Chapter 191 Holy Land Mercenaries
The magic core held by the appraiser in his hand is almost the size of a pigeon egg, and the whole body is red and crystal clear. It is a very good fire magic core.
There is absolutely no problem for such a magic core to sell hundreds of thousands of gold coins on the glorious continent. The other party actually offered 50 gold coins. Leon seriously doubted whether there was something wrong with his ear.
"Are you new to the Holy Land? This is the purchase price here. You don't have to sell it. The appraiser obviously saw too many similar expressions. He said coldly, "Decide quickly, don't waste time!"
Shit! Leon is really angry from the bottom of his heart. This is to open a black shop!
"No more for sale!" He took back a bag.
I'd rather rot in my hand than sell gold as rotten iron. I have a space ring.
"It's okay not to sell it. Just now, I identified five items for you. The identification fee is 100 gold coins per piece, a total of 500 gold coins!" The appraiser showed a beating expression of "I knew you would be like this" and sneered, "Please pay!"
Five hundred gold coins, one hundred, that is to say, the purchase price of the magic core is only half of the identification price!
Looking at the confident appraiser in front of him, Leon forcibly held down his anger and asked faintly, "Is that sold to you, and the appraisal fee will not be charged separately?"
"That's right!"
"Well, I'll sell these five pieces to you, and I won't buy the rest. Is it okay?"
Leon picked out a few things that had just been identified and valued one by one and put them in front of the other party: "Give me the money."
The appraiser's expression stagnated. He has worked here for more than ten years. He has seen too many new adventurers who are roaring, angry, excited and even want to do it, but rarely faces such a calm figure.
I don't know why, Leon staring at his dark eyes made the appraiser feel cold. He almost subconsciously nodded: "Okay, please wait a moment."
With more than 200 gold coins in his hand, Leon finally understood why Larson had spent several years in the secret land of the Holy Land and could not earn enough money to go back.
The Adventurer's Store is an official monopoly in the barbarian fortress. With the help of the strong power of the gir, it does not allow others to engage in similar trade at all.
Ordinary adventurers often spend a lot of money here. If they want to make a living, they must also have a source of income. The hard-working trophy can only be sent to the store cheaply.
Of course, if you have enough money, you don't have to sell anything at all, but in addition to the easy-to-carry magic core, the extra cost of other materials to be brought back to Guanghui Continent is probably a lot of money.
Leon is convinced of the ruler of the fortress. He doesn't plan to go to this black shop to be slaughtered in the future. Anyway, he won't stay here for a long time.
Leave the adventurer's store, and Leon went to the mercenary union in the fortress.
The mercenary union of the barbarian fortress is located at the end of the main street of the fortress. It is composed of a five-story ancient Gothic building. The pointed roof and the towering pagoda next to it reflect each other. The golden emblem of the sword and shield hangs on the bluestone wall, and the mottled traces on the surface tell the vicissitudes of time.
It is also the official institution of the fortress. Compared with the deserted adventurer's store, the hall of the mercenary union is much more lively. Hundreds of adventurers either line up in front of different counters or stand next to steal and whisper. The scene is orderly and lively.
Leon glanced around and chose a counter with a smaller number of people to queue up.
The adventurers here are very good at the rules. No one shouts or jumps in line. They hand over tasks or select tasks in front of the counter in an orderly manner. Even if the previous one is delayed for a long time, no one will complain about dissatisfaction later.
Leon noticed that there are more than a dozen office counters here. All of them who are responsible for receiving adventurers are sexy girls in white skirts. They are polite with smiles and polite, which is completely different from the zombie face appraisers in the adventurer's store.
After waiting patiently for almost a sand, Leon stood in front of the office counter after all the adventurers in front of him had finished leaving.
"Hello, my dear Samurai, is there anything I can do for you?" The lustful girl in charge of the reception asked with a smile, and two sweet dimples appeared on her cheeks.
Such an excellent service attitude dissipated Leon's anger in the Adventurer's Store. He thought for a and asked, "I just arrived in the Holy Land yesterday. Is there any task I can take?"
"Your Excellency, if you are coming to our Holy Land Mercenary Union for the first time, please register your identity as a Holy Land mercenary first. The mercenary qualifications of the glorious continent are invalid here."
The girl explained, "So you need to register again."
"Then please help me re-register one!" Leon nodded.
He has the status of a mercenary in the glorious continent, but he doesn't have much qualifications. It's not a big deal to re-register here.
