Chapter 268: Meet the Red Wing Mercenary Group Again
If I'm not mistaken, this should be the book of identification.
The Book of Identification, a rune book made by a rune master, possesses the ability to identify the types of blood beasts.
Each of the patterns on it is drawn from the bones of the corresponding blood beasts after grinding them into powder and adding special materials.
When encountering the blood of the corresponding Blood Beast, the color will change, and in this way, the type of Blood Beast's blood can be distinguished.
Sure enough, the seductive woman's next move confirmed Gray's suspicion.
I saw that the other party flipped to the position of the blood beast marked on the book in the rune bag, and then dipped the blood with a clean bamboo stick, and dripped a drop of blood on the corresponding blood beast pattern.
Airplanes!
Suddenly, the corresponding pattern suddenly emitted a blood-red light, and the light lasted for a long time before finally dimming and disappearing.
And the charming woman weighed the record and began the test of the next bag of blood.
Identification, weighing, recording.
It took half an hour for the charming woman to identify all the blood, and then she did the math, and looked at Gray with a smile.
"Your Excellency, among your batch of mad-level blood beast blood, 217 parts of mad knife mantis blood, 278 parts of mad bull blood, 205 parts of cold ice tiger blood...... a total of 3,120 parts, in our Chamber of Commerce, the unified purchase price of mad-level ordinary blood beasts is 300 gold coins, that is, 936,000 gold coins, please confirm the amount!"
As he spoke, the other party handed the manuscript paper that recorded the blood share of the blood beast to Gray.
"That's the number."
Gray took it, did a slight mental calculation, and nodded.
The price of 300 gold coins is not high, but it is not low either.
Under normal circumstances, the auction price of the blood of a mad blood beast can reach about 500 gold coins, but this also has to fall to the high handling fee of the auction.
And such a large amount of blood beast blood is not at all able to be auctioned off in just a few times.
If you want to sell the blood in the form of an auction, it will inevitably take a long time, and when you finally get the money, I am afraid it will be a year later.
Gray obviously couldn't wait that long, so he didn't think about selling it in the form of an auction, but chose to sell it directly.
"Your Excellency, please take an inventory!"
Nine hundred and thirty-six thousand gold coins, that is, nine thousand three hundred magic coins, and soon, a wooden box full of magic coins was carried to Gray.
In the chest, mana coins were neatly bundled one by one, each containing 50 pieces.
"No problem."
Gray crouched down, tapped the number, and nodded to the charming woman after confirming that it was okay.
"That's good, is there anything else you need?"
The charming woman smiled.
If the deal is successful, both she and the girl who led Gray will receive a lot of rewards.
"Do you have the blood beast blood of the corpse ape here?"
Gray asked.
"Corpse Ape, I'm sorry, what level of blood beast is this?"
The charming woman had a puzzled look on her face, as a person who was specifically responsible for selling and purchasing the blood of blood beasts, she was also well-informed, but she had never heard of this kind of blood beasts.
"This is a mad-level blood beast, from the corpse ape sequence, and its ability is to manipulate the corpse of a dead blood beast."
A voice rang out, but it wasn't Gray, it came from behind the three of them.
Behind the three of them, a young woman in a white tanuki coat approached.
The woman has long fiery red hair and a delicate face.
The body is tall, a pair of long legs are extremely slender, and with a pair of white boots, it is even more concave.
"Miss."
Seeing this man, the charming woman and the girl beside her who was guiding Gray respectfully called out.
Gray looked at the woman with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
It was a beautiful woman, but that wasn't why Gray looked at her with surprise.
The reason why Gray was surprised was because the other party was able to easily tell the origin and ability of the corpse hairy ape.
Even he had searched for a long time among the Sidney family's many books before he found the name of the blood beast.
"I'm sorry, this blood beast is an extremely rare blood beast, and our Chamber of Commerce doesn't have the blood of this blood beast."
The red-haired young woman walked up to Gray and said apologetically.
"It's fine."
Gray shook his head.
"Then I will take my leave."
Nodding to the red-haired woman, Gray picked up the heavy wooden box with one hand, and Gray turned to leave.
The goal has been achieved, and Gray will not continue to stay in the Rex Chamber of Commerce for long.
Watching Gray disappear into the stairs on the second floor, the charming woman said to the red-haired woman.
"Miss, next week's auction originally didn't have the blood of a barbarian wind special blood beast, why did you temporarily add the weasel blood to it? Do you know this man? ”
"I don't know, but he knows my friend."
The red-haired young woman smiled.
……
After leaving Rex's auction, he found a hotel to stay in, and for the next few days, in addition to his daily practice, Gray spent most of his time wandering the streets of Mercenary City.
I found a "tour guide" and asked him to lead the way to one shop after another that bought and sold blood, hoping to see if he could touch the blood of the corpse ape.
