Chapter 198: Being forced to accept the deal

The old woman's words startled Liu Yang. It scared him a lot. He didn't imagine that she would have the skill to see the future.

When he remembered the scene where Deston had his arms cut and his legs broken before he was dragged like trash. Liu Yang realized that the slave market had a big background, the old woman.

Who didn't want to know about his future? No one wanted to risk dying the next day.

Many powerful nobles in the Temore Kingdom ask for advice from an old woman. She is one of the richest and most respected people in the kingdom, there were not many people who had the courage to cause problems for her.

If Deston knew that the slave market had such a background, he would never have the courage to cause trouble. But it was a pity that he didn't know that.

Few people at the Adventurers Agency know about this. So it's normal for him not to know.

"..." Liu Yang did not comment on the old woman's words, he was silent contemplating.

"Mr. River, you don't have to take seriously what I said. But you need to remember that you heard some privileged information" The old woman commented.

Her words woke Liu Yang out of his thoughts.

"I see ... Are you wanting me to accept this agreement, regardless of my will?" Liu Yang narrowed his eyes.

"Mr. River, you're wrong. I'm not forcing you to do anything, I'm just giving you a little warning. Furthermore, this agreement is not bad. You can even get great benefits from it" The old woman replied softly.

"I see ... Why do you think I will be able to fulfill my part of this agreement?" Liu Yang does not know what the old woman saw with her skill to see the future. But he didn't trust that much.

What Liu Yang does not know is that the old woman saw nothing because the skill showed nothing.

"As someone who has seen many things, you are the first person who has shown such a magnificent vision to this old woman" She did not speak about her skill. She just vaguely commented on a few things.

"I see Before I accept this agreement, I'm being forced to accept it. I want to know some things" As Liu Yang was being forced to do this, he had no choice, but before accepting, he will make some preparations.

"What kind of things does Mr. River want to know?"

"What kind of place is this Wild Region? A person like me who lives far from high-level places doesn't know about it." Liu Yang justified his question.

"The Wild Region is a place outside the jurisdiction of the nine kingdoms, that is, the place does not belong to any kingdom. This place is where the owner of things is defined by power, the more power you have, the more things you will get. No matter what it is, it can be women, money, fame, anything is obtained by power." The old woman explained vaguely. She didn't have to explain too much for Liu Yang to understand the hidden meaning of her words.

"I see What is the level limit for this place? If there is a minimum level, there must be a maximum level, right?"

"Yes. The level limit is 400 "

"400 ..." Liu Yang was thoughtful. This was much bigger than he imagined.

(Level 400 is almost two hundred levels above the minimum. This place called the Wild Region must be very dangerous for weak people) Liu Yang thought. He wanted to go there, but before that, he needs to be somewhere between 350-400.

Liu Yang did not want to go there at levels 201, which is equivalent to suicide.

"Mr. River, you don't have to worry about that right now. This flyer is for five years from now. If Mr. River manages to reach level 201 or above in five years, you can go to the slave market in the capital of the Temore Kingdom to look for me."

"I see"

(Five years should be enough time for me to level, but I don't know how much I can level during that time. I already have a little over a hundred slaves, the amount of experience I get from killing the creatures is much less than before. ) Liu Yang was thoughtful about it. He needed to find ways to get stronger before he decided to go to the Wild Region.

"What is this place that the Adventurers Agency is looking to explore?"

"According to privileged information, the place is some kind of ruin that belonged to some ancient civilization. In this type of place, there are many ancient and powerful weapons left behind by the ancient peoples. It is a place with many types of rare and hidden treasures "

"But there are also a lot of dangerous creatures living inside that place, right?" Liu Yang compared the old woman's words to a dungeon in MMORPG games.

"Yes. Mr. River, you know that phrase, right? No pain no gain. If there are no dangers, there will be no gains"

"That's true. So what kinds of benefits will I receive if I accept the agreement?" Liu Yang already learned what he wanted, now, he was curious about the benefits.

"In addition to the auction slave, my slave market will give you three more slaves. You can choose any one of them from the slaves sold in the slave market"

"I see ... What will happen if I can't keep the deal?"

"..." The old woman did not answer Liu Yang's words. She just smiled at him, but her smile was as mean as a movie villain.

Liu Yang did not need the answer to know what to expect if he fails to fulfill his part of the agreement.

"Mr. River, will you accept the deal?"

"I accept the deal" Liu Yang was already being forced to accept the deal. So he had no way of escaping that.

"I thank you for accepting the agreement. Take this, this is a special communication device. Five years and four months from now, this device will activate automatically. Until that day, you need to keep that item well" The old woman handed Liu Yang a brooch.

"Smoothly. As for the slaves, how am I going to get them? I will have a lot of problems if I leave here and go to the slave market"

"Look at this book and tell me which slaves you want. This book has special slaves that are not in the common catalog." The old woman showed Liu Yang a golden book.

The book was small and was about twenty pages long, but each market slave on the pages is either extremely powerful or with rare skills. Each page had a slave, that is, the book had a total of twenty slaves written.

Unlike the slaves sold in the slave market, the gold book had slaves that only special customers can buy.

"I see ..." Liu Yang started to leaf through the book. He was surprised to see so many powerful slaves.

It didn't take long for Liu Yang to finish looking at the book.
