Chapter Twenty-Five: The Core of the Mountain
It was a long, deep valley, tens of thousands of meters long, and it was all dead silent, with no birds, no animals, no insects, not even trees and grass, and there was no living object here. The entire valley was dark red, as if dyed with blood, giving it an eerie sense of fear.
Woohoo
Suddenly, a space in this valley rippled slightly, and then cracked, and two girls fell out of the cracked space, one dressed in white, and the other in a black dress, black and white formed a sharp contrast, the girl in white was only eleven or twelve years old, not enough, but there was an amazing temperament. The girl in the black dress is slightly older, but she is only fourteen or fifteen years old, her figure is already a little enchanting, and her facial features are charming with coldness.
"What are you using? It's amazing, you can leave in an instant, but unfortunately you can't locate it. The girl in white sat up from the ground, rubbed her aching buttocks, and asked the girl in the black dress next to her curiously, this was the first time she had seen spatial teleportation.
"This is a teleportation jade card, which can instantly tear apart the space and teleport people thousands of miles away, there are those big families and big forces specially made for the disciples of the family experience, and they can escape with their lives in times of crisis. I didn't have a few pieces in the first place, but I used one today, if it weren't for it, we wouldn't have had a chance to escape from there, and you would dare to dislike it!" the girl in the black dress explained first, and at the end, she glared at the girl in white a little angrily.
"Oh, that's amazing," the girl in white sneered and touched her nose, and changed the subject embarrassedly, "Are those people very powerful?"
"Well, it's amazing, they haven't shown up yet, just a hint of breath, and it makes me feel so much pressure, I've never encountered it before. The girl in the black dress looked solemn and thought, "As for whether she can chase it over, it's hard to say, but the ability to tear the space is only available to those who break the immortal and become a god, and the Wuhuan Empire doesn't even have Xuan Xian, so there shouldn't be such a person." ”
"That's good, that's good, I also felt the pressure just now, it's terrifying," the girl in white finally breathed a sigh of relief, took out a map to study, "Where are we now, what should we do next?"
"Looking at this terrain, this should be the Blood Drink Valley not far from Demon Punishment City. The girl in the black dress leaned over and looked at the map, and said, "That's right, let's go to Demon City, sell the things in our hands, and exchange it for a storage spirit weapon for you by the way." ”
"Storage, that's great, let's go. The girl in white was overjoyed, since she saw this partner's storage artifact, she thought it was so wonderful, and she also wanted one.
The two immediately came to an agreement and got up to leave.
These two girls are Lin Haoxue and Shen Molian, and due to the non-positioning of the jade card, they were randomly teleported here. After walking for a long time, they felt that no one could catch up, and they were finally relieved, thinking to themselves, it seemed that those people would not be able to catch up.
What the two of them didn't know was that they had made a mistake, not only did this Wuhuan Empire appear as powerful as they said it was, but there was more than one, and they wouldn't know that their crisis had been solved by a mysterious person who didn't know their identity.
※※※
Demon City is a city on the western border of the Wuhuan Empire, the city is not very large, in the entire Wuhuan Empire, it can only be regarded as a third-rate city at most, but this city has a great advantage, it is the closest to the Warcraft Forest. Because of this, many mercenary groups came here to hunt demonic beasts to earn profits, and Demon City became a paradise for adventurers. With the continuous development of Demon City, the Wuhuan Empire has also relocated the mercenary union that was originally in the imperial capital here.
Nowadays, the prosperity of Demon City is not much worse than that of those first-class cities. There are many high-rise buildings and many shops in the city, most of which sell all kinds of weapons, all kinds of spells, and other things that increase combat effectiveness, and what they buy are magic cores, monster skins and other refining materials.
Entrusted to the auction house, it is the largest shop in Demon City, and it is not necessarily true to say that it is a shop, but if it is specially used to acquire various demon cores. According to legend, there is a lot of power behind the auction house, and even the royal family of the Wuhuan Empire does not dare to offend easily.
At this time, the first floor of the auction house is very spacious, enough to accommodate nearly 5,000 people, but there are more people here, they are all in groups, most of them are rough, their faces are vicissitudes and tired, but these people have a faint smile on their faces, showing their more beautiful mood at the moment. And behind the counter, there are four clerks, they are busy and orderly going through the procedures for selling weapons and buying the corpses of Warcraft, it can be seen that the business here is very good, and these mercenaries have to wait in line.
In the procession, two beautiful girls, one black and one white, were also lining up, and they were extremely conspicuous in the hall full of rough mercenaries, so almost everyone's eyes were focused on them. Even the busy clerk couldn't help but take a few more looks, wondering which lady came here to join in the fun.
"This sister, may I ask if you are here to buy the magic core?" Finally it was her turn, Lin Haoxue stepped forward and said with a smile, she was young, she was beautiful, and she spoke very politely, and she immediately won the favor of this clerk.
