Chapter 825: Fair
Walking through this gate, Jing Chen couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Unlike what he imagined, there was a unique world behind this gate. This was a huge hall, which was slightly deserted from the outside. It was simply a crowded place. As soon as Jing Chen came in, the noisy sound suddenly came to his face. Standing at the door, Jing Chen's eyes swept across the entire hall, and saw a hall of tens of thousands of square meters. There were a number of stone platforms in the hall. The stone platforms were arranged extremely neatly. At this moment, there were a lot of things on the stone platforms.
These things are also different, some are dazzling and some are dull, but the sellers of these stalls all look mysterious. Many buyers come forward to ask, and they look ignorant. Jing Chen was a little puzzled. Could it be that these people are not here to sell things?
"Haha." Rios' laughter sounded, and he heard him slowly say, "Xiaochen, there is a saying that the sellers hate to be too little. You see, these sellers all look like this. In fact, he is just looking at you. Whether you really need it. This kind of place is different from the places in the Enchantment Hall. There is no clear price tag system. If you need it, it will be more expensive. If you don't need it, it will be cheaper, or you won't do your business at all."
After hearing Rios's words, Jing Chen suddenly realized, "So that's what I said." Then his heart moved slightly, and his face was expressionless, and he walked forward into the hall.
"You can teach me, haha..." Rios laughed at himself.
Jing Chen wandered in the hall like a wandering in the garden, but in fact it was convenient for Rios to feel the breath of that thing more easily. It was also a time-consuming thing to wander around this crowded hall. Jing Chen just stopped occasionally and took a look. It took nearly an hour to see more than a dozen stalls. What made Jing Chen the most helpless was that not only Rios did not feel the breath of the thing needed, but he didn't even see what he needed, which was like a waste of time.
"Xiao Chen, that breath should come from the upper floor, not here." Rios asserted.
Jing Chen nodded slightly. He had been walking around here for a long time. There was really nothing that made him moved. Since the things that Rios was looking for were not here, he didn't have to waste time here. Thinking of this, Jing Chen looked up in the hall and searched the stairs leading upstairs.
After searching for a long time, Jing Chen was still confused. There was no place in this huge hall that looked like a staircase. In a confused mind, Jing Chen couldn't help but hold a uniformed staff member next to the hall and asked, "Disturbate, where is the place where the upstairs is here?"
When he heard Jing Chen's question, the man was stunned at first. When he saw the bright silver badge on Jing Chen's chest, he was shocked. He immediately became much better and said respectfully, "Please look, sir..." The man pointed to a place outside the hall. Jing Chen looked along his fingers and saw that there were some places similar to small rooms in those places. At the door of each room, there were two big men guards. Judging from the strength of those big men, they were probably all level five peak powerhouses.
Seeing Jing Chen's eyes looking there, the staff member continued, "Sir, these doors are the passages leading to the second floor, you can tell at a glance."
Jing Chen nodded in a vague way, and came to the nearest door. After a closer look, it turned out that this place was the magic gate in the magic space, not the stairs that Jing Chen thought.
Seeing Jing Chen coming, the two guards bent down slightly and said in unison, "Sir, please go upstairs."
Jing Chen no longer hesitated and walked slowly to the magic gate. He felt that the magic gate was a little different from the gate of the magic tent, and this gate was slightly suctioned.
"This is not the door of the magic space, but the door of the space. The owner of this place has such a big deal. It is rare that it is willing to give such a move in this shop." Rios' tone was also a little surprised.
Jing Chen no longer hesitated, and walked into it with his legs raised, feeling a breeze flowing through his body. The next moment, Jing Chen found that he had arrived in another hall. As soon as he entered the second floor, Jing Chen felt that his ears suddenly became much quieter. Although there were people here doing transactions, there were fewer people. Of course, the area of the second floor was much smaller than that of the first floor. The milky white marble was spread on the ground and looked extremely clean and tidy. In this hall, all the tables were carved from this white marble. Although the patterns on it were not complicated, it also exuded a graceful and grand beauty, which was far from the same level as that floor.
Of course, those who can reach this second floor are not ordinary people. On the chests of these people, they at least carry the level 4 enchantist bronze badge issued by the Enchantment Hall headquarters, and everyone is also quietly watching what they need.
"Xiaochen, the thing is there!" Just as Jingchen was observing the environment, Rios's voice sounded again.
Following the direction Rios pointed, Jing Chen came to a white marble platform. The difference here is that the sellers here usually barter. After all, those who can come here are not bad, and the materials and items they take out are naturally not ordinary things. Moreover, gold coins are not very meaningful to these people, so it is better to exchange for some things they need.
