Chapter 1046 The edge of the sea

As the secret market of Leo's destination, it is located in a dock warehouse controlled by the Sericulture Church. The people in charge of the security work here are also armed personnel of the church, which almost shows everyone that the supporters behind this market are the church.

It is also because of this that although this market is called a secret market, it is actually not a secret at all. Many people can obtain market addresses through various channels. For example, Leo just obtained this market address from a store selling extraordinary items, which shows the degree of openness of this market.

Although the market address is semi-public and almost everyone who knows the address can come here, it is not an easy thing to enter the market. There are only two types of passes to enter the market. Either you are a person with extraordinary power or you have mysterious items that can be traded on it.

Facing the guards of the warehouse, Leo took out a monster wreck obtained from the Desperate Mountains and passed it smoothly, while Sean showed the necklace he was wearing around his neck.

After entering the warehouse, Leo and Sean instantly felt a strong black market atmosphere surrounding the entire market. The random but orderly stalls were placed. Market managers who were patrolling the stalls and the neatly built warehouses against the walls were lined with simple shops. Even if there was no eye-catching, people could see that the items sold by those shops were much better than those on the stalls.

"Do you know what I think?" Leo said to Sean after seeing the market in front of him.

Sean seemed to understand Leo's meaning, nodded, and said, "I think so too, it's so much like a black market here."

"It seems that the controller behind this market should be that Princess Chris." Leo guessed.

Although there is no evidence to prove that this market has anything to do with Princess Chris, the atmosphere and construction model of this market alone are enough to judge that the market builders are imitating the black market. In this world, except for Princess Chris who have settled here, there is no one else found, and related inferences are naturally formed.

The two of them took a quick look at the situation in the market, and then began to wander around the market like an ordinary buyer.

Compared to Sean's careless look at the goods on the stalls, Leo seemed much more serious. He first used the Spirit Network to check the energy fluctuations of items on each stall, and then started from the stall with the strongest energy fluctuations, gradually moving towards the stall with weak energy fluctuations.

Although the goods on some stalls do not have any energy fluctuations, they can still attract Leo's attention, because most of them are debris of decorative objects that seem meaningless, and some are the remains of certain high-tech items.

When distinguishing these goods, Leo discovered some interesting things. All the items emitting strong energy fluctuations on these stalls came from nearby islands or sea areas, while the fragments with obvious civilization characteristics and the wreckage of high-tech items came from the outer sea areas.

Leo chose a high-tech wreck that looks pretty good. Based on its appearance and some corroded marks on it, it should be an oscillation energy generator device of a certain weapon.

Although the appearance of this device has been corroded a lot and looks like a sealed scrap box, Leo checked the internal structure through the mental network and found that its interior is still intact, and the device's hidden trigger button can still work, which means that the device can still be used as usual.

Leo did not know what the corresponding weapon of this device was for, but he judged from the four energy boxes placed inside the device that once this device was detonated, its destructive power would be enough to shatter an island, create a giant tsunami, and create an immeasurable undersea earthquake.

The only drawback is that this device does not have a coordination system that controls the energy output, so the energy is released at one time, and it is also used at one time. After use, not only the energy is completely consumed, but even the device itself will be completely damaged.

However, even so, this device can still be regarded as a magical weapon, but such an artifact-like item only costs Leo a little money. According to the price here, that little money can only buy a good drink.

The stall owner who sold the thing to Leo obviously didn't know that he had just sold a magic weapon with the money of a drink. If he knew, he would probably kill him by looking for a wall here.

However, what he didn't know was that Leo decided to buy this device was not because of the power after use, but because of the stall owner himself.

When buying things, Leo had easily used various languages ​​to easily get the details of the stall owner who had only a little mutated state. He knew that the other party came from the most marginal island in the world. He came here for pilgrimage to the Holy Temple. He sailed on the sea for more than a year before he came here. He happened to meet the Changling Day, so he decided to go back after the Changling Day.

However, in this way, the money he brought was not enough, so he could only come here to set up a stall and sell some of the various items he collected on the islands he had already traveled to his hometown.

Because he comes from a marginal island, the people here naturally discriminate against him, which makes his stall business very ordinary, and the things he sells every day can barely pay for the hotel and the meals he spends a day.

Therefore, when he met Leo, a semi-member of the pseudo-brief island, he naturally felt a little intimate and talked too much.

Under Leo's deliberate guidance, the stall owner gave a lot of information that was very useful to Leo, such as the edge of the world was not gray fog, and a vertically downward cliff. Once the ship approached, the turbulent current would pull the ship over and eventually fall off the cliff.

All ships that fell off the cliff did not appear in the end, so some people also said that under the cliff there is a place called the Sea of ​​Eternal Silence. All living beings in the world will enter the Sea of ​​Eternal Silence after death and sleep until the sea god wakes up from the temple, and all living beings entering the Sea of ​​Eternal Silence will also wake up and accept the final judgment of the Sea God. Only those who pass the judgment can follow the Sea God to reach His Kingdom of God and obtain eternal life.

Although Leo was curious about the situation of the ocean cliffs at the edge of the world, he had never had the idea of ​​exploring the truth. He was more interested in a legend that appeared in the seas in the marginal areas.

