Yes, this group of adventurers had no experience in finding black markets. When they went to other cities, they were completely clueless, let alone in the dark.
You can't just walk into any tavern and ask, can you?
An Yi may not have time to look for the black market in this city, but that doesn't mean he can't.
In his previous life, he didn't have a little succubus to guide him.
"The simplest way is to put a knife to the local lord's neck. This is the Demon Realm, and the lord knows about the ugly things here and will definitely participate in them, so he wouldn't be unaware of where the black market is."
Of course, I don't advocate doing this.
The second method;
The black market is like a city's sewers; the items sold there are not allowed to circulate among the demons.
For example, items that conceal magical power are generally not useful to demons. So, which demons can actually use them? This is something you need to think about and find out for yourselves.
Once you find these demons, finding the black market will be very easy.
The third method;
"You just go wherever you think it smells bad."
"Do demons also put up advertisements on their toilet doors?" Layton suddenly asked from the side.
Lycorina: "A flyer? What's that?"
An Yi: "...Shut up, all of you."
"You go where the stench is, right? I know," said Lana, the Dragon Warrior, sternly. "In other words, you can go to many demons who do similar things."
For example, human trafficking, selling rare and precious monsters, right?
An Yi nodded: "Yes."
“Okay, I understand,” Lana said.
The other heroes also looked thoughtful, considering which "stinky things" they could come into contact with.
Finally, Annie continued;
"Besides what I've said, you are free to find it in your own way."
I'm just offering suggestions; I don't want to limit your direction.
Different heroes can use different methods; they don't necessarily have to do what he says.
There really were heroes who hid in the demon lord's toilet and assassinated him. In the past ten years, there have been thousands of heroes who have done all sorts of amazing things.
Lan stood to the side, her white eyes lowered, staring at the scroll on the table, seemingly lost in thought.
After thinking for a long time, her eyes regained their sparkle, as if she had found the answer.
She had a premonition that after leaving this time and returning, she would be able to understand the demon race as well as An Yi.
At least……
They should be able to understand some of the rules for surviving among the demons.
On the last day before they split up, Layton suggested that everyone go out for a nice meal, with good food and drinks.
I still have the money An Yi brought back last time, so I should be able to afford a meal, right?
However, when they arrived at the restaurant and the demon waiter brought out a pile of mud with rolling eyes, the heroes realized that they really needed some time to adapt to the demons...
Seeing that Annie ate it without batting an eye, Lycorina also tentatively took a bite.
An Yi: "Is it delicious?"
Lycorina: "...It doesn't taste good."
The mask of pain.
Chapter 160 Disaster? (4k)
Going out for a meal made the heroes suddenly realize that they had to find a way to adapt to life without supplies among the demons.
An Yi was only looking to obtain a hidden item that could be used early on, while most heroes considered this their initial test.
In their view, even if these three cities were predicted, it does not mean that the predictions were accurate.
Moreover, even if the information is accurate, they might not be able to see through the other party's disguise.
They are not An Yi; they can't be said to be completely ignorant of [Formlessness], but it's more accurate to say they know nothing about it.
In this situation, they went to another city on their own and were asked to find a demon who could freely change his size and appearance. How could they find one?
It was precisely because it was so difficult that the heroes understood it as just a training exercise to adapt to the demon race.
Moreover, moving within the territory of low-level demons poses no danger to the heroes at this stage.
The mission is just to give the heroes a goal; it doesn't matter if they fail to complete it.
Of course, it would be best if we could complete it.
It seems that apart from An'i, no hero truly believes they can find this "Lord of No Form".
An Yi's [Sword Heart] can see through [Formless]'s disguise. As long as he can see the other party, he can instantly discover the other party's identity.
Although I didn't obtain the [Formless] in my previous life, and didn't even see the Lord of the Formless, but...
He'd seen him in the game!
Moreover, it's actually better if you haven't seen it before. When you do see it, you can immediately unlock its image in the encyclopedia, which is equivalent to the system notifying you of its identity.
Incidentally, even if other heroes besides An'i meet the [Lord of No Form], they will only unlock the monster illustrations that the Lord of No Form is disguising.
An Yi, on the other hand, will directly display the other party's original race.
At this very moment;
The warriors split into three groups, and it would take some time before they reached their respective cities.
Most warriors have a somewhat lacking Agility stat, which is not very useful in cities, but becomes very useful when traveling.
I hadn't used up much stamina or magic over the past two weeks, so I had stockpiled all the food.
Some brave souls initially thought that with such convenient resupply, they would never run out of food.
However, if nothing unexpected happens, this trip will consume all the resources.
During the time the heroes were on their journey, an urgent letter was sent deep into the demon realm.
The heroes have been in the demon realm for half a week, and they still haven't reached their target city. Meanwhile, the letter has already been delivered with great urgency to the incredibly fast-moving Winged People...
……
[Report, Mother, I've met the Sword Master!]
Upon seeing the letter, Mel's mind went blank, and her eyes, which had always exuded charm, widened instantly.
Sword... Sword Master?!
They've already joined the Demon Realm?!
Mel first glanced at the various reports on the table, then looked up at the other two succubi guarding the sides of the room.
The two succubi noticed each other's gaze. It was the first time they had seen their "mother" so flustered, so they looked at her with some confusion.
"Mother?" Jiu
"It's nothing," Mel said, realizing his lapse in composure, raising his hand before returning his gaze to the letter.
Master has entered demon territory?! Target
Why haven't we received a single word about it?!
Why haven't I received any relevant intelligence from my subordinates?
Given the Saintess Squad's status in human territory, news of their infiltration of the Demon Realm should have spread throughout the entire world.
Before questioning his subordinates' abilities, Mel first doubted the authenticity of the letter. (Three)
Did the succubus who sent the letter really meet her master?
Putting aside her belief that her subordinates were exceptionally capable, the complete lack of any information from the humans was another key factor that made her suspicious. *Sigh*
Mel held the letter in one hand and rested the other on his forehead, staring intently at the letter before him.
The two succubi beside her were getting increasingly puzzled. Usually, their mother would place the letter on the table and then calmly read it.
They had never seen them so tense before.
Could it be that something major has happened to the organization?
The two succubi dared not ask any more questions or think any further.
Even if things change, as Mel's most trusted confidantes, they should remain even more calm in this situation.
Mel looked at the letter in his hand and read it over and over again.
Read carefully, then read casually; sometimes a casual glance can reveal problems that a careful reading might miss.
But... no matter how many times you read it, the letter is perfectly normal.
From the moment Becky discovers the hero, to recognizing An Yi, then conducting an investigation, being discovered by An Yi, and finally passing her test.
Then he went to the black market and bought items that concealed magical power, which he wrote down in the letter.
At the end of the letter, Annie asked Becky to convey that he should not be addressed as "Sword Master".
As for the purpose, there was no explanation.
Furthermore, the exact number of heroes was not specified, nor was their purpose stated, perhaps because it was impossible to investigate in such depth.
It must be said that the little succubus who sent the letter was very clever, especially since she stayed at home for a few days and it would have been difficult to gain the other party's trust even if she had just taken a step out.
She didn't presumptuously test the other party, which was the smartest thing to do.
While dancing, this also reminded Mel of something.
If Qi meets An Yi, how can she gain his trust?
How could Lu gain An Yi's trust within the entire organization?
It's normal for the other side to become more wary during this period when there has been no contact between the two sides.
Oh, no, it's more accurate to say that the other party may not have fully trusted me from the very beginning.
