Chapter 148: Black Market Trading
Royal capital, late at night.
In the night sky, a figure shrouded in black robes was floating in the air, quickly passing over the low houses.
After becoming an intermediate magician, Chen Luo's spiritual power has increased qualitatively again, and in intermediate magic, the first thing he learned was flying magic.
Although this was only an intermediate-level spell, it made Chen Luo's air combat ability from scratch, and if he had been able to fly a year ago, it would have been easier to deal with Baird.
On the way to fly, he bypassed the magic association, the temple, and the area where the nobles gathered, after all, this was the royal capital, and there were countless high-level magicians, so he swaggered around above the heads of others, which was too attention-grabbing.
During the day, Chen Luo had already figured out the trading location of the black market, and at this time, he was also familiar with the road, and soon landed in an abandoned manor in the city.
The black market is a shady transaction, strictly speaking, it is not allowed by the laws of the kingdom or even the laws of the empire, and without special relationships and channels, ordinary magicians cannot get information about the black market at all.
Not only that, but the security here is also very high.
As soon as Chen Luo landed, two figures walked out of the darkness.
Under Chen Luo's black robe, a deep voice soon came out: "Swear in the name of the gods, whoever maliciously divulges secrets will be destroyed, and their souls will be burned by eternal flames for eternity......"
Arthur had already told him about the precautions of the black market, and any magician who participated in the trading on the black market must swear in the name of the gods that he would never divulge the secrets of the black market to the kingdom officials.
It can be seen that the Magic Association and the Kingdom officials do not seem to have the same mind.
After Chen Luo finished reciting the oath, the footsteps of the two figures stopped, and countless fireballs suddenly appeared in the dark void around them.
These fireballs are arranged in two parallel columns, forming a road in the middle, and at the end of the road is an entrance.
Chen Luo looked left and right, walked down the steps, and after walking through dozens of steps, a spacious and bright space appeared in front of him.
The space is ten zhang square, and the walls on all four sides are lined with shelves, on which are scattered wooden barrels, and the barrels exude a sweet smell of decay, proving that this was once a wine cellar.
This kind of underground closed environment gave Chen Luo a great sense of security.
If anything happens, he can gather all the oxygen in this small space to him in a very short time, and let his enemies suffocate to death without a sound.
When Chen Luo came, there were already more than a dozen black-robed people dressed similarly to him, standing or sitting, most of them were alone, even if they were two people in a group, there was no communication between them, everyone seemed to be waiting for something, and the whole space was quiet.
Chen Luo found a no-one corner to stand, and after him, five or six people came in one after another, and after another quarter of an hour or so, there was a "squeak" outside, and the heavy wooden door of the wine cellar was closed.
A figure also wrapped in a black robe walked in from the entrance, and said in a low voice: "The rules here, you should all know very well, except for the resources of the Loran Magic Association are not traded, you can trade anything you want with each other......
Before starting, the black-robed man briefly explained some rules, aimed at newcomers who participated in the black market for the first time.
In addition to not divulging the secrets of the black market to the kingdom, the resources of the Magic Association of the Kingdom of Loran cannot be traded here, in addition, on the black market, it is forbidden to fight, and it is also forbidden to use magic, violators will be severely punished, and all grievances between magicians must wait until the black market is disbanded......
After that, the normal process of the black market is very simple, the magicians go to the stage in turn to say their trading items or needs, and the magicians who have the intention of trading will contact them privately.
"I need advanced fire or wind variant magic, which can be exchanged for earth or water, and I can also provide gold ......"
The first to step forward was a middle-aged man wearing a red robe and wearing a mask.
Although he didn't wear a magic robe, according to his needs, it was not difficult to guess that he was mostly a high-level magician, majoring in fire or wind, and he should have encountered a bottleneck in his spiritual power and urgently needed a new magic breakthrough.
And the reason why he didn't choose to come through the Magic Association may be because his contribution to the Magic Association is not enough, or it may be that the price of the Magic Association is too high, he can't accept it, Chen Luo noticed that after the magician walked down, there were two people who contacted him one after another, as for whether they reached a deal or not, Chen Luo didn't know.
