"However... luck is also good. I just wanted to find a guide, and the guide showed up on my own initiative..."
Leylin looked at the group of white-robed swordsmen, a light blue fluorescent light flashed in the bottom of his eyes, and he got up and left immediately.
"What's wrong?"
The fellow mage looked at the swordsman for a moment, and asked in astonishment.
"It's nothing, I felt something was wrong just now!" The swordsman's eyes were a little puzzled, he put his right hand on the handle of the knife and looked around, and finally sat back in doubt.
At the moment just now, he felt terrified, as if the crisis of life and death was in front of him, but when he sensed it carefully, he couldn't find the source of the danger at all.
"Maybe you are too nervous. We are operating secretly this time, and the news cannot be leaked..."
Another man in black robe said in a deep voice.
"may be!"
The swordsman sat down slowly, holding the scimitar, but the cloud on his brow couldn't dissipate no matter what.
…
On the other side, Leylin had already walked out of the store, wandering in the streets full of pedestrians.
"It's a good perception. I can actually feel my 'maliciousness'. Although it's only for a moment, it's also very remarkable. I'm afraid it will be promoted to [Legendary] within a few years. The premise is that the other party must survive..."
"Guest from afar, take a look! Old Jaffa must have the best stuff here..."
Obviously, Leylin's aristocratic attire, ruddy face, and gorgeous accessories all showed his status as a wealthy man, and immediately attracted the siege of many small traders.
Especially an elderly Caucasian male with light golden curly hair, holding a dark golden scepter in front of Leylin's eyes: "Look...the lines and decorations, this is when old Jiefa was an adventurer, he escaped from death It was excavated from an ancient ruin, and it is rumored that it contains the mystery of the ancient Sun Dynasty. Now you only need a hundred gold kro, and it is yours... "
"Ancient Sun Dynasty?"
Leylin had a teasing smile on his face, but he stopped in his tracks. Seeing that Old Jiefa shouted that he was having fun, he introduced it vigorously.
"Hmm! This is a large dynasty that existed in the Western Desert when it was not a great desert. It is rumored that there is a golden river flowing with honey and milk, and the ground is paved with gold letters. Among this scepter is It hides the secret treasure of the original Sun Dynasty... "
"Your name is Jaffa, isn't it?"
Leylin stopped in front of the small stall, looked at this old man who was obviously not of desert race: "Why did you settle down here?"
"Well... it was all the adventure life back then, which made me meet the mother of the child now, so naturally I can't leave..."
Old Jiefa laughed. Although his face looked relatively simple and honest, it still couldn't hide the cunning in his eyes.
"How about it? Seeing that we are also from the south, I can give you ten gold kroes cheaper. This is the pity of the goddess of luck..."
"Let me take a look first..." Leylin's expression seemed a little moved, and he squatted down in front of the other party's booth.
"Are these all from that relic?" The other party put all kinds of golden patterns on a greasy black spread, and some of them were covered with a layer of rust, which looked very similar.
It's a pity that since his talent was promoted and he obtained the legendary level of extensive knowledge, Leylin's identification technique has reached the full level, and he has a huge database of chips, so he can see the flaws at a glance.
Those so-called relics and antiques are actually all fake.
"Hmm! It looks really good, maybe it can be hung on the wall of my house as a decoration..."
Leylin picked up a golden mask carved with the appearance of a cobra, and commented lightly.
"Of course! Of course! For a distinguished guest like you, how can there be no decent ancient relic products in the collection room?"
Old Jiefa's smiling face seemed to be wrinkled into a chrysanthemum.
"This... this, and this, I want them all..." Leylin was playing the role of a fooled nobleman, asking for seven or eight things in a row, and Jayfa laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.
"And these, these..."
Leylin kept moving his hands and ordered almost everything on the booth.
"Now old Jiefa has made a fortune..." Several vendors around him stared at Jiefa with envious eyes.
"I bought all of these, um... But it seems to be a little troublesome to carry..." Leylin showed a look of embarrassment on his face.
"No trouble! No trouble at all!"
Old Jiefa quickly removed a few things that Leylin didn't want, his hands were as fast as a well-trained high-level thief, and then he collected the four corners of the spread and quickly packed them into a big package : "How about it? Look, it's easy, right? Small ones can also deliver things to the hotel where you're staying..."
There was a flattering smile on Old Jiefa's face: "A total of 1,300 and 72 quincros were wiped off..."
