this is the largest underground market for magic items in the northern Alliance. You might not be able to see so many magic items here even if you go to the capital. the guide sarady laughed softly.
the way he looked at zhao xu also became more and more appreciative. to him, a customer like this who was willing to part with him meant that he would be making a lot of money tonight.
If the man in front of him could buy a magic item worth more than 30000 gold coins tonight, he would be able to advance to the next level.
As for his mage outfit, salazi did not think much of it.
Many new buyers who came to buy magic items liked to wear a mage’s robe and pretend to be a mage, or they would bring a mage-like follower.
He tried to use this to increase his “professionalism” and avoid being cheated.
It was just that a set of robes was easy to buy, but the badge that represented identity and the spells that could be cast were not something that just anyone could get.
Suddenly, salazi thought of a certain room that was open tonight and asked humbly, ” Sir, if you can provide proof of your identity as a mage, we can give you a guarantee amount based on the credit system because we have a cooperative relationship with the northern Alliance’s mage Association branch.
As if he was worried that Zhao Xu would think that he was suspicious of his identity, sarady quickly added, ” “Sir, if you’ve just updated your identity information, like you’ve just become an official mage, then we’re definitely not as timely as Mystra’s. We might not be able to keep up with the news immediately.”
or rather, if you have enough financial resources and don’t need a credit line as a guarantee, then you naturally don’t have to consider this small suggestion.
During the day, salazi had thought that the old man had simply introduced them to a group of adventurers who had pooled their funds to purchase the items.
at this time, he was already somewhat cautious.
the man in front of her was fine.
The key point was that the mysterious woman who had been standing at the back all this time had a faint bearing and posture that made him feel that it was not a trivial matter, as if she was facing someone of high status.
Zhao Xu had originally planned to see if he could get some magic items from this place before reporting to the local magic Association’s branch and taking advantage of the time difference.
boxn ov el. c o mHowever, he had just received a message from lady Wuyue.
This was a ” key event ” that could shake the seven or eight major forces South of the ice field mountain range.
He was already in another country in his previous life, but he was able to find out about it in the tavern a few days later.
Even if there was a person to pass the news, it would take a few days of riding at full speed. Now, even a piece of gossip news could be passed at such a speed.
One could only imagine how terrifying the significance of this was.
Since that was the case, there was no point in him hiding anymore.
By the next morning, he would already be on his way to the fallen object.
zhao xu immediately took out his wizard badge and put his mithril sparkle badge on top of it.
then please help me check what my guarantee limit is. zhao xu said.
It was reasonable to say that the black market of magical items in the northern Alliance required an uncountable number of detection spells and identification spells.
As for the third-circle ‘Mystic vision’, which could be permanently maintained with the fifth-circle’ magic everlasting’, unless one was a fifth-circle mage and could also find gold coins, it would be impossible to obtain it.
Otherwise, if he were to apply for a permanent position at the Association, he would not know when he would be able to get in line.
permanency spells all consumed one’s own “life energy” and affected the speed of promotion. therefore, most fifth-circle sorcerers who mastered this spell would only prepare a few for themselves at most and rarely cast it on others.
Furthermore, permanency also had to constantly worry about blind mages throwing spells such as ‘dispel magic’ at it.
Once it was broken, it would be blood and tears.
Therefore, the ” Northern Alliance wizard Association branch “, which had some jurisdiction over the branches of the wizard Association in the major towns of the northern Alliance, definitely had a share in this underground black market.
There were even some magical items that were created by the mages using the ” creation of wondrous items ” and were hung here for sale.
It was a pity that the branch of the wizard Association in Starfall town that Zhao Xu was going to was a place where people didn’t have much say. He wouldn’t be able to get into the key ranks and wouldn’t be able to affect the black market’s transactions.
In the end, he was not a ” local “.
From birth to where he learned magic, none of the events took place in the northern Alliance, so naturally, no one came to talk about common interests with him.
Most of them thought that he was just here to gilded himself, and they would send him off when his term was over.
But then again, when the mages of the Association had enough interactions with the forces behind the black market, it meant that the mages had the ability to cash out in the ‘black market’.
In short, mages could work here.
The main problem was that Arthur’s spellcasting fees weren’t that high. The market price was about the spellcaster’s level multiplied by the number of rounds multiplied by 10 gold coins.
