the last king of darkness

Chapter 66 Free Lunch

First of all, the channel dealer Annabel gave him ignored him, and all the letters and passwords were never answered.

According to her, this is also normal. Traffickers are constantly being searched and arrested by the sheriff, and will disappear when the wind blows.

Rhodes could only go to a businessman he was not familiar with.

However, after learning about Rhodes' situation, their general asking prices are very high, which has exceeded the limit that Rhodes can bear. The key is that success is not guaranteed, and some are obviously liars.

Rhodes searched for many people in succession without success.

Until a strange guy he met.

Hublin was in a lot of pain during this time.

The dream college life brought him no joy, only great frustration.

As the most favored eldest son of the ancient Manolobana family, before entering the academy, Hablin has always been willing to follow the wind and the rain.

No one dared to defy him. He could do whatever he wanted. In his manor, there were more than 300 servants who served him. Anyone he liked would appear on his bed at night.

But in college, everything changed.

The privilege is gone, the house slaves cannot be brought in, the teacher does not flatter him, and the director does not favor him.

Although he gained the position of team leader through power and money, he didn't have much prestige.

Manolo Bana's identity is invalid here. Although the students are afraid of him, they don't treat him as their master, and the female students don't pay much attention to him. He showed love, but was severely punished twice for harassment, bullying and other reasons.

What disgusted him the most was that someone insulted him face to face, but he couldn't punish the other party, instead he was beaten violently by the other party.

But in the end, it was himself who was punished and put into confinement!

This blew Hublin's eggs.

Therefore, when he found out that this guy was likely to win the first-class "Golden Worth Star" medal, he immediately instructed his only younger brothers, Alger and Gorey, to contact the chief judge.

Sure enough, after bypassing the academy, Manolobana's name showed its magical power again, and the chief judge promised to give Rhodes a math problem that he would never forget, ensuring that he would not get the first-class medal.

Hublin thought he was having fun at last, but he didn't expect that country bumpkin to answer this bible-like problem, and successfully became the only winner of the first-class medal of the Third Academy.

In the following celebration, Hublin was so angry that he only ate a roasted cow and lost his appetite.

He had already planned to drop out of school, he couldn't stay in this hellish place anymore, those guys who praised the college as a paradise were all liars.

But on the third day, the turning point came.

His father sent him a letter, asking him to find a way to sell a second-level hunter's license to Rhodes, and told him not to do it by himself.

As the eldest son of the Manolobana family, Hublin quickly understood what his father meant.

He wanted to make Rhodes bad luck.

Level [-] hunters have hunter responsibilities, and there are additional tasks every week. If you don't complete them, you will be downgraded or your hunter license will be revoked.

And with the strength of that country bumpkin, the mission will definitely fail. At that time, he will not only lose face greatly, but may also be expelled from the academy for killing his teammates.

Hublin finally became happy and felt hopeful in life.

His unlucky experience in the college started when he met this country bumpkin. Once he got out, his life might be bright again, and Kashan would fall into his arms, and countless female students would not Will decline his invitation again.

Hublin laughed. He even had a brilliant idea. After being expelled, this country bumpkin must be poor and living on the streets. He will reward him with a bowl of food and hire him to be his personal servant. He guarded the bedroom door, which made him deeply feel the feeling of his beloved woman having sex with him.

This thought made him so excited that he couldn't sleep well all night, and he changed into a disguise early the next morning, took his license and set off for the market area.

He skipped all the classes this day, lest some blind mentally retarded person steal his business.

Channel dealers all have formal businesses in the market area, and they don’t do many hunter licenses in the academy. Most of them are dropouts outside the academy, combatants who have committed crimes and were expelled from the legion, or some A guy who doesn't want to be named to make some extra money.

But the list in the college is much more lucrative, and those who are willing to go this way are not short of money.

But there is also a certain risk. If something happens to the students, they will be approached by the Internal Affairs Tribunal.

Therefore, generally they only serve as regular customers, or are introduced by regular customers. If the trainee is one-year, they will charge an additional sum of money as an additional risk fee.

But Rhodes is actually a poor ghost, and he can't afford the high price of more than [-] silver cables, unless he stops buying materials.

This made him very depressed, and he spent another three days in the academy, and there were only ten days left in the invasion time.

Today, he already planned to buy the license no matter what, and at worst, he would ask Kashan to borrow money.

There are no classes in the morning, daily patrols in the afternoon, and more important psionic classes in the evening. Rhodes can only choose to step into the market area early in the morning.

The market area in the early morning was a little deserted, many merchants did not open their doors, the street stalls disappeared, and there were only a few figures on the street.

The merchants are cleaning up the goods, and the shouting has long since ceased.

Rhodes came to the "Alva Jam Room", which was one of the few merchants who were willing to talk to him yesterday.

But he was disappointed to find that the owner of the jam room had changed.

"Where is the owner of this store?" Rhodes asked a fat, burly man.

"Go home and have a baby."

His voice was very awkward, as if he had swallowed a mouthful of old sauerkraut that he couldn't spit out for ten years, and his answer was also very absurd.

"Mr. Alva is a man!"

The fat man with yellow hair coughed heavily: "It's his wife who gave birth."

Rhodes was a little unbelievable: "Mr. Alva looks almost 70 years old, can his wife still have children?"

The fat man with yellow hair said impatiently: "It's fine if he marries someone?"

Rhodes frowned, people here are so good? Is it possible to create a human being at the age of 70?

