Chapter 10: The Mercenary Guild
After saying goodbye to the three daughters of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Xuanyue went all the way to the east, and walked for more than a hundred miles before finally resting.
On the way, he encountered a lot of demon beasts, Xuan Yue took a detour, after all, some demon beasts were powerful, and he was sure in his heart that it was the right thing to rush back to Tianyu City, and unnecessary troubles could naturally be avoided.
As for the demon beasts that really couldn't get around, Xuan Yue didn't drag the mud and water at all, and they all killed them as quickly as possible.
Along the way, Xuan Yue has collected a lot of demon beast crystals. Among them, there are three human-level intermediate demon beast spars, and two human-level high-level demon beast spars, as long as one more spar is collected, the six-star array can be cultivated and activated.
The sky is blue, the clouds are full of clouds, and the forest exudes a strong smell of grass and trees, Xuan Yue looked at the long sword in his hand that was only the middle grade of the [Human Rank], and couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: [This sword can no longer be used, this place is still two hundred miles away from Tianyu City, and the road is extremely dangerous, so I still have to change my weapon. If the map is correct, further on, there should be a mercenary guild site. γ
In the Earth Boundary Continent, weapons are divided according to their quality level, and they will also be divided into five orders and three grades.
The five levels are [Heaven Level], [Earth Level], [Xuan Level], [Yellow Level] and [Human Rank], among which [Heaven Rank] is the highest quality, and then decreases in turn, and [Human Rank] is the lowest quality.
According to the quality of the three products, they are the upper grade, the middle grade and the lower grade, the upper grade is the best, the middle grade is second, and the lower grade is the second.
When Xuan Yue was chasing Princess Wuyang and Merlin before, she passed by the mercenary guild's site, but she was in a hurry at the time and didn't stay, in addition to posting quests, there will be auctions every once in a while.
As soon as she thought of this, Xuan Yue hurriedly drank water, reorganized for a while, and continued to move forward, wanting to try her luck and see if she could shoot the weapon in her hand.
All the way, Xuan Yue silently transported the [Classic of Mountains and Seas], the spiritual power in his body turned over, the fatigue gradually disappeared, and it didn't take long to arrive at a lively camp.
In front of him, there was a joint camp, and there were many mercenaries in the battalion, they were in groups of three or five, wearing different weapons.
Following the direction of everyone's comings and goings, Xuan Yue looked at the camp fence, there were many wooden buildings in the bar, and the construction technology was similar to many famous buildings in Tianyu City, and it was lifelike and magnificent.
Xuan Yue walked in, there were many mission notices of the mercenary guild outside the bar, there was a two-story attic in the bar, and there was a plaque on the curtain on the second floor of the attic, and several large characters in seal characters were dancing with dragons and phoenixes, carved with [Mercenary Guild].
Seeing the plaque, Xuan Yue's mouth showed a relaxed smile, so she walked forward without hesitation, and only heard a shout from the attic between the meteors: [Everyone, please see, the treasure that our mercenary guild is going to auction today is this sword on the stage! ] γ
As he spoke, Xuan Yue had already entered the attic.
As soon as he entered, he saw hundreds of people gathered in the hall, and everyone looked at the stage, on the stage stood a famous short and fat old man, the old man had kind eyes, easy-going manners, and the spiritual power on his body was very strong, and at this moment he was talking endlessly about a broken sword on the stand.
[This sword is called Qingyang Sword, from the ancient ruins of the Warcraft Forest Mountain Range, it should have been a Xuan-level sword before, but unfortunately it was damaged, and the grade has declined, and now it looks like it is just a remnant sword, but it is still a treasure of the lower grade of the Yellow Order, and the power is not small. The current starting price of this sword is only 1,000 gold coins, and the price is increased by 500 gold coins once. γ
[your grandma's, the quality is good, but after all, it's a broken sword, and the asking price of a thousand gold coins is too high! ] γ
[Yes, yes, with those 1,000 gold coins, you can shoot a normal [Yellow Order] low-grade weapon, the Mercenary Guild is really a money obsesser, it is really not as good as the [Baibao Firm] is kind. I don't know which fool will shoot this sword. Hahaha-] There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, quite clamoring, obviously not looking down on the mercenary guild's auction items today.
Hearing this, the short and fat old man looked at the audience with shrewd eyes, secretly regretting himself in his heart, and did not deny the hustle and bustle of everyone. After all, although the Qingyang Sword is a [Yellow Rank] inferior grade, it is indeed just a remnant sword.
