Chapter 38: Leopard Witch

After taking the old witch into the Dark Temple, although I got a warning in advance, the quality level of the old witch is really not flattering. Even if I told her not to look around, she still behaved like Grandma Liu. It was like entering the Grand View Garden, looking here and touching there. The most embarrassing thing was that she saw the magic fountain in the center of the hall, and she actually ran over to get some water to drink. As a result, she attracted surprised looks from around her, which made me hate her. My teeth were itching but I didn't dare to pull them out, otherwise it would be even more embarrassing if someone found out that I was with her.

Not bad, I was in that awkward moment when I suddenly saw a few acquaintances. These are all high-level demons from the Dark Temple. I have met them a few times before. Although I am not very familiar with them, I can at least recognize them. The other party also discovered my presence immediately, but I reacted faster than them. Chapter 38: The Leopard Witch rushed up to say hello to them, and then pointed to the ground behind them. The old witch looked at herself in the mirror and said, "Did that witch see that?"

"I saw it."

"Please help me take her to the back to find a reception room and arrange it first. I have to go see Ditans and it's not convenient to take her with me."

"It doesn't matter, just leave this to us." Several demons are senior personnel around Ditans, and they know my identity relatively well, so as soon as I said this, they immediately nodded in agreement. It's not a big deal anyway. event.

Finally getting rid of the old witch, I quickly ran through the hall toward the back alone. I stopped a dark priest halfway and asked about the location of Ditans, and then I went directly to find him. The two guards guarding the door also knew me. They saw me coming from a distance and opened the door for me without even asking. I nodded and walked in. Inside, Ditans was busy drawing something. When he heard the door ring, he looked back and saw me walking in.

"Why are you here?" In view of my previous cheating behavior, Ditans already has a phobia and is afraid of receiving me in the Dark Temple, because every time I take the initiative to come to him Chapter 38: The Leopard Witch of. Then there must be something to trouble him, or else he's here to rip me off. Anyway, he has to pay something as soon as I come, so Ditans is now afraid of seeing me coming to his door.

Seeing Ditans' expression, I quickly stretched out my hand and swung it and explained, "Don't be nervous, I'm not here to steal your treasure, or I'm just here to ask you for some skeletons."

"Skeleton?" I was really relieved to hear that I wanted Skeleton Titans. After all, that's all the Dark Temple had. but. Thinking of my identity, Ditans estimated that I would not come to him for ordinary skeletons. So he asked nervously: "What kind of skeleton do you want?"

"It should be just an ordinary white skull. Just be more complete."

"White Skull? That's no problem. How many do you want? I'll have someone get them for you."

"It might take a lot."

"A lot?" Ditans' newly relieved heart began to worry again, and then asked me: "How much do you mean by a lot? It won't be hundreds or tens of millions, right?"

"That's not necessary. A few thousand or tens of thousands should be enough."

Ditans was finally relieved this time, and then looked at me and said, "If it's just this, then it's no problem. When do you want it?"

"It's better now. I'm in a hurry to help."

"Barcelona." As Ditans shouted, the door was suddenly pushed open. A guard came through the door.

"Lord God?"

"Take President Ziri to the skeleton storage place and tell the administrator. President Ziri needs a complete skeleton, just let him pick it out."

"Yes, Lord God." After accepting the order, the guard immediately looked at me and asked, "President Ziri, shall we go over now?"

I nodded and said hello to Ditans, and then followed the guard and left Ditans' office. However, we did not go directly to the storage room. Instead, we took a detour to find the old witch and took her with us. .

I know the level of skeletons, but the problem is that I am not sure whether the price of skeletons at the Magic Festival is linked to the level, so I need a professional to help me check.

When the old witch was brought over, she actually had a basket in her hand, but I recognized at a glance that this was not the basket she was carrying. The old witch did bring a basket when she went to the candy house, but it was completely different from the one in front of her, and the basket in front of her was too gorgeous.

