Chapter 611 - Please Come With Us (2/2)

After all, this quest, at first glance, was not going to be completed anytime soon. They asked for some information about the city ahead, and the other man told them everything he knew.

After inquiring about some local knowledge, Roland asked, “I wonder if Mr. Sunred has ever heard of the figure of the vampires’ True Ancestor?”

“No.” After a moment’s thought, Sunred said, “I don’t recall hearing that name.” “Then sorry for troubling you.” Having learned everything he wanted to know, Roland took out a gold coin from his Backpack. “This is our apology for delaying you.” “No, no, no, please don’t do that.”

Sunred waved his hand. He didn’t dare take this gold coin-what if the other party suddenly had other intentions after he accepted the coin?

Roland shoved the gold coin into the other party’s hands without saying anything, beckoned his friends, and the five of them left.

Sunred watched Roland and the others disappear behind the city of Portree ahead of them before he sighed in relief.

The more he spent time with these five people, the more scared he felt.

Then he looked at the gold coin in his hand and cheered up.

There was a shortage of gold in the Netherworld, so the price of gold coins was quite high.

And the netizens who were watching the livestream were also quite impressed. “It’s over 10,000 yuan for a few random questions, such a great perk, why can’t I encounter this.”

“Brother, didn’t you see how scared Sunred was, fearing F6 would rob them and hold them hostage? His life probably shortened by a few years from being scared. I don’t want to earn money like that.”

“I’m not afraid of a short life, I’m afraid of having no money.”

“You can’t buy a life even if you’re rich.”

“Without money, what’s the use of life? Do you just starve every day?”.

“Shush, Roland has entered Portree, can you all watch quietly?”

The pop-up comments immediately lessened.

Roland and the others entered the city before them, Portree.

Just as they had seen in the illusion, the city was a mix of various races, and it was quite harmonious.

When Schuck entered, he came up next to Roland and said, “Feel that, a lot of people are watching us secretly.”

“It’s only natural. After all, we’re outsiders, and with the way we dress and our aura, we don’t look like people from here at first glance.”

Roland’s observation was quite subtle and correct.

Since the five of them were dressed in the style of Hollevin, the people here, looking at their clothing, found it refreshing.

They couldn’t help but take a few more glances. Roland and the others found that the layout of the city was the same as what they had seen in the illusion.

Eventually, they even found the small inn where they had stayed in the illusion.

After paying for the rooms, the five men gathered at Schuck’s room.

“Are we still in the illusion or not?” Schuck felt a headache coming on. “Why is that Soul Gatherer’s illusion exactly the same as what we’re seeing now?”

Li Lin wanted to poke his hand again.

But at this moment Roland spoke. “It shouldn’t be an illusion, because what I see in my primary vision now is the same as the one transmitted by the magic spider.” “That’s great.” Schuck sighed in relief. “It seems that the black Soul Gatherer helped a great deal. At least, it helped us to recognize the environment and landmarks here.”

“Let’s go gather information again.” Roland smiled. “I hope we can find something useful this time.”

The five of them dispersed and left the inn.

Roland once again went to the tavern he saw in the illusion and asked for information.

The tavern was there, even the owner was the same as the last time he saw him.

Roland asked for some rumors about the vampire’s True Ancestor, or their gathering place, and as long as someone confessed or found it out for him, he would immediately go there to investigate.

As a result, he waited until it was near evening without finding any important clues or information from the drinkers.

This was rather different from the time that he was under the illusion.

Returning from the tavern to the inn, Roland found that his friends had returned before he did.

The five men were in Schuck’s room, laying out the day’s haul.

The floor was full of snacks.

Roland felt a bit of a headache. “I said that intel is the main thing, why are you guys buying so many miscellaneous things?”

Anything from the main plane was quite valuable in the Netherworld.

And worth a lot of money.

Just as Schuck was going to answer, there was a knock on their door.

Roland gestured for the four of them to be quiet and opened the door.

Outside the door stood two soldier-like men, one a green-skinned orc, the other an elf. They stared at Roland. “May I ask if you’ve drifted over from the outside world?”

“Sort of.”

“Then please come with us.”
