Chapter 68: The Shadow of the Black Ship

Put the jewelry that needs to be discounted into the old space bag he used before, Xu Yichen plans to try his luck this time to go to the Blind Eye Jewelry House, and take part of it to be cashed, that witch shouldn't do anything to herself, right?

Moreover, even the Chaos Demon was kept as a pet by that woman, just a mere lord, she shouldn't take it seriously at all, right? With this mentality, Xu Yichen took the samurai Vittoria to the witch's jewelry store together.

In order not to ask for trouble, the equipment in hand cannot be worn out openly for the time being, but he does not have much time in the city, and as soon as the matter of the merchant ship is settled, Xu Yichen plans to go to his territory to inspect it.

When Xu Yichen stepped into the living area of Anthony Port again, he really felt the atmosphere of the city, the sky had just seen dark, and every household had closed its doors.

Except for a few open doors in the trading area of Nuoda, there is not even a single figure. Only in the distance, a patrol of nearly 30 men of the city guards, led by an officer, would hurriedly patrol and pass by.

But most of the soldiers in the bloated ranks were newly recruited, cowering in silence, as if afraid to make a noise and cause trouble.

The entire city lost nearly 800 lives in the chaotic erosion that Xu Yichen personally experienced, although most of them were proletarians in the slums, but for all the residents, the changes in the past few days were enough to scare these people who had hardly experienced war.

"Let's go, don't think about it so much, they're not sad yet, you should go to the refugee camp outside the city, that's hell on earth." The female warrior pushed Xu Yichen and motioned for him to continue walking, so as not to attract the attention of the patrol.

I don't know what happened to Ted and the others, Xu Yichen remembered that they also said that they were going to the refugee gathering place to find the survivors of the Rogue camp. He was going to finish what he was doing and go over to see if there was anything he could do to help.

Or the mysterious jewelry shop that looked like a fortune house, and judging by the smell of incense, the blind eye owner still maintained his usual taste.

It's just that the owner here didn't sit in his long position, and the female warrior lowered her head and squeezed in through the door: "The shopkeeper here is very good, I have sold loot here once, as long as the thing is good, it will not be lowered." ”

Thinking of the gold coins and the [broken pendant] he exchanged for here last time, Xu Yichen couldn't help but agree with the female warrior's point of view, this witch gave people a sense of being a tyrant who was not bad for money from head to toe.

The same ageless voice came out of the mysterious door behind the counter: "It's you again, little hunter, if you come a few more times, I might have a regular demon hunter client in the future." ”

The witch, who was still wearing the purple robe, appeared in front of the two of them and sat lazily in her place: "Say, is there something tricky that you need my help with?" ”

Xu Yichen couldn't help but search for the chaotic demon who was raised as a cat in the line of sight, and took his teacher to pull the banner: "Yes, there is a big deal." My teacher said that you have always been a child here, and the price is fair. ”

The witch has always maintained a lazy but dignified posture leaning on the soft collapse, and when she heard Xu Yichen's words, she couldn't help laughing, this was the first time Xu Yichen saw her open her mouth: "You are so cute, little hunter, you must have only been a demon hunter apprentice for a long time, right?" We don't even know the history of us and the demon hunters. ”

The samurai had no interest in the communication between the two people, and took out a sculpture of a cat from the shelf on the wall, all black, only the claws of the limbs, as if wearing gloves, snow-white, grape-sized eyes, shining in the surrounding lights, the whole sculpture was vivid, like a living thing.

"It's all jewelry, we found a shipwreck by the sea, and the harvest was good." Xu Yichen's face was pale, and he casually made up a lie.

"Hehehe, little hunter, take out all your things and let me see, this time for your sake of being so interesting, I won't care about your little tricks, anyway, Antoine's fat man doesn't dare to trouble me." The witch looked at Xu Yichen's eyes with a smile and said.

Xu Yichen still maintained his smile, and piled up all the things he planned to cash out this time on the bar from the prepared space bag, as if it was not himself who had been exposed to the lie.

Pouring the last unicorn on the bar, Xu Yichen made a gesture of please: "Inspect the goods, boss, how much are you going to sell?" ”

The witch played with the unicorn toy with great interest, seeming to be very interested in the thing, while casually pulling the rest of the things on the table: "Tsk, Antoine has collected these rags for so many years? I'm not a place to collect the rags, isn't it all there? ”

"One more thing, I'll take it after a while." Xu Yichen watched the witch critically examine the pile of jewelry.

"You have two options." The witch looked at the apprentice demon hunter with a playful look: "First, I bought your things for 30% of the market price, believe me, no one in this city dares to do this business except me." But unfortunately, I've heard that you've been in dire need of money lately? By the way, I happen to be interested in a large ship in the harbor, and I was recently negotiating the price with the owner's widow. ”

Xu Yichen pursed his lips, although he was already very cautious, but for this witch with a mysterious origin, he still underestimated the other party's intelligence ability.

"We witches, if we have nothing to do, we will use playing cards in the room to divinate the future, and we can always know a lot of little secrets." The witch gloated and continued: "Of course, there is a second option. ”

"If you're willing to do me a favor, I'll buy everything you want to sell at the market price, and I'll be far from your deal." The witch threw out her own olive branch.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?" Xu Yichen planned to listen to the witch's request.

"Don't worry, it's not for you to kill people and set fires." The witch stretched lazily: "I know you have a territory, I need you to help me protect a few children, until the paladins arrive, you just need to ensure that they spend their time in your territory." ”

"I don't understand, what kind of threat they face, even you don't dare to face the edge, but think I can complete this task?" Xu Yichen asked.

"Black ship, kid. If you've learned about this with your teacher, you know what I'm talking about. The witch replied in a tone of seriousness that had never been seen before.