At this time, the old witch was taking the fruits out of the basket one by one, and then nibbling them one by one. I was immediately made happy by the image of this guy. That basket should be the fruit basket in the Dark Temple. I had seen a similar fruit basket in Ditans' room before. Of course, the fruit in it was not ordinary fruit, but fruit with magical effects. This fruit is usually displayed only when entertaining special guests. I brought the old witch. The big demons who arranged for her probably felt that my status was different, so out of respect for me, they prepared a basket of the best fruits for the old witch. However, the girl's eating appearance is really ugly now. Not only did she eat a lot of fruits, she even carried out the basket. You can't afford to hurt a country witch who has never traveled far!

Seeing that the old witch was eating so badly, I went over and grabbed the basket and placed it on a stone pier by the roadside. The old witch glanced at me, but thinking of my strength and my status in the Dark Temple, He immediately softened, looked at the basket aggrievedly, and finally did not dare to pick it up again. It's not that the old witch is obedient, but because she is afraid. She already had a rough understanding of my strength before, and knew that she was no match for me, so she didn't dare to mess with me. But at that time, she just didn't dare to mess with me, but now she is very afraid of me, because here, she Finally understood the gap between us.

Although the old witch has never been to the Dark Temple, this does not prevent her from understanding the Dark Temple. After all, the fairy tale forest she lives in is close to the German-French border, and the headquarters of the Dark Temple is in Germany. It is impossible not to know. It is precisely because she knows what kind of organization the Dark Temple is that she is so afraid of me. On the surface, it seems that she has been acting like Grandma Liu since she entered the Grand View Garden. But she has actually been observing my behavior here. And everything she saw proved one thing, that is, even in a powerful organization like the Dark Temple, I still have this transcendent status, because everyone she saw along the way either didn't know me, but knew everyone. They all salute me and show unusual respect. What does this mean? This shows that although I am not from the Dark Temple, I can still make most of the people in the Dark Temple bow to me. This is definitely not what I can do with the little strength I showed in front of her, that is to say, she thought I was very powerful before. In fact, it is still the result of hiding most of the strength.

Because of this judgment, the old witch realized that she must never provoke me, not even at all, because I can influence the decisions of the Dark Temple, and to the Dark Temple, these guys are like ants. If they want to be crushed to death, The question of raising your hand is nothing.

The old witch was afraid that I would be unhappy. So I didn’t dare to do anything embarrassing anymore and just followed me forward. but. The calm she was trying to maintain quickly spiraled out of control again. Because after entering an underground entrance, she suddenly felt a dark aura—a dark aura so thick that she could almost see it directly with her eyes.

"This...this is...?"

"Below is our material warehouse, which is specially used to store materials for making undead creatures." After explaining, the guard who led the way knocked on the wall next to him, and soon a white void appeared under the steps in front of us. The shadow floated up along the passage.

"What's going on?" The shadow floated up and looked around before asking the guard.

The guard directly moved me to the front and introduced: "This is President Ziri. Lord Ditans asked me to bring him to get some skeletons. The master said that President Ziri can use them as he pleases and there is no need to worry about it."

"Okay. I understand." Xuying nodded, and then said to me: "President Ziri, please come with me."

"Okay. Please excuse me." After I finished speaking, I started walking down, but I stopped suddenly after taking only a few steps. Because I didn't hear the old witch coming up. When I looked back, I found that the old witch was still standing on the stairs in a daze. "Hey, are you leaving or not?"

"Ah? Oh!" The old witch reacted suddenly as if she had suddenly woken up, and then quickly followed her. I saw her following, so I didn't care anymore and kept moving forward.

The slope down this step is quite steep, but the step is not long and it ends quickly. Under the steps is not a warehouse, but a portal. On the huge obsidian platform, an oval-shaped portal stood there. In the center of the portal was a circle of rippling energy ripples.

