Chapter 1616 A Ma.s.sive City For Navigation

Asking around, it didn't take him long for Lin Mu to find a place that sold maps. With a city as ma.s.sive as this, it was necessary for there to be maps for it.

Even for the citizens of this city, it wasn't unusual for them to get lost if they went to areas they had not been too. It was even said that there were people who had not seen the entire Capital city in their lifespan.

And thus, there was no lack of shops that sold such maps.

"Welcome Customer, what would you like?" The shopkeeper asked eagerly.

Lin Mu looked around and found the shop to be rather good looking. It was well maintained and there were all kinds of goods such as various bags, tents, powders of different uses as well as maps.

It was evident that this was a shop that sold travel supplies.

"I'd like a map." Lin Mu replied.

"What kind of map would you like customer? We have maps for the capital city, as well as detailed maps for each district of the city. Or if you wish for other maps, we also have maps for the different regions of the Dao Wind Empire." The shopkeeper replied.

"I'd like a detailed map of the city." Lin Mu answered.

"Ah, very well." The Shopkeeper said before taking out three items.

The first was a set of scrolls, the second was a jade slip and the third was a small circular mirror.

"I have the map in three versions, ranging from cheap to expensive. The first is the most basic scroll maps. Since the city is too big, you'll have to buy multiple scrolls. The cost for this is four low grade immortal stones.

The second is the jade slip, which has the entire map within it. You can use it just like any other jade slip used to store information. The cost for it is twenty low grade immortal stones.

Then we have the Map mirror which can not only function as a map, but will also show your position as you move along with a location search function. It will help you never get lost in the Capital City. The Map Mirror costs about two mid grade immortal stones." The Shopkeeper explained.

"I'll take the map mirror then." It didn't take long for Lin Mu to make a decision.

After all, the price was nothing to him and the convenience provided by the Map Mirror was going to be a big help.

"An excellent choice! This map mirror is our best seller too." The Shopkeeper said with a smile. "I must say, sir customer made a good decision. All those that buy the basic scroll maps and jade slip come back to buy the Map Mirror.

Even the people with good sense of direction get lost in our city. Not to mention with how many locations there are in our capital, it gets tough to find them all. The Map Mirror will help in all that." He explained.

"I see… I'll take it then." Lin Mu said before handing over the mid grade immortal stones to the man.

"Would you like anything else, customer?" The shopkeeper tried to get Lin Mu to buy more.

Lin Mu furrowed his brows and thought over it for a bit before having an idea.

"This map mirror… is there a version of it that works for the entire Long Continent?" Lin Mu inquired.

"Ah! Unfortunately that is not possible. The Map Mirror is something that was especially developed for the Capital city. It relies on the arrays of the city to work and as such cannot work elsewhere." The shopkeeper replied.

"That's a shame." Lin Mu said, but could understand the reasoning behind it.

"But! I can still offer you a jade slip map for the entire Dao Wind Empire." The Shopkeeper offered.

"Hmm… I'll take that then." Lin Mu decided to get it, just in case. "How much is it?"

"Not much, just 10 mid Grade Immortal stones." The shopkeeper said with a wide smile.

Lin Mu raised a brow hearing that price as it was higher than the Map Mirror which was technically an Immortal tool. The shopkeeper seemed to have understood Lin Mu's thoughts and spoke again.

"I a.s.sure you, it is the best map you can get of the empire. The cost is reasonable for the area that it covers." The shopkeeper clarified.

"Alright, I'll take that too." Lin Mu responded much to the Shopkeepers joy.

"GREAT!" The man very eagerly took Lin Mu's immortal stones and handed over the Jade slip.

But the man was not done yet.

"May I ask if sir is taking part in the Tournament of the Four Guardian beasts?" the Shopkeeper inquired.

"I am." Lin Mu didn't see any reason to hide it since it was something that could be easily guessed.

"Then since sir has bought so much form me, I'll offer sir a bit of interesting information." The shopkeeper offered.

"Oh? What kind of information?" Lin Mu questioned.

"The shopkeeper edged closer and said in a low voice.

"I think sir will be interested in a few banquets that will be held in the coming days. These are being held by the n.o.bles as well as the rich influential people of the capital city." The shopkeep answered.

"What do the banquets have to do with me though?" Lin Mu asked in doubt.

"The banquets are merely a front. In reality, these are intended to be an opportunity for the contestants to meet up as well as the n.o.bles to scout out some black horses before hand. If one is lucky, they might even get sponsored by the banquet organizers." The shopkeeper replied.

Next he took out a little sheet of paper and slid it to Lin Mu slyly.

"Sir customer will certainly benefit from attending a couple." The Shopkeeper said. "Plus I've heard they'll have some great beauties there too." He whispered.

Lin Mu didn't reply to the man after that and simply took the sheet and left.
