MTL - Start a Core Pod-Chapter 630 Taobao
When Duanmuhuai walked out of the healing room, his expression was full of despair.
After that, it took Duanmu Huai an entire hour to explain to the owner and staff of the Healing House that he was not a giant, nor a human with giant blood, but a normal ordinary person... The boss said I understand, but I am also sorry to tell him... His request cannot be satisfied for the time being.
This disappointed Duanmu Huai.
After spending so much money, it turned out to be a waste of time.
When Duanmuhuai returned to the previous meeting place, Kasim and Luoxia were waiting for him with Auggis.
"Ah, you are back, Mr. Duanmu."
"Well, did you have a good time?"
"Fortunately, we are not very familiar with Waterdeep City, we just wandered around here, uh... what did you do, Mr. Duanmu?"
"Oh, I went to take a shower."
Duanmuhuai raised his head, looked at the sky at forty-five degrees, and sighed silently.
"Taking a bath? It's true that I've been out in the wild these days... I want to take a bath too."
"Why don't you try it too?"
Looking at Kasim, Duanmuhuai suddenly changed his expression, revealing a strange smile.
"Although the place is a bit expensive, the service is quite attentive, and there is also massage service, which is enough to sweep away your fatigue during the journey."
"real?"
Hearing this, Kasim widened his eyes excitedly, and then looked at the girl beside him.
"Luo Xia, let's try it together later!"
"Okay! Kasim!"
Well, sure enough, when you are in a bad mood, you cheat people, and your mood is much better.
After returning, Augis climbed up on Duanmuhuai's shoulders and sat down on Duanmuhuai's shoulders - well, obviously this was already her fixed position.
"Where do we go next?"
"Next... let's go to Taobao."
"……Taobao?"
As a big city, Waterdeep City is still very popular with players. Although the level of civilization here is relatively low, there are indeed many good things in the magic item shops in big cities. Although the combat power in this world is relatively low, as I said before, there are quite a lot of auxiliary magic items, and there are many good ones...
For example, on Warrior Road in the Castle District, there are many good things in the weapon shop and armor shop here, even in Neverwinter City. After all, Waterdeep City has experienced several crises that were almost razed to the ground, and survived every time. And because of this, there are naturally many treasures for sale here.
Especially some armors and weapons, their strength is not too rare for big bosses, but too expensive for ordinary people to afford. It was just right for Kasim and Luoxia. After all, they had just received a large bounty from Lord Nasher. In Duanmu Huai's view, spending the money here to improve their chances of survival was the right way.
Sure enough, when Kasim and Roxia came to the weapon store and saw those expensive and powerful weapons and equipment, they couldn't walk right away. After Duanmu Huai threw the straight-eyed two people to Warrior Road, he turned around and went to Gem Street next to him, and came to a shop called "Balsol's Rare Treasures".
As the name suggests, this shop sells some rare and rare treasures. In the words of the game, the main items for sale are accessories such as rings, necklaces, or some magic props. For example, snuff bottles that can play music automatically... Well, to put it bluntly, it is a good place to buy souvenirs.
After all, Duanmuhuai still plans to bring some gifts back to others.
"Jingle Bell……"
Duanmuhuai stretched out his hand to push open the door, and soon, the doorbell rang crisply, and then Duanmuhuai and Augis walked into the shop, only to see a thin middle-aged man standing there listlessly behind the counter , Hearing the doorbell, he raised his head to look at Duanmuhuai, was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled.
"Ah, hello, dear guests, welcome to Rare Treasures, what would you like to buy?"
"I plan to buy some gifts for others, as well as for my own use, which are more useful and beautiful for daily use."
Duanmuhuai walked to the counter, glanced at the magic props and accessories placed around, and then spoke, while he reached out and put a handful of gold coins on the table.
"money is not a problem."
"Oh, sure."
Seeing the gold coins in front of him, the shopkeeper immediately knew that a big customer was coming, and his smile became brighter.
"Please feel free, whatever you want, just tell me."
"Well... then let me see..."
Duanmu Huai is naturally very familiar with the things sold here, so it's quick to buy. He first bought a shadow cloak for Mary. This is a cloak with invisibility. As long as you put on the cloak and read the trigger spell, it can be activated, making the wearer invisible for a certain period of time—— Well, for Mary, this is still very useful.
