Chapter 91 Book Bargains, Zerekan Slave Girl [Seeking Subscription II]

Rebecca's voice was heard.

Chen Xuan gathered his thoughts and looked at the street ahead.

Rather than saying it was a street, it was better to say it was a market stall.

Almost every piece of open space in sight was occupied by various stalls.

Garrison soldiers wearing light armor and holding long spears patrolled inside and outside the street market.

To set up a stall here, you only need to pay a certain fee to the state city, and there is no strict entry threshold.

Compared with those big business houses, the Crooked Bone Market is more popular with adventurers.

Many of the people who come here to set up stalls are adventurers themselves.

This feature reminds Chen Xuan of a flea market.

Because the threshold for setting up stalls is low, and the goods sold have different origins.

Among them are various unknown items produced in ancient ruins.

This makes this place a famous "treasure hunting" place in Magtan City.

Most of the people who linger here are guys with limited money.

Looking around, you can see groups of halflings, dwarves drinking strong liquor, lizard-headed warriors covered with scales, and even Dax lobstermen from the distant swamps and oceans...

Those lobstermen are two meters tall and look exactly like big lobsters walking upright.

It's just that their claws are more flexible, and their tails have become suitable for moving on land.

This kind of ethnic group living in swamps and oceans is rarely seen in Magtan City.

But these big lobsters are indeed a member of the multi-ethnic alliance.

The first thought Chen Xuan had when he saw these guys was whether their meat could be eaten...

In addition to "Taobao", all kinds of materials, magic scrolls, weapons and armor, etc. sold here are also cheaper than those in the business.

Of course, if you want to gain something in Crooked Bone Street, you can't do without a smart mind and a shrewd vision.

This is also the reason why Chen Xuan and the little cat girl came from the West District.

The effect of the [Insight] ability can help him break through the thorns here!

After entering the street market, it was like entering another world.

All I could hear were shouting, insulting, and bargaining.

The air was turbid and smelly, and all the stench you could imagine could be smelled here.

After a few glances, I found that most of the stalls in the entrance area were still mainly monster materials.

There were all kinds of strange furs, claws, and bones.

There was even a large bunch of dried goblin X-tools hanging on one stall.

It is said that stewing these ghost things and eating them can give you the strong desire and physical strength comparable to goblins.

Several highland barbarians with grass skirts around their waists, who looked like upright brown bears, were bargaining in front of the stalls.

Those fancy things were obviously not in Chen's purchasing target.

Fortunately, after the master and servant walked along the crooked bone street market for a while, they finally passed through the "material stall area" and entered the "ancient ruins and cave products area".

The "ancient ruins" here refer to the ancient ruins of Naroa.

The "cave" is a tower-type and a ruin-type cave.

Unlike the common cave type, these two types of monster caves will evolve and reproduce some ruins and sacrificial sites from the monster world, and some strange items will appear in them.

This is also the place where "Taobao customers" mainly linger.

Most of the goods displayed on the stalls are still stained with hardened dirt.

Incomplete statues, broken swords, shields and unknown parts are everywhere.

God knows where these things are dug from.

Chen Xuan stood in front of a stall and glanced at the things displayed on it.

Then a line of golden subtitles appeared in his mind

[A rune sword that decayed in battle and time, from a 2,700-year-old Makanha armored dwarf swordsman]

...

[Severely worn magic puppet parts]

...

[Fossilized feces left by an ancient soldier]

...

[Old alchemical glass]

...

Chen Xuan curled his lips. The so-called ancient relics on the stalls were basically garbage.

But he did not give up. He activated [Insight] to scan every stall in front of him while walking.

Rebecca, the little cat girl, was also looking at it with interest.

She was going to follow her master's advice and buy a rune sword to replace the original iron sword.

...

More than ten minutes later, Chen Xuan sighed.

Forget about picking up bargains.

The so-called ancient relics sold here are basically from an ancient mountain battlefield around Magtan City. It was a war more than two thousand years ago.

They are not produced from ancient tombs or large-scale civilization relics.

Therefore, what can be dug there are all garbage, which belong to the waste on the battlefield.

But Chen Xuan also found that there are still many people buying ancient "junk".

And they pick and choose like buying lottery tickets, hoping for good luck.

It is said that a lucky guy once found a precious high-level magic skill in the interlayer of the hilt of an ancient broken sword.

Someone else found a gold-level frost magic gem in a statue wrapped in a soil shell.

It is these examples of good luck that attract "Taobao customers" who want to get rich quickly.

