Huayang Mall, one of the relatively larger malls in Bailian City.
Gu Xi grew up in Bailian City and had been here a few times. However, back when he was just a student, he only dared to circle the outer zone, never venturing into the inner zone.
But Gu Xi had heard that inside Huayang Mall, there were merchants from several brother cities, and they offered specialties not found in Bailian City.
Moreover, several major guilds from Bailian City had fixed shops in Huayang Mall, selling some of their guild’s specialties.
Many students who haven’t graduated yet would come here to see if there were any materials suitable for their growth.
Previously, when Gu Xi came here, he couldn’t afford anything.
But that’s no longer the case now.
Gu Xi had enough money in hand, and now he intended to buy whatever caught his eye.
After jumping off the carriage, Gu Xi turned to the Fierce Weasel and said, "I’ll go back on my own, you can head back first."
The Fierce Weasel didn’t ask much, simply agreed.
After the Fierce Weasel left, Gu Xi turned and entered Huayang Mall.
Inside Huayang Mall, the sunlight obviously became dimmer, and there were some dark red patterns on the ground, with a fishy aroma lingering as you passed by.
Nevertheless, Gu Xi skillfully bypassed these weird things and arrived at a shop where the lights were flickering.
The store sold eerie items, and standing at the entrance were two paper-mâché women.
Seeing Gu Xi approach, the two jumped out proactively, trying to hold Gu Xi’s hand.
But Gu Xi merely stepped forward and pushed the two paper-mâché women aside.
"Big Head Li, are you there?"
With Gu Xi’s call, a sleazy-looking man walked out from the shop.
He wore an ordinary, yellowed tank top and had hair as messy as a bird’s nest, walking out as he stretched with squinted eyes.
Upon seeing Gu Xi, his eyes widened.
"So it’s you, haven’t you graduated?
I had said before, once you graduate, no more credit here."
"I know, Big Head Li, I’m not here for credit this time, I’m here to buy something, only you have what I want."
Hearing this, Big Head Li squinted his eyes.
"You really know me. As expected from a student of mine, rest assured, now that you’ve graduated, some of these things can be sold to you. I’ve got top-notch potions here.
They’re for Death Knights, guaranteed to make you as vigorous as a dragon."
"Wait, Big Head Li, that’s not what I’m here for."
Gu Xi hurriedly stopped Big Head Li from continuing, "I’m a Mage who practices the Fitness Skill, I don’t need such things."
"Do you think I’ll believe that?"
Big Head Li gave Gu Xi a look, allowing him to understand it himself.
Gu Xi rolled his eyes, wanting to explain that he didn’t have that kind of intention.
But ultimately, Gu Xi didn’t refuse the potions and such that Big Head Li sent over, because some of them were Magic Potions.
Besides, refusing a gift from Big Head Li would be embarrassing.
After accepting the items from Big Head Li, Gu Xi explained his intention.
"Big Head Li, I remember the class-skipping gear you gave me earlier, do you still have it?"
"Of course, I have it, but do you still want it?"
Big Head Li asked somewhat unable to handle it, "Those are just for fooling teachers, they’re not useful in the game."
"It’s fine, I just need one of the items in it, give me a few more."
"Alright then, I really don’t get your ideas."
Big Head Li shook his head but still packed the items Gu Xi wanted.
"Here you go, it’s all here, a total of 339 yuan; you can pay using gold or negative energy, I accept both."
Being familiar with Big Head Li, Gu Xi didn’t look further and directly handed over the negative energy to him.
After leaving the shop, Gu Xi realized that all the items Big Head Li provided were high-quality.
[Class Skipping Divine Artifact: Use as instructed, it can make you look sick or arrange for an unnoticed substitute to take your place.]
[Note: No matter what kind of Class Skipping Divine Artifact, it can’t affect the sight of game characters, so please do not use this in-game.]
Gu Xi came over to buy such an item primarily to deal with Fang Kang.
After all, the location was chosen by Fang Kang.
Moreover, it was a place unfamiliar to Gu Xi, so he needed to consider what he might encounter.
In this set of Class Skipping Divine Artifacts, two items were particularly useful to Gu Xi’s situation.
Gu Xi specifically came over this time just to find a set of Class Skipping Divine Artifacts to take back.
With preparations made, Gu Xi finally felt half at ease.
As for luggage and such.
Gu Xi never even considered bringing any.
In Gu Xi’s view, with Death City at his back, he could access any items and equipment he desired at any time—what need was there for luggage?
He’s a man who carries the city on his back.
After leaving Big Head Li’s store, Gu Xi didn’t head directly to the teleportation point; instead, he wandered through Huayang Mall, storming through shops he had visited before but never dared enter.
Although Gu Xi went in empty-handed and came out empty-handed.
On the surface, it looked like he didn’t buy anything.
But Gu Xi held a satisfied expression on his face.
Walking around like this gave Gu Xi a sense that he had grown up.
After all, places he couldn’t go during school days, he could now visit, which served as proof.
With this mentality, Gu Xi’s expression grew increasingly confident.
Now, there was no sign of a rookie player in him, and whoever saw Gu Xi would think he was quite an expert.
And Gu Xi, maintaining a natural demeanor, soon exited the most famous Huayang Field in Huayang Mall, taking the mall bus to the nearest teleportation point.
Unlike the Guild’s Teleportation Plaza.
To ensure that all players could easily use it, Bailian City’s teleportation points didn’t cluster all the teleportation gates in one place.
Instead, they’re spread out like street-side public restrooms, with one every couple of streets.
Each location had only two teleportation gates, and someone would usually come by daily to ensure they operated normally and safely.
As for other matters, they didn’t concern themselves with them.
No matter where those who used the teleportation gates went or whether they could return, it was all left to them to decide.
