Starting From Zero

Volume 16 Chapter 126 Still Looking?

Chapter 126: Still looking?

"Gun God?" I shouted this name in my heart, and it took a lot of willpower to control myself from shouting this name out. Venus was talking to the Gunslinger with her back to the door at this time. It seemed quite secretive, but since it could be discussed in a place like this, it shouldn't be too important information.

After thinking about it, I didn’t follow him, but released Rebecca. The phantom is simply a born spy. Unlike the disguise technique of Amynis, the phantom's transformed image is not achieved through illusion. Although their name is Phantom Demon, their transformed image is achieved by changing their own form, so even reconnaissance techniques will not find that their transformation effect is fake.

Rebecca entered the store this time as a very ordinary French player. The Gunslinger just glanced at her one more time and stopped paying attention to her. Rebecca also didn't look at her at all because of the eyes of the Phantom Demon. It's just a decoration. Theoretically, the phantom is an energy body, and the light wave itself is also a kind of energy, so when the light shines on the phantom's body, the phantom will sense it, which is a bit like our tactile sensation. In other words, phantoms actually use touch to perform the task of "seeing", and their sight range is in all directions, with no visual blind spots at all. Rebecca walked to the NPC shop naturally, bought some things and then turned around and walked out. Of course, this process is thanks to the pet system of "Zero". Although players love and hate the magic pets in "Zero", I have to say that the pet system in "Zero" is still very powerful... at least for those who have magic pets. One of the more practical functions is the function of purchasing the magic pet on behalf of the owner. Generally speaking, the order for players to level up is to first buy medicines, then go out to fight monsters, wait until the medicines are used up, then return to the city to buy medicines to repair equipment, and then go out to fight monsters. However, teleportation scrolls are very expensive, and the map of "Zero" is very large, and running back and forth takes up a lot of time, so it is a good compromise to let some fast and intelligent magic pets return to the city instead of their masters. Of course, the prerequisite for this method is that you must have at least one familiar with basic intelligence, and this guy must have the ability to carry items. You always have to let your familiar and the store owner figure out what you want to buy, right? So basic intelligence is a must. As for the ability to carry items... the store in "Zero" does not have door-to-door delivery service.

In any case, my Rebecca definitely meets the conditions for shopping on behalf of the boss, so she can buy things from the boss normally. After Rebecca finished shopping, she didn't stay long, but turned around and walked out. As soon as she left the sight of the store, she immediately ducked into the alley and handed me the bottle of red blood she just bought. Then she immediately transformed into another person and walked into the store again, pretending to choose things and looking at the shelves. After a while, I randomly picked something, paid and left. In this way, Rebecca relied on her ability to infinitely transform to constantly switch people to enter the store to buy things and listen in on the conversation between Venus and Gunslinger, but the two people never noticed anything wrong.

Although the coming and going caused interruptions in the monitoring process, Rebecca still analyzed something useful from the few words. The first is to confirm that the God of Guns seems to have something in his hands that Venus urgently needs. The second is that we know that the relationship between Venus and the God of Guns is actually quite complicated. What Venus needs urgently now, I can naturally think of the necessary materials for the magic circle to summon the high-level god of servants. As for the relationship between the two of them... The Gunslinger seems to have a problem with Venus. Although it is not clear why the Gunslinger hates Venus, the most beautiful woman in Europe, but since they have a feud, they are more likely to have trouble.

Venus left the store after talking to the Gunslinger in the store, and the Gunslinger walked straight towards the alley where I was hiding after she left.

"How did you find me?" After the gunman walked into the alley, he saw me leaning on the wall next to me, chewing the leaves of the dragon grass leisurely and talking to him. Anyway, he has been discovered, and running away would make him look petty, and I'm not really afraid of him.

The Gunslinger didn't make much of a reaction. Instead, he casually leaned against the wall opposite me. He even snatched a leaf from my hand and started chewing it. "Have you Chinese always studied eating?"

"Why do you ask?"

"In real life, your Chinese cuisine seems to have the most varieties and the best taste, and it's the same in the game. Even the divine dragon grass used as snacks is only produced in a small forest controlled by your guild. You said you are Don’t you know a lot about eating?”

"Actually, we just have more people. It's not good for everyone to study one thing too much, so we spread out in all directions to study everything. It's natural to eat many kinds of food. But..." I changed the topic and started to ask: "I What I want to study more now is what Venus wants from you."

