Chapter 91 Missing Books, Zerikan Female Slave

Hear Rebecca's voice.

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

It is not so much a street as it is a stall market.

Nearly every vacant lot in sight is occupied by stalls of all kinds.

Garrison troops in light armor and holding halberds patrolled the market.

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

Compared to those big business houses, Crooked Bones Market is more popular with adventurers.

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

This feature reminded Chen Xuan of a flea market.

Due to the low threshold for setting up a stall, and the goods sold come from different sources.

Among them are various unknown items produced by ancient ruins.

This makes it a famous "Taobao" place in the city of Magatan.

Most of the people who linger here are cash-strapped guys.

Looking around, you can see groups of halflings everywhere, dwarves drinking strong wine, troglodytes with lizard heads and scales all over their bodies, and even Dax lobstermen from the distant marsh ocean...

Those lobstermen are two meters tall, and they look like a big lobster walking upright.

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

It is rare to see this kind of ethnic group living in the swamp and the ocean in Magtan City.

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

Chen Xuan's first thought 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 sold here are also cheaper than those sold in commercial shops.

Of course, if you want to gain something in Crooked Bones Street, you must have a smart mind and a shrewd vision.

This is also the reason why Chen Xuan and the cat girl came here from the west area.

[Insight] The effect of the ability can help him overcome obstacles here!

After entering the market, it seems to have come to another world.

The sounds of yelling, insulting and bargaining are all in the ear.

The air is stale and foul, and every stink you can imagine can be smelled here.

After a casual glance, most of the stalls in the entrance area still mainly focus on monster materials.

There are all kinds of grotesque fur, sharp claws, and bones.

There was even a large string of dried Goblin X-tools hanging from one booth.

It is said that if you stew these ghost things and eat them, you will get a strong lust and physical strength comparable to goblins.

Several highland savages with grass skirts around their waists, who looked like upright brown bears, were negotiating prices in front of the booth.

Those bells and whistles were obviously not among Mr. Chen's purchasing goals.

Fortunately, after walking along the crooked bone market for a while, the master and servant finally passed through the "material stall area" and entered the "ancient relics and crypt product area".

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

The "catacombs" are tower-type and relic-type catacombs.

Different from common crypts, these two types of monster crypts will evolve and reproduce some relics and sacrificial fields from the monster world, and some strange items will appear in them.

This is also the main place where "Taobao customers" hang out.

Most of the commodities placed on the stalls are still covered with hardened dirt.

Broken figurines, broken swords, shields, and unknown parts abound.

Who knows where these things are dug up from.

Standing in front of a booth, Chen Xuan glanced at the things placed on it.

Immediately, lines of golden subtitles appeared in my mind
[A rune sword that has decayed in battles and years, from the 700-year-old Makanha armored dwarf swordsman]

……

[Severely worn magic puppet parts]

……

[The fecal fossil left by an ancient soldier]

……

【Old Alchemy Glass】

……

Chen Xuan pouted, the so-called ancient relics on the booth were basically rubbish.

But he didn't give up, and activated [Insight] while walking to scan every stall in front of him.

Kitten girl Rebecca is also looking at it with great interest.

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

……

After more than ten minutes, Chen Xuan sighed leisurely.

Don't even think about missing something.

The so-called ancient relics sold here are basically from an ancient mountain battlefield around the city of Magtan, which was a battle more than 2000 years ago.

It is not the product of ancient tombs or large civilization relics.

Therefore, what can be dug there is some garbage, which belongs to the waste products on the battlefield.

But Chen Xuan also discovered that there are still many people who are buying ancient "waste".

And it's like buying a lottery ticket, picking and choosing, trying to get good luck.

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

Someone also found a gold-level frost-type magic gemstone in a statue wrapped in a soil shell.

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

After Chen Xuan's "insight" "scanning", it can be confirmed that there are no good goods hidden in today's ancient relics.

But when he came to the booth of the Catacomb Products, he suddenly saw a very familiar mark on a broken stone slab.

It was a broken slate the size of a palm, with unknown characters the size of a mung bean engraved on it.

There is also a carving of a 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 with both eyes, the golden hint made his eyes jump.

[The incomplete slate recording the monster shuttle ritual]

[The content is as follows: The mighty power divided into billions has opened up countless passages...The descendants of magic power cross...Isolate...Suck...Naroya...]

……

He knelt down and picked up the slate.

His fingers stroked the engraving of the rose key, which was only half left.

Some guesses arose in my heart.

Putting down the slate, he touched his forehead unconsciously.

Except for this stone slab, other items on the booth are also waste products.

Even the greatest value of the slate itself is only the unknown characters written on it.

The aborigines of Naloa can't read it, but [Insight] can do it.

Without stopping, he walked forward.

Not far away are all kinds of book stalls.

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

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

Ordinary books don't pay so much attention.

Moreover, many books do not even know who the author is, and there are a large number of bibliographical copies for no reason.

All kinds of poetry and novels occupy the mainstream position of the bookstall.

Chen Xuan is going to buy a few books similar to geography here and take them back to have a look.

When he was carefully selecting, there was an angry curse from another booth not far behind him.

"Damn profiteers!"

"This is what you said is a fine book from the Daklunbang City Library!"

"The heart of the book has been eaten away by booklice!"

"Barely only a small half of the content can be seen!"

"Refund!"

I saw a bearded dwarf warrior waving a book angrily.

Jumping 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've already read half of the content..."

"So I can only refund you ten crowns."

"No! At least twenty crowns!"

……

Listening to their noise, Chen Xuan glanced at the book in the dwarf's hand.

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

[A copy of "Romanni's Love and Adventures" comes from the old books of the library in Dakron State City. After nineteen owners, there is a page of undead magic book that is regarded as taboo under the cover. Hands of the No.14 masters of this book years ago]

……

"Oh? Undead magic pages?"

