Chapter 486 Insignia Guest

Under the scrutiny of the slum residents' gazes, Fang Li's entire group arrived at the deepest part.

Here, there was a building.

It was a bungalow.

Although it was a bungalow, its size rivaled that of a collective housing unit, leaning against tall city walls, its walls covered in moss and vines, giving it the appearance of a warehouse.

Looking at the bungalow, Subaru Natsuki, still hugging his arms, nodded thoughtfully.

"Is this the Stolen Goods Warehouse?"

The so-called Stolen Goods Warehouse referred to a place where stolen goods were sold.

In the slums, thieves and similar criminals were in abundance.

Felt, also a thief, hailed from the slums.

For thieves like Felt, the Stolen Goods Warehouse was of great importance.

After all, all the stolen goods they obtained had to be sold discreetly. If they were haphazardly taken outside to sell, it would only be a matter of time before they got caught.

Therefore, there needed to be special places to dispose of stolen goods to avoid getting caught and facing the consequences.

The Stolen Goods Warehouse was one such place, specifically for hiding and selling stolen goods obtained by thieves.

Since Felt was a thief from here, she was most likely here.

This wasn't because of reliable information but because Fang Li remembered the original plot and directly came here after learning about the location of the slums and the Stolen Goods Warehouse.

"Is that girl named Felt here?"

Emilia Lia's expression had also become serious at some point, as if she intended to reprimand a mischievous child, and she was ready to enter.

However, before that, Fang Li suddenly reached out, grabbing Emilia Lia's shoulder.

Emilia Lia was slightly startled and turned her head to look at Fang Li.

However, Fang Li didn't look at Emilia Lia but directly at the Stolen Goods Warehouse in front, speaking indifferently.

"No need to go in. Someone is coming out."

Almost the moment Fang Li's words fell, the door of the Stolen Goods Warehouse suddenly opened.

"Oh!"

Subaru Natsuki suddenly exclaimed.

You can't blame him for this; even Emilia looked in the direction of the Stolen Goods Warehouse with a hint of surprise on her face.

Because, behind the door of the Stolen Goods Warehouse, a huge figure emerged.

It was an old bald man with a dirty and tattered attire, sporting an obviously well-exercised huge physique.

The old man was at least two meters tall, taller than the top of the Stolen Goods Warehouse's door, so he had to deliberately lower his head to come out.

Moreover, the old man's palm was almost as large as a person's head.

Seeing such a giant, it was no wonder Subaru Natsuki suddenly exclaimed.

Floating by Emilia's side, Pack glanced at the old man and said, "Looks like he's from the Giant Race."

"Does this world even have a Giant Race?" Subaru Natsuki's eyes twitched slightly, feeling conflicted. "Could it be that you need at least this kind of physique to go out on adventures and meet beautiful girls?"

The one who answered Subaru Natsuki's question wasn't Fang Li or Emilia Lia, but the old man from the Giant Race.

"I don't know about the current trends outside, but unfortunately, I'm afraid I won't be able to meet the beautiful girl you mentioned even until I die."

The old man said with a voice so loud it could shake even the air, shortly afterward squinting his eyes and scanning Fang Li, Emilia Lia, and Subaru Natsuki in succession, finally stopping at Fang Li's body.

"Looking very reliable and frightening in those peculiar clothes, Big Brother," The old man said to Fang Li with a certain tone. "You must be the person Felt mentioned who needs to trade, right?"

Hearing this, Fang Li hadn't had a chance to respond yet when Subaru Natsuki's mouth twitched as he said, "Why can't I be that very reliable and frightening Big Brother? Aren't we all wearing peculiar clothes?"

"You?" The old man glanced at Subaru Natsuki with some disdain. "It's obvious you've never been in any significant situations. Someone like you, how could you possibly snatch anything from Felt's hands?"

"...Although you're right, I indeed have no way to snatch anything from Felt's hands, but if I obediently admit it now, it would be a disgrace to all the transmigrators," Subaru Natsuki pointed at the old man, shouting loudly, "Even if I look like this, I'm still the protagonist summoned to Another World. Look at this body I've been training every day; I can lift 70 kilograms!"

"70 kilograms?" The old man burst into loud laughter.

"You dare to bring up such a level of strength?" With that statement, the old man extended his hand, grabbing a thick wooden stick beside him and exerting force.

"Bang—!"

Amidst the loud sound of breaking, the thick wooden stick was directly shattered into two pieces, splintering into numerous wooden fragments.

Seeing this, Subaru Natsuki knelt down on the ground with fluid and graceful movements.

"Alright, you're amazing. I'm just an ordinary transmigrator; I can't compare to the Giant Race!"

Seeing Subaru Natsuki kneeling like this, Fang Li and Pack were simultaneously speechless, even Emilia Lia didn't know what to say.

Only the old man from the Giant Race, as if doing something mundane, brushed off the splinters from his hand and said to everyone, "Anyway, from now on, aside from the person Felt mentioned, no one else can enter."

"Eh?" Emilia Lia quickly asked, "Why?"

"Why ask why?" The old man said naturally, "With so many of you going in together, who knows if you plan to just forcefully seize things?"

Is this why Felt chose to meet everyone at the Stolen Goods Warehouse? After all, there's also a member of the Giant Race here who can provide combat support.

"So, you and you, as well as that Spirit over there, can't go in." The old man pointed at Emilia Lia, Subaru Natsuki, and Pack, then pointed to Fang Li, saying, "Only you can go in."

"This..." Emilia Lia suddenly didn't know what to do.

Thus, Emilia Lia could only plead, "Please let me go in too; I also have important matters to resolve, please."

"No." The old man of the Giant Race said directly, "There are other guests inside who were originally planning to buy your insignia, so I can't let you in."

When these words came from the old man of the Giant Race, Fang Li suddenly raised his head.

In his eyes, a glint of ice blue suddenly flashed.

Then, something unexpected happened.

"Boom—!"

Amidst an explosion-like sound, the wall next to the gate of the Stolen Goods Warehouse suddenly shattered and collapsed.
