Chapter 297: Intrigues

Saying goodbye to Charlotte and declining the guard's request for guidance, Ye Kong left the cathedral alone, talking to the residents (NPCs) on the street along the way, in order to obtain information about the city of Ludniel.

Thanks to the sheltering effect of Garm, the whole conversation went very smoothly, and after a while, Ye Kong learned the location of the business district and the specific direction of No. 23 Street.

So, he followed the direction and ran all the way to No. 23 Street in the business district.

The crowd was full of noise and noise.

The business district of Ludnir is very prosperous, even more lively than the Tayslan Fortress, and at a glance, it is full of people who come and go, some are Stygian players, some are residents of Ludnir, and they are mixed with each other, and only by relying on the personal information above their heads can they tell whether the other party is a player or a local resident.

The streets of the commercial district are lined with shops, among which the pharmacy and the grocery store (a shop specializing in selling materials) are the most popular, after all, they are the two most popular types of products with the most extensive use and consumption, regardless of the commercial area of the city.

"Level 2 sharp-eyed elixir, as long as 5 silver coins a bottle, there is not much inventory, if you want to buy it as soon as possible!"

"Level 3 material: Corpse set of eagle eyes, can replace the Spotted Eagle Eye material in the level 2 sharp-eyed potion, greatly improving the effect of sharp-eyed elixir, the current inventory in the warehouse is not much, those who want to buy it seize the opportunity, the price is only 10 silver coins / one!"

"The second-level material Spotted Eagle Eye, sold wholesale in large quantities, only 40 silver coins / group, equivalent to 1 silver coin can buy a Spotted Eagle Eye, only accept large quantities of more than 10 groups, customers who want to buy please hurry up!"

A burst of shouting came from the shops, and unlike the situation in the Tayslan Fortress, the shops of Ludnir all focused on the 'Sharp-Eyed Elixir'. Whether it is the finished potion or the related raw materials, it has become the hottest best-selling product, and the hot sales are the same as Taylan's hot drinks.

Because after the release of the first expansion, the physical weather that occurred in the frontline areas of the Stygian Realm was not a curse of the blizzard, but a thicker fog.

With Ye Kong's inspiration attribute in the fog, he was almost successfully attacked by someone, which shows how great the influence of the fog environment is. Moreover, the other players are not like Haku, who only need to run to Ludnir - they also have to hunt monsters, or perform other tasks, and stay in the fog for a long time, and the vision is very important.

As a result, Ranger and Sharp-Eyed Elixir have become the hottest words in the Nightlands.

Ye Kong's purpose when he came to the business district was naturally not to buy sharp-eyed elixirs, but the real goal was the side quest of the "Winter Envoy" - according to the prompts of the task content, he had to find shop No. 104.

But.......

Ye Kong suddenly turned around and got into an armor shop.

There is a number plate hanging above the armor shop, showing shop number 52, and judging from the serial number, it is clearly not the same place as the store designated by the mission.

"Welcome to the Moonlit Night Shop, what do you need?"

As soon as you enter the store, you are greeted by a very enthusiastic female clerk, who has very few customers, and there are three people in total, two of whom are local residents. The real customer, in addition to Ye Kong, is also a young player dressed as a shield guard.

There are four waiters in the armor shop, and there are more waiters than customers in the real sense........

"Hey......"

The shield guard sighed, gently put down the protective gear in his hand, and turned to leave the shop with a look of disgust - judging from his expression, he obviously thought that the things were too expensive, so he had to write the five big words 'not cost-effective' directly on his face.

At this time, the only real customer left was Ye Kong.

"Huh...... Hehe, it makes you smile. The female clerk was also a little embarrassed, but she still maintained her professional ethics, and enthusiastically introduced: "This store is a regular guild store, and it pays more attention to credibility than private stores, and the price is absolutely fair, and there is no bullying ......... children."

There are two types of shops in the Demon World, one is a commercial shop opened by players/guilds after purchasing land, and the other is a commercial shop opened by NPCs. The former needs to operate for a long time to recover the cost, therefore, they pay more attention to credibility and generally do not easily rip off customers, as for the shops opened by NPCs, there is a certain 'risk'.

However, risks often come with opportunities, as players may spend a lot of money on a scrap item in an NPC's shop, or they may spend a small price to buy a seemingly ordinary but actually incredibly valuable rare material.

It all depends on the player's luck and eyesight.

"Well, I'll take a casual look first." Ye Kong dealt with the other party: "I haven't thought about what to buy for the time being, let's take a look first." ”

"Yes, sir." The female clerk smiled and said: "Depending on your level, it should be suitable for the boutique area of level 10-15, please go deeper, at the end of the ordinary area (level 5-10), turn left and you will be in the boutique area." ”

The female clerk's observation is very good, and it can be seen that she is a good sales expert, noticing Ye Kong's level, and on this basis, deducing his equipment needs.

Unlike some clerks, the customers who come are in the teens, but they recommend equipment below level 10.

The female clerk's name is Kana Hanazawa, and the color is displayed in white, indicating that she is a real player, not an NPC clerk - there are two types of clerks in the store, one is a real player who has signed a game contract, and the other is an NPC recruited in the Demon World.

NPC clerks are a bit more 'wooden', but the cost is also low, on the contrary, real players are more flexible and intelligent, and the cost of hiring them is also higher, and even more expensive than the cost of real clerks.

"Thank you for reminding ........" Ye Kong looked at the other party's appearance and couldn't help asking: "Have you ever done sales?" You seem to be quite skilled, not like a newcomer. ”

"Yes, I'm a mall clerk in real life." Hanazawa Kana nodded lightly: "The popularity of the game of "Demon Realm" is too high, merchants are frantically pouring in, many guilds also recruit salesmen, and the salaries offered are higher than reality, and friends around me are pouring in to find jobs. ”

Saying that, Coriander made a magical self-deprecating face: "I'm not good at playing games, I'll die if I fight monsters, and I can't find the key points when I run tasks, so I can only do my 'old job'." ”

"Being a salesman is not a bad thing, I wish you a high career." Ye Kong comforted, turned around and went to the inside of the store, Coriander looked at his back, his gaze fixed on the bright "lv14", and couldn't help but show an envious expression: "Hey, I also want to have the talent to play games........"

Ye Kong stepped into the boutique area, and when he passed around the corner, he suddenly looked back, but there was no trace.

"Huh, there doesn't seem to be a stalker?" Ye Kong was suspicious: "What the hell is that Charlotte doing?" Why don't you send anyone to follow me and let me wander around the city? Or ........"

"She's not going to spy on me at all?"
