I am surrounded by beauties in the Gods and Demons Game Center

When Ban Chao led his army to the Crescent Fort, they were shocked by the scene before them - the Crescent Fort had changed its owner! The flag flying on the top of the city was no longer the familiar flag, but the flag of the Western Army of the Empire.

Ban Chao sighed when he saw this situation. He had actually expected this to happen, and this march was more of a gamble.

Ban Chao knew very well that, let alone they had captured the Desert Scimitar now, even if they took control of the Neon Empire in the future, they would still be no match for the Northern Empire. Therefore, even if Zhang Chao was capable of capturing Crescent Fort now, he would not take action to avoid retaliation from the Northern Empire.

The defenders of Crescent Fort couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief as they watched Ban Chao's army retreat like a tide.

After taking over the Desert Scimitar, Zhang Wei convened a high-level meeting to discuss future strategic policies. Just as Ban Chao thought, Zhang Wei was no match for the Northern Empire at the moment. It was also for this reason that the Northern Empire acquiesced to Zhang Wei's military action to capture the Desert Scimitar. After all, it didn't matter who worked for them to make money.

Therefore, the participants suggested that since the current situation in this world cannot be broken, it would be better to consider doing something in the Second World first. If the Second World can be swallowed up, then the Northern Empire may not be a concern at all. Even if it cannot be swallowed up, if a piece of territory can be established in the Second World, then at least a way out will be left for oneself.

Zhang Wei thought what everyone said made sense, and he went to see the reincarnation goddess after the meeting. The reincarnation goddess agreed with Zhang Wei's plan to go to the second world to cause trouble.

The reincarnated goddess said frankly that the second world would have been opened sooner or later, but now that the combat system has collapsed, it doesn't matter whether it is opened sooner or later, not to mention that Zhang Wei had already invaded the second world.

Andaman Port

After a simple replenishment, Zhang Wei's ship prepared to head southeast to Port Hatteras. The reason for going there was that Zhang Wei heard in Port Andaman that an ancient tomb seemed to have been dug out there, and it seemed that good things had been unearthed.

It takes twenty days to sail from Andaman Port to Hatteras Port. This time, Zhang Wei only brought one ship. The crew was mainly Helots among the Andaman people. No other followers were brought because Zhang Wei planned to escape alone if the situation went wrong. The more confidants he brought, the more trouble it would be.

Just as the ship was about to set sail, a monk ran to the side of the ship and shouted to Zhang Wei if they were going to Port Hatteras. Zhang Wei frowned, but still let the monk get on board. This time he was acting under the banner of a merchant, under the pretext of opening up shipping routes, but secretly, he actually wanted to spy on the situations of all parties, so there were also some guests on the ship, a small number of whom were free people, but most of them were actually helots.

Zhang Wei originally didn't want to bring the monk along, but the monk was shouting and yelling, completely lacking the dignity of a monk, which caused some free people on the deck to point and talk. Zhang Wei didn't want to arouse the free people's suspicion, so he had to compromise.

The monk came on board, thanked the master profusely, and then went to the bow to sit in meditation and chant. Zhang Wei saw that the monk would not be a problem, so he just followed him.

The voyage lasted twenty days, and the monk entered into a state of meditation at the bow of the ship for twenty days. At first, Zhang Wei was a little curious, but later he simply forgot about the monk.

After arriving at Port Hatteras, the port tax officer collected taxes and issued a temporary docking permit to Zhang Wei. Then he went to the next ship to collect taxes and issue permits.

Zhang Wei glanced at the ships coming and going in the port, wondering how many of them were also coming for the ancient tomb?

"Amitabha, Captain." The monk came quietly to Zhang Wei and spoke suddenly. Although it did not scare Zhang Wei, it still surprised Zhang Wei a little.

"You're not dead?" Zhang Wei said, and then he felt like he was talking nonsense.

The monk smiled slightly and did not feel that Zhang Wei had offended him. Instead, he asked Zhang Wei when his boat would leave.

The monk's question aroused Zhang Wei's vigilance. He wanted to know what the monk wanted to do?

Zhang Wei's frowning look made the monk react. The monk found that Zhang Wei had misunderstood his meaning and hurriedly explained. It turned out that he had asked the staff of Andaman Port and learned that Zhang Wei's ship was going to sail around to open up trade routes. Based on the concept of spreading Buddhism, he wanted to follow Zhang Wei's ship.

After listening to this, Zhang Wei's doubts were much reduced. This monk might have done this because of the guidance of a goddess (Bodhisattva) behind the scenes.

"About seven days later." Zhang Wei estimated the time it would take him to explore the ancient tomb and gave an approximate time.

"It's settled then, see you then." After saying this, the monk excitedly got off the boat.

Zhang Wei saw that the monk sometimes looked like a great monk who could enter a state of meditation for twenty days, and sometimes had no dignity at all, like a fake monk. Zhang Wei smiled and shook his head, handed over the shipping affairs to the first mate, and got off the boat.

Bars, especially those where all kinds of people gather, are often the best places to gather intelligence.

Zhang Wei sat down at the bar and ordered a beer from the bartender. When the bartender brought the beer and collected the money, Zhang Wei stuffed three gold coins into the bartender's hand.

The bartender took the money without even looking at it.

After a while, the bartender took dozens of copper coins, put them into a small bag in front of Zhang Wei, and handed it to Zhang Wei.

After finishing his drink, Zhang Wei took the small bag and left the first floor of the bar. He went up to the second floor from the iron stairs in the alley next to the bartender, and came to the dirty and shabby guest room he had temporarily opened. He sat on the worn leather sofa, put his legs on the broken wooden table next to him, and opened the small bag.

The money inside is not the point, but the three rolled-up pieces of paper are the point. The three gold coins are used to buy the three pieces of paper. As for the wine and dozens of copper coins, they are just gifts.

The first note contains the specific location of the ancient tomb.

The second note contained the name and contact information of the person who could take Zhang Wei into the ancient tomb.

The third note contained the time and location of a recent auction of ancient tomb items.

After Zhang Wei memorized the three notes, he burned them.

"The door is not locked. If you don't want to come in after standing there for so long, just leave quickly." Zhang Wei said to the outside.

The person outside pushed the door open with a smile, and what caught Zhang Wei's eyes was a beautiful woman wearing a black tube top and brown cropped pants. She had a pistol on her left waist and a rapier on her right waist. According to the division of the second world, only those abandoned by God would use firearms, and such people had another nickname - the cursed ones.

"How did you know I was outside?" the woman was very curious.

Zhang Wei's answer was the flame on his index finger the next second...
