Chapter 182 Yzaks’ Method of Making Money

In an open area with a good view outside the town of Rumbel, Hao Ren and the others gathered together again after finishing their half-day exploration.

It's still a little time before noon, and Betsy won't come over yet, so the few of them started to exchange information.

Vivian went to the tallest spire building in the town. As she expected, it was the seat of the church. The Huiyao Sect spread across three continents in the world, especially in Huozhou, which was the birthplace of the church. In the Kingdom of Erleta, churches can be found in basically any larger town. As an out-of-town tourist, Vivian talked with the clergy in the church for a while, and successfully obtained some information based on her experience and eloquence of traveling around the country for many years.

"The Laita Rune has been lost," Vivian said, surprising Hao Ren. "The locals call that thing 'ancient writing' or 'ancient heraldry.' I talked to the clergy in the church about it. Regarding the Leta runes, I found that they don’t know how to use these characters at all - in theory, the clergy should be the people with the highest level of education here, but they don’t understand it, let alone the civilians."

"Lost writing?" Hao Ren felt incredible, "Then what we see on the exterior walls of the buildings in the town is..."

"It's a good sign," Vivian shrugged dumbfounded, "those spelling errors and irregular writing methods have been explained, because modern people can't understand the meaning and grammar of those symbols at all, they completely follow the ancient They just copied the little bits and pieces of information handed down from that time on the wall. Most of them were copied from ancient ruins or ancient books that no one knew anymore. They were pretty sure they were good sentences, so they used them accordingly. They felt These things can pray for blessings and keep safe, just like the blessing talismans posted under the eaves during the New Year in some rural areas in China. Now these are the only things that have been handed down from the Laita runes. I even think that the rune inheritance on earth is worse than It needs to be complete - at least the witcher knows how to use the symbols."

"Wait... Leta Rune... Horleta Kingdom..." Nangong Wuyue suddenly remembered something and looked like he suddenly realized, "That's right! I heard something in a school-like place in the town. That While I was taking a history class, I mentioned that the Kingdom of Horleta was inherited from an ancient civilization. Could it be that the Leta runes were left behind by that ancient civilization? The name of this country now seems to be related to that."

"It should be about the same," Vivian nodded. "I can't ask too much about many common-sense things, but from the few words of the clergy, I can tell that they have a deep understanding of the 'legitimacy' and 'antiqueness' of the Horleta Kingdom. We take it very seriously. This country should be the oldest country in the world. Considering the annihilation event that year, the current Horleta Kingdom may really be the remnants of ancient civilization..."

Yzaks suddenly interjected: "It's not necessarily a residue, it should just be something inherited."

Hao Ren glanced at him: "What did you find out?"

"The history of the Kingdom of Horleta is more than three thousand years, which is far shorter than the historical years since the ancient world destruction event," Yzaks chuckled, "They should have inherited something from the ruins. As for the ancient times, It’s hard to say who is the direct heir to civilization. Forget it, these are details. I have good news: now we are not short of money.”

As Yzaks spoke, he took out a bulging little cloth bag from behind and opened it in front of Hao Ren and the others. It was filled with all kinds of shiny coins, including Jina whom Hao Ren knew, and some who looked like Thin copper coins with smaller denominations, as well as precious metal coins that looked quite valuable at first glance, were exquisite in shape and made of exquisite materials. These shiny things immediately dazzled the eyes of several people present. Yzaks also laughed: " I don’t know if I’ve been tricked by others, but these should be enough for a while, and the fat boss seemed very distressed when he paid for it..."

Hao Ren suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and looked at the giant man in disbelief: "You must have gone to block the road and rob, right?!"

This is of course impossible given Y'zaks's "good guy" personality, but the problem is that the big bag of coins in front of him is so impactful. Apart from blocking the road and robbing Hao Ren, he really can't think of how to survive even basic social common sense. What if the big devil still believes in the theory that "a hero will not refuse windfall" to make so much money in a different world in half a day without any money...

As a result, Yizhak suddenly became unhappy: "Who do you think I am? How could I do such a thing if I am upright? I sold this weapon in exchange for it."

