The Beginning of Panlong: In the Name of the Father

Chapter 42 Manto City

Manto City is the border between the Magnolia Empire and the Warcraft Mountains.

A small town that is not too big, but extremely prosperous.

Because the location of Manto City is exactly the most suitable place for the Magnolia Empire to enter and exit the Warcraft Mountains. Here, the Warcraft Mountains extend a flat road, facing the west gate of Manto City.

Every day, adventurers enter the Warcraft Mountains from here, and at the same time, slightly fewer adventurers return to Manto City.

It's not even limited to the east side of the Warcraft Mountains. Occasionally, strong men from the Holy Alliance and Dark Alliance enter the Warcraft Mountains and enter the Manto City.

The prosperity of Manto City is supported by adventurers.

Adventurers sell loot, buy supplies, and more importantly, consume and enjoy themselves, forming a bustling area.

But on this day, a warrior who was obviously not a local, obviously foreign in appearance, and wearing shabby and tattered robes came from the Warcraft Mountains.

Although his robes were as tattered as a beggar's, no one dared to look down upon him.

This is not just because of the intimidating power of the white snow wolf beside this warrior, nor is it just because of the broken knife on his back.

Manto City is a place where adventurers gather. Anyone who seems to be down and out may be a powerful warrior or magician.

Maybe a beggar-like guy could turn over his hand and find an eighth-level magic crystal core.The 'rich' people here are the most secretive.

This shabby beggar was none other than Hogg.

After entering Manto City, the first thing Hogg did was find a hotel, book a room, and then take a quick shower.

When the fatigue was gone, Hogg relaxed and walked on the streets of Manto City.

"The customs and customs of the Magnolia Empire are really different from those of the Holy Alliance." Hogg led Snow Wolf Xiaobai with a rope and looked around.

There is still a big difference between the customs and customs of the Magnolia Empire and the Holy Alliance.

In terms of character, the people of the Magnolia Empire are gentler and softer. To put it negatively, they are more cowardly and have a greater fear of the nobles.

Minor nobles such as barons and viscounts have a higher status than seventh-level warriors.

If he were in the Holy Alliance, a young baron like Hogg would not dare to speak loudly when facing a seventh-level warrior.Of course, the gold content of the baron in the kingdom is far less than that of the baron in the empire.

The real aristocracy of the Holy Alliance is actually the Holy See of Light, and the strength of the nobility is far inferior to that of the Magnolia Empire.

This was also reflected in the clothing aspect. As the oldest and richest country, even the clothing of ordinary residents of the Magnolia Empire was considered troublesome in Hogg's eyes.

As for the aristocratic costumes here, they are even more cumbersome.Hogg's family also has several sets of traditional aristocratic formal clothes, but they are inferior to the daily clothes of some minor nobles here.

In fact, this Manto City is already considered a place where the aristocratic atmosphere is not strong.There are a lot of strong people who hunt and kill Warcraft, and the pragmatic atmosphere (compared to other places in the Magnolia Empire) is relatively strong.

But what really satisfied Hogg was his diet.

The food in Magnolia Empire tastes hot, which may be related to the relatively humid weather here.The fiery chili peppers also gave Hogg a good taste. He was also thinking about buying some seasonings to take back home to share with his wife and children.

Of course, Hogg didn't really come to travel, but he didn't forget his most important purpose.

His purpose in coming to Manto City was very simple. He wanted to deal with the large amount of Warcraft resources he had obtained in advance.

Last time, this was done in the capital of the Principality of Ligaode.

However, the situation was different this time. He also wanted to find it difficult to "sell stolen goods" in the Principality of Ligaode.

It's not that it can't be sold, but if the materials of the ninth-level monster are sold in the Principality of Ridgau, the probability of causing a disturbance is very high, which goes against Hogg's idea of ​​keeping a low profile.In addition, he was chased by the Holy Black Dragon all the way to the easternmost part of the Warcraft Mountains, close to the territory of the Magnolia Empire, so Hogg simply came to Manto City to process these Warcraft materials here.

The business in Manto City is very developed, especially the industry that deals with Warcraft materials.

According to Hogg's observation, even materials for level [-] magic beasts are occasionally sold in Manto City, and selling some level [-] magic crystal cores is inconspicuous.

After resting for a few days, Hogg used his boxing skills to slightly change his body shape and appearance, and then sold his harvest in batches.

Hogg spent nearly half a year in the Warcraft Mountains this time, but his gains were much greater than the first time he entered the Warcraft Mountains.

Three level [-] monsters died under his sword alone, and even more level [-] monsters.

Generally speaking, the price of the ninth-level magic crystal core is 500 million gold coins, and the actual selling price will only be higher.The eighth-level magic crystal core is almost 50 gold coins.

According to the most conservative estimates, if the crystal cores and other materials of these three level nine monsters are sold, they can definitely be exchanged for more than 2000 million gold coins. This has already surpassed the most expensive stone sculpture in the history of Yulan Continent, the blood-eyed maned lion Hoover. The auction price of the Master's 'Blood Eyed Maned Lion'.

Not to mention the crystal core of the Holy World Warcraft, this is truly a sky-high price, priceless is by no means a description.It is even said that exchanging a sacred World of Warcraft crystal core for a principality is definitely a losing deal.

Of course, Hogg has no intention of selling the Holy Domain Demonic Crystal Core.

The holy magic crystal core is too eye-catching, and Hogg will easily attract the attention of interested people if he sells it.

However, for level [-] and level [-] Warcraft materials, it is not a big problem to control the quantity and sell them in batches.

Hogg also went to each business and shop. Today he sold the materials for two level eight monsters, and tomorrow he found an auction house to sell the nine-level magic crystal cores.

Every time before selling Warcraft materials, he deliberately changed his appearance and body shape.Although it is rather cumbersome, it is not too inconspicuous to sell Warcraft materials bit by bit like this.

After more than half a month, Hogg sold more than 20 level 3000 magic crystal cores, level [-] magic crystal cores, and a large number of scattered level [-] magic crystal cores and various materials. .In exchange for [-] million gold coins.

However, Hogg will not keep so many gold coins in his family's vault, but will spend them in exchange for resources that can improve his own strength or his family's heritage.

For example, the precious top-level fighting spirit book.

Such as magic scrolls.

3000 million gold coins, this gold coin is enough for a ninth-level expert who dares not take risks to earn a lifetime.Although Hogg was just as cautious when spending the gold coins, the flow of such gold coins into the market would naturally cause fluctuations.

For a time, the price of magic scrolls on the market rose.

Fortunately, there are so many magicians in the Magnolia Empire that these scrolls can still be purchased.

After some shopping, Hogg was planning to return to Wushan Town.

However, in a store that purchased Warcraft materials, I received an invitation letter.

"Dear Sir, this Chamber of Commerce sincerely invites you to participate in the auction to be held in three days." The store manager, a chubby middle-aged man, said with a smile.

He had just accepted a batch of magic crystal cores from Hogg at the price of 80 gold coins, and then placed an unnamed magic crystal card in Hogg's hand.

Hogg did not refuse immediately and put away the magic crystal card and invitation letter, but he had no interest in the auction.

Until he saw the grand finale in the auction brochure.

A hemogarnet the size of a fingernail.
