After the master and the servant finished dinner, all the tableware was thrown into the capsule residence, and the housekeeping figure worked hard without complaining, putting away the things and cleaning them.
Arriving at the front hall, Ziyuan was still sitting behind the counter. The door of the blacksmith shop was empty, and few people came in to buy things.
Occasionally, people come in to take a look, and eventually leave disappointed.
It's not that the things here are not good enough, it's that the quality of the things is too good and the prices are too expensive for ordinary people living in outer cities to afford.
Even though Block 7 is already a gathering place for very high-ranking experts, not everyone has enough money to buy good things. There are a large number of high-end shops here, and the consumption is also scary.
Li Zheng was in a hurry and didn't take a closer look. Now he had some free time, so he visited the blacksmith shop.
[You should really take a stroll, maybe there are some unexpected surprises waiting for you.]
The moment Li Zheng had an idea, Lao Pu turned on the Riddler mode and gave vague hints.
"Surprise?" Li Zheng looked at the first product on the shelf nearest to him. It was an ordinary long knife with no features. There was a monitor next to the shelf with the price displayed on it.
Thirty thousand red crystal coins!
"This is so frightening!"
Li Zheng was secretly stunned. He went on an official mission published by the terminal, and the final profit was only 500 red crystal coins. The asking price of this inconspicuous long knife was sixty times his entire net worth!
[It’s not its problem, it’s your problem!]
Lao Pu stabbed Li Zheng in the heart indifferently. He was so angry that his mouth almost twisted: "When has Li ever been so angry?!"
But the next moment, I thought about how long it would take for me to make so much money, and I felt discouraged all of a sudden.
"Although I really don't want to admit it, I am indeed a poor person..." Li Zheng was about to cry without tears. If other players in the matrix heard this, they would only secretly call him Versailles, but in the outer city, his wealth is indeed not enough.
look.
Especially in a block with such an early number, five hundred red crystal coins is really nothing.
Zi Yuan saw him stunned in front of the first weapon, thinking that he didn't know how to operate the shelf, so he walked over and said, "I will help you get the detailed information of this product, and it will also give you a good look at the blacksmith shop."
strength."
As he spoke, he clicked a few times on the screen displaying the prices, and immediately called out a text. The shelves where the goods were placed came with a translation function. According to Li Zheng's race, Zi Yuan adjusted the text to something he could understand: "These
It is the detailed information of the Raging Flame Sword. Unlike in the matrix, the outer city cannot see the information left by the manufacturer to judge the quality of the prop. Therefore, someone developed this kind of shelf, and the merchant wrote all the properties of the prop.
in."
Li Zheng nodded, thinking: "I know a little about the strength of your blacksmith shop, but the things are just too expensive!!!"
On the surface, he pretended to be calm, but after carefully looking at the detailed introduction of the Raging Flame Sword, he discovered that this weapon, which looked unremarkable at all, was actually a weapon above the primary level!
Moreover, a mineral called "Rage Flame Crystal" that Li Zheng had never seen before was used during the creation. The long knife itself has the characteristics of flames. It only needs to be instilled with some mental power and genetic force to summon energy on the surface of the long knife.
A layer of high-temperature flames erupted.
According to reports, this flame is very magical. After being summoned, it will only have an effect on the user's target. No other people or things will be affected by the flame.
If the user is good at fire-type genetic abilities, there are more mysterious uses with this knife, such as releasing knife-shaped flames to attack enemies from a distance. The power is comparable to ordinary elementary high-level weapons, and it is easy to kill elementary creatures.
After seeing the Raging Flame Sword, Li Zheng looked at a few more products out of curiosity, and the more he looked at them, the more amazed he became.
The blacksmith shop was worthy of being the leading store in Block 7. He couldn't afford to buy anything on the shelves.
The Raging Flame Sword just now was actually quite cheap, and in the future there will be weapons that cost more than 100,000 red crystal coins!
Moreover, Li Zheng was no stranger to this weapon.
It was a pure black spear with a frosted surface and a golden dragon carved out with special craftsmanship, making it lifelike.
At first glance, the dragon's head was just facing Li Zheng's face. He almost thought that the golden dragon was going to jump out and attack him!
The last time he saw something exactly like this spear was when he fought with the wandering businessman Xiao, who used the same weapon.
"One claw, two claws, three claws... five claws!?" Li Zheng finished counting the claws of the golden dragon snaking on the surface of the spear, and was surprised to find that there were five of them. "Whose carvings are on the surface of this spear?"
Did you get it up? What’s the reference?”
"This?" Zi Yuan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Li Zheng would be interested in this kind of thing. He explained: "The Black Dragon Spear was made by the senior brother. It is his proud work. There are only two in the world, and one has been sold so far.
Rod.
The carvings on it were also carved by Senior Brother based on the appearance of a certain creature in the legend of the Divine Bird Tribe. It is said that this creature is called a 'dragon' and has a feud with the ancestors of the Divine Bird Tribe and is extremely cruel.