When he saw a young man coming to his platform, the old man in purple robe behind the white marble platform looked up at Jing Chen. The first thing the old man looked at was Jing Chen's chest. After all, whether it was brought by the elders in the family or came up by himself, the badges that the enchantment hall would always be issued. Seeing the bright silver level 5 enchantist badge on Jing Chen's chest, the old man was slightly stunned, but he was not as surprised as others.
Jing Chen also looked at the old man's chest, but saw that it was empty. He couldn't help but be stunned. He raised his head and looked at the old man with some confusion. Jing Chen didn't say much. As the saying goes, existence is reasonable. Since the old man with purple robe can stand here, it means that he is qualified to stand here. As for the presence or absence of the badge, Jing Chen just said that he didn't understand the rules here.
Seeing that Jing Chen didn't ask much, a trace of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes. Like Jing Chen's level 5 enchantress, this purple-robed old man had seen many, but he had never seen any of them before. He looked at Jing Chen with a profound meaning. The old man smiled and said, "Little brother, is it the first time I came to this trade fair? The face is so tight."
Jing Chen didn't cover up any more, and nodded with a smile and responded, "Yes, it's really the first time I'm here. Mr., how do you sell the things here?" Jing Chen asked casually.
"Don't sell, just change." The old man said in a deep voice, his voice was sonorous and powerful, without any room for negotiation.
Jing Chen was mentally prepared for the answer of the old man in purple robe, and couldn't help but ask, "How to change this thing?" As Jing Chen said that, he pointed to a light green crystal on the corner of the white marble stone platform in front of him. To be honest, this crystal did not look good, and it looked a little dim, just like a magic core that had lost all its energy. No matter how Jing Chen felt it, he could not sense any energy fluctuations in this thing.
You should know that Jing Chen has one of the seven ancient gods, the God of Rashir in the World Tree. Even he cannot feel the energy fluctuations on it. There are only two possibilities. The first is that this thing is a divine object, which has exceeded the scope of the ordinary. Therefore, although Jing Chen has the God of Rashir, his strength is still very weak after all, so it is normal that he cannot sense it; the second is that this thing is a waste product and has no effect.
But since this thing is something that Rios likes, there is naturally no possibility of the first possibility. Jing Chen didn't believe that Rios would make such a boring joke with him. Thinking of this, Jing Chen couldn't help but take a look at the somewhat dim green crystal. Even though he knew that this thing might be a first-class material, Jing Chen still couldn't convince himself that this thing was really a thing that seized the fortune of heaven and earth.
The old man's eyes fell on the dim green crystal along Jing Chen's eyes. He couldn't help but frown. He reached out and picked up the light green crystal and held it in his hand. It seemed that he was evaluating the value of the thing. But it was not difficult for anyone with a discerning eye to see that the old man was actually observing Jing Chen's reaction. To be honest, he almost didn't know what his things were on the white marble platform now, and he didn't know what it was for, but these things were the gains of his famous mountains and rivers in the past century. Some even had terrifying monster guards. Based on this point, he guessed that these things were definitely not simple, so he came to the second floor to sell them.
Unfortunately, the old man was destined to be disappointed this time. Jing Chen looked at him calmly. There was no change in his slightly tender face. Seeing this, the old man couldn't help frowning and opened his eyes and said, "This thing was discovered in the depths of the Sighing Swamp more than fifty years ago. The monster that guarded this thing at that time was a three-headed lord-level monster, so..." The old man looked up and handed Jing Chen a "you understand" look, and stopped talking.
"Lord level? Three more?" Jing Chen showed an extremely shocked look. He looked at the old man and then said in a deep voice, "Don't talk about the three lord level monsters, I'm afraid there is not even a lord level monster to guard this thing. Old sir, do you know what this thing is?" Jing Chen looked at the old man with a joking look.
"I... Of course I don't know. Do you know I still need to put it here? I've already taken it upstairs to put it on." The old man's face turned slightly red and he hurriedly defended, but he didn't dare to look at Jing Chen at all.
"Puchi..." Jing Chen suddenly laughed, as if he was laughing at the old man bragging. Seeing Jing Chen's appearance, the old man raised his eyebrows and raised them again and again. Just when the old man was about to get angry, Jing Chen suddenly stopped laughing and bowed to the old man with a little embarrassed expression, "Sorry, sorry, the old man is really sorry. I couldn't help it. The reason why I laughed was because this thing was not something else, but a thing that was always available to the elves in ancient times and the fruit of life."
"Fruit of Life?" Hearing the name Jing Chen said, the old man was stunned and repeated it. Then he didn't care about what Jing Chen had just laughed at him and asked, "What is the Fruit of Life? How could it be a common object of the elves in ancient times?" The words just now were indeed compiled by the old man. Not only was this set of words, no matter what Jing Chen took on the white marble platform, the old man said this. As for when and how he got these things, how could he remember them all.
