Our family is in decline

But there is no point. He is not an antique collector. He came here to rely on his archaeological knowledge and sensitivity to extraordinary objects.

But now it seems that I have thought too much. Really good things cannot appear in these places. After all, no one is a fool.

Disappointed, the so-called [Rat Street Treasure] is just a lie compiled by the merchants here~

But Lance did see a lot of strange things here, and his knowledge increased a lot.

After letting go of his utilitarianism, he was not in a hurry, but slowly started shopping, trying to use his knowledge to identify antiques and antiquities, and at the same time, he also had a general understanding of the market conditions.

Until he was affected by a sudden inspiration and unconsciously looked at a corner of the street. A carriage decorated in an obvious foreign style opened a shed from the side, with a dazzling but weird product placed on it.

There was a woman sitting inside, who seemed to be the owner of the truck.

Lance moved closer, but his eyes did not leave her.

The woman looks to be in her twenties, with thick black hair, a red scarf tied on her forehead to comb her long hair, and two huge golden earrings. The clothes and decorations on her body look very dignified and complicated. There are obvious alien characteristics.

Her skin color is a little darker than the people here in the empire, like a tanned brown, but her facial features are very delicate, and after being used to seeing ordinary women, she is still very eye-catching at a glance.

But compared to the person, what attracted Lance's attention more was the ornament on her right shoulder, which exuded the power to inspire him.

Not only that, the bracelets and rings on her hands and the crystal ball in front of her are also extraordinary equipment.

What was even more exaggerated was that he also felt a strange power in the carriage.

You can still explain it if you only have one or two, but when these things appear on one person at the same time, the impact on Lance will be too great.

The extraordinary items that were promised were hard to come by, but why did it feel like they were instantly ruined?

"Hello guest, do you need anything?"

The woman's voice drew Lance's attention back, and his eyes scanned the goods on display.

There were shrunken animal bones, fist-sized skulls of unknown creatures, exquisite boxes, various bottles and jars, and unnamed herbs.

It looks intimidating, but just like those stalls, you’ll be convinced at first sight.

"I want to see really good stuff, and money is no object."

Lance didn't bother to talk nonsense to her, so he went straight to the point and threw a bag. During the collision, the contents inside were scattered out, and they were all golden coins.

There’s no better stepping stone than gold coins, and if there’s one, more gold coins.

When the woman saw this, she couldn't help but smile on her face. She raised her head and looked at the visitor. Of course, the look in her eyes seemed to be looking at the wrongdoer.

"Guest, you're here just in time. I have two good things." As she said this, she took out a small box from somewhere under the shelf, opened it and placed two strange jewelry inside.

It is a thumb-sized square with a circular bulge on each side, and there are blood-red cross grooves on the convex side.

The other piece is a miniature human skull the size of a quail egg. The eye sockets were sealed with something unknown, but the eyes were repainted. Metal nails were attached to the skull to connect it to a necklace.

"introduce."

Lance could feel something special from these two items, but he didn't know how they were made, and the aura revealed in them made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"The [Life Magic Stone], one of the twelve magic stones created by the legendary alchemist Hermes, can enhance physical fitness when worn on the body.

The [Evil-Avoiding Pendant] made by the barbarian tribes in the misty mountains can resist some negative energy acting on you. "

The woman praised the goods in her hands and tried her best to recommend her goods to Lance.

But when Lance looked at the specially treated skull, it didn't look like it could ward off evil spirits.

"I want to see."

Lance reached out and picked up the [Life Magic Stone]. Indeed, he could feel the blood flowing in his body the moment he took it. There was no problem with what she said about enhancing vitality.

But she didn't mention that this thing had any side effects. Lance knew his body very well, and his previously sensitive nerve responses had slowed down.

Lance didn't speak and turned to the [Evil Pendant], but he didn't feel any obvious effect and didn't know how it worked.

But the negative effect is very obvious. The muscles become stiff. If the enemy cuts at you, it will be difficult to dodge even if you react.

Forehead……

His fighting method is to fight for reaction speed. In terms of vitality, he can instantly fill it up with [Flesh and Flesh Reconstruction]. As for avoiding evil... Let's not talk about his own [protection]. Even if he encounters it, it will be the evil that avoids him.

These are of no use to him, and as for Disma, they are not applicable at all. The vitality increased by wearing this thing is not as good as strengthening it with his blessing, and there are no sequelae.

But in the final analysis, it is still an extraordinary item, and it can still be used for collection and research.

"What's the price?"

"Two thousand one."

"Come to me if you have anything good." Lance put the things back and packed his money bag.

When the woman saw that this was not possible, she immediately held down the purse with one hand and said, "This is a good thing. I won't sell it to ordinary people..."

But mid-sentence, the woman's expression suddenly changed. The hand that was originally holding the purse turned to touch Lance's hand. She ignored the gold coins and looked at the ring in surprise.

"What are you doing? Let go." Lance took out his hand and looked at the woman with a strange expression.

"Where did you find this?"

The woman herself realized something and couldn't help but ask with a smile, but her eyes were always on the ring.

"Why should I tell you?" Lance didn't know why she was so interested in [Family Seal Ring], but he had no obligation to explain to her.

"You will gain the friendship of the Roma people." The woman's upright figure, her hands folded in a posture, and the crystal ball in front of her did have a special sense of ritual.

Lance stopped suddenly. He knew the origin of the Roma people.

A cosmopolitan wandering people, "Roma" means "people" in their language system, and they call themselves Roma in other people's ears.

The Roma people usually do not have much involvement with the local area, but they have remained relatively independent and mysterious despite their wanderings for thousands of years.

This is the situation about the Roma people in Lance's memory, but now it seems that they are not that simple.

"Why do you want to know the origin of this ring?"

"Because it's related to a prophecy."
