Chapter 139: Market.

After Ban Lun finished speaking, he thought Lu Xiao would leave immediately, but unexpectedly Lu Xiao looked at him instead: "When will my terminal be returned to me?"

When he woke up, he found that the terminal on his wrist was missing. Lu Xiao had never asked about it, nor had she looked for it. She spoke at this time just to confirm one thing.

"I'll give it back to you when you need it. You won't need that kind of thing here."

Hearing this, Lu Xiao curled her lips and said, "I see. If I buy something, it will be charged to your account. Thank you."

Ban Lun: “…”

No, is that what he meant?

However, regardless of whether it was true or not, Lu Xiao asked him for her own terminal, but he didn't give it to her. Now that he says that Lu Xiao can't spend money, wouldn't it make him seem stingy?
Ban Lun felt that he seemed to have underestimated the intelligence of the little female in front of him.

"It is my honor to serve Mr. Lu Xiao."

"That's good. Where are your people?"

"...I'll be there soon." Ban Lun stood up and walked to the desk. He casually pressed a control button on the desk and said, "Send a smart person over to take Lu Xiaoge down to visit our underground city."

Not long after Banlun dialed the internal line, there was a knock on the door. Lu Xiao stood there, looking towards the door silently. The moment she saw that the person who appeared at the door was not Fred, the expectation in her heart disappeared, but she was not disappointed either.

After all, there aren't that many coincidences.

The person who came in was the male orc who brought her here before.

"Kro, take good care of Lord Lu Xiao."

"I will, Lord Banlun. Lord Lu Xiao, please come this way." Lu Xiao nodded at Banlun and walked towards Kro.

After coming out of the office, Kro still walked a little distance away from Lu Xiao and remained silent.

"Aren't you going to tell me where you're taking me?"

The other person's body trembled slightly, and he quickly glanced at Lu Xiao, then turned back quickly. Even with the mask on, he could still

Seeing a layer of powder on the exposed skin, he said: "We only have one market here, it's very lively, there are all kinds of things, you can go there
You’ll know once you see it.”

"Oh, how long have you been here?" Lu Xiao was not actually curious about the market here. She just wanted to find an excuse to walk around and see if she could find some opportunities.

At this moment, Kro was the only one by her side, so naturally she had to start with him.

The tone of her voice was as if she was just asking casually and it didn't matter whether the other party answered or not.

This approach will make people unconsciously relax their vigilance.

It seemed as if Kro did not expect Lu Xiao to talk to him. After all, the females he had met in the past never looked at them straight in the eye, as if they were some dirty things.

Not to mention, talk to them.

But he did not feel any arrogant discrimination from the little female in front of him.

This made his hands and feet feel numb and he didn't know what to do.

"I, I grew up here since I was a child."

This answer really surprised Lu Xiao: "Why did you grow up in a place like this?"

Faced with Lu Xiao's doubts, although Kro felt a little uncomfortable, he did not feel embarrassed.

Lu Xiao asked this question because she seemed to really not know the answer, rather than deliberately asking such a question to humiliate him.

"My father once made a mistake. He brought me here to live, and I no longer have an imperial identity." Although Kro did not explain it in detail, Lu Xiao understood it. After all, a place like a dungeon is not difficult to understand just from the literal meaning.

I think most of the people living here have committed crimes.

The empire did not conduct a strict investigation, probably because they thought that these people who lived underground and had no identity could not cause any trouble, so they left them alone.

But in fact, such places are hotbeds of crime and nutrients for the growth of evil.

"Is there no possibility of leaving here?"

"People who have lost their identities will be expelled and completely lose their place to stay if they return to the upper world, so it's impossible." Having said that, Kro seemed not to want these things to affect Lu Xiao's mood, and pulled the corner of his lip, "In fact, we have a lot of good food here, I wonder if you will like it. Of course, if you think it's abrupt..."

"No, please let me see the underground food you mentioned. Thank you."

"No, you're welcome." Seeing Lu Xiao smile, Kro's face turned red. He had never realized that his face could be so hot. In order not to disgust Lu Xiao, Kro pretended to be calm and said, "Please, please follow me."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked in front, but he moved his hands and feet unconsciously.

Lu Xiao noticed this scene, surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she slightly curled the corners of her lips.

He didn't say a word to remind her, as he felt that if he did, Kro would probably be even more at a loss.

Kro was obviously very familiar with this place. He took Lu Xiao and turned left and right until they came out of an iron gate. Then Lu Xiao's vision broadened.

A large market built in a cave appeared before her.

It was a bit like the place where the dwarves she had seen on TV lived.

Even the caves are well maintained.

The bustling sounds of hawkers can be heard constantly. Although it is underground, it makes people feel lively.

This is completely different from what Lu Xiao thought.

There are even flower boats floating on the underground river, with people on the boats soliciting business.

Kro noticed that Lu Xiao's pace had slowed down, and he was no longer in a hurry to move forward. Instead, he looked back at Lu Xiao from time to time to confirm whether she had caught up with him.

“This place is not what I expected.”

When Lu Xiao said this, there was a slight smile on her lips.

Crowe seemed to understand what she meant without any instruction: "Everyone is used to living here."

The market was full of males, but these males were in exceptionally good condition, and you could not see suppressed emotions on their faces. They could laugh, or they could frown and curse.

Looks very alive.

No one paid too much attention to her. Even though she attracted a lot of attention when she first appeared here, everyone soon returned to normal and went about their own business.

This feeling made her feel that she was not that important anymore!
The smile on her lips deepened, and she felt that her decision might be the right one.

"Let's go. I want to try the delicious food you mentioned more and more."

Lu Xiao, who was not very curious about this market at first, now really wanted to take a look.

Crowe discovered that the little female in front of him seemed more relaxed.

How could there be such a female in this world, alone in a strange place, where danger could happen at any time, but she can still smile so beautifully and happily.

Is she really not afraid?
