Chapter 225 Rare Dark City (1)
But if someone reached this area, they found themselves staring at an extensive canyon around a massive waterfall.
However, an even more absurd thing was on the right steep wall of this canyon, over 300-meter high, there was a fifty-cubic meter, glistering black block, and it was extremely eye-catching in this kind of scenery.
Not only that, but there was a road-like platform in front of this black block, and its size was exactly the same as it was made for others to stand on it. But there was no road that led to this platform, and underneath was nothing but steep cliff and raging Great Star River!
But at this moment, a tall hooded figure clad in black was standing on this platform as he looked at the glittering black block with great interest in his amber eyes.
This person was naturally Jacob, who had just reached here a few moments ago.
He couldn\'t help but look at the virtual map on his star watch and the red mark continuously blinking right where he was standing.
Jacob couldn\'t help but mumble, "Just who built a city in the middle of a fucking cliff? And where the heck is the city anyway?"
If he hadn\'t seen this black block and platform, he won\'t have even bothered to climb up here and would have thought that this was some kind of error in the map.
However, there was no trace of any city here at all, and he couldn\'t help but start to wonder if the Dark City was playing some kind of joke with those who sought it in this extremely dangerous place.
Still, since he was here, he won\'t be going back without even trying. So, he touched the black block, trying to see if there was some kind of mechanism hidden within.
The moment Jacob\'s hand touched the black block\'s smooth surface, the black block suddenly lit up in white, and an electric voice sounded all of a sudden.
"Welcome to the Rare Dark City, Esteem Wanderer!
"Please Identify yourself!
"Seeking permission to scan the Star Watch
"Will you accept?"
Jacob cocked an eyebrow when he heard the voice and the same words on the black block, \'It\'s a screen?\'
He had only been in the uncommon region\'s dark city, and that place was not so advanced, so he was now curious about what the biggest dark city of the rare plains would be like.
So, he didn\'t hesitate and gave permission to scan his identity before he activated an 8-Star Nightmare Knight Badge.
Thereby, a red ray shone directly on the star watch before it vanished.
The electric voice rang again, "Identity Scan Complete!
"Faceless Ancient (8-Star Nightmare Knight)
"Dark City Status: Guest
"Dark City Criminal Record: None
"Dark City Noble Title: None
"Guest (Faceless Ancient), you are qualified to enter the Rare Dark City.
"Please Answer Three Entry Questions:
"1. Are you aware of Rare Dark City Rules?
"Yes/NO
"NOTE: If NO, please buy the Rule and Guild Book (100 Gold Coins)
"2. Are you a Wanted Criminal in Rare Plains?
"Yes/NO
"NOTE 1: The Dark City reserve all rights to investigate the \'Answer\' at any time, and it might have consequences if the answer does not match the investigation result, so please be honest.
"NOTE 2: Your answer will not be disclosed to anyone under any circumstance, and only in case you broke the Dark City Rule will this information can be disclosed to Dark City\'s Administrator!
"3. Are you willing to abide by all the rules of Dark City, and in case you break it, you are aware of the consequences?
"Yes/NO"
Jacob\'s eyes went cold when he looked at those three questions. These questions were clearly to make it clear that the rules of Dark City\'s rules shouldn\'t be broken, and they were absolute.
Furthermore, they even put a Rule and Guild Book, so no one was able to feign ignorance if they broke any rules.
This puts his mind at ease since he can stay here without getting worried about anyone attacking him or playing any tricks while remaining in the city.
So, he decided to buy the Rule and Guild book since 100 gold coins were nothing but chump change for him at this point. After the amount was deducted from his account, he received a virtual file of Rule and Guild Book. He\'ll read it once he enters the city.
Jacob then tapped into the answers without hesitation, except for the second question. He answered everything as yes. He wasn\'t a wanted criminal of Rare Plains, and neither he had any enmity with Freedom Plains.
Thereby, the electric voice rang again,
"Thank you for your cooperation.
"Now Please Choose Your \'Rare Dark Pass\' and \'Name\'
"Your Name Here?
"5 Days Pass: 100,000 Gold Coins
"15 Days Pass: 125,000 Gold Coins
"30 Days Pass: 150,000 Gold Coins
"60 Days Pass: 200,000 Gold Coins
"120 Days Pass: 350,000 Gold Coins
"NOTE 1: You can choose any random name, and this name will mirror your name in all transactions made within Dark City!
"NOTE 2: When the selected \'Rare Dark Pass Timer\' reaches ZERO, you\'ll have 60 minutes to leave the Dark City or Recharge the timer again.
"WARNING: If you neglect this, the Dark City Guards will detain you and impersonate you in the dungeon for six days and receive 1st Degree Torture. After your detention, you\'ll be banned from entering the Dark City for 5-months."
"So, this place also has the same entry pass and even harsher punishment. But it\'s far more expensive than the common plains." Jacob mumbled.
Nevertheless, he was quite happy about the \'NOTE:1\' because this would mean no one would know his real Star ID as long as he won\'t disclose it himself. He never thought the Dark City had such a function.
As long as his safety and privacy were guaranteed, Jacob won\'t mind paying this small price, so he selected the 120-Day Pass without hesitation!
