Arriving at the entrance of Alley 13, Xu Le looked at the locked iron gate and knocked on it a few times.
Soon someone opened a window and an eye could be seen.
"Who is it?"
"We want to go to Black Alley."
"No one introduced you?"
"No."
Xu Le answered truthfully. He wanted to explain further, but the other party didn't even want to talk and just closed the window.
"This guy is so rude." Gu Beichen was a little angry.
However, Xu Le just pondered calmly. He picked up a stone on the ground and weighed it a few times.
After a burst of strong green light, the stone in his hand turned into a small piece of gold.
"Alchemy? Xu Le, you actually know alchemy? Holy shit!"
Not only Gu Beichen, but even Wang Shu standing beside him showed some surprise and shock.
Stone turning into gold, is that a scare
"It's not alchemy, don't think too much about it. Come on, Gu Beichen, help me cut it."
"what are you up to?"
"Money paves the way. Now that we've come this far, we can't leave empty-handed."
Gu Beichen had no choice but to melt the gold according to Xu Le's request.
After he melted and cut 100 grams of gold, it turned into 5 small gold bars of 20 grams.
Xu Le is usually very stingy, but he knows that now is not the time to be stingy.
He knocked on the door again.
After the window opened, Xu Le immediately handed over a small gold bar.
"Is this enough as an introduction fee?"
The man inside weighed the gold bar and was silent for a while:
"That's enough. Come in."
The 180 yuan ticket was almost half a month’s salary for Xu Le.
"I hope this place won't let me down, and won't let the captain down."
After the other party opened the door, there was a passage leading directly to the underground.
After Xu Le nodded to the gatekeeper, he went downstairs with Gu Beichen and Wang Shu.
The corridor is very long, but the lighting is still bright.
After the three of them bent several times, soft music began to appear in the aisle.
"It should be here soon."
As soon as Xu Le opened his mouth, the three of them became nervous. What kind of place is the legendary black alley
A bloody place full of fights and dirty deals
Or is it a place of fireworks full of desire and chaos
Or maybe both
Soon, an area with soft lighting appeared in front of the three people.
Hollow ceiling, a large number of colorful ceilings and spotlights.
The soft and soothing music makes this place seem a little out of place compared to most places in downtown.
The style is very high, at least it is in line with Gu Beichen's taste.
"Well, this place is nice and suits my status."
This is actually a world built under the lighthouse! A world that looks very glamorous and extravagant.
"Welcome to the Black Alley, three handsome guys."
A maid dressed in a bunny girl costume greeted the three people. In addition to the standard flaming red lips and curvy figure, her figure also looked very pretty.
The almost exposed collar and the big V-shape of the clothes were a bit overwhelming for the young Gu Beichen.
He looked at the bunny girl in front of him with his eyes almost popping out.
Wang Shu, who was standing by, quickly pulled him:
"Beichen, the captain once said that women in places like this should not be touched! Don't you want to go along with it?"
"I just... take a look, why is it not working?"
"The captain said that the women here don't use anesthesia when they rub your kidneys."
"Huh~?" Gu Beichen was startled and subconsciously covered his waist.
Xu Le didn't care about this kind of outfit. His evaluation... was that it was not as good-looking as Tifa's.
"Do you three handsome guys need a guide? It's only 50 bucks."
Wow, that’s 6 days’ salary!
Xu Le shook his head:
"No need, we can just take a look ourselves."
Hearing Xu Le and the others' refusal, the bunny girl was not angry, but smiled and nodded:
"Okay, you can call me anytime if you need me."
Xu Le shifted his gaze towards the sign guide. Even the sign at the door was made of jade. The mural in the entrance hall was a picture of the Illuminati, showing luxury.
In addition to the common shipping area, boutique area, auction area, and purchasing area in the black market.
There is also a restaurant, a rest area and an entertainment area. I don’t know if the entertainment area here is decent or not. Xu Le always wanted to wash his feet in his previous life.
"The captain said we can get something for free... Is this okay here?"
Xu Le's question made Gu Beichen and Wang Shu hesitate for a while:
"I think it's probably not possible."
"Yeah, I think so."
"Then where can we get free sex?"
"You can take a free shower in the Sunshine Bathhouse next to the branch." Wang Shu said silently.
I don’t know why, but he always feels ashamed after saying it.
Xu Le and Gu Beichen nodded in sudden realization:
“So you’ve actually been there.”
"Just twice." Wang Shu lowered his head even more.
Xu Le took a while to look away:
"Okay, Brother Shu is indeed not an ordinary person. Let's go to the shipping area."
