“Four thousand Doomsday Coins—if there’s anything higher, I’ll give up. It’s just a Level 10 suit of weapons after all; anything over four thousand would be a bit unworthy!” A seductive woman’s voice rang out through the radio. This voice seemed imbued with a magical power that made listeners itch inside, making them desperately want to see the woman speaking;

As her voice emerged, a brief silence fell over the radio. After a moment, an elderly voice sounded: “Ahem, since the Queen of Sin has spoken, these gloves are worth no more than four thousand Doomsday Coins. The Sola family is out of the bidding!”

“The Cassia Family is out of the bidding!”

“The Storm Legion is out of the bidding!”

Song Jian was surprised. It seemed that this so-called Queen of Sin must have unimaginable power; otherwise, she wouldn’t have made so many people back off;

However, four thousand Doomsday Coins already exceeded Song Jian’s psychological expectations, and he wouldn’t feel discontent. Moreover, the other people’s bids on the radio had already become cautious at 3,800 Doomsday Coins.

“Alright then, I will sell these gloves to you.” Song Jian couldn’t help but speak politely;

“Good, I’ll be at the manor outside the city for the next few days. You just need to send them to ***, and that will be fine.”

“Wait, uh, well, 1 don’t have any stamps right now. I don’t know if you can send me a stamp first. Of course, the cost can be deducted from the sale price…” Song Jian said sheepishly;

“It seems like a little friend who’s new to the game got lucky and dropped these gloves. Congratulations! Hehe, you just need to upgrade your mailbox to Level 3, and you can send mail without stamps. If you’re short on Doomsday Coins, I can send you the payment first,” said the Queen of Sin with a giggle;

“This guy, does she have a naturally enchanting voice? 1 can’t take it;” Hearing her laughter, Song Jian felt a surge of impulse from the bottom of his heart and couldn’t help but change color;

“You, aren’t you afraid I’ll take your money and not send the item?” Song Jian suddenly asked, as if compelled;

The radio fell silent, and only the faint sound of electrical noise could be heard. After a long while, the Queen of Sin spoke leisurely: “Nobody in this world would dare take my money and not give me anything. 1 am the Queen of Sin, after all!”

“Queen of Sin? Could it be that the Queen of Sin is the de facto ruler of the City of Sin?” Song Jian had a flash of insight and suddenly thought of Count Qian Dahai, who lived in the inner city of the City of Sin;

Before long, Song Jian received a system notification about new mail!

He went to the mailbox, opened it, and saw four thousand Doomsday Coins exactly, not a single coin less. After Song Jian withdrew the coins, the four thousand gold coins were automatically divided into three portions, leaving only a little over 1,300 gold coins in his inventory;

He opened his mailbox settings and saw that it required 300 Doomsday Coins to upgrade to a Level 2 mailbox. Song Jian clicked to upgrade directly, and the ordinary mailbox outside the courtyard immediately shone with a dazzling light;

System: Your mailbox has been upgraded to Level 2, allowing you to retain 10 more mail messages;

Upgrading to a Level 3 mailbox required 500 gold coins. The over 1,000 gold coins he had just acquired were quickly reduced to 500;

System: Your mailbox has been upgraded to Level 3, allowing you to retain an additional 10 mail messages; you can also send mail without stamps, with a daily limit of 3 times;

After Song Jian sent the gloves, he felt a sudden sense of relief. The pressure from the Queen of Sin was simply too great. In Doomsday, someone who could control an entire city had more power than a mayor, perhaps even a governor, in the real world;

“I still have 500 Doomsday Coins, which isn’t too bad. Now, I have at least 3,500-3,600 Doomsday Coins to spend. I should be able to buy one or two good things!” Song Jian became excited again at the thought;

The place where the shimmering rainbow light shone was far from Song Jian’s manor. If it weren’t for the night when the colorful light seemed to illuminate the sky like a searchlight, Song Jian might not have noticed its existence;

Standing at the highest point of Manor Castle and looking towards the colorful light, the straight-line distance was at least 50 or 60 kilometers, reaching deep into the city. The level of the monsters there was likely over Level 10, and the exact location was not yet clear;

“It should be near Weihu Park.” Song Jian opened the map and secretly estimated the location.

Thinking of this, Song Jian looked around, gritted his teeth, morphed into a dark cloud, and flew toward Weihu Park. It was nighttime, so riding a motorcycle would probably be faster, but it would also make too much noise and attract many monsters at night. If he rode a motorcycle, he wouldn’t make it a few kilometers before being surrounded by monsters, and he wouldn’t stand a chance of entering the Doomsday supermarket—not to mention keeping his life intact;

Transforming into a dark cloud and hovering in the air as he slowly flew toward Weihu Park, Song Jian was cautious all the way, fearing another encounter with the bat-winged zombies he had seen the night before. The thought of that swarm of hundreds of Level 10 Elite Boss bat-winged zombies was haunting. If he encountered them in the air, there would be no chance of survival;

Fortunately, Song Jian didn’t encounter any flying monsters along the way. After an hour and a half, he arrived at Weihu Park without any incidents;

At this time, a building covering five to six hundred square meters appeared out of nowhere on a vacant lot next to Weihu Park. The building looked and felt out of place with its surroundings;

Looking down at the building emitting colorful light below, Song Jian’s brow furrowed. This building looked much smaller than the three-story Doomsday supermarket;

“Is this… the Doomsday Blacksmith Shop?” Song Jian looked at the huge characters on the building and couldn''t help but be dumbfounded. How could there be such a building?

Descending from the sky, Song Jian found that there were already five or six people standing at the entrance of the Doomsday Blacksmith Shop. All of them were dressed in green or blue quality gear, and each person’s level was above Level 7. It seemed that anyone who could come to Weihu Park at night was already among the elite players in this city ;?>

Seeing Song Jian descend from the sky, the several players surrounding the entrance of the blacksmith shop showed curious expressions, looking Song Jian up and down. None of them, however, approached him or tried to strike up a conversation. The atmosphere in front of the blacksmith shop was somewhat eerie;

*Ding Ding Ding-*

From within the Doomsday Blacksmith Shop came the sound of metal clashing, as if someone was forging something;

Song Jian looked around and was about to push open the door of the blacksmith shop when he noticed that the surrounding players were giving him a mocking smile. He hesitated and stepped back, choosing to wait patiently like the other players outside the door;

After a long while, the clanging of metal from inside the blacksmith’s shop ceased. The door swung open, and a muscular dwarf, his beard full of iron filings, emerged from inside;