"Weapons?" Hao Ren was shocked.

Yzaks took off his backpack from behind (although Hao Ren was responsible for carrying most of the luggage, the honest-minded devil still brought a backpack as a habit), and then dug out two strange-looking daggers from inside: "This is it."

Several people looked at these two strange daggers curiously. They were said to be daggers, but in fact they just had the shape of daggers. Their material was not metal, but some kind of dark substance that looked like stone. , the entire dagger is polished with this stone, and no traces of firing or welding can be seen. A thin layer of black mist floated slowly around the blade. When Hao Ren focused his eyes on the black mist, he felt as if his spirit was involuntarily sucked in. The plain, dull and unusual-looking The blunt blade also seemed to have some kind of magic power. The longer he stared at it, the faster the black mist on the blade seemed to spin.

Nangong Wuyue picked up a dagger out of curiosity, and immediately felt a burst of heat spreading down her wrist throughout her body. She was so frightened that she quickly threw the evil thing to the ground.

"Is this...the devil's stone?!" Hao Ren looked at it for a long time and finally vaguely recognized the materials of the two swords.

"Yes, it's that stone," Yzaks nodded. "After I brought that thing back from England, I've been thinking about what it could be used for. After all, it takes up so much space in the house. It's hard to throw it away. I thought it was a waste - and then I just couldn't find a job and had some free time, so I just smashed it into pieces and made some gadgets. At first, I used two kitchen knives, but Vivian thought it was too heavy, so she decided to I got two shovels, but they were not as useful as the ones sold in supermarkets. Then I had to make a dagger like this. I thought we couldn’t tell when we would need it when we went out. Don’t look at me as unprofessional. But I know a little bit about how to make demonic weapons. Although it is stone, it is not brittle at all. After being treated with magic energy, it is much stronger and more durable than ordinary steel. I have observed the human equipment in this world, and ordinary blacksmiths are absolutely There is no weapon comparable to this thing."

Hao Ren: "...I'll go! You sold a magic sword to the locals?!"

"It's not that serious," Y'zaks waved his hand, "I've dealt with all the negative energy in the stones. These things are just solid enchanted weapons at best. I found the weapons shop in the town and said that I got it from a certain place. I found a weapon in a ruins that I couldn't use, and wanted to exchange it for some money - and then sold it for a large sum of money."

Hao Ren looked at Yzaks in surprise: "Are you familiar with this process?"

Y'zaks chuckled: "I used to have teams of brave men come to my site to cause trouble. There are many old houses there. I found that human brave men especially like to take the broken copper from those old houses." I scavenge the scrap metal and sell it outside for money. Sometimes when there are more people here, I can give the city cleaner a two-day holiday - and then I learn the process of making a fortune as a human brave."

Everyone: "..."

Now Hao Ren is particularly curious about what Yzaks did in his hometown back then! In addition to thinking of ways to improve the moral level of his compatriots all day long, he is also responsible for acting as a boss to increase reputation and equipment for the locals?

Anyway, the problem of travel expenses has finally been solved. As for how to spend money in this world... just wait until you get familiar with the prices. At this time Lily tugged on Hao Ren's sleeve: "Landlord, let's have something to eat first."

After Lily reminded her, Hao Ren realized that he was also feeling a little hungry. He suddenly felt that he didn't understand: "Wait a minute... why do we have to eat here?"

"You're not talking nonsense," the data terminal was still soaking in the pot as a revolving door for the little mermaid, but its voice came out, "Where are you without food?"

"Didn't the rest of us mentally enter the dream plane?" Hao Ren felt very unbelievable. "Our bodies are lying down in the real world. What kind of energy do we replenish by eating?"

"Who told you that you are pure spiritual beings in the dream plane? You are also entities here! When you enter the dream plane, it is equivalent to creating a copy here that is exactly the same as the real world. Of course, you also need to Eat and sleep to maintain activity. Of course, because the body outside also has an impact, your body consumption here will be slower. Normally, one meal a day is enough - Lily is like this because she is used to shouting Hungry."

Hao Ren was stunned. He vaguely felt that he was getting closer to the truth about the Dream Plane.
