Emperor of Arcane

Chapter 290 A strange city (2 updates)

"Can we really get high-quality space crystals here?"

Aini Yinye whispered silently, a little tiredness showing in her pure eyes.

The middle-aged housekeeper Paris was a little helpless. Thinking back on the failures along the way, he couldn't help but cheer up:

"There is an old saying in the East - there is no perfect path for man!"

Aini nodded, but she no longer had any hope in her heart.

If there is no other way, who would place their hope on an illusory fate?

The carriage continued to move forward and came to the city gate where people were lined up.

After receiving the summons, Leon walked up and led them to another city gate.

Two burly vigilance golems, with faint red light emitting from their eyes, cooperated with the soldiers to check the goods in the carriage.

The middle-aged housekeeper Paris, who looked a little nervous, followed Leon who was inspecting him and said in a low voice:

"These are all works of art from the elves, as well as some herbs and grains."

Leon opened the door of the carriage and took a brief look. He saw small items woven with vines and felt a little unappreciated.

He declined the gold coins handed over by the middle-aged butler Paris and said with a smile:

"This must be your first time coming to Bay Territory, right?"

Hearing this question again, the middle-aged housekeeper Paris was filled with doubts and helplessness.

It was as if everyone here knew their true identity, which gave him a very bad feeling.

"Have we been exposed?" He thought to himself, "No way, even a legendary professional cannot see through Master Xingge's spell..."

"The soldiers here are so strange..."

"Unlike soldiers in other places, you have to be proficient in everything to eat naka."

The middle-aged butler Paris didn't dare to take too much, for fear that the other party would become greedy. This situation had not never happened before.

He nodded patiently and asked simply:

"Why does everyone know that this is our first time here?"

If he didn't figure it out, he always felt like something was wrong.

If something goes wrong and the other party turns against them, they can escape in time.

Leon closed the door and didn't pay attention to these elf handicrafts. He walked to the carriage full of herbs and opened it to take a look.

There were many dried herbs piled inside. Leon smelled the strong medicinal fragrance and picked up one with great joy:

"What kind of herb is this?"

The middle-aged butler Paris couldn't understand his thoughts and explained truthfully:

"This is a specialty herb from the Elf region, called Seven Night Grass. It is a mid-level magic plant."

"It can be used to replace some rare herbs in high-level sobriety potions and mid-level mana potions."

Leon took out the list of herbal medicines and rummaged through it briefly, with an expression of joy on his face:

"Yes, this is a brand new herbal medicine. It seems that the quality of this batch of herbs is very high. I can bring more next time."

"Actually, our Gulf Territory has a higher demand for fresh herbs, and seeds and fresh herbs can gain additional contribution value."

Contribution?

Seeing that Leon was so talkative, the middle-aged butler Paris didn't understand and asked: "What is the use of contribution points?"

Leon took out a list and handed it over: "The contribution value is very useful, you can exchange it for anything here!"

The middle-aged butler Paris took the list and glanced at it briefly, his heart beating wildly: "Space crystallization?"

Row 1 of the list:

High-end magic equipment, exchange condition is 20,000 gold coins, with 1W contribution value!

High-quality space crystal, exchange condition is 1,000 gold coins, and has 5,000 contribution value!

He followed Leon in a daze, watching him check the food in the carriage.

After the latter confirmed that there was no danger, he released the convoy directly into the city.

He didn't realize what he was doing until the convoy was taken to a public parking area by patrolling soldiers.

Taking three steps and two steps at a time, he rushed to the first carriage and whispered excitedly:

"Miss, you can really get high-quality space crystals here, and the conditions are very simple!"

Aini, who was looking around, took the list in her hand. After seeing the words "High Quality Space Crystal", she clenched her fists excitedly:

"Phew, as long as it's here, we will get it no matter what the price."

The middle-aged housekeeper Paris calmed down, suddenly remembered something, and pointed to the list in Aini's hand:

"The conditions for redemption are all listed above, it doesn't seem to be particularly difficult."

Suppressing her excitement, Aini browsed the list carefully, a look of astonishment gradually appeared on her face, and she murmured to herself:

"Selling 100 tons of grain can get 1 contribution point, and the sales price is 110% of the normal market price."

"Selling 100 primary magic herbs can get 1 contribution point, and the selling price is 110% of the normal market price."

"Sell 100 kilograms of primary magic materials and you can get 1 contribution point..."

"Selling 100 primary spell scrolls can get 1 contribution point..."

"Sell 10 kilograms of intermediate magic materials and you can get 1 point..."

"10 kilograms of intermediate magic herbs for sale..."

"Selling 10 intermediate spell scrolls..."

"sell……"

The joyful expression on her face gradually disappeared. Aini looked at the redemption list with some confusion and asked hesitantly:

"Why is there no way to directly exchange contribution points?"

The middle-aged butler Paris, who calmed down, took the list and read it over:

"These are items sold in exchange for contribution value. The contribution value is only incidental. The 10% increase in price is the means to attract caravans."

"These are the exchange conditions for caravans. There should be other ways to obtain contribution points."

Paris remembered clearly what Leon said just now.

"Fresh magical herbs or seeds that can be transplanted should be able to be exchanged for more contribution points."

Aini frowned, her slightly delicate temperament made people feel pity for her, and she said unwillingly:

"They blocked the space and blocked the transmission. Our batch of goods was transported out with great difficulty..."

Paris looked at the list carefully, noticed some patterns in it, and said in surprise:

"Miss, don't worry, I seem to have found a way."

"Besides, we might be able to obtain other resources..."

Facing Aini's confused look, Paris patiently explained to her:

"You will know if you look at the list carefully..."

"The Gulf Territory obviously needs a lot of food, but they continue to reclaim wasteland. This is a bit strange!"

"But since they want food, then our food can also be sold as high-quality grain!"

"And, I also discovered something."

"This city has a lot of soldiers, but they don't need steel and weapons and armor. Isn't this strange?"

Aini raised her eyebrows in surprise and said expectantly:

"In other words, they can produce their own steel and weapons!"

"That's right! I guess there's more..."
