Through his exposure to a number of mutants over the past few days, Raine has found that Avril's sensory abilities complement his very well.

Raine could detect who were mutants, and as soon as they became part of his crew, he could access information about them. But for mutants who were not part of his crew, Raine could not tell how strong or weak they were.

On the other hand, Avril had no access to detailed data. But she could get a general sense of their strength.

Shobe, Choper, Serena, including the strong men behind the big fat Blake, she could vaguely sense how strong they were.

The booths were like a supermarket with discounts, especially booth one and two, which were surrounded by a huge crowd of people. Whether they buy or not, many people were curious about these mutants.

Taking advantage of this, Avril and the others hurried to make for booth eight.

There weren't too many buyers in front of booth eight, a few people were picking out the slaves they liked. And there were a large number of slaves at least a few hundred on and off the stage.

Raine quickly began scanning.

"Avril, nothing here, go to the number seven!"

Obviously, Avril had not been more efficient than Raine, heard Raine out, gave up her search, and hurried to go the booth number seven.

Number six, number five, number four...

"No way, no slip through the net? I can't believe that they could have picked so clean!" Raine was also a little panicked, if he couldn't find anymore this time, he might just buy ordinary slaves.

On booth three, two or three hundred strong slaves sat numbly on the ground, eating buns and drinking water. Most of them didn't care about all the stares of the people around them. Their fate was already sealed anyway.

In an inconspicuous corner, two thin men sat upright. These two must be brothers, or even twins, aged 18 or 19, with ragged clothes and dirty faces. Their heads bowed, but a pair of eyes kept nervously looking at the buyers around them.

"Onebear, Twobear, any more buns?" Behind them, the head of a little "boy" poked out.

When the two young men heard the voice, they looked nervous, "Fancy, what are you doing out here? Go back now!"

The boy retracted his head in resignation, but not long afterward, the Onebear in front of him took half a steamed bun from the others and handed it over.

"Fancy, here you are," Onebear said in a low voice as he kept an eye on the crew and buyers around him.

The boy hurriedly grabbed the steamed bun and took a big bite.

It turned out a boy was hiding behind these people! His face was dirtier than the others and a mop of dirty hair covered his eyes.

It was at this point that the brothers noticed a few people headed for them. Everyone around the brothers couldn't help but get nervous and got closer to them in unison.

Avril had brows frowned uncomfortably as she stood in front of her target.

Both Avril and Raine had detected the situation, there were three mutants here! But the fact that they only saw two of them, and the two were as thin as bamboo sticks.

Captain, are you sure they are mutants? Do they are Bamboo worm mutants?

And, Avril sensed that these two men's powers seemed to be quite weak...

At this point, a crew member approached and looked greedily at Avril, Arsan, and Armin, who hadn't had a woman at sea for a long time, and who even would have felt beautiful at the sight of a sow, let alone Avril and the others.

"Three beauties, what's wrong? Are you guys short of money? Not go to the stage to pick instead stand here to choose these inferior products? If so, you can exchange them for something else. Don't worry, I will treat you girls well."

Avril wasn't angry this time, the crewman said that the slaves were inferior, so that meant that they hadn't realized that the two men in front of them were mutants!

Avril sneered, "I think you should save your breath. I'm just here to buy a few hard laborers, as long as they're cheap."

"How much for these two?"

The crewman had an obscene mouth, but the boss was sitting right under booth four. So he, a small crewman, didn't dare to mess around after all.

When it came to money, the boss was just and stern.

"You want to buy them? Twenty pearls for this kind of goods."

"Twenty pearls for such a thin one?" Arsan said.

The crewman sneered, he had a bad attitude after his design failed.

"What's wrong with being thin? The point is that he's young, he can work as soon as he's fed, and he can work from his teens to his forties. Do you want a bargain for that price? Don't talk nonsense, we don't haggle at the Black Hell Mercantile, don't you know the rules?"

Arsan came over and asked in a low voice, "Sister Avril, are you sure you're not mistaken? Are you sure it's those two?"

"You bet! The Captain and I are sure, except that we found three and now there is one less. The one that's missing, neither the Captain nor I can sense accurately, so I don't know if our senses are wrong." Avril Novel said.

Armin had no part in the discussion, she was now standing in front of Onebear and twobear, both of whom had been tense and straight-backed since a while ago, quite unlike the other slaves who were sitting weakly, and the expressions of the people around them looked a little unnatural.

She frowned, then came around to one side and poked her head behind them.

As Armin stretched her neck, a bunch of slaves were more nervous.

The hem of Onebear and Twobear's tattered clothes trailed on the floor, looking like bulging... Armin frowned and tried to step between the two of them, but the two men wiggled hard and just wouldn't let her.

"Eh? What are you guys hiding?" Armin looked at the two teenagers critically.

The brothers wanted to kick this woman in the face right now, why was this woman so curious? No one else would pay attention here, she was the only one who wanted to check.

But it was not wise to do it here, those were four strongmen behind Blake, and every one of them was not good to mess with, they may expose Fancy's identity instead... then, everyone would work for nothing!

Avril had already decided, and she said to the crewman, "I'll have these two."

"More than that!" Suddenly Armin said from a short distance away, "We'll take three, the two thin guys and the kid behind them."

"Kid?" The crewman looked over in surprise to find a small boy in front of Armin, "You want a child? What do you want with the kid?"

Speaking of which, it seemed he hadn't noticed that there was a child here, not knowing which way it had come from.

Avril instantly understood that Armin had found a third target!

She sneered back, "None of your business. Can't we keep it as a pet? How much is it?"

The seaman thought for a moment and said, "We do business fairly at the Black Hell Merchant, this kid...10 pearls. But I need to find out which ship the child came from, I don't think I have this child on my ship."

At this point, Avril's mind raced.

The slaves seemed to be covering for the kid, and the kid had strange abilities to hide himself that even the captain could barely find him. The kid's abilities must be strong.

They had a hard time finding the three mutants, so they must be grabbed the chance. Maybe it was an oversight for these crew members not to register them. If let them check them out and found they were mutant, Raine wouldn't get a great deal!

It had to be done now!

Avril said hurriedly, "10 pearls for a little kid? That's too much! Forget it, I don't want it! No need to check, I'll just take these two."

The crewman had a brow locked and didn't say a word.

For a moment, Raine and the others all began to get nervous.
