Chapter 603 Trade
"Is it here?" Vincent muttered as he went to a dark alley and found the tavern that matches the description Maxime gave him.
After a few moments of hesitation, Vincent entered the tavern and realized that there were plenty of customers inside.
Most of them, have small Automatons beside them completely different from other taverns he had seen before. It was quite a sight to see but he didn't stare for too long.
A few people glanced in his direction so he shifted his gaze... As soon as walked to the bartender and was about to order, someone greeted him. It was another person seated in front of the bar.
"So you've come… Commander Maxime mentioned you might come today so I came here waiting. Ahh, I'm Emil, one of the Crystal Tier Manipulators in his command."
A man in his late twenties said as he saw Vincent approach…
Vincent wasn't too surprised by this as he acknowledged the man's words.
"I'm Vincent. I know that Maxime has a high position but I didn't expect him to be a commander."
"Haha… Is that so? Will you order a drink first or do you want to visit the place now?" Emil asked softly.
Since Vincent wasn't in the mood to drink he decided to just let Emil lead him to the secret trading area.
"Let's go… I'm not sure how much time I'll be using in the place. I heard from Sir Maxime that there might be plenty of things there I might need."
"Mhmm… That's true… I guess you also have plenty of valuable things with you. Are you using a space ring? You're not carrying any bag at all." Emil asked.
"Ahh… You're right."
"No wonder…" Emil smiled as he stood up to lead Vincent to another room inside the tavern. Emil only nodded to the bartender while Vincent followed.
The room seems to be a normal storage room but there is a door leading to an underground passageway… It was only a few minutes of walking when they arrived at the backyard of a certain manor.
Emil and Vincent met a few people who seem to be servants of the manor but they didn't even bother looking at them while entering the manor from the backdoor.
Vincent remained silent as he observed the place carefully.
Soon, they arrived at what seemed like a museum of ancient relics… There were plenty of items covered in a glass case.
The only difference between the museum and this one was the fact that there are prices listed on each item. The prices are listed to a certain amount of Spirit Stones or a trade of an item with an equal value…
'Interesting…' Vincent mused as he realized that the owner of this place had also collected various items from the First Rapture.
He can easily guess this much since the items are all modern equipment that shouldn't exist in this current era. There are devices, parts of armor, parts of engines, and parts of a spaceship, that seem to have been recovered from the wreckage of the First Rapture. He even found some exquisite-looking glass bottles…
If this is really from the First Rapture, he guessed that this bottle might even contain the Mystic Link Serum that the Celestial Beings needed to recover their Celestial Energy.
Of course, that is only a guess since it could also be an item that was used by other races who were able to enter this land as well.
'I like to appraise them but I can't do touchless Appraisal yet…' Vincent sighed as he continued looking around.
He found a crown that was embedded with various jewels and it looks quite new.
Name: Ghost Crown
Description: A crown that allows all Mind Cultivators to increase the number of their Automatons they can control. The increase depends on the strength of the wearer.
Price: 190 Mid-Tier Spirit Stones
Trade: Any Magic Item that can help a person fly even for a short duration.
'It's too eye-catching…' Vincent mused as he continued walking.
"This only the first floor… If you can't find anything here, I can you lead to the second floor." Emil said after noticing how Vincent was only casually walking around.
"No wonder… I'll take my time for now. Are you just going to follow me?"
"Yes… I have nothing to do anyway. Commander Maxime already paid me with 2 days off so I have to do a proper job. Heh heh…"
"So it was like that…" Vincent smiled as well as his gaze stopped in front of a necklace.
"Hmm?" Vincent was shocked after seeing the item with a green fang as its pendant.
He had no idea what the necklace is but he couldn't avert his gaze after seeing the price written on it.
Name: Unappraisable Fang Necklace
Description: Any form of Appraisal is impossible. The only information known is that the wearer of this fang might allow you to meet a Deity of this world. This is according to the ancient books found in the Library Dungeon.
Price: 100 High-Tier Spirit Stones
The price was so ridiculous compared to the other items being sold! It hasn't even been appraised! Who knows if it's really working? It might even be a scam.
'Well, meeting a deity is indeed quite enticing…' Vincent mused.
Then his eyes looked below the price and his eyes froze for a moment.
Trade: 15 drops of Mythical Beast's Blood
He may not have 100 high-tier Spirit Stones but he can certainly get a Mythical Beast's Blood.
"Emil… I don't have a drop of a Mythical Beast's Blood in my possession yet. However, I can acquire them after returning to my place. Do you know the seller of this item?" Vincent asked.
"Oh? I know the seller. It's the owner of this manor, Sir Lockwell. Furthermore, all the items on the first floor are his. The ones on the second floor are those items brought by the members of the group or other important people."
"I see…"
"Don't worry, no one will trade for this necklace… A mythical beast's blood is just too impossible to obtain. Furthermore, you need 15 of them…" Emil added as he shook his head…
