Lord of Enigma - Chapter 904

[Chapter 883 Mysterious Merchant]
At midnight in the Castle of Cats, a magical corridor with quiet brilliance, a certain room suddenly opened.
Tang Qi, who had obviously never slept, walked out, looked down at the cat pattern on the pajamas, and thought about it, and changed his appearance very professionally.
The beautiful boy who never woke up within a few steps turned into a “phantom thief” in night clothes. He didn’t make any sound, nor did he alert any extraordinary creatures along the way, or the magic settings responsible for vigilance. He seemed to have a castle map in his mind. Incomparably skilled to bypass all warnings.
Tang Qi didn’t use his strength in this process, and it was purely the help of the “inner ghost” Thorpe.
Soon, just a few seconds later, a gorgeous and heavy door appeared in Tang Qi’s eyes.
To approach the portal, you must first pass through a very long corridor, although it looks normal, there are many paintings hanging on both sides, some flower pots, utensils and so on.
But naturally, he couldn’t hide from Tang Qi’s eyes. There were at least hundreds of warning, defense, and attack magic devices in the corridor.
What made Tang Qi speechless was the portal.
The reason why the portal is called “gorgeous” is very simple. There are a lot of mysterious symbols and magic runes on it.
Each represents a powerful force, and all have extraordinary origins.
Tang Qi can make a judgment by looking at it at a glance. If it is hard to break in, the legendary supernatural person is close to the cannon fodder, and the demigod level may struggle for one or two. Only the real “all spirits” have a chance to break in. The condition is that the two reliefs on that portal are not activated.
One stands for “Death” and the other for “Night”.
Even a superhuman with a little wisdom would not want to push hard.
Tang Qi twitched the corners of his mouth, complaining that the backstage of the three cat sisters was really hard enough, and then stepped into the corridor as if nothing had happened.
As expected, all early warning facilities failed.
Before Tang Qi came to the gorgeous portal, he hesitated for half a second at the three vivid “reliefs of cats” in front of him, and then spit out a secret order.
Complicated, obscure syllables, long ciphers mixed together by hundreds of languages.
However, the content is too shameful, and the translation is a series of “meow meow…”.
If there is a second choice, Tang Qi certainly wouldn’t say such a shameful secret order, but obviously not now.
He could force his way in, but he just opened the door. For this reason, it would be too extravagant to fight against the divine power of “Lady of the Night”.
As the last syllable fell, the treasury door opened silently.
Light!
The brilliance of the treasure that blinded the eyes for a short period of time poured out from the treasure house.
Tang Qi considers himself a qualified “collector”. There are not only a lot of strange objects in his collection, but also many fetish objects.
But at this moment he had to admit that Tang Qi’s collection room looked extremely shabby compared to what he saw in front of him.
Everywhere you look, there is light of strange things.
The “strange object racks” made of various materials with no end in sight are neatly arranged, and each rack has a large number of strange objects placed in different categories.
Tang Qi’s human body was like a creature from Lilliput, against the backdrop of those tall strange objects.
It was rare that he did not enter the treasure house immediately. He stopped at the door for half a second, and after getting used to the brilliance of the treasure, he stepped into it.
That is, when his feet touched the ground of the treasure house, a sharp alarm sounded in the castle.
In an instant, all devices were activated.
A large number of extraordinary creatures gathered together, and their eyes full of hostility looked at Tang Qi, who was standing in the treasure house with helpless eyes.
At the entrance of the corridor, three tall figures still wearing pajamas slowly appeared.
The three cat sisters!
At an absurd speed, Phoebes, Helena, and Selena, who were obviously still sleeping, were teleported over at the same time.
When Tang Qi saw them, the three sisters naturally also saw the beautiful boy who turned into a thief.
Surprise, anger, and disbelief appeared on the faces of the three women.
This reaction couldn’t be more normal, and Tang Qi also understood it very well. The three sisters kindly took in him, a “male prostitute” who would have been sold. Who would have thought that he would actually take revenge and come to steal the treasures in the three sisters’ treasury in the middle of the night.
Although I really wanted to call out an injustice, Tang Qi still had to follow the “script”.
He first showed a smug smile to the three sisters, and then grabbed a handful on the shelf next to him. No matter what kind of strange thing he got, he turned and fled into smoke.
Watching the shameless thief escape, the three sisters were about to react.
But at this moment, an ugly and wrinkled Shar Pei jumped out angrily.
While chasing deep into the treasure house, he turned his head and shouted at the three sisters: “Great and beautiful goddess, don’t worry, as the most powerful guard of the treasure house, I will definitely take that shameless, ugly, despicable, and stupid thief. Caught back… no, I will burn him directly with the fire of hell.”
“No one can steal the treasure in the cat’s treasury, this is my promise.”
The voice fell, and the Shar Pei also slid and disappeared.
This sudden change made the three goddesses sluggish for two seconds before they reacted.
What’s weird is that the anger on the faces of the three sisters who should have been extremely angry suddenly disappeared at the same time. It seems that they are not dissatisfied with the beautiful boy who was kindly taken in and turned into a thief, but they are very puzzled about the change that has just happened.
