Chapter 19: The Ogre's Magic Shop

The slums are in the farthest part of the Devil's Blade City, where most of the buildings are smaller than those in the rest of the city, and the streets are filthy and stinking. And nowhere is it quiet. The sounds of lower creatures talking, cooking, eating, drinking, and the groans of noise, fighting, and illness soothe crying babies and throw dice. Kobolds, goblins, ogres, gnolls, bear goblins, goblins, and every other low-level creature imaginable. Some of them were runaway slaves. Others are outsiders working in the service industry of Demon Blade City, who have been captured from all over the world and brought back to the city, and it is impossible to return home. The rest are the offspring of the first two unfortunate creatures.

Luckily, in this crowded street, all the guys on foot will immediately make way for us 5 dark elves, except for the spiders. We had to stop from time to time to let these giant spiders, Rose's holy worms, their largest bodies the size of a basin, through the streets. There are also more spiders in the slums than in the rest of the city.

After we walked around the slum a few times, the leading man finally admitted that he couldn't find a place, "It's strange, why can't I find it in a place called Huaishui Well......"

"I'm still in the Yellow River and the Yangtze River! Isn't that one? I pointed to a wall with the words "Broken Path" written crookedly at eye height, and the same scribbled mark below pointed to the side of the path.

At the end of the Broken Path is a separate building with a sign on the door that reads "Broken Path Magic Shop".

We pushed open the door and entered, filled with tables and counters, filled with pill bottles, wands, and other goods, all locked behind glass, and weapons and equipment on weapon racks.

An apron-wearing, 3-meter-tall ogre stands behind a counter. He welcomed us in a deep and infectious voice: "Welcome to the Bad Shatter Path Magic Shop, where we have as many potions as seawater, bundles of scrolls, overwhelming staffs, countless scepters, and every magic weapon you can imagine!" If you haven't found what you're looking for, we've got it for you in the Bad Shatter Path Magic Shop. ”

"We want to buy a handful of ......," the commandment covered his mouth.

"We want to see what's in store here, so tell us about it." Yichen said loudly to the ogre. He whispered to us, "Let's see." ”

Yichen first casually looked at the goods around him and made a picky look. However, he was never a good bargainer, and soon revealed that we were going to buy magic weapons.

The ogre shopkeeper enthusiastically points to the various magical weapons and introduces their characteristics and accompanying special abilities. The prices offered were very low, far exceeding our expectations. I could only hear us smile on our faces, although Yichen was still asking questions with a straight face, patiently listening to the explanation of the ogre shopkeeper, the corners of his mouth were a little uncontrollable.

However, I always felt that something was wrong.

Maybe it's the ogre shopkeeper's appearance that makes me wonder. Demon Blade City has quite a few ogre slaves, but the shopkeeper's appearance is somewhat different from the other ogres, with the same savage face, a protruding jaw, a row of thick black teeth, and long, unkempt hair. However, the body is more obese, and the skin tone is a peculiar light blue instead of the usual dark yellow to dark brown. There is also a pair of protruding milky white short horns on the forehead, which has never been seen before.

The magical items here all seem to have a layer of colorful magical light. It shouldn't be surprising, but the magic glow looks and feels the same, and I've always felt that magic weapons with a chill effect and a blazing effect should have a different magic glow.

"Everything in our Bad Path Magic Store is cheap and good, and you can't buy such cheap goods anywhere else. Look, this +2 dagger only sells for 2500 gold coins, and this +2 leather armor only costs 1500 gold coins, how about this +1 long sword? Comes with a blazing effect, which will cause additional fire damage when attacking, and will be sold to you cheaply for only 2000 gold! "The shopkeeper kept selling to Yichen.

"See that +1 blazing sword that the shopkeeper is selling?" I asked my cousin, "What do you look like?" ”

"The appearance looks the same as an ordinary long sword, with a faint red light on the sword." The cousin looked over there and said.

Red? No matter how I look at it, it's just as colorful as any other magic item, and there's a problem!

He leaned over and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Do you have a memorization? Take a look at the +1 Flaming Sword over there. "I said to the commandment.

The admonition was embarrassed and said, "To cast the identification technique, you need to prepare equipment and materials, and it will take a long time to cast the spell...... Do you suspect anything? It dawned on him, "Disguise aura? Even the first-level illusion that can be concealed by detection spells, then only the identification technique can see through it! ”

The bounty hunter who was standing on the side also heard it, thought for a moment and said, "If the valuation skill is high, you can see through the camouflage aura if you look closely, but I don't know who has learned this skill......"

I have a total of 7 levels of valuation skills, so I don't know if it's useful.

I walked over and took a closer look at the +1 Blazing Sword. 1 minute later, in my eyes, a price naturally appeared on the sword: 10 gold coins!

Valuation skills are not always accurate in estimating the value of an item, but if successful, the error can range from 50% to 150%.

"Damn!" I screamed, "It's a fake!" ”

The ogre shopkeeper's rambling sales pitch stopped all at once, and there was silence in the shop, and everyone turned to look at me.

……

"Roar!" The ogre shopkeeper roared, "You guys are here to make trouble!" "One punch and smash it into the dust closest to it!

Yichen barely dodged, but still hit his shoulder, and the whole person flew backwards, knocking down a shelf.

I drew my sword and rushed forward. The shopkeeper turned and held out a finger to me, and from its fingertips came a cone-shaped cold white mist, and I felt like I had been sucked away from the heat from my body, and I was frostbitten. This is a level 5 arcane ice pick!

Wrong! I haven't heard that ogres can cast spells, this guy is ...... Ogre Wizard! The dangerous creatures mentioned in the Bestiary, the most intelligent and dangerous subspecies of ogres! Not only are they as powerful and melee as other ogres, but they are also spell-like like and even more powerful than our dark elves, and Ice Pick is just one of them. What's more, ogre wizards also have "flying" supernatural abilities and the headache-inducing "regeneration" special ability.

At this moment, there was also a loud roar at the door of the store, and three ogres wielding huge wooden sticks rushed in!
