Chapter 39 Fair Trade
Hearing Rupee's inquiry, Tiger smiled.
That's what he was waiting for.
"I do have some interest in this knife. "It's not surprising that curse-enchanted weapons abound. But weapons with cursed spirits are a bit rare. Although it is said that killing the enemy is the victory, in fact, the former is better used. But...... If I had to draw my own sword, maybe it would be more reliable to wipe. ”
He pondered for a moment and said, "This thing is a nice decoration, and you can use it to talk about when friends get together." ”
It was so mad that if you heard it on a normal day, both the guy and the rupee would have laughed at it. But the noble temperament of "Mr. Locke" makes this statement seem taken for granted.
It's like a sentence "I'm so poor that I have money left", when ordinary people say it, and billionaires say it, it feels like it's completely useless.
Seeing that Mr. Locke was willing to buy the unlucky knife, Ruby immediately smiled.
He was a little worried, worried that the knife would not be sold, but now it seems that Tom's family is still lucky, and his own luck is not bad.
"Do you want money or anything else?" asked the tiger.
Ruby was about to answer "money", but changed his mind in a flash.
"Is there anything you can bring to Tom's family conveniently?" he asked, tentatively, a little uneasily.
Lightweight little things are small equipment in the jewelry category. What can be equivalent to this knife is, of course, magic equipment.
Among the magic equipment, the jewelry category is the rarest. They are easy to carry and not easy to spot. Wearing one often has the effect of reversing the victory or defeat at a critical moment. Even the most common and rotten street defense ring is worth as much as an ordinary full-body armor.
Of course, in Mr. Locke's capacity, what he can take out will definitely not be a defensive ring or anything like that - a big man like this must carry a fine product with him, and any one given is worth cherishing for an adventurer like Rupee.
He was just a little worried, lest Mr. Locke think he was a lion with a big mouth.
But this request played into the hands of the tiger - if the rupee asked him for a large sum of money, he really couldn't get it.
"Little things, ornaments, etc., hehe, this knife is also an ornament to me, and it makes sense to exchange ornaments for ornaments. ”
He pretended to think for a while, and then took out a beautifully made pendant, this pendant was made of sterling silver brushing, and made a hollowed-out ball, inside was a citrine, and the wonderful thing was that the citrine was supposed to be not glowing, but this citrine emitted a faint golden light.
"It's a 'pendant of fortune', which makes it easier for people to get rich - of course, the effect is limited, and if you want to wear it to the casino, it will definitely be the result of losing all your money. "I made a bet with a friend to choose the most valuable one out of twelve magic pendants." Then he used this to pretend to be the 'blessing of the god of wealth' and lost a good horse. ”
"In terms of value, this thing is actually worse than that knife. But if you want to bring it to Tom's family, this one is better than those. ”
Ruby and his buddy nodded in unison - for ordinary people, magical equipment that is too precious can only cause trouble, but it is this kind of thing that can slightly increase their fortune is the most valuable to them.
Looking at this glittering pendant, Rupee's eyes lit up.
This kind of thing is valuable to ordinary people, and even more valuable to adventurers!
What are you going out for? Isn't it just for money! Something that can improve your financial fortune, even if it is only a little better, is excellent!
He looked at the pendant with burning eyes, but instead of agreeing immediately, he looked at the man again.
Each row has its own rules, and the same goes for the shops for adventurers.
The man was secretly bitter by his eyes, but the rules of the trade must be fulfilled after all, and he sighed in his heart, and said cautiously: "Mr. Locke, Ruby, if you have no objection to this deal, please let me verify your respective things and testify." ”
This is one of the rules of the Adventurer's Shop, in order to avoid shoddy and the like, whenever the transaction is made in the store, the store will help verify the goods of both parties - of course, this verification is very rough, just to check the strength of each other's enchantment. More advanced and professional verification costs too much, and even if they can provide it, adventurers are generally reluctant to accept it.
Hearing this, Ruby breathed a sigh of relief, but the tiger looked at them with a smirk.
The two of them were uneasy to see, and when the man's legs trembled slightly, he finally heard Mr. Locke's reply: "Yes, no problem." ”
Inside the shop there is equipment to check the strength of the enchantment, which is a magic circle made of metal, with a crystal pillar in the center. As long as the magic array is placed on top of the enchanted equipment, the crystal pillar will sense the enchantment strength of the equipment and emit the corresponding light.
The first to be tested was the Cursed Knife, which was measured to have a somewhat dim glow - it wasn't really a particularly powerful enchanted weapon, as the curse wasn't really complete yet.
What is interesting is that in the green light on the crystal pillar, there is a faint wisp of bright red like blood. Although it was vaguely fleeting, a few people who had been prepared for it for a long time still saw it clearly.
"Sure enough, it's a curse weapon!" the man's voice trembled slightly, and he hurriedly returned the knife to the rupee, refusing to take even a second longer, lest he get a curse.
Ruby held the knife with a wry smile on his face.
The next thing to be tested was the pendant, the crystal pillar shining much brighter than the knife. However, the inside and outside are divided into two layers, the inner layer is a golden light that makes people feel comfortable when they look at it, and beyond this golden light, there are many brilliant golden lines that continue to rotate, as if they are wrapped inside.
"The inner layer is probably for health or luck wishes, and the outer layer is for wealth. The man said, "I guess the inner layer is a blessing of luck, if it weren't for that, it would be impossible to fool Mr. Locke." ”
"You're right, it's easy to confuse a blessing of luck with a blessing of wealth. Especially when misled by the blessing of outer wealth, it is easy to mistake this pendant for a blessing of wealth. The tiger said lightly, "This kind of strength of wealth blessing is, of course, the level of 'blessing of the god of wealth'." I was not wronged to lose a good horse because of this. ”
"Mr. Locke, I would like to remind you that your pendant is more advanced than Rupee's knife in terms of enchantment strength. The guy said, "You should ask him to pay the difference." ”
The tiger smiled and shook his head: "For me, enchanted equipment at this level is of little value. What I'm interested in is their collectible value - this knife doesn't have a high level of enchantment, but it's collectible, so overall, I don't suffer a loss. ”
In that case, the deal is set up. With the cursed short knife, the tiger walked out leisurely, only walked around a street corner, and then disappeared without a trace, leaving the few adventurers who had wanted to keep an eye on him stunned, and it took a long time to come back to his senses.
"Is this stealth?"
"Or just teleport away......"
Between everyone's mouths, no one noticed that in the shadows in the corners, there was a faint flow of black.
