Chapter 6749
: Strange Objects on the Seabed
Two more wizards chose an item each.
These wizards have lived in the chaotic star sea for a long time and have studied all kinds of items. It is impossible for them to buy them randomly.
Tang Zhen was also very curious about what special effects these strange objects from the bottom of the sea had.
Just at this moment, two more shuttles returned to the deck, and it seemed that they were fully loaded.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the two adventurers came to the table and displayed their gains.
The items that exuded a fishy smell attracted everyone's attention, and they tried to determine their value and origin as quickly as possible.
Being able to quickly identify items is an important skill that allows merchants to gain more profits.
Among this pile of items, there was an ancient silver-gray statue that attracted everyone's inquiring eyes.
There are various runes on its surface, releasing a strange aura. You can tell at first glance that it is not an ordinary object.
"I want this."
"how much is it?"
The two wizards spoke at the same time, asking the adventurer, and it was obvious that they both planned to buy the statue.
The merchants who were watching saw this and secretly felt sorry for it, knowing that they would never get the item.
When merchants compete with wizards, they often fail and withdraw, simply because merchants care about profits and must consider costs and whether they can make money after buying.
If the price exceeds your expectations, you can only give up.
Wizards are different. They are not businessmen and do not need to consider transaction costs.
You can buy what you want at a higher price and bid without hesitation.
If they think it's worth it, they will pay for it without hesitation.
The adventurer was secretly delighted and quoted a price that he would never regret. It was normal to ask for a higher price and then pay it back.
Under normal trading conditions, merchants will continue to bargain down the price until it reaches an acceptable level.
However, when trading with wizards, bargaining is rarely done, and most transactions are based on the price quoted by the adventurer.
The wizards also knew that the prices offered by the adventurers were inflated, but they would not bargain for it.
This is the wizard's style of doing things, using money to pressure people, and the effect is really great, which can save you from a lot of trouble.
If you bargain in public like a mercenary businessman, it would be an insult to the wizard's identity.
But then again, if you treat wizards as suckers, you will definitely pay a heavy price.
You may appear safe and sound on the surface, but you will be retaliated against secretly and attacked by all kinds of strange means.
When that time really comes, life will be worse than death, and you will pay the price for your greed and ignorance.
Adventurers are aware of this and will control their greed and desires and will not easily do anything excessive.
However, if one has a backer and is not afraid of the wizard's threats, the price can be set higher.
When the two wizards heard the price, they didn't react at all, but looked at each other.
Both wizards could accept this price, but the problem was that both of them wanted to obtain it.
Perhaps there are more than just the two of them. Other wizards will also participate in the competition, but they are not in a hurry to make an offer.
In this situation, the one with the highest bid will naturally win.
Or two wizards can communicate and discuss with each other, and the one who obtains will compensate the other.
But no one can guarantee that there will not be wizards competing maliciously, whose real purpose is to defraud compensation.
Therefore, this kind of compensation behavior only occurs between acquaintances, and strangers often adopt a bidding approach.
The two wizards did not know each other, but they tacitly chose the bidding method. After a few rounds of negotiations, the price was more than twice the quoted price.
At this point, continuing to bid would be extremely irrational.
The adventurer was very happy. He certainly hoped to sell it at a higher price, but he was also worried that the competition would be too fierce and he would get into trouble.
Judging from the attitudes of these two wizards, they obviously do not want to give up the fight. They look at each other and continue bidding.
Tang Zhen was watching from the side and also observing the statue, and found that this thing was indeed not an ordinary item.
But as he continued to observe, he revealed a strange expression and glanced at the two wizards who continued to bid.
If it was a good thing, there would be no problem fighting for it. But inside this item, there was an evil spirit sealed, and it was too obscure to be identified.
Tang Zhen's spiritual awareness is extremely powerful, far beyond that of ordinary practitioners, so he can discover the hidden danger.
Besides, Tang Zhen could also make out some runes on the surface of the statue, which were obviously related to death and curse.
If you buy this thing, you will probably be plagued by bad luck, and you will be in big trouble if you don't handle it carefully.
Tang Zhen seriously suspected that this thing should be related to the evil god and belong to that ancient barbaric god system.
This kind of primitive gods are often barbaric and cruel. They don't like to form cliques, but instead make enemies and cause trouble everywhere.
Believers are of the same character, stirring up trouble everywhere, acting on their own whims, and attacking without provocation.
Being the source of trouble, he is naturally hated by others.
The wizard world and the tower city world do have one thing in common: they both like to hunt these wild gods.
Just like hunters surrounding and killing wild beasts, by hunting this kind of wild gods, they can obtain the resources and world controlled by the other party.
Legend has it that a great war once took place in the chaotic star sea, and many gods fell there.
Perhaps this item is something related to it, and the sealed evil spirit is likely to be a believer in God.
Tang Zhen was also interested in this kind of items, but he had no intention of competing with others.
Objects that can be seen through at a glance are not worth his attention at all. It is better for him to just be a quiet spectator.
After a fierce competition between the two wizards, there was finally a result. One of the wizards bought it at three times the price.
The adventurer's face was filled with joy, as this transaction price was far beyond his expectations and could help him acquire a lot of additional training resources.
It’s a pity that the wizards didn’t like the other items, otherwise they would have been able to gain more benefits.
Tang Zhen looked around and finally understood the origins of these items. They should have come from different divine kingdoms and small worlds.
The object carries the aura of otherworldly rules, which repel each other from this strange sea, but is suppressed to the bottom of the sea by a powerful force.
Normally, they are hidden on the seabed and cannot float to the surface of the sea at all. However, when a large ship passes by, the sea water will be affected, and the objects hidden in the sea will take the opportunity to float to the surface of the sea.
The objects followed the ship in order to stay on the sea surface and find a way to escape from the suppression and restraint.
Objects floating on the sea surface cannot last long and will eventually sink to the bottom of the sea.
The various actions of the adventurers actually provided some opportunities for the evil spirits trapped in the sea to escape.
The wizards may have already known this secret, but it will not affect the treasure hunt.
Putting aside the danger, these items are indeed extremely valuable and can be produced in an endless supply.
No spiritual practice organization would ever give up this resource producing area, and continued exploration and collection is inevitable.
Since this matter is risky, it is left to adventurers to operate, and wizards hide behind to make more profits.
The auction house in the ferry town and various related industries are all controlled by wizards.
The cost of the expedition also includes the cost of the ship's fare and various other expenses.
Tang Zhen could see clearly that on the giant ship there was a shuttle repair workshop, a hospital for practitioners, and shops selling various equipment and elixirs.
Earn money at sea and spend it at sea, and take it home when you leave. If anyone says again that wizards don't know how to run businesses and make money, you must bring him to the Star Sea Ferry to have a look.
After satisfying his curiosity, Tang Zhen planned to return to his exclusive room to continue practicing various wizard spells.
Just as he was about to turn around and go back, he was stopped by two wizards.
The other party made a gesture, which was a common greeting etiquette among wizards, to show that he meant no harm.
After Tang Zhen returned the gift, he waited for the other party to explain the reason.
The two wizards invited Tang Zhen to participate in the guest room trade fair, which was expected to be held in five hours.
The guest room trade fair uses the guest room as a trading venue, with various items placed on the bedside table.
Participants can go to different rooms to look for the items they want, and they can also temporarily rent an area to display the items they want to trade.
After asking about the location of the room, Tang Zhen nodded and said that he would definitely go there when the time came.
