Death… And Me

Chapter 1396: No Clothes

Falangia, obviously, wouldn\'t go against the twins\' orders. "What would the two sirs want to know?"

Roan immediately asked, "First, is there a teleport formation in the city we can use?"

"Teleport formation?" Falangia couldn\'t help but take a deep breath before replying, "It does... but it\'s extremely expensive to use." One must remember that for the average low-level cultivator, even a single Rank One Divine Stone was hard to get. "I just heard about it, but to use the Formation Guild\'s teleport formation, you need hundreds of Divine Stones."

Rean nodded in response, asking, "Which rank?"

"What rank?" Falangia asked back in response.

Rean looked at her with a weird expression before saying, "What else would it be? I\'m asking which rank of Divine Stones the Formation Guild is asking to let others use their teleport formations."

Surprisingly, Falangia didn\'t even know that there were different ranks of Divine Stones. "I... don\'t know. Was there supposed to be more ranks of Divine Stones?"

Rean and Roan looked at each other after that. \'Seems like this place is even poorer than Lanqueas and Huring. She doesn\'t even know about the Divine Stone ranks...\'

Roan nodded after hearing that. \'That\'s to be expected. If Treavin is really just a huge desert, then Divine Stone mines are probably scarce compared to the other continents. But then again, it\'s exactly because they\'re poor that other continents probably don\'t want to waste their time dominating it.\'

\'That\'s true,\' Rean agreed. Soon after, he looked at Falangia before taking three Divine Stones from his spatial ring. "The first one is the Divine Stones you probably see every day, a Rank One Divine Stone. The second is a Rank Two Divine Stone. As for the last one, it\'s a Rank Three Divine Stone. Well, the Rank Three ones are quite hard to get."

For Falangia, who had rarely ever touched Rank One Divine Stones, just feeling the Divine Energy inside the Rank Two Divine Stone left her shocked. As for the Rank Three Divine Stones, it made her think she could have an instant breakthrough with that thing. There was just way too much Divine Energy inside that one. "To think such a wondrous thing exists..."

Rean then threw a Rank Two Divine Stone to Falangia and said to her, "I can\'t give you a Rank Three Divine Stone since they\'re expensive, but you can have this Rank Two. You are at the peak of the Initial Stage of the Core Formation Realm, right? To be honest, that\'s a very low cultivation for your age. You\'re what? Twenty already?"

Falangia looked at the Rank Two Divine Stone Rean gave her and barely had the capability to answer. "I\'m... nineteen..." She then looked at Rean and asked once more, "Can I really have it?"

Rean nodded. "Such Divine Stones are very easy for me to acquire more, so just take it. Consider it the payment for showing us the way to the Dry Sky City."

Falangia was obviously excited. However, she didn\'t forget Rean\'s first words. "You said my cultivation is low? I\'m quite good to be at this level at my age if you compare me to others."

Roan glanced at Rean and told him, "Don\'t forget how much poorer this continent probably is. Haven\'t you felt the Divine Energy in the air yet? This place doesn\'t have even a fifth of the normal Divine Energy we had in the other continents."

Rean nodded after hearing that. "Well, that makes sense."

Because Falangia lived close to the continental barrier, she obviously knew about other continents. It\'s just that it was the first time she saw someone who said they come from there. "You\'re not from here?"

Rean nodded again. "Exactly. That\'s why we\'re a little lost in this place."

Falangia then took a deep breath and began to explain. Who knows? Perhaps this was a great opportunity. "Then let me tell you what I know. We\'re in Miglia Desert, located on the south side of Dry Sky City. Dry Sky City is located in the Terga Country\'s southeast side."

Well, Rean and Roan already expected that location. They came from Huring, after all. Jhiod was supposed to be in the northwest portion. Naturally, if nothing went wrong, they would always enter the next continent from somewhere on the eastern side.

Falangia continued, "I heard that we\'re part of the Vankotis Region, but I don\'t know much about it. I can\'t say much more than that, though. I\'ve always lived in Dry Sky City."

Rean was satisfied with that. He had the jade slip with the general locations inside. With just that much information, he was already able to see where they were at the moment. "That\'s more than enough. Which power is controlling your Terga Country?"

"Power?" Falangia was puzzled. "You mean the lords of the cities?"

The one who was puzzled now was Rean. "Not really. For example, is there a royal family? Maybe some government? Things like that."

Falangia shook her head as she explained, "As far as I know, each city has its own rulers. However, I\'ve never heard about some bigger power controlling them. Everyone fends off for themselves. Anyone who wants to control a city can simply kill the actual city lord and take over. No one will complain about that."

Rean couldn\'t help but mention, \'It feels just like Africa back on Earth.\'

Roan agreed with that. \'The difference is that Africa was rich in resources, but this place is the opposite. In any case, such a lack of controlling power should only be present in the outskirts of the continent. The center is bound to have some big power taking care of things.\'

Kentucky then warned the group, telling them, "Hey, I think I can see the city."

"What?! Already?!" Falangia was taken aback. They left the bandits no more than an hour ago. Just how fast was Kentucky?

Rean then looked at Falangia, who seemed shocked by every single thing that happened. "By the way, even though you\'re feeling hot, is it really okay to enter the city naked?"

"Ah!"

After so many mind-blowing surprises, only now did Falangia remember that she hadn\'t put her clothes back on yet.
