Chapter 56 The Witcher Market
Transport to Fiona's Courtyard through the key. The other end of the portal is a single room in a mansion.
The courtyard key can set a teleportation coordinate. This single room should belong to Nick.
Now that Mu Hua has the key, he can change the teleportation coordinates later, and he will not be teleported here again when he opens the teleportation gate in the future.
This is a mansion similar to a trade exhibition center. The mansion has only two floors, but it covers a very large area.
The second floor has many private single rooms, while on the first floor, in addition to shops and roadside vendors, there is a fountain hill with a floor height of more than ten meters, and even an indoor botanical garden with dense vegetation.
Compared with the noise on the first floor, the second floor of the mansion is very quiet. There is an empty hall at the entrance of the stairs. There are many display screens in the hall. Through these display screens, you can check the quotations of many products.
‘Purple Spirit Armor, three-piece head and hand set, one hundred and thirty demon gold coins, sixty demon gold coins per piece. ’
‘Boots of the Dharma Soul, one hundred demon gold coins. ’
‘Five-piece set of Skeleton Armor, each set contains ten demon gold coins. ’
‘Hard brand jadeite waist, fourteen mithril coins, starting from thirty pieces. ’
‘Fireball magic scroll, a set of ten, magic strength 130, three demon gold coins in each set. The magic strength is 350, and each group contains forty demon gold coins. ’
‘Thousands of thunder-killing magic scrolls, basic strength, seven hundred demon gold coins. ’
‘Giant snake heavy sword, one hundred demon gold coins. ’
‘Seventh level Lamia magic core, five hundred demon gold coins. ’
‘Lava slime inheritance crystallization, seven thousand demon gold coins. ’
Mu Hua came to a display screen to check the product catalog, glanced at it briefly, then turned and went downstairs.
This ghost place is not an ordinary exchange. Even relatively cheap items are purchased wholesale. The quotations for the strings of demon gold coins made Mu Hua's eyes go straight.
Going down to the first floor, this should be regarded as a retail market, and the people here are dressed in all kinds of strange ways.
Leather armor and cloaks seem to be the daily clothing here, robes with inscribed patterns, wizard hats with large brims and pointed peaks, and from time to time you can see warriors equipped with heavy metal armor and walking with clanging giant swords.
Unlike the outside world, this place is a world of adventurers.
"The Fang Ghost Mask, the new Fang Ghost Mask! Sir, do you need a shield? A large lightweight shield, strength 400, erosion resistance 20%, strength enhancement 20 points."
< br>The shops on the first floor rarely send people out to solicit business, but in front of the stall planned on the aisle, a vendor greeted Mu Hua who was passing by.
“No need.” Mu Hua waved his hand, seeing that the other party would continue to sell.
"I am a necromancer." When Mu Hua said, he looked at another stall, where there was a bone beast in a cage.
The vendor selling shields stopped, and next to the bone beast stall, a figure covered in black robes turned to look at Mu Hua.
‘Necromancers never wear shields’
Although there is a lot of ridicule in it, it seems to be a stereotyped reserve of the necromancer group.
In fact, the magic in this world is generally divided into three categories: white magic, elemental magic, and black magic.
Among them, blessings, buffs, and some magics such as flying and mage's hands that rely on pure magic to cast spells are usually classified into the category of white magic.
There is no need to say much about elemental magic. It is basically related to elements. It is simple and crude, and is famous for its direct lethality.
As for black magic, it is usually called soul magic in order to avoid arousing the ill will of ordinary people. Curses, poisons, soul damage, life control, etc. all fall into the category of black magic.
Necromancers are typical users of black magic. In addition to being equipped with staffs, they usually also hold some cursed props or enchanted props.
Wands, cursed props, as well as the signature defensive magic such as the Undead Bone Shield, Sighing Bone Wall, and Magic Shield, "The Necromancer Never Wears a Shield" has become a certain trend among black magic casters. A strange kind of reserve.
Looking for a necromancer to sell a shield? Haha, if it's not a light shield above the city defense level, you'd better save your breath.
"How do you sell bone pigs?" Compared to the black-robed vendors across the street who smelled pungent incense, Mu Hua's shirt and trousers looked extremely refreshing. Coming closer, Mu Hua saw from under the opponent's hood a stiff, aging face with corpse spots.
The vendor looked at Mu Hua with a pair of cloudy eyes, with complex emotions of respect, disgust, envy, and jealousy in his expression.
