Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 288 - 275: Big Deal in Fengye City (Two-in-One)

Winter, the piercing cold wind blew.

As the most bustling city in the southwest of the Holy Mania Empire, Fengye City remained as lively as ever.

Carts loaded with goods hurriedly moved along the main road paved with marble; street vendors selling hot drinks and cooked food enthusiastically called out to passersby; city guards, clad in half-armor, dutifully patrolled the district to maintain order; distant chimes echoed from the church in the central square...

Suddenly, there was a slight commotion at the city gate, but it was quickly subdued by the guards.

The ground began to rumble, and accompanied by swirling dust, a convoy adorned with strange, serpentine symbols slowly entered through the towering city gate...

The citizens coming and going within the city merely glanced curiously, then returned to their own affairs.

There had been several such convoys in the city recently.

"Another merchant caravan has arrived."

"Judging by the style, it looks like it’s from the Aries Kingdom. Did they really come all the way from there?"

"They must be here for the Lord’s auction, right?"

"I think so. It’s rumored that the Lord raided an Oak Hand stronghold this time and captured quite a few elves!"

"It’s not just elves. I hear there are humans too, all destined to be slaves."

"Shh... keep it down."

The citizens whispered among themselves.

The caravan entering the city naturally consisted of players.

At this moment, the players watched the bustling and prosperous city before them, all wearing expressions of excitement.

"Fengye City, this is Fengye City!"

Little Xian Miao looked at the people coming and going in the city, her eyes shining brightly.

So many people! Such a bustling city!

This city was much more prosperous than Black Rock City in the Underworld!

"This must have been the former Elf Capital. You can still see some elven style in the architecture, though it seems the outer walls were constructed later."

The insight of Gu Gu Niao was equally keen.

However... her focus was more on the city’s architecture itself.

Li Mu looked at the people around him, watching them haggling with traders, observing the way they interacted with each other, and finally couldn’t help but exclaim,

"Ah... entering Black Rock City was one thing, entering Streamwood Town another, and now coming here... such a bustling main city, such lively NPCs, it’s hard to believe this is just a game..."

"Tch, Brother Mu, you’ve rambled on about this too many times! If it weren’t realistic, would it still be ’Elf Kingdom’? High-tech isn’t just for show, don’t worry about it! Exploring new maps, finding hidden storylines, and making a little money on the side are the most important things!"

On the other side, Dema rubbed his hands eagerly.

Just as the players were brimming with excitement, Anders, who had returned with them, jumped down from another carriage and walked over to them.

"Mr. Li Mu, Miss Xiao Xian Miao."

The old butler bowed slightly to Li Mu and Little Xian Miao,

"Here we are in Fengye City. I have urgent matters to attend to, so I won’t be accompanying you around the city."

"However... I know most of you are here for the elf slaves, and I can introduce you to the most famous Slave Trading Company in Fengye City."

"If there’s anything you need, you can feel free to bring it up with the Slave Trading Company. With my introduction, they’ll certainly treat you well and engage in business cooperation with you."

"Being the butler of the Earl, I do have this sort of connection."

Anders said proudly.

Upon hearing his words, the players’ eyes brightened.

Slave Trading Company!

That was exactly what they needed right now!

Upon learning that there would be an auction in Fengye City and among the auction’s assets were elves, the players realized... they had to intervene in this matter!

Rescue the elves?

No one would believe this wasn’t a hidden storyline!

"Thank you, Mr. Anders."

Li Mu smiled and bowed slightly to the old butler.

Anders was quite satisfied with Li Mu’s polite attitude.

He subtly straightened his posture even more.

Then, he reached into his pocket, pulled out a pen he carried with him, had a guard find a piece of paper, wrote something on it, and handed it to Li Mu,

"Mr. Li Mu, this is the address of the most famous Slave Trading Company in Fengye City. Mentioning my name will ensure you are well received."

"There are still three days until the Silver Moon Day, which is when the annual auction is held. With the Slave Trading Company’s introduction, you can all attend as special guests."

"So... I wish you all a pleasant time in Fengye City."

After speaking, Anders bade farewell to the players and hurriedly left.

After the old butler’s departure, the players exchanged glances, eager to explore Fengye City themselves...

However, at this moment, the skinny guard who had come with them suddenly stepped forward, wanting to speak but hesitating.

"Is there something you want to say, Mr. Tom?"

Li Mu asked calmly, sensing a slight shift in his heart.

During this period of interaction, the players had learned that this guard’s name was Tom.

However, being a commoner, he had only a given name, no surname.

"Lord Li Mu."

Tom hesitated for a moment, then clenched his teeth and said,

"If... you trust what I say, definitely don’t go to the company address Mr. Anders gave you."

"Hmm? Why?"

The players were very curious.

Tom took a deep breath and said,
