Atlas of Heaven and Earth
Chapter 453: Contact
After the snake eye appeared on the interface, it quickly retreated backward, and then a triangular area appeared around the snake eye, with a selection category at each corner.
At the same time, rustling sounds came out, making one think of a slippery snake body crawling in a cave.
Chen Chuan looked at it; the very center was the sect introduction, and the left and right sides were purchase items and category queries.
The classification was quite clear. He first checked the sect introduction, which was a general introduction to the Secret Serpent Cult.
The Secret Serpent Cult was founded in old times. After entering the new era, it quickly accepted new things, abandoned old traditions, and actively integrated into the upper echelons.
That's why it wasn't branded as a cult like many conservative sects. Even if those sects could survive to this day, they could only hide in dark corners.
The Secret Serpent Cult is not a tightly knit sect group. The structure is very loose, and there are no particularly strict restrictions on believers outside the core. Now it is more like a company in the guise of a sect.
Ordinary people only need to register and pay a sum of money every year to become a member of the sect. The difference is that they can call themselves members of the Secret Serpent Cult outside and can buy cheaper services from the Secret Serpent Cult.
Because the Secret Serpent Cult only provides an internal trading platform for most peripheral members, without mandatory requirements or restrictions, other members will not stand up for it in case of trouble. Of course, if you are willing to pay, that's another matter.
Because the above is only a general introduction, Chen Chuan just browsed through it and skipped it, then looked at the purchase items.
There were many things inside, in addition to the self-developed Implants sold to the public, there were also private Martial Combat instruction and training, and even the basic enhancement services he was concerned about were available.
However, the price was also very expensive, even more expensive than the teaching courses provided within the Wuyi Academy, except that there were some special services of the Secret Serpent Cult.
The difference is that the Secret Serpent Cult not only accepts monetary payments, but also accepts other forms of payment, such as agreeing to join the Secret Serpent Cult's Implant experiment, or participating in some of the Secret Serpent's service projects, completing some of the Secret Serpent Cult's commissions.
He tried to check it, and found that to see the specific content, he needed to pay a deposit first and talk to the contact person in detail, which was not directly listed outside, so he skipped it for the time being.
As he continued to scroll down, he found that the Secret Serpent Cult had been acquiring some special items. If these things could be collected, the Secret Serpent could pay money or satisfy one of its services. After this, a series of items were listed.
Since nothing was marked and there was only one picture, Chen Chuan couldn't tell what it was, and could only see that some looked like special Mutated Tissue, but when he saw one of the things, his eyes couldn't help but pause.
Because he had seen this thing before.
It was a mass of rubble-like things, dark red in color with a faint light. If he remembered correctly, he and Ren Xiao got this thing the first time they went to Jiao Mountain.
Even the Secret Serpent Cult is acquiring this thing, so it seems to be of greater value than imagined. However, the amount required to satisfy a service is also quite large.
He thought for a while, and this could be listed as an alternative project.
After looking through the services one by one, he finally found a special category: the Secret Serpent Cult was recruiting Martial Artists to participate in a project, and the reward was to pay money or convert it into various services.
He looked at the details. The Secret Serpent Cult has its own biological breeding ground, and is now cultivating a special-purpose water snake, which requires Martial Artists to spend some time with it, and prompts that participating in this project is indeed very dangerous and requires signing a disclaimer in advance.
After reading the specific content, he thought for a while, and this could also be noted down as an alternative project.
After browsing all the things, he withdrew from here. Although he didn't get what he wanted, it wasn't without gain, and even if he didn't choose anything, it could be used as an alternative information platform.
Although he took Third Limit as his target, he didn't think he needed to be too hasty. The more anxious he was at this time, the worse he would do things. Some situations needed to wait until the start of school to know for sure.
As for Instructor Wu , he thought for a while and sent him a reply, which read: Instructor Wu , thank you for telling me this. I am very grateful. However, after careful consideration, I feel that I am not suitable for learning your Skills, so I can only decline your kindness, teacher .
After separating from Chen Chuan , Instructor Wu returned to his residence, and he was very satisfied with his previous performance.
He understood these students too well. A commoner student from another place, after suddenly coming to Central City, these things that he had never seen before would inevitably bring him a strong shock.
But what followed was the invisible boundary that was everywhere in Central City, and the dauntingly expensive services, which would inevitably make him feel confused and embarrassed.
Even if this student he saw today was calm and mature on the surface, he must be uneasy in his heart. In addition, what he said today was half-true, which would definitely increase his anxiety to the maximum, and he would take the initiative to contact him soon.
Just as he was changing his clothes, he was suddenly prompted by the Boundary Token that someone was contacting him. He couldn't help but smile and looked at the contact message. Immediately, his face suddenly changed, the muscles on his face suddenly became hideous, and his fingers trembled.
