Ding, ding, ding...
The bell on the desk at the front desk rang immediately as Ye Qi pressed his fingers lightly; and amidst the crisp sound, the door of a closet behind the desk at the front desk was pushed open from the inside and outside. Come on, a middle-aged man in pajamas walked out with sleepy eyes
"Good evening, sir!"
Saying hello, the middle-aged man who was obviously the owner of the hotel rubbed his eyes, took out the registration book in the drawer of the desk at the front desk, flipped through it and said: "You are lucky, we still have two There are two empty rooms; one has a separate bathroom and can see the scenery on the street outside; however, the price is a little more expensive than the other rooms, which costs 80 yuan; while the other is a whole bedroom, if you wash it, you You need to go to the public bathroom; of course, it also has a good view from the window, so it also costs fifty yuan!"
"Which room are you going to choose?"
Looking at Ye Qi in front of him, the owner of the hotel wore a standard businessman's smile; in addition, with his sleepy eyes before, anyone would think that he was an ordinary businessman who ran a hotel. However, Ye Qi Keenly noticed that the moment the other party pushed open the door, his muscles all over his body were tense, and he looked like he was ready to make a surprise attack or retreat at any time. It was only after seeing him that he returned to his normal appearance.
Moreover, looking at the other party's walking posture, Ye Qi can be sure that the other party must have a dagger or pistol behind his waist, and the other party's callused palms are unintentionally exposed when he flips through the registration book. Undoubtedly, the former is much more likely , plus thick fingers. Obviously the opponent is also very good at unarmed combat.
This kind of observation is just Ye Qi's instinctive reaction as a demon hunter. It doesn't change just because you know it in advance, like practicing a skill. No matter how proficient the skill is, if you put it down for a long time and don't practice it, it will still become rusty, and the observation of this kind of witcher is the same; only continuous observation can keep it in an instinctive state. will not be forgotten.
"The one with the private bathroom!"
Taking out a banknote with a denomination of 100 yuan, Ye Qi handed it over; then. The moment the boss took the banknotes, the hand holding the coins quickly made a gesture; from the perspective of the hotel owner, he saw this gesture very clearly, and his eyes flashed, but, On the surface, he remained calm, took off a bunch of keys hanging on the wall next to him, walked out of the front desk, and said, "Sir, come with me, your room is on the second floor!"
Stairs leading to the second floor. It is located in the middle of the first floor of the entire hotel. After walking through about three rooms, Ye Qi followed the hotel owner to the second floor. After he opened the door, he walked into the second room on the right.
"Do you need supper? Potato beef and fried chicken, and some bread that was baked in the evening, only ten yuan!"
It’s like the boss who was selling the rest of the hotel’s food last night, talking with a smile on his face; but he kept making some gestures in his hands. The gestures between the chameleon and his subordinates are not just shown by one party; Only two confirmations by both parties can truly confirm the identity; and the gesture at this time is that the hotel owner began to confirm Ye Qi's identity.
"All right!"
Ye Qi, who pretended to be thinking about it, replied after responding to the other party's gesture.
"Please wait a moment, it will be served to you soon!"
The innkeeper made a final confirmation gesture.
"OK!"
Ye Qi immediately gave a response; and after this response, the hotel owner immediately withdrew his last trace of defense, he bowed to Ye Qi very respectfully, and his lowered voice was full of respect: "My lord, I am willing to serve you!"
With the female leader of Chameleon in Qianmao District as a lesson, he was not surprised at all, but handed the secret letter he had written a long time ago to the hotel in front of him, and the latter nodded knowingly, turned around and turned to the hotel in front of him. It has almost become the default rule for Chameleon's subordinates not to inquire much about their boss when they go out; and what they have to do is to do what the boss ordered.
About fifteen minutes later, the hotel owner with the plate knocked on the door again; he put the plate with food on the tea table in the room, and said that he would retrieve the plate tomorrow morning. The owner of the hotel gestured that everything was done, and with Ye Qi's slight nod, he turned and left the room, and helped Ye Qi close the door. Ye Qi, who had eaten enough food, Qi, did not touch the food on the dinner plate, but after locking the door, he began to restore the original appearance; after putting some unnecessary items belonging to 'Finger' back to the [dimension bag], Ye Qi He took out a cloak that he had been preparing since he had two dimensional bags and had extra carry-on space.
Boom!
Holding the corners of the cloak in both hands, he shook his arms vigorously, and immediately there was a unique friction sound between the brocade and the air; then, he turned his wrists, and the black cloak was draped over Ye Qi's shoulders; After putting it on, Ye Qi stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom, looked carefully for a while, and after confirming that no one would see his true face, he immediately walked out of the bathroom.
