Chapter 36: The Black Market 2
"Remember ......"
Walking down the stairs, Sam Ray Hiccup said two last words, and then he joined the wave of hooded robes with the Iron Fist adventure party.
As Green agreed at the Five Pots Liquor Hotel, Sam Ray Hiccup swam like a fish in the river and suddenly burrowed into a crevice in a rock, and the Iron Fist adventure party followed him into a potion shop that he had only discovered.
"The elegance of a cat, the power of a bull, the treatment of minor injuries, the treatment of minor injuries......"
The soft fabric roof swayed in the cyclone brought by the flow of people, and slender test tubes were placed on wooden shelves at the edge of the stone pillars, on which different animals and symbols were painted with abstract paint.
Of course, there are also shops selling alchemical potions in the market area of Ascatatra, but the items in the black market are much cheaper than those of the regular merchants under the protection of the goddess Wolkin, and there are occasionally some good goods that cannot be bought in the regular market.
"Detect evil!"
With a little surprise, Green removed the only tube with a faint light from the shelf, and took the variety that had been recorded on the scroll letter, and put it on a small wooden shelf full of round holes for the potion, and returned to the store. Then he pulled out a [pearl].
"Deal!"
The various test tubes on the wooden shelves are marked with numbers underneath, which are the price of the potion, and the units are unified into the denta, which is the gold coin of the Am's currency.
At this moment, the price of the potions on the small wooden shelf in Green's hand had exceeded one [pearl], but the seller obviously had a good relationship with Sam Ray Hiccup, and he raised his hand to make an OK gesture to confirm that the deal was completed.
And all the while, as Sam explained, neither the buyer nor the seller spoke.
"Tread, tread, stride, stride!"
Handed over the potion to Ike Flod, the Iron Fist team once again merged into the crowd, their procurement task today is still relatively heavy, after all, they need to face a lich, a legendary undead creature with advanced spell-casting ability, and this is a lich who has joined the Rune Society, and he doesn't know how many traps and monsters are waiting in his lair to devour the life of the trespasser.
"Necromancy, Mega-Change, Dimmed Vision, Fireball ......"
They then entered a scroll shop, where Green picked out a few spell scrolls that could be used instantly, with the Giant Spell for Gondor and the others for Ike and Fiona, but the last three Fireball Scrolls Green kept for himself.
At heart, he's also a grumpy destroyer, which is why his exemplary path is attributed to a battle mage, not a demonic mage.
Three Pearls.
The price of the spell scroll far exceeded the potion, but it was still within the scope of the funds, and without hesitation, Green handed over the [pearl] and took the scroll into his arms.
......
High-purity holy water, flaming arrows, demonic weapons......
Like flowing water, the funds advanced flowed out in a steady stream, in exchange for piles of materials that could greatly improve the combat power of the adventure team, and filled into the backpacks of Ike and others.
Soon, Sam Ray Hiccup led the group through four shops to fulfill his promise to the Iron Fist Squad, and Green had purchased the supplies written on the scroll letter in advance, so he nodded to the innkeeper and confirmed that he could return.
So, led by Sam, the four of them followed the same path again, preparing to return to the Five Pot Inn, but before they were about to step up the stairs to the wooden door on the second floor, Ike Froude, the night cat thief in the group, suddenly stopped.
"Strange object, a diamond water bottle, with an unknown spell effect, automatically refills every three hours. ”
"The type of liquid in the bottle can be chosen by the type of liquid that is poured after drinking. ”
"Price: Three [pearls]. ”
Under the torches that were placed diagonally on the staircase, a gray cloth was laid on the rocky floor, and the items to be sold were placed on the simple storefront.
This is a common method used by some adventurers who know the existence of the black market, and they have a good relationship with the controller of the black market passage, and only need to pay a part of the fee to enter the black market, and then exchange the various strange objects and props obtained in the adventure for the funds and equipment they need.
At this moment, what caught Ike Flode's eye was a silvery white flat water bottle encrusted with fine diamonds in the center of the gray cloth. Apparently the adventurer who got this water bottle has also experimented and understands how to use this water bottle.
Since the black market was not allowed to speak, he wrote the method of using the water bottle in common language on the cardboard next to it, and marked the price at which he wanted to sell it.
Without seeing Ike Froude follow, Green turned his head to look down and immediately saw Ike's stunned eyes, and following Ike's fiery eyes, Green also immediately saw the diamond water bottle on the gray cloth and the cardboard next to it.
"Moonlight wine that never runs out!"
What he knew about Ike Froude made Green immediately guess the only thought in Ike's mind at the moment.
As a descendant of Centia, Ike Froude has an unusual attachment to the fine wines of his homeland, but because of the long distance, the moonlight wine is extremely expensive in Ascotra, and even if Ike is already a high-level wanderer who has passed the exemplary path, he can only drink a glass occasionally after his adventure.
However, if you buy this water bottle, you only need to fill the water bottle with moonshine for the first time, and the wine will never run out, and Ike will always be able to taste the taste of his hometown even during his adventures.
"Go ahead!"
There was no sound, but Green turned around and walked up the stairs, tapping his palm on Ike's shoulder as he shoved a pearl into his palm.
This is Green's own private collection, not the funds for the operation advanced this time. At the same time, Fiona and Gondok also do the same thing, although they often taunt Ike Flod, but Fiona is also unambiguous when it comes to critical moments.
Compared to the other two, Gondork's giant palm contained a few Dan Towers, and most of his income was bought for food and sent back to the tribe, which was already his only remaining savings.
"Thank you!"
Expressing gratitude with his eyes, Ike Flaude tightened his palms and walked quickly to the adventurer who was setting up the stall, while his right hand groped around his waist, pulling out a pearl hidden in his waist and merging it into his palm.
He crouched down in front of the adventurer's stall, spread out his palms so that he could see the coins in his palms, signaling that he had enough money, and then reached for the diamond water bottle to pick it up and examine it carefully.
After all, this was a big deal of three [pearls], and he had to confirm it carefully.
"Clank!"
However, when Ike's palm reached for the Diamond Water Bottle, three silver-white [Pearls] fell from the sky, swirling and striking on the gray cloth, and at the same time, a white and slender palm reached out to the Diamond Water Bottle at a faster speed than Ike Vernod!
