Chapter 427 Scrolls and Boxes

Scanning his eyes across the market, Leo could easily identify among the crowd which ones were ordinary people who came here out of curiosity, which ones were newcomers with extraordinary powers and knew nothing about the cruelty of the future, and which ones were

Who are the veterans who truly understand the cruelty of the underground world?

Those ordinary people gather in groups of three or five, exclaiming in surprise at every item they see on the street stalls, and then bargaining with the stall owner regardless of whether the item is dangerous or not. There is no doubt that these people

It should be the money bags deliberately attracted by the black market. These people have both money and strong curiosity. Most things that are not dangerous or of any value to extraordinary people will be sold to these people to maintain the daily operation of the black market.

Others who had just gained power and were invited by the invited tribesmen or other extraordinary beings put on hooded clothes, or put on masks directly, or used cloaks to cover their whole bodies to hide certain changes in their bodies.

, but they stayed at almost every stall for a long time, pretending to ask about everything they were interested in. Although they had tried their best to disguise themselves and make themselves look like veterans, in the eyes of discerning people, they

The identities of newcomers are extremely eye-catching, so many people who set up stalls here will treat them as fat sheep to be slaughtered.

As for those old people who already know the underground world very well, most of them will not use clothing or other things to cover their bodies and faces, because they know very well that some people have the ability to ignore these obstructions, and most of them will use various methods to cover their bodies and faces.

Disguise uses strange objects or special abilities to change the appearance and hide oneself, just like how Leo controls the muscles on his face and changes his appearance.

It is obviously not the first time for these veterans to come to the black market. They know very well that the stalls in the square may contain good products, but most of them are useless garbage and counterfeit handicrafts, so most of them walk in the market.

After walking around for a while and finding nothing, I entered the shops carved out of the surrounding walls with a very clear purpose. It was obvious that I had already thought about what I wanted to buy before I came here, and I also knew very well what the surrounding shops were selling.

Unlike the shops outside, the outside of the black market shops are all blocked by special steel plates. There are no signs hanging at the door to say what they are selling. Only when you enter can you know what the products are. Just want to go inside.

It is not an easy task, at least it is much more difficult than the black market in Miria City.

It is obvious that the black market in Port Set has an official wizard. I saw this wizard using wizard runes composed of the basic characters of Gamorei at the entrance of all shops, and arranged a Turing character that belongs to the wizards of the Velen world.

Root. Although this Turing root is very simple and well-arranged, it is very useful and can identify those who have extraordinary powers and those who are just ordinary people.

As long as ordinary people come close to this Turing root, their minds will be immediately affected by the power of the root, they will lose their perception of the outside world, and they will also lose their direction. In this state, they will turn away from the entrance of the store uncontrollably.

Originally, this arrangement was to prevent ordinary people from entering the surrounding stores, because the things sold in those stores were not suitable for ordinary people to touch, but the effect of these Turing roots attracted the attention of many ordinary people.

Compared with unknown items that look weird but have no power, this mysterious power that can be felt personally attracts these ordinary people more.

Therefore, at the entrance of almost every wall shop, you can see some ordinary people full of curiosity. They keep trying to get closer to the shop entrance one by one, and then are affected by the power and stay away from the entrance. It seems that when they come into contact with these powers too much, they will

As if they have this kind of power, every attempt will arouse their curiosity even more.

For the controllers of the black market, the descendants of these powerful and wealthy businessmen in Port Set are all moving money bags. Attracting these people to the black market and arousing their curiosity is in the interests of the black market. After all, they only rely on Xiang Chaofan.

The profits gained from the sale of various rare and psychic items cannot support such a large organization as the black market. The only profit of the black market is to sell contraband that cannot be found on the market to the city's powerful people through the descendants of those powerful people.

Big head.

Although there are many people in this market, because the market is very large and more than a hundred people are spread out, it seems a bit empty and deserted.