"These..." Leylin acted very much like those fat sheep and high rollers: "Okay! Do you accept receipts from the Temple of Wealth, or come with me to collect gold coins?"
…
Ms. Fortune claims to open the Temple of Fortune in every market on the mainland, and naturally she will not let go of a market as large as West Desert. There is a special temple in the small town to serve merchants.
After walking out of the temple, Leylin sent away the thankful Old Jiefa, and walked to a corner of the street.
"I didn't expect that those street vendors actually had some good things in their hands..."
bang! bang! Leylin directly lifted the big package in his hand, and all those gold-plated fake relics were scattered on the ground, like garbage.
"A piece of legendary monster skin, it seems to have recorded some other things..."
At this time, Leylin was staring at the black and greasy spread in his hand, and his eyes had a bright blue light that kept flickering.
Yes, what he really valued was the thing in his hand that was treated as a spread by the other party.
"I don't know how this piece of animal skin fell into the other party's hands. Could it be that Jayfa was really an adventurer?"
Leylin rubbed his chin, but he didn't pay much attention to this aspect. Since he had already paid for it, then this thing was his. As for how Jayfa got it, he didn't even bother to care about it.
"Well! Even if the material itself is worth the fare, as for the information hidden on it, it needs a chip to decrypt it..."
Leylin knew very well the history of West Desert.
Because in essence, this area used to be the core area of the Arcanist Empire. It was once extremely glorious in the Nether Arcane Age, with beautiful and rich land and a large population.
It's a pity that with the demise of the Nether Arcane Empire, and the continuous wars in the later period, and even the actions of the gods, the Western Desert was completely barren.
Otherwise, how could the arcanist who jumped from another dimension stay here in the floating city
"Judging from the structure of the secret lock, it doesn't seem to be something left by the [arcanist], but it also has extraordinary power... It may even contain all the mysteries of a lost civilization..."
Leylin's eyes became brighter and brighter.
If Jaffa knew the secret of this piece of animal skin, he might be so discouraged and annoyed that he would hit the wall and commit suicide.
In any case, Leylin, who got the treasure, was in a good mood. After walking out of the corner, he checked the things on the booth more attentively.
With his knowledge and experience, naturally nothing good can escape from his eyes.
It's a pity that the real good thing is only the previous one, and there is nothing that can make Leylin's eyes shine.
…
"Woo... help us, who will help us..."
But at this moment, a burst of crying caught Leylin's attention, causing him to walk forward. The traffic in front of him was suddenly blocked, forming a big circle, and there were loud voices coming from the middle, which made Leylin's heart skip a beat. , got together.
In the center of the flow is an adventurer lying on the ground, next to a crying little girl.
The adventurer had a weathered look on his face, and he looked quite old. At this time, his lips were black and blue, which was obviously due to some sudden illness.
"Uncle! Uncle! Wake up..." The girl's crying seemed so helpless under the crowd watching.
"It should be poisoned, there are a lot of poisons near the desert..."
An experienced mercenary stepped forward, touched the lying adventurer's neck, and then opened his eyelids to check: "Unless there is a specific antidote, I can't help it. Do you know what kind of poison he is poisoned?" ?”
"I... I don't know, Vivienne is so useless, woo... uncle..."
The little girl was taken aback when she heard the words, and then cried even more sadly.
"Ah...under such circumstances, unless a senior priest passes by and is willing to perform [advanced detoxification], otherwise..."
The adventurer looked around: "Which of you is a high-ranking priest?"
The flow of people avoided, obviously too lazy to cause any trouble.
If someone is dead, the security team will come over soon, and even going to ask questions will take a lot of time, and maybe they will have to accept blackmail from those shameless jailers and officials. a lot.
Pedestrians were bustling with each other, but they turned a blind eye to the adventurer and the crying little girl lying on the ground, full of a kind of indifference.
"Little sister! Let's think of other ways... at least find a hotel or something..."
The mercenary also had a look of embarrassment on his face. He obviously saw the impatient urging on his companion's face, and then his voice froze again. He obviously thought of it. No hotel would accept an adventurer who was on the verge of death. troublesome.
"well… "
Thinking of this, the mercenary also had bitterness on his face, and put a small bag of copper in front of the crying little girl: "Take it and bury your uncle properly!"
Then he strode away, walking fast, as if he was afraid of something.