Chen Xuan immediately became interested.

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

The spellcasters mainly use the magic of the major elements, supplemented by powers such as shadow, holy light, and nature.

Originally, he thought that there was no undead magic in the Naloa Continent, and he thought that when the magic attainment was 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 it is not that Naroya does not have undead magic, but has long regarded it as a taboo.

The specific reason is unknown to Chen Xuan, but this taboo can be upheld and carried out, it must be something happened to the undead magic that made the natives of Naloa fearful.

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 a dozen black iron coins and left cursingly.

He took the opportunity to walk to the booth.

Picking up the book "Romanni's Adventures in Love", he flipped through a few pages decently.

"how much does this book cost?"

"This is an excellent book from the Daklun State City Library, the minimum is thirty crowns..."

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

"Damn dwarf, long life and good health to all his enemies!"

"Deal, this book is yours, but I will not accept returns!"

"no problem."

Chen Xuan took out a small handful of black iron coins to trade.

After clearing the money and goods, he quickly got up and left.

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

Because all the books with the word "love" are out-and-out pornographic books, with a lot of indescribable plots in them, and there is no such restriction in Naroya Continent.

The authors are all daring and shameless, and the plots described are quite obscene.

Therefore, such books have become vulgar pastime books that adventurers often take to the wild to pass the time.

Chen Xuan just turned a few pages and saw at least ten meaty scenes.

But he still just laughed without saying a word, without explaining too much.

Immediately afterwards, the master and servant selected a few books on common sense.

Not long after, there were more books in Catwoman's hands: "Grand View of Naloa", "Illustrated Book of Weaknesses of Monsters", "The Adventure Diary of Legendary Adventurer Angus Fasser" and so on.

The crooked bone market has a large scale, and there is a small square in the central area.

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

Both were attracted by the lively yelling in the square.

"Rare to see! Hard to see!"

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

"The next auction is a treasure!"

"Zerikhan twin slave girls from the far east!"

As soon as these words came out, the adventurers onlookers suddenly became overwhelmed and whistled loudly.

"Presumably everyone knows that in the Serikania Desert in the extreme east of Naroa, there is a mysterious kingdom of Zerikan in the southeast of the Blue Ridge Mountains."

"That is the homeland of the Gobi Monster, which has bred countless creatures as terrifying as it."

"The women of Zerikhan are born wild warriors and superb swordsmen!"

"They can complete the process from drawing the knife to chopping off your dick within two breaths!"

The host's eloquence was excellent, mixed with wisecracks, which made the big bosses at the scene "haha" laugh.

……

There is actually a slave auction being held in the square.

Because of the widespread existence of contracts, the vile slave hunting and trading activities were once very rampant.

The rampant slave trade was not curbed until the multi-ethnic alliance clearly announced that the behavior of wantonly capturing and selling slaves within its jurisdiction would be severely sanctioned, and decisive countermeasures were taken.

The private master-servant relationship between Chen Xuan and Rebecca is also common in Naroya.

It's just that they basically have a clear number of years.

At the beginning, the cat girl chose to use a three-year servant contract with various restrictions in exchange for a chance to survive.

It's just that I didn't expect Chen Xuan to modify the contract.

In any place in Naroa, this kind of contract to pay for life is not uncommon.

The terms of the two-way restriction make both the master and the servant must abide by the bottom line.

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

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

To obtain a legal license, a treaty must be signed to swear to abide by the restrictions on slavery in the jurisdiction.

In such a big environment, slave traders would always choose those ethnicities that were not multi-ethnic alliances to capture.

Most of those marginalized ethnic groups live in poor areas.

Zerikhan is one of them.

It is famous for oriental alchemy and desert, and there are many violent monsters inhabiting it.

It is one of the few areas where local monsters can stabilize the monsters in the crypt.

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

The knife is like their third arm.

Therefore, Zerikhan's female slaves are very popular and suitable for guarding.

Correspondingly, the price that the slave hunting team has to pay has also risen.

There might not be a single Zerikan slave in Magtan for years, so the crowd was excited.

The lively atmosphere also illustrates this point.

Chen Xuan, who was just passing by, couldn't move his eyes anymore after taking a look from a distance.

He just pulled Rebecca from the side and squeezed into the side of the auction room.

On the field were two young women with dark hair and brown skin, each wearing a loose cloth robe and tied to a wooden stake.

They lowered their heads, their black hair covering most of their tattooed faces.

Chen Xuan on the sidelines was excited and his eyes were wide open!
Because the faces of the two women on the stage were all blue star standard oriental faces.

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

More like the appearance and style of Mongolia near Central Asia!

Coupled with the facial tattoos with obvious clan characteristics, the two Zerikan women looked very strange.

The kitten girl Rebecca was a little surprised at first, and didn't understand why the owner was so excited.

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

This was the first time she had seen a Zerikan, and now it seemed that the two slave girls and their master had some similarities in appearance and style!
"Are you going to the auction?"

Hearing her question, Chen Xuan nodded first, then shook his head.

"Look at the situation first."

"They are not from my hometown."

"It's just a coincidence."

At this moment, he has already regained his composure.

There is still a big difference between Zerikan and Blue Star's Easterners.

The first is the skin color, the former is a darker wheat color, and the latter is a pale yellow.

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

There is no trace of the characteristics of Blue Star's oriental culture in his body.

This made Chen Xuan, who thought he was seeing fellow villagers, the surprise in his heart quickly returned to calm.

But he was still interested in the Zerikan.

Be prepared to decide whether to participate in the auction at your own discretion.

　If nothing else, there will be another chapter tonight.
