Walker Of The Worlds

The two men stared at each other for a moment in appreciation before stopping.

"Well then, I should start the briefing." Elder Zhan spoke.

"Yes, please tell me all that happened here." Lin Mu replied.

"Basically, this place was one of the outposts the merchants who are the members of the Merchant alliance used. The buildings on the surface were the facade while the actual storage places were these ungrounded rooms.

We have been using this for a long time and this place was one of the outposts supplying to the cities and towns nearby.

There would be regular caravans coming here and leaving here to the different places. They would store some of their goods here while some would exchange it here. Of course, the normal merchants were also allowed to use this outpost, though they didn't know the secret underground areas.

That was also how we were making more profits. Since our merchants could leave a part of their merchandise here to be exchanged with other external merchants. It saved them both time and effort, while netting extra profit.

All was going well until Gu Legion found out about it somehow. They mounted an offense here and attacked the outpost." Elder Zhan explained.

"And I'm guessing you all were heading here with another caravan as a guard?" Lin Mu asked.

"You're right. Thankfully, we were nearby or many more merchants would have died. Currently, half of the merchants that were here at that time died under the force of the Gu legion and the other half managed to escape.

We split a part of our group to help them escape and they should be relatively far by now." Elder Zhan replied.

"Hmm… I noticed. Though it still makes me confused that there are no bodies up on the surface. How's that possible?" Lin Mu questioned.
