Chapter XXV. Transactions
In a public auction where too many people participate, many things are not suitable for sale, such as some things of unknown origin, so after the auction is over, Cummers will choose some trusted participants to make a more secret transaction.
Ron, donning a black robe and wearing a clown mask, joins the secret bargain.
The number of participants in this relatively secret transaction was far smaller than at the beginning, and Ron visually inspected it, there were about thirty people, all of whom were discreetly disguised.
Transactions here are also carried out in enclosed compartments, but the compartments here are far more secretive than those in the Hall of Plenty, not only blocking out sound and sight, but also protecting against witchcraft.
The person who sells the thing will first enter one of the compartments, and then write the thing for sale on the door, and the person who needs it will enter it and trade it alone.
Ron stopped at the door of a cubicle, and the sign on the door said that all kinds of rare alchemy materials were sold, which made him a little moved.
Placing a high bounty in the quest lobby is not used very often, as it will not only squeeze the benefits of the magic crystal, but also increase the price of other raw materials in the Nightmare Tower, and over time, other labs will protest.
Ron snapped the sign behind his head and told the others that there was a deal going on before entering the cubicle.
A black-robed man with a grimace mask sat in the cubicle, looking a little uneasy, and Ron walked over to his table and sat down.
"What materials do you have for sale. Ron asked directly.
Through the mask, Ron faintly smelled a rancid breath coming from the grimace man's body, and it was obvious that the other party was injured and could not be healed.
The grimace man glanced at Ron, did not speak, but took out a memory crystal from his arms, the memory crystal turned, and projections of one material after another appeared in front of Ron's eyes.
"Flower Demon Eyeball, Painful Blood, Sun Grass, Dark Stone Shard, Snake Letter Grass, ......"
Ron nodded, sure enough, they were all rare materials, and there were enough of them.
"I want them all, you make a price. ”
The grimace man seemed to be frightened by Ron's magnanimity, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "A thousand magic crystals." ”
"Five hundred magic crystals, and I'm going to see things first. Ron said lightly, "You can't be too greedy. ”
The price of a thousand magic crystals is more expensive than the bounty he put out, obviously treating him as a big wrong.
The grimace man was silent, he urgently needed a thousand magic crystals to survive the current crisis, otherwise he would not have ventured to the territory of Wolf's Heart Fort to participate in the Frost Moon Auction, before Ron came in, there were already a few people who came to trade, most of them just wanted to buy a few designated materials, and he refused, some of them were more out of the way, if it wasn't for the way of packaging and selling, this kind of scattered transaction would not be able to get rid of all the materials at all.
Not everyone is as wealthy as Ron.
And there are obviously not many people here who can take out so many magic crystals at one time.
Before this, the grimace man had also come into contact with Commers, but the price offered by Commers was only four hundred magic crystals, which was far lower than his expectations.
Four hundred magic crystals were not enough, and five hundred magic crystals were also not enough, but there were not many options left for him.
The grimace man gritted his teeth and took out a map from his arms, "With this map, there are a total of a thousand magic crystals." ”
"All of my materials were collected from this map. Probably afraid that Ron would refuse this transaction, the grimace man quickly explained, "I can guarantee that the collection points represented on this map are absolutely correct, and what I have collected is only a part of it, and there are many materials on it that I have not collected." ”
At Ron's request, the man showed the map.
This is not a hand-drawn map, but a three-dimensional map that integrates the memory witch array, the map is spread out, and a southern island area that has shrunk countless times appears in front of Ron, although some parts are missing, it is the most detailed map Ron has ever seen, but it does not mark the collection points that the other party said, obviously the other party left a back hand.
Even if the collection points were not marked, such an overall map of the southern island region would be worth no less than five hundred magic crystals in Ron's eyes.
The collection points marked are not as valuable as the map of this station, and it can be seen from the wounds on the grimace man that these materials are not so easy to collect, especially since these materials are scattered throughout the southern island, at least Ron does not dare to enter the realm of the Soul Trick House.
"Deal. ”
After checking the materials brought by the grimace man, Ron directly drew a thousand magic crystals from the magic crystal card to the other party's card, and this magic crystal can be used as long as it is within the influence of the Ash Council.
The man grimaced, and handed Ron the other engram that needed to be used together.
Ron silently took out the broken Void Egg and asked, "If you can tell me where you found it, I can give you a free bottle of recovery potion, and tell me that you need it." ”
"How do you know it's me?"
The grimace man blurted out, then gritted his teeth and said, "Damn, I knew that the people of the Commers family could not be trusted. ”
"You guessed it!"
Ron was overjoyed, it was originally just an evil and random temptation, but he didn't expect to really find the right master.
Of course, Ron didn't explain for the Cummers family, and after putting away the Void Egg fragments without changing his face, he took out a recovery potion.
"Do you know this unknown object?" asked the grimace man.
Ron shook his head, "I'm just curious. ”
Seeing that Ron was reluctant to say more, the man didn't mind, and after taking the recovery potion, he whispered, "This is what I found from a fisherman, and I don't know about the other big ones." ”
"From the Sea of Despair?"
This is the answer that Ron is most unwilling to hear, the sea here is not very friendly to humans, just look at the fact that no force is willing to build the headquarters on the seaside, the ocean is almost the default forbidden area of wizards, the specific reason is not even clear to the True Eye, the legend seems to be because the son of the abyss Dagon who rules the sea of despair is too powerful, and the domain awareness is extremely strong, any official professional entering the sea will be regarded as an invasion and be attacked, and over time the sea will become a forbidden area for all professionals.
Ron continued to wander around for a while, and when he found that there wasn't much of interest, he left.
Half an hour later, Ron also made an appointment with Morey Cummers, hoping to exchange some Nile rock python blood.
As Ron walked out of the trading floor, a young man stretched out his hand to block Ron's path and said in a tone that could not be refused, "Your Excellency Ron, His Highness Upton is waiting for you in the reception room. ”
Ron stopped, the True Eye swept over, and the man's message was revealed.
