Chapter 21: The Black Market
Just when Carl didn't know what to do, he suddenly saw several people in his sight who were constantly communicating fiercely.
Although the atmosphere and environment in the entire Blood Axe Bar are indeed extremely noisy, these people are extremely excited.
Carl subconsciously looked over to them, and sure enough, these people were at a table not far away, constantly exchanging something excitedly.
It's a pity that although Carl has the vision of a fire phoenix and can help him see more distant places, he doesn't have any way to increase his hearing.
Now, even if he used all the strength in his body, he wanted to distinguish as much as possible the content of the conversation between those people, but in the noisy and chaotic environment of the Blood Axe Bar, it was really difficult to distinguish any clear and complete sentences.
Despite his best efforts, Carl could barely catch a few words that were relatively clear, similar to those like the black market, magical, and alien insects.
So at this time, Carl also showed extra interest.
Could it be that in this forgotten city, can the so-called black market still appear Zeg Zerg? Treat that murderous insect as a commodity and circulate it on the black market? The inhabitants of the Forgotten City are still quite good at playing?
As Carl kept watching the interlocutors, they seemed to get more and more excited, and finally reached a consensus.
Several people looked happy to each other, and then after Carl's note, they made an appointment and walked towards the bar.
The moment they got up, Carl quickly withdrew his watchful gaze. He didn't want to let his deliberate snooping arouse the vigilance of these interlocutors.
Once they are easily alerted, there is no way for Karl to sneak behind them and see the so-called black market in the Forgotten City.
Carl had just withdrawn his watchful gaze when several of the interlocutors walked straight to the bar.
With a snap, one of them banged on the bar not far from Carl, and the bartender who had just left immediately leaned over to this side.
Originally, Carl thought that these people would have a drink in this Blood Axe Bar before going to the black market.
After all, in Carl's understanding, why would these people need to come to this bar if they didn't want to drink before heading to the black market?
To Carl's surprise, when the bar came to them, one of them, with a confident smile, made a strange gesture at the bartender.
When the bartender saw this gesture, he just snorted coldly and put down the wine glass that had been prepared for a long time in his hand.
The next moment, the bartender nodded with a cold expression and walked out of the bar.
After watching the bartender come out, these people also didn't dare to delay in the slightest, and followed the bartender together and walked towards the area inside the Blood Axe Bar.
Carl looked at the scene in front of him and slowly frowned, how could these guys, obviously going to the black market with medicine, behave so weirdly?
And obviously he was the bartender of the Blood Axe Bar, but at this time, he left his post without permission, but left directly with these people!
And judging from the expressions of these nearby guests, it seems that they have become accustomed to the bartender leaving his post without permission......
Thinking of this, Carl's mind flashed, and he instantly understood.
"Oh no, why didn't I think of it...... This bartender may be their 'guide' to the black market, which is why those guys have to be led by the bartender to get to the black market......"
"It's just ......," Carl thought silently as he left the bar.
Why enter the black market and still need to be led by the bartender at the Blood Axe Bar? It seems that this Blood Axe Bar is not a simple existence in the Forgotten City!
Looking at the still noisy Blood Axe Bar, Carl fixed his eyes and could vaguely see the backs of the bartender and those people.
In his heart, Carl chased after them quickly. Although this kind of tailgating behavior is not too correct, for a while, Carl is very interested in the black market in the Forgotten City, so he chooses to follow.
Fortunately, the environment in this blood axe bar is relatively dim, especially the deeper you go, the lighting conditions of the light source in it are extremely poor.
With the cover of this environment, Carl naturally followed behind those people very smoothly at this time, and did not have to worry that his tracking behavior would be discovered by them.
Especially Carl has just completed some investigations on them, and has basically confirmed the identity of the other party as a group of ordinary people.
In this way, it is completely impossible for them to find Carl who is following behind.
