Chapter 518 - Shocking Tsunami (1/2)

Yang Ling ran around in circles in the Tibetan Mountain several times to confirm that he didn't make any mistake before he left a group of Magical Beasts and soldiers to guard the Devil Valley. Soon after, he moved the Magical Beast Army into the Wizard Pagoda's dimension and went back to the Magical Beast Territory through the Teleportation Formation Spell.

At first, Yang Ling planned to instruct the servants to serve him dinner, but when he saw the castle outside ablaze with light, he changed into a black robe and wore a cloak before he left stealthily through the back door.

When Yang Ling was poor, he envied the impressive-looking people that were escorted by guards and servants. Still, after he became a lofty Lord and his faction and influence's domain rose greatly, even the Duchies' Kings had to prostrate respectfully in front of him, and he already didn't care about those matters. Yang Ling still often reminisced about his past in this strange world and the events he went through to build up everything from nothing. He had built everything from scratch!

One couldn't always do as he liked!

Yang Ling possessed an army of a million troops, and he became a lofty and great powerhouse. It was only at this moment that he understood this saying's meaning, and at this moment, Yang Ling just wanted to go out by himself and relax. He wanted to go out clubbing and to relax as he had always done after he finished work.

Drinking, boasting, picking up girls, and playing football.

Those things would often seem quite ordinary, and it was only after one lost them would he treasure them.

After several large-scale expansions, the small Wissen Town had already become one of the greatest cities in the continent's southern coast, and innumerable merchants, nobles, adventurers refugees rushed over from all of the continent's lands. This was a city of immigrants, and even in the early evening, one could still see a fox-man shouting and yelling to announce that he was selling clothes at a discount. One could also see Dwarves setting up stalls and selling kitchen knives, as well as an ox-head man offering his services. One could also see human nobles running around all over the place with their servants.

This was a city of immigrants, yet it was also a city of tolerance, and the people who came from different lands wore a smile across their faces. The immigrant settled here, and the merchants developed their business here, while the adventures got many Adventure Missions here.

When Yang Ling passed by a clean and neat tavern, he smelled the wine fragrance fluttering from it. He lowered the cloak atop his head and went inside with quick strides. He planned to relax by himself, and this was he didn't want someone to recognize him. After all, Yang Ling was a Lord, and he only knew a few common people, but a large number of common people knew him.

”Sir, do you want two glasses of Iced Rum or two glasses of Pomegranate Wine?” A waiter welcomed him cordially with a smile across his face.

”Two glasses of Iced Rum, a plate of Alps Salted Peanuts and air-dried beef,” Yang Ling spoke before he went to sit on a corner near the windows.

This tavern wasn't big, but it was still comprehensive even though it was small. There was a small platform in the middle, but there wasn't any minstrel or barb there. There was a saxophone singer that was playing light music, and a female singer with heavy makeup was singing and swaying her supple h.i.p.s. She would often raise her short hide skirt and reveal her fair thighs. At that moment, the numerous mercenaries, hunters, and adventurers would cheer for the female singer loudly.

”Sir, do you want me to accompany you and drink several glasses with you?” A sweet fragrance assaulted Yang Ling's face, and a flirtatious young woman approached Yang Ling. The woman's fair face wore a professional smile!

”No, thanks! I will just drink several glasses and leave.” When the Yang Ling saw the young woman's miniskirt and her shirt that revealed a large part of her chest, he managed to discern her profession without asking her.

”Sir, I can mix drinks, and I can also massage you. Why don't you give me a try?” the sharp-eyed Lily noticed Yang Ling's clothes refined embroidery and understood that he was either a noble or a great merchant. Those were great customers rarely seen in an ordinary tavern, and this was why she surely wouldn't miss this chance to earn a large sum.

”Huh? Mixing drinks?” Yang Ling was quite surprised. He had seen many pretty women, but women able to mix drinks were still rarely seen, and this was why he invited her to sit down before he instructed the waiter to serve them several bottles of Iced Rum and Pomegranate Wine.

After the woman called Lily got Yang Ling's appreciation, she started taking action quickly with agile movements. She managed to make a simple c.o.c.ktail quickly, and she took a sip of it before she served it to Yang Ling respectfully with her eyes filled with expectations. It seemed like she was really skilled!

”Hum? Not bad.” After Yang Ling tasted it, he nodded. The taste wasn't on par with the drinks of a professional bartender like John, but it was still pretty good for an ordinary person. After Yang Ling took two sips, he asked in confusion, ”Miss Lily, I'm confused about something. Since you can mix drinks, you can obviously work as a bartender in any tavern. So, why are you still...”

”Sir, I have tried it, but they have all said that a woman can't work as a bartender, and they have said that there wasn't any precedent to this.” The young woman's pretty eyes turned sad, and she recounted her story as Yang Ling questioned further.

It turned out that she was born in a small noble family in the south, and her father was once a famous bartender. Even though they didn't live a well-off life, they still didn't end up in the street, but good things didn't last forever, and the tsunami that occurred a year ago swallowed up her whole family and the assets they owned. Just two children that she must feed were left. At that time, she had heard that Crystal Coins could be earned everywhere in the Magical Beast Territory, and this was why she traveled a thousand miles with two children and arrived at Wissen Town.

She didn't expect that reality would be so cruel, and none was willing to hire a mother with two children. She was left without a choice, and she was forced to take this road to support her family.

”Sirs, please calm down. The Warrior Mike will now auction the surplus Three-Star Pet Card in his hands, and the starting bid is 500 Purple Crystal Coins. If you want to buy it, hurry up.” When Yang Ling was just sighing for Lily's misfortune, a husky man walked up the stage and shouted loudly.

After one dipped his blood on a Battle Card or Magic Hunt Card to affirm his ownership, it would be bound to the owner's Soul Ripples, and it would also be registered in the Hunter Guild's records. This was why even if the owner was killed and someone picked the card, it would be useless to him, and it was only the Hunter Guild that could recycle the cards. However, low-level Pet Cards were different, and after they were altered by Master Aaron and the Gnome Elder, the owner must still affirm his ownership with blood as before, but after the owner died, the card could be used again.
