Chapter 573 Chapter 573 Plunder
Ten more minutes and the two young travelers arrived at the city gates of Navi.
There was a mass of people going inside and out of the place and one could easily see the more prosperous community in comparison to the villages of Ascot and Hankala.
The population of Navi City alone reached an outstanding number of more than seven hundred thousand people.
It did not need telling that Han Chai was absolutely stunned the moment she saw this much congregation of souls in one setting.
"I'm afraid, brother." Han Chai whispered while holding tightly on the arms of our bored gamer.
She was not used to seeing this many people at once but more than that, the majority of the citizens in place wore weird clothes in the eyes of our very own Han Chai.
While both she and her brother used animal skin for shirts and apparel but these people donned on majestic robes in vivid colors. The difference in style was truly unmistakable.
"Don't be, Chai'er. You have nothing to fear since your big brother is here." Our bored gamer assured with a smile and this was enough to calm Han Chai's turbid feelings down.
Thus, the two followed the flow of souls unto the huge territory of Navi.
"One silver coin each in order to enter the city of Navi." A gate guard said towards Clark and his sister. This was the entrance fee of course which brought loads of income to the city.
One should know that the city of Navi was the only metropolis in a hundred mile radius around these plains. The market in this kind of environment was especially significant to say the least.

These were well made village clothes that were freshly made out of animal skin and game. This was the reason why Clark spent 3 days in order to prepare for this trip.
Chief Yao Chen knew that there was an entrance fee to the city.
It did not need telling that the chief of Ascot Village also did not have any silver coin in his possession since there was really no use for that at all deep in the mountainous domains of their village.
"You may pass. But if i see you two begging on the streets later on, i will personally kick both your asses out of this city!" The gate guard warned and checked on the next customer in line.
"..." Clark just ignored the soldier. With his sister beside him, it was really unwise to start any conflict at this moment. And so the two moved on to see a whole new world deeper into the city.
"Wow! Everything is so big and tall, brother!"
"And the people! There's so many of them!" Han Chai exclaimed when she realized that there was only a drop at the gates. The flood of people was right here in the open.
"You'll get used to seeing them, Chai'er."
"Now let's go this way." Our bored gamer said with a smile. He reached for his sister's hand and led her towards the thickest crowds in the distance.
"But aren't there too many people in that way, brother?" Han Chai asked in a trembling voice.
"Hehehe. That's okay, Chai'er. Just the two of us won't make any difference in this case." Clark chuckled and began his walk towards what seemed to be the central marketplace of the city.
The hustle was slow but steady. Luckily for our bored gamer, he got much harvest in the end.
'SIGH!'
'I can't believe that I got to use my pickpocketing skills in this realm.'
'Beggars can't be choosers after all.' Our avid gamer could not help but shake his head in the aftermath.
He targeted only the rich looking individuals so that he could feel less guilty about his deeds. In the end, Clark's pockets got heavier and heavier along with time.
The stolen money was indeed a hefty one in just a span of half an hour.
'Track the people that I've stolen money from, Nancy.'
'I'll be returning this soon enough once I level up my cultivation base in time.' Clark did not forget to say this command to his loyal system.
"Affirmative, host." Nancy replied promptly. After that, our bored gamer hid in a discreet corner and transferred his loot unto his native backpack.
He left the heaviest bag of coins and emptied the contents into his pockets.
It did not need saying that Clark did all these in secret while his sister Han Chai was looking somewhere else entirely.
"Look at that girl's dress, Chai'er. Do you also want to have a dress like that?" Our bored gamer asked and this smart subtlety was enough to divert Han Chai's attention away from him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Yes. She looks so pretty and beautiful, brother!" Han Chai agreed and there was a dreamy look in his eyes at this moment.
"Why don't we get something like that also?" Our bored gamer suggested after his bad deeds of transferring the goods were all done and over with.
"But we don't have any money, brother." Han Chai replied sadly. A gentle sigh could be heard under her breath thereafter.
"We don't? I guess we shall find out soon enough once we try on some new garments for my one and only sis." Clark said and led his sister unto another direction in the city.
This district was much richer than the one they went to before and the pair of siblings got the interest and ridicule of the wealthy.
Most of the people openly evaded them as if they were carrying deadly viruses on their bodies. Our good gamer could only shrug at the obvious bias of these citizens.
In time, Clark and Han Chai arrived at the first clothing store they could find. There were robes inside and colorful dresses of lavish styles and adornment.
Both went in and what greeted them was a toxic remark of disfavor.
"What are you two doing here?! GET OUT!"
"We don't accept mountain worms in our store!" The owner of the establishment roared in disgust.
In response, our bored gamer opened his palms and dropped countless gold on his hands. He did not stop until it was already brimming in sparking yellow.
"Well I guess that you missed out on a big customer today. Fine with us." Clark said and without ado, went out of the store at once.
"WAIT! Young Master! Please! I mistook you for somebody else!" The store owner shouted but the 2 young teens were already gone before his eyes.
