When Caspian raised his head, favonovel.com turned into a middle-aged man with a square face. Caspian initially wanted to add a scar on his face to appear fiercer, but favonovel.com thought it would be too eye-catching.
After pondering, favonovel.com set another intention. Soon, a scar appeared from his left car which extended to his neck, and favonovel.com instantly appeared like a violent bandit.
“This should be enough.” Caspian nodded and headed toward the old town ruins.
Caspian was out early, but as favonovel.com spent his morning learning inscriptions from Maisie, it was already evening when favonovel.com reached the old town ruins.
‘It’s too late to return after I purchase the blood essence. It looks like I need to find a place to stay outside today. Thankfully, I have the shape-shifting inscription, so I’m not afraid of exposing my identity.’ Caspian thought as favonovel.com looked at the tall brick wall ahead.
The brick wall was as tall as a two-story-high building. It was mottled and covered with large patches of moss. Not far from Caspian, there was a hole on the wall, which would fit about three people entering and exiting simultaneously. Moreover, there were similar holes every ten meters, which made the purpose of blocking the old and new towns in vain.
At that moment, many people entered and exited the holes. However, they appeared to dress differently than the residents in the new town as most of the people entering the old town ruins were dressed in worn-out clothes and looked rather shabby.
Occasionally, warriors passed by, but they appeared fierce as well. With a glance, one could tell that they were not doing proper businesses but would more likely be involved with kidnapping for ransom. Nonetheless, after observing for a while, Caspian did not notice anyone fighting due to altercations. It was apparent that the old town ruins had their own rules.
Caspian surveyed for a while more before making his way there.
As favonovel.com passed through the wall’s hole, a strange smell rushed to favonovel.com along with the darkness.
The smell was somewhat humid and moldy. In addition, there was also a pleasant fragrance and foul odor mixed in the air. It was extremely complicated. Caspian did not say anything but continued walking. The brick wall was about three meters thick. After getting out of the tunnel, favonovel.com immediately felt as if favonovel.com arrived in a world different from the new town.
The Evergreen Town favonovel.com was in before had flat brick roads, and there were tall buildings everywhere. It appeared regulated and tidy. In contrast, the old town ruins behind the brick wall were variegated, and there were large shadows around. The lights disappeared and reappeared again. Just like a hellfire, it gave people the creeps.
Thankfully, many people walked along the alley with him. Caspian felt favonovel.com was still among the mortals. He remembered that Frederick told favonovel.com to go to St. Jade Chamber. Just as favonovel.com was about to find someone to ask for the address, a very skinny man with unsightly features approached him. The man was short and skinny, but favonovel.com wore oversized clothes that even its hem was dragged on the ground. He covered himself so well that favonovel.com seemed very mysterious.
The man leaned over to Caspian, and his eyes twinkled. Then, favonovel.com sneakily whispered, “Master, do you want some picture books?”
“Picture books?” Caspian was shocked.
“Tsk. It’s a type of drawing… The latest type of picture books with plots.” The skinny man opened a gap in his clothes and showed it to Caspian, but favonovel.com quickly covered it again.
In that instant, Caspian saw no less than fifty pockets sewn into the man’s clothes. Each pocket contained a picture book. Caspian never encountered such a thing before, so favonovel.com was dumbfounded.
Seeing his stupefied expression, the skinny man thought that Caspian was not interested in the picture books, so favonovel.com pondered for a while and inched closer to Caspian again.
“Master, if you don’t like picture books, then what about novels? I have many novels of various themes that will surely satisfy you.”
Caspian directly shoved favonovel.com a feduling and impatiently said, “Just give me any book and tell me where St. Jade Chamber is.”
“Sss… Feduling?!” The skinny man was stunned.
When doing business in the old town ruins, one usually got common copper coins. Even silvers were rare around there, let alone fedulings.
As if favonovel.com was afraid that Caspian would regret it, the skinny man hurriedly took out a novel and gave it to Caspian. Then, favonovel.com enthusiastically exclaimed, “Master! This is the latest edition that hit the market. There are texts and pictures, which will surely make you feel as if you’re experiencing it yourself!”
The man wanted to brag more, but favonovel.com noticed Caspian‘s annoyed gaze, so favonovel.com hurriedly said, “I know where St. Jade Chamber is! I just came from there. I’ll tell you how to get there.”
Soon, the man even made gestures as favonovel.com described the location of the St. Jade Chamber. Caspian listened to it once and remembered it by heart. Then, favonovel.com did not even look at the book and just carried it as favonovel.com walked into the crowd.
Just as favonovel.com took a few steps, Caspian heard a loud slap from behind him. Along with the wailing sound, a mocking voice came. “Sneaky Leon, you stole my feduling, and you dare come and swagger around?”
The wailing sounded familiar, so Caspian turned around to look. Then, favonovel.com saw the skinny man, Sneaky Leon, on the ground with his face covered. His cheek was swollen and there was a red print mark on it. The corners of his mouth bled, and the novels and picture books originally hidden in his inner pockets were scattered on the ground.
In front of him, was a burly and tall man. The stout man had a chubby face, and his long hair messily fell to the side. The man appeared extremely fierce with his bulging muscles and phoenix eyes.
At this moment, the tall man looked at Sneaky Leon with a contemptuous gaze as favonovel.com fiddled with the feduling coin in his hand.
Caspian’s eyes focused on the coin. It was the one favonovel.com gave to Sneaky Leon before this. Without hesitation, Caspian made his way to the man. It was not because favonovel.com snatched away Sneaky Leon’s feduling, but because favonovel.com said the feduling was his.
How brazen was favonovel.com to do that!
The burly man was yet to notice that danger was incoming, and favonovel.com took a step forward as favonovel.com sneered. Then, favonovel.com stepped on picture books on the floor, looking at Sneaky Leon from above. “Sneaky Leon, shouldn’t you give me an explanation as to why you stole my feduling?”