After Chen Xuan's [Insight] "scan", it can be confirmed that there are no good goods hidden in today's ancient relics.

However, when he came to the stall of the cave products, he suddenly saw a very familiar mark on a broken stone slab.

It was a broken stone slab the size of a palm, with unknown words the size of mung beans engraved on it.

There was also a carving of the Rose Key on the edge.

Although only half of it was left, Chen Xuan still recognized it at a glance.

Staring at the fragment of the stone slab, the golden prompt made his eyes jump.

[The broken stone slab recording the monster shuttle ritual]

[The content is as follows: The great power divided into billions of parts opened up countless channels... The descendants of magic power crossed... isolated... sucked... Naroa...]

...

He squatted down and picked up the stone slab.

His fingers stroked the remaining half of the Rose Key carving.

Some guesses arose in his mind.

Putting down the stone slab, he unconsciously touched his forehead.

Except for this stone slab, the other objects on the stall were also waste.

Even the greatest value of the stone slab itself is the unknown text engraved on it.

The natives of Naroa cannot decipher it, but [Insight] can do it.

Without stopping any longer, he walked forward.

Not far away is a stall for various books.

Naroa also has papermaking, and books are mainly divided into paper and leather.

Those precious single copies are often cast with various protective spells.

Ordinary books are not so particular.

Moreover, many books do not even know who the author is, and a large number of handed-down copies appear inexplicably.

The mainstream of the bookstall is various poems and novels.

Chen Xuan plans to buy a few books similar to geography here and take them back to read.

When he was carefully selecting, another stall not far behind him came with angry curses.

"Damn profiteers!"

"This is the fine book from the library in Daklunbang City that you mentioned!"

"The core of the book is eaten away by book lice!"

"Only half of the content is readable!"

"Give me back!"

A dwarf warrior with a full beard was seen waving a book in a rage.

He jumped up and down with a loud voice.

The stall owner was a young human dressed as a bachelor, but he didn't wear a badge on his chest.

"You have read half of the content..."

"So I can only give you ten crowns back."

"No! At least twenty crowns!"

...

Chen Xuan listened to their quarrel and took a look at the book in the dwarf's hand.

He didn't see the title of the book clearly, but he subconsciously activated [Insight].

[A book called Romani Love Adventures, from the old book collection of the library in Daklunbang City, which has passed through 19 owners. Under the cover, there is a page of undead magic that is considered taboo, which was sealed in the hands of the 14th owner of the book three years ago]

…

"Oh? Undead magic page?"

Chen Xuan immediately became interested.

Speaking of which, he seems to have never seen undead magic in the city.

Spellcasters mainly use the magic of the major elements, supplemented by the power of shadow, holy light, and nature.

Originally, he thought that there was no undead magic in the Naroa continent, and he was thinking that when his magic attainments were higher, he would go to the Blue Star Slaughterhouse to buy a few hundred kilograms of bones and try to study it.

Now it seems that Naroa is not without undead magic, but it has long been regarded as a taboo.

Chen Xuan does not know the specific reason, but the fact that this taboo can be insisted on and implemented must be that there must be something wrong with the undead magic that made the natives of Naroa extremely afraid.

After all, manipulating corpses and playing with death itself has a rebellious nature.

But Chen Xuan didn't have so many scruples.

Just at this time, the dwarf who returned the book took more than ten black iron coins and left cursing.

He walked to the stall.

He picked up the "Romani Love Adventure" and flipped through a few pages in a serious manner.

"How much is this book?"

"This is a fine book from the library in Daklunbang City. The minimum price is thirty crowns..."

"I heard it just now. I want fifteen crowns."

"Damn dwarf, I wish all his enemies a long life!"

"Deal, this book is yours, but I won't accept returns!"

"No problem."

Chen Xuan took out a handful of black iron coins for the transaction.

After the money and goods were settled, he got up and left neatly.

Looking at the old book in his hand, the little cat girl blushed again.

Because all books with the word "love" are absolutely erotic books, which contain a lot of indescribable plots, and there is no such restriction in the Naroa continent.

The authors are all shameless and bold, and the plots they describe are quite obscene.

Therefore, this kind of books has become a vulgar entertainment book that adventurers often take to the wild to kill time.

Chen Xuan just flipped through a few pages and saw at least ten sex scenes.

But he still just smiled and didn't explain too much.

Then, the master and servant picked a few more books on common sense.