"Little sister, we can buy magic cores here, but we only accept magic cores above the third level, and we don't accept the first and second grades. The female clerk said patiently.
There are seven levels of magic cores of Warcraft, and the first and second level magic cores are only used by those who have not entered the spell master to practice spells, and they can't really be used for forging, and the practicality is not very great, but the magic cores above the third level can be used for forging, or embedded in the weapon to improve the attack power of the weapon. Therefore, for the mysterious, the price is very high. The starting point of the auction house is high, so only the magic cores above the third level are acquired.
"Rank 3 or higher? Lin Haoxue thought for a moment when she heard this, and said with a smile. She dared to guarantee that none of the magic cores she had now were below the third level.
"How many are you?" said the clerk, still patiently.
"Hey, I said, you two don't mess around. Get out of the way, clerk, accept our monster skins, this time, we have gained a lot. Lin Haoxue didn't continue to answer, and the people in line behind him said nothing.
Lin Haoxue looked over and saw that it was a big man with a beard, and he saw that he was impatient.
"This friend, according to the rules we put in the auction house, no matter what, it should still come in order, and look at this little sister's things. The female clerk frowned, but still said politely, although she herself thought that Lin Haoxue was just joking.
"It's just two children, it's just a joke, how can there be any magic core, let alone a magic core above the third level. The big man muttered in a low voice, but he didn't dare to disobey the rules in the auction house.
"Well, there's a lot of cores, and we haven't counted them. Lin Haoxue said as if she was a little distressed.
Although Lin Haoxue's voice was not loud, many people around him still heard it.
The magic cores above the third level are a bit too much? Didn't count them?
The third-level demonic beast is equivalent to the early stage of the human Xuanshi, besides, in terms of combat effectiveness, the combat power of the demonic beast is obviously more than that of the human Xuanshi, how old is this girl, and she dares to say that the magic core in her hand is not countable.
People looked at Lin Haoxue's eyes in surprise at first, and then gradually turned into pity, looking at a very beautiful girl, it turned out that there was something wrong with her head. Even the female clerk frowned unconsciously when she heard this, feeling that Lin Haoxue was talking big.
"Hmph!" Shen Molian, who had been standing beside Lin Haoxue, suddenly snorted coldly, suppressing all those voices that were talking.
"Huh?" I don't know who snorted.
Only then did people notice that the girl in the black dress who had been standing beside the girl in white had her cold snort just now, which instantly suppressed people's discussions, which meant that her strength was higher than those who were talking, but how old was she, how could it be, you must know that the mercenaries in this hall have the least strength at the level of a Xuanshi.
Crash
I didn't see any movements of the girl in the black dress, people just felt that they were all bright in front of them, and a bunch of shiny things suddenly appeared in front of the two girls, all of which were rich in spiritual power fluctuations, and they were all magic cores, and the smallest of these magic cores was the size of an egg, red, green, cyan, blue, colorful, and beautiful.
Looking at the energy fluctuations on these demon cores, no one would think that this was not above the third level. In front of him, these demons formed a cone with a diameter of two meters at the bottom, equal to the height of the girl in the black dress. Usually, these mercenaries also sell magic cores, but the amount is very small, hundreds are considered a lot, but to be able to take out such a pile like this, it is unprecedented, such a large number, how many should there be? No wonder people say that they can't count them.
For a while, the eyes of all the people in the hall on the first floor fell on Lin Haoxue and Shen Molian, how old are these two girls? How did they get these magic cores? Also, to be able to carry these things, it is obvious that they have storage spiritual weapons.
The storage spirit weapon is a kind of spirit weapon refined by the refiner, and the internal space is called the space, which can carry a lot of things, which is the dream of the mercenaries, but because the price is too expensive, most of them can't afford it, so in the mercenary group, only a very small number of people can have it.
These were all mercenaries present, and there was no one who didn't want the storage spirit weapon, so the eyes they looked at Lin Haoxue and Shen Molian were changing, and the initial exclamation gradually turned into greed, both greed for the storage spirit weapon and greed for the mountain of demon cores.
If it weren't for the fact that the auction house is now pinned on, if it weren't for the amazing power of the auction house, I'm afraid that someone would be tempted to come and grab it immediately.
"Two, please go up to the second floor. After a long time, the female clerk came back to her senses, and looked at Lin Haoxue and Shen Molian's eyes, she was full of amazement, what kind of monster is this.
Of course, because of the constraints of professional ethics, she did not inquire into the secrets of Lin Haoxue and the two. Instead, he took the lead and went up the stairs, Lin Haoxue and Shen Molian glanced at each other, put away the magic core, and at the same time stepped on the stairs to the second floor.
