Chapter 4117 Purple Egg
"Because of the leech industry, although Vampire Town is not in the core area, the number of nobles there is no less than that in the core area."
"The Divine Fiend's headquarters shouldn't be here, right?"
In Kaiya's mind, such an evil villain should have its base in a remote and chaotic area.
The vampire town is neither remote nor unpopular. The God Extermination Bureau and the law enforcement team both have offices there... Surely the people of the God-worshipping faction wouldn't be so bold as to set up their posts under the watchful eyes of the authorities?
The wine glass, however, felt that Kaiya's ideas were too stereotypical.
"Perhaps the religious faction likes to engage in covert activities?"
Kaiya: "...It's not impossible that things are darkest under the lamp. But the God Slayers and the Enforcement Team aren't stupid either."
Na then quietly added, "Perhaps the people from the God Extermination Division and the Enforcement Team are even cooperating with the God-worshipping Faction."
Kaeya: "???"
Na: "Didn't you just say that Vampire Town has the largest leech offering manufacturing company in the entire world? Maybe this company was set up by the gods."
"If they're the ones running it, it's perfectly normal for the God Extermination Division and the Enforcement Team to cooperate with them."
Kaeya: "...That's utterly outrageous."
Na shrugged and continued to lean on the milk dragon's shoulder: "No, this isn't meant to be outrageous, it's just to give you a new perspective. After all, you've lived in this game for too long, you're used to the rules here, and you would never think in this direction."
"Therefore, we outsiders are needed to sound the alarm for you."
Na's words startled Kaiya.
It seems...it seems to make some sense? But then again, it feels strange, like it was forcibly forced into his mind...
While Kaiya was completely bewildered, the wine glass sighed silently and looked at Na: "Although I also think it's wrong for Kaiya to directly deny the vampire town, your argument is even more wrong. Kaiya has lived here for a long time, so he knows more and understands things better than we do."
"We've only just arrived, and we don't know anything yet. To speculate based on nothing is clearly absurd."
The saying "the bystander sees most of the game" is not wrong.
However, the premise of "the bystander sees more of the game" is that the bystander has already seen the whole game and, as an outsider, is better able to understand the situation.
Although they are outsiders, they do not have a comprehensive view of the situation, and their opinions are certainly unfounded.
What Na just said was just a way of fooling Kaiya.
Na was caught off guard by the wine glass, but she wasn't angry. She smiled and said, "I was just guessing. Isn't that how it's always portrayed in novels and plays?"
"Novels and plays are all about plot twists and turns; they go to any lengths to defy the odds," Wine Glass quipped.
Na: "But sometimes reality is even more outrageous than fiction and drama."
The wine glass didn't complain this time, because what it said was actually true...
"Stop arguing for now." The milk dragon grumbled, "Let's put the situation in Vampire Town aside for now, and talk about Dream Beast Town."
Kaiya nodded: "Dream Beast Town's fame in the entire Yi World is definitely not as great as Vampire Town; but if we only consider the Wanmeng Cloud Harbor region, Dream Beast Town's fame surpasses that of Vampire Town."
"Because there are a lot of dream beasts kept there."
Dream Beast is a beast of dreams.
Kaiya didn't know where they came from. But he had heard that the Creator had cooperated with a great will to introduce the Dream Beasts.
“Dream Beasts only appear in Dream Harbor; they can’t be seen anywhere else.” Kaiya said this with considerable pride, “Especially in Dream Harbor City, where the Dream Beast industry has been integrated into every aspect.”
"For example, there are Floating Ray Bus, Cloud Fox Bus... You can get a one-month unlimited travel pass by paying just one Soul Coin."
"Also, all goods from Fogbird Logistics are transported by Dream Beasts, which is extremely fast. If you place an order in the morning, it will be delivered to your doorstep by noon."
"Also, after the Purple Chick shines on the moon, it will lay eggs. Eating its eggs can temporarily prevent the Night Moon Mark. Compared to using Soul Coins to create a protective shield, the Purple Chick's eggs are more cost-effective."
Kaeya talked at length about the Dream Beast.
Much of the information contained was new to everyone.
For example, the eggs of dream beasts can withstand the light of moonlight.
There's even a dream beast called the Color Mist Shell, which only requires five Soul Coins to stay in for one night.
The Mist Shell can even withstand the erosion of the Blood Moon!
Therefore, the integration of the dream beasts into the life of Cloud Harbor City, as Kaiya mentioned, is fully demonstrated here.
