Bai Jing, who was writing a report, didn't even look up at Xu Le.
"Did Gan ask you to ask? I guess you are so excited right now, thinking about how to eat the fruit, that you don't have the mind to say such a thing."
"Um, yes, Teacher Gan asked me to ask."
Xu Le nodded in acknowledgement honestly.
Bai Jing finished writing the report in her hand and handed it to Xu Le.
"Let's take a look."
The content of the report is about this pioneer mission. Now Team 6 faces two choices.
The first is to completely abandon the Area 53 mission and hand it over to the higher-ups or other teams for processing.
The second is to apply for support, because the mission of Block 53-Baixia Town is no longer something their team can handle.
There are a lot of things written under this line, especially two of them, which are marked in red pen.
The mayor who did not show up was definitely not someone that the ordinary Night Watch team could deal with.
There are a large number of level 2 ghost species in the town, and long-range items are needed to stably restrain the ghost species.
From the content of this report, Xu Le already knew what Bai Jing was thinking.
She wanted very badly to continue the mission.
But she didn't say it directly, instead she asked for his opinion, isn't this letting him take the blame...
But to be honest, this option is a bit risky.
He had already seen the power of Gu Yinduo awakening the Polluter.
A level 3 ancient sound was awakened and suppressed a group of people. They used all means to barely defeat the opponent.
Such a monster can scare another person to death, so the mayor should be at least level 4.
"Captain, do you want to continue the mission?"
Bai Jing, who was always calm, felt heavy and worried at this moment.
"Our team has failed too many missions."
Xu Le then remembered what other teams had said about Team 6. Team 6 had failed in too many missions this year.
If it continues to fail, it is likely to be broken up or reorganized by an airborne leader.
No matter which situation it is, it is not what the captain wants to see.
For many people from Team 6, once they join other teams, it is really hard to predict what the outcome will be.
Especially someone like Gu Beichen.
The Night Watchmen have so many missions to go out on, so dealing with a troublemaker is extremely easy.
"Captain, we have no information about the mayor's strength. Isn't the risk too high?"
“Yes, the risk is high, so we need to get some soul-soothing equipment, especially long-range ones.
If there is any progress in equipment and props, I will request support from another team and combine to complete the pioneering mission.
If there is no progress during this period, then give up.”
"I understand." Xu Le nodded.
"Okay, we still have 10 days, I will let everyone think of a solution for this matter.
Later, you, Gu Beichen, and Wang Shu will go to the black market in Area C to sell the moonstones you have accumulated this time.
Take a walk and have a look, long-distance and group travel is best, be thoughtful and don’t be afraid to spend money.”
Xu Le was stunned, knowing that this was probably the extra task that Gan mentioned.
Do you want to buy equipment and props for calming souls and spirits? Long-range and group equipment are best. This requirement...
"I understand Captain, but why do we have to sell Moonstone on the black market? Doesn't the official Night's Watch also take it?"
"Nonsense, of course the price on the black market is higher, and there are usually some good things on the black market. You can do this yourself, it depends on your opinion."
"Then... what if someone robs you?"
Xu Le seemed to have too many questions.
Bai Jing picked up the cup on the table and smashed it on Xu Le's head.
"You are a night watchman, and you are afraid that others will rob you. Can you be more capable?"
Xu Le quickly took the fruit, covered his head and ran out of the office.
"The Night Watch is so great? Really."
…
When Xu Le found Gu Beichen, Gu Beichen was taking a shower and changing clothes. As for Wang Shu... he was watching outside.
Xu Le was a little confused. Is the relationship between these two people really pure
But none of this matters. What shocked Xu Le even more was that Gu Beichen actually lit three incense sticks for the fruit and even bowed to it.
"Is there any need to make such a fuss about eating a fruit?" Xu Le questioned.
"What do you know?"
Gu Beichen saw the half of the Elemental Electric Fruit in Xu Le's hand, and his expression froze slightly:
"Have you eaten yet?"
"Well, this stuff tastes like shit with mustard on it, and the flavor is just amazing."
Xu Le said as he took another bite.
In fact, the fluctuations in his body were not as calm as he appeared.
The surging ancient sound energy roamed in his spiritual world, and these ancient sound energies surrounded the Soul Tree.
Although the two have the same origin, they have not merged with each other.
While eating the fruit, Xu Le tried to control this unstable energy.
I hope it can be used honestly.
Gu Beichen on the opposite side curled his lips and stared at his fruit:
"You talk as if you've eaten shit, but the description you used is similar to what other people who have eaten the fruit say."
After saying that, he also took a deep breath and took a bite of the fruit.
His brows were furrowed and his fists were clenched tightly.
He was somewhat shocked by how unpalatable it was.
However, the power within it also made his heart surge.
"Is this the power of Gu Yinduo, a power said to be more powerful than the Red Moon..."
Frost gathered at Gu Beichen's fingertips, a power completely different from the Red Moon Flame.
The ice flowers gradually solidified. As the owner of the fruit, he also felt the fluctuations on Xu Le's body opposite him.
electricity!
