Chapter 220 Arriving at the Bloodseller's Bazaar
A demon carrying the corpse of a contract demon into the bustling devil's bazaar is obviously a very irrational act. As a sane magician, Feige had to spend the night guarding corpses on the battlefield, during which he collected soul larvae like an inferior demon to enrich his "money bag". When Xia Ni summoned him, he brought the "corpse" of the contract demon back to the mortal world.
"Don't be nervous, it's alive, but it's not conscious. This is the body I had before, and I don't know why it was reassembled and regenerated. It's weird, I can't leave it in hell. ”
"As long as this thing doesn't rot, then find a place to hide it......" Xia Ni took a closer look: "The old body is so ugly, it's better for you to look like now." ”
"Lust demons are all formed by the fall of angels, with angels as the foundation, and exercise on the battlefield all day long, the overall appearance is definitely much better than that of contract demons. Feige looked at Xia Ni for a moment, then said with a smile, "Don't take it seriously, it's just a joke." Appearance doesn't matter, no matter how beautiful the skin is, if it is evil and harmful, then it can't be liked!"
Feige was quite careful with the disposal of this old body. Although it now looks like a corpse, it has no ability to move at all, and it does not respond to external stimuli, but it does have a little soul fire, and it is possible to get up and move again. Therefore, Feiqi treats it as a captured contract demon, and it must be locked and tied up, coupled with the thunder circle used to protect against evil, and surround it layer by layer.
After completely imprisoning it, Feige was able to return and continue his journey to Hell with relative peace of mind, two days after the mortal world had passed. The place where it landed was the same as before, and the ground had been cleaned up, at least there were no formed corpses, at most only blood stains and a few residual broken arms. Soul larvae, the size of maggots, are attracted to these "foods" and grow here to become silkworm-like adults worth collecting, which are then used to strengthen devils or demons. The cycle of life and death of evil will not stop, from ancient times that no one can remember, all the way to the eternal future.
Fitch carried the Pit Excalibur and walked towards the Blood Dealer Bazaar in the direction indicated by the Barb Demon earlier. The desolate ground beneath his feet had long been scorched, and the fireballs that fell from the sky from time to time were constantly exploding, so that there was nothing left on the ground except rubble. Demons can walk on this land, partly because they themselves are not harmed by fire, and partly because their presence will "soothe" the emotions of this layer of hell, so that the place where the devil gathers will not be attacked by fireballs.
Hell has its own emotions, order and evil are eternal, and then each layer of hell has its own characteristics. On the first level, Aphernas, where wars are constantly taking place, or the invasion of demons, or the gathering of demons to invade other worlds, a tyrannical excitement is always brewing and accumulating here. If it's calm, then it can't suppress its temper, and a fireball is generated. Most of these fireballs will land in the open space where there is "nothing to do", so the location where there is devil activity is rarely bombed, but the alien creatures do not have this kind of good luck, and they are almost all blessed with a "fireball fireball bomb me" enhancement.
Because of the presence of such fireballs that appear out of thin air, other world travelers who come to the first level of Hell must take precautions or stay in places where there are many demons. The Bronze Fortress is the lair of the first Helllord Bair, and the most powerful fortress that guards the passages of the second level of the Hell, and is fended off demons and other invaders. There were outrageous numbers of demons from other levels who had come to fight, and the fireballs were completely circling the fortress. However, the Bronze Fortress has obvious class barriers, and the devil occupies an absolute advantage, so it is difficult for outsiders to be treated in line with their power and status, except that being squeezed is being squeezed, so unless there is something particularly important, outsiders generally do not go to the Bronze Fortress.
Places like the Blood Dealers' Bazaar are their preferred targets.
First of all, the Blood Dealers' Bazaar is next to a devil's fortress, not as big as a bronze fortress, which can only hold 30,000 soldiers, and is not on the front line, but it is not far from the front line. This is the equivalent of the rear of the front line, and the materials, troops, wounded and booty pass through here, so it is naturally easy to gather crowds.
