Chapter 227: The Black Market (Part II)

The black market was underground, and after Ark and Holt were cleared, they walked into a dimly lit passageway that was facing downward, and it took a long time for a bright light to appear in front of them. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

As the two of them walked out of the passageway, Ark felt a sudden dawn, it was a huge underground plaza, and there were hundreds of people in the square, if not more, because most of them were still trading in some secret rooms on the black market.

As for how to trade on the black market?, it was very simple, Ark looked at some of the stalls with all kinds of staffs, spell models, etc., in short, everything, and even some things could obviously be seen to be stolen goods, and the prices were very cheap.

"It's not going to be a direct transaction using merit points, is it?

Ark asked, frowning.

"It's very simple, if you want to trade, just exchange it for black stone in the black market. ”

"Go check it out. ”

So, Yak went to the place where the black market was exchanged for blackstone, and the blackstone here was divided into first-class blackstone, second-class blackstone, third-class blackstone, and so on. A first-class blackstone is equivalent to ten merit points, a second-class blackstone is equivalent to a hundred merit points, and a third-class blackstone is equivalent to a thousand merit points.

Redeeming a second-class Blackstone requires a merit point as a handling fee, which is quite cheap, after all, the Grey Winter Ciep charges one percent, while the Black Market only charges one thousandth of a fee.

But even so, the black market is so lively, and the daily transaction volume is very large, even if it is only a thousandth of a commission, that is a huge amount.

Ark now had a full six thousand merit points left, he thought about it, and first exchanged ten second-class black stones, which was equivalent to one thousand merit points, and was directly deducted ten merit points.

Ark discovers that when he was exchanging, this place can be directly connected to Castle Grey Winter, and he is trading with Ark as a very ordinary spellcaster, of course, this is likely to be a fake identity. But the fact that this place can be directly connected to the Grey Winter Castle is already very telling.

"Don't say. ”

As if knowing what Ark wanted to say, Mage Holt shook his head slightly, one thousand and ten merit points were deducted from Ark's account, and ten second-class black stones appeared in his hand.

After leaving the exchange point, Mage Holt shook his head and said, "Do you want to say that this black market is related to the Gray Winter Castle? Hehe, in fact, some people speculate that maybe the black market was opened by the high-ranking people of the Gray Winter Castle, and the purpose is very simple, since the Gray Winter Castle is not trusted, then they will open a black market, and both are in their hands." Of course, this is just speculation, and there are some things that don't need to be investigated. ”

Indeed, what kind of secrets the black market hides has nothing to do with low-level spellcasters like Ark and Holt.

Ark walked around casually, it was not a waste for him to exchange so many blackstones, because they could be exchanged at any time, and there would be no handling fee for blackstones to exchange merit points.

In case he encounters something he likes in the black market, then he also has enough black stone to buy, as for the problem of counterfeiting, Yak also thought of it, he picked up this black stone and looked at it, but found that the material is very ordinary, but there is a rune on it that is very mysterious.

"Don't look at it, this rune is a high-level spellcaster, and it is rumored that it was personally laid by the great existence of the ninth order, except for those who are above the ninth order can be imitated, no one can imitate it. ”

Ark nodded, as for the existence above the ninth order, who would be bored enough to imitate the black stone?

However, this also shows that the terrorist forces behind the black market are definitely not what ordinary spellcasters can imagine.

The atmosphere on the black market is very hot, which is completely different from the atmosphere of the Grey Winter Castle. In Grey Winter's Treasure, although the commodities are more abundant than here, and the trading volume is far from being comparable to the black market, it is traded on a virtual platform, which is far less lively than face-to-face transactions like the black market.

"Is that a jasper staff? hehe, I've heard that Mage Vetling was intercepted and killed halfway, and all the spellcasting tools on his body have disappeared, but now he has appeared here, it seems that this staff seller is the one who killed Mage Vetling." ”

Suddenly, a group of black-clothed mages were watching a spellcaster selling jasper staffs, but Ark faintly heard a hint of wind, and asked in a low voice, "I have also heard of Master Vetling, he is a disciple of a third-order spellcaster, and he is also a leader among first-order spellcasters. Unexpectedly, he was killed, and even the staff was sold on the black market. ”

Ark had also heard the news, and at that time he had not yet acted with Master Kanna.

It's just that this is the black market, and although everyone knows that this spellcaster is the one who killed Master Wetling, even Master Vetling's teacher is helpless, and no one dares to make trouble on the black market.

"This jasper staff is normally worth six thousand merit points, but now, I'm afraid no one has bought three thousand merit points. ”

Mage Holt shook his head, no way, this is the black market, knowing that this is a treasure, but no one dares to buy it easily, after all, once it is bought, it will offend Master Witling's friends and teachers.

If it is used in the future, it will be accidentally known by Master Vetrin's teacher, and it will even cause misunderstanding, which will be a big trouble, and the deterrent power of a third-order mage is still very great.

However, there are always people who take risks, and this jasper staff can increase the power of releasing light spells, so it can be considered a pretty good spell casting device.

"I'll give three thousand merit points. ”

One of the black-clothed mages spoke directly in a hoarse voice, apparently his voice had also been manipulated so that it was impossible to know his true identity based on his voice.

However, the spellcaster who sold the jasper staff shook his head and said, "At least four thousand merit points." ”

"Four thousand, you're on the black market, this is Master Wittling's staff, and buying it would mean big trouble. Being able to give 3,000 merit points is already a good price. ”

Obviously, the other side is not willing to pay a high price.

"Four thousand, one less merit point is not sold. ”

The black-clothed mage still said coldly, his attitude was very resolute.

"You ......"

The buyer was a little angry, but a little hesitant, he really needed this jasper staff, as most of the spells he had built were light spells. And the jasper staff can increase the power of light spells by three percent or even higher, such a spell-casting instrument is indeed rare and unattainable.

After thinking about it for a long time, the spellcaster finally couldn't bear the jasper staff, so he said in a deep voice: "Okay, four thousand is four thousand, I want this jasper staff!"

The two quickly made a deal, and then disappeared into the crowd, and no one could find their trace. (To be continued.) )