Although he wanted to get to know Black Alley better, Xu Le still felt that it was more important to finish his captain's job first.
Besides, he had little money in his pocket, so he had no confidence in what he said or did.
"good."
Gu Beichen and Wang Shu naturally had no objection to getting down to business.
Passing through several areas, Xu Le and the other two could occasionally see some people wearing masks.
Judging from their clothes, watches, and the occasional accessories they wear, these people are either of high status or very wealthy. They should be from the upper city.
“Will people from Uptown come here too?”
"It's normal. After all, when people have money, they will want to have fun. Besides, as a black market, there should be some things here that are hard to buy in other places."
“I see.”
Xu Le's analysis was very logical, but in fact he himself knew nothing about this.
He can only rely on his experience and his always-on ethereal state to make himself look like a knowledgeable guy, but in fact he is also working hard.
When he arrived at the shipping area, Gu Beichen found that there was almost no difference between this place and the Lighthouse Exchange in the upper city.
It is a very formal trading and shipping place.
“This place is very similar to the Beacon Exchange.”
"Maybe it was opened by one person." Xu Le said casually.
"How is that possible?"
"Why not?"
Without waiting for Gu Beichen's answer, Xu Le went straight to a black market trader.
The trader was wearing a revealing tight outfit that was somewhat similar to a cheongsam.
However, a normal cheongsam would not have such a large heart-shaped hole on the chest, and the slit skirt is like an abyss.
"I want to sell some moonstones." Xu Le went straight to the point.
The trader took a look at the mental energy device at hand. Xu Le's mental energy was so stable that it was scary.
A man who showed no reaction to seeing her? Or three men at once
Could it be a...
It's not easy to fool people like this.
"Then may I ask how many moonstones does this gentleman need to sell?"
"150 grams." 141 grams of it belonged to the team and 9 grams was his own.
The trader raised his eyebrows. Even if there were large transactions in the black market, Xu Le and the other two looked like individual traders or a small group.
It is still quite surprising that a small group could produce 150 grams of moonstone at one time.
"Our purchase price is 10 yuan per gram higher than the official purchase price, which is 95 yuan, so the price given here is 105 yuan.
Sir, do you think this price is satisfactory?"
Hearing the price, Xu Le was already very satisfied.
"Can."
"We need to test the quality of the moonstone."
"Can."
The trader invited an old man, who took a magnifying glass and carefully observed the moonstone on the table. He weighed the moonstone and finally nodded to the trader.
"Standard, 150 grams."
When the trader heard the sufficient quantity standard, his expression immediately looked much better.
"My name is Li Tianli, you can also call me Li'er, this is my business card..."
Xu Le didn't let her finish her words and asked directly:
"No, when can I get the money?"
Faced with such a straightforward refusal, Li Tianli's expression changed slightly, but she still said politely:
"Right away."
Soon, Xu Le and his team got 15,750 yuan belonging to their entire team.
Gu Beichen was somewhat excited, and there was also some joy in Wang Shu's eyes.
"Hey, Xu Le, why didn't you pay attention to that woman who was chatting with you?"
"Didn't Brother Shu say that women here don't use anesthesia when having their kidneys cut?"
“Is that the reason?”
"Yes, that's why."
Xu Le smiled, their main mission here had been completed.
Next, it was Bai Jing’s personal instructions to him.
Or it could be said to be an exhortation to all team members.
This entrustment may affect the outcome of their mission.
To put it more seriously, the result of this mission will even determine whether the Night Watch Team 6 in Area B will continue to exist.
Xu Le glanced at Gu Beichen and Wang Shu.
"Is there anything that can restrain high-level souls? A group or long-range one would be best."
From the carefree looks on these two guys' faces, it's clear that we can't rely on them for this matter.
"Forget it, let's go to the boutique area now."
"Boutique area? Can you afford the things there? The money for the moonstone belongs to the team."
Xu Le turned around and stared at Gu Beichen:
"It's the captain's request."
"All right."
When the three of them arrived at the boutique area, Xu Le realized how expensive the things here were.
Zion's high-quality steam sniper rifle costs 7,000 yuan.
This is an ordinary item, not a relic of Gu Yinduo.
Relics are even more outrageous. Xu Le saw a relic necklace called the White Blue Bird.
The effect is psychic energy restoration once a day, and also a meditative and tranquil effect.
Such a relic is priced at 10,000.
Xu Le thought, if he released his Sunny Day Doll, it would be worth 50,000 to 100,000 yuan, right
Xu Le took a look around and although there were a lot of good stuff, it was obvious that these things did not meet Xu Le's requirements and the prices were too expensive.