With the exception of a few low hills, the desolate scorched earth plains are unsheltered and devoid of vegetation, so the bazaar is a gathering place for a large and small simple tent. From a distance, it feels like a nomadic tribe plus caravans plus Indian settlements mixed in with some primitive cave people. Yes, in addition to tents, it is also a good idea to make a hole directly in the ground and hide underneath from the fireballs, especially for those who want to run their business for a long time.
If you look closely, you will find that there are no textiles here, and the tents are all made of leather, and it is easy to guess what kind of creature the skin is: the devil's skin is not afraid of fire, but it is certainly not suitable for use here; However, in the demon army, the stronger demons will be taken away by the corpse collection team and handed over to the bad demons to squeeze and cultivate soul larvae, and what can be left is basically cowardly demons and servant demons, etc., and the skin is also tattered and not large, so the tents are like patches spliced together.
The tent is supported by bones, which to be more precise are the role of wood in the building. Mori Sen white bones can be seen everywhere, beams, columns, scaffolding, tables and chairs, and things taken from the body of the deceased have been used to the extreme. No matter which direction you looked, it was the skin of the corpse, the bones of the corpse, and the sound of wind chimes made of broken bones was constantly heard in your ears. However, this did not give the Blood Dealer Bazaar a bit of a necromantic graveyard feeling, because more of the vision was filled with devils.
Strong muscles, mighty armor, and hideous faces, most of the devils on the front line look like this. The most numerous are Barbs, who are equivalent to the basic infantry in the army, and are on the front line both in attack and defense, and demand will definitely affect production. The barbed spear that never leaves their hand is their greatest feature, and there is even a joke that the barbed spear is the main body, and the strong body next to it is just an inferior demon controlled by parasitism. Whether it's eating or drinking, bullying the devil of the lower class, and even at XO, the barb demon has to hold the spear with one hand. Well, Feige regretted seeing that scene just now.
With a buzzing sound, the Demon Controls flew over the streets of the bazaar. The upper body of this devil is like a newborn baby, and the lower body is a fly stained with blood, not to mention how strange and disgusting it looks. They are not the product of the first layer of hell, but from the seventh layer, made by the Devil Grand Duke of the seventh layer. This buzzing little thing is the recorder and announcer among the devils, shouting the latest news loudly as he flies: "Conscription in the Taize Depression, spellcasters first, women first! Two deserters who reneged on their contracts will be executed in the execution ground on the east side in three hours and twenty-seven minutes, please enjoy! Succubus slave auction, buy one get one free, casters who can regenerate can get a 50% discount......"
It's kind of a novelty to listen to it once in a while, but if you listen to it too much and listen to it constantly, even the devil can't stand it. Feige dragged a demon over as it flew by, asking it "Where is the Succubus Slave Auction?" and the strange thing actually told Feige to "talk to the boss" or "shoot wherever you want". It seemed that Fei Qi had the idea of tearing it up directly, and the demon hurriedly said that he would pay 5 spirit coins for killing himself, and it was better to save it to buy all kinds of things, such as a tent, a hell horse or a good handy backpack, and if he committed it again, the fine would continue to "triple!"
What hell!
Rather than the advertisements that constantly echoed overhead, Feige would rather listen to the clanging of iron. Armor and weapons are an important guarantee for the devils to obtain war exploits and strive to survive and enjoy them in order to level up, so trading weapons and equipment with soul larvae is the biggest business in the Blood Dealers Bazaar. All the weapons and armor here are battle-tested, and the actual combat has eliminated the witchcraft batch, and there is not a trace of fancy that can survive. Simple, rough, effective, cheap, these four words are the most common advertising words in the weapons and armor bazaar. If you look closely at the heavy swords, war hammers, great bows, and cuirass, and appreciate the intent of each of their designs, you can also appreciate the beauty of these bronze and steel objects. But is there anything stronger and more beautiful in this bazaar? Of course there is.
A little devil came up to Feiqi, touched it lightly with his hooked tail, and then flatteringly introduced Feiqi, "There is a new batch of good goods in Barclay's artifact item shop, welcome to the Demon Lord to pick them up." ”
"Artifact, are you sure you're pronouncing it correctly?" Feige's eyes narrowed.
