Chapter 35: Would You Like a Bottle?
As soon as Dio and the others stepped into the bar, all the voices disappeared, and everyone in the bar looked at Dio and the others with malicious eyes. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
They were all blood-licking scoundrels, and these people could identify Dio and the others almost instantly: they were all assassins!
You know, this is a branch of the Thieves' Guild! The relationship between the local Thieves' Guild and the Assassins' Guild is very ordinary. In other words, the Thieves' Guild didn't care if the Assassins were in trouble on their territory.
Therefore, this group of drunkards with different identities naturally focused on Dio and the others, just like spiders watching the prey that fell into the spider's web.
Without waiting for Melia to make a move, Dio stepped forward, and while letting out a cold snort, he unreservedly released his murderous aura.
The extremely strong murderous aura made the bar suddenly cold, the stronger people immediately put away their careful thoughts, the weaker ones hurriedly turned their heads, and some very weak people even began to shiver.
Although they were not targeted by Dio, Yuri and Karin, who felt the intensity of this murderous aura, subconsciously took a step back, while Melia looked at Dio with some surprise in her eyes.
After successfully suppressing all the people watching him, Dio put away his murderous aura and began to look at the speakeasy.
Although it was close to dawn, there were still many people in the bar. Shocked by Dio's murderous aura, these drunkards with weapons on their bodies have sobered up a lot.
However, although no one was watching Dio and the others as wantonly as they did just now, Dio could still sense that a few strange lines of sight would sweep over him from time to time.
Glaring at those glances, Dio swaggered to the small door on the other side of the bar as if he had returned to his home. Melia chuckled and led Yuri and Karin after Dio and left the speakeasy.
It wasn't until Dio and the others left that the hustle and bustle in the bar resumed, but the current hustle and bustle seemed to be somewhat outsider.
And when the villains were talking about the gang just now, the middle-aged bar owner, who had been sitting at the bar, quickly took out a small note from his arms. After writing and drawing on the note, the stern-faced bar owner opened a small drawer and placed the note on the small magic circle in the drawer.
The light of magic flickered, and the little note was gone.
The bar owner closed the drawer and sat back down at the bar with a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened.
Walk out the small door on the other side of the bar and you'll find yourself on the underground black market run by the Thieves' Guild. The location of this underground black market is actually located in a natural underground cavern. The cave wasn't huge, but with the Thieves' Guild, it barely fit a small market.
There are many torches fixed to the four walls of the cave, and although the light of the torches is not bright enough, it is enough for passers-by to see the contents of the stalls.
However, because this place is not large, there are many people setting up stalls, and there are many people coming and going, which makes this underground black market more or less crowded. Of course, there are people from the Thieves' Guild watching the scene, and although the black market is chaotic, it is orderly in chaos and does not seem chaotic.
Now that they have reached their destination, Melia and the others, who rarely come to the black market, made an appointment with Dio to meet at the speakeasy later, and then they dispersed and went separately to buy what they wanted.
In the crowd that seemed to be a little crowded, Dio watched and listened to all directions to find his target, while carefully guarding his surroundings.
A little boy who looked a little thin stumbled in the direction of Dio, and when he passed by Dio, he suddenly staggered his feet and crashed directly into Dio.
But just as he was about to meet Dio, a chill suddenly hit his throat. Without speaking, Dio just glanced at the little boy coldly, and there was no emotion in his eyes.
With a smile on his face, the boy withdrew his hand holding the blade, took two steps back, and then blended into the crowd.
(After all, it's a black market run by a thief guild, and there are so many thieves...... )
Dio shook his head and continued to move forward. And in the crowd not far from him, Melia, who had already undergone some disguise, watched Dio's every move, and her eyes gradually narrowed.
Despite its small size, Charlestown's proximity to the Black Forest and the Black Ridge Mountains makes it a natural last resort for adventurers trying to make their way to the Black Forest and the Black Ridge Mountains. The underground black market is clearly more popular with mercenary adventurers than the official market, where many stalls are stocked with goods that are officially forbidden to be sold, and some even have crossbows.
Of course, the price of these prohibited items is definitely expensive enough.
"Take a look, take a look!"
"Silverscale breastplate! One piece of hardware! ”
"Walk by the side of the road! Don't miss out! ”
"A bottle at the critical moment! Worry-free for your life! ”
In the midst of the noisy shouting, Dio gradually frowned. He had already visited most of the black market, and the system elf Bart was helping to investigate, but he had never found any trace of the contemplation potion or the materials used to make the contemplation potion.
Searching the surrounding stalls, Dio eventually walked to a stall that appeared to be selling alchemical potions.
"Oops! Guest, would you like some holy water? I can assure you that the quality of my holy water here is absolutely good! The price is also absolutely affordable......"
When the young man at the stall saw the guests coming, he hurriedly greeted them loudly.
And Dio looked at the bottles and cans that were marked by Bart as [Holy Water with Water], frowned and said, "Money is not a problem!" But don't fool me with these water-mixed goods, take a look at some really good ones. ”
After searching Viscount Boton's home, Dio managed to buy a lot of gold coins, which were definitely enough to buy a lot of various potions.
The young man's face froze, and then he took out a few bottles from his arms with a haha. Compared to the liquid on the stalls, which constantly emitted a golden and white light, the liquid in these bottles looked no different from the water you normally drink.
But Bart reminds Dio that these holy waters are genuine! And it's a high-quality holy water that won't be circulated in the market!
Dio raised his eyebrows and looked at the smiling young man in front of him with some surprise.
