Chapter 3177 Black Robe Man

Although this place is also called a stall, it is not the same as the commonly understood "stall".

The most common one is the mirror. There are mirrors standing everywhere. The mirrors are the "doors" that lead to the stalls behind them. The mirrors will show part of the internal scene or the appearance of the main products to attract customers.

In addition to the mirror groups standing upright, some people directly hold a sign and stand beside it, with a large box behind them. The sign records their goods, and you can talk in detail if you need it.

Of course, there are also stalls that spread out the goods and put them on the ground. But generally speaking, there are very few.

The main reason is that there is no security.

This kind of real stall either has low-value goods and dares to be spread on the ground at will, and it doesn't matter if it is lost; or the merchants are strong and are not afraid of anyone approaching.

In addition to the stalls mentioned above, there are also "crystal shell" stalls specially provided by the Crystal Eye Clan.

Rent crystal shells, and then unfold them to form crystal stone huts.

Use crystal stone huts as temporary shops.

This kind of crystal shell stall that needs to be rented, of course, has more than just the function of setting up stalls. It also has its own safety shield, which can protect the merchants and goods in the crystal shell to the greatest extent.

In addition, there will be colorful lights around the crystal shell stall.

These colorful lights, apart from being beautiful and eye-catching from a distance, do not seem to have any other functions. However, when passers-by get close, the colorful lights will condense into various strange illusions.

For example, right in front of Angel, there is a dome-shaped pure white crystal house.

As soon as Angel and Laplace approached the crystal house, they saw that the surrounding light yellow condensed into an illusion of a rock creature. This black rock creature was shouting to passers-by: "Gemstone gems, colored gems, starlight gems, mirror world gems! Cheap and not expensive, buy gems and get gems for free!"

Whenever someone approached, he would repeat the shouting.

The details, movements, and sounds were completely unchanged.

There is no doubt that this is a set illusion, and the function is... advertising.

Using illusions to advertise and attract customers may not sound like a big deal, but the Crystal Eye Clan can come up with such an idea and realize universal operation, allowing anyone who rents a crystal shell to use it, which is amazing.

"This is the Rongshi Clan, but the creatures in the mirror prefer to call them destroyers." Perhaps seeing Angel staring at the rock creatures, Laplace explained the other party's race.

Angel was not originally curious about the origin of the rock creatures. The reason why he kept staring at them was purely attracted by the "illusion advertisement".

However, when Laplace mentioned that the other party was called a "destroyer", Angel couldn't help but ask curiously: "Why is it called a destroyer?"

"The gems sold by the Rongshi Clan are actually found by digging the mirror space through their inductive talent, and their digging will cause irreversible damage to the mirror space. Often the mirror space they have dug will soon turn into mirror light and dissipate, so they are also called destroyers."

The so-called destruction refers to the destruction of the mirror space.

"However, they basically destroyed empty mirror spaces, and there are too many mirrors that are created and destroyed every day in the mirror domain, so their behavior is not excessive."

It's just that the name is a bit unpleasant, but in fact, the reputation of the Rongshi clan is much better than that of the Piruxiu and Changhuo clans.

Laplace: "But it is rumored that the Rongshi clan and the Ersi clan don't get along well."

The Rongshi clan destroys the mirror space, while the Ersi clan's talent is to consolidate and repair the mirror space. From the perspective of talent and specialties, it is indeed somewhat contradictory.

But whether there is real hatred, this is unknown.

"Do you want to take a look?" Laplace pointed to the gem hut opened by the Rongshi clan and asked.

Angel thought about it and nodded.

Gemstones are very versatile special materials in the South Domain. Basically, they can be used in various fields, including alchemy. There are many gemstones in Angel's bracelet.

He also wanted to see what the gems produced in the mirror domain are different from those in the outside world.

So, Angel and Laplace walked into the gem hut.

However, they came out silently after only three minutes.

It's not that these gems are bad, but most of them are just ordinary gems, which are used in arranging rituals or some simple potions, while the energy inside the gems containing extraordinary power is all aggregation energy, which Angel can't use.

