Chapter 6 Swamp Godhead!
July 8775, 7 of the Glorious Era,
The morning mist enveloped the entire city of Loran, and there was a hint of coolness in the air.
Lear, wearing a black cloak that covered his face and left only his eyes exposed, slowly stepped into the most dangerous area of Block 9.
black market.
No matter whether they are some big figures in the underground world or high and mighty noble lords, they all have things that are shady and need to be dealt with in secret.
Because of the power of Loran City, the black market in the Ninth District is famous even in the entire Northern Province.
No matter what goods come here, they can be easily sold.
The black market opens every three days.
Each time it attracts a large number of sellers and buyers, and even speculators who come from far away.
The craziest thing is that the place where huge wealth transactions can be generated is hidden in the poorest slums.
This is undoubtedly a great irony.
Perhaps, this is why slums are qualified to exist?
The black market was built among the ruins of old buildings, with few intact buildings.
Once the black market closed, this place became a deserted ghost town.
But at this moment, people are coming and going in an endless stream, and everywhere you look, there is a sea of heads.
More than half of them, like Lear, concealed their faces in various ways.
There are all kinds of stalls on both sides of the road.
However, there were very few people shouting. They just stood quietly in front of the stalls, waiting for buyers to inquire about the price.
Lear turned his head and looked. The stalls were full of all kinds of things.
Unknown minerals, broken fangs of wild beasts, sharp swords, potions emitting magical fluctuations, half-elf slaves bound with chains, and even, he saw 20 sets of high-level full-body armor engraved with the emblem of the Griffin Empire Royal Legion on one stall!
Can this thing be sold openly?
Only at this moment did Lear directly witness the wildness of the black market.
But he didn't waste any time and started looking for his target.
'It will be sold at the 7rd stall at the entrance of the black market at sunrise on the morning of July 8th.'
This is the seventeenth stall.
Lear thought about it and came to the 23rd stall.
What caught my eye was an old man with gray hair and a broken right arm sitting on a small stool with colorful minerals placed in front of him.
Is this a tomb robber?
Lear could not see any traces, and it was difficult to connect these minerals with tomb robbery.
Who has time to bury minerals in graves?
Well, except for the dwarves.
But there is only this one entrance to the entire black market.
He silently bent down and began to search for the crystal ball.
The old man with the broken arm saw Lear's actions, just glanced at him, and said nothing, still stroking the ink-black ore in his hand.
Li Er was happy with the quiet, but the stall was so small, there were only thirty or forty pieces of minerals, and it wouldn't take long to look through them all, but there was no sign of the crystal ball at all.
He looked at the old man and was about to speak when a ray of warm sunlight pierced through the mist in the sky.
Lighting up the entire city of Loran.
An orange-red sun appeared in sight.
The sun is rising!
At the same time, three men in tattered clothes, carrying large leather bags and smelling of earth, walked up to Lear.
On the backpack of the dull-faced, thin man in the middle, there is a seven-colored bamboo dragonfly stuck diagonally. Its crooked appearance is quite childish.
It looks very strange in this gloomy black market.
The three of them didn't say anything. They looked at the empty space beside them and simply spread out a yellowed and dirty cloth and spread it flat on the ground.
He opened the backpack behind him and began to take out items clumsily.
The man carrying the seven-colored bamboo dragonfly slowly took out a yellow crystal ball from his backpack.
Lear's pupils shrank sharply.
Turning around, I saw that this group of people had already moved to the front of the ore stall and became the 23rd stall!
He took a deep breath, forced himself to suppress his fluctuating emotions, took a few steps, and spoke softly.
"Everyone, can you take a look at these things?"
The three of them immediately looked up at Lear, whose face was covered by his cloak and only a pair of dark eyes could be seen.
The dull-looking man put the crystal ball slightly aside and said in a muffled voice.
"Of course, but if you don't plan to buy it, please be gentle with it. This thing is quite old."
Looking at some items with the dirt still on them, Li Er nodded. "That's natural."
Even the standard armor of the Griffin Empire Royal Legion was for sale. It was not uncommon to find things dug out from a tomb.
He checked it from inside to outside, one thing at a time. After about ten minutes, he slowly held the crystal ball.
Fist-sized and as cold as rock.
The surface is covered with scratches and traces that are difficult to clean from being buried underground for a long time.
The look was a little subtle.
Who would have thought that such an inconspicuous thing could contain a godhood that could drive the world crazy? !
I pondered it carefully for a moment, then let it go casually.
Check out other objects.
The three of them didn't take it seriously, as they were selling exactly the same thing.
If you like each other, everything is easy to talk about.
But it was obvious that this guy just happened to come across and take a look, and they didn't have much hope of selling it, so it would be nice to have someone to gather some attention.
After almost going through all the utensils on the stall, Lear tentatively picked up an ivory bowl.
"What price would you guys like to pay for this?"
The thin and dull man spoke in a low voice.
"10 gold coins, no bargaining."
Lear picked up the second one.
"Then this ivory cup."
"12 gold coins, no bargaining."
After asking seven or eight questions, he pointed lightly.
"This crystal ball?"
"10 gold coins"
When the price was spoken, Lear's eyes were fixed.
After asking about the prices of a few more items, he chose seven with great hesitation. In the end, he reluctantly put four of them back, leaving only three.
"Hey guys, I'm buying three at once, can you give me some discount?"
When the dull man saw that Li Er really wanted to buy something, his face became a little more lively, no longer looking like a dead tree.
Even the one-armed old man selling ore turned to take a look.
"We risked our lives to get these. We never bargain for the price. But if you really want to buy, I'll give you 28 gold coins for these three items!"
Li Er's eyes moved slightly and he said seriously.
"How about 20 silver coins? Let's make friends."
The man's face changed when he looked at Li Er. This guy was not trying to bargain for price, he was trying to bargain for people.
"Impossible, this is a price we could never have gotten at the risk of our lives."
The acting had to be done well. After some intensive bargaining, Lear finally bought three ancient items that had just been dug out of the tomb for 20 gold coins.
The yellow crystal ball is among them.
Both parties are very satisfied with the transaction
Only the old man selling the ore had a look of regret in his eyes. If he had known that this was a sucker, he would have introduced him to someone else. Who knew that this guy was so easy to cheat!
As Li Er put away a few items, he suddenly caught sight of the unique colorful bamboo dragonfly on the other person's backpack.
After hesitating for a moment, he spoke slowly.
"Sir, can you bear the pain and give up this bamboo dragonfly?"
The man was stunned for a moment, then silently took off the bamboo helicopter with a smile on his face.
"This is what my daughter gave me this morning. If you like it, I'll give it to you."
daughter?
Lear was silent.
In this cannibalistic world, everyone has an unspeakable experience behind them.
“Thank you for your generosity”
Holding the colorful bamboo dragonfly full of childishness in his hand, Li Er slowly walked out of the black market with a calm face but a surging mood.
Swamp Godhead——the most core thing of the gods!
The most precious treasure in the world is now in his hands!
This is enough to drive anyone crazy!
The corners of his mouth beneath his hood curled up slightly, then gradually expanded until it became wild! !
In just two days, he already had the ultimate weapon!
