Chapter 776: Trading Market Plane (Part I)

"Could it be that this is copper ore?" Leo said, "I went, and I thought it was a plant!" ”

I said, "Failed? ”

Leo said: "What do you think, hurry up and record it, and you will come here to mine when you engage in industry in the future!" ”

I hurriedly flipped the broken crystal of the stars, marked this seat, and asked uneasily, "What should I do if someone else finds it?" Do you want to lock this plane down? ”

"Not for the time being," Leo said, "it's not cost-effective to blockade, and no one else may be able to touch it anyway, and if they do, they don't feel that there is anything precious, after all, copper ore is only useful to humans, and magicians don't think much of it." ”

"Okay then." I say.

Then, the first plane exploration ended.

Choosing one of the hundreds of points of light is like betting on a lottery draw.

"The result?" Taling asked.

I said, "I didn't find it, but I came across a plane worth studying." ”

"So you wasted a Star Fragment?" Taling asked.

"It's not a waste," I said, "I'll go there later." ”

"If you're interested, you can make a mark," said Taling, "and when you find out, you can make it public, so that more people can study it." ”

I said, "There's no rush ahead of me, and at this rate, I can do it five more times, so go on......"

After five fruitless explorations, I found only one broken plane inhabited by a few earth elemental creatures.

Without making a record, the Star Fragments still consumed a few, but after two or three explorations, the Star Fragments ran out of energy and turned into powder.

At this cost, twelve Star Fragments can support about thirty-six explorations when they find nothing.

After six times, when I had lost more than half of my energy, I sat down and drank some potions to recover, during which several waves of people came in and out through the portal, and when they saw me, they all said hello, and no one came to ask me in detail.

After recovering, I started exploring again.

Good luck seems to run out the first time.

After more than twenty times, nothing was found.

When there were still two left, I found a plane rich in iron ore and made a mark, but because the Star Fragment had been used, the recording time of the coordinates was seriously shortened, and Leo insisted on keeping the iron ore plane, so I transferred the coordinates to the last one.

At this time, it was already afternoon.

Twelve Star Fragments, in exchange for two ore planes that are not yet usable.

"What are your plans now?" Taling asked.

I took out the raw meat from the Sumeru ring and handed it to the Tyrannosaurus rex and said, "What else can I do?" Go to the market and buy a few more ......"

"Aren't you going back to the house?" Taling asked.

I looked at the simulated sky and said, "It's a good idea to visit the famous trading market before dark." ”

I walked over to another portal and walked through it.

Inside is a floating island about the shape of a small hill.

One, a floating island larger than Santas.

I'm standing on the edge of a floating island, next to the Endless Void.

"Supposedly, the center of gravity should be in the center of the floating island, isn't it?" Leo said.

"Or, underneath is actually an incomparably large entity, providing a large enough gravitational force." I said, "But then the buoyancy required to float on the floating island is a huge energy expenditure." ”

"Don't worry about that," Leo said, "and get acquainted with the situation here. ”

The edge of the entire floating island is actually an entrance, and I saw a lot of people appearing out of thin air from the edge.

However, when these people saw me, their faces were a little strange.

"I almost forgot, this is outside of Santas!" Leo said, "Be careful! ”

"Yes." I nodded, soothing the Tyrannosaurus rex on my shoulder.

A human in armor walked up and asked, "Is it a guest from Santas?" ”

I said, "Yes." ”

The human said, "It is better to go to your shops, and do not linger too long here, we dare not guarantee your safety." ”

Several humans in the same costume looked over to this side, and someone muttered, "Santas is here?" Orcs also wear robes? Others said, "Don't talk too much......"

I asked the armored human in front of me, "What are the rules here?" ”

The man said, "Go to your own shop as I say, and don't run around." ”

His tone was very impatient, it seemed that Santas was really not very popular here.

I asked for the location of Santas's shop, and walked over, and the road was almost all human-based, with the occasional elves and orcs, or other races, not only rare, but also in a somewhat awkward situation.

Except for goblins.

After all, goblin merchants have traveled all over the world, and no matter how much humans look down on them, they will still deal with them.

The pattern here is very large, but the houses are dominated by human size, and the prosperity is enough, but the houses are small.

I walked over to Santas's shop, and Borg greeted me.

