The Truth of Magic Chapter 400: The Way
Zhao Xu didn't go directly to the Mage Association in Zhenyu City, but relied on his memory to head towards the nearby magic material shop.
"Why is it called the black market?" Vivian was still a little hard to understand.
"Because it cannot be exposed to the sun. The source of the magic items itself is not clear."
"Stealing? Cheating?" As a paladin, Vivienne couldn't help feeling uncomfortable when she heard this behavior.
"They are all, but more are dug out from the ground." Zhao Xu gave Vivian a vague glance.
Vivian couldn't help but stop.
Like Zhao Xu, she looked back around her surroundings, her pupils on the veil like cut autumn water.
"Tomb and ruins?"
said that Vivian nodded herself and said, "The Northern Alliance is close to the Icefield Mountains. I have indeed established a Mage Alliance force that spans more than 500 years, but it was destroyed during the cataclysm. That said, you can indeed dig out treasures from the ground."
Zhao Xu didn't expect Vivian's Arthur's geography and history to be well mastered.
He also relied on his own knowledge (place) and knowledge (history) to guess and retrieve this information, connecting the whole context, and deliberating a major reason for the emergence of the black market.
It is reasonable to say that succubus is generally proficient in one knowledge and skill, and can reach the level of more than ten ranks, and will not practice as many knowledge and skills as their mage.
Even like Zhao Xu, who is nearly fully studied is unique.
Fortunately, after his intelligence is as high as 28 points, among the skill points he will get from the upgrade in the future, there are at least 9 points from intelligence, which can already cover the knowledge and skills and upgrade together.
"Let's go."
Zhao Xu had already walked to a material store with a clock and flag on the doorway. The storefront was so ragged that it hadn't been repaired for many years.
"There will be magic items in this kind of store?" Vivian was a little unbelievable.
"This is a magical item worth tens of thousands of dollars. I definitely won't put it here." Zhao Xu smiled.
"You have to go in first and prove that you are a buyer, then they will take us to those underground houses."
"Then the chess piece of the mechanical clock means that this storefront is the entrance?" Vivian was a little confused.
"No, this means that the other party sells antiques and artworks, and these things themselves are often mixed with magic items that can last for many epochs, basically through the same channel." Zhao Xu explained.
"Antique?"
As Vivian, who has endless life, it is difficult to understand the term "antique". For them, it is not a problem to store any stone coin for thousands of years.
Especially the demons are likely to have dealt with a family spanning seven or eight generations from beginning to end, and they can even collect the souls of every generation of the other family.
"Antiques, you can understand them as previous works of art. As for your stone broomsticks that have not been used for thousands of years, they are called second-hand goods. They are not the same." Zhao Xu quickly corrected.
, he opened the curtain and walked into this material store.
Compared with the small and small storefronts seen outside, after Zhao Xu entered at this moment, on the cabinet that touched the sky, neatly stacked rows of glass bottles and jars, which contained all kinds of Casting materials.
Zhao Xu is not unfamiliar with most of them because he owns a full watch.
On the other side of the cabinet, there are a lot of old and peculiar items stacked, including simple swords like noble sabers, and scarred shields. At the same time, there are also some magical objects, accessories, bottles and jars stacked. There are various small samples like this.
Sitting behind the counter is an old man with a fur hat, his cheeks are thin, his whole body leaning on the top seat.
"What to buy?"
"Look at the old stuff." Zhao Xu answered the coded words.
"How many of them can I give?"
"It's not a problem to break a hundred."
The old man’s eyes brightened, "So you point to the goods on my cabinet and pick one?"
At this time, Zhao Xu was not far away from the cabinet, but stopped and kept scanning the contents on those cabinets.
"No? What quantifier is it?" Vivian asked.
"This is because we are afraid of being interrupted by your laymen when we exchange prices. It does not have a fixed price, and even according to the price of magic items, there are 10,000 gold coins and the same for one gold coin."
"The one in my sentence just now refers to one hundred gold coins."
Vivian nodded this time. Zhao Xu said that he could break a hundred, that is, the budget he brought this time exceeded 10,000, and he also set the direction for the place where the old man would lead the way.
Zhao Xu slowly approached and carefully observed the "goods" on the shelves, but he did not reach out his hand.