Jing Chen smiled slightly and said, "This fruit of life is also magical. This is a necessary item for the elves in ancient times. It can supplement the energy needed for the elves' army in daily life, similar to... similar to the dry food brought by our army now, but the energy contained in this thing is relatively stable, one can be eaten by an elves warrior for hundreds of years."
"What? Dry food?!" The old man didn't mention what it felt like at this moment. If the function of this thing is really as Jing Chen said, let alone the monster, even if it is picked up by ordinary people, they may not treasure it. Of course, there must be a prerequisite for all this, and the person, like Jing Chen, knows the use of this thing.
"Then what do you want this thing to do?" The old man looked at Jing Chen in confusion. Since the young man in front of him could become a level 5 enchantist at such an age, he was probably not as simple as he saw it on the surface. Since he already knew that this thing could be said to be useless, why did he come to buy this thing for himself? As the saying goes, be careful to sail for a thousand years. This old man is a regular customer in this trade fair. He has seen all kinds of cunning buyers and sellers. He doesn't want to capsize the boat in the hands of this young man and make people "tiaobao" on his own.
With a casual smile, Jing Chen said, "I am an elf man myself, and I have half of the elf bloodline. I like adventure even more, so with this thing, I can save a lot of trouble when taking risks in the future. Since I see, of course I am going to buy it, but at this price..." Jing Chen's eyes did not reveal much information, and the old man in purple robe looked at Jing Chen with some hesitation.
After pondering for a moment, the old man seemed to have made a big decision and said, "Selling can be sold to you, but at this price..." When it comes to the price, the old man couldn't help but drag a long voice. The main old man was still a little unwilling to take this opportunity to test Jing Chen again. Unfortunately, he was disappointed again. The young man in front of him seemed not so concerned about the thing on his stall. Just as he was dragging the long voice, he clearly saw a hint of disgust in the other party's eyes. This reaction was obviously a reaction when treating something he didn't like very much.
Seeing the disgust in Jing Chen's eyes, the old man did not dare to drag it down any longer and hurriedly said, "A level 5 peak enchantment ball."
Jing Chen frowned slightly, looked at the old man, and his face showed a look of disappointment, saying, "It's expensive." As he said that, his eyes seemed to wander around the old man's stall, he suddenly picked up an ordinary black stone and said, "If you sell these two things to me together, I can give you a level 5 peak enchantment ball."
Seeing Jing Chen picking up something from his stall again, the old man glanced at it habitually. Seeing the thing, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes. There was no other reason. This thing was discovered by him from an abandoned black fire crystal mine. He originally didn't know what it was. Later, he got it to a director who taught the geography department at the Royal Flan College. The person told him that this was a companion creature of the black fire crystal mine and could be used to burn and heat things.
The old man in purple robe clearly remembered that when he continued to ask if this thing had any other functions, the director's expression, the middle-aged man who looked much younger than him, looked at him in confusion and said, "Do you think what's the function of this thing? Generally, this kind of thing will be used up by mining workers. This may not be used up at that time, and it's all left, and there's nothing else to use."
Of course, despite hearing the man say this, the old man put out the black stone with a mentality of filling in the numbers. Although no one has ever been concerned about it, the old man just held the mentality of trying great luck and didn't have much expectations for this thing. Today, seeing Jing Chen pick up this thing, the old man was of course happy. He was so satisfied with taking a stone that could only be used as dry food for the elves and adding a useless ore to exchange it for a level five peak enchantment ball.
The old man was about to agree, but when he saw Jing Chen turning around and leaving, he hurriedly asked, "Little brother, why? Don't you want to change?" At this moment, his voice was no longer as casual as before, and his very polite look made Jing Chen feel slightly happy.
Just as Jing Chen was arguing with the old man in purple robe, Rios told Jing Chen again that the black stone was a bit extraordinary and probably useful, so he asked him to buy it together. Jing Chen turned his eyes and acted in such a play. When Jing Chen saw the old man calling him, he couldn't help but hesitate, "Although I really want to get one of the fruits of life, the price of your old one is a little higher, and when two to one, I seem to have taken advantage of your old one, so..."
Hearing Jing Chen's words, the old man was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly picked up the two things that Jing Chen had liked and handed them to Jing Chen, saying, "Where are you and I have a fate when you meet today. If you change two or two, then two or two, it's okay for me to suffer a little loss. Who made me so much older than you?" After saying that, he looked at Jing Chen with a smile on his face, but there was a bit of sincerity in this smile, and others didn't know.
Jing Chen pretended to be stunned, and then said to the old man apologetically, "Old brother, why are you so embarrassed?" After saying that, he was about to push the things in his hand back.