"The handling fee is 300 gold coins." The girl said sweetly, "This is the rule of the union. Please understand."
The registration fee of 300 gold coins is simply dark compared with the mercenary union in the glorious mainland, but with the bottom of the bowl of wine in the adventurer's store in front of him, Leon will no longer be angry, not to mention that the other party's service attitude is excellent.
He took out three magic crystal coins and handed them to the other party. Leon quickly completed the registration and became a junior sanctuary mercenary, and also got a mercenary badge.
This mercenary badge, which cost 300 gold coins, is not just a symbol of identity. The badge is made of special metal. The front is the sword and shield logo of the union, and the north is engraved with a miniature memory array.
It can record the mercenary's achievements, and can also be used to open the storage room provided by the mercenary union to each mercenary - the higher the level, the larger the storage room.
The Holy Land mercenaries are divided into five levels: junior, intermediate, advanced, legendary and legendary. Based on the number of war points as the level, the treatment of different levels of Holy Land mercenaries is different.
Leon is now a junior sanctuary mercenary. As long as he accumulates 100 war points, he can be promoted to an intermediate mercenary. In addition to receiving higher-level tasks, intermediate mercenaries can buy weapons and equipment at a 10% discount in the shops affiliated to the mercenary union.
If the intermediate mercenary sells loot in the Adventurer's store, the price will be one percent higher, and the cost of using the Holy Land Transmission Array will be reduced by one percent. The higher the mercenary can get, the greater the discount.
Of course, the more points you need, and you need to complete many difficult tasks to meet them.
After listening to the explanation of the erotic girl, Leon understood something more or less.
The hierarchy of sanctuary mercenaries is undoubtedly to inspire adventurers entering the sanctuary to work for the kingdom, so the transmission cost of the array is so high, so the adventurer store is so black-hearted.
When he was in the Night Charm Bar, the bartender Larsen did not tell him about the adventurer's store. I'm afraid he either forgot or let him understand the mystery by himself.
The sexy girl also told him that only the sanctuary mercenaries above the intermediate level were eligible to rent the transmission array of the barren fortress or griffins to other Beamon fortresses.
The Kingdom of Beamon has a total of seven strongholds in the first secret place of the Holy Land. The barbarian fortress is the largest and most important base, but the other fortresses have their own characteristics, some of which are the location of the transmission array to the second and third secret land.
Leon asked carefully, and the girl explained in detail.
However, he stood in front of the counter for too long. Although the mercenaries in line behind did not say anything, Leon himself felt a little embarrassed, so he did not ask about the task and took the initiative to leave and give up to the next waiter.
With a bag, Leon walked to the stairs on the other side of the hall, where there is a storage room for mercenaries in the Holy Land, which can be said to be the best place for mercenaries to store items.
The storage room is provided free of charge, but if the mercenary does not apply or hand over the task within a month, the storage room will be taken back by the union, and all the items stored in it will be owned by the union.
Under normal circumstances, this means that the mercenary is dead.
"This brother..."
Before Leon stepped on the stairs, a middle-aged warrior suddenly came next to him.
Rough and dark skin, thin figure, long face and high forehead, and a pair of black wings closed behind him clearly show that he belongs to the upper eagle.
Leon was slightly stunned. He didn't know anyone here except the old lion Gucci and Bar Larson.
"Are you new here?" The eagle warrior smiled and said, "Are you interested in chatting? It's good for you."
Looking at his mysterious appearance, Leon was a little curious: "What's the matter? Have you said it directly?"
The eagle warrior looked around and said in a low voice, "I don't know if you have ever been to the adventurer store, where the acquisition price is very low, which is very unfair to our mercenaries."
"I'm responsible for helping people buy materials. Magic cores, magic crystals, high-grade animal skins, etc. can be collected. If you want to sell it at a good price in the future, you can come to me."
Acquisition materials? There are a lot of materials in Leon's bag, from the collection of Goblin wizards and the search for corpses.
He was going to put these things in the storage room first, so as not to occupy too much space and ring volume. He couldn't help but be moved when he heard the other party's words.
Leon is not short of money, but no one's money is blown by the wind. Of course, it is a good thing to earn more and use less.
But Leon did not forget Larson's warning that it was taboo to trade with others in private in the fortress, and he vaguely felt that the other party did not necessarily have any good intentions.
"Thank you. I'll call you if necessary." Leon nodded and turned around and walked up the stairs.
Watching him go straight up to the second floor, a trace of disappointment flashed in the eyes of the eagle warrior standing by the entrance of the stairs.