The electric current also gathered at Xu Le's fingertips. Although he and Gu Beichen did not speak, they both felt the fighting spirit from each other.
The two of them pointed at the same time, and ice and electricity flew past.
Gu Beichen's legs and feet felt numb and he held onto the wall.
Xu Le also felt a stomachache and sat on the ground.
This power... is so small!
"Humph, I didn't use my full strength."
"Tsk, me too."
Xu Le patted his butt and stood up, while Gu Beichen shook his hands and said nothing, pretending to be deep.
"Stop fighting."
Wang Shu spoke out to stop him at this time, but what he said... always reminded Xu Le of a scene of rain.
Xu Le shook his clothes:
"The captain asked us to take the moonstone and process it at the black market in Area C."
"What about the fruit's ability? I'm not familiar with it yet."
"You've already eaten, and you can't run. Just go home and practice on your own tonight."
"OK."
"That's fine with me."
Gu Beichen took out a pair of sunglasses from the cabinet and put them on, and handed a pair to Wang Shu. Xu Le felt something was wrong, but didn't say anything.
Only after following Gu Beichen to the Night Watchman’s parking lot did Xu Le realize what was wrong.
This guy actually has a steam locomotive.
However, Xu Le still had some resistance to the idea of someone else riding a bike with him, especially when there were three men in one bike.
"Can't we take a tricycle?" Xu Le asked.
"Things like tricycles are not worthy of my status at all." Gu Beichen's boasting syndrome came back again.
"But last time when I took Li Shunliu out for dinner, I saw you were quite happy squeezing in."
"He likes Li Shunliu." Wang Shu added.
Gu Beichen remained calm after being exposed:
"You are not a slut, so stop saying such meaningless things. If you are a man, get in the car. But if you don't dare to get in the car, you can just say it. I can understand your timidity."
"Star, you star! Just go ahead."
Xu Le got on the motorcycle, Gu Beichen rode the bicycle, and Wang Shu was in the middle.
Because he didn't want to hug Wang Shu, he could only hold his body high and support himself from behind.
But this makes the posture of the three people rather awkward.
"Hold on tight, let's go!"
The steam locomotive is very fast and should be the fastest means of transportation Xu Le has ever taken.
In less than 40 minutes, they arrived at Area C.
This place seems to be more lively than Area B, and street vendors shouting their wares can be seen everywhere.
The people walking around all had smiles on their faces.
Judging from their performance, the living standard in Area C should be pretty good.
However, because there are too many vendors, there are many guards on duty here, mainly to maintain traffic order.
Didi!
Seeing the speeding motorcycle, a guard stopped the three people's car.
Because the three of them were going to the black market, they were all in plain clothes and the guards didn't notice.
"There are so many people here. If you ride like this, you will exceed the speed limit and you will be fined."
Xu Le glanced at Gu Beichen. The perpetrator had already lowered his head. It was so embarrassing that three night watchmen from Area B were caught by guards in other areas!
In order to avoid being fined, Xu Le could only quickly search the original owner's memory.
After roughly understanding the way District C speaks, I tried to get closer to him:
"We are all from District C. Big brother, please give me some face. I forgot to bring my notebook. I need some help from my family."
To be honest, Xu Le pretended to be very convincing, but the guard didn't buy it at all:
"Don't bother me, you're not from Zone C."
"How do you know I'm not from Zone C?" Xu Le was still being stubborn.
"You have to admit it. Wait for me to stop someone from Area C and show you."
At this time, another motorcycle came speeding over. The guard waved to stop the motorcycle, but the motorcycle showed no intention of stopping.
A voice came from far away in the wind:
"You bastard! Come here and catch me!"
Xu Le and the other two looked at the car in shock. The people in Area C are really simple and honest!
The guard pointed at the speeding locomotive in the distance and said:
"See? That's Zone C. You three are so cowardly, you're Zone B at first glance."
Xu Le and Gu Beichen spread their hands helplessly, while Wang Shu took out his night watchman ID:
"Sorry, we are the night watchmen of Area B. We are here to investigate a case. Please let us pass."
"Oh, sorry, sorry, it turns out to be the Lord of the Night's Watch. Then please go ahead, the two of you."
Although the guard let him go, Xu Le always felt that he was laughing.
"Thank you very much."
The motorcycle started again, and the guard looked at the backs of the two men and touched his chin.
"This direction, I'm afraid you want to experience the nightlife in our C District!"
…
Gu Beichen drove Xu Le to the black market in Area C, which is the largest underground trading place in the entire Lighthouse.
It is called a black market, but its appearance is disguised as a flower and bird market.
You can even see some places selling pets outside.
When passing by a pet shop, Xu Le even took the time to pet a few cats.
"Let's go, we need to get the things out quickly."
"If you're so nervous, people will see through you."
"To be honest, it is true." Wang Shu added another blow.
After hearing Xu Le say this, Gu Beichen realized that he was too nervous. The way he hugged Yue Shi tightly looked a bit silly.
"I don't think we should be hanging around here."
