Coming to the woods outside the city, Hale saw the apprentice sneaking up in front of a dilapidated wooden hut and knocking rhythmically seven times.

This wooden house is in tatters, it seems that no one has lived in it for a long time, how can there be anyone?

While Hall was startling, the door suddenly opened, and the apprentice said something strange to the door, which Hall didn't hear clearly because of the distance.

Then the apprentice slipped through the wooden door, which creaked shut.

Hale touched his chin and decided to go check it out, so he also walked to the wooden door and knocked seven times in a decent way.

After a while, the door opened, and I saw a large bearded man standing inside the door, almost hunched over because of his height.

The big man had a square face, his eyes were a little angry, and he said viciously: "Password!"

Hall was stunned for a moment, where did he know what the code was, so he said with a smile: "Uncle, I am with the Luffy in front, and he brought me to see the world." ”

The big man was stunned for a moment, and said fiercely: "How do I know if that person is called Luffy!"

"I don't believe you, go ask him. Hall laughed slyly.

The big man touched his chin and said, "Come in! I see that you don't have any skills, so you can't make any trouble." ”

"Thank you, uncle!" Hall grinned and walked past the big man, and then shouted, "Luffy, Luffy, you bastard, wait for me! ”

At the end of the narrow cloister, you will come to a stone staircase.

The stairs stretched to the ground, lit by dim candlelight, and the ground was so damp that Hale could clearly hear the noise coming from below.

He didn't hesitate and walked on. After passing through the staircase, my eyes suddenly opened up, and I saw that this was an underground square, with a very wide area, and it was full of people.

There are more than a hundred people here, most of them are dressed as apprentices, and a few are dressed as magicians, but they are not of high rank.

Everyone's eyes were focused on a half-man-high stone platform in front of them, which was unpretentious, square, and small in area, with a few steps on the left and right.

Hall made his way to the back of the crowd and, with his petite stature, slipped in.

When I came to the front row, I saw a gray-robed magician standing on the platform, he was wearing a wide pointed hat, the brim of which covered his eyes, and he couldn't see what his appearance was.

The only great magician was probably the most powerful person here, and he said in a hoarse and deep voice: "Everyone, please be quiet, I am the presiding officer of this fair, and in order to maintain order, I will stop anyone who fights in the venue." Magic does not have long eyes, in order to prevent unnecessary sacrifices, please restrain yourself, do not see the treasure and cannot hold it. Out of the code name Zero Club, you can fight as much as you want. ”

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, the senior mage nodded and said, "According to the previous practice, first of all, the free trade fair, and then the Zero Club will show three superb treasures for everyone to bid. Now the free trade begins!"

After saying that, he stepped off the stage, sat down on a rattan chair under the stage, and began to recuperate.

Hall finally understood that the so-called code name Zero Club was actually an underground trade fair. It's a rare opportunity for people to sell their treasures and find what they want in a trade fair like this, because Hall wants some magic scrolls, but I don't know if anyone will sell them.

At this moment a tall, thin apprentice walked up, and he covered his face with a black cloth, so that he could not see clearly.

This tall and thin apprentice came to the center of the platform, and said in a trembling voice: "I have an ice and snow lotus here, the medicinal age is thirty years, it is a necessity used by the water system mage to refine the 'spiritual power improvement potion', and the starting price is only five gold coins!"

The audience became noisy again, and immediately someone shouted, "Five and a half!"

A first-level mage in a brown robe glared at the person and said, "If you can't afford it, don't just raise the price, this ice and snow lotus is a rare medicinal material, thirty years is relatively rare, there are about ten gold coins on the market, I will give thirteen gold coins, trade it to me directly!"

At first, the man listened to him nagging for a long time, and did not say a word, but opened his mouth and said, "Thirteen and a half!"

The tall and thin apprentice on the stage was pleasantly surprised, the number of water magicians was not much, and it was already good to be able to sell seven or eight gold coins, but now it has reached thirteen and a half gold coins, which is really good.

The brown-robed mage was a little angry, and said, "Do you have the intention to go against me? Fifteen gold coins, don't say anything, I won't buy it no matter how high it is." ”

The man snorted and walked out of the dim place, only then did everyone see that it was a demon swordsman in black leather armor, and the demon swordsman raised his hand and said, "Fifteen and a half." ”

Seeing this, the mage's nose almost smoked with anger, and he scolded: "Boy, you are a demon swordsman, you only need fire-based medicinal materials, why do you have to rob me!

"Can't I buy it for my little lover? You old man also cultivates water magic, no wonder you are a sissy. The magic swordsman pursed his lips, unable to comprehend the mage's thoughts.

"Hahaha!" everyone laughed.

"I can't buy it, but you can't challenge the dignity of the magician!" the magician was annoyed, and in his left hand, an ice sword was formed in the palm of his hand.

Phew!—Suddenly a gust of wind rose, and all the torches around him flickered.

Holden felt a tightness in his chest, and he found that there was a powerful force around him at some point, which frightened him. Sweating coldly.

The crisp sound of ice freezing suddenly sounded behind the magician, and then with a click, the magician was frozen in the ice along with the ice sword in his hand.

"Do you take my words as wind in your ears?" the gray-robed mage stood up at some point and said, "Then you can freeze here for a while." ”

Everyone was silent, all frightened by the gray-robed mage's might just now. Some of the apprentices with shallow mana were all trembling all over their bodies and their faces were pale.

The face of the demon swordsman was almost dark, because he had insulted the water mage just now, and judging from the tricks of this gray-robed mage, he was also a water mage. This freezing technique is equivalent to giving yourself a dismount.

In the face of such a powerful coercion, the demon swordsman was so frightened that he didn't dare to let go.

The great magician is really very terrifying, Hall looked at the mage, and his heart was full of envy, and he didn't know when he would be as majestic as him.

After a while, everyone stopped paying attention to the ice sculpture, and normal trading resumed.

Most of the people on the stage went up with medicinal herbs, because the medicine valley of the Academy of Magic is a paradise for growing wild magical medicines, and the medicinal herbs in it are all wild, and if you are lucky, you can collect valuable medicinal herbs.

Although they had to search their bodies when they left the Medicine Valley, there were always some people who could bring out the precious medicinal materials to exchange for gold coins.

The rest of the traders took out some beast materials, such as animal skins and animal teeth, which were some raw materials for making weapons, and were loved by the magic swordsmen.

Hall watched and studied at the same time, many things he had never touched before, and he didn't know how effective they were, which was tantamount to teaching himself a lesson.

About half an hour later, an apprentice with a pimple-riddled face and a small stature in tattered clothes walked up.

He looked at the people in the audience, obviously a little embarrassed, but lowered his head and said: "I have an alchemy scroll to sell, which records all the alchemy rules of the first-level apprentice and the second-level apprentice, does anyone want it? I only need fifty silver coins to buy a winter dress." ”

"Hahaha!" everyone in the audience laughed again, the alchemists or apprentices here have their own scrolls, and if they are wizards and magicians, they don't need this kind of thing at all, so no one buys them at all.

Stealing this kind of thing and selling it is very risky, and it is not worth much, it seems that this apprentice is really poor and crazy.

Seeing the crowd laughing, the apprentice became even more shy and bowed his head deeply.

At this time, the gray-robed mage who was presiding over the trade fair next to him snorted coldly and said, "If you don't sell it, don't come up and make trouble!"

Just as the apprentice was about to step down in despair, a voice rang out: "Ten gold coins!"
