Chapter 29: The Black Market
If Sophie and the cuttlefish were asking for a sky-high price, Jon might be a little more at ease, but the condition offered by the two was almost to send the sea chart white to Mavis in her arms, and the middle-aged knight couldn't help but glance at the pair of noble siblings, could it be that the other party was entertaining himself?
"It's as simple as that." Sophie replied, feeling a little helpless, if Alcatraz gave them a year to prepare, he might be able to grit his teeth and fight with the scarlet fish, but the reality is that the two have to return to Alcatraz Island with three months left, the sea area drawn on the chart only accounts for a very small part of the Witcher Islands, and they have to find a professional old navigator to correct and make up for it, and it is also unreliable to use a small boat to hunt for treasure across the Witcher Islands, large ships and sailors, navigators, these all need to take a lot of time to prepare.
"I agreed to your conditions!"
Jon was still hesitating, and Mayvis, who had been sitting next to him, suddenly spoke, and the courage and perseverance revealed in her beautiful blue eyes made Jon a little distracted for a while.
Sophie and the Cuttlefish glanced at each other, vaguely understanding why Alcatraz would set up the task of "the successor of the Pirate King", Mavis has this potential, in fact, she should have guessed a long time ago, a noble girl who has enjoyed the life of a superior person since she was a child suddenly had a family change and fled in the Witcher Islands for a long time, but she didn't even complain, even if she had the protection and care of Jon and others, it was enough to see that Mavis had an unusual heart.
Mayvis also had the courage to order Jon to take out most of the gold coins he was carrying, and the four heavy money bags contained three hundred gold coins, which was an unimaginable and amazing wealth in the eyes of most people, but it was only a considerable fortune for Mayvis who was going to inherit an earl, and if it wasn't for the haste of escaping, Jon could even dispatch thousands of gold coins of liquidity.
"Miss Mayvis, isn't she afraid that my brother and I will run away with the money?" The cuttlefish looked at the money bags neatly placed on the table, raised an eyebrow and asked.
"It's just a gambler's mentality, and I'm sure you're not the kind of villain who doesn't keep his word." Mavis raised her head and replied generously, the slightly curly golden length swayed slightly in the candlelight, with the beautiful and small facial features and big and charming eyes, like a delicate doll.
Sooner or later, the money will have to be spent, it is better to use it for the last fight, losing is just a waste of a few months, and if she wins, she can completely turn over, there is no reason why she should not gamble.
"I also believe that your choice will be worthy of this trust." The cuttlefish looked at Mavis deeply, and Sophie put away the four money bags and opened the door to leave, as for the chart that only a quarter was left, the two of them naturally couldn't hand it over to Mavis immediately, the other party was worried about the authenticity of the chart, Sophie and the scarlet fish were not worried that Mavis and his party would slip away after taking the chart.
Back to the room.
Sophie threw the heavy money bag on the bed casually, pointed to the tracksuit of the cuttlefish, and asked, "Do you want to help you change your clothes tomorrow?" ”
The white and clean sportswear on the girl's body has long been worn, even if it will be taken off and washed in heavy rain, but there are no decontamination products such as washing powder, it is inevitable that it will leave some traces, and there are cuts on the sleeves that are cut by a scimitar.
"No need." The cuttle fish shook her head and refused, this sportswear was just right for her activities, and she was really insensitive to those female aristocratic clothes who wore cumbersome clothes.
"Where is the black market, have you asked clearly?"
"I asked by the way when I ordered dinner just now, and the waiter promised five silver coins to take us to the black market to enter the door." Sophie smiled lightly, the waiter brother is very rich, the merchants who come to Indaro for the first time want to go to the black market or ask for some information, they probably have to spend money to find them, but pirates and adventurers have their own ways, plus there are many inns in Indarro, it is estimated that this kind of leading business can not be done several times a year.
The cuttlefish sat on the bed and swayed a pair of slender legs, tilted his head and said, "I hope I can gain something tomorrow." ”
Obviously, the meager loot looted on the adventurer today made her a little depressed.
Sophie took out the swordsmanship and spread it out and re-studied it, and replied casually: "Old rule, I will come in the first half of the night tonight, and I will return to you in the second half of the night." ”
The cuttlefish snorted.
Sophie felt that he was not a terrifying genius cultivator like his sister Su Ruozi, and many advanced skills could not be learned by preaching once, not to mention that he was just holding a book of swordsmanship experience and refining it by himself, and he was able to thoroughly understand the basic swordsmanship taught by Jon in two or three days, all because he had a good foundation and more than ten years of cultivation experience as support.
If the cuttlefish knew Sophie's thoughts, he would probably sneer, he cultivated to such a realm at the age of less than twenty, and even said that he was poorly talented, then I don't know how many cultivators in the world would cry and faint in the toilet.
But in fact, Sophie does lack the self-confidence and pride of being a genius practitioner, from childhood to adulthood, whether it is practicing Kundalini Yoga or learning family assassination skills, her sister Su Ruozi has hardly encountered any shackles and setbacks, and last year she directly broke through the realm of the third chakra, and over time, Sophie subconsciously gave birth to a kind of mediocre cognition of her own talent, which is also the reason why Sophie has seen too few practitioners, and his grandfather saw it in his eyes but did not break it for some reason.
Early in the morning of the second day.
The practitioner's routine made Sophie wake up early without the call of the red fish, and the two of them finished breakfast cleanly, and under the guidance of the waiter's brother, they arrived at the only black market in the harbor city of Indarro.
The black market sounds like a small bazaar used to do shady transactions, and of course it is indeed a place to sell black goods, but behind Indarro's black market stands the blood elves, they don't care about the hypocritical reputation maintained on the surface of the human aristocratic territory.
Sophie pulled out five silver coins and knocked the waiter away, walking side by side with the cuttlefish inside.
The four burly, leather-clad guards did not come forward to ask when they saw this pair of young men and women, after all, the appearance characteristics of Sophie and Scarlet Fish were too obvious, black eyes, some peculiar clothes, and handsome and beautiful, it must be the aristocratic brothers and sisters who wiped out the group of unlucky adventurers yesterday, some merchants, adventurers, and pirates who came in and out of the black market peeked at the two with curious and amazing eyes, but thinking of the rumored amazing strength of the two, they were very interested and did not dare to come forward to harass.
So in this wonderful atmosphere, the two walked into the black market.