So he walked directly to a lady at the counter:
"Hello, I would like to ask, do you have any sealed relics for sale?"
"A sealed relic? Is this gentleman going to collect it?"
"No, I bought it for use."
"Buy it to use? I'd like to ask, sir, are you trying your luck and unlocking the relic yourself?"
The counter lady's eyes were full of smiles, but Xu Le had no idea how much sincerity was in those smiles.
In short, Xu Le did not feel any sense of ridicule.
The service staff here are of really good quality.
Although the dusty sealed relics are said to have high development value, there are almost no people who are truly capable of unsealing the relics.
Many of the wishes for sealing the relics are too far-fetched.
If you want to unlock a sealed relic, you usually have to look up the life story of the relic's owner and try it bit by bit.
Or just rely on luck and guess.
This also leads to a huge discount on the Sealed Relics. Unless they are for collection, few people will buy Sealed Relics.
"Is there?" Xu Le asked again.
"Of course, please follow me."
Seeing that Xu Le seemed to really want to buy something, the salesgirl was very polite and took them in another direction.
Following the saleslady, Xu Le came to a place similar to a warehouse.
Although it is a warehouse, it is also a boutique warehouse.
There were a few people here and there, mostly uptown patrons wearing masks.
The reason they came here was probably to buy some collectible sealed objects and take them back as decorations.
Only Xu Le really wanted to buy it for use.
Seeing that Xu Le was serious, Gu Beichen panicked. He tugged at Xu Le's sleeve:
"Can you please, Xu Le, buy the sealed relics and use them as bricks? Please stop trying to be brave, okay?"
"Brother Shu, take Gu Beichen out for a walk."
Xu Le's tone clearly contained some command. Wang Shu looked at him for a few seconds and finally nodded.
"good."
"Hey, Xu Le, don't spend money recklessly! Hey, Wang Shu, don't pull me.
Xu Le, if you don't have enough money, come to me, I have money."
Xu Le smiled slightly. Although Gu Beichen looked very embarrassed when he was dragged away by Wang Shu, he was really handsome when he said, "I have money."
Gu Beichen has a terrible personality, but his character can be described in two words: get along with others.
The salesgirl hadn't left yet, and she also expressed her appreciation for Gu Beichen's behavior.
"Mr.'s friends are all very nice."
"Yeah, they're all good friends."
Xu Le also nodded, but his eyes had already shifted to these sealed relics.
The Ancient Sound Multi-Vision was opened, and Xu Le took out a card from his pocket:
"Will I be able to find what I want here?"
White Card-Four Leaf Clover
Xu Le smiled and said, it’s stable now, but it still needs to be more refined.
"I'm in this row. Can I find what I want?"
After drawing the card again, it was a forest.
This foggy feeling was very hazy. Xu Le felt that there was nothing wrong with his divination. Was it because no spiritual energy was injected
Then, a circle of spiritual energy ripples spread out from Xu Le's body.
The salesgirl looked at Xu Le in surprise.
As a service staff in a black alley, if nothing else, I can be said to be knowledgeable.
Isn’t the fluctuation on Xu Le’s body the warlock’s psychic power
"Sir, are you here?"
"Shh!"
Xu Le made a gesture to keep quiet, then drew a card.
Red Card-Heart
The salesgirl looked at the heart card and her chest heaved violently several times, but she didn't say anything.
Heart? Xu Le shook his head slightly, and with another wave of spiritual energy, he began a new divination.
The surprise in the salesgirl's eyes grew more and more, because Xu Le had already performed divination seven times in front of her.
How is this possible? What level is this warlock
After fortune-telling seven times, Xu Le looked at the four-leaf clover in his hand and smiled slightly.
Start scanning the relics on this row of shelves.
Information about the relics appeared in the ancient sound multi-perspective, and Xu Le circled around the shelf several times.
But at this time the salesgirl no longer dared to laugh, or even make a sound.
Afraid of disturbing the young Red Moon Warlock.
"Is this it?"
Xu Le took a rather large pocket watch from the shelf and looked at it.
Deathstroke-Seal
Ancient Sound Relics-SU
Death Knell - Effect: When you set all the hands of your pocket watch to 12 o'clock, a death knell will be released that will make all souls tremble.
Reset - Effect: The clock can only be reset once per hour.
Introduction: I really want to listen to the teachings of the light, so that my sins can be alleviated. (Unlocked after completing Wang Beichuan's last wish)
