Chapter 86: Reconnaissance Mission
The next day, Fang Huairan went to the guard first, and did not go back to rest after the duty was completed, but teleported to Xinghan City with Zhou Tong, one is to see if there is a suitable reconnaissance mission, and the other is to take a look at the Fang Market in Xinghan City, buy some alchemy and talisman classics and raw materials, the two of them are now very poorly affluent, and they urgently need some ways to make money. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Teleported to Xinghan City, the two went directly to the third floor of the Xinghan Palace, before coming Fang Huairan inquired, all the commercial transactions in Xinghan City are concentrated on the third and fourth floors of the Xinghan Palace, of which the third floor is some shops, and the fourth floor is a personal spontaneous market, where anyone can set up a stall, Xinghan City only charges a small booth fee, of course, there are some underground markets and black markets in other places in the city, but Fang Huairan and Zhou Tong have no friends, so there is no way to know.
The goal of the two of them this time is relatively clear, in terms of alchemy, Zhou Tong mainly buys the Danfang to break through the bottleneck during the foundation period, if the raw materials are not expensive, then he also plans to collect all the alchemy raw materials by the way.
In terms of runes, Fang Huairan plans to buy some basic primary rune seals first, and then see if there is a suitable rune pen to buy one, and if there is still money left, buy some blank rune paper and raw materials for refining rune seals, so that when you are on duty, you can practice drawing low-level rune seals.
Soon the two of them came to the third floor, and the third floor of the Xinghan Hall was divided into about twenty grids, a bit like the grids when they held a job fair in the Agricultural Exhibition Hall in college, but there were not so many, and the area of each grid was several times larger than that of the job fair, and there were signboards above the door of each grid.
The shops are mainly the industries of the officials of the three major sects and some disciples, of course, there are also a few of them that are opened by the resident cultivators of the three main cities, selling a variety of things, shopping all the way, so that Fang Huairan and Zhou Tong have opened a lot of eyes, especially those demon puppets and demon world materials, which is an eye-opener for the two, I heard that among the twelve courtyards of this gate, there are courtyards that specialize in the study of demon puppets and demon world materials.
After walking around, Fang Huairan and Zhou Tong found that the shops opened by the three factions all sold some common things, but the prices were slightly expensive, for example, in the Zongmen Industrial Store of Tianji Pavilion, the prices of some things that had been seen before were generally more expensive than those in the sect, and the commonly used things in the shops of the other two factions were also more expensive.
As for those sect disciples and scattered cultivators, it may be a differentiated operation, and there are basically no commonly used things, all of which are all kinds of materials unique to the Demon Realm, and they not only sell these, but also can buy them, it seems that after the monks stationed in Star Cold City complete their tasks, they will directly sell the extra gains here.
After some inquiries between the two, it was found that the shops in the Xinghan Hall only had the foundation building period Danfang and the primary rune seal classics, think about it, because Xinghan City is located in the demon world, except for a few Yu Dan and Yuan Infant stage monks, Qi refining period monks are not allowed to come to duty, so the most are foundation building period monks, the foundation building period Danfang and primary spirit runes are all used by foundation building period monks, most of them are normal, and the general price is not expensive.
Out of the store, the two of them found a no-man's corner, Zhou Tong carefully released the protective sword light to cover the two, and discussed: "The average Danfang of the foundation building period to increase cultivation is about one hundred spirit stones, and we don't need it; I found five Danfangs that broke through the bottleneck, and each of them had more than one hundred and fifty spirit stones, three of which were based on demon pills, and two were based on elixirs It's not expensive, about fifty spirit stones, buy two or three copies can cover most of the elixir, I see you have been looking at the talisman pen for a long time, which one do you like?"
Hearing that Dan Fang was not cheap, Fang Huairan sighed and said: "I fancy a high-level magic weapon-level rune pen, about seven hundred spirit stones, the refining classics of the primary spirit rune are not expensive, the more complete ones are more than sixty spirit stones, and the blank rune paper and materials for refining the primary spirit rune are not very expensive, three or four hundred spirit stones can buy thirty or forty copies, and after calculation, our money is still not enough." ”
"The two of us now have 1,650 spirit stones, the whole elixir must be bought, the Dan Fang is so expensive, and it is estimated that the materials for alchemy are not cheap, so the Dan Fang is not in a hurry, but you can buy some seeds of commonly used elixirs and plant them on our island, otherwise that open space is also a waste, your talisman pen and talisman making materials can be bought, and after buying these, we can still have four or five hundred spirit stones left." Zhou Tong pressed his left hand on the storage bag, his divine sense scanned the assets of the two, and after a moment of calculation.
"It's okay to buy all the things that make talismans, compared to alchemy, talismans are still more economical, there are still four or five hundred spirit stones left, you still buy a Dan Fang, you can study it if you have nothing to do, I think you can buy the Dan Fang with the demon pill as the main material, so that we can use the rest of the time to go to the Fenglin Continent to hunt demon beasts, and we can also exercise our fighting ability." Fang Huairan suggested.
