Chapter 1331: Search
The so-called alchemist's market is located in a neutral city called Kairamte in the center of the continent, in fact, this city is also the location of the Alchemist Guild, because the headquarters of the Alchemist Guild is here, so of course, the trading of alchemy materials is also carried out nearby, and over time, a market is naturally formed, of course, it was also standardized later, and an area was deliberately established, that is, the market that Old Ed said. The location of the market is not very far from the Alchemist Guild, that is, it is only about two streets apart, but if they don't know, Li Huailin and the others are probably still waiting in the Alchemist Guild. Fortunately, with the addition of Old Ed, it also saved a lot of time for the three of them.
The scale of the market is quite large, there are temporary stalls, there are also fixed stalls, in fact, Li Huailin also found some stalls opened by players, it seems that players who are subordinate to alchemy can also buy and sell things here. In general, the situation here is no different from the trading area of the main city, except that the items traded are all alchemy materials.
Old Ed is very familiar with this place, in fact, every alchemy master must be quite familiar with this place, otherwise where would you go to get materials. Although Old Ed rarely goes out, he has to come here once in three months, not only to buy materials, but also to sell the refined medicine to return some funds, otherwise he will only be able to get in and out, and Old Ed will have to drink the northwest wind a long time ago.
It seems that Old Ed's reputation is really high, because just walking here, a lot of people come up to greet him, and they all greet him, not Anthony's side, of course, this is originally a neutral city, not the jurisdiction of the Terran Empire, and Anthony is just an ordinary person here. However, the fact that he was not recognized was also slightly surprising to Anthony.
"The market is so big, where should I find it?" After walking for a while, Ravenna here still asked a little anxiously.
"Don't worry, girl, I'll leave this matter to me." Ed here said confidently, and the method he used was the simplest and most effective, that is, to ask someone.
"Ante. Are there any rare materials lately? I mean, the rare kind. Ed here casually found an uncle who looked in his fifties at a nearby stall and began to ask.
"Oh, old man, I'm here today, what's the matter, the research has hit a bottleneck?" This uncle named Ante also responded very enthusiastically that he would not do business.
"Yes, I can't find a clue about researching new drugs recently, and I want to try new materials, is there any news?" Ed asked, "Preferably the poisonous kind." Poison is the best, and it is rare. β
"Poisonous?" Ante's eyes flashed slightly when he heard this, "By the way, speaking of poison, I seem to have heard Lecter say something interesting before, old man, do you know the Gangara tribe?" β
"Gangara tribe?" The four of them spoke at the same time, startling Ante on this side.
"Oh, these are my apprentices." Ed here also reacted quickly. Said immediately, and immediately after speaking, he didn't wait for Ante to think about it. Asked again, "You're talking about the Gangara tribe?" The tribe that is famous for cultivating poisonous insects? β
"yes, that's it." An Yu nodded, "Didn't you say that you want to study poisonous things, old man?" The poison produced by the Gangala tribe is the most famous and rare, after all, not many people know about this tribe here. β
"I've also heard that the poison of this tribe is very rare, but unfortunately I haven't had the opportunity to get it." Ed also said. "How can it be said that there is poison from the Gangara tribe for sale recently?"
"That's where it's more interesting." Ante said with a smile, "I heard Lecter say that it is not the poison of the Gangara tribe that is being sold, but the people of the Gangara tribe. β
"People?" Ed also got up sternly, knowing that he had asked the target.
"Yes, I've heard that the people of the Gangara tribe are all good at cultivating poisons. It is estimated that someone has caught a few people from the Gangala tribe and is ready to sell, these people should not be in the regular way, and they are not people in our circle, it is estimated that they are illegal slave hunters, looking at the meaning of Lecter's kid, it is estimated that they are helping them spread the news. Ante frowned and said, "That kid also stuffed some money for me to help him get some news out, if the old man is not interested in this, I didn't say it." β
"No, no, no, I'm interested." Old Ed here immediately said, "The Lecter you are talking about is that long-haired boy Lecter from the south?" β
"Yes, that's him." Ann nodded.
"Okay, okay, I'll ask him." Old Ed nodded and said.
