The mysterious journey begins with becoming a pirate

Il really couldn't stand the snow splashed by walking on the ground, so he asked Alok to replay yesterday to cover it up. The two of them transformed into gray magpies and flew towards the slums.

El is an expert when it comes to choosing the type of transformation.

She deliberately learned some biological knowledge.

Strive to make your transformation skills have no logical flaws. To avoid being exposed due to such low-level mistakes.

Generally, in cities, birds such as ravens or pigeons are chosen that are widely distributed. In the forest, choose a bird with a wide field of vision like an owl. In mountainous areas, choose eagle or vulture. Choose seagulls at the beach.

In the cold winter, choose gray magpies, common birds that are not afraid of the cold.

As for the animals on land, most of them are cats, which are widely distributed and more flexible.

Of course, under certain circumstances, the choices may be more diverse.

For example, when escaping in an emergency, the bird with the fastest flying speed will be chosen. Swift.

While flying, El also talked to Alok about the black market news:

"That's the place I went to when I was rebelling against will. Ordinary goods are sold a bit cheap. If they are of high quality, they can be sold at a good price. If they are rare goods, they are even more valuable."

"However, there are rebels doing business there. So I don't like going there."

"Moreover, the black market doesn't just sell extraordinary materials, there are also some illegal slave trades and drug trades. The environment and atmosphere are very bad. It's terrible to watch."

Hearing this, Alok continued nonchalantly in his heart:

"Isn't this what the black market should look like? As expected, there are cheap weapons at low prices, and even activated weapons. In terms of slave trading, there may be slaves of extraordinary beings. Princesses who have perished, captured nobles, A strong warrior."

"Tsk~~tsk~~tsk~~ It's possible."

"You think you're writing a novel? It's so imaginative." El complained in his heart.

This made Alok quite dissatisfied. What he said was possible. So I argued in my heart:

"Hey, don't say I didn't warn you. The truth may be even more cruel than this. The princess who lost her country might be a prostitute in disguise, the captured nobles might just be housekeepers, and the strong warriors were once just miners. The black market is evil. Do you think this gathering place is a good place?”

"How can a truly beautiful princess appear here? She has long since become the personal property of perverts; nobles will never be lonely and eventually become capitalists; strong warriors can only fight desperately on the front line to survive. It’s impossible on the battlefield.”

"Okay, Alok. You are really good at making things up. We are almost there." El said speechlessly.

She swooped down and landed on the branch of a big tree with Alok.

Then he found a remote corner and changed his identity. The two stood on the roadside and observed the environment.

"Where is it? Don't let me down." Alok said with some interest.

"Follow me." Elok waved his hand, asking Alok to follow his pace.

The roads in the slums are even muddier, and there are some disgusting things mixed in the snow.

Fortunately, it is winter first, and the sour smell of summer is gone.

But the smell in the sewer still couldn't be concealed.

In complete contrast to Kafka Zone. It doesn't feel like the same city at all.

If it weren't for the towering church that could still be vaguely seen in the distance, Elok would never admit that the two places were not far apart.

The roads here are not marked on Damea's map at all. They are messy and uneven. Very difficult to remember.

Elok took Alok to a deserted alley.

At the end of the alley is a stone wall. The gray look is very unobtrusive. Just like the stone walls that can be seen everywhere on the roadside.

She stepped forward and chanted a spell that Elok had never heard before.

Then, he pushed the stone wall away easily.

Get into it. It is still a twisted alley. Towards unknown places.

Alok glanced into the distance and continued to follow El without knowing what was going on.

"I don't know where this place is. It can only be entered through several secret entrances in the slums. Other methods are completely useless. It's a bit like a secret room." El introduced.

With the passage of time and the pace of progress, the surrounding environment gradually changed.

The surrounding area was replaced by gray, and the sky was covered by something similar to dark clouds. But it is very low, giving people a depressing atmosphere. The light was extremely dim, and the road ahead could only be vaguely seen.

After walking for about ten minutes, Il signaled that Alok had arrived at his destination.

He passed through an iron gate and came to a vast estate that resembled a manor.

Alok observed here, but the scene in front of him made him slightly surprised.

Endless darkness shrouds the place, and the faint green will-o'-the-wisp can illuminate the surrounding area.

Kind of like a cemetery, but without tombstones.

I looked up at the sky and saw no roof.

Is it underground?

An iron fence surrounds this place. There are several iron gates on the fence, exactly like the ones behind Elok.

This scene didn't scare Alok at all. But what surprised and disappointed him was.

There is no one here at all!

Only the messy traces and black blood stains left at the scene could tell that some unpleasant things had happened here.

Hmm~ Maybe it will be very satisfying.

"It looks like we are late." Alok said uselessly.

He looked at his feet, a layer of grayish-white fine soil covered the place, and occasionally one or two large bones could be seen.

He kicked twice, splashing a cloud of dust.

Maybe it was leftover pig bones or something like that.

Of course, it is more likely to be human.

"Let's go back. This place should have been cleared." Il frowned and said.

"Just as I thought." Alok responded calmly.

Seeing this, the two decisively chose to evacuate.

Waiting for Il to turn around and leave, Alok also turned around and walked back without any nostalgia.

"It looks like this was the territory of the Dead Seat or the City of Sleep." Alok said in an uncertain tone.

"How do you know?" Il asked in confusion.

"There are ashes under my feet. It looks like a cemetery." Alok shrugged and answered nonchalantly.

"Well~~~Is this a good judgement?" Il asked in confusion.

Alok laughed twice and said nonchalantly

"Of course not. But there are some messages on the sea of ​​spiritual power. Use your will core to feel the breath on the sea of ​​spiritual power. There is a kind of cold feeling. And it emits a dim gray. The green ghost fire complements the second development direction of the necromancer - ghost fire."

"Isn't this the territory of the Dead Seat and the Sleeping City? How is it possible? Go back and pay attention to whether there is anything about combating cults in the newspaper. You can find out."

"You are really a genius." Il praised generously.

"Hahaha, this is based on the experience gained from more accumulation and observation in daily life." Alok boasted shamelessly.

But in fact, this is the result of reverse reasoning based on his astral vision.

Il rolled his eyes, nodded, and said:

"But the only problem is that it is useless for us to know whose territory it is. What we need now is to sell the goods in our hands."

"Uh~~~" Alok was immediately embarrassed.

Indeed, this is the current task.

He shrugged helplessly and said, "I will find a way. Although the government control is so strict now, the market for supernatural materials will never be blocked. There are definitely ways. Don't worry."

His mentality is quite relaxed. He doesn't care about the problem of not being able to sell the goods.

As long as he has the goods in his hands, he can't smash them when the demand is strong.

The two quickly walked out of this dead black market and prepared to go back to Dark Night Rose for a cup of afternoon tea.

But when they climbed over the stone door, there was an unexpected "surprise".

Two policemen from the Supernatural Incident Handling Department in black uniforms stood at the end of the passage.

Alok casually closed the stone door behind him. Seeing the two black-skinned people at the end of the passage, he said without panic but a little surprised:

"Oh~Really amazing efficiency. You two? Which jurisdiction?"
