Chapter 488: The Joy of Being an Ordinary Person

readx;

The two of them left for a while, and when they returned to the auction, they had become two other people, a tall and honest fat man, and a mediocre-looking girl from the countryside, who were really ordinary in the lively streets, and no one could have imagined that they were the focus of everyone's attention just now.

Under the dredging of the city defense army, nobles from various cities in the Cassie Empire, and even from other countries, entered the auction center one after another.

When Sophie arrived here, she didn't go straight to the auction house as Han Shuo expected, but dragged Han Shuo to continue to wander around the small stalls, buying some fancy ornaments that had no practical value with great interest.

"This thing is worth three gold coins at most!" Sophie said to the stall owner with a crystal button in her hand.

"Miss, you are a beautiful crystal from the southern part of the Bart Merchant Alliance, less than five gold coins, you can't buy it anywhere!" said the stall owner, a thin middle-aged man, with a sincere expression on his face, seriously.

"Hehe, this kind of crystal is available there, look at it, the color is not particularly bright, and the workmanship of the buttons is so rough, you dare to say that it is the Blue Dream Crystal in the south of the Bart Business Alliance! Ha, you really dare to talk nonsense! No, look, the broken crystal on my chain is the Blue Dream Crystal, you take a closer look at the difference in luster!" Sophie took out a crystal necklace from her pocket and shook it in front of the stall owner, signaling him to see the real Blue Dream Crystal clearly.

In this kind of place, there is usually no one wearing the space ring, so when she came in, Sophie not only put away the space ring herself, but also asked Han Shuo to put the space ring away, so that the two of them could no longer find anything different from ordinary people.

When the stall owner saw that he couldn't fool Sophie, his face sank, and he said, "That's it, four gold coins, if you want it, don't forget it!"

"Three gold coins! Only three gold coins! You button is crudely made, it's only worth this price! Look at the inlay between the button and the crystal, there is a very fine scratch here, and here......" Sophie became an expert, chattering about the shortcomings of this crystal button.

Han Shuo looked at Sophie dumbfounded, listening to her unceremoniously belittled the crystal button for a gold coin, he really didn't know what she was for.

Finally, under Sophie's series of bombardments, the stall owner took the initiative to lose, and handed the crystal button to Sophie with a wry smile, saying, "Take the three gold coins." Why do you have to buy it if you're saying it's useless?"

"Ahh Sophie said a good word for the first time, happily buttoned the crystal button at the corner of her clothes, looked at Han Shuo with a smile and asked, "How is it, is it good?"

"It's okay!" Han Shuo replied, paused, and added, "It's a good match for what you are now!"

This kind of pseudo-jewelry with poor material and rough workmanship really has no highlights except for the chic shape. However, now Sophie's appearance is also very mediocre, and with this kind of ordinary and shoddy jewelry, it complements each other a little.

Sophie obviously heard the meaning of Han Shuo's last words, glanced at Han Shuo angrily, and snorted lightly, "Boss, ask him for money." Hmph, I want you to mock me on purpose!"

Three gold coins were really nothing to Han Shuo, but Sophie's attitude made Han Shuo feel a little funny and angry, and he casually took out three gold coins and handed them to the stall owner, Han Shuo followed behind Sophie and asked, "It's just a few gold coins, there's no need to waste time haggling with your wealth, right?"

Sophie is a sky knight, and his father Su Luo is a famous paladin in the Cassie Empire, no matter how you look at it, Sophie is by no means a person who is short of money, such a character chatters and argues with hawkers over a few gold coins, which really makes Han Shuo baffled.

"What do you know, only at this time can I feel that I am an ordinary person!" Sophie glanced at Han Shuo and said with a point.

Han Shuo was stunned for a moment, his mind turned for a moment, and then he looked at the troubles that flashed in Sophie's eyes, and immediately understood the meaning of Sophie's words in his heart.