The Gunslinger suddenly stood up and snatched a large bag of dragon grass from my hand. "This is considered a consulting fee. Also, before that, I would like to know why you are suddenly interested in conglomerate?"

"Conglomerate?"

"You don't know what Venus wants to buy?" The gunman obviously got my target wrong. "So you are not following me, but Venus?" He held his chin and said while thinking: "That means that something that Venus is preparing now is a threat to you, and Are you investigating the components of this thing? Haha! I didn’t expect that the majestic president of the Frost Rose Alliance would actually be reduced to the status of a tail beauty?"

"Even if she is a monster, I have to follow her! But it doesn't seem that simple between you two?"

"That's between me and her, it has nothing to do with you." The gunman seemed to be very interested in this topic, and his expression told me that this place is a restricted area, so don't mention it if you don't want him to get angry.

"I don't care about other people's gossip. I just want to know how much conglomerate she wants?"

"What's the benefit of telling you about me?"

"Two packs of dragon grass."

"That's a beautiful thought." The Gunslinger extended a palm very directly. "At least five packs."

"Okay." Although the price of dragon grass is ridiculously expensive, I don't care about the money.

After getting the dragon grass, the gun god immediately said: "Fifty grams. This is the amount she asked for, but I didn't agree to her, and I really don't have that much in my hand."

I nodded. "Then I still have something to do, so I'll take the first step."

"If anything happens, just keep following me!" the gun god's voice came from behind, but I ignored him. Anyway, with his delicate relationship with Venus, he probably wouldn't report on me.

After we spoke a few words, Venus had already walked far away. Fortunately, I sent a ghost beetle to follow her in advance, so I wasn't worried about her running away. In fact, even if I don't send bugs to follow me, I still know the next place she is going to - Soth Auction House. Rather than calling it an auction house, this place is actually more suitable to be called a special items purchase and sale center. Generally, many players will get some strange materials in the game, and you will always find that these things are specifically needed by a certain guild or a certain person, but because you don't know exactly what you got, What does it do, so it can only be listed on this exchange, and people who need it will find what they need. The thing Venus just asked from the Gunslinger is called conglomerate. This is a rare ore in "Zero". Its main function is to grind some relatively hard things. Of course, Venus buys this thing. It may not be used for this, but conglomerate is considered a rare ore anyway. Although it is clearly produced, there are very few of them on the market, probably only in places like Soth Auction House. I hope to see some.

Since Soth Auction House is a special store, it has protection settings for its customers. There is a dedicated teleportation array inside the auction house. As long as you buy anything there, you can use the teleportation array to teleport to any of several teleportation arrays in the city, and this is completely free. Of course, if you don't buy something, don't expect to use it. It's not impossible that Venus can use her wealth to buy some bargains and use the teleportation array to escape. In order to be on the safe side, I sent four giant dragons to transform into human forms and go to the four teleportation arrays in the city to wait. Even if Venus teleports there, at least I will know where she is. Xiao Longnu was responsible for guarding the door of the auction house, while I entered the interior of the auction house.

The interior of this auction house uses a hyperspace structure, so the interior is much larger than it appears from the outside. The building is divided into eleven floors in total, six above ground and five underground. The ground floor is the reception area. There is no trading activity here, and then it depends on whether you are selling or buying things. Those selling things all go down, and those buying things go directly upstairs. When I came in, I happened to see Venus walking towards the second floor, so I quickly followed her.

The second floor of Soth Auction House is the general items auction area. The transaction volume here is relatively large, but if you want good things, don't expect it. Venus didn't stop at all and went all the way to the third floor. The third floor is the bulk goods area, which is usually a group buying place for guilds or large groups. Things bought here are bought in tons and in batches. Don't consider one or two items. Four floors up is the special items area. The items sold here are all items that cannot be identified or have special uses. Anyway, they have everything, it just depends on your luck. The top five floors are the boutique area. The starting price of the items there is 100,000 crystal coins. Except for the super rich, you can just stand aside. Venus didn't stop on the third floor and moved up to the fourth floor. Fortunately, she didn't continue to climb up, because starting from the fifth floor, there were all single rooms, and it would be difficult to follow them there.

After Venus went up to the fourth floor, she asked the waiter for a magic catalog. This thing recorded information about all the auction items. She probably planned to find conglomerates here. I wanted to find a place to hide first, but suddenly I accidentally saw something placed on a display stand not far away, and my eyes were instantly attracted. "How can this be?"
