Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

"I want to find out where the shops selling Lancaster-related magic potions are located. I inquired previously in Titan Town, and they said I needed to come to Chaoming Town to search... Oh!"

Just as he was about to say something else, the sight at the source of the voice made him instinctively step back two paces, nearly tumbling to the ground:

"Rat, rat-people! Why are there rat-people here!"

Seeing the merchant scared half to death, the player wearing the rat skin suit revealed an embarrassed expression.

"Hey, bro, take a closer look. I'm not some rat-person. If a real rat dared to run into Chaoming Town, they'd either get hacked to death, starve to death, or at the very least, be 'electrocuted snip snip'!

Where would you find one wandering around town like me, chilling? Don't worry, I'm human."

Upon hearing the voice from within the hood, Lawrence finally calmed the nervousness in his heart and realized that the speaker was actually a person wearing a hood, and he said with a wry smile:

"Big brother, don't scare people like that! The rat-people tribe loves to kill, and they carry a load of diseases on them. Without proper handling, they can even start a small scale plague in a place.

You jumping out like that could really scare people away!"

"Ah, my bad... sorry about that! Our organization usually operates like this, always wearing a rat skin suit when traveling outside, since we deal in information and can't reveal our true faces directly."

Hearing this strange person speaking, Lawrence curiously asked:

"Then can you help me find where I can buy the potions I need? And how shall I address you, mysterious information merchant?"

"I am from the information organization 'Rat's Eye'. Externally, our members have a uniform moniker, 'OverflowingFish.' You can call me 'OverflowingFish144.'

The player said with a smile, "Our organization just started today. For such minor information, I won't charge you. I'll lead you there directly!

Of course, if you need it, I can even recommend where the town's food street is, but... you'll have to treat me to a meal."

Actually, 'OverflowingFish144' didn't have the relevant information, but that didn't stop other players in 'Rat's Eye' from getting to work.

Those messages flowing into 'Rat's Eye' allowed him to directly access resources like the map of Chaoming Town for free.

Scoring a free meal with free resources and potentially fleecing this merchant for some money seemed like a good deal all around.

The smile on Lawrence's face grew even brighter; he hailed from a place famed for being able to eat anything, a glutton's domain, and he couldn't possibly refuse 'OverflowingFish144's offer.

[Location: Chaoming Town - Lancaster Exclusive Store]

"This Body Magic Potion can actually enhance attributes?!"

"Damn, this thing that looks like a pill can temporarily boost agility by 20%? Buy, buy, buy!"

"Buy what? Can you afford it?"

"Make money, make money, make money, take on quests, take on quests, take on quests, my big sword is already thirsting for battle!"

"Thirsting for what? You're only good for hunting deer outside, what else could you handle?"

"Looking down on me, huh! I'm going to sign up for a month of work in the industrial district right now. Just watch, when I come out, I'll be armed with the best gear and go on a killing spree!"

"Wake up, by the time you go on a killing spree, the guy next door named 'God of Wealth Arrives' has already bought out all the Crossbow Carriages for hunting Moon Howling Lions!"

At that moment, standing in the shop, Lawrence felt a bit of panic, as the place was just too crowded.

Based on his usual experience, he feared that by the time he went to stock up, the related products would have already sold out, just like the magic potions the Lancaster Chamber of Commerce previously sold in the Royal Capital.

Seeming to sense his concern, 'OverflowingFish144' beside him said with a light laugh:

"Don't worry, the Undead gathered here are relatively low-level Undead.

For magic potions like these, even the old players who have come through from the early test period wouldn't find it easy to gather them.

What you need to worry about is not if there are goods to buy, but whether your wallet can withstand the spending."

Lawrence nodded. If that was the case, then all the better.

As expected, when his turn came, he managed to empty most of his Demon Crystal coins by successfully purchasing a batch of Lancaster's specialty potions.

Nonetheless, this kind of lavish spending with a clear view of the investment return, while painful, was a source of acute joy.

So much so that a group of players were howling in the area.

"What in the world is going on? Why are even NPCs competing with us for items now!"

They had once thought that since the game set up quests, it would be solely the players completing those tasks.

But 'The Door to the Underworld' was not like those flashy cheap virtual games. Not only was the competition fierce among the players themselves to the point that many couldn't keep up, but occasionally, the original inhabitants would also compete for their quests.

Good grief, now these fellows weren't just competing for quests; they were also scrambling to buy up their goods.

Could it be that next time even the limited outfits provided for the players would become competition?