Not long after, the cat girl had more big books in her hands: "Naroa Panorama", "Monster Weakness Atlas", "Legendary Adventurer Angos Fasai's Adventure Diary" and so on.

The scope of the Crooked Bone Market is very large, and there is a small square in the central area.

When Chen Xuan and Rebecca were about to cross the square and go to the weapons and armor area at the other end.

Both of them were attracted by the lively shouting in the square.

"Rare to see! Hard to see!"

"Mezerin Slave Trading Company is honored to meet you all in Magtan City!"

"The items to be auctioned below are rare items!"

"Zerikan twin slave girls from the far east!"

As soon as these words came out, the adventurers who were watching suddenly became excited and whistled loudly.

"Everyone must know that there is a mysterious kingdom, Zerikan, in the Serikania Desert in the far east of Naloa, southeast of the Blue Ridge Mountains."

"That's the home of the Gobi Gila Monster, which gave birth to countless creatures as terrifying as it."

"Zerikan women are born wild warriors and superb swordsmen!"

The host's eloquence was excellent, mixed with wisecracks, making the big bosses at the scene laugh.

…

A slave auction was actually being held in the square.

Because of the widespread existence of contracts, the bad behavior of catching and selling slaves was once very common.

It was not until the multi-ethnic alliance announced that those who caught slaves on a large scale and then sold them under contract would be severely punished and took decisive countermeasures, was the rampant slave trade curbed.

Private master-servant relationships like Chen Xuan and Rebecca are equally common in Naroa.

It just basically has a clear age limit.

At first, Kitty Girl chose to exchange for a chance of survival by using a three-year servant contract that came with various restrictions.

I just didn't expect that Chen Xuan could modify the contract.

This kind of contract-buying method is not uncommon anywhere in Naroa.

The two-way restriction clause requires both master and servant to abide by the bottom line.

As for the slave trade, that's another story.

Businessmen who can auction slaves on the street basically have a license issued by the alliance.

To obtain a legal license, one must sign a treaty swearing to abide by the restrictions on slave capture within the jurisdiction.

In such an environment, slave traders will always choose ethnic groups that are not part of the multi-ethnic alliance to capture.

Most of those marginalized ethnic groups live in remote areas.

Zerikan is one of them.

It is famous for Eastern alchemy and desert, and is home to many violent monsters.

It is one of the few areas where local monsters can suppress the burrow monsters.

The Zerikans are brave and good at fighting, especially the local women, who are particularly good at fighting with knives.

The knife is like their third arm.

Therefore, Zerikan's female slaves are very popular and suitable to serve as escorts.

In contrast, the price paid by the slave-catching team has also risen.

You may not see a Zerikan slave in Magtan City for several years, so everyone at the scene was very excited.

The lively atmosphere also illustrates this point.

Chen Xuan, who was just passing by at first, took one look from a distance and couldn't move his eyes again.

He forcibly pulled Rebecca from the side and squeezed into the side of the auction house.

There were two young women with black hair and brown skin, each wearing a loose cloth robe and tied to a wooden stake.

They lowered their heads, and their black hair covered most of their faces with tattoo marks.

Chen Xuan on the sidelines looked excited and his eyes were wide open!

Because the faces of the two women on the stage all have Blue Star-standard oriental faces.

But there are some obvious differences from Xia Guo's style.

It’s more like the appearance style of Mongolia near Central Asia!

Coupled with the tattoos on their faces that have obvious clan characteristics, these two Zerikan women look very enchanting.

The kitten girl Rebecca was a little surprised at first and didn't understand why her master was so excited.

It wasn't until she took a few glances at the woman's appearance that she suddenly realized.

This was the first time she had seen a Zerikan, and now it seemed that the two female slaves and their master had some similarities in appearance and style!

"Are you going to the auction?"

When Chen Xuan heard her question, he nodded first, then shook his head.

"Let's check the situation first."

"They are not from my hometown."

"It's just a coincidence."

At this moment, he had already regained his composure.

There is still a big difference between the Zerikans and the Easterners of Blue Star.

The first is skin color. The former is a darker wheat color, while the latter is light yellow.

Another point is that the Zerikan's eyebrows are sharper, looking like vigilant hunters.

There is nothing similar to Blue Star's Eastern culture in his body.

This made Chen Xuan, who originally thought that a fellow villager was meeting a fellow villager, quickly returned to calmness from the surprise in his heart.

But he was still very interested in the Zerikans.

Be prepared to use your discretion as to whether or not to participate in the auction.

…

If nothing else, there will be another chapter tonight.
