Chapter 130: Hunting (I)
It was getting late, and the sunset spread across half of the sky, and the silky staircase clouds seemed to be on fire, slowly moving from the north sky to the west, and the orange-yellow clouds gradually transitioned to a gloomy black.
In the small two-storey wooden building, the crystal lights hanging from the roof emit a pale golden light. The golden light illuminated most of the room, and many people in the living room were busy preparing for dinner, and since Grant had set up a territory, Albert and the scavenger had an extra day to stay, so they simply celebrated this time to get a viscount-level territory.
The square table is filled with a lot of food, from the top of the table to the end of the table. On both sides, Corion, Emile, Hyland and the others were all dressed in dresses or long tunics, and each of them was perfectly groomed and sat on a chair with a knife in his hand.
"Grant, you have done the Hanmo family a great favor this time, I thank you on behalf of the Hanmo family, if it weren't for you, our family might have been buried."
Albert, dressed in a black aristocratic attire, curled the corners of his lips slightly, and he raised a glass of wine to express his gratitude to Grant.
"It's just a small thing, I'm not very good at drinking, so I'll skip this wine."
Grant is dressed in a wide black robe, his short flaxen hair is tidied up, with strong mental strength and the factor of exercising all the time, he is a little handsome, and if he wears a noble title, he will definitely become the dream lover of another girl in the Mars Empire.
The scavenger was in a good mood and said, "Grant, just have a drink." Anyway, with your current strength, you won't faint at all if you drink a glass of wine, you must know that the high mental power is very precise in manipulating the body, and you speed up the dilution of body alcohol. Nature quickly sobered up. ”
Grant shrugged helplessly and glanced down at the red wine that looked like blood. After picking up the wine glass and saluting everyone around him, he raised his head and drank it all. Boom popped down his throat.
Unlike the red wine of the earth, the red wine in the world of glory is somewhat close to the taste of white wine, and as soon as it enters the throat, a hot sensation spreads throughout the body, and the alcohol begins to erode and paralyze the blood vessels and nerves in the limbs.
"Accelerates the metabolism of the kidneys!" Grant simulates his body on the retina through the lens in his mind, and after confirming his physical condition, he urges the kidneys to accelerate the decomposition and detoxification function. After a few seconds, the flush on his face faded and his mind cleared up.
"Come on. Let's dine. Albert waved his hand and motioned for the people around him to eat.
Grant's calm face was relieved, he had already prepared to catch the half-dragon man after the dinner, since he could only move at night in the city, it was just after dinner.
An hour later, the lively dinner ended, and most of the people left the table to go about their tasks.
In the study room of the small building, the mahogany bookshelves along the walls are scattered with a few geography books or troubadours written by bards. Because no one has lived there for a long time, there are very few books on the shelves.
A bronze oil lamp is parked on the left side of the desk, and the light illuminates most of the room, and an old man in a white robe is flipping through a book on mage theory. The thick black cowhide cover also bears his name - Qi Ling. Nerio.
"Bang! Bang! ”
The wooden door seemed to crack at any moment, and a layer of gray dust shook off the corner of the roof.
The old man's golden blue eyes looked at the wooden door, and there was a slight doubt on his wrinkled face. He asked, "Who is looking for me?" ”
"It's me, Scavenger Mage." Grant said respectfully.
"Come in." The scavenger closes the book. Place it on the edge of the table.
Grant obediently walked in and walked a few steps to the scavenger's side. Hold close to his ear and say your request.
…………
Half an hour, outside the estate.
"Whew, that's really troublesome. In a place where mages are scarce, there are even very few options for exchanging spells, but fortunately, my role now is much more important than that of Wanghuo City, even if he has some doubts, it will not affect much. ”
On a gray street, under the lit street lamp, there was a black-robed figure, and he muttered to himself before thinking about his next goal.
Because it is necessary to be careful in capturing the half-dragon man Rafi, it is set at night when civilians are scarce, in order not to attract the attention of the people next to him, he needs a silence spell used by the war elves, and Grant exchanges a primary silence enchantment with the scavenger through the resources in his hand.
Grant had spent half an hour, analyzing his skills and trying to chant a few spell syllables, and had memorized the spell with basic proficiency. After finally getting some small details done, we walked to the area south of Briss, where the half-dragon man Reyfi temporarily took refuge - Weightfang City.
The City of Weights is the largest underground trading point in Briss City, which involves a variety of transactions involving prostitutes, weapons, illusion dust, hired killings, knightly land deeds, and more. Among them, the rear of the square market also includes a small number of slum empty areas, and large slave urban areas, gambling circles, etc.
There are a lot of fish and dragons, and the forces are so intertwined that no one can tell how many there are. Even Melio selectively ignores its existence, or rather, he has a force in charge of some of its operations.
When Grant arrived at Weights, it was dark, and the sky was shining with stars at night.
"Come here and take a look, the two-handed giant sword and the Zozi armor of excellent quality, only thirteen gold coins will be taken back."
"This set of knight's combat equipment is very cheap, do you have anything to buy?"
"Sell a compound bow of very good quality, does anyone want it?"
Along the way, there were mercenaries in shabby armor sitting in stalls on either side, selling their goods in the hope that someone would buy them. It's just that very few people stay here to buy, and most people just glance at it and walk to the tavern or hotel to find some nice prostitutes to spend the night with.
Even those who want to buy weapons mostly go to the auction house because they know that there is nothing good on the stall.
A black-robed figure walked down the street, without making a sound, as he swept through the various buildings lined up on both sides, among which many prostitutes were reaching out to pull the mercenaries on the street into the room. He didn't pay attention after a glance, and after walking for a while, he suddenly stopped and squatted next to a stall.
"How much is this arm-long piece of black metal, I can use it as an embryo for refining a thin sword." A deep, thick voice came from the mouth of the black-robed man, who covered his face with a hood, and did not distinguish his appearance at all, but it was not strange that people in black coats abound in the black market.
The mercenary at the stall was originally very excited, but when he saw the other party asking about this piece of metal, his interest decreased a lot, and he tried to say in a more polite tone: "This piece of black metal was found by me on a mission from a canyon walkway. Judging by its hardness, it is more difficult than ordinary iron, so it is really good to use it to refine weapons. If you like, take eight silver coins. ”
"Eight silver coins, metal three times as big as you are worth that." The black-robed man shook his head and bargained with an impatient tone: "Five silver coins, if you don't sell me, I'll leave." ”
"Five silver coins, that's too little. If you don't want to add a little more, just add a little more and I'll sell it to you. ”
"Five silver coins and two copper coins." The hacker added.
When the mercenary heard this, three black lines appeared in his head, and he looked at the black-robed man in front of him speechlessly, and he could really say two copper coins.
After some haggling, it was finally sold for five silver coins and four copper coins.
The black-robed man grasped the pitch-black metal block and gradually disappeared into the street.
When he reached the corner of a dark alley, the black-robed man revealed his original appearance, with long flaxen hair and jet-black eyes. He had just passed by the stall and noticed that the stone in his hand seemed to be the Black Primordial Stone, a kind of demonic metal used to refine enchanted items.
In terms of real value, it is equivalent to more than two hundred gold coins. (To be continued.) )