The ghost who brought us down first went around to the side of the altar and operated on the frame of the portal a few times, then floated back to me and said: "President Ziri, please follow me." He said and took the lead to dive in. Entered inside the portal.

As the ghost entered, I immediately followed. Although the old witch was stunned by this portal before, she reacted and quickly jumped in after seeing us entering.

This portal in the Dark Temple is a bit strange. Other portals are like a piece of paper. You step in from one side of the door and step out from the other side in the next second. But after entering the portal in front of me, I actually entered a long black tunnel, like a time passage. After entering here, you can see a bright light several hundred meters away in front of you, which is the exit, while other places are full of rotating light spots, and you can't see anything else at all.

Of course I didn't pay much attention to such a passage, I just thought it was a bit strange. As for the old witch, she had never used the portal before. This was her first time using it, and she had no idea what was special about this portal.

Although there is a passage more than a hundred meters long in the middle, it is only a straight path after all, and it walks very fast. Soon we walked out of the teleportation gate on the other side, but as soon as we stepped out of the teleportation gate here, As soon as I opened the door, I felt a familiar breath coming towards me.

Taking a deep breath, I exhaled the gas with enjoyment, and then sighed: "The smell of death is always so sweet."

"Hahahaha, that is to say, President Ziri, you can enjoy this kind of atmosphere." The ghost next to him laughed and said: "Last time, a human necromancer was allowed to take away a set of dead bones from here, but he came in less than ten years ago. He ran away in a matter of minutes, trembling all over, and not everyone can bear this kind of death breath."

"It doesn't matter what others think. I really like this cool feeling anyway."

At the same time that I finished saying this, the old witch following me finally left the portal and entered the space here. But unlike me, this old witch was covered in blood almost as soon as she came out. Shivering, and then shouting excitedly while trembling, he rushed towards the white mountain not far away.

The so-called White Mountain is a pile of garbage made of bones of various creatures. There are almost all kinds of bones here. If you search carefully, you might even find some dragon bones. but. Although it is possible to find precious things like dragon bones here, this still cannot get rid of the fact that it is a garbage dump.

"Ah ha ha ha ha... We are rich..." The old witch rushed to the foot of the garbage mountain over there, then picked up a pile of bones and threw them into the sky. When the bones fell, they were immediately smashed and ran away.

The ghost standing next to me looked at the crazy old witch over there, and finally couldn't help but ask me with her eyes if there was something wrong with her brain. I could only explain helplessly: "I came from the countryside and have never seen the world. So much." Be more tolerant!”

The other party nodded in understanding, then floated over and said to the old witch who was still rolling in the pile of bones: "Sorry to interrupt you. In fact, the one behind you is a mountain of garbage. They are all the leftover things we picked out when sorting. Lord Ditans has said it. What you need is a complete skeleton, and those are all piled up over there."

After hearing this, the old witch realized that her previous behavior had embarrassed me again. She glanced at me worriedly, and after confirming that I was not angry, she carefully came down from the bone mountain, then walked behind me and stayed there without daring to mess up again. Talk about yelling.

Seeing that the old witch finally calmed down, I said to the ghost over there: "Please take us to where the skeletons are parked. We need some complete skeletons. Oh, by the way. Do you have individual skulls here?"

"There are quite a few skulls. You can look at them together if necessary. Anyway, they are all displayed together."

"Okay, take us there."

Ghost nodded and began to lead the way. We walked through pairs of mountains of corpses and seas of bones, and it felt like we were in a scrapyard. However, what was recycled here was not human garbage, but the body remains left behind after the death of living creatures. In addition to the broken skin and bones at the gate, we later saw a huge pool of rotten meat, which was full of dark brown syrup-like stuff, but I knew that it was actually meat sauce, not made of meat. Doenjang is simply a mushy meat sauce made by smashing fresh meat.

Passing through this pit of meat sauce, we saw another large pile of bones below. This bone pile is full of long bones, which look like bones from the legs or arms of some kind of creature, but they are definitely not human because they are too thick and long.