Selena, the younger sister of the three sisters, couldn’t help it at first, and said in surprise, “…What is Dad doing?”
When Phoebes and Helena heard the words, they shook their heads to show that they didn’t know.
…
In the depths of the treasury, in front of a pile of debris full of sparkling gems, Tang Qi, who completed the performance with Thorpe, looked at an ordinary old wooden box in front of him.
The wooden box is black and yellow, full of scars, and an abstract painting symbol is engraved on the surface of the box. It looks like two little black figures, standing face to face, they both extend their hands to each other, as if embracing, also like other poses.
Wonderful pieces of information flow instantly.
“Extraordinary Strange Objects: The door of the box is connected to a portal that ‘everything can be sold’. Entering the box, you can enter the organization’s trading place. You need an introducer to gain permission.”
When Tang Qi looked at it, Thorpe had already walked over, shaking his head, the dog’s paw stretched out, and with a “click”, the box opened automatically, and there was nothing inside, only a dark passage leading to nowhere. A descending ladder of pure light condensed looming.
“Come on, troublesome investigator.”
Thorpe, the god of death, climbed into the box first, and before going down, he glared at Tang Qi’s hand that was still holding something strange, and added: “Put down the [Tucson Gem], that’s my Celine. One of Na’s favorite gems.”
Tang Qi looked into the palm of his hand, and what he grabbed was a fist-sized natural gemstone with majestic magic power shining on it.
It’s a good wonder, but it’s far from being coveted by Tang Qi.
Putting the gem on a wooden shelf, Tang Qi followed Thorpe into the door of the box.
Going down the light ladder, it lasted for a long time. Every time he went down the ladder, Tang Qi could see the dim light rippling, and some images that seemed to be projected from various dimensions of the universe flickered and disappeared.
This wonderful picture continued until the landing, Tang Qi and Shar Pei stood together in a special place.
Underfoot is not mud, but nothingness, surrounded by darkness filled with mist.
But in the distance ahead, a huge “building” appeared.
It looks like a crystalline cube, shimmering with a wonderful brilliance, attracting all sights in the gloom like a special beacon.
“Everything is for sale!”
Thorpe suddenly sighed and spit out a sentence.
Immediately, He walked towards the cube first.
When he took the first step, bright light rose up under his feet, forming a “path of light” as if lit up, directly dragging Tang Qi and Thorpe towards the cube.
At the same moment, Tang Qi saw the darkness.
Countless paths of light appeared, each dragging a different figure into the cube.
Tang Qi, who touched new knowledge, was looking at the fragments of information flowing in his mind in surprise.
“A building forged from one of the oldest and hardest substances in the boundless mystery, it cannot be destroyed, it cannot be transported, it cannot be seized, it belongs to all things and can be sold… Unexplainable!”
Once again, Tang Qi encountered strange objects that could not be analyzed.
Since his “knowing everything” has been transformed, this has been an extremely rare scene.
Fortunately, Thorpe, the sharpei dog in front, is completing his duties as a guide.
“Its name is ‘The Rubik’s Cube of All Things’, and it has existed for a very long time, dating back to the Origin Age, and even older…”
“Its owners are a group of mysterious and ancient beings who call themselves ‘mysterious merchants’. Although the outside world thinks they belong to the ‘permanent neutral camp’, they don’t think so themselves. Their self-positioning is more detached and not subject to any restrictions.”
“But so far, they’ve only done one activity, which is buying and selling.”
“Here, you can sell anything you own and buy anything you can afford.”
“We receive guests from any universe and any dimension here. As long as you can come in, you will always be able to do so.”
“Even in the collection room of a certain ruler, the richness of treasures is far from that of this place.”
In Thorpe’s voice, the light dragging them quickly touched the cube.
The dim light immediately surged, and Tang Qi felt a terrifying repulsive force on the crystal surface that had no ripples or symbols, and was smooth to the extreme.
“If you don’t pass the verification, you will be exiled to the deepest depths of the boundless mystery.”
A hunch was born, but fortunately Thorpe’s referral qualification has not expired.
With the sense of time and space transfer, Tang Qi and Thorpe appeared in a blank room together.
The room seemed to have a galaxy come in, a lot of starlight flickered, the Milky Way was flowing, and shooting stars were streaking from time to time.
In this splendid and unbelievable scene, Tang Qi looked towards the center of the room, where there was a white table with a chair in front and back.
There was a figure sitting on the chair behind the table.
He was completely shrouded under the purple robe, and his face and limbs were not exposed.
He nodded to Thorpe first, and immediately seemed to know who was the real guest this time. He looked directly at Tang Qi, and the voices that could not distinguish gender, age or even race sounded in this room.
“Everything can be sold, guests from afar, I already know what you want, now let’s talk about the price?”
“If you are willing to register as our member, this transaction will have a certain discount.”
Unexpectedly, it was like some kind of salesman’s line, spit out from the purple-robed mysterious businessman’s mouth.
