Chapter 307 The City of Earth and Fire (a New Update!)
Chapter 307 The City of Earth and Fire (a new update!)
The familiar dizziness...
When Yi Qiu regained consciousness, he found himself standing in front of a city as dark as obsidian.
The surrounding vision is very dim, but there are bright large torches burning on the city wall to dispel the surrounding shadows.
The stone slab on the ground under Yi Qiu's feet was exuding a faint icy breath. When he raised his head, he could see the rocks above his head faintly covered with continuous fluorescent plants.
But because it is too far from the ground, the shimmering light emitted by the fluorescent plants cannot bring much beneficial improvement to the entire dim environment.
But for the underground creatures, this twilight is enough for them to move.
This is the real underground world, the deepest dark place under the light...
"call……"
Yi Qiu breathed out, the scorching breath in his body reacted with the low-temperature air, and a brilliant white rainbow appeared in front of Yi Qiu.
Touching his bald head, Yi Qiu found some information refreshed on his retina:
"It is detected that a character has entered the city of fire, and the temporary currency exchange store in the city of fire is open. You can perform a one-way currency exchange in this store by consuming comprehensive network disaster coins."
"At present, the maximum time you can stay in the city of fire and earth is: 24 hours."
"You got the city information: City of Earth and Fire."
As the information on the retina keeps refreshing, Yi Qiu can feel some knowledge being transmitted into his sea of consciousness...
This is a city built on top of an active volcanic corpse with a biological level of 18. The rich minerals and active flame particles in the active volcanic corpse attracted the gray dwarves to build their city here - Kamodo - flameout Fort, where they built countless furnaces and forges.
But the good times didn't last long, the rich resources led to war and plunder, and finally the prosperous Kamodo was destroyed by the war.
It wasn't until a hundred years ago that the mind flayer elder, Stavalas, took this area from the drow.
The mind flayers built a new city on top of Kamodor's wreckage, and renamed it: "The City of Earth and Fire".
"I smell him, it's the passport of the Nuchimo family."
The barghest guarding the gate twitched his nose slightly, and then said to the gray dwarf guards behind him.
"Squeak..."
Under the sluggish pull of the gray dwarf guards, the passageway on the side of the gate of Earthfire City was slowly opened.
"You have your own way of understanding, but I need you to understand one thing, adventurer—I will be very happy if you don't leave before the validity period of the pass expires."
The dog demon bared his teeth and said to Yi Qiu.
Although it couldn't observe Yi Qiu's camp, the power of order in Yi Qiu still made it feel uneasy and hostile instinctively as a chaotic creature.
Yi Qiu ignored it, but went straight into the city of fire from the passage.
There is only one hour until the end of the bidding for the Capability Expansion Capsule, and he needs to find a place to bid as soon as possible.
"A ground elf maid with pure blood, only 10 Gnars, 10 Gnars!"
"Our maids are all professionally trained by the Mind Flayer Association and have anti-counterfeit qualification certificates. They are definitely not black-hearted businessmen who use drow as shoddy!"
As soon as they entered the city of earth and fire, the sound of hawking immediately filled the entire space.
A goblin-like guy was holding a long whip and standing on a temporary platform made of several boxes, shouting. There was a cage behind him, and there was a blindfolded elf in the cage.
Under Yi Qiu's watchful eyes, a human warrior who seemed to be an integrated network player couldn't hold back the commotion in his heart and ran to the side of the goblin.
After the two whispered, the goblin led the human warriors to the cage behind.
"The real deal, my friend! You'll never get any cheaper than this!"
The goblin said to the human warrior while opening the cage.
"Why... I think this elf's skin is a bit dark?"
When the human warrior looked at the elf who was pulled out of the cage, he said hesitantly.
"Ah, don't worry my friend! This is how the ground elves have not been exposed to sunlight for a long time. Think about drow, isn't it also transformed from a fair-skinned ground elf?"
The goblin explained with dancing.
"We have a professional certificate of anti-counterfeiting. Don't worry, my friend, I, Tigule-Moi, have not received any customer who has purchased our product to choose to return it."
"Let's go, my friend, let's go to the trading center to sign the agreement."
"I can already see that you can't wait. You must know that there is no daylight in the underground world, and you have a lot of time..."

The auction location for the Capability Expansion Capsule is easy to find. It is located in the most conspicuous building in the City of Earth and Fire: a large auction club like a Colosseum created by the head area of the active volcano.
The auction of rare items is held in the central area of this large auction club, and the rest of the area is the auction area for ordinary items with a large number and mixed quality.
Amidst the dog demon baring his teeth uneasily at the gate, Yi Qiu walked into this large auction club.
Following the guidance of Zall's waiter, Yi Qiu came to the auction site for the ability expansion capsule.
It is worth mentioning that, according to Yi Qiu's observations, apart from the dog demons, it seems that the guards and waiters in this city of fire and earth are all biological puppets controlled by mind flayers.
The gray dwarves were once puppets of the mind flayers, but in the end they got rid of the control and gained the power to master psionic energy.
It may be because the value of the ability expansion capsule is limited, and there are not many people bidding for rare items.
And according to Yi Qiu's observation, many people are waiting here for the auction of the next item.
And the crystal in the center shows the information of the bidding item:
"
Current auction item: Ability Stretch Capsule
Bidding price: 10 Jiaohong tooth coins
Auction time remaining: 53 minutes
"
When Yi Qiu sat on an empty seat under the guidance of the drow puppet waiter, he used his consciousness to concentrate on the psionic traction tool on the seat, and suddenly a bidding interface was projected onto his retina through his consciousness.
"
Bid: +10 Jiaohongya coins (a minimum price increase of 10 Jiaohongya coins)
"
Because most of the transactions in the city of fire are conducted between non-integrated network players, the integrated network does not provide the function of realizing the auction of the city of fire through the integrated network.
"20 bright rainbow tooth coins."
With the operation of Yi Qiu's consciousness, the information displayed on the front crystal jumped once.
"Hi buddy, tantric master?"
At this moment, a human next to him greeted Yi Qiu.
He was wearing a loose cloth robe, but he didn't see items such as magic books and staffs. He might be a warlock or bard.
"Not really."
Yi Qiu shook his head and said.
"Oh! Today is my lucky day, a rare occasion."
"Then let the lucky Bonder guess which legendary female sorceress you plan to use this capsule on..."
Bonder straightened the neckline of his robe and said confidently.
"Anna's dark tentacles? No, it doesn't look like you have that preference, maybe Bonnard's fiery whip?"
"In fact, the target of the skill I'm going to use is a middle-aged human male with a watermelon head."
Yi Qiu touched his bald head and said to Bondel seriously.
After listening, Bonder's expression instantly became a little stiff...