But Xu Le asked:
"Okay, you want to sell the moonstone, right?"
"Yes."
"Do you know where to sell it? Do you know how much to sell it for? Do you know where to sell it without exposing your identity?"
Facing Xu Le's three consecutive questions, Gu Beichen lowered his head.
"Uh, I don't know."
Xu Le was a little curious. Gu Beichen's family was so rich, so why did he act like a fool
In Lighthouse, shouldn’t wealthy families receive a good education
But he is already a level 2 disaster warlock at such a young age, so it can't be said that he has a poor education.
"You don't know this, you don't know that, yet you are so rich. How come you have a mine at home?"
"You know all this? I haven't told anyone else, Xiaoshu, don't tell anyone."
Gu Beichen looked at Xu Le in shock, and did not forget to remind Wang Shu.
Xu Le: …
Touching his nose in silence, Xu Le wondered why he could portray Fan so naturally
“Okay, we need to understand the situation in the black market first.
The captain asked us to come here for other tasks besides selling moonstones."
"What mission?"
Xu Le did not answer directly, but turned around and looked at the two of them:
"If Team 6 disbands one day, what will you do?"
"Disband? How could Team 6 be disbanded?"
"We have failed three missions this year. Is it because of this?" Wang Shu was very sober.
Hearing Wang Shu ask this, Gu Beichen's expression changed.
There were indeed three missions that failed this year, and one of them was due to him, and another one was also related to him.
It can even be said that this Block 53 mission is somewhat related to him.
"Could it be... I am really the legendary disaster star?"
Xu Le waved his hand:
"You? A disaster star? Not really. You are at most the shit at the door of the toilet. You are just a little creepy."
"roll."
The three of them walked side by side in this black market that was like a flower and bird market. Xu Le saw many moonstones being sold at stalls.
He picked up a piece at random and asked the stall owner:
“How much is this?”
"The official price of a fine moonstone is 100 per gram. This one weighs 6 grams. If you really want it, just give me 580."
Moonstone, 4.67 g
The so-called fine product still contains a lot of red impurities.
It is impossible to achieve a price of 100 yuan per gram.
Xu Le didn't know whether these impurities were man-made or natural, so he could only shake his head and continue walking.
"Hey, if you really want it, I can give you a discount, 570, 550?"
Gu Beichen pulled Xu Le:
"That guy's price is much cheaper, 6 grams for only 550, I'm tempted."
"Are you sure it's 6 grams?"
"ah?"
Looking at Gu Beichen's surprised expression, Xu Le shook his head. This guy was really naive.
"It should be a lot less, or there are impurities."
Wang Shu added, and Gu Beichen suddenly realized and said indignantly:
“He is deceiving consumers.”
"Are you going to sue him?"
Gu Beichen remained silent.
In this way, the three of them asked the price as they walked.
The price on the black market is said to be 100 yuan per gram, but in fact there will be some impurities and defects.
The big stores are okay, but the stalls are much more outrageous.
At this time, I had reached the end of the street, and there was a pet shop that looked like a flower and bird market.
Xu Le knew that if he walked any further, he would be out. Gu Beichen couldn't help but ask:
"Is this the end?"
Xu Le didn't say anything. He felt that this black market shouldn't be so simple.
"That shouldn't be the case. A place like this should have a more central area."
"More central areas?"
"Forget it, let's just ask someone."
"How do you ask?"
"Just do this, this, and say it this way, and it will be fine." Xu Le explained briefly in Gu Beichen's ear.
"Why am I the one who said this, and not you and Xiaoshu?"
Gu Beichen was a little confused.
"I'm shy." Wang Shu's eyes wandered.
Xu Le explained seriously:
"Because you are more elegant. If Wang Shu and I were to say this, we wouldn't be able to show your unique superior aura and achieve the desired effect."
Gu Beichen thought for a while and nodded seriously:
"That makes sense. You two are not as good as me in temperament."
Afterwards, Gu Beichen pushed Xu Le directly and said loudly with disdain on his face:
"Don't be silly, Xu Le. There is no real black market in a place like Area C. Look at what these people are selling. What are they
It’s OK to fool newbies, but if you really want to buy or sell something, you have to go to the Lighthouse Trade Fair.”
The slightly open mouth, the half-extended chin, the disdainful eyes, and that annoying tone of voice.
All it takes is a "eat shit" sentence.
Well, some black market stall owners are starting to get angry.
"Boss B, what are you talking about? We don't have any in C District? Are you an idiot?"
"That's right, silly Mr. District, go to the entrance of Alley 13 and see what a big shipment is."
"What bad luck! You may have never seen anything like this in a dark alley in your life."
"Don't be angry, he's just a harpy, an ignorant thing."
Several people cursed at Gu Beichen, making his face turn blue and red.
But Xu Le spread his hands to him:
"You see, when you want to get an answer to a question, you only need to put forward a wrong point of view to get a correct answer."
Gu Beichen stared at Xu Le.
"You tricked me."
“This is called seeking the right direction, how can it be called a pit
Let’s go to Alley 13.
That so-called... dark alley?"
