
"Lord Sage, that Tao Baibai... I feel he is not simple..."
Flower Fairy spoke, but the man did not look at her; he did not value someone who had betrayed their team and murdered their Captain, merely saying,
"I know that is Luo Xi's trap, but it doesn't matter; we shall simply crush it."
