Chapter 50 The Secret Realm of Commercialization
Chapter 50 The Secret Realm of Commercialization
Guanghu District is located in the southern area of Jincheng. In ancient times, it was the Guocheng of Jincheng. Later, with the development of the times, Guanghu District became the sixth-ranked urban district in Jincheng’s comprehensive economic strength.
“The main economic pillar of Guanghu District is Zecheng Secret Realm and its surrounding industries.” Tong Xuhua introduced to the three students.
Chen Xing, who was sitting against the car window, looked at the brightly lit downtown and said, "I can see it."
“Is that the secret realm of Zecheng?” Chen Xing looked at the slightly rotating dark brown vortex in the center of the square in the distance.
In the middle of the vortex, it is like opening a window in the world we live in. Through this window, we can clearly see the scenery on the opposite side. It seems that a building has been built opposite the secret realm.
Kuang Shiyi, who was sitting at the front, pointed to a large hotel with more than 20 floors in front and said: "That's where we will stay today. Now let's go to the arranged hotel to put down our luggage."
Soon the school bus stopped at the hotel porch. Kuang Shiyi picked up his big backpack and got off the bus first, followed by seven people following him.
After checking in at the front desk of the lobby on the first floor of the hotel, everyone will get the room card for their own room.
Kuang Shiyi said: "We will be free to disperse later. You can go shopping nearby and have something to eat. Return to your room before ten o'clock in the evening. Get up at eight o'clock tomorrow morning and set off at nine o'clock."
“Got it!” Tong Xuhua nodded with a smile.
Kuang Shiyi hummed, and finally warned: "By the way, you are not allowed to go to messy places at night, and you are not allowed to stay out at night."
Take the hotel elevator back to your room on the seventh floor.
The rooms arranged by the school are single rooms, which is well received.
Pushing the door open, the room you see is warmly decorated, with hidden lights installed around it, and the warm orange light shines on the fluffy white sheets. The wooden floor is not cold, the temperature and humidity in the room are moderate, and the most important thing is that the room is very large.
The room is a suite structure. There is also a connecting room that is shorter than the bedroom and requires two steps of stairs. The other room is paved with a separate granite floor, with water holes on the surrounding walls, and a layer of pebbles on three sides of the wall.
There was a manual placed on the small drawer next to it. Chen Xing opened the manual and looked at it. He learned that this room also has a water storage function. It can store up to 20cm of water in this room.
This is a room specially prepared for beast control, especially suitable for water attribute beast control.
It is also introduced in the manual that their hotel building has many such "suites", with different layouts built according to different races and beast masters with different attributes.
Going back to the bedroom, there is a huge floor-to-ceiling glass window on the front. From the perspective of the seventh floor, you can see the Secret Plaza across the street.
There are more than a dozen brightly lit commercial streets near the square, crowded with pedestrians and extremely lively.
Going downstairs, Chen Xing came to the nearby snack street. Many food stalls on the street used the monsters in the secret realm as their signboards. They grilled crown-of-thorns fish meat and grilled white velvet spotted spider legs.
Chen Xing tasted a large spider leg. This spider leg was nearly fifty centimeters long and three to four centimeters thick. The side was cut with a knife. The tender white meat inside looked like a shrimp with its hard shell peeled off, sprinkled with cumin powder. , chili powder, MSG, salt, fragrant.
After eating one stick, Chen Xing couldn't bear to eat it. Although it was delicious, it was a bit expensive. It cost 199 yuan a stick. Just try it. It's just that it's hard to store the barbecue when it's cold. You can bring some to your parents and sister to try when you return from the secret realm.
Go to another shop and eat another bowl of fried noodles. After eating, Chen Xing wandered around the street.
He found that the most popular places around this secret place were restaurants, followed by “travel agencies”.
Travel agencies have advertisements for three-day tours to secret places and one-day tours to secret places posted everywhere. They are very fancy and advertise that customers are safe and have a real and exciting experience. There are also some souvenir shops and animal control shops.
The souvenirs are basically all kinds of miniature beast-controlling dolls from the Zecheng Secret Realm, including rag dolls, porcelain dolls, puzzles, keychains, and backpacks of the same style. Among them are also the most classic Jincheng Golden Iron Beast series dolls, which Chen Xing gave to his sister I bought a mobile phone case similar to the clay doll. It’s not big or heavy, so I can just stuff it in my bag.
In the beast-taming sales shop, different beast-taming cubs are packed in glass boxes one after another. Some of the beast-taming cubs’ glass boxes have photos and information of their parents posted on the surface.
There are three kinds of beasts that are placed in the explicit position.
On the left is a blue crab as big as a bowl.
Sensing Chen Xing's approach, the blue crab raised two pliers. The left plier was like a sickle with serrations on it, and the right sickle was larger, like a V-shaped shield, with separate blue-purple pliers at the end.
"Guest, this dancing sickle ghost-backed crab is the cub of the king crab in our store. It has a brave personality. If it can be well trained, it will be a good helper." The shopping guide saw Chen Xing observing the beast-controlling cub. Come over immediately and introduce with a smile. "Its parents are both at full energy level, and its father is a green-faced Shura crab that has evolved to level 51 once."
The enthusiasm of the shopping guide made Chen Xing feel a little uncomfortable. He was not planning to buy, but just came in to take a look.
The shopping guide was keenly aware of Chen Xing's discomfort and smiled and said, "Guest, please continue reading. If you need anything, call me anytime." After that, he retreated to the counter.
In addition to the Dancing Sickle Ghost Back Crab, placed in the middle is a clay doll that is all yellow in mud and 40 centimeters high. There is also a mud house built with mud in a huge two-meter-high glass box. It seems that Chen is aware of this. As Xing approached, the clay doll took two steps back and hid in the mud house, with half of its head peeking out to secretly look at Chen Xing.
I heard that clay dolls are elemental beasts. Even if an arm is lost, the head will be fine. Just put it back and it can be reconnected. Their weakness is something called "core".
The glass box on the right is filled with water, and the bottom is paved with some small white gravel. A half-meter-sized green snail is lying quietly in the tank.
Occasionally, some small shrimps or small fish get into the dark shell mouth, but the small fish and shrimp that go in never come out again.
This is the N35 Blue King Snail, known as the most dangerous beast in the Zecheng Secret Realm?
It looks like an ordinary blue snail, just a little bit bigger.
I heard that in the secret realm, the blue king snail will disguise itself as a young and beautiful woman, luring men into the hole under it, and then they will be eaten.
This is a scary story that many local children in Jincheng have heard. The protagonist is a water-magic dual-type monster in the secret realm of Zecheng, known as the most dangerous Green King Snail.
But what about women?
He saw it, where was the woman?
A snail girl will emerge from the bottom shell?
Chen Xing came closer and saw two bubbles spitting out of the dark shell mouth at the bottom of the blue king snail.
Early the next morning, Chen Xing gathered in the lobby on the first floor after having breakfast on the second floor.
Beside Coach Kuang, who was sitting on the sofa, there was a bald man sitting next to him.
"Is this your student? Is such a young kid going to adventure in a secret place?" The man next to the coach touched his bald head.
“Freshman in the first year of high school.” Kuang Shiyi was familiar with this man and his tone was natural.
The bald man sighed, "I went to the secret realm in my first year of high school, and the dolls now are really amazing! I remember I was twenty-four years old when I first entered the secret realm."
Thanks to Leo Dawang and Aiya for the reward!