Sure enough, it was very smooth to have acquaintances, and soon after they arrived, they found a very important clue, needless to say, the four of them immediately went to Lecter's shop in the market over there. Lecter's shop pΓΉ is a very formal shop pΓΉ, which is completely different from the stall-like shop pΓΉ in Ante before, as soon as you enter the door, a waiter will come up to greet you.
"Come, tell your shopkeeper to come out to me." Ed was also completely unkind, and shouted as soon as he sat down on the chair next to him.
"It's coming, it's coming." Before Ed's words fell, a man in his thirties walked out of the shop, this is an NPC of the human race, very ordinary, the more conspicuous thing is the other party's hair, long hair, and it has not been tied up, it hangs directly on the shoulder, of course, the whole person looks quite decent, it will not make people feel strange. Li Huailin also confirmed the other party's name, and it did show Lecter.
"Master Stark, I didn't expect you to be here." Lecter here said with a smile to Ed.
"Uh-huh......" Ed nodded slightly, and then didn't talk nonsense, and immediately cut to the chase, "Kid Lecter, I heard that you have that mysterious Gangara tribe for sale here, is it true?" β
"Master Stark is interested?" Lecter was slightly stunned.
"Of course, I've been in need of rare materials lately, so of course I'm interested." Ed said immediately.
"I see." Lector is not surprised, after all, rare materials are more attractive to alchemists than gold, especially the mysterious Gangara tribe, or poison breeders sell, of course he also knows that it will cause crazy robbery, "Master Stark, you said this, in fact, I am also an intermediary here, where is the origin of this batch of goods......"
"I don't care where I come from, what about people?" Ed immediately interrupted, because he had already seen that Ravenna behind him was about to explode, after all, it was a great shame for his own people to be called "goods".
"Master Stark listened to me, and I said that I was just an intermediary, in fact, there were people who wanted to sell these goods, and then asked me to spread the news." "They are not from our circle, relying on their own goods, ready to make a fortune, borrowing my place to open an auction." β
"Auction?" Ed here frowned slightly.
"Yes, we don't do this here, but they are strange goods." Lecter said, "Anyway, Master Stark, if you want someone, tonight happens to be the first auction, I've already spread the news, there should be a lot of people to attend, if the master wants, he can only bring more money." β
"The first one?" Ed asked, "Is there still a lot of them?" β
"Yes, it's basically one a day, and it's been scheduled for half a month." Lecter said.
"They have so many people for sale?" Ed asked.
"yes, I think we might have brought back the entire Gangara tribe."
The "......" few people did not speak, because the goal had basically been determined.
"Huailin, it seems that there is no running here." Anthony pulled Li Huailin and whispered, "What now?" Going to an evening auction? β
"I already know the target, what auction will I participate in." Li Huailin said, "Come, let me come." β
After speaking, Li Huailin stood up directly and said to Lecter here: "Lecter shopkeeper is right?" β
"You ......"
"Oh, my name is Li Huailin, get to know me a little." Li Huailin also directly took Lecter's hand and said, "Lecter's shopkeeper, I have something here that I want to talk to you about a little, alone, you see ......"
"Huh?" Although it was a little strange, but after all, it was the person brought by Ed, Lecter didn't think about it so much, since he wanted to talk alone, Lecter pointed to a small room next to him, "Then please here." β
The two soon walked into the same room, and the three of Anthony stood outside waiting with inexplicable expressions, and then suddenly a muffled sound came from the room, startling them.
"Bang" again, and then Lecter's voice came out: "Good fight, this is too good ......"
"Fighting?" Anthony here was stunned for a moment, could it be that Li Huailin wanted to directly torture to extract a confession? Although Lecter is also a bastard, isn't it a little irrational for you to make a sudden move, this is still in someone's store.
"You two cover up, I'll go in and have a look." Anthony immediately said, there are other people in the store, noticing that this side is not good, Anthony said as he walked towards the door of the room, but just wanted to enter, the door on this side suddenly opened, and then Li Huailin pulled Lecter, who had basically been beaten to his knees, and walked out.
"Oh, good news, our Mr. Lecter has suddenly decided to abandon the darkness and help us willingly, isn't it?" Li Huailin asked.
"Of course." Lecter here said while spitting blood, "Your Excellency has the grace of reinvention for me, and I, Lecter, swear to die and will do my best to help you." β
Anthony: "......"
Ravenna: "......"
Ed: "......" (to be continued......)
