Chapter Eighty-Three: The Night Box
Things get complicated.
Ye Zhao never dreamed that he would meet another traverser in another world, and he would be recognized by the other party, etc...... In that case, could there be other traversers?
Banff City's technology doesn't look like it's a product of this world at all, isn't it ......
Just as he was thinking about it, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder and said, "Stella, what are you thinking? β
Seeing that it was Andrew, Stella smiled and said, "When are you here too?
"Die, look at what you said, it seems that you don't know my Andrew's personality yet. β
After a few polite remarks, Stella was taken by Andrew to visit the night market in the villages around the city of Saysus.
The mouth village is not large, but the night market after sunset is full of people, and Stella and Andrew wander out of their hiding place when they come to a low, two-storey wooden building with the words "Night Box" written on it.
"Stella, this is the most famous shop in the mouth village, and there are many treasures to be found in it, let's go in and have a look. Andrew said as he led Stella into the Night Box.
In the night box, there were many rich mages in luxurious robes watching around, intently looking at some of the items placed in the transparent barrier, and there were also some people who looked five big and three thick wandering around.
"Stella, this place sells some strange things, very messy, many things that I don't even know, but here you can find some utensils from a long time, many powerful people like to visit here, but there are really people here who can find an unknown treasure or two. β
Andrew's eyes wandered, explaining to Stella as he looked at the items within the barrier.
Suddenly, the memory fragments reappeared, and then a picture passed into Stella's mind, and through the transmission of the images, Stella saw some objects.
His heart moved, he looked around, and said to Andrew without moving: "Andrew, I'll go and walk around." β
"Well, go ahead, call me when you see something good, and I'll call you when you go. Andrew spoke.
Stella then went straight up to the second floor, pausing slightly as she stepped onto the second floor, and then continued up the stairs.
Stella was stopped at the top of the stairs by two burly men, one of whom stared at Stella fiercely, stretched out his hand, and said in a polite tone, "10 Macondo." β
Stella tugged at the collar that covered his face, flipped his palm, and several Macondo coins appeared in his palm, looked at the two big men, and said, "I can go in now." β
"Of course!" the two big men immediately made a gesture of please, and Stella walked straight inside.
The second floor of the night box was very empty, and there were booths all around, with strange objects on them: stones with strange patterns, wood chips with strange words printed on them, and some precious wands that were old and once treasured, etc., in short, there are a lot of very strange things here, quite old, but they are not ordinary things, but I don't know what they are for.
In the middle, a large stone slab was suspended in the air, emitting a faint cyan glow, and it could levitate in the air without the help of any object, and Stella knew at a glance that it was not an ordinary thing.
Although there were not as many people on the second floor of the night box as there were on the first floor, there were also more than twenty richly dressed people wandering inside, looking east and west, and selecting items of interest to them.
Stella shuttled from booth to booth according to the images from memory fragments, and finally stopped in the center, and on a booth in front of him were placed many crystals that emitted this glittering light, the small ones were the size of a thumb, the big ones were the size of an adult's fist, all of them emitted a faint light, and even many of the crystals contained the slightest faint arcane energy fluctuations.
Stella's gaze finally fell on a thumb-sized crystal, which was round and glowing with a faint multicolored light, and the whole body was covered with a layer of strange patterns, which was very eye-catching.
Stella knew in her heart that this crystallized glow was an important part of the memory fragment of the original owner of the name.
Stella called the owner of the Night Box and asked about the price of the crystal.
The owner of the night box was a gray-haired dwarven old man, although he was old, but his eyes were very bright, like two bright stars.
He quickly looked at Stella without a trace, and said with a smile: "You really have a good eye, you can see the extraordinary nature of this crystal, although the size of this crystal you fancy is very small, but its price is much more expensive than other crystals of the same type, the price is 10,000 Macondo coins." β
Stella gasped and almost let out an uncontrollable exclamation, the price was too expensive, it was ridiculously expensive, and his wanted bounty was only 9999 Macondo coins.
Noticing Stella's face, the old man knew that Stella was also taken aback by this price, and explained with a smile: "It's definitely worth the price." β
Stella stared at the thumb-sized crystal in front of him and looked at it carefully, and asked, "Sir, then tell me why it's worth the price." β
The old dwarven cleared his throat and said, "This crystal fell from the sky 50 years ago, and I saw it fall into a lake, and then the lake became colorful like a multicolored mirrorβand then I found out that it had a special function. β
Stella's heart moved, and she suddenly became interested, and asked with a little doubt, "Can you please tell me more details?" β
The owner of the night box smiled and said, "Actually, I don't know very much about some of its functions. β
"I just know that it can easily act as a driving medium for all ritual magic. β
"Oh, is that amazing?" said Stella, who suddenly remembered the Great Portal.
At this time, the others also heard the introduction of the dwarf old man to this crystal, and they were attracted to gather here.
"It's a lie...... isn't it?"
"What crystallization has such power to power all types of ritual magic?"
The people around him questioned in disbelief.
"Believe it or not, and with the reputation of the Night Box, I don't bother to make up such lies. The doubts of the crowd made the old dwarf man look unhappy.
"Sir, I want this crystal. Stella said with a serious face.
