Chapter 83 Black market and beads
“Using human slaves?” Leo suddenly remembered the underground black market that Jax once told him. There are prohibited items, human slaves explicitly forbidden, and some treasures of unknown origin. Of course, there is more deception and killing.
Such a place is naturally not in Blood Moon City, but it is not far away. In a small city called Shady City, it is less than 100 kilometers away from Blood Moon City. And according to Jax, the Grand Duke acquiesced to the existence of the black market, otherwise it would have been eradicated long ago.
“Shane, tell Frey in, I have something to tell him.”
…
An hour later, it was already dark. Frey took Leo’s deformed pighead, five family soldiers, and five barbarians, appeared in front of a hut in Shady City, and knocked on the door.
“What’s the matter?” A gloomy question came from inside.
“Friends of the Fauchette family, Guru, brought enough gold coins to buy what you need, Guru.” Leo controlled the pighead to walk up and said in a low voice. This is what Jax taught him. Without these words, people in the black market would not open the door.
There was silence inside, and soon the door opened. A very old woman crouched and whispered: “The Fauchette family is a famous and wealthy family. Since you are their friends, I believe you will be very Generous. Come in now.”
Rio deliberately trails Frey by a body, like a qualified alien slave. As previously stated, Frey threw a few gold coins to the janitor, and suddenly a smile appeared on her old face, nodded and said: “There will be no accidents in the West End tonight.”
This was also taught by Jax. By bribing this old woman, you can know where the high-quality shops on the black market are tonight, and you can trade there with peace of mind.
Frey bowed and thanked Leo as ordered, and then led Leo and others into the underground black market through a gloomy passage that slanted downwards.
This is a very huge space, a cave is connected to a cave, and you can’t see the head at a glance. Every cave is connected by a man-made road, and on the side of the road, there are many stalls or shops.
“Frei, go to the West End.” Leo’s deformed pighead whispered, and Frey immediately followed the sign and went straight to the West End. Although there may be good things in the other three districts, they may also encounter fraud, package drop, fake goods, etc., which is very time-consuming.
The so-called four areas in the southeast, northwest and northwest of this underground black market are actually the four largest caves, each of which is estimated to be the size of a football field. There is a slight gap between them, but they are basically the same, but the karst caves connecting these four areas are of different sizes. The small ones can only let one pass through, and the big ones are as big as a basketball court. Sometimes someone will set up stalls in these places.
Leo and the others walked slowly, about five or six small caves, and a medium-sized cave appeared in front of them. In this cave, apart from a passage, there are a few stalls scattered on both sides, and there are some odds and ends on the stalls. At first glance, you don’t know where to pick up rubbish.
“Sell the treasures left by the warlock for only ten gold coins!”
Leo and others stopped and looked at it. It was a worn-out stick with delicate patterns on it. It was barely an antique, but in this world, no one cared about an antique without power.
“I have a powerful weapon that I found in the ancient battlefield. It only costs nine gold coins.”
Well, this is an ordinary battle axe, without a trace of strange power, not even the lowest-level magic weapon. Of course, the lowest-level magic weapon starts with 100 gold coins, and he will not be so stupid to sell nine gold coins. .
“The treasures unearthed from the mysterious ruins only cost eight gold coins.”
That thing is just a dark stone, I can’t see the calendar, and I don’t know that it was picked up by the roadside.
At this time, Frey’s curiosity has been exhausted, and he waved his hand: “Big… well, it’s all tattered. Let’s go and go directly to the West End.”
Leo also had the same meaning. He nodded slightly and was about to start. He glanced over the last stall and suddenly saw a strange bead.
The thing is so austere and plain, it looks very inconspicuous, and there is no power fluctuation either. But from the moment Leo saw it, an indescribable strong desire surged in his heart, just wanting to eat it in one bite.
I used to eat crystal marrow and eggs, but now I don’t even let go of the beads? Leo felt extremely helpless, feeling that there might be rocks, branches, and steel waiting to be eaten by himself in the future, and he faintly resisted. But this desire was so strong that he took a few steps to leave, but stopped again, and it was difficult to refuse.
“Forget it, just eat it, maybe this thing is a great thing?” Leo turned his head and walked a few steps, and finally resigned himself and walked back.
The stall owner saw Leo coming back, and suddenly cried out in surprise: “As long as ten gold coins, everything is only ten gold coins.”
“Is everything a total of ten gold coins?” Leo used the body of a pighead and slowly pressed against the stall owner. The smelly body odor and tall body put a lot of pressure on the salesperson.
“No, no, no, yes, it’s a ten gold coin.” The stall owner stammered with a look of fear in his eyes.
“Oh…” Leo responded, suddenly dropped ten gold coins, picked up the bead and turned around and left. The stall owner came back to his senses, and immediately guessed that the beads were probably not ordinary things, and wanted to go back. But look at Leo’s group of people, especially the strong physique of the five barbarians. He cursed secretly and had to give up the idea of shame.
After walking out for a while, Leo took a closer look at the beads, and found no abnormalities, so he could only put it away first, and wait until he went back. Soon, a group of people arrived in the Western District and successfully found a shop selling human slaves.
The shopkeeper looked at Frey and tried hard to sell: “Our slaves are all from the war between human nations and are prisoners of war. The nobles are naturally redeemed, but the civilians simply don’t have enough money to redeem themselves. It is too wasteful to kill, and it is sold as a slave in a fair manner. Even if the senior leaders of various countries have ideas, they dare not violate the order of the disaster council. Therefore, most ordinary prisoners are killed, and those above the first level may have specialties. The prisoners of war, leave it to us. So you can rest assured that when you buy these slaves, no one will come to trouble you.”
Leo asked curiously: “Guru, can I use them publicly?”
The shopkeeper was taken aback, and said quickly: “That’s absolutely impossible. If he talks nonsense about making things happen, then it will be troublesome. Listen to me, generally, if you buy those capable slaves, you will spend another sum of money on the configuration. A set of control chains, once you flee or resist, you can immediately inspire the chains to kill him.”