But that wasn't his concern.

"This... I had a business deal with Mr. Alva yesterday, you know?"

The yellow-haired fat man replied: "I know, Mr. Ah He has handed over everything to me."

He took out a sterling silver card.

"The license of the second-level hunter 'Blade of Dawn' is only used to leave your spiritual imprint on the license and the Hunter's Holy Grail. You are him. No real name or identity is required. The most reasonable price in the industry is [-] silver."

Rhodes refused: "This is too expensive!"

The yellow-haired fat man said loudly: "This is in stock! Second-level hunter! There are no such cheap ones outside, and at least half the price will be added if you enter the academy."

Rhodes shook his head: "I can't afford it."

"Okay, fifteen thousand."

Rhodes himself was about to turn his head and leave, but he turned back when he heard it.

After all, it is a spot stock, which is much more convenient than those guys who have to go through various procedures.

"Well, I actually don't have fifteen thousand, can I..."

Rhodes originally wanted to ask if it could be divided into installments, but the fat man with yellow hair said directly: "Then let it be [-]."

Rhodes looked at him suspiciously. The profiteers he has come into contact with so far are not so easy to bargain.

Is this a newbie?Can't wait to close a deal and reveal the bottom line?
"I don't have ten thousand with me."

"Today is my first business deal, I will count you [-]."

"Still too expensive."

The yellow-haired fat man said angrily, "Are you going to buy it or not?"

Rhodes deliberately looked at his bottom, pretending to be helpless:

"I don't want to buy it. Think about it carefully, what's the use of spending so much money to go out? Maybe it's a good thing to accept the academy's regulations, at least it's safe."

The fat man with yellow hair became anxious: "Five thousand! Five thousand!"

"No, my weekly salary is only 42 silver cords, not five thousand for a hundred weeks."

The yellow-haired fat man's eyes widened: "Is there anyone who lives on a weekly salary? That money is useless, I just... cough cough, three thousand! Three thousand! This is the lowest price."

Rhodes still insisted on his opinion.

"Two thousand and five!"

"Two thousand!"

"one thousand!"

"How much is it? Say the number!"

Rhodes scratched his head: "I don't have any money with me, I wonder if I can..."

Before the word installment could be said, the yellow-haired fat man directly stuffed the silver medal into his hand.

"Okay, I'll send you off! I don't want it anymore! I won't do this business! It's closed down!"

click.

The fat man with yellow hair closed the door directly and left angrily.

Does this work too?
Rhodes held the silver hunter's license and looked at the yellow-haired fat man's back in disbelief.

I just cut a price, and he breaks the defense?
So fragile, can you still do business here?
Most of the students in the academy are very poor, and their weekly salary is their only source of income. When shopping here, half of every silver cord is cut off.

Rhodes now roughly understands that the purchasing power of a silver cable is very strong, which is roughly equivalent to ten yuan. Because the denomination is too large, many things have to be bought together.

10 silver cables are equivalent to 10 yuan, and you just gave me something worth [-] yuan?
Rhodes feels that something is not right, there will be no traps, right?

I want to verify the authenticity of this thing.

But who to turn to?

In the academy, Rhodes only had three good friends, Kashan, Wayne, and Zales.

Kashan's father is a high-ranking official of the Internal Affairs Tribunal, and she herself is a defender of the rules, so it's best not to ask her.

Wayne has no such channel, and probably has no way to do it.

Only Zales, his family belongs to the United Chamber of Commerce, and many merchants in the College Market area are listed under the name of his family's Chamber of Commerce.

He should have a way.

There is no class this morning, and he can roughly guess where the green hair often goes.

really.

Rhodes found Zales in the "Hometown of Goblins" tavern in the living area.

He came to the tavern early in the morning to enjoy the animal show from the City of Beasts.

Of course, he is not interested in animals at all, only in beautiful women performing with animals.

Perhaps because of the program, the tavern in the early morning was also very lively, with whistles and shouts one after another, and a woman in a beast trainer costume was playing with a few big yellow dogs on a half-person-high wooden booth.

The content is also very simple, that is, the common dog holds a frisbee. Due to the small space, the distance and height of the animal trainer's throw are very low.

But every time the big yellow dog bites, the audience will burst into applause, as if they have seen an extremely wonderful performance.

Can this also be called a program?

Rhodes thought, maybe the pets here are very rare.

Hmm... In this environment, it's not bad for people to survive, and it's a miracle that animals and plants can grow normally.

It is said that such miracles are brought about by the holy white tree, also known as the tree of life, which is the most important thing to human beings besides the holy fire.

There is a huge tree of life in Wangcheng, which is next to the holy fire, absorbing the light and heat of the holy fire. Its huge root system purifies the water source flowing down from the dark plain, so that Wangcheng has sufficient clean water.

Under its luxuriant branches and leaves is a life paradise known as a botanical garden. There are not only a large number of precious animals and plants, but also spiritual herbs that can produce spiritual materials.

Most of the raw materials of the various medicines used by the students come from here.

And in all the planting or breeding settlements outside the royal city, there are branches of the holy white tree, and the breath of life it emits can nourish all life.

Rhode withdrew his thoughts and saw the conspicuous green hair in the crowd at a glance. He was shouting: "Sister, can we have breakfast together?"

Rhodes squeezed to him and shouted, "Zaza, I have something to ask you!"

The green hair turned back: "Don't call me Zaza!"

"Okay, Zaza, it's too noisy here, let's go out."
