Departure: Shack Area!

Cheng Shi is already working.

After a brief heart-to-heart with the two Fire-Spreaders, the group of three set off again, starting to continue digging for other clues of the trial, and their destination was the shack area known to be controlled by the Brotherhood of Extreme Desire.

Before setting off, the blind man did a divination as usual. The content was whether the shack area would find clues. The result of the divination was very pleasing. The full-point die was almost like clearly stating that Aromani was the "discrepancy" in that midnight stroll conversation.

So a joyful Cheng Shi took two Fire-Spreaders and set off toward the shack area.

Don't ask why he was joyful; if you ask, it's praise 【Fate】!

The inn where they were was still some distance from the shack area. The three walked all the way, looking at the scenery here, listening to the passersby talking, and seeing countless orange-yellow small ball flowers dotted on both sides of the street, it was quite a vibrant look.

Actually, the shack area was not a nickname given to this area by players; this was its real name, and the locals all called it that.

The buildings in this area were almost all shacks. Broken walls could be used as walls, and tree branches and grass leaves could cover the roof. Just a pile of dry grass on the ground counted as a bed. If one pulled a piece of light gauze at the door, then the looming people in the room became the most attractive scenery in this shack area.

This was probably the most joyful place in the Gate of Downward Fall. Every local Cheng Shi chatted with on this road had a smile from the heart when mentioning this area.

It could be seen that 【Filthy Fall】 was not shouted and beaten by everyone here like on the surface; His will had a good market underground.

There were still a few dirt houses and mud huts on the periphery of the shack area. After bypassing these buildings that looked like sentry posts, a piece of rotten ruins came into the eyes of the three. Although they had made enough psychological preparations on this road, they were still shocked to the point of being speechless when they saw this scene.

The place was really broken, and the people were really white... actually not just white. You could see all kinds of people here, but it was very difficult to correspond these people who used to wear local characteristic costumes with the various bodies flashing by before their eyes.

Of course, gender was even harder to correspond.

After observing for a while and failing to successfully classify the few people before them, the three gave up.

This place was too magical. People were sunbathing everywhere in broad daylight.

Cheng Shi and Qin Xin, two big men, looked with frowning brows, while the blind man looked as if she saw nothing, with an indifferent face.

"The heartbeats of the two are accelerating. It seems the scene before our eyes is more unbearable than I imagined."

"..."

"..."

May I ask Miss Prophet, how did you imagine it? Is it the kind of imagination where the prophecy directly enters the consciousness? Then may I ask, what is the reference for you to imagine these messy things?

If there is no reference, probably can't imagine these messy things, right?

Cheng Shi smiled politely and didn't ask this offensive question, but he was still very curious about what this place looked like in the 【Fate】 vision of the blind man. Just as he was struggling with whether to ask, Qin Xin beside him opened his mouth first.

"What did you see?"

This sounded quite offensive, but actually, the three people present all understood. Qin Xin was just asking for clues. From the moment they left the inn, the blind man had already used "peeling the cocoon and drawing the silk" on Aromani, and this road was also walked by her leading the two.

"Desire."

"Rich desire is surging and overflowing like mud, and the silk threads of 【Fate】 have also been dragged into the quagmire of desire and become completely muddy, making it very difficult for me to see His guidance clearly. Next, we perhaps need to take the initiative to ask a little about Xilolin from the people here. Two, who goes?"

Not bad, the primary goal of the three was the actual controller of this area, Arad's sister, Xilolin.

As the agent of the Brotherhood of Extreme Desire here, she was probably one of the people most familiar with the shack area, and she should hold countless news and intelligence of the Gate of Downward Fall in her hands, and should also know a little about Aromani's past. No matter from which aspect, she was the best breakthrough to solve the problem.

After the blind man asked this question, the two men clearly fell silent.

To tell the truth, players had long been used to all kinds of strange and bizarre scenes in the trial, especially peak players. Their scores were all piled up from game after game of trials, so they already had a certain immunity to many big scenes.

But today, it was really not easy to make a move.

As for the reason...

Qin Xin's sharp gaze swept across the area before him again, and his expression was slightly stiff: "I suggest we still walk inside first, and then find someone to ask for directions."