"You used up the twelve Star Fragments so quickly?" Borg said, "Why didn't you say it sooner?" We're not prepared on our side! ”

I said, "I thought this was a place to trade......

Borg said: "This place is dominated by humans, other races can only come, they do not guarantee safety and fairness, Santas's affairs, except for us goblins, are all guarded by humans." ”

I said, "I'm not well prepared for that." ”

"Are you going on an adventure, or are you going to buy Star Chips?" Borg said, "I can give you three thousand gold coins now, which is probably enough to buy about ten, and it seems that your gain is not very large......"

I said, "Don't worry, the amount I need is a bit much, you can take your time if you can't get it together, three months, you arrange it slowly, I still want to do some plane adventure missions." ”

Borg said: "To do the task, you have to go to the mercenary union, however, it is better for humans to take the lead, and you are a subordinate." ”

I was a little upset: "What? Isn't it about strength? ”

Borg smiled bitterly: "Human prejudice, you haven't been taught, they think that orcs don't have enough brains, and they won't use the return teleportation after completing the mission, and a lot of resources are wasted, so it is stipulated that the leader must be a human or an elf." ”

I said, "So the mainstream human magicians really think so?" ”

Borg said: "We have special personnel arrangements, you just go along, rest assured, we will not engage in discrimination and exploitation within ourselves, all the benefits are yours." ”

I said, "It's really unpleasant to compromise like this......

"No way," said Borg, "Santas also needs to communicate with other mage towers, and he can't close himself off, he is just waiting for death to do so." ”

"Be wise, compromise, that's all you can do," I said, "but I just want to see it now, and in that case, I won't look at it, buy a few Star Fragments, and then venture out tomorrow when I'm out of them." ”

Borg said, "Okay, I'll have someone take you, and the money will be on him......

He called in a human magician, who was very respectful to me, but I still had to be behind him, acting as a "bodyguard" or "subordinate".

As soon as he left the store, he said a little apologetically: "Your Excellency Bihong is here for the first time, please bear with me, if there is anything to do, don't take the initiative to speak, leave it to me to deal with it, okay?" ”

I said, "Yes, but I want to ask, haven't you thought about changing it?" ”

The human smiled bitterly: "No way, Santas's power is too small, if it weren't for our good relationship with some extraterrestrial organizations, the Human Mage Alliance wouldn't even accept us." ”

I said, "Heterogeneous tissues? What tissues are from heterotopes? ”

The human said: "There is a human and elf mixed with the Elf Federation, living in the forest plane, they are not very good with the elves of the main plane, but they have a good relationship with humans, and they also have some connections with our Santas, and they have nearly 20,000 magicians, and one-third of the residents are magicians, so the human side does not dare not give face, and there are also some ancient orc tribes in the wasteland plane, including the Aura Cow Man, the Carthian Cattle Man and other races, and even the Yuan King of the Four Elemental Planes." ”

"Elemental King?" I wondered, "Elemental creatures have their own powers?" ”

The human said: "The most powerful creature of elemental creatures is like a high-level magical beast in the main plane, and the territory they grasp is particularly large, and their wisdom is also very high, if they don't agree, some elemental creatures of higher rank will not even accept the call of the main plane." ”

I was stunned for a moment: "In other words, the various elemental creatures we summoned were agreed by them?" ”

The human said, "Yes, and besides, the second sage of our Santas is a powerful summoner, and he has a good relationship with both the fire elemental and the wind elemental king, so the core of Santas's energy is dominated by the fire and wind systems......"

I remembered the long river of magma in the energy core area, a dark cliff full of wind elements, and suddenly understood.

The human continued: "The plane of the trading market is the transit area of all forces, and it can be regarded as a buffer zone between the main plane and the heteroplane, various forces are intertwined with each other, although our Santas is relatively different in the main plane, but here it is just an ordinary small organization, because of the recognition of these heterographic forces, the Human Mage Alliance will accept us, however, they are still more willing to deal with humans...... Also, Lord Otto's Chamber of Commerce also has a certain relationship, after all, goblins have business dealings with various races, and with him, Santas's business is also slightly easier. ”

"Yes," I said, "thank you for explaining, I don't know your name yet......"

The humans said, "Captain Jack Spallo." ”

I wondered, "You were a captain at sea?" Why is there such a title? ”