After Leo came to the market, he was not in a hurry to go to the surrounding shops to see what good things were on sale in those shops. Like other ordinary people who had just entered the market, he walked around the stalls in the square.

Through the spiritual network, Leo knew that most of the people setting up stalls here were ordinary people, and most of the stalls were handicrafts imitating wizard's rare items and some antiques with obvious religious characteristics, but this was not the case.

It means there is no good stuff here.

Leo stopped in front of a stall near the innermost side of the underground square. He squatted down and searched among a pile of messy burial objects. He picked out a beautifully carved stone box. After opening the box, he could see

An antique chivalric chess set.

Knight war chess first appeared in the French Empire, but it was the Kingdom of England that really flourished. Even the modern rules of knight war chess were formulated by the war chess association of the kingdom of England. Because of this, knight war chess is very popular in the kingdom of England.

It is popular that many nobles who are keen on war chess like to regard a pair of exquisite war chess as their own burial objects. The knight's war chess now in Leo's hands is the burial object of a certain noble.

However, this set of chess pieces is different from the popular game chess pieces in Velen now. This set of chess pieces is a set of combat chess pieces.

The flags in ordinary games are thirty fixed flags, including commanders, staff, knights, and attendants. The number of each type of chess pieces is fixed. But combat chess is different. There are a total of seventy-eight types of combat chess with different functions.

These chess pieces even include non-combat units such as catapults and porters. Anyone can select thirty chess pieces from these seventy-eight kinds of chess pieces with different functions to form their own exclusive knights and carry out battles.

fighting.

In addition, the most special rule of combat chess is that the types of chess pieces can be superimposed, that is, if the person is willing, he can even form a knighthood composed entirely of commanders.

There are too many types of battle chess pieces, the rules are complicated, and the gameplay is too confusing. Therefore, the Battle Chess Association of the Kingdom of England wants to change the rules of knight battle chess, simplify the rules and gameplay, and greatly reduce the number and types of knight battle chess.

The cuts eventually led to the formation of this more popular version of knight war chess. However, except for those who are truly obsessed with knight war chess, that ancient style of knight war chess is now played by very few people.

The main reason why Leo knew this kind of knight's chess was because Rembrandt was also one of the fans of knight's chess and was the honorary chairman of the World Knight's Chess Association. When he was studying with Rembrandt, he

More than once, he was dragged into playing this extremely complicated knight chess game by the old man Rembrandt. Because he still had a second set of brain at the time, he easily defeated the old man Rembrandt again and again, almost letting Rembrandt win.

Old Man Brown completely lost his desire to play knight chess.

The battle chess set in Leo's hands is formed according to the organization of a regular knight order. Each knight is equipped with two attendant knights, exactly ten knights. However, due to some unknown reasons, the chess pieces in this set are

There are a lot fewer attendants, only seven, and all seven have cracks on their surfaces, looking like they will crack at any time.

Leo didn't pay attention to this set of combat chess because it was particularly beautifully made, but more because this incomplete set of combat chess was actually a set of wizard artifacts. Even without a spiritual network or spiritual vision, Leo could

I can clearly feel the strong spiritual energy contained in this set of combat chess.

The moment he picked up the battle chess, he became more and more certain that the battle chess was not just a wizard's artifact, but more likely a creation of the tower wizard, because through his spiritual vision, he could easily see through the hidden objects.

The Turing roots under the camouflage pattern, and the arrangement and layout of these Turing roots, reminded him of the stone ball that trapped the Eye of Truth. Many aspects of the two were connected.

"How much does this set of combat chess cost?" After Leo determined the origin of this set of combat chess, even though he didn't know how to use this set of combat chess, he still decided to buy it and looked at the Turing characters on the surface of the chess pieces.

And the secrets of the high tower wizard's circle contained in it were already worth spending a lot of money to get it.

"Fifty gold shields." The stall owner is just an ordinary tomb robber and does not know the true value of this set of combat chess. However, he has been setting up a stall in the black market for many years and has already developed a good eye for observing people's actions. Leo did not

He didn't hide his emotions, so the other party easily caught Leo's thoughts, and then offered what he thought was the highest price.

