CHAPTER 44: CHAPTER 44: MEETING AGAIN

"Is it you again?"

Zhou Yingting had just appeared here and immediately saw Zhang Yi from the 14th Bureau.

At this moment, Zhang Yi looked at Zhou Yingting in front of him, eyes filled with a few traces of confusion, probably not expecting to meet Zhou Yingting again so soon.

It’s only been about two days, and he’s entering another instance?

"What a coincidence."

Zhou Yingting looked at Zhang Yi in front of him and nodded, then seemed to think of something and stepped forward.

"By the way, I want to ask, if people like us carry knives or guns with us, will there be trouble?"

The entries on him now require him to carry a sword with him; only this way can he use Startled Swan.

Zhou Yingting is worried that when he carries a sword to an instance, he might be invited for a chat by someone.

Zhang Yi listened to Zhou Yingting’s words, paused for a moment, and then immediately said, "Didn’t you already enter the forum? Inside the forum, there is a section about your personal information."

"Once you fill it out, a page about your personal information will pop up. If someone checks you in the future, show them this page, and they will understand and not trouble you."

Regarding this, the 14th Bureau has long been handling it properly.

Once logged in, the relevant information is automatically synced in the database, effectively giving authorization to the other party.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yingting felt relieved.

The 14th Bureau does things thoroughly.

"Can I get some guns or hot weapons from you guys?"

Zhou Yingting pondered for a moment and asked again.

Zhang Yi was taken aback by this, not expecting such a question from Zhou Yingting.

"It’s possible, but are you sure you need it?"

Zhang Yi hesitated, looking at Zhou Yingting, "Others have thought like this before, but later found those things too cumbersome; many things in different worlds are much more useful than hot weapons."

More useful than hot weapons?

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yingting was slightly moved, probably understanding what the other party meant.

At once, Zhou Yingting didn’t linger anymore and turned around to leave.

The 14th Bureau member nearby watched Zhou Yingting leave with a contemplative look, "Captain Zhang, he just came out of an instance, and now he’s entering another; could it be because he chose a tag with a very deadly side effect?"

Thinking about it, it seems this is the only possibility for Zhou Yingting to enter instances so frequently.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yi thought for a while, then nodded, "It should be; if the entry’s side effects are too deadly, one can only keep entering instances to find suitable entries or treasures to delay the side effects."

Guessing, Zhou Yingting probably found the latest instance on the forum and entered it.

If that’s the case, the other party seems to lack the qualification to be recruited.

Taking an entry with particularly severe side effects from the start, it’s basically hard to live long.

He has seen such situations quite a lot.

In their 14th Bureau’s stored data, many people with entries haven’t appeared for a long time; these people are basically dead.

And Zhou Yingting hastily entered an instance again; he thinks Zhou Yingting probably won’t live long.

One reason is that the entry is taking his life, and another is the instance is also doing the same.

After all, failing an instance has consequences; no one can ensure they always get first place upon every entry.

Not to mention, some instances are inherently dangerous, and a mistake could lead to death.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yi waved his hand and spoke no more.

"Alright, let’s greet the newcomers."

With that, Zhang Yi, with a slight smile, walked toward the newcomers.

....

"Is there still no news about the Lucky 4 entry?"

Upon returning home, Zhou Yingting placed an order to buy a sword and browsed the forum, finding no replies.

Seeing this, Zhou Yingting frowned.

No idea how many entries there are altogether; it’s indeed difficult to get a fixed entry now.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yingting sighed, preparing to see if there were any other related news.

However, at this moment, Zhou Yingting noticed a flicker in his backstage messages.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Yingting, with curiosity, clicked open the information box.

In the information section, a line of message popped up.

The message was simple, inviting Zhou Yingting to attend an offline trade fair.

Probably because the other party saw Zhou Yingting’s published transaction request, hence the invitation.

"Transactions published on the forum, even if completed, require face-to-face trading; items from instance entries are mostly precious and not suitable for logistics."

"Private trading carries greater risk; logistics aren’t secure either. Having a trade fair can increase safety."

Upon seeing these words, Zhou Yingting frowned tightly.

According to the other party, if it’s a large trade fair, it’s indeed safer with more people.

It’s more reliable than one-on-one private trades.

Besides, items involved in these trades can’t be shipped by logistics express; neither party would feel assured.

Could it be that this trade has scale, hence the limited transaction info on the forum?

If that’s the case, it seems I have to take a look.

Additionally, according to the message sent by the other party, important information can be used for trading at the trade fair.

"Should I go and take a look?"

If I can find the Lucky 4 entry, refreshing entries would be useful then.

Thinking about it, Zhou Yingting looked at the address and time info sent by the other party.

Figuring it out, once the sword he ordered arrives, he can attend this trade fair.

Zhou Yingting ordered a Han Sword, with the Startled Swan magic entry, he should have some self-defense capability.

Thinking about it, Zhou Yingting searched the forum again for information about this trade fair.

Information about this trade fair on the forum wasn’t plentiful, so Zhou Yingting didn’t gather much information.

Thinking for a moment, Zhou Yingting took out the business card Zhang Yi gave him and inquired with him.

The 14th Bureau seems to have been established for a long time and should know about the trade fair.

Soon, Zhang Yi replied, saying the 14th Bureau knows about the trade fair and nothing has gone wrong with trades.

Upon seeing Zhang Yi’s reply, Zhou Yingting felt slightly relieved.

It seems this trade fair is relatively reliable.

If so, then it’s worth a visit.