"Artifact? Lord Desire, you're laughing, it's magical. The little devil explained with a smile. However, when it noticed that Feige was not smiling, it apologized repeatedly, saying that his tongue had eaten too many shoddy peppers lately, and that he was not speaking well, and slapped himself several times.
"Hmph, you're still very concerned about this Barclay mage!"
"Of course. Only if he has a good business, he will stay in hell for a longer time, deal more with the devils, and increase his value. And if I don't let him fall sooner, am I going to keep him a pet for the rest of my life?"
It's true. Feige told the little devil to get out of the way and began to think about his pet cat. I don't seem to care much about it, and I completely treat that guy as a pet for Xia Ni to play with. Fortunately, Midnight uses the same soul as himself, and Midnight will never find a way to harm himself like the little devil. However, what if midnight feels that it is boring to live and it wants to kill itself, then it must still have to do something to itself? No, you have to coax it and play with it when you go back.
Feige walks the streets of the bazaar, not squinting, but looking left and right with the full vision of Eagle Eye meditation. He hid the cat teaser in the middle of the two black wings behind his back, secretly photographed the surrounding objects, and then analyzed and categorized. After all, the cat teasing stick is made by the essentia of the goddess and the kingdom of God, and the quasi-artifact (in fact, it is an artifact - the cat teasing stick) still needs to pay attention to the wealth and not show it.
In addition to weapons, armor, and slaves, there are also some spell items that are sold here. However, most of the devils rely on physical fitness to fight, and the use of spell items can cause distraction on the battlefield, so they don't like this kind of thing. Only spell items that work automatically and act as protective will have some market. The more high-level the devil's spell ability, the stronger it is, but most of them are in the Bronze Fortress, and they don't easily come to places like the Blood Dealer Bazaar, so the market for spell items is not large.
Although I am very interested in succubi, I am just looking at it, and it is impossible to really buy one. The two succubi in the previous demon accusation ad were captured from the battlefield, and they were indeed beautiful and charming, but one had no left leg, and the other had no legs and right arm, and the devils had no intention of healing them. The devils have a very delicate abacus, and only after the buyer is confirmed, will they cast a limb regeneration spell to restore the two guys to their whole body, and the cost of the regeneration spell has been included in the price of the succubus. This is also why succubi can be used for half price for casters who can use regeneration spells.
There are two succubi for forty spirit coins, and the buyer has to find a way to control them by himself. Feige looked at it for a while and found that the price did not arouse the interest of many people, it seemed to be too expensive, and it seemed to be too troublesome. There were two young-looking humans who wanted to bid, but they could only come up with a few spell scrolls and spell items. Feige noticed that there were already some little devils eyeing these two guys, the young mage with half of his brain on the lower body, what a good target to control!
An ordinary soul can be made into about two to three spirit coins, and the stronger ones can be exchanged for ten or even twenty pieces. The more corrupt the soul, the more efficient it is when it comes to extracting energy and turning it into spirit coins, so the soul of a particularly fallen powerful mage can even be exchanged for a hundred spirit coins. Moreover, by accompanying a mage, the little devil also has the opportunity to influence the people around him, which is another large amount of money.
Eventually, the two young mages didn't scrape together enough money and left with a sense of loss and the little devil who followed them. Two succubi who failed to sell were dragged to the slaughterhouse and used to make soul larvae to recover some of the losses. This is the devil's way of behaving, making the best choice for the best possible benefit. If the demon of desire falls into the hands of the demon, there will not even be such a thing as an auction, but directly ......
Feige didn't want to think about that. As a demon without a superior - his superior is the "Yama King", which is himself - Feige is not forced to carry out some mortal orders, so he just needs to avoid falling into a mortal situation. In the bazaar, he found an exchange point and exchanged 6 spirit coins for 75 to 1, plus 80 spirit coins that he "inherited" from the contract demon, which is all his current net worth.
A beautiful demon came to him at this time: "Hello, dear young fellow, my name is Erryeth. ”
