Chapter 311: The Ghost Merchant Returns
It was afternoon, and the streets were crowded with pedestrians and horse-drawn carriages.
The surrounding vendor stalls can be seen everywhere, but walking on such a street, Gray has a feeling of cool air coming from the soles of his feet.
Because all of this seems to be very close to Gray, but in fact it is very far away.
Not the slightest sound could reach Gray's ears, and the people who seemed to be extremely close seemed to be thousands of miles away, and they couldn't hear the slightest sound coming from the other party's mouth.
Not only the voice, but these people didn't even have a physical body, and they couldn't notice Gray, they slammed past Gray, or from Gray's front, without the slightest form.
Gray has been walking in the city for a long time, but what he has seen and encountered is still this kind of phantom, which makes Gray can't help but suspect that the other party has dragged the entire city into this phantom world.
After walking a few more streets, what he saw was still an illusion without exception, and Gray completely confirmed his previous guess, and the other party definitely pulled the entire city into the illusion.
Terrible, terrifyingly powerful!
Such a strong man, Gray is sure that whether it is the king of mercenaries or the king of killers, these two king-level powerhouses that Gray has seen are by no means opponents of the other party.
Trapped in such an illusion, it is useless to be able to destroy a radius of thousands or even thousands of meters with a single blow, no matter how strong you are against the sky.
As long as you can't break the fantasy world, whatever you do is useless.
A few more streets away, a simple stall with an old man next to it appeared in front of Gray.
Smack, smack, smack!
Seeing the old man in front of this stall, Gray subconsciously took a few steps back.
This is an extremely ordinary-looking old man, both dressed and dressed, extremely ordinary, no different from the many old vendors on the street.
But in its ordinary, there is also unusual.
I saw that the other party's eyes were pitch black, like a bottomless abyss, as if to attract people's minds to it, which was extremely palpitating.
The Ghost Merchant, this man is the Ghost Merchant!
Gray, who had already experienced it once, naturally knew that the person in front of him was the extremely mysterious ghost merchant.
"Your Excellency."
Taking a deep breath and stabilizing his mind, Gray stiffened his head, stepped forward, and saluted respectfully.
The old man nodded to him slightly, and then said.
"Choose one of three."
Without any superfluous words, the old man said mechanically.
Gray looked over and saw that three things were already floating on the stall in front of the old man.
The first thing was a two-handed sword that was five feet long.
The whole body of the sword is green, as if it was polished from green jade, and there are intricate and beautiful patterns carved on it.
It's not so much a sword as a delicate work of art, and it doesn't look obtrusive when placed in the halls of the castle.
But Gray didn't dare to underestimate this sword, not only because it was the ghost merchant who took out the sword, but also because when he saw this sword, he actually had a creepy and extremely dangerous feeling.
Obviously, this sword is not as simple as it seems, and it is definitely an extremely terrifying magic weapon.
The second thing, which is a floating flower, as if it had just been plucked, is delicate.
The flowers have a total of seven petals, each of which is the size of an adult's middle finger and varies in color.
There's red, there's green, there's blue...... Seven petals have seven colors, and the seven colors together are full of dreamy colors, giving people the feeling that they are not real.
"Seven-Colored Flower ......"
Gray's pupils narrowed, and he recognized the flower.
After learning that in addition to the conventional way of implanting a higher-level bloodline, the bloodline can also be combined with some special magic herbs, Gray consulted a lot of related books, and even made a special trip to the Sidney family for this purpose.
With the help of the Sidney family's huge collection of books, I finally learned something about it.
Among them, the seven-colored flower is a kind of magic medicine that can cooperate with the blood method to promote the evolution and improvement of the bloodline, and in terms of value, it is equivalent to the evolution fruit of the king of mercenaries and the king of killers.
In other words, this flower in front of him, even if a king-level powerhouse sees it, he will definitely snatch it.
"Even magical herbs with effects similar to the fruit of evolution can be exchanged, no wonder they can arouse the covetousness of the Nerham family's brothers."
Gray gasped, finally understanding why the two brothers of the Neham family would buy and sell by force, and if they couldn't buy by force, they would be killed directly.
He still underestimated the value of the silver metal ball too much, and even the things that king-level powerhouses coveted could be exchanged.
"Sure enough, the Neham family will definitely not give up!"
A deep sense of crisis hit Gray's mind.
