The Witcher: Elemental Lords
#400 - black market
Within a hundred kilometers of Wassonburg, the area is mostly plains, encompassing seven or eight cities. Further out, the landscape surrounding the cities becomes slightly more complex, featuring mountains, rivers, fissures, swamps, and wastelands.
Dolly's doppelganger transformed into a wisp of black smoke, barely keeping up with Alan's speed as they flew through the sky.
While flying, Alan explained the background of this black market to Dolly. "This black market is said to feature some unique alchemical creations, as well as special potions, formulas, and even alchemical notes from predecessors. They were supposedly brought out from a ruin. I plan to visit the ruin a few days after the black market. Will you come?"
Dolly was somewhat puzzled, "A wizarding school?"
Alan telepathically replied, "It's unclear. In any case, it's full of traps and many wild wizards have perished there. It hasn't been fully explored yet. The Glorious Wizard Alliance originally planned to organize people to go, but it eventually fell through."
Dolly hummed in acknowledgement. He understood that the Glorious Wizard Alliance was a large and established organization with countless inheritances, so they didn't care much about these ordinary legacies, leaving them to the wild wizards was no big deal.
Moreover, within the Glorious Empire, wild wizards weren't entirely useless. At least they made significant contributions to protecting the ordinary towns and villages under their jurisdiction. The Wizard Alliance was happy to delegate this task, creating a perfect balance between wild wizards and those within the system.
Of course, some wild wizards would turn into black wizards, and these were the targets of the Empire's crackdown.
Dolly didn't ask Alan where he was, and followed his aura, speeding through the sky.
About an hour later, a wide river appeared ahead, over six hundred meters wide, with a very slow current. The area around the river was all wilderness, without a single person in sight.
In the unknown wilderness, one could feel the abundant flow of Qi everywhere.
As Dolly's Profound Corpse Insect clone, the clone was much better at sensing Qi than the main body.
At this time, a small island stood tall on the wide river surface. The island was not small, and the forest was lush. The Insect clone could sense a lot of Qi activity on it, indicating that many people had already arrived early.
At the same time, Dolly also sensed the presence of a lot of Qi in the river nearby. Some Qi was as fiery as the sun, some Qi was as cold as a prison, and some Qi was gentle, representing the different attributes of the Qi owners. These Qi were all very powerful, and obviously not native to this river.
There were people on the island, and there were also people in the river. This black market was quite interesting.
Dolly saw that Alan was also looking in other directions, obviously having noticed this situation as well.
The two of them did not stop because of this. They landed on the edge of the island, quickly revealed their figures, and walked towards the center of the island.
After the two appeared, many mental forces swept over them, but quickly disappeared.
Alan was powerful, and about to advance to Level 7. His mental power was as vast as the ocean. Although he had come with a restrained aura, he still gave people a sense of unfathomable depth. Those people tested him and felt that he was a big shot, so they quickly retreated.
However, there were still quite a few mental forces lingering on Dolly, but as Dolly slowly released his aura, those people gradually retreated as well.
Various chaotic mental forces and chaotic thoughts were flying around this island. The mental forces were mixed and the thoughts were numerous. This was the feeling that these people gave Dolly.
Of course, there were also one or two places with very pure mental forces, but those were already extremely powerful figures, and not representative. Maybe they were like Alan, on the path of the regular army, a big shot from the Glorious Wizard Alliance, or an elder from some noble family.
Chaos, this was the feeling that the black market brought to Dolly.
Just then, a person walked out from the island, looked at the two, that person's expression was kind and full of sunshine, but his mental power was vast and his strength was very strong, obviously the organizer of this event.
He seemed to know Alan. As soon as they met, he stepped forward to greet him.
"Did something you need appear? It's an honor to have you here."
Alan rolled his eyes at him and said, "Besides being here to hold the fort for you, it's also for that thing. Are you sure that thing will appear this time?"
The man chuckled, revealing a mysterious smile, "Don't worry, I've already inquired for you in advance, it will definitely be there."
Dolly then understood that Alan was here as the organizer. He blinked his eyes and said nothing.
At this time, the man turned his head and looked over, "Is this your disciple?"
Alan shook his head. He looked at Dolly and smiled faintly, "This is the lifesaver I mentioned to you."
The man was immediately shocked, turned his head, and looked at Dolly carefully. The more he looked, the more surprised he became.
This kid didn't come with his main body, but with a clone, but this clone seemed to be very extraordinary.
"So it's Wizard Dolly, there are also some good things for you this time." He turned his head and looked at Alan, thinking, Alan heard that there were good things and called him here too.
In the previous explorations of the ruins, a large part of the items were related to the profession of pharmacist, and there were also some strange potions among them. If this person has enough money, he can take them down.
If that doesn't work, exchanging them for finished potions is also fine.
For wild wizards, potions are scarce, equipment is scarce, materials are scarce, all kinds of shortages, in black market transactions, most of them are bartering, and few people exchange magic crystals and gold coins.
Moreover, many of the items traded on the black market are prohibited by the Empire, and exchanging them for magic crystals and gold coins is not cost-effective, because prohibited items cannot be bought.
The three walked towards the center of the island.
A large open space has already been cleared in the center of the island, and many people have already come here.
Like the black market Dolly had been to before, people who come here and have a need to sell goods will have their own stalls, placed on the ground, with the goods displayed and the items to be traded written next to them, and only those who want to buy will wander around inside.
All the people here are wizards, and occasionally you can see a few warriors with huge Qi, who seem to be very confident in coming here.
As long as it is a person, they will disguise themselves, and they cannot see their true faces.
Just as he was about to walk to the front of the stalls, Dolly heard some disputes, which were coming from the stalls. It could be seen that it was very lively here.
At this time, the sun had already set, and the sky was slowly darkening, bringing a hint of mystery and heaviness to the chaotic black market.
Walking to the entrance of the black market, Alan said to Dolly, "You go take a look first, I'll go trade other things with Old Hei."
Dolly nodded, glanced at Old Hei, and walked towards the black market.
The level of this black market is very high-end. The wizards inside are all Level 4 and Level 5, and occasionally you can see a few guys whose strength cannot be distinguished. I don't know what level they are, and at a glance, the things on these stalls are also very interesting, messy, and disorganized. I don't know what the stall owners do.
