“S-sir, are you a member of the Darkshadow clan in the north of the Empire?”

Carolyn asked, trembling slightly.

So far, only the Darkshadow clan in the north of the empire was capable of controlling the void demons.

That was why she asked.

Hearing the girl’s question, Adam turned his head in puzzlement.

He had also heard that his void slave seemed to have been misunderstood.

He had mistaken his identity as someone from a certain awakened family.

However, Adam would not be foolish enough to go out and explain. This was exactly the effect he wanted.

Mysterious and powerful!

Seeing the reactions of the people around him, Adam knew that this exchange meeting was about to come to an end.

Judging from their attitude, they wouldn’t be able to make any more transactions.

However, it was enough to buy the most important cultivation methods and books related to common sense.

This conference wasn’t wasted.

Just as Adam was about to leave, a person dressed as an attendant walked over.

“Sir, Madam, the organizer of our exchange meeting would like to invite the two of you over for a chat!”

“I wonder if the two esteemed gentlemen and Madam have the time to honor us.”

After hesitating for a moment, Adam agreed.

The purpose of coming out this time was to understand more about the awakened world.

Now that he could come into contact with a higher level, he was naturally willing.

When Carolyn saw that Adam had agreed, she could only go together.

After all, she wasn’t Adam. She was just an ordinary one-star awakened.

The organizer of the exchange meeting was able to invite her because of Adam’s face. How could she have the courage to refuse.

Under the lead of the attendant, the two of them came to the depths of the bamboo forest.

There was a manor that was neither big nor small. It seemed that the organizer of this exchange meeting was here.

After entering the manor, an old man in a suit sat at the head seat. There were two other people.

Adam had seen these two people before.

They were the burly man in women’s clothing and the fox-faced old man who had been at the door from the beginning.

After Adam and Carolyn entered, they looked at him in unison.

“The honored guest is here. Please come in, please come in!”

The old man in the suit said enthusiastically.

However, Adam noticed that although the old man’s words sounded very warm.

His body was still sitting on the chair. He had no intention of getting up.

Adam narrowed his eyes. This time, the small talk might not be that simple!

However, with his strength, Adam was not afraid.

Other than the void slaves, he had also called the Balloon of Fear over.

At this moment, the Balloon of Fear was right above the manor.

As long as he willed it, the Balloon of Fear would be able to reach the manor in an instant.

Adam and Carolyn took their seats.

The old man in a suit who was in the lead spoke.

“This is the first time that the guest has come to visit the exchange conference that I’m hosting, right?”

Although it was a question, he used a certain tone.

Adam nodded.

“Sir, you really showed off at the exchange meeting today!”

Hearing this, Adam didn’t say anything. He just picked up his wine glass and took a sip.

Seeing that Adam didn’t say anything, the old man in the suit said directly.

“Since I held the exchange meeting, there have been 34 times, but this is the first time someone died at the exchange meeting. Sir, don’t you think you should give me an explanation as your organizer?”

Adam sneered in his heart.

He didn’t believe that someone would stand up for a dead person and offend an awakened who looked superior.

Especially when the reputation of the dead person was not good.

He chuckled. “How do I do things? Why do I need to explain myself to others?”

Hearing this, everyone present was shocked!

So domineering!

But Carolyn, who was sitting next to Adam, was really panicking.

She turned to Adam and whispered, “Sir, he is Zoans!”

“He is the strongest awakened among the people of St. Paul!”

“His strength has already reached the three-star level!”

“Vijado broke his rules previously and was heavily injured by him with a slap. He laid in bed for half a year to recuperate!”

“You are not his match. You should be more tactful!”

No one said anything. Adam still looked as if he did not care.

He knew that the more he looked down on them, the more they would think of him as a strong person.

That was because the strong had their own dignity. Only the weak would be afraid of the attitude of others.

Moreover, he was sure that this old man in a suit was just testing him.

As expected, Zoans slammed the table and said loudly, “Good! As expected of someone from the Hidden Shadow Family!”

Seeing his attitude, Adam smiled lightly.

“Mr. Zoans, you didn’t invite me over to chat this time just to praise me, right?”

Zoans chuckled.

“That’s right. I invited you because of a treasure.”

“Treasure?”Adam raised his eyebrows.

“Tell me in detail!”

Seeing that Adam was beginning to be interested in his words, Zoan’s eyes flashed with joy as he continued speaking.

“It’s like this. A month ago, a group of eye-eaters snatched the goods transported by an ordinary merchant group…”

“Eye-eaters!”

A sudden exclamation interrupted Zorns’words.

It was none other than Carolyn who was exclaiming.

Realizing that she had accidentally interrupted Zorns’words, she immediately panicked. “I’m sorry, please continue!”

“It’s okay, beautiful lady!”

Zorns gave her a tolerant smile. “It seems like you know about eye-eaters too?”

“That’s right!”Carolyn nodded.

There was obvious disgust in her eyes.

“Eaters are cultists who worship the evil god of the Evil Eye. Every time they worship, they will dig out the eyeballs of a thousand people.”

“And they specifically choose girls who are under the age of twelve. Their creed is to contribute the purest eyeballs to the evil god.”

“In order to be able to worship at any time, they will deliberately keep the girls in captivity and use healing spells to treat them. The purpose is to continuously obtain the eyeballs of the girls.”

“Among the heretics currently registered in the special class, the eye-eaters are the most vicious and the least human!”

“Those eye-eaters deserve to die!”

As she finished speaking, the young girl’s emotions clearly became agitated!

Adam, who was at the side, nodded in his heart and understood what an eye-eater was.

“It seems that the lady is quite familiar with this eye-eater. Let me continue with what I have to say.”

“Although the caravan that was robbed by the eater looked ordinary on the surface, one of them had an unusual treasure!”

“Oh, an item that you call a treasure, it must not be simple!”

Adam asked indifferently.

Since this Zoans was a three-star awakened, an item that could be called a treasure by him must be at least a four-star item.

“Yes, a dragon egg!”

“What!”

Even Adam, who had always maintained a calm and aloof attitude, was shocked.

It was actually a dragon egg?

Whether it was in his previous world or this world, dragons were legendary creatures.

A cup of dragon eggs!

This news was simply too shocking.

Adam couldn’t imagine how much of an impact this matter would have if it was leaked.

If it was a real dragon, the material would be at least five stars.