"It's okay! It's okay! Little brother, if you don't change with me today, you just look down on me, so we'll just say that!" As he said that, the old man stuffed the two things into Jing Chen's hand, and Jing Chen seemed to have no choice but to look at the two things in his hand. A silver light flashed with his right hand, and a level 5 peak enchantment ball suddenly appeared in Jing Chen's hand, handing it to the old man hesitantly.
When the old man in purple robe saw Jing Chen taking out the enchantment ball, he hurriedly reached out to "take it" over, but the process of receiving it was similar to robbing. Of course, Jing Chen didn't care much about the old man's reaction, but he just smiled shyly and said, "Old brother, I will take advantage of you this time, and we will find it back next time." As he said that, he turned around and walked away from hesitation.
Seeing that Jing Chen had gone far, the old man in purple robe couldn't help but take out the enchantment ball that Jing Chen gave him and observed it carefully. He saw that the enchantment ball was round all over, far from comparable to an ordinary fifth-level enchantment ball. The old man who had been struggling for decades in this trade fair could tell at a glance that it was something from the inheritance branch. Thinking of this, the old man couldn't help but laugh secretly, the young man must be a young genius from the inheritance branch. He didn't understand the price of this trading market. The level 5 peak enchantment ball he mentioned refers to ordinary goods. If it was from this kind of inheritance branch, it would be equivalent to the level of the fifth-level high-level enchantment ball.
The old man in purple robe never expected that he would meet a rookie who didn't understand the market at all. He remembered that he had taken two garbage to exchange for such a top-quality enchantment ball, and the old man's mouth was about to grin behind his ears.
Not to mention this very happy old man, just talking about Jing Chen, he could get two things with one enchantment ball, especially one of which was used for Rios to resurrect. Jing Chen was in a good mood. The level five peak enchantment ball may be very expensive to others, but for him who has the sky eye, it is not really expensive. If he changes, he will change it. There are still a few enchantment balls in his hands at this moment.
"Teacher, are we going back now?" The purpose has been achieved. This place is not very attractive to Jing Chen. After all, he has a weak foundation and does not have many exchangeable things.
"There is no need to hurry back. Since you are here, just take a walk. Maybe you can meet something." Rios said slowly.
Jing Chen was slightly stunned and nodded immediately. Having such an ancient strong man accompanied him to Taobao was like cheating. Even if Rios didn't know some things, his ability to distinguish good and bad was far beyond those of these people, so Jing Chen did not insist on going back.
Soon, Jing Chen came to the entrance that continued to move upward. There was still a door similar to the magic space, but the guards here were different from the fifth-level peak downstairs. There were two real level six-level beginner-level powerful men standing here. These two men were standing here with kind smiles on their faces, but the powerful energy fluctuations that spread from them still made Jing Chen raise his eyebrows and raise them.
Using level 6 strong men as guards is already the specification of the Enchantment Hall headquarters. Jing Chen really didn't expect that this place could be achieved. It seems that the backstage here is not simple. Moreover, there are obviously more than one entrance to the third floor. Jing Chen took a brief look and found that there are at least ten such entrances around the hall, which means there are at least twenty level 6 strong men here. This strength is a force that cannot be underestimated even if it is placed on the mainland.
When the two saw Jing Chen walking towards this side, they were both stunned. Then they saw the silver-lighted level 5 enchantist badge on Jing Chen's chest, which made a hint of surprise flash in their eyes. For example, level 5 enchantists of Jing Chen's age are rare. Not only that, they were even surprised to find that even they could not see through the strength of the young man in front of them.
"Is this little brother going upstairs?" Among the two, a slightly older man came up first and asked respectfully.
Jing Chen smiled and nodded, saying, "That's it."
At this time, another big man also came up and smiled respectfully, "This little brother looks so tight. Is it the first time I'm here at our Enchanter Fair?"
"What? Is there only regular customers on this third floor that can enter?" Jing Chen raised his eyebrows slightly as he said.
Seeing this, the older man quickly laughed and said, "You are joking. My brother is just asking casually. If you want to go to the third floor, please follow me." As he said that, he winked at the man beside him. The man beside him also understood and stopped talking. Although they were both good at being qualified to enter the third floor, none of them were qualified to enter the third floor were fuel-efficient lamps. They were still a little too short. If they offended these distinguished guests, they would lose their jobs and lose their lives.
The teleportation process this time was a little longer, but it was much smoother than the teleportation just now. Just as Jing Chen climbed to the third floor, he clearly felt five or six senses sweeping over him in a vague way, his eyes slightly condensed. At this moment, Jing Chen also muttered in his heart. It seemed that he was not wrong. The background of the Enchantress Fair was probably not simple.
Chapter completed!
