Chapter 71: A Preliminary Study of the Black Market
The reason why the black market is so called.
There are three reasons: first, there are a lot of stolen goods being sold; second, there are many unidentified people coming and going here; third, there is no record of buying or selling anything.
Why does there exist such a black market that destroys harmony in the city of Reversos?
Perhaps only those who capture the lion's share of the profits created by the black market know why.
Link didn't dare to think deeply.
I chose to come to the black market in broad daylight and explore this place for safety reasons.
No matter how chaotic the Western District is, no matter how many murderers there are in the black market, they still don't dare to commit murder in broad daylight.
As long as Link doesn't mess around, it's basically impossible for anything to happen.
The main tower and the city hall only acquiesce in the West District's development in the direction of chaos and the existence of the black market, but will not condone the ferocious flames of the West District and the black market to become too arrogant.
Since the founding of Reversos City, the main tower and the city hall have cracked down on the black market and raided the West End so many times that there are too many to count.
Whenever the chaos in the West District seems to be getting out of control, and the scale of the black market must be curbed, a ruthless iron fist will always be struck.
A catfish is a catfish, how can it be made into a sperm?
With so many turbulent historical lessons, how can the West End and the Black Market not make progress?
Although chaos is still the background, killing is still the norm.
However, a reckless man who has no brains, robs and kills everyone he sees will not live long, and he is not even qualified to receive an iron fist.
For example, a few months ago, that idiot dared to sell a witchcraft that could block the signals of intelligent law enforcement puppets for a period of time into the academy.
Isn't that just looking for death when there is nothing to do?
Who among those who hang out in the West District and the black market has no connection with the college, and who doesn’t know the college’s red line?
How dare you commit a crime and destroy the college's security system? It's simply outrageous!
What a departure!
Even if you can argue that the magic weapon is on the verge of damage and can only be used once, it won't be long.
so what?
Later, the law enforcement department of the college was contacted.
Not only did he die, but he also caused harm to the point where all the witchcraft related to the intelligent law enforcement puppets in the Western District were confiscated and destroyed.
What made many owners and stall owners in the black market even more distressed was that the law enforcement department of the college later joined forces with the city hall and the police bureau to launch a month-long crackdown on the black market.
How many magic stones had to be given to satisfy the appetite of that group of people and in exchange for the reopening of the black market.
Many property owners and stall owners are eagerly waiting for their return.
In the past few months, I have sent messages to various organizations in the West District every few days, not to touch the customers who come to the black market.
Under such circumstances, if those street gangsters following Link dared to misbehave with Link near the black market, the
guards of the black market would have to spread the ashes of the street gangsters without Link taking action.
Link suddenly walked into the black market.
Taking this step, Link has completely taken the initiative to step out of the ivory tower, leave the safe zone, and enter the arena of life and death.
It was only then that Link was willing to admit that the reason for his sudden change in style and his bravery and radicalization was greatly influenced by Wizard Paro's words.
How could Sophie Lucia, with a surname that she didn't take the initiative to show off, be able to suppress Link from reciprocal retaliation?
It is the power, influence and strength that support the intimidating power of the name Lucia!
On weekdays, Link doesn't say anything and doesn't show it on his face, but is he really not complacent in his heart?
In the first semester of entering Riversoth College of Biology and Medicine, he was already attacking the third-class wizard apprentice.
This speed is unprecedented, not to mention unprecedented, but at least it can be compared with those great powers who have left their names in history.
Link didn't slack off in his behavior, and he still worked hard in his studies, but his mind was indeed a little wandering.
Wizard Paro's words were like a blow to the head, waking up Link.
Since the starting point of this game of life is already behind, we can only hope to catch up if we work harder than others.
So, Link stepped out of his comfort zone and went to the West End.
At the entrance of the black market, Link took on a mask that could sense other people's witchcraft exploration on him, and walked towards the underground black market.
At first there was a dark tunnel, which lasted for more than a minute.
Then it suddenly dawned.
A huge market with an area approximately equal to five or six football fields appeared in front of us.
There are no shops in the black market, just stalls.
However, some stalls have higher-level stall owners and can be separated into compartments.
Those with insufficient levels can only set up stalls “in the open air”.
The stalls are also divided into sections, such as books and documents, witchcraft tools, rune items, vehicles, mechas, plants, terrestrial animals, aquatic animals... there are all kinds of
items in various categories.
The black market allows buyers and sellers to bargain, and even encourages bargaining, but the purchase is done away with.
After the transaction is concluded, even if the goods are found to be different as soon as you leave the stall, you cannot hold the stall owner accountable.
In the same way, stall owners cannot increase the selling price to buyers who have missed out.
This can be regarded as a kind of fairness.
Link kept his character in mind, a rookie who had been to the black market a few times but didn't have much experience.
He didn't look around, but after a little procrastination, he went straight to the witchcraft model scroll area.
At this time, there were not many customers in the black market.
Link's behavior was more conspicuous. As soon as he walked from the book literature section to the witchcraft model scroll section, he attracted the attention of several stall owners.
"What do you want?"
The stall owner closest to Link is a young man with a green face.
I guess he just took over the stall and may not have enough experience. When he saw Link coming, he immediately stood up and greeted him.
Even the greetings seemed unprofessional.
Link didn't pay attention to this, stopped and asked: "Are there any water or wood attack magic spells?" "
Yes, yes, yes, please wait a moment."
When the young man saw that it was really possible to get business, he immediately He responded repeatedly and started rummaging around the stall.
"The one on your left hand side is a 1st level witchcraft. There are not many, only 5. The one on the right is a 0th level witchcraft, with 13 levels." After a while, the young
stall owner pulled out a dozen scrolls and divided them into two. Hei, he said, "I can give you a detailed introduction, do you need it?"
"I'll take a look first."
Link waved his hand and rejected the young stall owner's kindness, and went straight to look at the introduction to the 0-ring witchcraft.
Level 1 witchcraft, he didn't even look at it.
Whether a person is a wizard apprentice or a formal wizard has a different temperament, and others can tell it at a glance.
It is almost impossible to find witchcraft model scrolls on the black market as a third-level wizard apprentice who needs level 1 witchcraft as the pinnacle of natal witchcraft.
When it reaches that point, the college will definitely provide support.
Link doesn't need to slap his face to look fat.
After reading the introduction, only 2 of the 13 0-level witchcraft are more suitable for Link.
One is water blade technique, and the other is thorn whipping.
Water Blade is a variation of Water Ball, and Thorn Whip is a variation of Thorn Entanglement.
Or to be more precise, they are witchcraft developed based on approximate ideas.
After shopping around, Link didn't make a decision in a hurry.
He also wanted to go to other stalls to take a look and choose.
The expectation on the young man's face disappeared instantly.