In this way, they walked in front, and Karl followed closely behind, step by step, and in a few moments, they were all in the depths of the Blood Axe Bar.
Looking at the dimly lit hallway beside him, Carl felt more and more strange at this moment.
Originally, on the streets of the Forgotten City, Carl didn't realize that the area of this Blood Axe Bar was so huge.
Although most of the people who entered the Blood Axe Bar were gathered in the hall in front of the Blood Axe Bar, as for the internal area of the Blood Axe Bar, it could really be called inaccessible.
Just as Carl was still wondering, the people in front of him stopped in place. Then the bartender, who had been leading the way, slowly walked to the front at this time.
At this time, the bartender knocked on a door directly, fortunately Carl has maintained his fire phoenix vision, otherwise, in this dark environment, if this door is not knocked by the bartender, it may be directly ignored by Carl.
After the bartender knocked on the door, it was soon opened from the other side by the people inside.
It's just that after the door was opened, the people inside only opened a small gap, he swept past several people in front of the door, and then looked at the bartender and asked, "Password?" ”
When the bartender heard the man's inquiry, he still kept an indifferent expression, and then replied, "Colt! ”
After the person inside heard the password, he slowly opened the door completely, and the bartender said indifferently at this time: "Go in, he will take you to the black market!" ”
With that, the bartender began to walk towards the lobby of the Bloodaxe Bar, while the others, led by the man inside, began to walk towards the area behind the door.
Karl hid in the shadows on the side, skilfully dodging the returning bartender, and then looked intently at the few people in front of him.
Although he had clearly heard the pass just now, it was obvious that without the bartender's guidance, even if Carl forced to knock on the door, not only would he not be able to pass through the door smoothly, but it would even arouse the alarm of the people inside.
Therefore, in order to be able to enter the black market smoothly, the opportunity that Carl can grasp is only for a moment......
When the group had all entered, the man behind the door casually pushed the door outside.
Because he didn't push the door too hard, at this time, the door was just slowly approaching this side at an extremely slow pace.
It was in this situation that Carl keenly seized the opportunity to sneak in smoothly!
With a bang, he quickly came to the door, and when the other party was about to fasten the deadbolt, Carl's palm gently slapped on the door.
With a slight effort, the door was bolted at the last moment, and Carl successfully stopped it.
After waiting quietly for two seconds to make sure that no one was behind the door, Carl slowly pushed open the door and walked in quietly.
Pushing the door back open, Carl was surprised to find that what appeared in front of him was a secluded corridor.
At the end of the hallway, there was a bright glow and a lively human voice. Carl only heard about it for a while, and he definitely felt that behind the end of the corridor must be the black market of the Forgotten City!
After confirming the location of the surrounding people with the fire phoenix vision, after making sure that no one was paying attention to the corridor, Carl left the secluded corridor in three steps and two steps.
As soon as he left the hallway, Carl was immediately shocked by the sight in front of him.
It's the black market of the Forgotten City, but it's more of a big bazaar! Judging from the area of the bazaar that Carl could see in front of him, I am afraid that it is one-third the size of the Forgotten City......
The dignified black market can still occupy such a large area, maybe this is the characteristic of the Forgotten City!
And compared to the streets of the Forgotten City, the black market scene here is more prosperous.
All kinds of goods were displayed in the black market by different stalls, and at this time, Carl also clearly discovered that the entrance and exit of the black market was not only the passage of the Blood Axe Bar.
Because at the same time, there are many people who are constantly entering and leaving this black market from all directions.
"If I knew there were other entrances, I wouldn't have had to make such a big effort to enter through the passage of the Blood Axe Bar." Carl smiled wryly, shook his head, and continued to walk into the black market.
Carl was about to appreciate what kind of magical items were in this black market, but when he glanced at them, he saw the people who had just appeared!
At this time, Karl naturally had no second choice, and followed them closely...... After all, no matter how magical other things are, they are not as important as Zeg Zerg!
