Section 2502 Underground Black Market

While Abule was running towards the Principality of Laxum, Angell had already followed Dox out of the Sandworm Market.

Looking at the vast yellow sand around him, Angell asked suspiciously: "Didn't you just say that Kael was in the Sandworm Market?"

Dox said expressionlessly: "According to the regulations of Mesomia, the wizard market of the entire Principality of Laxum is centered on the market, and the market is within a radius of 100 miles."

Angel: "... So, as long as Kael is within a radius of 100 miles, he can be considered to be in the Sandworm Market?"

"Yes."

Angel: "..."

Seeing that Angell was speechless, Dox suddenly changed the subject: "The above is just the official statement, the real Normally, those who stay at the Sandworm Market will not think that the vast desert will be part of the market. Moreover, there is no need for me to play tricks with you. Kael is indeed in the Sandworm Market, but the Sandworm Market where he is is a black market secretly controlled by the Nomel family, not far from the Sandworm Market. "

When Dox said this, he suddenly stopped: "We are here, this is the entrance to the black market."

In front of Dox, there is a huge stone, and next to the stone is a columnar cactus that is growing well, with a bright red flower on the top.

Angel looked back and saw that this place is indeed not far from the Sandworm Market. It is estimated that the straight-line distance is 200 meters. From here, you can still see the rows of houses in the Sandworm Market in the distance.

"So what you said to me at the beginning about the radius of 100 miles is actually nonsense?" Angel asked.

Dox: "No, no, no, I'm just explaining to you. What I said before, 'Kael is in the sandworm market', is correct whether you understand it in a general or specific way."

Angel: "...but it's still nonsense."

Looking at Angel's expressionless complaints, Dox felt choked. He had a lot of beautiful words in his throat, but he finally suppressed them.

The other party is a formal wizard like him.

The other party is most likely not a wandering wizard.

Be patient and don't argue over trivial matters.

Dox took a deep breath, then turned his head as if nothing had happened, saying, "Those are all irrelevant things. Aren't you looking for Kael? Kael is down there."

Angel glanced at the stone and the cactus, and indeed vaguely felt a trace of energy fluctuations.

Dox: "The way to enter the black market is very simple. Just feed it? You can enter the black market."

Dox pointed to the cactus.

"Feed? What do you mean? Water it?"

"No, no, no. It doesn't drink water, but blood. Any blood will do. As long as it can feed it, it will open the door for you." Dox paused: "Friendly reminder, it prefers the blood of extraordinary creatures. If it is the blood of extraordinary creatures, a few drops are enough. But if it uses the blood of ordinary people, such as ordinary people, then at least he needs to be drained of blood before it will be full."

Angel frowned after listening. Since Dox mentioned that ordinary people's blood can be used to feed cacti, according to the personality of most wizards, it is estimated that this method is used. In other words, the reason why this cactus blooms so brightly is actually because it is made of piles of bones under its body.

Originally, Angel didn't feel anything about this well-growing cactus before, but now, he felt disgusted.

When Angel expressed his disgust for the cactus, Dox stared at Angel quietly. Angel was stared at for a long time, and he looked at Dox in confusion, asking with his eyes: Why are you looking at me?

They stared at each other for about ten seconds, and Dox said: "I told you how to enter the black market, go in."

"Didn't you say to feed it?"

Dox said unhappily: "I am only responsible for leading the way for you. You are the one who really wants to find Kael, why should I feed it?"

Angel understood now, it turned out that Dox was waiting motionlessly just now, waiting for him to bleed.

But then again, what Dox said made sense, after all, Dox was just leading the way. But if Angel was asked to feed this cactus, although he had extraordinary blood, it was basically precious alchemical materials, and it would be a waste to use it here.

Angel thought for a while: "Wait for me."

After speaking, Angel turned around and walked back to the sandworm market.

Dox quietly watched Angel's back as he left, thinking silently in his heart that it was estimated that another ordinary person in the sandworm market would be unlucky.

As Dox sighed softly, Angell returned from the sandworm market at a very fast speed.

Under Dox's puzzled eyes, Angell threw out a sandworm larva about ten centimeters long: "Can it feed this cactus?"

"Did you go to buy sandworms?" Dox asked in surprise.

"If you don't buy, do you want to rob it?" Angell said unhappily. After that, he couldn't help but muttered in a low voice: "I spent another 3 magic crystals, and these still have to be counted on Kael. If Kael doesn't reimburse me, I will go to Lord Isos."

Listening to Angell's muttering, Dox felt speechless in his heart.

Dox looked at Angell deeply, then nodded: "Enough, although this orange-peeled sandworm is a larva, it is also an extraordinary creature. Only about ten drops of blood are needed to feed it."

Without saying a word, Angell cut a small hole at the tail of the larva and dripped blood on the cactus.

Doakes's judgment was extremely accurate. At the tenth drop, the cactus suddenly shook, and the flowers on the top of the crown became more colorful. Immediately afterwards, Angel felt that the energy around him began to become active. It was probably that the cactus had touched some kind of mechanism and moved a secret node.

As the energy nodes changed, the big stone in front of them slowly moved away, revealing a downward passage.

"Let's go, Kael is in the black market."

Doakes walked to the front again and led the way, while Angel followed slowly. He was thinking about one thing... How to deal with this sandworm?

The value of sandworm larvae is not high. They are usually bought as food for adult worms. He has no adult worms now, and this sandworm is a little wilted after bleeding. It is estimated that if you feed the adult worms, the adults will find the meat too little.

Angel thought for a while, then turned to look at Dangros, who was looking around over his shoulder.

"Ahem, you have been following me for so long, and I haven't officially given you a gift. I will give you this sandworm." Angel directly threw the sandworm larvae to Dangros.