So, after a rough glance, Angel decided to leave.

After leaving the gem house, Angel continued to wander around while chatting with Laplace.

In the process, Angel saw a lot of interesting things. Although most of them were driven by aggregation energy, even so, there were some that made Angel very excited.

For example, Angel saw a mirror space full of plants.

Walking in was like coming to a small rain forest.

These plants do not need soil, but only need to absorb a small amount of aggregation energy to grow rapidly. From ordinary flower seeds, tree seeds, to magic plant seeds, they are all sold in this "rainforest shop".

What Angel was excited about was not those magic plant seeds, but ordinary plants... His idea was to use these plants to embellish the heart space.

There is no soil in the heart space, and the only beast blood tree is grown in special cultivation soil.

The cultivation soil cannot cover the entire heart space and can only be used in a small area, so other plants cannot be planted. However, this kind of plant that only absorbs polymer energy and can grow without using soil is very suitable for the heart space.

However, my heart is still in my heart, but not to the point where I have to buy it.

The most important thing is that Angel doesn’t have crystals on his body either...

Angel just wrote down the location of this rainforest shop. If there are extra crystals later, he can buy some seeds.

In addition to this small rainforest store, Angel also remembered a few stores that he was interested in, but there was no need to buy them at the moment.

…

When they walked out of another mirror, Laplace's eyes suddenly looked not far away.

Angel followed Laplace's line of sight, and through the crowded streets, he saw a familiar figure opposite... Luigi.

Luigi was standing in front of a stall at this time, talking to a man in black robes opposite.

Although he couldn't hear what Luigi was saying, Angel remembered that Luigi had gone to a shop alone that was said to sell music scores. Could it be that this man in black robes sold music scores?

Anyway, there was a lot of shopping around. Angel thought for a while and walked in the direction of Luigi.

Before Angel and Laplace could approach, Luigi sensed it first and turned to look over.

"Hey, why are you here..." Luigi suddenly paused mid-sentence and looked at Angel suspiciously: "You...could you be here to borrow money from me?"

"I...I can lend you ten crystals at most, and I won't have any more." Luigi originally wanted to say, 'No money,' but when he saw Laplace's cold gaze, he changed his mind. mouth.

Angel had never thought of borrowing money at first, but seeing Luigi's stingy look, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Ten crystals will do, it's better than not having one crystal at all."

Seeing that Angel really wanted to borrow money, Luigi frowned, but took out a small bag and handed it to Angel.

The small bag is quite bulging, and there should be more than ten crystals rattling inside.

"I'll give you a hundred crystals first..." Luigi muttered in a low voice, "No more, I really have no more."

Angel took the bag, but he didn't intend to actually use it. He just wanted to see Luigi deflated. But Angel also knew that Luigi was not really stingy, it was just that he was not sure about the price of the music score this time, so he seemed a little picky.

After Angel took the bag, he wanted to ask Luigi about buying music scores for Guitar, but before he could speak, a deep voice suddenly came from next to him.

"Are you a human? If you lack condensed crystals, the things I sell here can also accept magic crystals."

The person speaking was the man in black robe.

Luigi was talking to the man in black robes before Angel arrived.

His whole body was covered by a black robe, and he couldn't see his face or feel his breath. He didn't know which race he was from. This kind of dress is also very common at parties, and not everyone likes to be exposed.

As for the stall of the man in black robe...it is a very rare real street stall.

An unknown piece of velvet was spread on the ground, with some strange knick-knacks placed on it. After a quick glance, they were basically ordinary items. The only characteristic was that they were all physical objects with the aura of the material world.

In other words, these are by no means specialties of the Mirror Realm.

The Ancient Tooth Fairy sells more of these physical objects. Moreover, most of the physical objects sold by the Ancient Tooth Fairy have extraordinary properties, but among the mortal objects sold by this black-robed man is a dusty harp... Perhaps this is what attracted Luigi to come.

In addition to harps, there are also some more mundane items for sale, including rainstones and cobblestones.

Even if this kind of stone is a real thing, it is still difficult for the creature in the mirror to take notice of it.

