Banner of the Evil God

Palin had never been influenced by Chinese culture, so of course he would not have Sui Xiong's thoughts. But he is a devout believer, and he will honestly comply with the requirements of his gods even if they are not in line with his wishes.

So after his persuasion failed, he still went to the clerk to inquire about the price, preparing to buy the exquisite enchanted long dagger.

However, after asking about the price, even a man as smart as Sui Xiong couldn't help but feel pain in his tentacles.

"This 'Ice Soul' is worth 70,000 gold coins." The weapon shop clerk said lightly.

Palin's eyes widened. Even though he was mentally prepared, he was stunned by the shockingly high price.

After a while, he couldn't help but ask: "It's just an enchanted long dagger. Is it so expensive? I've seen high-end daggers. Tens of thousands of gold coins would be worth it!"

The clerk looked at him with a sneer, not even bothering to explain. He just snorted with disdain and went to clean a long, bright knife.

This kind of bumpkins who have never been seen in the market are like skeletons in the ashes forest, there is an endless supply. The store manager has ordered that anyone who cannot see the true mystery of the "Ice Soul" will not sell this weapon to him if he has money!

Palin felt bored and wanted to ask a few more questions, but he was too embarrassed to lick his face and come closer. He had to walk out of the weapon shop unhappy, planning to go to a hotel to stay first.

But he had only taken a few steps when he was stopped by a thin but well-dressed child next to him.

"Wise mage, do you want to buy something good? Please go to the Good Eyesight grocery store!"

Judging from the kid's smiling expression and skillful sales style, it was obvious that he was waiting outside the weapons store, specifically selling to down-and-out adventurers whose souls had been hurt.

"Master, you haven't come to our Dragon Roar Town often before, have you?" The child said in a familiar manner, "If you are familiar with Long Roar Town, you will definitely not go to the black shop of 'Dragon Slaying Sword'!"

Palin immediately nodded repeatedly, feeling deeply that the child was right. A mere enchanted long dagger actually costs 70,000 gold coins, why don't they go and grab it!

...No, it’s not as easy to make money as a profiteer if you rob! The Orc Wolf Cavalry Group had been snatching 70,000 gold coins for five years, but they only managed to save 50,000 gold coins!

In the past few days, in order to prepare for the pioneer village, they have entered Ruhr's treasure house again.

Rhodes' skills were as good as Renn's, and he took down all the traps along the way without much effort - in fact, although those traps were very dangerous and powerful, they were quite old and outdated. Rhodes They even repackaged some of the better ones and sold them as antiques in the thieves guild's grocery store. The price tags were actually not low, and one of them had already been sold in the past few days.

A total of 50,000 gold coins were sorted out in Ruhr's treasure house. The remaining antiques and magic items were either clearly marked and difficult to get rid of, or were too dangerous to be sold - the former was represented by a set of exquisite jewelry, with the The light-winged angel badge, which symbolizes the royal family of the Holy Angel Kingdom, made Rhodes break into cold sweat. Especially when he carefully counted the number of angel wings on the badge, his face turned pale; the latter was represented by a very hard finger bone. Surrounded by black magical energy, Satan was so frightened that he took several steps back and almost hit his head on the stone wall and was bleeding.

Well, the former is a collection of the royal family of the most extreme and aggressive kingdom in the world today, and it belongs to a prince within three generations; the latter is the soul box of an evil lich. After it is killed, it will be The finger bones serve as coordinates to return to the earthly world.

If the former is exposed, the Holy Angel Kingdom will definitely send experts to the four northwest towns, not only to take back this set of jewelry, but also to kill the entire family of the despicable businessman who has tarnished the honor of the great royal family; the latter is not afraid of exposure, but who knows what will happen. When will the Lich suddenly resurrect?

Although in terms of value, the set of jewelry and the soul box are far more than a mere 50,000 gold coins, as long as they are not crazy, no one will think of selling them - of course, even if the seller is crazy, We also need to find a buyer who is also crazy and not afraid of death!

Although Palin comes from a merchant family, he is far from wealthy. In his opinion, fifty thousand gold coins is already a dizzying sum of money. However, that damn "Dragon-Slaying Sword" weapon shop actually priced an enchanted long dagger at seventy thousand, and said "Don't buy it" "I don't care about your loss" attitude really made him feel angry.

At this moment, listening to the child criticizing this black shop, I suddenly felt that I had met a close friend, and he kept expressing his agreement.