It's a pity that after a few days, almost all the shops in the mercenary city that buy and sell blood have been browsed, and they still haven't been able to encounter the blood of the corpse ape, obviously as the red-haired woman said, the corpse hair ape is a very rare blood beast.
"Let's go, there's a duel over there in the dueling arena!"
"What? There is a duel? ”
"I haven't encountered a duel for half a month, let's go, go over and take a look......"
……
Following the "guide", Gray walked down the street when he suddenly saw a commotion in the streets, rushing in one direction.
"What is the dueling arena?"
Gray looked at the guide suspiciously, a young man in his mid-20s with a shallow beast scratch scar on his face, making him look more mature than his current age.
"That's where the mercenaries of the City of Mercenaries resolve conflicts, and once they enter the dueling arena, they don't care if they live or die."
The young man's face condensed slightly.
"Once you enter the gladiatorial arena, it doesn't matter if you live or die?"
Hearing the other party's words, Gray couldn't help but look slightly condensed, he didn't expect that the mercenary city actually had such unique rules.
Regardless of life or death, you can feel that this duel is unusual, and it is actually based on the premise of life and death, which can be imagined that this duel is bloody and cruel.
And the mercenary city actually allows such a place to resolve the conflict to exist, from this point, it is not difficult to see that the mercenary city is different from the city ruled by the nobility.
"Let's take a look, too."
Gray decided to follow along.
After a few days, the place where he should run has been finished, and he has lost hope in the blood of the corpse ape, so he simply went to see what this "life or death" dueling arena is like.
The two followed the crowd and poured into a huge building that resembled a Roman colosseum from a previous life.
The building resembles an inverted hemispherical shape, with a trapezoidal shape downwards and many rows of stairs.
On the innermost side, it is straight down, enclosing an area of mud and gravel with a diameter of more than 100 meters, which is the area of fighting.
Here, in this area, there are already two people standing in it.
With his strong physical fitness, Gray led the young mercenaries to the very edge of the viewing platform and looked inside.
One of them was a thin man with a triangular face.
Wearing a green uniform, his body is extremely thin, like a green bamboo pole.
The opponent's weapons are two short knives, and the short knives are held in the opponent's hands, which actually gives people the feeling of a green mantis with its scythe exposed.
The other person, dressed in a blue-gray battle uniform, was of medium stature.
Holding a war knife, at this time, the tip of the war knife has touched the ground.
"......Is it him?!"
Seeing this man, Gray exclaimed in surprise because he knew someone.
More than a year ago, in the Akaba Forest, Gray had an encounter with a mercenary group called the Red Wing Mercenary Regiment, and together with them, he besieged and killed the Jasper Lizard.
And the person in front of him is the leader of the Red Wing Mercenary Regiment.
When he first arrived in Mercenary City, he thought about whether to visit the other party, but in the end he gave up, but he didn't expect to meet him in such a place.
The man in the blue-gray suit was not far from Gray, and as if sensing Gray's gaze, he looked sideways at Gray.
When he saw Gray, he was slightly stunned, but soon showed a sudden look, and it seemed that he recognized Gray.
"It's the leader of the Red Wing Mercenary Group and the leader of the Mantis Mercenary Group, I didn't expect it to be a duel between these two people!"
"These two are berserkers, so there's something to see now."
Next to Gray, several people were talking in whispers.
"Are these two mercenary groups really because of the last incident?"
Someone who knows the inside story said thoughtfully.
"What's the matter?"
If there is something unclear, he asked in doubt.
"The wife of a mercenary captain of the Red Wing Mercenary Regiment was raped and killed by the son of the leader of the Praying Mantis Mercenary Regiment, and this mercenary captain went to take revenge and was also killed."
"What? actually did such a thing, the son of the leader of the mantis mercenary group is simply not a thing. ”
"What happened?"
"Later, the leader of the Red Wing Mercenary Regiment personally killed the son of the leader of the Mantis Mercenary Regiment, and at this point, conflicts broke out between the two mercenary groups from time to time."
"And this time, I think it's preparing to completely resolve the conflict, and I actually went to the dueling arena."
Beside him, from the conversation of these people, after listening to the whole process of the conflict, Gray shook his head.
He was quite sympathetic to what happened to the Red Wing Mercenary Group.
The entire conflict was provoked by the Praying Mantis Mercenary Group, and the Red Wing Mercenary Group was only forced to fight back.
But now that I'm in the dueling arena, who is right and who is wrong is actually meaningless, just to see who can survive in the end.
He suddenly understood the rules of the mercenary world, which were different from those of the aristocratic world.
Don't ask whether it's right or wrong, just for the strength or weakness.
Compared with the aristocracy, the mercenaries have torn through the hypocritical disguise and embodied the rule of the jungle more vividly!