"Seconded!"

Cheng Shi nodded fiercely and walked forward first, but after taking two steps, he suddenly turned back and looked at Qin Xin with a trace of shock in his eyes.

Qin Xin smiled and didn't say anything, leading the two to walk forward together.

The blind man was a bit confused. In her cognition, the forces entrenched in one place must be more loyal the closer they were to the center of power, so naturally, it would be harder to ask for effective information from their mouths, so why not find a few minions on the periphery to test first?

She asked this question, and Cheng Shi's answer was quite short.

"They might not have time

"They might be busy."

"?" The Blind One paused, instantly realizing something, then shook her head and laughed, "Apologies, the desires flowing here are too viscous, causing my perception of the surroundings to dull. I didn't hear those seductive sounds, and I thought..."

Cheng Shi twitched the corner of his mouth: "I didn't hear them either, but if you want to experience the heat here, you might as well walk two steps forward and see."

The Blind One frowned, and just as she was about to step forward, Qin Xin pressed her shoulder.

"I filtered out some of the noise. Trust me, you don't want to hear these... cries."

After saying this, he smiled at Cheng Shi, pointed ahead, and said: "There is a... er, leisurely lady over there. Cheng Shi, you might as well go ask her."

Cheng Shi followed Qin Xin's gaze and discovered that inside a shack on the side of the narrow street, there indeed sat a woman holding her forehead with a pained expression. A colorful veil wrapped her figure in an exceptionally hot manner, and her sitting posture happened to be extremely bold; the whole person looked like the very definition of desire.

In the past, Cheng Shi would have handled such a minor, non-dangerous task of gathering information without hesitation, rarely refusing, but this time...

He retreated a step, nudged Qin Xin forward with his shoulder, and chuckled dryly: "How about, gentleman first?"

Qin Xin smiled: "How would a gentleman go to such a place?"

"You say that, but a gentleman should come to this kind of place."

Cheng Shi curled his lip, thinking about how to reduce his connection to 【Filth and Depravity】, when unexpectedly, the smiling Blind One stepped out, directly leaving Qin Xin's protection and walking toward the direction of that lady.

She had only walked two steps when she heard the various unbearable sounds around her. Her footsteps paused slightly, a blush appeared behind her ears, and after a moment of stagnation, she took a deep breath and stepped forward again.

Qin Xin shook his head and followed helplessly, while Cheng Shi followed closely behind, terrified of having his pure soul polluted by the sounds of this 【Filth and Depravity】.

"Hello..."

The Blind One's way of greeting was completely different from Cheng Shi's. She was very friendly; seeing the other party sitting on the ground, she leaned over and crouched slightly, not triggering hostility with a condescending posture, and after getting close, she even extended her hand, showing full goodwill.

However, the sultry lady opposite her did not accept her goodwill. She made no movement, not even changing her posture, merely lifting her eyelids to open a pair of sharp eyes, quickly sizing up the Blind One from head to toe. Then, her gaze swept past the Blind One to look at Cheng Shi and Qin Xin, her brows relaxing slightly as she said:

"Smugglers? From above, or preparing to go above?

Do you have money?

Three people together will cost a large sum. Before you decide, I suggest you weigh whether there is enough money in your pockets.

My appetite is very large."

"I don't..."

"You don't count?

I see, that's fine. If the two males behind you are savage enough—forget it, just this one. If this robust male is savage enough, I can waive the fee for you." As she spoke, the lady licked the corner of her mouth and cast a hot, flirtatious wink at Qin Xin.

"..."

"..."

"..."

The scene fell silent, with only the shack lady's hot gaze lingering wantonly on Qin Xin.

The Blind One shook her head and laughed, standing up and retreating a step; the meaning was clearly to leave the battlefield to the men behind her.

Cheng Shi's face turned dark—don't ask how it turned dark, he didn't know either. In any case, the Fate Weaver took out his scalpel again, feeling that solving the problem with violence was simpler. However, just as he wanted to throw the scalpel, Qin Xin moved.

He lunged forward, grabbed the shack lady by the collar, lifted her straight up above his head until she hit the shack's fragile grass roof, and pulled out a gentle smile, saying:

"Is this savage enough, miss?"