The second to come to the stage was an old man, who, like Chen Luo, was covered in a black robe, wanting to get a water super-level magic and bidding 10,000 gold coins......
The magic levels are generally divided into apprentice, beginner, intermediate, advanced, super, and holy levels.
The first four magic levels correspond to the mage level.
And the power released by the great magician, the magister, and the great magister is far more powerful than the high-level magic, collectively known as super-level magic, such as John Carventu's Fire Domain, which can make a certain range around you be filled with fire elements and incinerate all enemies in this area......
As for the magic of the Holy Order, it can only be comprehended by the Holy Magister, Chen Luo only knows that after the magic reaches the Holy Level, there will be a qualitative change, but he does not know what the specific change is.
So far, he doesn't know who has reached this legendary rank in the Divine Grace Continent.
Not to mention saint-level magic, even super-level magic is extremely difficult to obtain, and in general, magicians can only obtain it through the Magic Association.
But it is impossible to take the things of the Magic Association for nothing, first of all, the mage must join the Magic Association and contribute enough to the Magic Association in order to obtain the resources of the corresponding level.
This is an important reason why there are so many masters of the Magic Association, because the higher resources are monopolized by the Magic Association, and magicians must rely on the Magic Association if they want to go further on the road of magic.
And those magicians who are unwilling to join the Magic Association can only seek other ways, either to find a powerful teacher or to go through the black market......
This old man, it should be that his spiritual power has reached the level of a great magician, but he lacks super-level magic, and can only be regarded as half a great magician, in the case of similar spiritual power, one can only use fire dragon magic, and the other has already comprehended the realm of fire, and there is no suspense at all.
To Chen Luo's surprise, even the powerhouses of the Great Magician level would be attracted by the black market, and there were really people trading super-level magic on the black market, and not long after the old man went down, someone came forward to contact him, and the two talked secretly for a long time, and it seemed that a deal had been reached.
In comparison, Chen Luo's demand for mid-level variant magic was a bit out of the table.
After a few more people spoke, Chen Luo didn't care about the problems on the table, and finally stepped forward and said, "I need the four series of intermediate variants and improved magic, the more the better, you can exchange gold coins for ......"
With that, he walked to his original corner and waited quietly.
It's just that he waited for a long time, and no one came to contact him, which made Chen Luo a little suspicious, aren't these magicians short of money?
Now he has almost nothing but gold coins, and what is really valuable, others can't learn it, and he can't take it out.
Just when he thought he would run for nothing today, a figure suddenly came from the side and asked, "You want intermediate variants and improved magic?"
Chen Luo looked at the black-robed man and said, "Except for those that the Luolan Magic Association has. ”
"Of course. The black-robed man snorted coldly and said, "There are eyeliners of the Magic Association everywhere here, who dares to steal their business?"
He glanced at Chen Luo and asked, "How much do you want?"
Chen Luo asked, "How many do you have?"
"Ten. The black-robed man said: "It's all resources collected from other countries, seven for fire, one for water, one for earth, and one for wind, so many, can you eat it?"
Chen Luo said indifferently: "You don't have to worry about this." ”
The man looked at him again, and suddenly asked, "Do you want a junior one?"
"Beginner don't. Chen Luo said: "But if you still have a high-level one, I want it." ”
There are not as many intermediate level improved magic as apprentices and junior ones, and there must be fewer advanced ones, so Chen Luo must take precautions and plan for the future.
"Advanced...... It's too hard to do. The man shook his head and said, "Ten mutant magic, one thousand gold coins for each of the fire type, one thousand five for the water system, one thousand five for the earth system, and two thousand for the wind system, I will calculate ......."
"One seven gets seven, two hundred and seventy-two......" He calculated for a long time before he looked at Chen Luo again and said: "A total of 10,000 gold coins, one hand to pay the money, the other hand to deliver the ......"
Chen Luo was stunned for a moment, then looked at him and asked, "It's just intermediate-level magic, and the Magic Association can't sell it so expensive, can't it be cheaper?"
The black-robed man didn't give Chen Luo a chance to bargain, and said categorically: "In order to get these resources, I risked my life to escape from Gaya alive, 10,000 gold coins, not a single gold coin can be less......