"The black shop actually relies on a few high-quality enchanted weapons to attract people, such as the 'Ice Soul' and the 'Tree Elder'... But the prices are all too high, at least several times more expensive." He is obviously an expert, or at least the person who taught him these words is an expert, "As for the 'Dragon Slaying Sword' hanging on the pillar in the center of the shop... Haha, that's a joke! You can use that knife well. Why can't people slay dragons? In other words, how can a strong man who can slay dragons care about that broken knife? "

Palin, who had already heard similar comments from Sui Xiong, was speechless. He finally understood why his Majesty was disdainful of the dragon-slaying sword, but instead became a little interested in the long dagger.

The vision of the gods is indeed beyond the comparison of a mere mortal mage!

"By the way, did you know? There is a story behind this knife." The child said with a smile, "Thirty years ago, the former mayor of this town was lucky enough to make a windfall. At that time, there were people in the Orc Empire east of the Great Gobi. A famous cat tribe beauty whose singing and dancing skills are unparalleled in the world. He spent a lot of money to buy a beautiful gem, hoping to win her heart with this gem - what do you think of this idea? "

Palin thought for a while and shook his head: "Not very reliable."

"Yeah, it's not reliable at all! As a result, he was caught up by the extreme cold tyrant in the Gobi Desert before he reached the Orc Empire. At that time, he showed incredible courage and fought with the dragon for this gem. One..."

"Dead?" Palin asked.

"No. Killing a fool like this would undermine the majesty of the dragon, so the dragon sent him all the way back to the village and hung him on a big tree with a long strip of cloth hanging on his body. , the banner read 'This is the bravest pervert I have ever seen, and also the weakest'."

Palin laughed heartily, not only laughing at the mayor's overestimation of his abilities, but also amused by the dragon's humor.

"After being rescued, the mayor asked someone to make this 'dragon-slaying sword', and claimed that he would give the sword to anyone who was willing to go into the mountains to slay the dragon. As you can see, thirty years later, the town mayor The chief has changed twice, but the knife is still hanging there."

The two chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the "Good Eyesight" grocery store. This grocery store is not small. Judging from the walls and facade, it seems to have a long history. It can be called an old store.

Old Soth once taught Palin that if you want to buy something in an unfamiliar place, you have only two choices: either a well-known big store or an old store with a long history. The former definitely has a wide range of channels and a sufficient supply of goods, while the latter probably pays attention to credibility, and they are both worthy partners.

As soon as he entered the door, the child shouted with a smile: "Axue! Axue! I have a guest for you again! No carrots are allowed in my vegetable soup tonight!"

"Children are not allowed to be picky eaters, or they will grow taller!" A middle-aged woman said and walked out of the inner room. Her facial features were pretty, and she was probably a beauty when she was young. It's just that her body is a little too fat and her height is a little too tall. She walks very vigorously, making the floor beneath her feet groan vaguely.

With three steps and two steps at a time, the female boss known as "Axue" came to Palin, grabbed the child, picked it up like a chicken and put it aside, then smiled and said to Palin: " This guest, our 'Good Eyesight' grocery store is an old store that has been in business for almost 40 years. It specializes in selling all kinds of groceries, as well as many things left by previous adventurers. It is said to be cheap and good. Come and visit, you won’t be disappointed! ”

Palin shrank slightly in fear. Although this aunt was just an ordinary person, she was really extraordinary. Especially the huge physical difference between the two sides made him feel very insecure.

But he reacted immediately - he was a spell caster! He is a mage! Even among adventurers, he is considered high-end, why should he be afraid of an ordinary person!

So he stood up straight again, wanting to show his aura as a mage. However, the dwarf was originally short in height, but the female boss named "Axue" was tall among humans. The nearly double height difference made his efforts meaningless.

Boss Ashue didn't care about the little mage's attitude. She said with a smile: "This guest, what do you want to buy?"

"...Actually, I was just looking around, and there was nothing I particularly wanted to buy."

"I understand! Then you are really in the right place - we have a product in our store that you must be interested in!" Boss Ashue laughed and dragged out a large box that was almost as tall as Palin from behind the counter. The box was filled with all kinds of equipment and was messy.

"These are all purchased from adventurers, and they have not been inspected or appraised. There should be a lot of junk inside, but there must be some good things that have not been discovered. Now, with only ten gold coins, you can choose any one among them. Take it away." Boss A Xue said with a smile, "This is our store's special product, "picking up the missing items". Whether you make a profit or not depends on your eyesight. "

Palin was stunned for a moment, looked at the messy box of equipment, frowned and asked, "Can I use the identification spell?"

"Of course not! The so-called detection of leaks is to test the school's eyesight." Boss Ashue's answer was not unexpected, "If you use magic to identify it, it will be meaningless!"

"The joy and satisfaction in selecting the truly valuable things from a bunch of inconspicuous things is the real treasure!"

The chubby aunt smiled very happily, with a bright light in her eyes that ordinary businessmen would never have.