In fact, he can now cast the minute-level three-ring spell "Secret Magic Vision". This spell allows him to emit a radar like "Detection Magic" all the time, and at the same time it has a wider scale. , Can reach tens of meters away.
is just a spell because it can be undone, he cannot last.
But when he is 7th level, the 2nd level ability of the Spell Guardian is the spell of the same name, "Secret Vision", which is not a big problem.
"What does this old man mean?" Vivian asked curiously.
"Prove our ability. Buying something from him is the price he guarantees that we will enter the black market. Otherwise, we outsiders, how can we get in so easily."
Before he became the vice president of the Starfall Mage Association, Zhao Xu deliberately came to the black market. He was afraid that he would be delayed. His actions were too eye-catching, and he was likely to be paid attention to or even intercepted. leak.
"So we have to pick something that doesn't look expensive and can't be a big loss?" Vivian reacted immediately.
"Yes, I have to pick the real one." Zhao Xu said.
"If we miss our eyes, it means that we are novices who don't know how to do it at all. So whether we are right or not, he will take it, but we go to a real black shop that specializes in fraud and slaughter." Zhao Xu Speaking of it, there are still lingering fears.
He had suffered this kind of loss in his previous life.
Fortunately, in this life, he just flipped the chessboard after a big deal. However, Zhao Xu would not do such a low price unless he had to do it.
Skills are not as good as humans, so just be willing to go downhill.
Seeing Zhao Xu's full attention and carefully observing before the value, Vivian, who does not have the ability to practice appraisal, is also helpless.
She couldn't help but telepathically said: "You might as well let me negotiate with him."
Vivian, who is born with a high charm, is actually only in her early twelfth level. What is really amazing is her 19th-level bluffing and intimidating skills.
"If everything goes according to the rules, you won't suffer a loss without rules." Zhao Xu said.
At this time, Vivian of the "lawful and kind" camp looked at Zhao Xu from the "neutral and kind" camp, and she looked like she was the more orderly party.
Although she was a chaotic evil little succubus before.
After hesitating for a while, Zhao Xu pointed directly to a book in the lower right corner, "How much does this cost?"
The old man smiled immediately. He almost choked while smoking a pipe, and then said after a while: "It's a very old arcane book, worth 100 gold coins."
"Give me a look?" Zhao Xu said.
At this time, he was clearly standing in front of the cabinet, but he was unmoved.
The eyes of the old man suddenly shone, and he stretched out his hand on the cane, and moved it step by step.
His rhythm was very slow throughout the whole process, as if he was anxious about the patience of the two of them.
But Zhao Xu has been waiting, knowing that the other party picked up the magic book and placed it on a mahogany box covered with silk brocade.
Zhao Xu took the book with confidence.
"Afraid of accident?" Vivian already understood the meaning of Zhao Xu's actions at this moment.
"That is, if I pick up the whole book and spread it out to blame anyone, including the jade, let alone I didn't even know the price just now."
Zhao Xu said.
This business is sometimes a lifetime transaction, and sometimes it is also a one-off transaction.
In his previous life, he also helped Zhang Qi~IndoMTL.com~ to fool fake products with egg whites.
"You humans, it's too complicated." Vivienne commented. She couldn't help but touch her waist, but she felt empty, which reflected that his Holy Avenger had accelerated with the mithril all over his body. Put the first back into the dimensional bag together.
Zhao Xu patiently turned a few pages at this time. After his own full-level 9th-level "spell recognition" was added to the 9th-level intelligence bonus, the entire 18th-level spell recognition can be said to be outstanding.
The current player first.
In an instant, he saw something strange from this random magic book.
"I can see up to 70 of these books." Zhao Xu gave his price.
Needless to say, at this time his "a" means a gold coin.
"President, don't cut a stroke?" Vivienne was a little bit incomprehensible for a moment. In their abyss, a discount on meeting is the most basic courtesy.
"Here, if you bargain more than half of the price, it means you think the other party deliberately slaughtered you, and he will drive you away in the next second." Zhao Xu said in a bad mood.
In the eyes of professionals like magic items and magic books, the error in price estimation is basically no more than 10%.
"What book is this then?" Vivian struggled to identify the mysterious text on the cover.