He couldn't understand how he had said everything to that point, but this student still chose to reject his kindness. Was he not afraid of being targeted by interested parties in the future? Or did he plan to take that path? Or did this student have some unexpected background?
He couldn't figure it out, but he had finally found such a suitable target, and he would never give up.
Since there was no way, he could only do that.
His complexion quickly became peaceful again, and he turned his eyes to the calendar. There were still ten days before the start of school. He still had time. He said slowly: "You will return to the right path."
In the next few days, Chen Chuan trained in the dormitory.
Wu Bei was sorting out the data obtained from the Golden Shrimp Team Commission. Since the Golden Shrimp Team never created separate files for unusual requests, but mixed them with other Commissions, it would take some time to reorganize them.
However, he didn't plan to take the next Commission so quickly. The Golden Shrimp Commission team had just disappeared, and someone immediately came up to seamlessly connect with unusual requests. Even without evidence, discerning people could see that the two were related, so he decided to take it slow for a while.
On the holiday day in the middle of the month, he called home again. He originally wanted to contact Cheng Zitong , but he didn't expect that before he could call, Cheng Zitong called him first.
"Chuan, how are you? Have you been living in Central City for a few days? Are you still used to it?"
Chen Chuan replied: "I'm used to everything, but the prices in Central City are a bit expensive. It seems that I need to buy every course in school, and the expenses in the future may be a lot."
Cheng Zitong : "That's right, so the teacher told you to save more money, otherwise it may not be enough. If there is a shortage, tell the teacher , and the teacher will find a way for you."
Chen Chuan : "Thank you, teacher ." He thought for a while, and then said: "It's just that the student heard some things. The situation in the Main Academy seems to be a bit complicated."
"The teacher also knows a little about the Main Academy." Cheng Zitong smiled and said: "Chuan, don't worry, and don't listen to those rumors outside. Stay calm, and wait until after the start of school for everything."
Chen Chuan "s heart moved slightly. He nodded, "Teacher , I understand."
"Well, the teacher is relieved about you. Remember to call the teacher if you have anything."
"Okay, teacher ."
After Chen Chuan hung up the phone, he went back to carry out today's Martial Combat Cultivation. The day passed like this. After eating dinner, he was preparing to go to the Marginal Channel to watch the news when a message suddenly came from the contact interface. It turned out to be that Instructor Wu again.
He thought for a while and connected the contact, asking: "Instructor Wu , what's the matter?"
Instructor Wu : "Chen student , I want to see you again."
Chen Chuan : "I'm sorry, Instructor Wu , the student has made it very clear to you. I don't plan to follow you to learn your Martial Combat Skills."
"No, it's not for this."
Instructor Wu "s tone was a little low, "I respect your choice, but I am preparing to leave the Academy when school starts, and some things are useless if I keep them, so I want to entrust them to you.
Some are Drugs that your students need, as well as my course summaries and some experience insights over the years. These things are my hard work. Although you don't plan to practice what I prepared for you, I think you are the most promising student I have ever seen, and these things may be useful to you."
Chen Chuan was silent for a while before saying: "Teacher , where can I meet you?"
"Same place tonight, I'll send you the address. The teacher hopes you can come."
"Okay, I'll come."
After Chen Chuan ended the contact, his mind turned. He had seen the Data. This Instructor Wu was a Third Limit Martial Artist . Even if he couldn't stay in the school, he would never be as miserable as he said himself.
And that location...
He walked to the map on the desk, looked at the address sent by Instructor Wu , and contacted Wu Bei at the same time, "Brother Wu, can you check this place for me?"
Wu Bei responded readily: "No problem."
After a while, Wu Bei sent him the terrain map of that place. It was an open space located on the edge of the Flourishing Victory District. The surrounding area was desolate, with almost no residences, only a two-story wooden structure house on a hill, and the location given by Instructor Wu was there.
Seeing this place at first glance, Chen Chuan had a hunch that Instructor Wu wanted to attack him. He didn't know where this idea came from, and he didn't know what reason the other party had to do this, but he just had this feeling.
However, he was prepared to keep the appointment.
Because if it was as he felt, if he didn't go this time, and Instructor Wu identified him, then he would definitely find other ways to target him. It would be extremely difficult to deal with a Third Limit person who secretly harbored ill intentions. Instead of avoiding it, it would be better to choose to face it head-on.
Chen Chuan looked at the Snow Emperor Blade placed on the shelf. It was not difficult to kill Jing Li and those people last time, and it was still a little short of twenty-four hours Merge.
This time, perhaps he could use this to achieve his target.