Dangros couldn't help but roll his eyes at Angel. He was not stupid. Just looking at Angel's troubled expression when holding the sandworm, he knew that he was thinking about how to deal with the sandworm. Now I just throw it to myself and call it a gift. Who would believe it?

Dangoros thought so, but he grabbed the sandworm and wrapped it around his fingertips.

Angel was relieved when he saw that Dangelos did not refute. Since Dangelos accepted his gift, he would not have any psychological burden when using its fire when refining the weapon. This is the deal. !

Angel thought happily. At this time, the stairs had reached the end.

There is no door at the end, and you can see the situation in the black market at a glance.

The black market is actually similar to the previous underground market, but it is much smaller than expected. There is only one street, and this street is winding, causing the shops on both sides to be scattered at random, without any sense of beauty. Ordinary people have been looking at it for a long time. All will be dizzy.

There are not many people in the black market, and some of the narrow streets are so crowded that people rub shoulders with each other.

However, this does not affect Angel's progress.

Because almost most people on the road automatically got out of the way after seeing Doakes. Obviously, they knew Doakes's identity.

"Red Sword" Doakes is a first-level wizard. Even if he is a wandering wizard, he is still an official wizard. In a place full of apprentices, Doakes' presence is at the level of a great devil.

The journey went very smoothly, and Angel even took the time to observe the black market.

His attention was not on the shops on both sides, but on the overall structure of the black market, especially the top.

He thought it was just a cave before, because there was very little flat land, it was crooked everywhere, and there were a lot of sedimentary rocks on the ground.

But when he looked at the top, he found that the pitted top occasionally had obvious traces of artificial lines on some corners.

Those lines are magic lines. But it was obviously from a long time ago and has been broken and ineffective. However, judging from the number and distribution of the lines on the entire top, if it is a complete magic line, it must be a huge magic energy array.

Many, many years ago, perhaps thousands of years ago, or even earlier, this place might not have been simply a cave.

While Angel was looking at the black market structure, Doakes said: "We are here."

Angel then withdrew his gaze and looked around.

At this time, there was no one else around. The nearest store was a hundred meters away, and it was completely invisible due to the slope.

And here is a deep pit going downwards. The pit was full of gravel and traces of digging.

"It is said that hundreds of years ago, this place was a demon blood mine, which is why it was dug like this. But now, there is no mine anymore, so it is abandoned."

Angel had no interest in the abandoned mine and asked directly: "Where is Kael?"

Doakes pointed to the side of the pit: "There."

Angel walked to the place where Doakes pointed. From the naked eye, there was nothing here, but from the perspective of mental power, Angel could clearly feel some hidden energy fluctuations around him.

Moreover, this kind of fluctuation is not unfamiliar to him, it is a spatial node.

"Have you sensed it? There are hidden space nodes here, which were set up by Kael. Among these space nodes, only one can be connected to Kael. All other space nodes are pits. As long as they are touched, they will Pulled into the space rift."

Doakes shrugged: "As for which space node is the correct one, I don't know. So I can only take you here. I can accompany you here to wait for Kael to come out. He will come out at least once a week. According to past circumstances, he will be the day after tomorrow at the latest..."

Before Doakes could finish speaking, he saw Angel touching a space node.

Doakes was startled and quickly wanted to rush over to stop him. Of course, Doakes was not worried about Angel, but because once the space crack formed, he would also suffer.

Although the space cracks arranged by Kael are not too dangerous to official wizards. But if you enter the unknown void and still can't find the sign, you will have to bleed a lot if you want to return to the wizarding world.

However, Doakes still failed to stop him. Because Angel was faster than him, he directly touched the space node.

Upon seeing this, Doakes began to retreat frantically, hoping that the violent space cracks would not affect him.

But after retreating dozens of meters, he found that there was no space crack in the distance.

And Angel was sitting on a stone leisurely.

He hesitated for a moment and walked over.

"Did you touch the space node just now?"

"Yes." Angel nodded in acknowledgement.

"But why..." There is no space crack?

Dox did not say what he had not finished, because there was only one answer: the wizard named Lyon opposite found the correct space node!

"Are you a space wizard like Lord Aesop?" Dox hesitated and asked.

Angel: "No, I just have some research on the space system."

Angel just received a complete set of space knowledge from the Dalmatian. In terms of theoretical knowledge, it is comparable to many space wizards. However, from a practical point of view, it is basically zero.

This time, the space node is not a practice. With Angel's high-level space knowledge, it is not too easy to find a unique space node.

Looking at Angel's calm face, Dox silently guessed his true identity.

The other party should not have lied about whether he was a space wizard.

A wizard who is not a space wizard but has such in-depth research on the space system must have spent a lot of time. The other party looks young, but he must be hundreds of years old.

Otherwise, how can he have time to do cross-system research.

He is still a formal wizard like him for hundreds of years, and has not entered the level of true knowledge. It seems that his talent is not very high.

Thinking of this, Dox instantly became confident. He is just eighty years old this year. Even if he is a wandering wizard, he is still at the same level as the other party.

He is confident that if he is given a hundred years, he will find his way and advance to true knowledge.

With this comparison, Dox's confidence and sense of superiority began to rise steadily.

Even if Leon knows more than him, so what?

He, Red Sword Dox, is still inflated!

Angel looked at Dox strangely, always feeling that the other party seemed to have changed in a short period of time, but when he looked carefully, he didn't find anything different.

Angel shook his head secretly in his heart: Forget it, it has nothing to do with me anyway.

Although they touched the correct space node, Kael did not appear immediately. It was estimated that he was doing some research or was busy.

Until half an hour later, a figure with a big hair, a face covered with black ash, and tattered clothes appeared in front of them.