"Since the Dream Beasts and Cloud Harbor City are so closely linked, why haven't we seen many Dream Beasts along the way?" Wine Glass asked curiously.
Kaeya: "There are very few dream beasts in the border towns; they are mostly in the core area."
However, it's not entirely absent. For example, the terminal for the Narwhale Bus is located in the border town, and occasionally you can look up and see the enormous Narwhale soaring in the sky.
"So now you understand how important Dream Beasts are to us," Kaeya said. "And Dream Beast Town is a place specifically for breeding Dream Beasts. Its importance to the people of Cloud Harbor City is even greater than that of Vampire Town."
Everyone nodded in understanding.
Wine Glass: "So, Dream Beast Town must have quite a few nobles?"
Kaiya nodded: "That's right. The high-ranking nobles in the inner city also frequently visit Dream Beast Town to commission unique Dream Beasts."
Therefore, there are many nobles in Dream Beast Town.
"Moreover, the largest border post of the law enforcement team is located in Dream Beast Town."
Although the individual strength of the members of the enforcement team is not as strong as that of the Godslayer Division, the enforcement team always dispatches multiple people and sets up large-scale team ritual formations. In a real battle, their effectiveness is no less than that of the members of the Godslayer Division.
Therefore, Kaiya believes that the stronghold of the Divine Faction is unlikely to be Dream Beast Town.
“Perhaps the silent geographical profile you mentioned is incorrect?” Kaiya: “How about we take a look at other border towns?”
Wine Glass shook his head: "Although Na sometimes likes to exaggerate, this silent geographical portrait is without any errors or omissions."
If the Silent Operations orchestrated by the Divine Faction truly follow the geographical profile of "Criminal Psychology," then their bases are most likely located in Vampire Town and Dream Beast Town.
Nailong nodded hesitantly, indicating his agreement with Na's circle.
"Should we go back first and discuss it with Mud Lord?" Seeing the eagerness in everyone's eyes, Kaiya knew he couldn't persuade them for the time being, and could only hope that Mud Lord could convince them.
This time, no one refused, and so, led by Kaiya, they prepared to return.
However, just as they were about to step out of the pile of old newspapers, Kaiya paused: "Wait, the moon is out."
Everyone looked out in the direction of the sound, and sure enough, the mist that had been shrouding the sky had slowly dissipated.
Outside the door, the ground was covered with a blanket of silvery frost.
Kaiya took out a small black, light-blocking cloth bag from his pocket, and then quickly took out four small, purple, oval eggs from the bag and distributed them to everyone.
It's about the size of a quail egg.
"This is the Purple Chick Egg produced in Dream Beast Town. If you eat this, you won't have to worry about being marked by Night Moon."
After Kaiya finished speaking, he even gave a demonstration.
He flicked the eggshell with his knuckles, revealing the thick purple mist that had gathered inside.
Then, Kaiya brought his nose close to the eggshell and took a deep breath. The thick purple mist, like a purple water dragon, entered his nasal cavity.
Before long, a faint purple mist began to slowly emanate from around Kaiya.
It's hard to notice unless you look closely because it's so thin.
Kaiya walked into the courtyard, enveloped in a light mist. The moonlight shone down, having no effect on him.
"Just follow my instructions and inhale the purple egg's energy directly to resist the moonlight."
The group held the purple eggs in their hands, but did not immediately follow the instructions, mainly because they were a little worried... after all, this was their first time.
Wine glass: "How long does the effect of the Purple Egg usually last?"
Kaiya thought for a moment and said, "It depends on the quality of the Purple Chick Egg. A high-quality Purple Chick Egg can last for three to five days. The Purple Chick Eggs I bought are of average quality, and generally speaking, they can last for a whole night."
As for how to determine exactly when the effects of the Purple Egg will end, Kaeya says that after consuming the Purple Egg, one can feel a mist core within their body.
This mist core will continuously emit a light purple mist. The fact that Kaeya is currently surrounded by a light mist is a sign that the Purple Egg is in effect.
Once the core of mist within the body is completely consumed and the body no longer emits purple mist, the effect of the Purple Egg is considered complete, and a new egg will be consumed.
Kaiya explained in great detail, and after thinking for a moment, the wine glass prepared to consume the purple egg.
At this moment, Milk Dragon stopped her: "I'll go first, umm, you're the most important one among us. If I'm alright, you can take it later."
The wine glass nodded silently.