This is a necromancer, and Mu Hua's clothing and mental state all indicate that he is the result of the necromancers' dedicated pursuit, a true necromancer.
“700 demon gold coins.” The merchant said to Mu Hua in a hoarse voice.
"Why don't you go and grab it?" Mu Hua questioned. The other party twitched his eyes, but in a blink of an eye he turned his head to the side as if he disliked Mu Hua for not knowing the goods.
The bone beast, an artificial undead skeleton, is an adult liger-like bone beast with saber teeth, sharp claws, and a bone tail with a hook.
There is also a pair of bone wings on their backs. Although they can only glide at low altitude, the bone wings can be retracted and have four hooks on them. This pair of bone wings is also a means of attack for them.
"Cheap dead bones are not much stronger than skeleton warriors."
"The soul is only as strong as an evil spirit. How dare you ask for 700 demon gold coins?"
>
Mu Hua looked carefully at the soul fire in Guxi's skull, and when he looked at the vendor, he seemed to be looking at a liar.
This stall sells some one-handed swords. In addition to bone beasts, there are also several skeletons made by necromancers.
Those skeletons Mu Hua had no interest at all, and they couldn't even imitate the skeleton warriors. That is to say, the skeletons were relatively standard and were equipped with murderous weapons, so Mu Hua stopped to ask.
"What I sell is craftsmanship. Do you know how many psychic potions I have consumed for it? I don't want you to do it yourself."
"Oh, that's right, young people should If you don't have time to learn how to construct undead, I suggest you buy some books on constructing and transforming, which may save you a lot of money." Faced with Mu Hua's accusation, the necromancer was mean and disdainful.
"Huh, craftsmanship? You really dare to say that. Okay, how much does this wave blade knife cost?" Mu Hua was stunned by the necromancer's attitude, and in a flash, Mu Hua no longer paid attention to the bone beast, but picked up the stall asked a black wave-edged sword.
A skeleton of very average quality, sold for 700 demon gold coins, is definitely a sky-high price for fraud, but this necromancer obviously does not intend that any necromancer will buy it.
This bone beast actually uses a special spell to make a ghost possess a skeleton. It is essentially the same thing as the skeleton made by the necromancer.
The strength of the bones determines the combat power of this method of transforming the undead. The biggest advantage is that it will not be controlled by the detention magic of other people's undead.
Ordinary people cannot see the ghost, but after fusing it with the bones, people can also control such bones through the spiritual imprint when refining the ghost.
Because of the existence of unstable factors such as the detention of the undead, many necromancers usually carry this kind of constructed undead unless they are the undead relatives.
Obviously, this necromancer wants to find a buyer who takes advantage of the skull, but this buyer will definitely not be a necromancer.
Of course, this thing may also be the coffin of the necromancer, so he doesn't really care whether it can be sold.
“A wave-edged sword made of corpse-covered black iron, with an armor penetration of 50, and the ability to absorb death energy. Two demon gold coins.” Looking at the wave-edged sword that Mu Hua picked up, the necromancer said Mu Hua said.
"It's not good for chopping, the 50 armor can't even cut through low-level leather armor. Two mithril coins." Mu Hua bargained for a 10% discount.
"Tsk, young man, the Wave Blade Sword is for stabbing." The Necromancer was disgusted.
The next moment, the Necromancer's pupils shrank, and he saw the wave-edged sword floating in the air. But it was Mu Hua who asked Tuesday to try out the wave-edged sword.
"Absorbing death energy is harmful to normal people, and the death energy it condenses is dispensable to us. Three mithril coins, no more."
Death Breath is just a normal energy for people with spiritual vision, but without the ability of spiritual vision, death energy is a kind of 'nuclear waste' that pollutes flesh and blood.
Mu Hua was choosing a weapon for Tuesday. This weapon made of corpse-covered black iron could be integrated into Tuesday's body, making it easy to carry.
"Do you have soul dust? Two soul dusts." After confirming that Mu Hua was followed by a guardian spirit who was at least a dead soul, the necromancer's attitude changed.
"Five Mithril coins, I don't need this knife urgently. You should know that soul dust is more useful to us than money." Mu Hua took out five Mithril coins and weighed them in his hand. The attitude of leaving if it doesn’t work.
"Give me the money and leave quickly. Don't delay my business." Seeing that there was no benefit to be gained from Mu Hua, the necromancer nodded in disgust.