As for An and Guleya, Duanmuhuai bought them two rings with "advanced magic dispelling". Huai planned to buy two rings for them to go back, so that they could have more self-protection ability.
Of course, Duanmu Huai also bought some gifts for other people, most of them were rings or necklaces, and the spells inside were mostly for auxiliary purposes. After all, Duanmu Huai just wanted to give them a little fun, and didn't intend to make them rely too much on these magic items. You must know that these magic items are also magical... Well, a certain annoying two-headed monster might play tricks on them. indefinite.
Duanmuhuai is not afraid of spending money anyway, and the shop owner is rarely met with such a generous customer, so he is naturally smiling. After wrapping all the gifts requested by Duanmu Huai, the store manager hesitated for a moment, came to Duanmu Huai's side, glanced at Augis who was curiously looking at the accessories not far away, and then lowered his voice to Duanmu Huai. Huai said.
"My guest, to be honest, you and I hit it off right away. We hit it off very well."
"oh?"
"So... I have something special here, do you want to take a look?"
"oh?"
Hearing this, Duanmuhuai's eyes are also shining. In the game, if the player's charm is high, he can persuade the shopkeeper to offer some "not for sale". However, with his current charm value, Duanmuhuai has never thought about it, but now Seems like the same effect can be achieved if enough money is spent?
"Sure, where?"
"Behind, please follow me."
"Well...Augis, you stay here for a while, I'll be right back."
Duanmuhuai said something to Augis, who just nodded slightly, and then Duanmuhuai and the boss came to the inner room. Then Duanmuhuai saw the boss nimbly coming to a bookshelf, and then pressing the hidden switch next to it, then the bookshelf slowly slid open, and then a metal safe emerged inside. Then the boss carefully took out a key from his waist and inserted it in...
What is so precious? Do you want to sell me the artifact?
Seeing this, Duanmu Huai was also curious. After all, ordinary things must not be kept so secretive and tight. It must be something very valuable to make the boss so careful, but... the artifact should not be possible, no matter how powerful it is, it is just an ordinary rare treasure shop. Players who want to find artifacts or sub-artifacts usually go to slaughter Long Duobao is still relatively fast.
While Duanmuhuai was thinking, the boss opened the safe, then stretched out his hand, and carefully took out a large wrapped book from it. The book, which appeared to be as large as an Oxford dictionary, was wrapped in black magic cloth and wrapped in chains.
Uh... You wouldn't give me a Necronomicon, would you? If so, I'd turn around and leave right away.
Of course the boss didn't know Duanmuhuai's inner slander at this moment, he carefully put the book on the table, then opened the chain, and slowly and carefully removed the black cloth wrapped around the big book—— Then, what appeared in front of Duanmuhuai was...a large book with a pink cover, shining faintly, and strange patterns emerging on it.
Just reading this book made Duanmu Huai's heart skip a beat.
"Boss, could this be the legendary fan..."
"That's right, you really know the stuff, this is the Pink Book!"
"Gulu..."
Duanmu Huai didn't speak, but from his straight eyes and swallowing saliva, we can see the charm of this book.
A long time ago, a man named Abdullah Alhazad wrote a "Book of the Dead", in which he explained in detail the old seals, the Outer Gods and other gods, and even recorded many curses. Wen-this is the ultimate witchcraft book of the Cthulhu Mythos system-well, here we go.
In fact, it’s not bad. The so-called Pink Book is similar in content to the Necronomicon. It records some kind of creatures from the outer plane, as well as various spells and magical spells—as long as they are For pleasure.
That's right, that's why this book is called "The Pink Book". Like the "Necronomicon", it is a forbidden book-of course, the two are in completely different senses.
After reading the "Necronomicon", you can only gain the indescribable despair and collapse.
After reading "The Pink Book", you will experience unprecedented joy and happiness.
Um………
Duanmuhuai raised his head, and once again looked at the shopkeeper's skinny body as if he had taken drugs.
... He seems to understand.
"Are you going to sell me this book?"
"Yes, honored guest, as you can see, I have...been unable to do what I want, and you...are young and strong, and since you know the pink book, it means that you are also a member of my generation, and will be happy The responsibility to spread happiness to the world is left to you."
Listening to the shopkeeper's tearful explanation, and seeing his thin hands pressing on his waist, Duanmuhuai was immediately in awe. He looked at the great book of love and dreams in front of him, was silent for a moment, then looked at the shopkeeper, and made a decision.
"I bought it!"
