Magic!

Chapter 111 109. Did the devil cultists also come to buy materials?

In the end, Russell used Spark to sell cheaply and bought a lot of extraordinary items, stuffing them all into his own dimensional pocket.

These include "Na Ring", "Invisibility Cloak that is only invisible through clothes", "Mind Reading Brooch", "Magic Lamp that needs to fulfill the wishes of the Djinn God", "Umbrella that makes rain inside when opened", "Let people A healing staff for particularly itchy wounds,” and so on.

It was the first time that Xinghuo saw someone like her products so much. She gave Russell a big discount as promised and only charged 20 college gold coins. The less money was regarded as a reward for Russell's advice to her.

When Russell finished buying a bunch of things and left Xinghuo's stall with Feng Chime, the surrounding stall owners and passers-by cast suspicious glances.

"Russell, Russell, everyone around is looking at us." The wind chime was very excited.

"It's not a good thing." Russell shrugged, "You can guess what they are thinking."

Fengchi wanted to take out the mind-reading brooch and try again to see if he could hear the voices of the people around him, but he was stopped by the kind-hearted Russell.

Russell gathered his energy, secretly drove the ghost, and eavesdropped on the discussions of the people around him.

"That boy bought a lot from Xinghuo's stall."

"It's Tuoba, right? It must be Tuoba!"

"Yes, that girl must have found two agents to buy her things. It's so insidious."

"Shh, that's a third-year boss. Keep your voice down so you don't want to be heard."

"..."

Russell realized that his wisdom aura was working again and sighed silently.

After that, he visited several other stalls.

Russell estimated that he might soon be promoted to a second-year expert, learn "herbology", and have a high demand for various materials.

Before coming to the offline trading area, he confirmed with Professor Black Amber in advance that there were dozens of common materials needed to practice herbalism and refine secret medicine in the future.

Although the denomination of college gold coins is too large, it often exceeds the price of a material. But in fact, it is easy to carry out small transactions with college coins, just split them.

One gold coin can be broken into 10 silver coins, and one silver coin can be broken into 10 copper coins, which is very characteristic of RPG.

He returned to the stall he had seen earlier, run by an alchemy doll, selling supernatural materials.

"The White Wolf Club specializes in online stores. The latest launch of apple-flavored holy water is delicious and easy to use! Block the mouth of the alchemy doll to cancel the personalized advertising service."

Russell bought several mineral materials amid the advertisement for the Alchemy Doll.

"Wraith dust."

"Sacred mistletoe picked at the full moon."

"Dried silverleaf grass."

"Fermented Spider Eyes."

"The rooster's left paw is ground into powder and undergoes an 81-day ritual process."

"The tuberous roots of the Human-Faced Tree and the leaves of the Mandrake. Attention! It must come from the Human-Faced Tree and Mandrake that have the ability to speak and can speak."

"The bark leachate of building wood."

"..."

After spending half an hour browsing more than a dozen stalls, Russell finally collected most of the materials and put them into his dimensional pocket.

The products at offline stalls do not seem to have been too affected by Wanwuhui, and the prices are generally relatively fair. Of course, it may also be because Xinghuo is sitting here, and it is difficult for people from the Wanwuhui to find trouble.

But even so, purchasing so many materials cost Russell almost 10 college gold coins.

Russell's small treasury suddenly dropped to about 32 college gold coins.

Sure enough, the road to transcendence still costs money... Russell sighed silently.

This situation of requiring a large amount of expensive materials is also common in other majors and is a huge obstacle that prevents many extraordinary people from entering higher grades.

For example, as far as Russell knows, students in the element and energy department need to draw energy from gems from time to time when practicing, which will consume a lot of expensive gems.

Russell recalled that during his first-year magic training, apart from paying tuition and textbook fees, he actually didn't spend much money.

The core course for the first-year major in the Department of Necromancer and Life is Spiritualism, which emphasizes spirit rather than matter and does not require expensive materials. The contract spirit that is most likely to cost the psychic, he got it for free again.

But the extraordinary path in the future may not necessarily be so lucky. There are still many occasions where money is needed.

Before leaving the trading area, Russell walked to the last stall selling occult materials. The stall was run by a brother and sister.

Russell's eyes quickly scanned the brand names on the table and floor to see if there were any materials he needed.

It seems that the materials I want are not available...wait, this is it!

Russell's eyes fell on one of the brands marked with the product name, which clearly read "Higher Shadow Essence Extract".

Behind the sign is an almost empty glass jar with black viscous liquid remaining inside.

This is not too dangerous material in itself, and other students wouldn't care.

But Russell had just been reminded by Duncan in the past two days, and he was very wary of any clues that might be left by demon cultists, and the strings in his mind suddenly tightened.

He suddenly remembered that the summoning circle left by the Red Order of Chaos was analyzed by the school, and the analysis results showed:

Among the several materials needed to carve the magic circle, one is the "essence extract of advanced shadow"!

The school did not announce the analysis results. As the hero of the incident, Russell only learned the secret from Professor Black Amber.

Could it be that the devil cultists are also here to buy materials? An idea suddenly appeared in Russell's mind.

He was just doing his normal shopping when he accidentally discovered clues about a demonic cult, which just confirmed Duncan's prediction and made Russell feel like his fate was destined in the vague.

Among the two brothers and sisters running the stall, the younger sister noticed Russell’s eyes falling on the glass jar and said quickly:

"I'm sorry, this guest. Two days ago, a customer bought all the shadow essence extract in the jar."

Seeing this, my brother recalled the scene at that time and smiled at his sister:

"Yes. That's the first time we've seen someone buy such a large amount of high-grade shadow essence extract at one time. Other customers usually buy a few grams at a time."

He immediately turned his head and looked at Russell with an apologetic look:

"Sorry. This kind of material is relatively rare, and we won't be able to get new supplies within half a year."

Russell's heart sank and he asked hurriedly:

"Who did you sell to?"

The brother and sister looked at each other.

After hesitating for a moment, my brother said:

"Sorry. According to the rules, it is not convenient for us to disclose the buyer's information."

Spellcasters purchase materials, which may be used to prepare potions, create extraordinary items, or perform certain spells and rituals, and they need to keep their cards secret. Therefore, stores generally default to keeping buyers confidential.

My sister also smiled and explained:

"And we don't know the name or details of the buyer. It's hard to describe his appearance in words."

"Nothing. I was just asking."

Russell did not ask further questions, smiled to show his understanding, turned around and left, until he walked outside the offline trading area.

Seeing that Russell had already walked away and left the offline trading area, the three brothers and sisters no longer paid attention to the episode just now and did whatever they should do.

The three of them worked together, sometimes arranging the potions and materials on the tables and shelves, sometimes using magic tricks to clean up the stains on the shelves, and sometimes receiving new customers.

Everything is business as usual.

The three brothers and sisters were busy for a while, and the eldest sister Feng Ling suddenly asked her brother:

"Brother. Speaking of which, last time someone bought out all the high-grade shadow essence extract in our store, it was really surprising. Such uncommon materials are generally not in large demand, right? By the way, that customer is long What's it like?"

The elder brother thought for a moment and shook his head:

"The hood covers his face, so he can't see any features, except that his nose seems a little red."

Nose a little red?

Feng Chi was silent for a few seconds, then he touched his face and used the illusion of disguise, turning into the appearance of Vermouth.

"Is he like this? Brother."

The elder brother looked at this face and was still thinking, when the younger sister came over.