According to legend, there is always a mysterious silver-white metal monster wandering in that area of ​​sea. The monster generally does not attack nearby ships, but if someone tries to get close to it, it will directly cut the ship with its blade-shaped back.

Some people who fell into the water saw the whole picture of the monster in the water. They described the monster as a huge fish with a blade full of swords, several hot flames burning on their tails, dozens of eyes, and each one was like a ball of flame, illuminating the dark seabed. Legend has it that if someone dared to look at this monster for a long time, their eyes would be blind in the monster's curse. If the luck is good, they would just be blind for a while, and the luck is completely blind.

After hearing this legend, Leo immediately thought that the so-called huge monster in the water should be a small battleship. The flames on the tail and eyes were all energy light waves and illumination light generated by the engine. As for the curse that caused the viewer to blind, it is better understood. Without a light filter device, let alone the locals here who have been adapting to the dark environment of the world for a long time, even the civilized races in the universe who rely on their eyes to observe objects will blind after watching the engine energy light and high-energy searchlight.

There is another clue that Leo judged that the monster was a spaceship. This clue is that where the monster stayed, some similar shock energy generator devices could be found. It seems that this spaceship was searching for the remains of cosmic civilizations here, and wanted to repair the spaceship with the parts that could be used in them.

This made Leo unable to help but have an idea that if he had enough time, he could go to the edge of the sea to see if there was really a usable spacecraft wandering in the sea, and maybe he could discover some things related to the changes in the universe.

After all, if someone can control the spacecraft, the identity of the operator is definitely not simple. Whether it is the pilot and captain of the spacecraft itself, he has obtained certain authority from the spacecraft and has also mastered some information related to the spacecraft.

So, when Leo revealed that he might return to the edge of the sea after the Long Spirit Day, the stall owner immediately expressed his hope that Leo could go with him, and even invited Leo to visit his hometown island.

Leo did not refuse this, but said that if time permits, he asked the stall owner for his current address, and said that if he makes a decision, he would go to him.

Afterwards, Leo spent some local currency to buy some things from the stall owner that were not very useful, which made up for the actual price difference of the device before, so he got up and left the stall and went to other places to continue shopping.

While wandering around, the two soon saw the sea monster snails for this trip in a small store opened by the elves.

Before seeing the sea monster snail, both Leo and Sean subconsciously believed that the sea monster snail was a kind of creature, through which some unknown monsters in the ocean could be summoned.

But after seeing it, I realized that the so-called sea monster snail is a strange thing made of some kind of conch, and the sea monster it summons is not a real sea monster, but an energy monster that uses the marine power and water contained in this strange thing.

Leo can now imitate marine power through the power of nightmare to create this kind of marine energy monster, but the size and power of the monster are probably far from comparable to this sea monster snail, because Leo has a power that he cannot analyze in the power he feels from some of the sea monster snails that are not completely damaged. This energy may be the main reason why the sea monster snails have such a powerful effect.

Although these sea monster snails are defective, Leo can feel that except for the energy fluctuations emitted by one sea monster snail are quite stable, the energy fluctuations of other sea monster snails are very abnormal. Once used, unpredictable situations will occur. Even if the sea monster snail with stable energy is not very good, it shows an energy dissipation, which means that the sea monster snail will become a decoration in the future.

However, even these defective products have a low price. At least with the current cash on Leo, he can only buy a spiral cone angle at the top of the sea monster snail.

If it were before discovering the real effect of the golden scales, Sean might have taken out the golden scales to exchange for a sea monster snail defective product, but now he has only experienced the pleasure. After leaving here, he will see if he can contact the people who are always here in the sea clan, and then use this golden scale to exchange sea monster snails, or even better things.

After seeing what the sea monster snail is, the two of them also lost interest in this place and did not stay in the spiritual shop for too long. They quickly left. Afterwards, they wandered around the market. Leo spent some money to buy a few ancient ruins that looked very special, and then left the market and walked back towards the dock construction site.

The two walked through the dock area and entered a relatively secluded path that they had walked by when they came. At this time, both of them stopped their feet because there were already several people waiting in front of the path. When they stopped, several people also emerged from the woods behind them.

Seeing the person blocking the way, Leo smiled and said to Sean: "Look, this is the result of wealth being exposed. Do I need to take action?"

"No need! You don't need to take action." Perhaps because he had found a way to obtain the sea monster snail, Sean seemed to relax a lot at this moment. Faced with these people who blocked the way, he saw that he was not afraid of him. He was not only a little excited, but instead he wanted to try out how hard he had never used his self-defense method.

Just as he was talking to Leo, the roadblockers walked up one after another. The person in charge officially monitored Leo and his construction site before, while the others were people who didn't know, but from the outfit, they should be teaching some of the lower-level staff of the church.

After seeing Leo and Sean clearly, he didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the topic: "Support that golden scale."

"Do you want it?" Sean took two steps forward, took out the golden scale from his pocket, and raised it to a place where everyone could see it. Then the bracelet on his wrist emitted a faint light, and heard him say in a strange tone, "But who am I going to give it? There is only one piece here, and only one person can get it. Who am I going to give it?"

Just as Sean finished speaking, a knife stabbed the cleric in the head and penetrated directly through the internal organs, causing him to die on the spot. The one behind him was a subordinate behind him, and at this time, this subordinate was also attacked by others, or the others were attacking each other.