After getting the quotation, Leo took out his wallet without thinking, took out a cash check for fifty gold shields and handed it to the stall owner, then turned around and walked towards the nearest store with the battle chess in hand.

Leo's actions undoubtedly made the stall owner realize that his offer was too low. His greed drove him to stop Leo and refuse to acknowledge the transaction. However, when he saw Leo stepping out of the door of the nearby store very easily,

After passing through and entering the store, the greed in his heart was instantly extinguished, because he knew very well who he could and could not provoke in this black market.

He didn't want to be like some hot-headed unlucky people who lost their lives in vain because of provoking those mysterious people.

Leo didn't care at all about the stall owner's little thoughts. After entering the store, his attention was already attracted by the various items in the store.

This shop does not sell some wizarding artifacts, but a bookstore, a bookstore that specializes in selling ancient parchments.

In the past, when paper had not yet appeared, people in the vinylon world mainly relied on parchment rolls as the carrier of civilization. It was only because of the invention of paper that the relatively bulky and expensive parchment rolls were gradually abandoned.

It's just that ordinary people have given up on parchment scrolls. For wizards, parchment scrolls or parchment-like scrolls are still the carriers they use to record witchcraft.

Naturally, it is impossible to find ancient parchment books such as wizard's notes in this store, but other parchment scrolls are also very attractive to Leo, because in the annotations under some ancient parchment books, he saw many that have become extinct on the market.

Ancient books, these ancient books come from the record books of some ancient civilization tribes. Some may only record trivial matters of the tribe, but they may also record some useful content.

"Are there parchment scrolls from those primitive tribes in the wilderness of Moissan Continent?" Leo glanced at the annotations on all the parchment scrolls in the room. He didn't find what he wanted, so he looked directly at the bookcase standing next to it.

A man in black robe asked.

"Yes." The man in black robe answered simply.

"How many?" Leo continued to ask without paying attention to the other party's tone.

"Three volumes." The man in black robe quickly responded.

"How much."

"A roll of three thousand gold shields."

Hearing this price, Leo frowned, because this price should be the price of psychic items such as wizards' rare items, and judging from the prices of psychic items outside, these three thousand gold shields are already considered very high.

.

Seeing Leo frowning, the man in black robe added another sentence, "It's the ancient sacrificial scroll of the tribal priest."

Hearing the man in black robe's explanation, Leo's brows not only did not loosen, but frowned even more tightly, because if it was really, as the man in black robe said, a sacrificial scroll owned by the priest of the wasteland tribe, then the three

The price of a thousand gold shields is too cheap. According to the information Leo obtained from Rembrandt, the price of a sacrificial scroll in a recent auction was as high as 60,000 gold flanges, and it was still gold flanges that had not depreciated in value.

Perhaps sensing the doubts in Leo's heart, the man in black robe explained: "The ancient scroll is incomplete and has the power of a curse attached to it. Anyone who gets the ancient scroll will encounter some unavoidable disasters."

Hearing what the man in black robe said, Leo not only did not feel worried, but became more interested, so he said to the man in black robe: "Take it out! If the thing is true, I want it."

After hearing this, the man in black robe turned and walked to a bookcase, opened a drawer on the bookcase, took out an inconspicuous-looking box, and placed it in front of Leo.

Although the box looks ordinary, Leo's spiritual vision can see a large number of Turing roots on the surface of the box. These Turing roots are combined to form a forbidden magic circle, which blocks the inside of the box.

The things are sealed tightly.

Judging from the combination rules of Turing roots, Leo easily judged that this box was probably also made by the wizard in the black market, and the combinations of Turing roots on the box were more numerous and clearer, making Leo

I couldn't help but become interested, so I asked: "Including this box?"

The man in black robe didn't expect Leo to ask such a question. He was stunned for a moment, looked at the box, and finally did not change the price. He nodded and said, "Including this box."