Perhaps it is because the things sold are so common that they dare to set up street stalls in such a big way.

Angel looked at the man in black robe: "If I were really a human, do you think I would spend magic crystals to buy these things?"

In the Southern Territory, buying these things with gold coins would be a huge loss, let alone using magic crystals.

The man in black robe took a deep look at Angel: "Since I mentioned the magic crystal, there are naturally items that match the price of the magic crystal, but they are not displayed."

Angel: "For example?"

The man in black robe pointed to a gold-rimmed mirror not far away: "If you want to see something specific, we can go in and discuss it in detail."

Angel took a look at the mirror and found a very familiar symbol carved on it.

"Pippi Castle?"

Angel had seen this sign before when he went to the inner city of Pipi Castle. This means that the owner of this mirror should be a Pilusi.

Man in black robe: "Yes, it's Pilu Xiu's shop. However, I cooperated with Pi Lu Xiu's boss and rented a small area to display the goods. Do you want to go in and take a look?"

Angel did not answer immediately, but asked doubtfully: "Since you have rented the goods area, why do you still set up a stall outside?"

Upon hearing this question, the man in black robe fell silent.

Luigi on the side said: "I know this, I asked just now. The reputation of that Piluxiu store is very bad. In the first half of the day, people went in, but they all came out cursing. In the second half of the day, now, there are already two No one came in during the hour..."

In other words, even if the man in black robe rents a part of the area to store goods, he can't sell it if no one comes in.

Therefore, he could only set up a street stall outside to represent himself and attract traffic.

At this point, Luigi turned to look at the black-robed man: "Don't you know the reputation of Piruxiu?"

The black-robed man smiled bitterly: "What if I know... I don't have enough condensed crystals, otherwise I wouldn't be greedy and rent a corner of Piruxiu's shop."

Luigi spread his hands and didn't continue talking; while Angel raised his eyebrows. He confirmed from his emotional perception that the so-called bitter smile of the black-robed man just now was completely acting.

Of course, this does not confirm that he lied, but the probability of lying is very high.

"Do you want to go and see?" The black-robed man continued to look at Angel.

Angel could feel that the black-robed man's emotions were urgent, as if he was very anxious to do business with him?

Why is this?

Angel didn't say anything, but Luigi on the side said: "I have to go and see it anyway. He just said that he has a very good church music score. I have to appreciate it."

Angel smiled: "Then let's go and see it together."

Angel didn't know what the black-robed man was up to, but with Laplace next to him, what was he afraid of?

Hearing Angel's answer, the black-robed man secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He waved his hand lightly, and the stall was directly closed, and all the things were put under his black robe.

Then, the black-robed man stretched out his hand and gestured: "Everyone, please."

...

Angel was the last one to enter the mirror. As soon as he came in, he heard a curse: "Run quickly, you must not stop until I tell you to stop, otherwise I will throw you into the pot and cook you!"

"Squeak--" A terrified cry, accompanied by the sound of running.

Angel looked up and saw that this mirror space was full of machinery and gears. A short green-skinned Lu Xiu was standing on the glass cabinet, holding a small whip, pointing at a hamster in a drum and cursing loudly.

The fat hamster was scared and ran quickly in the drum. As it ran, the mechanical gears connected to the drum began to turn slowly.

There were at least dozens of linkage chains on the entire wall, and there were hundreds of gears. This hamster could be said to be truly "carrying a heavy load forward."

While Angel was observing the hamster, Piruxiu also saw the visitor in the store. He immediately put on a lewd smile and wanted to welcome the visitor, but when he saw Angel and others followed the black-robed man in, Piruxiu's expression immediately collapsed.

"Your guest?" Piruxiu asked with a frown on his bald brow.

The black-robed man nodded.

Piruxiu rolled his eyes, turned his head and continued to threaten the poor hamster with a whip.

The black-robed man turned to look at Angel: "Don't worry about him, please come over here."

The black-robed man pointed to a small compartment covered by a curtain next to him.

"My treasures are all in there."