After walking around this bone pile, we also saw a hill made of some kind of monster's head and a pile of corpses of creatures that we couldn't name. Then we passed through a large bone powder area that looked like snow. Finally arrived at the relatively complete skeleton placement area.

"This is it." Ghost pointed to a straight passage in front and said: "This side on the right is full of complete skeletons, ranging from low to high levels. The second mountain on the left is all made of The skulls are piled up, but if you need to, please start from the top and don’t knock the skull mountain down. It took me several days to pile it up last time. Okay, if there’s nothing else to do You can choose here, I'll wait at the gate, call me anytime if you need anything."

"Okay. Sorry to bother you."

After sending away the ghost manager who was leading the way, I turned around and said to the old witch: "Go and see which one is valuable."

"This, this, this..." The old witch who was quite excited before was now embarrassed, which made me confused for a while.

"what's wrong with you?"

"No...no...I am..."

"What's not mine? Come and check the price. We have to rush back to attend the Magic Festival tonight."

The more excited the old witch became, the less able she was to speak complete sentences. Finally, after holding back for a long time, she finally said completely: "But the skeletons here are all valuable. I don't know which one to choose!"

"Are they all worth anything?" I asked in surprise: "How much is a complete skeleton worth?"

"A set of bones without any cracks is worth ten magic coins."

"A skeleton is worth ten magic coins? How many magic coins did you use to build the candy house?"

"One thousand. This also includes the money I spent on other auxiliary materials."

"Is magic dessert so cheap?"

"No, no, no. Magic desserts are not cheap at all." The old witch quickly explained: "Actually, the magic desserts of the magic pastry chef are relatively expensive consumables. In our place, those with two to three thousand magic coins are considered It’s a financially well-off existence. If those with more than 10,000 yuan are wealthy, only the demon kings can get more than 100,000 magic coins.”

"Only the Demon King can get more than 100,000 magic coins? Are you all poor people over there? I thought your magic coins had a high gold content, but they are so cheap!"

"This... we think it is indeed valuable!"

I looked at the old witch helplessly, but in the end I didn't explain to her. Judging from their trading currencies and other things, the trading partners in this so-called magic festival are simply beggars. Life is so hard and I think I am a big devil. How miserable it is to be such a bad guy!

"Is the most expensive thing in your place the white skull? What's the price of this kind of silver skull?" I dug out a silver skull from the pile of bones next to me and asked.

"And the silver skull?" The old witch almost jumped in front of me, then grabbed the silver skull and looked at it carefully for a long time, and finally shouted: "This will definitely cause a sensation. It has never appeared in our place. I have never experienced such a high-quality skeleton. I didn’t expect that the skeleton could evolve to a silver-like state. This skeleton is really top quality. President Ziri, I believe that as long as there is this skeleton, it will sell for hundreds... no, thousands. Tens of thousands of magic coins are possible."

"This pair of silver ones is worth tens of thousands of magic coins? If I move all the mountains here, can't I buy the entire Magic Festival?"

Because the bones of the silver skull are also white. So you can't find it if you don't pay attention, I say this. The old witch next to me finally noticed that there was something different about the skull mountain behind me. When I got closer, I almost fainted. She just said that the silver skeletons worth thousands of magic coins were piled up like firewood here like a hill. It's not the kind of artificial rockery hill, but a real hill, just like the hill in the forest area with a drop of tens of meters. Although in the mountains, this size can only be regarded as a dwarf, but in terms of human height, this is definitely a very big guy.

Looking at the mountain of silver skulls behind me, the old witch wanted to cry without tears. Since meeting me. She found that her values ​​​​had been crumbling, and now they were about to collapse completely.

Seeing the old witch’s reaction, I stopped asking her. Just pull her forward, because the ghost guarding the material warehouse said so. The skeletons here are arranged in order from low to high, and the best ones are at the top, so I plan to skip the middle part and go directly to the far end to see if there are any good ones.