Following Kaeya's example, the Milk Dragon cracked open the eggshell and forcefully inhaled the thick purple mist inside.
The milk dragon closed its eyes, seemingly sensing something.
After a moment, Milk Dragon said softly, "I can feel the core of the mist. It's very strange, umm... it's like an extra organ in my body. And this organ can be felt through internal vision."
Milk Dragon's words also proved what Kaeya had just said.
"Hmm, I'll go out and try looking in the moonlight."
After saying this, Nailong slowly walked out of the pile of old newspapers, and was greeted by a bright moonlight.
Based on the previous challengers' experiences, they would "die" immediately upon being exposed to moonlight.
But this time, something unexpected happened. Although the moonlight shone on him, it was blocked by a thin layer of purple mist. It didn't penetrate his soul, nor did it extract the Soul Coin.
Everything was the same as when we were indoors.
Kaeya was not lying to them; the Purple Egg could block moonlight.
The next step is to confirm the rate at which the fog core is consumed.
Milk Dragon stayed under the moonlight for a while, closing his eyes to feel the depletion of the mist core. After a moment, he turned to the wine glass and said, "If I stay under the moonlight, well, the mist core will probably disappear in about eleven hours."
Eleven hours, that's a whole night.
Wine Cup and Na exchanged a glance, then without further hesitation, they cracked open the shells of the Purple Egg and inhaled the thick purple mist.
Following the example of Milk Dragon, the two of them walked for a while in the moonlight to make sure they were in the right place before finally letting out a sigh of relief.
“It can last for eleven hours under moonlight, but once inside a building, the fog dissipates more slowly.” Na: “So, as long as you don’t stay under moonlight all the time, a Purple Egg should last for more than twelve hours.”
Kaiya walked over with a smile: "I didn't lie to you, did I? As long as it's not Red Moon, a Purple Egg is enough."
Wine glass: "Are purple chickpea eggs expensive?"
Most of the attention was now focused on Kaeya, since he had produced three Purple Eggs at once.
Kaiya scratched his head: "It's not expensive. For an ordinary person, one Soul Coin can buy ten low-grade Purple Eggs."
“I am Yi Gui, so it will be cheaper. One Soul Coin can buy one hundred low-grade Purple Eggs. If it were a regular quality one, it would probably buy twenty.”
The purple eggs that Kaeya gave to everyone were of ordinary quality.
Converted to a price, that's three-twentieth of a Soul Coin.
Although the price wasn't expensive, they still owed Kaiya a debt of gratitude.
After all, without the Purple Egg, they couldn't even move around.
The man thanked Kaiya with the wine glass, saying he would find a way to make it up to him later. However, Kaiya waved his hand dismissively; as a nobleman, he had plenty of ways to make money.
He could even make a lot of money by casting purification arrays on people if he wanted to.
“Besides, aren’t we comrades now?” Kaeya: “Comrades don’t need to be so polite.”
The wine glass chuckled softly: "Yes, we are companions."
……
The return journey was peaceful, without any unexpected incidents.
However, during their casual conversation along the way, they obtained an unexpected piece of information.
At that moment, Kaiya asked curiously where Coleman and the Ice Maiden's physical bodies were, and whether they needed his help to take care of them.
Wine Glass and the others had already thought of how to answer this question beforehand.
After all, they said they were going to save Coleman and Ice Maiden, but they didn't know where their physical bodies were, which would be hard to explain.
Therefore, they decided to answer truthfully.
The same old excuse they used: "bonds."
Through their bond, they witnessed the aftermath of Coleman and the Ice Maiden's physical bodies being rescued by a being of extremely high status, and then placed in a white tower for treatment.
They also described the appearance of the white pagoda in detail.
After hearing this, Kaeya immediately said, "This is the Guardian Tower of Nightsleep Town."
"Late Sleep Town? Is it also a border town?"
Kaiya shook her head: "No."
According to Kaiya, Sleepy Town is not a border town, but an independent town near Cloud Harbor City with a permanent population of 30,000.
Despite its small population, the fact that it has managed to become an independent town and not be swallowed up by Yungang City is enough to show that this town has a rich history and culture.
But what exactly its secrets were, Kaiya himself didn't know; he had only heard that it seemed to produce very mysterious offerings.
As for the "Guardian's Tower," Kaeya had only seen it from afar and didn't know what was inside. He had only heard that it was built by a powerful family in Sleepy Town.
"By the way, you just mentioned the existence of higher-ranking beings... what is that?"