He estimated that there would be a lot of people watching the excitement today, and there would definitely be very few real bidders, so no one would be willing to spend the money of a yellow-rank quality weapon and finally buy a defective sword.
Thinking like this in his heart, Lao Qin, who was the head of the mercenary guild site here, couldn't help but sigh, if the Qingyang Sword had not been damaged, if it was really the quality of the [Xuan Rank], it would be able to auction hundreds of thousands of gold coins, not to mention that it could auction hundreds of thousands of gold coins, how could other guild sites endure the pain and cut their love, and they would send it to the Warcraft Forest for auction.
The warriors and mercenaries in the Warcraft Forest are mixed, belonging to different forces, among which there are many fierce exiled warriors, they will not be accepted by the major cities, and they are not allowed to enter the city to trade.
[1,000 gold coinsββ]
Sure enough, a scar-faced warrior shouted the first offer, and someone in the crowd recognized him and shouted in surprise: [It's actually Jiang Xia, the second commander of the thieves corps. γ
[I heard that Jiang Xia was once a disciple of [Medicine Valley], but he killed his fellow sect for snatching a [Yellow Order] lower grade treasure weapon, and was later expelled from the sect by [Medicine Valley]. His cultivation is not high, but he has a good hand of elixir, and because of this, he was recruited by the thief regiment to be the second commander. γ
[Who says it's not, Jiang Xia is ruthless, since he climbed the big tree of the thief corps, he has done a lot of work to kill people and sell goods. On weekdays, he buys medicinal herbs and alchemy furnaces, why did he become interested in half a broken sword today? γ
Hearing [Medicine Valley], Xuan Yue suddenly became interested, you must know that he was worried about how to refine [Huang Lingdan], and immediately heard that Jiang Xia had been a disciple of [Medicine Valley], so he hurriedly followed the prestige, only to see that the man was burly, wearing a demon tiger animal skin, and the scar on his face was thick and terrifying, which made his already unsightly face even more hideous.
[Fifteen hundred gold coinsββ]
In the noisy hall, another voice suddenly sounded, it was a slender man shouting, obviously he was also a little interested in the [Qingyang Sword].
[Hahaha, someone has already bid 1,500 gold coins, friends in the audience, is there a higher price than 1,500 gold coins? ] Although the Qingyang Sword has been mutilated, it is now also a weapon of the lower grade of the Yellow Rank, and in this part of our Warcraft Forest, it can be regarded as a weapon of good quality, and if you want it, you must auction it as soon as possible! γ
Station Elder Qin shouted a few times, obviously familiar with the atmosphere momentum.
As he spoke, he deliberately picked up the Qingyang Sword on the platform, and immediately injected a few traces of spiritual power, and in an instant, the lines on the sword emitted a burst of blue light, and the sound of the sword sounded.
[Good sword!] γ
When everyone in the hall saw it, they were all shocked, and they all looked at the sword in Lao Qin's hand, secretly wondering whether to bid.
[Fifteen hundred gold coins at a timeββ]
[Fifteen hundred gold coins twice-]
Feeling the sound of the sword coming from the air, Xuan Yue's body shook, her face was surprised, and her eyes were fixed on the Qingyang Sword in the old man's hand. If Xuan Yue had sensed it well, at the moment when Lao Qin sent out his sword qi, the [Divine Bead] in the sea of qi in Xuan Yue's body, which had been silent, trembled suddenly.
With Xuan Yue's breakthrough into the late stage of the Bailing Realm, his sense of the Divine Bead has become more and more acute, in the past few days, he has tried to probe the Divine Sense into the Divine Bead, but he was blocked by a layer of hazy mist, and he wanted to force his way in several times, but every time he went deeper, Xuan Yue's mind would come with a pinprick pain.
In desperation, Xuan Yue had to give up, although he didn't explore and understand, but he finally knew that inside the bead body of the Divine Bead, there should be an unknown space hidden!
With the disappearance of Lao Qin's spiritual power, the [Divine Bead] also fell silent.
[Hey, [Shenzhu] actually has a strong resonance with the Qingyang Sword, this half of the remnant sword doesn't seem to be an ordinary grade! γ
Xuan Yue knew that the [Divine Bead] was not an ordinary product, and the quality of the sword that could make the [Divine Bead] shocked, should not be much worse.
