800: Chapter 800 The World of Platinum: The Savior's First Step
"This world looks quite beautiful. As for what was mentioned in the background, the world-destroying Devil King... has he not descended yet? Or is it for some other reason?"
Caesar looked around; the area was filled with the breath of nature, with birds singing, flowers blooming, and the sounds of insects and beasts.
It looked very peaceful, with no signs of the so-called "danger of world destruction."
Caesar opened the live stream, then looked around; he was currently in the wilderness.
So, the primary goal now is to find signs of human habitation, so as to understand more information and the current situation of this world.
Perhaps everything hasn't started yet, or perhaps, it is already happening in the shadows.
The Pious God Cult... the world-destroying Devil King Kulesuo... the Abyss invasion... the three most important things all need Caesar to solve.
At the very least, he must warn this world! Let the people of this world know that they have an enemy that the whole world must unite to deal with!
The enemy is in the dark while I am in the light. This means Caesar needs to do much more!
Caesar glanced ahead; there seemed to be a road about ten meters wide, flat and sturdy. He couldn't tell what Materials it was made of, but it had the scent of magic. Oh, in this world, it should be called elements, but it's the same meaning; magic also has elements.
It seems that the Elementalists of this world are also involved in infrastructure construction.
Caesar arrived on this road, looked back and forth, and decided to walk in the direction of the sun.
It was also the East, the direction where the other end of this road led.
Caesar set off. He walked steadily. Each step he took seemed small, but in reality, he could walk several meters with one step.
Walking along the road for about half an hour, Caesar saw many black shadows appearing ahead.
Looking closely, it seemed to be a caravan.
To be precise, it was a merchant caravan.
And the scale was not small. There were three carriages, and the people sitting inside should be of relatively high status.
Then there were more than a dozen carriages transporting goods.
On both sides, there were about ten knights riding tall horses, wearing light armor, with long swords hanging from their waists.
Next were the foot guards, at least dozens of them, and some laborers and the like.
All in all, the whole caravan had over a hundred people.
The armed force looked quite high.
Caesar approached the caravan quickly from behind.
Immediately, the guards at the tail discovered Caesar.
They didn't speak, but their eyes kept staring at Caesar, mainly because they saw Caesar was alone.
They were watching whether Caesar's goal was passing by or something else.
After Caesar approached, he shouted directly: "Excuse me! May I ask how far is the nearest city?"
Following Caesar's call, the caravan slowed down, and the curtain of the window in the middle carriage was lifted. A middle-aged man poked his head out and glanced at Caesar.
"Stop for a moment." With the middle-aged man's words, the entire caravan stopped.
Seeing this, Caesar walked towards the middle-aged man.
"Hmm?" Several guards blocked Caesar, not letting him get too close.
"I am the steward of the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce. May I ask what you are doing?" The steward asked, looking at Caesar. He saw that Caesar was imposing and extraordinary, wearing a set of exquisite and luxurious armor, but it was covered with countless scars, which looked like they were left by countless battles.
It's not that Caesar didn't repair it, but it had been repaired too many times, and it didn't affect the effect. Those scars were indelible marks left by fighting monsters and creatures of Hell, but they were all on the surface and didn't matter; at most, the appearance was a bit worse.
In essence, Caesar's armor and his sword were both legendary-grade equipment; it would not be an exaggeration to call them a Divine Artifact.
The steward looked at Caesar carefully for a moment and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of oppression and fear of death.
He only felt this kind of feeling from those top-tier swordsmen served by the Chamber of Commerce.
It was like a huge Siberian tiger coming in front of you; even if you knew it wouldn't hurt you, you would still feel scared.
That was the sense of oppression brought by a more top-tier "predator," and it was more of a feeling that it could take your life at any time.
The steward saw that Caesar was alone, and his attitude was low and relatively kind, so he couldn't help but have some thoughts.
"Are you asking about the nearest city?" The steward asked Caesar.
"Yes, how far is it from here?" Caesar nodded and said.
"The nearest city is just along this road. According to our current speed, it is estimated to be a two-day journey. It just so happens that we are also going to Black Stone City. If you don't mind, why don't we go together? We can keep each other company on the road." The steward invited Caesar.
"Alright, then I will disturb you." Caesar thought for a moment and agreed.
After all, he was new to this world. Except for a little bit of world background, he knew very little about the actual things in this world. He could take this opportunity to learn more.
Moreover, there was the guidance of "locals." Looking at the scale of this caravan, it was not small. It had a special Family emblem, a Chamber of Commerce flag, and the overall strength looked not bad.
It should be a well-known existence. Following such a group would be helpful for all his activities in this world.
Thus, by mutual consent (not really), both sides reached an agreement.
The steward enthusiastically invited Caesar onto his carriage.
"Continue on the road!" The steward shouted, and the caravan continued to move forward.
The space inside the carriage was not small; let alone sitting two people, even if two more came, it would be more than enough.
Moreover, there was a tea table with fruits, food, and a pot of tea on it.
"Sit, sit, be casual, eat and drink as you please." The steward said to Caesar with a smile, and then poured a cup of tea for Caesar.
The vehicle was very stable, and the speed was not slow, roughly the speed of a person running.
"I don't know where you come from?" The steward asked Caesar.
"This humble monk comes from the Great Tang in the East..."
"I come from a far-away place." Caesar shook his head slightly and said: "I have lived in the deep mountains for a long time and don't know much about the outside world and the situation."
"Oh?" The steward heard this, his eyes flickered, and his mind immediately became active.
Caesar didn't look weak and could be recruited. Anyway, the Chamber of Commerce supported so many people every month. Money can never be earned enough; strength is the root!
However, the steward intended to test him first: "Oh? Does that mean you are currently homeless?"
"Pretty much. I plan to go to the nearest city, oh, that Black Stone City you mentioned, to take a look around, and by the way, understand what the world is like nowadays." Caesar said to the steward.
It was very true because that was exactly what he was going to do.
"Since that's the case... if you think highly of our Black Gold Chamber of Commerce, I am willing to give you a free place to live, as a way to build a good relationship. As for the rest, we can talk about it later, how about that?" The steward said to Caesar.
"That would be best, and I will accept your favor." Caesar did not hesitate, nodded slightly, and agreed.
The steward's eyes lit up slightly, and a smile immediately appeared on his face: "Anyway, if you have anything, just come to the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce branch in Black Stone City to find me. Here, this is the Gold Pass of the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce. Holding it, you are a distinguished guest of the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce."
The steward immediately took out a card made of gold and some unknown Materials from his bosom. It looked very luxurious, but because it was black and gold, it appeared somewhat restrained.