The old witch was just stunned by the silver skull mountain, and she was pulled to the end of the passage by me in a daze. The Skeleton Mountain is no longer visible here, but only a small pile of skeletons. Of course, there are one or two hundred skeletons in this pile. But having seen the majestic Skeleton Mountain before, such a small pile of skeletons really doesn’t make sense.

"Please help me see if this skeleton can be sold? How much is it worth?" I pointed to the pile of skeletons next to me and asked the old witch. As a result, the old witch just took one look and started crying, which actually shocked me. "Hey, hey, what are you doing? It's okay, why are you crying?"

The old witch ignored me at first and cried for several minutes before crying and saying, "This...this can't be sold at all!"

I said nonchalantly: "Isn't there something else if it can't be sold? You don't have to cry if it's not worth anything?"

"I, I'm not crying that this skeleton is not valuable. In fact, this skeleton is not worthless, but it is too valuable so it cannot be sold."

"It's too valuable to sell?" I chewed this sentence carefully, and then I understood what the old witch meant.

What is placed next to us is a black skeleton. The bones are completely black without any variegation. Moreover, if you look closely at this bone, you can see that it can reflect light. Its material is similar to jade, and its surface is as bright as a mirror. It feels like a mirror. It also feels very delicate. There is no need to test the magic properties. Just by looking at it, you can tell that it is not ordinary. However, precisely because this thing is so good, it cannot be sold. It’s not that it’s not valuable, it’s that it’s too valuable and no one can afford it. It's like you package all the modern teaching materials and experimental equipment from primary school to university into one set. Plus a variety of industrial infrastructure and unclassified technology in all areas. How much is one of these items worth? It is expensive, but it can be calculated, and it should be within the affordability of some wealthy people. After all, it only contains basic human knowledge and basic industrial information. The total price may exceed 100 million, but it is only a matter of several billion to tens of billions. This may be a lot of money for an individual, but it is not an unacceptable price for a country. But if you brought this pile of stuff back to the Industrial Revolution, how much do you think this pile of stuff would be worth? Of course it will be very cheap if you sell it cheaply. But judging from the actual value of these things at the time, these things would be so expensive that even the money of all the countries in the world at that time would not be enough to buy these things. This is what is called being too valuable to sell.

This is probably the case with the black skeletons around us. The price of previous silver skulls may have been nearly 10,000 yuan. On top of the silver skulls, there are gold skulls, platinum skulls, crystal skulls, diamond skulls, blood diamond skulls and other relatively rare high-end skulls. A silver one is worth 10,000 magic coins. Even if the price increases tenfold in each subsequent episode, a blood diamond skeleton is already worth a billion magic coins. The old witch said before that anyone with more than 100,000 magic coins would be a big devil-level rich man on their side. So what level is one billion magic coins? and. What's even more terrible is that it seems that the price of skeletons does not increase at a rate of ten times per level. After all, jumping from the White Bone Skeleton to the Silver Skeleton is just one level higher. But the price suddenly jumped from ten magic coins to ten thousand magic coins, which may not be more than that. This is already a thousand-fold increase. Even if there is no chance of increasing each level by a thousand times in the future, it should be more than ten times, right? Calculated in this way, the price of the blood skeleton might already be an astronomical figure. But that's not all yet. The completely black skeleton around us that I don’t even recognize is actually photographed so many places behind the blood skeleton. That means this thing is many times more expensive than the blood skeleton. So how to calculate the price of this thing?

After understanding the reason, I finally understood why the old witch was so frightened that she cried. If a normal person picks up one or two hundred cash on the road. You will definitely be happy, but if you go out of your house one day, you will find a billion yuan piled at the door. The whole corridor and a large area of ​​ground in front of the house were piled up. What's your reaction? No matter how strict China’s public security management is. I am also absolutely certain that you will never survive a week after suddenly picking up a billion, unless you have the ability to spend all the money before you are killed by a group of desperadoes. Note that money is spent, not saved. It only counts if it is absolutely impossible to get it back.