His intuition told him that even if he left the Duchess of Neham, it did not mean absolute safety, and the Neham family would definitely try to find him.
Suppressing his worries, Gray looked at the third object.
This is a purple ring, made of purple unknown metal, carved with many intricate patterns, simple and full of rhythm.
It looks extremely ordinary, but there is a faint unusualness in the ordinary, full of mysterious charm.
Moreover, being able to put it together with a powerful magic sword and a magic medicinal herb comparable to the fruit of evolution is enough to show that he is not ordinary.
Of the three things, except for the magic ring, which is not worth anything for the time being, the other two things are extremely valuable, so he doesn't know how to choose for a while.
"My lord, could you please introduce three things?"
Gray glanced at the old man and asked politely.
Last time, I also asked the other party about the three items, and although the other party answered very "perfunctory", he didn't seem to be angry, so Gray dared to ask.
"Magical weapons, plant abilities."
"Seven-colored flowers, purifying medicinal herbs."
The old man started with the green magic sword and introduced it from left to right.
The old man's voice was smooth, and the content was extremely "brief", just like the previous introduction.
He is by no means a qualified businessman, of course, no one dares to ask him to become a qualified businessman like this, not even a king-level powerhouse.
The old man's introduction continued, and he pointed to the last thing without waves, that is, the purple metal ring.
"Magical weapons, spatial abilities."
"Spatial ability?"
Green's eyes widened suddenly, and his eyes burst into light, staring at the purple ring without blinking.
This is actually a ring with spatial abilities.
Spatial ability, a very rare ability, but any magic item with this ability must be extremely valuable.
One of the most common magical items with spatial abilities is the Rune Space Bag.
But even the most common ones are rarely available.
So far, Gray knows that the people who possess the rune space bag are either brute warriors, such as Rob Tracy, the leader of the Shadow Serpent, or from the Marquis and even the above families, such as the Sidney family, which shows the preciousness of this kind of thing.
And this thing in front of him is obviously not a rune space bag, so what kind of ability will it have?
Teleportation, or spatial blades, or other spatial abilities?
No matter which one it is, it must be very rebellious, after all, the spatial ability is such an ability.
"What should you choose?"
Staring at three things, Gray was torn between them.
Of the three things, the seven-colored flower, Gray gave up after careful consideration.
For him, it is far from being as difficult as others to improve his bloodline, and he can't use the seven-colored flower to improve his bloodline.
Even after his strength reaches the king level, he has a way to raise his bloodline above the king level.
Although the seven-colored flower is also a way to elevate the bloodline to the king level, just one flower is obviously not enough, which is a bit of a chicken rib for him.
The remaining two things, the magic sword of plant ability, can be said to be very suitable for him.
He himself has plant abilities, and if he holds a magic sword with plant powers, the power he can exert will definitely be extremely strong.
Now that he needs strength, this magic sword that can improve his strength is definitely an excellent choice.
And the other thing is actually an extremely rare space ability magic weapon.
Although it is not clear what kind of spatial ability it is, there is no doubt that this is definitely an extremely valuable magic weapon, and the spatial ability has already shown its value.
"What should I choose between the magic sword of plant ability and the magic ring of space ability?"
Ruling out the seven-colored flowers, Gray is caught in a 2-for-1 choice.
As much as he would love to choose both, it was clear that he only had the right to choose one.
He didn't think about bargaining with the ghost merchants.
Without the corresponding strength, it is absolutely stupid to bargain with such a strong person.
After a moment of hesitation, gritting his teeth, Gray made a decision.
"I choose a ring with spatial abilities!"
Spatial ability, extremely rare ability, all items with this ability, each piece is extremely precious, and in the end, Gray still chose the ring with spatial ability.
Syllable!
The next moment Gray made his choice, something landed in Gray's palm, and it was the purple metal ring.
Then Gray saw that the old man and the stall in front of the old man, as well as the two remaining things on the stall, were blurring and slowly disappearing.
The noise around him, which had disappeared, slowly returned, slowly becoming clearer, and in the blink of an eye, Gray returned to the original world.
"I haven't ...... yet Give him the silver metal ball? ”
Suddenly, Gray's face turned strange.
Because he was so nervous, he actually forgot to take out the silver metal ball, the silver metal ball was still in his rune space bag, and he hadn't had time to give it to the other party yet.
