Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Underground Casino

Uh…

So delicious!!!

Wen Yuheng, who prided himself on his self-control, lost it completely. He wolfed down a plate of soy sauce-glazed pork bones and a small hot pot.

Despite having a belly round enough to start rolling, he still felt unsatisfied, even thinking he could polish off another three bowls of rice.

To think that eating a good meal could be so blissful!!

Wen Yuheng, now full and content, leaned on the sofa, and soon, drowsiness set in.

Elsewhere, Ji Wanwan was imagining the layout of her private space while pulling all the supplies into it.

Whether they would be of use didn’t matter, as long as she could use them for Equivalence Healing!

At the rate she was going, she soon emptied the 8-story home furnishings mall, leaving only a bunch of confused zombies and a lonely model room.

When Ji Wanwan teleported back to the model room, Wen Yuheng was already fast asleep on the sofa.

Seeing the completely cleaned off food on the table, Ji Wanwan was a little surprised.

Men growing their bodies really could eat, wow.

She hadn’t been gone long, and he had cleaned up everything, not leaving a single scrap; it seemed she had left too little…

Seeing that the man was sleeping deeply, looking quite exhausted, Ji Wanwan didn’t disturb him. She took off her shoes, curled up on the bed, and started summoning the System to arrange her private space.

By the time the private space was mostly set up, the man had had his fill of sleep.

Wen Yuheng woke up and saw the petite girl nestled on the bed, which made him feel slightly bewildered, and he couldn’t help but think of his sister.

If Xiao Lu hadn’t been hurt, she would probably be as untainted and peacefully beautiful as Ji Wanwan…

As he thought this, the girl on the bed moved.

She sat up, stretched, and looked at Wen Yuheng, “Awake? Have something to eat, and then let’s head out to the underground gambling den!”

With serious business ahead of them, Wen Yuheng blinked and shook off the excess thoughts in his head, “Okay!”

Ji Wanwan didn’t eat much because eating too full would make one sluggish, and she needed to stay alert for the night’s activities.

After Wen Yuheng finished eating, the two drove to the outskirts of the city.

As they neared the range of the Black Market, Ji Wanwan noticed a simple protective barrier made of wire mesh.

Two men wielding large knives stopped their car at the gate.

After showing their passes, the gatekeepers gave each of them a mask and a set of clothes: the masks were of a fox and a rabbit, and the clothes were the same white T-shirt and jeans for both men and women.

The two headed to the changing room, changed into the clothes, put on the masks, and then boarded a bus specifically heading to the underground gambling den.

There were already seven people seated on the bus, all wearing the same clothes and different types of masks.

As soon as she got on the bus, Ji Wanwan felt the energy fluctuations. The energies came from different people, some strong, some weak, some gentle, others violent.

Ji Wanwan sat down next to Wen Yuheng without showing any reaction and carefully sensed where these energies were coming from.

Suddenly, there came a scoff from behind her.

A hoarse, gruff voice said, “To think they’d dare to join the fun without even having a superpower. They really don’t know the heights of heaven and the depths of the earth.”

By the sound of it, the one with the Scorpion mask behind them seemed to be an old man.

From slightly behind them, a young woman wearing a Green Snake Mask chuckled coquettishly, “Youth should be feared. Who knows if the newcomers aren’t as good as the current ones? Old man, you better not look down on people…”

With the woman’s words, Ji Wanwan clearly felt a slight change in the energy fluctuations within the bus.

“Wow, impressive,” just the sound of the voice could set one’s imagination running wild.

Ji Wanwan sat still as a mountain, calmly leaning back in her seat with her eyes closed, resting her mind.

Without coming to the Black Market, one wouldn’t realize just how many superpower users there already were outside.

And this was just in Liancheng. What about beyond Liancheng?

What would the situation be like in the outside world?

As she was thinking, a man wearing a Lion Mask boarded the bus.

The moment he stepped on, the bus tipped momentarily, causing Ji Wanwan to suddenly open her eyes.

The man was built like a mountain, and his boarding immediately filled the limited space inside the bus, making it hard to breathe.

Ji Wanwan sensed a solid Earth Energy emanating from the man. The energy was clean, pure, and robust, indicating that his Superpower Level was not low.

Once the man settled into his seat, there was a “creak” as the door closed, and all the windows automatically darkened, preventing those inside from seeing outside.

Ji Wanwan twisted her fingertips, muttering to herself in disdain, “Pretty tight security there…

The vehicle drove for about ten minutes before coming to a stop.

The door opened, and the passengers got off one by one.

Ji Wanwan looked around at her surroundings, noting the iron walls that blocked all light. There was only a roller shutter gate large enough for the bus and an elevator for people to pass through.

Following the guide, everyone entered the elevator in turn. The moment the man with the Lion Mask stepped in, the elevator felt incredibly cramped.

The young woman wearing the Green Snake Mask spoke again, “Can’t they make this elevator a bit larger? I hate having to squeeze in with these stinking men. It’s so annoying!”

With the exception of Wen Yuheng and the Lion Man, the other men cast covetous glances at the Green Snake Woman.

The Green Snake Woman did not seem repulsed by their gazes; on the contrary, she relished in the attention, playing with the ends of her hair with her fingernails painted bright red.

The elevator descended for a short while before coming to a halt, and the group stepped out.

The guide took them to a small conference room.

The conference room had glass walls on all sides, offering an unobstructed view of the outside.

Through the glass, Ji Wanwan could see the entire structure of the underground casino.

The underground casino was arc-shaped, with five levels in total. They were on the second underground floor, with three more below them.

The first underground floor was at the top of the arc, with just one small room surrounded by glass walls. The glass had been treated so that Ji Wanwan could not see inside.

The second underground floor – where they were – had three identical rooms, also with glass walls, and similarly, she couldn’t see into the other two rooms either.

The third underground floor featured an open circular platform with several seats, which were currently occupied by quite a few people.

The fourth underground floor was a larger circular platform with many stalls and shops, but there weren’t many people moving around except for the vendors at that time.

The fifth underground floor boasted a fighting arena the size of a small soccer field, surrounded by iron fences, and it was too dim inside to see clearly what was there.

After bringing them to the conference room, the guide told them to take a seat wherever they pleased and then left.

There was a round table in the conference room with exactly ten seats.

People were choosing their preferred seats, but Wen Yuheng hesitated, standing still in his place.

Ji Wanwan noticed something was off and did not move either, “What’s wrong?”

Wen Yuheng felt a sense of unease and lowered his voice, “The Black Market deals happen on the fourth underground level, I’ve never been to this one before.”

He pointed towards the platform on the third underground level, “This is the first time I see this level open…”