With curiosity, Xuan Yue thought to herself that she was also taking advantage of the weapon anyway, Qingyang Sword Rao was a half-handled sword, but it could also exert the power of the [Yellow Rank] lower grade, compared to the long sword that was snatched from Yin Fan before, the quality was much stronger, so she simply quoted casually: [Two thousand gold coins!] γ
[Wowββ, there is a little brother who bids for 2,000 gold coins, is there a higher price? γ
Station Elder Qin's heart blossomed, he originally thought that the Qingyang Sword could only sell for 1,500 gold coins at the highest, but he didn't expect someone to bid 2,000 gold coins.
Hurriedly looked towards Xuan Yue, the station elder Qin saw that the person who came was a young man, the young man was handsome and starry-eyed, very delicate, he looked like he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but the spiritual power fluctuated very strongly, Lao Qin only glanced at it, and then he was surprised in his heart, and said secretly: [At a young age, he has actually entered the late stage of the Bailing Realm! γ
[Two thousand gold coins once-]
[Two thousand gold coins twiceββ]
Station Elder Qin looked at Jiang Xia, the second regiment of the thieves regiment, and then looked at the martial artist who had asked for 1,500 gold coins, but both of them were very interested, obviously not ready to continue bidding, after all, half a broken sword, in the eyes of their old experience, even if it was the quality of the [Yellow Rank] lower grade, it was not worth spending two thousand gold coins at all.
What's more, the auction was just a teenager, the second commander of the thieves corps, Jiang Xia, glanced at Xuan Yue in the distance, in his eyes, Xuan Yue was already the prey at this moment, and when he got out of the mercenary guild, he had already given birth to the plan to kill people and rob goods, which is also what the thieves corps often do.
[Two thousand gold coins three times.] Congratulations to the little brother for becoming the master of the Qingyang Sword. In the eyes of everyone, Station Elder Qin led Xuan Yue to the stage, and while sending the Qingyang Sword into Xuan Yue's hands, he asked Xuan Yue for two thousand gold coins.
As soon as the sword was started, Xuan Yue only felt a shock of the divine bead in his body, and instantly released a powerful spiritual power, and the spiritual power was uncontrollably infused into the Qingyang Sword, and the lines of the sword body suddenly bloomed, this time, everyone in the hall obviously felt an ancient aura pressing over, and their breathing was stagnant.
Xuan Yue felt it most clearly, that breath was very powerful, as if it had precipitated the taste of the years, the murderous aura was very heavy, Rao is cultivation with the strength of the late stage of the Bailing Realm, and he couldn't help but feel shortness of breath, and his entire back was shocked into a cold sweat.
[What a strong sword intent! ] γ
Station Elder Qin narrowed his eyes, he saw that the young man in front of him injected the blood qi in his body into the Qingyang Sword, which actually caused resonance, a pair of shrewd cloudy eyes, two divine rays flashed in an instant, and he secretly guessed the identity of the young man in front of him in his heart.
[Congratulations to this little brother, he can actually cause the Qingyang Sword to resonate on its own, which shows that the little brother is really fated with this sword!] It's just that I don't know what the little brother is called, and where does it come from? γ
[In Xia Xuanyue, from Tianyu City! ] γ
Xuan Yue hurriedly used the [Classic of Mountains and Seas] mental method to forcibly cut off the connection between the [Divine Bead] and the Qingyang Sword, but it was just a telepathy in an instant, and he had already sensed that the Qingyang Sword was definitely not a [Yellow Rank] inferior grade.
This time I really picked up the treasure, Xuan Yue looked at the greedy and envious eyes in the audience, knowing that wealth was not exposed, and this place could not stay for a long time.
So he hurriedly took out some gold coins from the Qiankun bag, but there were not many gold coins, only less than a hundred, and they were snatched from Yin Fan.
Xuan Yue was helpless, so she had to grope again, originally wanted to exchange for the demon beast spar, but after thinking that the six-star array also needed the spar to activate the formation, she immediately extinguished the idea, and had no choice but to take out one of the two lark grasses.
Seeing the lark grass, Xuan Yue couldn't help but have a pretty face in her mind, it was a bewitching girl in red, and this herb was given by Ji Xiaoxuan.
[I don't have enough gold coins, senior, this is a medicinal herb Bailing Grass necessary for making [Huang Lingdan], can you help me auction it, and see if the gold coins can be used to offset the Qingyang Sword!] γ
In front of everyone's eyes, the mercenary warriors in the audience looked at the lark grass in Xuan Yue's hand.
In an instant, the hall became noisy like a tide, and the station elder Qin stared at the young man in front of him with an incredulous gaze, and said in a trembling voice: [Ju-it's actually a lark grass! γ
