Chapter 513 Alstreim Family Territory Gate
In the Merchant Town that was a few kilometers away from the Alstreim Family Territory Gate, Davis and his entire group mixed in with the bustling hubbub of people as they walked the streets.
Davis and the others were panning their heads, watching the shop stands which were selling numerous kinds of items in numerous quantities.
Pills, techniques, ingredients, meat and different types of furniture.
Many merchants would buy these items in bulk and would travel to the Empires and Kingdoms to make a profit and might even try short-selling halfway to another merchant, creating an enterprise of networks.
Suddenly, Davis's had a peculiar expression on his face.
Davis wasn't surprised by the matter of merchants, however, his soul sense which slightly extended discovered a few people who wore disguises, entirely changing their faces.
Many people like them also wore masks but they were in the minority. Unlike masks, many people wore disguises to cheat people.
In the merchant town, if one weren't careful they might be scammed into buying a 'treasure' for a high price which would leave them in tears.
Of course, there were also scammers who had failed to appraise the items they were selling, hence making a loss but that was incredibly rare.
He panned his face over too the end of the street and could tell that most of the shop stands either had scammers or people who were afraid to be found out by the authorities, hence making them disguise themselves!
Their disguise was quite profound too... however, to his Soul Sense, they were all just as good as applying powder to their faces.
Nevertheless, if they had the relevant technique, Davis thought of purchasing them as well.
Then he could try to improve upon them and create one for himself one's it's tested against high-level cultivators.
In the shop stands, none of the items caught his eye but he could feel that the people behind him were somewhat interested in it. This intent came mostly from Jackson's group since they were the ones who had little or no contact with the wide world.
As they saw the items which were at Sky Grade being sold in shop stands like they were roadside vegetables, the shock they experienced was not less, to say the least.
Although the items that were many were at Sky Grade, it was only till Mid-Level. As for High-Level and Peak-Level, they were scarce and the latter was even more scarce.
As for King Grade Items or Treasures, they didn't find any, quickly thinking that they should be scarcely available and showcased in the buildings of both sides of streets.
There were many merchant stores, each trying to bring in customers with a spokeswoman in the front, attracting customers to their shops.
At the same time, Davis saw a member of the Tripartite Alliance grasp the wrist of a spokeswoman as they entered an Inn. From the looks of it, the spokeswoman looked quite willing and even fawned on the member of the Tripartite Alliance with a seductive expression on her face.
Davis shook his head in exasperation. He then sent a Soul Transmission to Jackson, telling him to buy a map of the Alstreim Family Territory.
In the shop stand beside them, there was a rough man shouting atop of his lungs.
"Heading to the Alstreim Family Territory? You will definitely need this map! Although it is not detailed, it is still the latest one you can find here!"
Jackson who was masked came forward and bought the map as he returned to the group.
However, he was inwardly shocked that it cost him 500 Low-Level Spirit Stones to buy this non-detailed map.
To him, 500 Low-Level Spirit Stones wasn't a small sum and he didn't even have that much to throw away like he wouldn't care. This amount of wealth was enough to buy himself a good quality Low-Level Sky Grade Item!
His heart bled but he didn't dare to complain.
Davis extended his hand and Jackson Lars passed it to him without a word of complaint and bowed like a disciple paying respects to his master.
Davis's eyes twitched but he cast a glance towards the map.
Soon, their entourage walked past the merchant town and arrived at the location of where the tokens were being sold.
These tokens were none other than single-use tokens which the people should hand over after they arrive at the other side of Territory Gate.
Failing to do so will result in people who own the territory gate to subdue the person who failed to comply with their rules unless of course, the said person was to have a special status.
Otherwise, the people who fail to comply with the rules were just asking for trouble.
Davis looked at the large compartment which sold tokens and the long queue. His sight went above and he saw the Territory Gate which spanned over a hundred meters wide and a thousand meters long.
In fact, they could see it even before they reached the Merchant Town, however, looking at the Territory Gate from this distance left him with a sense of awe and grand majesticness.
He panned his gaze to sides of the territory gate and saw that the space extending to the horizon was covered in perpetual black fog which was rich in density, making it look like a dark smog.
Davis stood there momentarily breath taken by the perpetual dark smog and so did the others who came here for the first time.
Evelynn subconsciously held Davis's sleeves, feeling a little afraid of the future but once he held her small palm and interlocked his fingers with her, all fears she had were blown away by the warmth.
Princess Isabella's eyes had a glint of excitement and also fear towards the unknown.
Perhaps she would fall at this place? Or perhaps even face a worse end?
She thought of it like this and suddenly had the urge to go on a rampage as the Immortal Earth Dragon's Blood resonated or influenced her thoughts.
Mulia and Hadian held hands, glimpsing their future to be one of a happy family. They were unsure, however, they looked at Uncle Erik as he smiled back at them.
As for the others, they were all more or less displaying a peculiar expression upon witnessing the grand Territory Gate.
Claire looked at it nostalgically as she remembered that she had entered through here to participate in the Forbidden Phoenix Realm, and left straight to it without taking a stop, ferried by a flying boat.
She shook her nostalgic thoughts and cast a look at Logan, once again remembering their fateful encounter in the past.
Logan also noticed her gazed and smiled foolishly at her as he sent her a Soul Transmission, "Did you perhaps pass by this Territory Gate when you entered the secret entrance?"
Claire nodded her head, "At that time, there were so many people who were sent from two other powers as well, not just the Alstreim Family. I and the others from the Alstreim Family came from this Territory Gate while the cultivators from the other two powers came from the Towering Cloud Hall Territory Gate which is in the north and the Falling Snow Sect Territory which is in the east."
Logan looked at Claire intently before asking with a shameless expression on his face, "Why don't you become my wife?"
Claire became taken aback before she laughed in nostalgia, even as her eyes were slightly moistening up.
Logan held her by the waist and pulled her closer to him as he made her rest on his shoulder.
