Arad's unruly savior

Chapter 3297: The Rich Woman Sells Salt

More than a dozen charred bodies were carried out, covered with white cloth, emitting the smell of burnt meat, and someone was unwrapping the body bags.

Several reporters were using fog photography equipment to take continuous photos of the corpses, constantly changing the angle. So many people died in the fire at one time. This was big news that was big enough to shock Chongquan and would occupy the headlines of the Wulan Evening News tonight.

"How could something like this happen so suddenly?" Shu Mo murmured to herself, feeling vaguely unbelievable.

The dozen or so "pirates" who were taken away by the Eye of the Mist yesterday all died in a fire today. It was too tragic and too coincidental no matter how you thought about it.

"one two Three……"

The number also matches exactly. Could they really be the pirates from yesterday?

"Guyu, you are here."

Celia and Tana came together. The fire that killed more than a dozen people caused a huge impact, and half of Wulan knew about it. Their shop happened to be nearby, so they came to take a look.

The wealthy woman looked at Shu Mo, who was wearing a short white skirt, and said with a friendly smile, "This must be Miss Shu Mo, the protector of Baihai. She is indeed pretty and graceful."

"Hello...Hello, I'm Shu Mo." Shu Mo hurriedly stretched out her hand and shook hands with Sai Fu Po, and was immediately surprised at the two beautiful sisters.

Their skin is fair and smooth in the sunlight, with a soft and delicate charm, without a single flaw. Their facial features are as delicate as if drawn with a fine brush, so beautiful that it is almost dazzling.

One has a high gray ponytail, and the other has long straight black hair. Their dresses and cheongsams highlight their slender yet curvy perfect curves, which are very charming and are the ideal body type that Shu Mo pursues.

Moreover, their smiles were very kind and gentle, while Shas's smile was more like a professional smile, very bright, but also very stiff.

"They are rich women and dragons, no, Celia and Tana, they also came from the continent of Arad." Guyu said smoothly and then corrected it.

The two of them developed rapidly in Wulan. Not only did they accumulate wealth and buy shops, they also established relationships with some celebrities in Wulan and gradually built up their own network of contacts.

"What's going on over there?" Tana raised her snow-white chin. Guyu seemed to know some inside information about the background of the fire.

"We handed over a group of pirates to the Eye of the Mist branch yesterday..."

Guyu briefly recounted the whole story. He was now very depressed. He had been hoping to get some evidence from these people, but after just one night, everything was wasted.

"What a coincidence, I'm afraid it's not a substitution. I heard that some places would use fire dragons to burn granaries to cover up the deficit of the national granary, which is similar to what is happening now." Tana said sarcastically.

If you say there is nothing wrong with it, only ghosts will believe it. No one will believe it. Humans are more evil than ghosts.

"You mean..." Shu Mo's mood became heavier as she asked. More and more "truths" of the God Realm began to be exposed before her eyes. It was not at all as harmonious and beautiful as it seemed on the surface.

Tana smiled and said confidently, "They are all fake. Those who were burned to death were ordinary people. They were probably replaced from the morgue overnight. The real pirates have already fled."

According to Guyu, there are strong origin-level warriors among the captured "pirates". Even if the comprehensive combat power of the origin-level warriors in the God Realm is lower than that in the Demon Realm and the Arad Continent, at least they are at this level and are the masters of the same lineage.

It is almost impossible for ordinary flames to burn an origin-level strongman into charcoal.

Shu Mo suddenly realized and suddenly remembered Ye Lin's analysis on the Dark Island. There are still traitors inside the Eye of the Mist. They are not traitors who use evil spirits, but believers who are loyal to the God of Mist on the surface but whose inner thoughts have long since deviated from faith. Human hearts are unpredictable and the most difficult to find out.

Wulan can be called the most prosperous city in the divine world, with tall buildings, extravagant shops, and colorful fog lights illuminating a modern city. Intoxicated by this, perhaps the hearts of some believers have already changed.