This is the situation of the old witch now. The reason why she cried was that she was frightened, because the thing in front of her was too valuable. She was worried that if I really took one out, what awaited her would not be a fortune, but her life. .

"Can you stop crying? If this doesn't work, what's the worst we can do if we change it to a cheaper one? I didn't say I had to use this one."

"You really don't want it?" The old witch looked at me and asked in surprise.

"Nonsense, just one word from me, Ditans opened the entire warehouse to me. If I want this kind of thing, when can't I come and pick it up? Why did I lie to you?"

The old witch was right when she heard it. The things here are astronomically rich, so I don't care about this little money at all. Besides, magic coins are only a currency they circulate in a small area and are of no use to us, so people outside will not work hard to earn magic coins.

"Since the one that's too expensive can't be sold, let's find a more moderate one." I said, pulling the old witch and running back, then stopped in front of the platinum skull, and then asked: "What do you think of this? "

With the stimulation of the black skull before, the old witch's ability to accept it is obviously bullish now. After carefully checking the hardness and magic resistance of the platinum skull, she finally nodded and said: "At least five million magic coins, this is the guaranteed minimum price. If you want to trade, I suggest you choose a lower-grade one. This one is still too expensive. Although it can be sold, there is no guarantee that someone will take the risk for the sake of immediate profits."

I thought for a while and said, "I'm worried that the magic pastry chef won't cooperate with me, so I'm going to beat him up with money. We won't sell this platinum one for now, but it will be useful to have two sets."

"Two two, two... two?" The old witch was even tongue-tied when she heard that I was going to bring two.

"What? Too few? Then bring ten. It's not high-end stuff anyway."

"No, no, no. It's not too little, it's too much!"

"Too many? Probably not many. No one will know if you don't take them out anyway. But since you say so, just bring two. As for the ones that are taken out for trading, let's use the lower-level Golden Skeleton Headquarters, right? Come and take a look at this How much does a golden skull cost?”

The old witch briefly looked at the status and attributes of the golden skeleton, and then said: "Although it is still very expensive, you can consider selling this, but the quantity cannot be large. In terms of pricing, I think five hundred thousand should be a more reasonable price."

"Then how much do you think we will bring?"

"One or two is enough. If there are too many, you won't be able to sell them at a high price. And this is too expensive, and most people can't afford it. After all, the devil is in the minority, and one or two is enough. If you want to make a lot of money, more It would also be nice to bring some silver or white bones and skulls.”

I nodded and thought what the old witch said made sense, but of course the quantity couldn't be taken exactly according to the old witch's calculations. I still asked for more just to be safe. I still brought two platinum skeletons. Five gold skeletons were selected, and a total of twenty silver skeletons were obtained. I didn't bring any bones and skulls. But got a thousand individual skulls. A skull saves much space than a whole skeleton, and a white skull can be sold for six magic coins, while a whole white skull only costs ten magic coins. No matter how you calculate it, it is more cost-effective to just bring the skull.

After selecting the skeleton, I took the old witch and left the warehouse area. Of course, I had to announce what I had taken when I came out. Ditans was a little surprised when he heard that I only took so few things. Although the old witch already thought these things were terrifyingly expensive, in Ditans and I's opinion. It's like borrowing a garlic bulb from a neighbor's house, then turning around and forgetting about it. Didn't take it seriously at all.

Originally, I planned to take some black crystals from Ditans, but the old witch said that if we brought too many things at once, it would easily attract others to snatch them. And although there are many black crystals in the Dark Temple, there are not many crystal balls. And I don’t have time to polish this crystal ball now, so I just gave up. Of course, according to the old witch, every Magic Festival will have some strange requirements for acquiring items, and we might even be able to trade in some of the ready-made items we have.