As the daughter of the paladin Suro, Sophie should be treated as a pearl in her palm as soon as she was born, it is estimated that anyone from childhood to adulthood regards Sophie as a little princess, and as long as Sophie likes money and treasures, she wants to have it easily. It is precisely because of this that Sophie should not have experienced the life of an ordinary person, so she will not be interested in the auction where celebrities gather, but linger in the stalls of such small traders and vendors.

Han Shuo lived in an ordinary person's home in the last world, and after his soul crossed over to the Qiao Continent, his birth was even more humble, he had already been accustomed to this kind of life, so he wouldn't have so much enthusiasm for this kind of thing, unless there were some strange items, Han Shuo really couldn't enjoy much fun in this kind of place.

"Oh, by the way, why did you end up here?" Sophie walked out of a distance, and suddenly remembered this question, and then Sophie looked at Han Shuo with some surprise, and said, "You're also happy to have fun in this kind of place, right?" Ha, I should have guessed that from your clothes and space ring, it can be seen that you should have been born very well, it seems that we are still confidants!"

Looking at Sophie's self-righteous understanding, Han Shuo shook his head with a smile and said calmly: "I was not born as well as you, I suffered all kinds of hardships when I was young, the reason why I came to this kind of place is because people who know goods in this kind of place can indeed find good things!"

"No, there's something good going to be in a place like this!" Sophie was obviously not convinced, she was haunting such places purely for fun, and she didn't think that there was anything really valuable in such a place.

"You don't believe it?" Han Shuo looked at Sophie with a smile, as if he was going to prove it to her.

"Don't believe it!" Seeing Han Shuo's posture, Sophie was even more categorical.

"Follow me!" Han Shuo hooked his hand at Sophie, turned around and walked to another area, looking like he really intended to prove it to Sophie.

Sophie really didn't believe it, and hurriedly followed Han Shuo, and said in her heart, I'll just see what the hell you can do?

After squeezing seventy or eighty meters in the endless crowd, Han Shuo stopped in front of an inconspicuous stall, picked up a gray ordinary stone casually, looked at the stall owner with a smile and said, "Boss, how many gold coins is this stone?"

"Oh, five gold coins, if you really want to buy it, I can buy it cheaper!" replied the stall owner casually.

"It's just five gold coins!" Han Shuo didn't have Sophie's special hobby, so he casually took out five gold coins from the spatial ring in his pocket and handed them to the stall owner.

This time, Sophie didn't dwell on the price because she had doubts, and she hurriedly caught up with Han Shuo when she saw Han Shuo leave the stall. This place was already remote, and Han Shuo walked a few steps to a very remote corner waiting for Sophie.

Looking at the gray stone in Han Shuo's palm, Sophie was surprised and said, "This is what you said was a good thing? Any mine, there are such gray stones all over the ground, I don't see what value it has!"

Shaking his head with a smile, Han Shuo said, "Don't be in a hurry to define it first, bring me your weapon!"

Sophie didn't know why, but according to what Han Shuo said, she took out the long sword from the space ring and handed it to Han Shuo, and the exquisite long sword was valuable at a glance.

Han Shuo touched a scabbard, felt the smoothness and warmth of the gems inlaid on the scabbard, looked at Sophie with a smile and said, "Sure enough, it's a rich man!

"Don't be poor, I'd like to see how you prove that this stone is a good thing!" Sophie crossed her hands on her chest, smiling as she waited for Han Shuo's proof.

Han Shuo smiled and didn't continue to say anything, he pulled her long sword out of the scabbard in front of Sophie, and flicked the tip of the sword with his fingers, "Dang", the long sword let out a crisp sound.

Under Sophie's gaze, the gray stone in Han Shuo's palm fell layer upon layer of gray powder under the force of his five fingers, and these powders evenly fell on the blade of Sophie's long sword, and the gray stone turned into powder under the light sprinkling back and forth, and then a strange flame rose from Han Shuo's palm.

Sophie was taken aback, looked at the flames in Han Shuo's palm in surprise, and said, "You also have a combination of fire magic?

