229. Transactions with the Jar

After a night's absence, Lan En saw again the rocky shoal in the central watershed of the Longquan River, jutting out of the water level.

This time he was sure that he had received a telepathic communication similar to the cone-shaped crystal that Margarita had given him.

That's why others can't hear it, so the flow of the Longquan River can't cover it up.

Rann struggled to dock the boat to the edge of the shallows.

"Whew-it's not a difficult task to set up a boat in the rapids and the inner lake."

Rolling over, Ryan stepped on the wet rocks of the shallows. He went straight to the edge of the big jar that looked as if it had drifted with the current.

The jar is made of terracotta, and the mouth of the jar is covered with a wooden lid.

When Lan walked in, the wooden lid opened abruptly, and a very strange, even terrifying, hand reached out.

Lan En's footsteps couldn't help but pause and be vigilant, until he saw that the hand had no extra movements, and then cautiously continued to approach.

It was the arm of a creature with a skeleton close to that of a human, but with skin and flesh like that of a squid or slug.

The palm of this hand is half the size of the mouth of the jar, and it is completely unimaginable how the main body of the arm is shrunk into this jar.

"Wow."

Lan En exclaimed, there are a lot of strange things in this place.

"You're going to do business with me?"

The witcher asked tentatively, and the jar seemed to grow more excited by his approach. It even shook slightly, and the sound of the clay jar shaking and the rocks and wooden lids was endless.

"Yes, yes, guest! As long as you give me those scales, everything I have here can be exchanged for you! ”

Lan En didn't know what the legend of this jar was in the Reeda area, but it seemed like a simple transaction to hear what he meant.

Although the scales of the treasure carp should make a lot of money for the witcher if they are taken back, but compared to the goods that this supernatural creature can exchange

Anyway, Lan En thinks that the collection of supernatural creatures is more valuable.

Money, you can earn it at any time.

Anyway, for him, as long as the money is in place, there is no possibility that the magic package produced by Eretusa will be out of stock.

Don't look at what the dean has to do with him?

"If you want to do business, why don't you let people see the goods?"

Lan En clasped his hands to his chest and said very critically to the altar.

The guy in the jar shook even more. Because to see the goods, it means that there is a willingness to trade.

"Well said, guest. That's all easy to say! ”

So the terrifying arm took out the goods one by one and showed them to Lanen.

There are strange pills wrapped in paper, red gourds, scrolls, and so on.

Lan En looked at these eye-catching things, and the people in the jar introduced them to him one by one.

But after listening to it once, the witcher was only interested in two of them.

"'Devouring God'? Why did the pill get that name? Is it really as effective as you say? ”

Lan asked, pointing to the pill wrapped in paper.

The guy in the jar laughed, and his tone sounded like a kind of tone. It's like an aristocracy.

"Genuine deals, guest. One is a life. It doesn't matter if you're beheaded, your heart is broken, you're losing your blood. As long as there is still a breath left, the 'God Eater' can restore people to good condition. ”

"It is made from plants and trees that grow in the ancient land of the reeds. The plants and trees attracted the little gods, and they received the blessings of the gods. If you take this pill, you can say that you have eaten the grace of God! ”

Lan En nodded slightly, he now knew a little about the concept of gods because of his contact with the lady of the lake.

However, the concept of 'gods' in Toei is different, because the concept of 'animism' in Shintoism is among the gods even if they are monsters and plant elves.

"That's a really precious pill."

"Of course." The guy in the jar was very happy, and shook the jar with a 'clang' sound.

"It's not just precious, it's a gem! You must know that since the dragon took root in this land, the little gods have disappeared without a trace. ”

The key word was caught in his ears, and Lan En's eyebrows furrowed.

"You just said. Dragon? ”

How can I meet dragons everywhere!

【Descendants of the Dragon】With a buff, right!?

Fortunately, Lan En had already felt that this world was somewhat unusual, so it was not because of this state of affairs.

"Yes, yes, guest. Alien honorables, alien dragons. After His coming, where did the little local gods go? Hee-hee, hee-hee-hee! ”

The guy in the jar spoke in a tone like a horror story, low and soothing, with a malicious smirk.

He didn't want to say it explicit at all, but only used his tone to guide the listener's reverie into the depths of darkness.

Lan En wasn't afraid, but he also frowned, looking at the pill that could represent 'one life'.

I am afraid that the meaning of "devouring gods" is not "to eat the favor of God", but "to eat the corpse of God", right?

This pill is refined by the 'corpse of God'. So where is the 'life of God'?

This alien dragon doesn't sound like a good stubble

Immediately, Lan En sneered.

He probably won't even get a chance to meet this dragon, and it is pointless to speculate about him.

After all, the name of the reed will be unified by the inner government.

If this is an evil dragon similar to the ancient scriptures, then if he comes out to harm people in the future, it should naturally be taken by the inner government that has unified Dongying.

With great power comes great responsibility.

"What about this? "Floating Boat Crossing"? Just have a name and sell it? ”

Lan En panned his fingers and pointed to the last bundle of scrolls, asking the jar.

"This is a book of swordsmanship."

"Swordsmanship?"

"Yes, guest. This is a move that relies on flowing movements and a high frequency of moves to defeat the enemy. It's a powerful and beautiful sword move! ”

As soon as these words came out, Lan En's originally critical eyes suddenly became firm.

If you want to say that it is powerful, then I guess I will hesitate to concentrate on the next [Reed Celebrity].

But you have to say it's handsome and beautiful

"Let's talk about the price!"

Lan En neatly pulled into the alchemy leather bag on his waist.

"Ahh [Devouring God] only needs one Treasure Carp Scale, and [Floating Boat Crossing] requires five. ”

As the price was quoted, the witcher's face pulled down.

A Treasure Carp Scale is sold to Temeria for the price of a jewel, and it can basically cost 500 Oron. Six is three thousand!

It's so expensive!

"This boss, I don't think your price is reasonable."

"Huh?"

The guy in the jar didn't seem to have met anyone who bought something and bargained, and he was a little blindsided for a while.

"How. How so? ”

"Look. Our trading relies on the scales of the treasure carp, and the smallest unit is one. The fact that God Eater is priced by you as a piece shows that you see it as a benchmark of value. Since it's a benchmark, then I don't have anything to refute, after all, it's you who set the price. But."

"[Floating Boat Crossing] is just a swordsmanship, and [Devouring God] is a second life! Even if there is a gap in value, it will definitely not be opened by five times! ”

"So, this boss, the pricing of your [pontoon ferry] is definitely unreasonable!"

Lan En stepped forward and grabbed the other party's big squid-like hand, and his tone was earnest.

The big hand seemed to be suppressed by the witcher, and it froze there and didn't dare to move.
