Chapter 0164 - Balance (3900 Plus, Five More Requests for Subscription)
At the end of the tunnel is a stone door.
On the stone door, there is also a pair of bizarre monster sculptures.
It was two strange bird-like creatures, with feathers rising from their heads to form the shape of a crown.
Seeing someone coming, the dragon's eye-sized pupils emitted light, and the entire stone sculpture immediately moved.
"This is the Estik Bird, the Bird of Fortune, a rumored mystical creature that is said to have the ability to quickly identify and estimate wealth...... "The old witch stepped out of the way and motioned for Sulu to step forward, "To enter the high-end fair, you must show it what you are satisfied with, and it will open the door for you." ”
'Money-loving bird......
Su Lu complained inwardly, and the expression on his face did not change at all.
Of course, in his current state of masked, no one could see his true expression.
"Then ...... Let's do this! ”
He thought for a moment, and simply handed over a stack of silver dollar bills.
"Didi!"
The eyes of the two stone statues of the Estic birds glowed with fluorescence, and like scanning lights, they swept over the thick stack of banknotes in his hand, and suddenly opened their mouths and let out a pleasant chirp.
Thundered!
In the crisp birdsong, the stone door slowly opened, revealing the space inside.
"Please come in, I won't be with you after that."
The old witch bowed to see her off.
"Really...... Strange birds! ”
Sulu exclaimed and walked through the stone gate.
Value is a criterion that is not easy to measure.
It's easy to say if it's based on a simple mysterious content or precious metal, but it's paper money that you give! Pure state credit guarantee.
I don't know how the value of those two gargoyles was determined.
"Or...... There are appraiser professionals who hide in the shadows and manipulate them, or they are the power of pure occultism...... The latter is even more terrifying! ”
Sulu walked into the space behind the stone gate and found that it was a square, with different stone gates on all sides.
In the middle of the square, there is a circle of sofas, and cloaked people gather in twos and threes, all hiding their heads and tails, as if a mystic salon is going on.
Sulu didn't sit down immediately, but looked around curiously.
It seems that this is also part of the ruins, perhaps the storehouse of its former owner.
"Pretty patterned, isn't it?"
Just as he was copying some patterns on the stone wall, a female voice came over.
Sulu turned his head and saw a figure in a red cloak.
Although the voice made was a female voice, who was really inside was completely foggy.
"Yes, it's full of witchcraft, and I think it should be from a [wizard]!"
Sulu shrugged his shoulders and replied indifferently.
"Indeed...... the [Wizard] profession, different from [Witch]!" The female voice under the red cloak said.
Witch is a profession that only women can work in, while Wizard is more balanced.
Sulu chatted with her a few more words, and found that the other party should be a spellcaster, and he has a lot of knowledge.
While! While!
Just as the woman in the red cloak wanted to communicate more, a bell rang from the center of the square.
"The deal is on, let's get over!"
The female voice under the cloak invited.
"Okay!"
Su Lu saw the figures coming to the center, so he naturally followed, and chose a long sofa to sit down.
At this moment, the red cloak sat down beside him, and a rich smell of perfume wafted over.
"Everyone!"
After everyone was seated, an old man in a silver mask came to the center and spoke: "The dawn of the gods has come...... It is our luck that today we drink wine together, exchange with each other, and hope that in the future, we can open up the road of legends together! ”
This person's voice is not loud, but it seems to be whispering in everyone's ears, and there is an inexplicable force field around him.
Su Lu looked at it and knew that the other party should be a fourth-order master professional.
And looking at the people present, there were at least thirty people, each of whom was at least a second-order or above.
It can be said that the elites of Charles City's extraordinary people in the field may be here.
'No...... With this kind of extraordinary transaction, maybe there will be people from the Eleventh Bureau of the Federation mixed with the church! ’
At the end, an oak staff appeared in the hand of the old man in the mask, and he tapped it lightly.
Thundered!
In the center of the salon, a stone platform rises slowly, and above it is a black scale, with a vertical eye in the middle.
"Is that ...... 'justice scale'?"
At this time, Sulu heard the cloak woman next to him muttering in a low voice.
"Impartial Scales?"
He asked curiously.
"In the mythology of the New World...... The indigenous gods weighed the souls of believers with scales to determine their piety and good and evil, which was the origin of the original artifact scales...... And this impartial scale, although far from being as great a being, is also a rare mysterious object, which can measure the value of the items on both sides, and there are few mistakes. ”
The Cloaked Woman glanced at Sulu, as if understanding that he was a newcomer, and explained to him.
"I see!"
Sulu nodded, knowing that this balance might be the source of the ability to identify the sculptures on the door.
In addition, it is also the basis for the establishment of such trade fairs, which can identify counterfeit goods and shoddy products.
However, the value assessment in everyone's eyes may not be equal to the scale.
What it maintains is a generally fair environment.
"So...... According to the rules, the guests in the direction of Aries speak first, in clockwise order, no problem, right? ”
The old man in the mask looked around, nodded, and returned to his seat.
On the right side of Sulu, five or six people away, a bloated black-robed man stood up, came to the stone platform in the middle, took out a box from under the cloak, and when he opened it, there was a strange purple flower the size of a bowl: "Magical material-a perilla orchid flower, exchange it for a potion that helps spiritual power, or a golden dragon for sale......"
'So that's the perilla orchid?' ’
Su Lu's eyes lit up, he knew that this material was a main ingredient for the configuration of mid-to-high-grade potions, this fat man seemed to be a spellcaster, and seemed to be in dire need of psychic potions.
"200 Golden Dragons!"
"220 Golden Dragon!"
"Vicious potion, two standard servings!"
The people sitting around quoted one after another, and the potion reported by the last green-robed man made Sulu's eyelids jump.
'Yes...... The Caucus tribe has existed for so long, maybe the recipe has been spread a long time ago! ’
It can be seen that this trader seems to be in urgent need of medicine, and his face is full of joy after hearing the name of the poisonous medicine, regardless of the price increase of other people's golden dragons, he looks at the green-robed man: "Deal!" ”
When trading, they place their respective items on the scales of justice.
Sulu saw very clearly that the box containing the perilla orchid was obviously going to be pressed down, but this was a normal premium, and the deal was reached after both parties had no objections.