Without leaving immediately, Ye Qi took out the minor injury healing potion he bought before, and then took out a relic of the wizard emperor of the same level; he started several serious comparisons, and when the results of the comparisons were consistent Ye Qi put everything away with a smile on his face this time, and came to the window next to the big bed in the bedroom, pulled the 'l'-shaped latch, pushed open one of the windows, and turned into a black shadow , the fish jumped out, and disappeared into the night without a sound.
…
When Ye Qi appeared outside the Northstead family manor again, the flow of people in the wizarding city did not decrease as dawn entered, on the contrary, the number of people increased even more than when Ye Qi left before; Even, there was congestion in some places.
Of course, if such a situation occurs, it will naturally not be for no reason.
"This is a one-handed long sword mixed with powder that once belonged to the Silmarillion. Not only does it have the characteristics of unparalleled sharpness, but it is also blessed with thirty times of flames and strong winds! Therefore, anyone who uses a sword Masters, you should not miss such a weapon, it will be your most faithful companion in your life from now on!"
A middle-aged wizard held a standard long sword, demonstrating to the people around him that what he said was true. An ordinary one-handed long sword was lifted by him, and then, under the action of his two hands, the two long swords Immediately hit each other.
Clang!
Immediately, the ordinary long sword was split into two, but the magic-enhanced long sword was not damaged at all; amidst the exclamation of the crowd's admiration. The middle-aged wizard didn't stop there, and a wooden stake became his next target to cover up. With a whoosh, the flames wrapped the long sword, and the heat wave caused the people in the innermost circle to take two steps back involuntarily, and then All of them looked at the stake that was about to be split without blinking their eyes.
Click!
Everyone could see clearly that when the long sword was at least five centimeters away from the stake, the stake was split into two, and then the two halves of the stake ignited raging flames in an instant. After one breath, there was only a pool of ashes left on the ground, proving the existence of the wooden stake here.
"The price is twenty-five standard low-level magic crystals!"
The demonstration of the middle-aged wizard made everyone around him very excited. However, many people are discouraged by such a price, after all. Most of the dark mercenaries and demon hunters, even the people of the highest government, are very ordinary existences; they may have had such money, but it is most unlikely that a demon hunter with Kimpton will always have money. Go for a drink, treat yourself to a delicious meal or simply find something to relax, and so do the dark mercenaries and the people of the highest government who have special status.
However, not having enough money does not mean that these people will leave. They are still standing there, watching people who can really afford the price appear. Even if they can’t own it, they can see who owns it. ; and, when we meet in the future, there are not a few people who have a slightly deeper idea like a little more chance of winning; especially the latter is the real reason for those who stay and don't leave; after all, at this moment Peace is just a special situation in the wizarding city of Mishi, their real relationship is still hostile!
This kind of hostility naturally made them want to figure out whether the person who got a powerful weapon was an enemy
"Twenty-five standard low-level magic crystals, I want it!"
After a slight silence around, a person from the supreme government in uniform spoke directly; it is not very difficult to distinguish which faction he belongs to in the crowd; just like the demon hunter apostle There are apostle trench coats, ordinary witchers’ habitual hunting clothes, the highest government’s uniforms are mainly military and police uniforms, and the Holy See’s are priests’ and deacons’ robes; while the remaining various dresses are undoubtedly dark People from other forces in the world, apart from most of the dark mercenaries, there are also many businessmen who run special businesses.
As long as there are crowds, there will be business, even if it is a special group of people, there will be merchants who are willing to take risks to earn enough Kimpton for themselves; Naturally, there will be many people; just after the person from the highest government made an offer, a person dressed like a businessman made an offer with a smile unique to a businessman.
"Twenty-six dollars!"
According to the rules of the wizarding secret market, when competing for the same item, it is not by force, but the one with the highest price wins; this is naturally good news for pure businessmen; it allows them to let go of their last scruples and use their own For businessmen, force is a double-edged sword. Even if they know how to use it, they will also be scruples; of course, the proportion of the two will change as the situation changes, and at this moment in the wizard Mississauga has no such concerns at all.
"Twenty-seven dollars!"
"Twenty-eight dollars!"
Because of the rules of the wizard secret market, the businessman ignored the stare of the person from the highest government, and immediately began to increase the price after the other party quoted a price. Seeing the other party's anxious performance, Ye Qi guessed that the other party did not A lot of money, but I really want this sword.
Maybe this is his last fund and it doesn't have to be!