A zero-circle spell was half the price of a level 1 spell.
For an ordinary 1st-circle mage, casting a zero-circle spell would cost a pitiful 5 gold coins, and 10 gold coins for a 1st-circle spell.
A level 5 wizard with the third circle ‘arcane vision’ could barely earn 150 gold coins.
He could only get two a day, not to mention that the main demand was the zero-circle detection spell and the first-circle appraisal spell.
The casting time of appraisal was as long as ‘one hour’, and no matter how much time a mage spent, they would not have the time to earn this hard-earned money.
In that case, the quota that the other party gave him could only be determined by the limited number of Level 3 spell slots.
And the kind that would be discounted for long-term transactions. After all, mages were waiting at the Association every day to be entrusted to cast spells, and they might not be able to get it every day.
To him, a single cast was a consumable, but to many families, it might cost them their entire fortune.
If he worked for two months, he would be able to get a loan of 5000 gold coins, which would be enough to buy some ordinary magic items.
However, Zhao Xu wasn’t interested in this. Since he was going to make a big deal out of it, he wasn’t going to be satisfied with just a few thousand gold coins.
That was why he had attached the ‘glittering Mithril’ chip to it. Even the Registrar of the apprentice Association in Crescent Town could recognize this chip.
As a small town, even the people of Township would recognize the motto of the Sorcerer Association’s President: “may magic be with you forever, and please do your best to assist the badge holder in all relevant matters.
Zhao Xu estimated that this message would probably be able to bring him a loan limit of 30000 gold coins.
Sigh, he was still poor.
Zhao Xu finally understood the difference between having fixed assets and disposable cash flow.
The main thing was that if they rushed to the local wizard Association now, they would have closed down long ago. They could still make it in time for the disaster that was going to happen in a few hours.
The moment they appeared, every second counted. Whoever could enter the mysterious building that stored the Holy breath earlier would have a completely different meaning.
After a while, salazi ran back with a red face, panting heavily, almost out of breath.
Zhao Xu found it a little strange. His Mithril sparkle didn’t have to be this powerful, right?
Previously, the clerk in Crescent Town had only intended to give him a bag of local specialties, so he shouldn’t have such a strong ability to cash in.
Salazi’s expression was very serious, but he was trying his best to put on a fawning expression as he looked at Zhao Xu.
mage zhongxia, you’re treating us like outsiders. During the day, you just need to show us this badge and chip, and we’ll naturally arrange for you to be treated as a VIP tonight.
As he spoke, he also secretly scolded himself for choosing a carriage for transporting goods when he was driving the carriage for the two of them. He didn’t specially choose the expensive and comfortable carriage that was specially used to entertain distinguished guests.
Oh, it seems that my chip is still of some use. Zhao Xu laughed at himself.
He naturally knew that he would be treated as a distinguished guest. No matter how small Starfall town was, he would still be a middle-level officer in the wizard Association branch of the northern Alliance.
The problem was, if he showed the chip to the public, the wizard Association in the city would receive the news within half a day.
Zhao Xu had his own plans, so he didn’t want to be disturbed.
In other words, he, who had just obtained five brass treasure chests, did not want to be noticed by the advanced mages for the time being.
He had no other choice but to take it out now.
When the sun rose and the news was spread …
He had already gone to the crash site to join in the fun. If he were to appear again, he would definitely be reporting to the branch of the magic Association in the capital of the Alliance. Naturally, none of this would fall on him.
The arrangements and management of this journey could also be considered a test for the new presidents of the Association, especially since the position of President of fallen star Lake was now vacant. The meaning behind this was self-evident.
“No, no, mage zhongxia.” The guide salazy smiled fawningly.
“you’re new here, so you don’t know you have a fortune under your name.”
“wealth?”
Zhao Xu immediately had a few speculations in his mind.
The happiest thing in life was that there was still a large amount of money in a bank card that was about to be closed.
“Yes, I am.” salazi then respectfully handed over a piece of parchment and his badge chip, saying, ” mage zhongxia, you have a share-sharing account with the mining association of starfall town in the northern alliance under your name. the parchment contains the details of your account. ”
“I’ve already deposited a sum of money last month, about 50000 gold coins. Now, in two months, we have a total of 100000 gold.”