"That's fine." Celia clapped her hands and said with interest, "Leave this to us. We'll track down the missing 'Tao'. It just happens to be a little bit of a holiday."

The reason can be traced back to Saifu Po's selling of salt. Salt is the most popular flavor and is in great demand, so the price of divine salt has always been high.

Because the ocean in the divine world is rather peculiar, the sea water has a distinct fishy and salty taste, but the salt obtained through the drying method is unexpectedly small, and the profit is very meager after deducting various costs.

Only the seawater near the Sky Sea has a lucrative salt content, but there are terrible monsters near the Sky Sea, and the legendary place of disaster is in the middle area of ​​the Sky Sea. It tastes salty but cannot be dried out. After research, Tana believes that it is related to "fog". This energy affects all aspects of the divine world.

Celia complained that the God of Mist was sweet and whether she ate pineapples every day.

The salt crisis made Celia successful. Now the rich woman has become the largest salt merchant in Wulan and even in the God Realm. Her rise is simple and profitable.

I used to sell blind boxes of "Celia's Luck" at Hutton Mar, but now I sell salt at a slightly lower price.

The divine world had no regulatory agency and was completely unable to stop Celia’s fierce offensive.

Salt is the king of all flavors and a necessity in life. It is in extremely high demand in the divine world. Even though everyone knows that Celia's rise was strange, it does not stop her from continuing to sell salt.

For the people, the drop in salt prices is a good thing, and they don’t care about the twists and turns behind it.

"There were pirates lurking near the empty sea trying to intercept the secret of my selling salt, but they failed. There were also bounty hunters who wanted to kidnap us." Celia shrugged, and then those people disappeared.

Her salt was all imported from the continent of Arad, so there was no need to go to the empty sea at all.

The means of commercial warfare are sometimes quite simple and unpretentious, which is to directly attack the other party.

She also accidentally met the deputy captain of the Demon Attack Team during an operation to chase an assassin. No, now it should be the captain.

She is a hunter lady with a mature figure, delicate makeup, unique blue-gray hair, a fur collar coat and a women's suit. She carefully irons every corner of her clothes every day. She has the temperament of a superior, likes to drink champagne, and always complains about how annoying her job is.

She also has a student named Troublesome Bianca.

At the first sight of her, Celia knew that she was no ordinary person. No one who could wear a fur collar coat was simple.

Celia plans to entrust the other party to investigate the truth behind the fire. She should like this kind of suspenseful event.

…………

Guyu took a few copies of Wulan's newspapers, cut through the void, and pulled Shu Mo back to Baihai, still near the Misty Plateau.

"Umu!"

The first one to sense that Shu Mo had returned safely was her mythical beast, the star turtle Wumu. It flew to Shu Mo and spun around happily. Shu Mo pointed her finger, and the star turtle Wumu spun around in a circle.

Many airships are leaving the Misty Plateau along a clear road. From the top of the Misty Plateau to the foot of the mountain, there is a believer of the Eye of the Mist standing at intervals along the clear passage, like a lighthouse pointing the way.

Even though Yue Na purified the White Sea's overly thick fog and evil spirits, the fog concentration in the Misty Plateau was still above the standard and could produce terrible hallucinogenic effects.

The people in the God Realm believe that the Goddess of Mist herself is sleeping in an alternate dimension near the Misty Plateau. Her gift, “Mist,” flows out from the Misty Plateau, spreading to the entire God Realm, bestowing her blessings.

In order to ensure the safe return of the airship, Yidan called almost all the believers who could control the fog, and also intended to repair the bedroom of the fog god.

"Guyu and the others are back, maybe they have some information, you should eat quickly." Behind a big tree, Ye Lin whispered to Sophie who was kneeling in front of him and wolfing down the delicious meat.

The latter nodded vigorously, rolled his eyes at him, said something indistinctly, and then gradually puffed up his cheeks.

Sophie frowned and spat out the sauce that came with the meat.

"What did you just say?" Ganzhe handed her a wet wipe.

"I said I like to sprinkle chili powder on my meat."

Ganzhe shuddered and quickly pulled up his pants.