I also agree with this statement, because the things I carry are basically like a mobile warehouse. This is mainly a problem with Fenglong. Because Fenglong does not have the ability to identify items, she will not choose it every time I drop equipment in battle. Instead, as long as the equipment appears, no matter what it is, it will be loaded into Fenglong space as soon as possible. In addition, I am lazy and don’t often sort out the junk equipment and various materials in the Fenglong space, so the end result is that my Fenglong space is often filled with junk that I don’t even know when I put it in. . Of course, this actually has its advantages. For example, I can always find something unexpectedly useful when unexpected. After all, it seems that those things are completely unnecessary to carry with me, but I did not clean up the Phoenix Dragon Space, so I took them with me instead.

I came back with a full load of skeletons. On the way back, the old witch refused to get on the bird's back no matter what. In the end, I had no choice but to summon Lucky out, and then I climbed onto Lucky's back. As for the old witch, Lucky used it directly. A paw carried it away.

Although being caught by Lucky was not as comfortable as sitting on a flying bird, at least the speed was not too fast. However, because there was no rectifier on the dragon to help block the strong wind, the old witch almost didn't dry out along the way, and the speed was just slow. A lot, and the old witch was still vomiting when she landed. Anyway, Lucky's flying speed was one to five hundred to six hundred kilometers an hour, which was much faster than that broom, so the old witch still couldn't adapt.

Because when we came back, we sensed the signal from the rose vine we left before, so the landing place was next to the rose vine, which is where we left before. After taking back the lucky and rose vines, I lifted up the old witch with one hand and asked her to show me the way while walking. The old witch was almost fainting from vomiting, and it was useless even if I asked Ling to give her a dark blessing. , I guess it was still blown by the wind. After all, the witch's physical fitness is not much better than that of ordinary people. With a strong wind of 500 kilometers blowing all the way back, she is already lucky if she doesn't die.

"How do we go now?" After walking for a while in the direction indicated by the old witch, we saw a cave, but there were two roads at the entrance of the cave, one was to enter the cave, and the other extended forward along the mountain wall.

The old witch had recovered a little by this time. He looked up at the terrain and pointed ahead and said: "Don't go into the cave, go forward, you will see several caves later, but don't go in until you see a cave with a stone pillar standing in the center of the cave entrance." "

According to the old witch's words, I quickly found the cave. There was indeed a stone pillar at the entrance of the cave, which was very easy to identify.

The route after entering the cave is a straight path to the end, with no branches in the middle. It passed easily. However, coming out of the cave did not lead to an underground space, but to a valley. This valley is relatively low, and the entrance to the cave we walked out of can overlook the entire valley.

Although according to the old witch's previous statement, this may be a gathering place for various villains in the call world, but it is completely different from the environment I imagined where the undead were everywhere and the surroundings were filled with bone decorations. If I hadn't known in advance that this place was a gathering place for bad guys like the Valley of the Wicked, I almost thought it was an elf village. There is only one street in the entire valley. It extends all the way along the valley. There are wooden houses on both sides of the street, which look very simple. But it feels very exotic. There are many poles like lampposts inserted on the street in front of the house. Its function is indeed a street lamp pole, because there is a large cage at the top of each pole, which contains many small glowing bugs. Of course, they are not fireflies. There are many monsters in the game.

Because the mountain walls on both sides are very close to each other, although the village below is not small in area, it is very slender as a whole. Some plants growing on the mountain walls on both sides overlap with each other, blocking most of the street below. If there are air units conducting reconnaissance here, they might just ignore it. certainly. These plants are not deliberately designed to camouflage, after all, there is no concept of aerial reconnaissance in the game.

"Is this the gathering point for the Magic Festival?"

The old witch heard my inquiry and immediately said: "Yes. This is the gathering point, but it is also a village in itself. Even when the magic festival is not held, there are people living there, and you can also trade some things, but at that time there are more people. Not much. Most people don’t need money urgently and they won’t trade things during the non-Magic Festival, because there are too few people doing business at this time. Whether you are selling or buying things, the price will definitely be reduced. So you are not really in a hurry. Everyone tries to hoard things until the Magic Festival before selling them.”