"That's okay, anyway, we don't have any place to spend money for the time being, it's enough to leave three hundred spirit stones for emergency, you're right, the ability to fight is indeed very important, I found that if you want to go far in this immortal cultivation world, the ability to protect yourself is a must, otherwise you can only wait for the salary of the sect every day, and you don't even dare to go out to do tasks." Zhou Tong agreed with Fang Huairan's proposal.
"Then buy these, don't go up to the fourth floor, you can only do it in a hurry if you don't have money to see good things. Fang Huairan decided.
Zhou Tong nodded in agreement, and the two of them returned to the shop that sold the things they needed just now, and bought all the refining materials for the Danfang, the Great Encyclopedia of Elixirs, the Spiritual Rune Classics, the high-level rune penmanship, more than thirty copies of the Five Elements Secret Armor Talisman, and more than ten points of the Five Elements Spirit Arrow Talisman.
These two kinds of runes belong to the five element attribute spirit runes, which are much higher than the price of the general single attribute spirit runes, Fang Huairan's major practice is the five element attributes, refining this kind of five elements spirit runes has innate advantages, and he also weighed it again and again before deciding to refine these two cost-effective spirit runes, especially the five elements secret armor runes, the market price of defensive runes is always the best.
After buying, the two of them only had three hundred and twenty spirit stones left, looking at the few assets left, the two looked at each other helplessly and smiled, walked downstairs hand in hand, and came to the first floor of the Star Cold Palace, where there is a large screen for releasing tasks.
In the center of the first floor of the Star Cold Palace, there was an empty hall, and there were a lot of people in it, Fang Huairan and Zhou Tong swept around, but they didn't find any acquaintances.
There are eight huge screens hanging on the walls around the hall, which display the name, introduction, requirements and contacts of each task, and when you look at each task carefully, there is no other content appearing, unlike a few screen magic weapons that I have seen before, when I see the entry, I will intelligently show more specific content, so it is estimated that it is for the confidentiality of the task, after all, no one wants the content of the task they perform to be known by others, especially the enemy, so as not to be left behind.
Fang Huairan and Zhou Tong browsed through the past screen by screen, and found that the eight screens were roughly divided according to the difficulty of the task, the simplest task can be easily completed by the monks in the early stage of foundation building, and the most difficult task, it is estimated from the task profile that it is very dangerous for monks in the late stage of foundation building to do, maybe only those monks in the false Dan stage can have a greater certainty to complete.
The hall was mixed, Fang Huairan and Zhou Tong had no corner to discuss alone, the two could only use the magic power of sound transmission into the secret to discuss with each other, the two of them were very envious of those high-level monks who transmitted the sound into the secret before, and later after practicing the "Thinking Divine Technique", they easily mastered this magical power.
The main thing is to use mana to compress the sound line, attached to the divine consciousness into the other party's ears, although it looks safe, but it is easy to be eavesdropped by people whose divine consciousness is stronger than their own, so unless the conversation is insignificant, otherwise the two of them will generally open the light mask, and people with strong mana want to eavesdrop, and they will also touch the light mask, and it is difficult to do it without knowing it.
The two discussed for a while, and decided to choose a two-person mission to go to the demon world to explore the abandoned ore veins, according to the report of the monks who patrol daily, there seems to be a demon race coming in and out recently, and the high-level of Star Cold City suspects that it may be an advance stronghold of the demon race, so it is necessary to send someone to investigate it specifically.
According to the mission description, two early stage monks are needed, after all, that ore vein is not far from Xinghan City, and there should be no high-level demons.
The two looked at the contact person of the task, it was Xu Hongzhen from the Seventh Task Office, and wrote down his office location, Fang Huairan and Zhou Tong went out of the hall, turned left and found the Seventh Task Office.
The door of the mission office was closed, there was no prohibition on it, Fang Huairan felt that there might be someone inside, so he stepped forward and knocked on the door, and as soon as the voice fell, a hoarse voice of "Come in" came from inside.
Fang Huairan and Zhou Tong pushed the door in, only to see a black-robed monk sitting behind a wide table, with some jade slips and animal skin books on the table.
The black-robed monk also stood up and bowed back, and invited the two to sit on the chairs used by the guests at the table, Fang Huairan and Zhou Tong explained the meaning straight to the point, the black-robed monk was Xu Hongzhen, hearing that the two were going to carry out a reconnaissance mission, they rummaged on the table, and after a while, they turned out a white jade slip that recorded the details of the task and handed it to them, signaling that the two could take a look at the content of the jade slip first, and then speak.
Fang Huairan and Zhou Tong took turns to check the task content in the jade slip, and after more than 20 minutes, both of them finished checking it and handed the jade slip back to Xu Hongzhen, and after Xu Hongzhen took the jade slip, he added a brief introduction to the task.
The abandoned ore vein is located in the direction of No. 7 Tianwei Fort, and it can be reached in about three days of flight, it used to be a silver concentrate, and it was abandoned before the human race counterattacked to the demon world, and the Jindan monks who patrolled some time ago found that there were signs of demon activity in the vein, but after the divine sense swept it, he did not find the breath of the high-level demons, and he did not deliberately go in to investigate, but came back to inform the high-level, and the high-level decided to send disciples to investigate.