Ye Qi, who paused temporarily to watch this scene, thought that the reason why Wizard City attracts so many people is not only its safety. What's more important is the boutique that emerges from time to time; of course. This so-called boutique does not mean that it is placed in the hall of the North family at this moment. Those were obviously the ones that appeared as the grand finale; instead, they pointed to the special objects that popped up from time to time in these ordinary booths.
Everyone is lucky or has a flash of inspiration, and at such times, it is time for high-quality goods to appear. They may be a little worse than the finale items in the wizarding city, but they are definitely not too bad, and they are attractive enough. eyeballs; more importantly, they are placed in various ordinary booths, so that people can reach them.
Ye Qi would not believe it. Anyone can enter and leave the hall where the finale items of the wizarding secret city are placed. The reason why people are keen on power and fame is precisely because power and fame bring considerable status, and this status will make people have all kinds of things. Such a privilege, no
Of course, such so-called high-quality products will not appear randomly. As the trump card of every stall owner, they will always be played at critical moments; for example: soliciting business that was originally not good; When it attracts many attention, it seems to be now.
Glancing at the few items left on the table behind the middle-aged wizard, it was obvious that the other party planned to end the sale of the wizard's secret market early. It's not uncommon in the secret city of wizards; it's like the wizard Ye Qi first met who had a lot of research on potions and exploded his own cauldron. When he left before, the other party was already clearing up the sold-out booths; however, such booths will not be empty, some wizards who were waiting in line before will settle in these booths, and some in special areas did not grab the booths The dark mercenaries will also spend some Kimptons to rent these booths.
Just as Ye Qi guessed, a member of the top government special operation kept silent after the businessman raised the price again; Interrupted; a man who was dressed similarly to Ye Qi and covered his whole body in a cloak made an offer.
"Thirty dollars!"
"Thirty one!"
The businessman, whose expression changed, followed up with the quotation again; however, like the special service member of the supreme government who was forced to retreat by him before, he was also a little nervous at the moment; obviously, the same businessman and Compared with his previous opponents, his financial affluence is also quite limited.
"Thirty-five dollars!"
The person covered in the cloak made another quotation, and this time the quotation obviously exceeded the bottom line of the businessman; he shook his head in distress, and the businessman also retreated into the crowd; obviously, such a price was enough to make the people present Willingly hand over that good sword to others. After all, there may be something better in the Wizarding Secret City for almost two weeks, so they don't need to worry.
Therefore, after seeing that the last buyer paid for the corresponding magic crystal and got the long sword, the people around all dispersed and looked at other places; As the stall owner, the middle-aged wizard also adjusted the prices of the remaining items downward, and then sat back in his seat.
As for the buyer who finally succeeded, he mixed in the crowd early and went to other places. However, after everyone left, the businessman who had bid for the price turned back again. Although he changed his clothes, But the same fluctuations couldn't be hidden from Ye Qi; Ye Qi clearly saw the middle-aged wizard greeting the businessman with a smile on his face, and handed him a small cloth bag.
According to the fluctuation of [Blind Fight Perception], there are at least three standard units of low-level magic crystals inside.
Then, after the two sides chatted eagerly for a few words, the businessman left again, and Ye Qi, who saw everything in his eyes, shrugged with a smile; this approach may be inappropriate, but Ye Qi has not done justice yet. Feeling overwhelmed to expose; after all, this is the way the other party lives.
What's more, the magic long sword won't make the buyer lose too much. Of course, Ye Qi doesn't believe in the talk of Silmaril powder at all. It should be another kind of magic blessing similar to the 'sharpness technique' ;The blessing of the three types of magic power, although the latter two did not maximize the effect, but it is not bad; it may be far from the low-level magic crystal of thirty-five standard units, but if it is half, its value is still some.
Maybe if you can save yourself once with this sword, then it will far exceed the value at this moment.
With such thoughts in mind, Ye Qi walked straight towards the side hall of the Northstead family and only slightly approached. [Blind Fighting Perception] sensed the fluctuation of the bishop who belonged to the leader of the Holy See in the main hall. Obviously, directly It is not appropriate to enter.
"Outsiders, stop!"
Even if it is only a side hall, there are still guards from the Nord family.
"Is Master Fletcher here?"
While talking, Ye Qi slightly opened the hood, only showing half of his face to the guards; although he still had a normal face hidden, this picture will never be forgotten by anyone in the Northstead family. The owner of the face and the owner of the family have instructed what to do when they see each other; the two guards will bow and salute immediately.
"I just want to meet Patriarch Fletcher, please keep quiet!"
"Yes, my lord! Please wait a moment!"
After one of the guards gestured to the other, the latter immediately ran towards the side hall, while the remaining guard made a gesture of invitation to Ye Qi towards the side hall.