I nodded to express my understanding, and then suddenly pointed to a stone building in the distance that was obscured by trees and mountain walls, with only half of the top exposed, and asked, "What is that place?"

"That is the Dark Lord's castle, and this is also considered the Dark Lord's territory."

"The Dark Lord? Is he very powerful?"

The old witch originally wanted to say that she was very powerful, but after taking a look at me, she suddenly got stuck. After waiting for a while, she said: "Maybe it's not very powerful for you. I don't know, anyway, you are very powerful to me. They are both invincible. I can’t tell who is stronger among you!”

I nodded and did not ask this question again. Instead, I asked the old witch to go down to the village below.

Just like the old witch said before, although tomorrow is the Magic Festival, people have already started to arrive tonight. In fact, it's only around five o'clock in the afternoon local time, but it's already quite lively here. I wasn't here to participate in the Magic Festival, so I didn't care about those people and just asked the old witch to take me to the magic pastry chef's shop.

According to the old witch, the magic pastry chef has a fixed shop here and does not set up a stall outside. This is one of the reasons why the old witch said before that the Magic Pastry Chef's magic desserts are very expensive. Here, anything that can be sold in stores is very expensive. This is equivalent to the reality of specialty stores and street stalls, the prices are definitely different.

It's a pity that the magic pastry chef obviously didn't come so early. When we arrived, the door of the shop was closed and a seal was posted outside. It's not a piece of paper that will break as soon as it is torn, but a real magic seal. Unless you use powerful plastic magic to blast it, it is really difficult to break it. However, since this place is the territory of that big devil, he will definitely maintain order here. If you have the ability to sneak in and steal things, just use magic to blast it. This would be too disrespectful, even for that big devil. No matter how good-tempered he is, he will definitely punish the offender.

I came here to join the Magic Pastry Chef, so naturally I won’t demolish the house, but the Magic Pastry Chef hasn’t arrived yet, so I can only follow the old witch’s advice to find a buyer to sell the skeleton.

"Who did you sell the skeletons to before?" I asked the old witch.

The old witch thought for a while and said: "The guy I sold to before didn't have much strength, and the price he offered was not high. I sold it to him just because he had what I needed. In this exchange, I save the need to find someone else to buy it." The other party made a profit when buying the materials, so I sold them to him. But you don’t need those things, so we can find another buyer.”

"Then who do you want to sell it to?"

"I think it's best to sell it to Grand Wizard Glenn."

"I don't know anyone here anyway, so you can just take me there. By the way, is the great wizard Glenn here?"

"It should be here. Grand Wizard Glenn is one of the founders of the Magic Festival, and he is always the first to arrive. He has always had a good reputation in our circle, the price is fair, and he will not cheat us. The most important thing is He has the financial resources to buy our stuff, and other small buyers simply can’t afford our high-end stuff.”

"The analysis makes sense, let's go take a look now."

"Okay, come with me."

Under the guidance of the old witch, we walked close to the castle I saw before. Previously, only half of the top of the castle could be seen at the entrance of the valley. When we got closer, we discovered that there was actually only half of the castle. The castle is backed by a mountain wall, and the back half is entirely inside the mountain wall. There is only a facade and half of the castle in front.

Because Grand Wizard Glenn is the founder, he has a relatively high status, and his bunk is naturally in the best location. This place is the square in front of the castle. This is a gathering place for stall holders, and it is also the only relatively spacious place in the valley. And because every magic festival, the big devil in the castle will announce the start of the magic festival here, so this area is the most popular place.

"Come here, this is Grand Wizard Glenn's shop."

As I followed the old witch towards the shop that obviously looked much bigger than the shops around it, I asked, "What does this shop sell?"

"Working hard." The old witch said smoothly.

"What?" (To be continued)rq! ! !