Smiling at Phoebe and shaking his head, Han Shuo didn't explain why he was able to ignite a flame in the palm of his hand without the fire element, but reminded Sophie, "Watch carefully!"

After he said this, Sophie didn't ask any more questions, but focused her attention, her eyes fixed on Han Shuo's movements. Under Sophie's sparkling gaze, Han Shuo pressed the flame in his palm towards the blade of the long sword facing the ground, and under the roasting of the flame in Han Shuo's palm, the long sword in Sophie's hand slowly became extremely hot.

"Be careful, this is a gift from my father when I became a Sky Knight, don't break it!" Sophie told Han Shuo with some heartache as she watched Han Shuo use the flames to bake her sword.

Giving Sophie a reassuring look, Han Shuo's brows tightened, and the Demon Yuan Power secretly worked, pouring into the inside of the long sword through the hand holding the hilt of the sword. Under the dual action of flame and magic power, the gray powder on the front-facing blade strangely dissolved into the blade of the long sword.

"Huh!" Sophie snorted softly, taken aback by what she saw in her eyes, and exclaimed incredibly, "I can't see it, you're still an alchemist!"

Han Shuo didn't answer, and continued to concentrate on dissolving the condensate stone into the blade, watching as all the powder disappeared into the blade of the long sword little by little.

Condensate Stone Han Shuo discovered yesterday, this is a strange material that increases the density of weapons and can make energy flow faster, in the Demon Cultivator's Refining Treasure Book, Condensate Stone is a very useful stone, but in this world, Han Shuo found that no one knows its function at all.

There were a lot of condensate stones in the Golden Absolute Land of Qiluo Mountain, and Han Shuo had already mixed an appropriate amount of condensate stones in the Demon Killing Blade, so when he saw the condensate stones here yesterday, although Han Shuo was surprised in his heart, he didn't buy them. This time, in order to prove to Sophie that there is indeed a treasure in this kind of place, I went here to buy a piece.

By the time all the condensate powder had dissolved into the blade, the temperature of the blade was already very hot. At this moment, the flame of the other blade baked in Han Shuo's palm suddenly turned from red to purple, and a light smoke rose from the sword blade only to hear the "squeak" sound, this was due to the natural phenomenon of the high temperature suddenly cooling.

"Be careful, you guy, you won't take the opportunity to use my long sword to do alchemy experiments, right?" Sophie was still very worried about the long sword, and while reminding Han Shuo to be careful, she wondered if Han Shuo had bad intentions.

"Take it, inject the fighting qi into it, and see what is the difference from usual?" Han Shuo didn't answer Sophie's question, but threw the long sword to Sophie along with the scabbard.

Hurriedly stretched out his hand to pick up the long sword, and as soon as he got his hand, Sophie exclaimed in surprise and said, "It's a few pounds heavier!"

Sophie watched Han Shuo grind a fist-sized stone into powder in the palm of his hand and dissolve it into the long sword, she couldn't figure out how just some stone powder could increase the weight of the long sword by several catties, which was obviously very magical.

"Try vindictiveness. Han Shuo reminded with a smile.

With surprise, Sophie immediately injected the fighting qi into the long sword in her hand, only to see that Sophie injected the fighting qi, and the long sword suddenly lit up with a silver fighting qi light, and the speed was faster than Sophie imagined.

"How, how is it possible?!" Sophie exclaimed, looked at Han Shuo in disbelief, and hurriedly said, "The long sword's reflexes to fighting qi have improved a lot!"

"Yes, that's what that stone does! You should know that at a critical moment, you can unleash your power as soon as you enter the long sword, what does this mean in battle!" Han Shuo said to Sophie with a straight face.

"I understand, this means that you can take the lead, and you may even be able to turn the tide in a close battle!" Sophie exclaimed, immediately looking at Han Shuo with her eyes shining, and said, "It's amazing, how did you do it?