Senior Brother used 'dragon' as the carving pattern because he considered the characteristics of the Black Dragon Spear itself as a weapon, so as to add a sinister aura to it."
Li Zheng listened silently, with a complicated expression.
Unexpectedly, what was regarded as an auspicious and noble totem by the Chinese people on earth would turn into a ferocious beast when it came to the divine bird tribe!
[嚯嚯嚯嚯~ It’s a rare treasure. If the material hadn’t been too rare, there wouldn’t be only two of them in the world. If you could buy it for one hundred thousand red crystal coins, it would be a huge bargain.
!]
"This gun..." Li Zheng stretched out his hand to touch it, but was bounced away by the isolation barrier on the shelf: "Can you keep it for me, and I will buy it when I save enough money."
"Do you like this weapon?" Zi Yuan was surprised, and then explained: "It's not difficult to keep it for you."
He pointed to the small line of text at the bottom of the introduction and said, "Did you see it?"
Li Zheng looked at it intently, and what he saw in small letters was: Those who cannot control the Black Dragon Spear will not be sold at a premium!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "What does this mean?" Li Zheng asked curiously: "Why don't you sell it even if you give me more money?"
"This is a privilege given by the teacher to the senior brother." Zi Yuan explained: "Only the senior senior brother in the shop has this kind of privilege, because the things he makes have some strange characteristics."
He pulled Li Zheng around and looked at the row of shelves behind him: "These are all the works of Senior Brother. Look at this crossbow. The condition proposed by Senior Brother is that it is a race without wings and will not be sold!"
Then he pointed to the bow next to him: "The ones with wings are not for sale! The ones with scales over there are not for sale, and the ones with thick hair over there are not for sale..."
Li Zheng was stunned when he heard this: "Why are there these strange restrictions? Doesn't this affect the business of the shop?"
"Yes, but there is no way. If some restrictions are not imposed, it will affect the reputation of the shop even more." Zi Yuan also sighed helplessly, pointing to the works of the senior brother and said: "Didn't you realize that the works of the senior brother are all weapons?
?And there are different carvings on the surface.”
Li Zheng looked at them one by one and found that this was indeed the case.
In addition to the five-clawed golden dragon on the surface of the black dragon gun, he also found a phoenix-like carving on the crossbow, while the bow body had a carving of peacock feathers. There were many kinds of carvings, but only the carvings that Li Zheng could identify were
No less than fifty species!
There were more carving prototypes that he couldn't recognize at all and needed Lao Pu to answer his questions!
Seeing that he was still confused, Zi Yuan smiled, made a few operations on the black dragon gun shelf, and opened the isolation barrier: "Experience it for yourself, and you will understand the purpose of senior brother's doing this."
Li Zheng hesitated for a moment: "Is it really okay?"
"Of course." Zi Yuan said: "If you can't control the Black Dragon Spear, don't you just give up the idea of buying it? It also saves you from saving enough money and finally finding that buying it back is useless."
"Isn't it just a weapon?" Li Zheng stretched out his hand to grab the black dragon gun and thought to himself: "Is it possible that in the hands of the wrong person, it can still... hmm?"
The moment he held the Black Dragon Spear, he was suddenly stunned.
The gun didn't look heavy, but it was extremely heavy. With his current physique, he couldn't pick it up for a while, and couldn't even move it!
With his current physique, it would be easy to move something weighing ten tons.
However, he couldn't hold the black dragon spear that he could hold in one hand!?
"Do you understand now? Those who can't control the Black Dragon Spear will have trouble even picking it up. If they pay but can't take it away, wouldn't it destroy the sign of our shop if word spread?" Zi Yuan smiled, reaching out to activate the isolation.
Barrier, but found that Li Zheng was looking at the hand holding the gun in horror, with no intention of letting go.
"Since you are not the chosen owner of the Black Dragon Spear, just let it go. I understand your love for your favorite weapon, but no matter how reluctant you are to let it go, you won't be able to take it away after all, so you might as well let it go."
A drop of cold sweat broke out on Li Zheng's forehead: "If I said that my hand was sucked by the Black Dragon Spear, would you believe it?"
"How come?" Zi Yuan was surprised: "Don't be kidding me, this has never happened before!"
Li Zheng felt an irresistible suction coming from the Black Dragon Gun in his palm, causing his palm to wrap tightly around the gun body and unable to let go.
For a time, such a strange situation meant that he could neither pick up the Black Dragon Spear nor let go and leave.
"Just wait, I'll call the teacher!" Zi Yuan tried to pry Li Zheng's fingers apart, but it didn't work with all her strength. Li Zheng's hand seemed to have turned into an indestructible alloy, and he couldn't shake it no matter how hard he tried.
Every cent.
He couldn't solve this unprecedented situation, so he could only run to the back of the blacksmith shop and ask the blacksmith for help.
As soon as he stepped forward, another change occurred in Li Zheng's hands!
The surface of the black dragon gun seemed to have a tiny needle protruding from it, piercing Li Zheng's palm. Then he felt that the blood in his body was attracted by the black dragon gun and flowed into the barrel of the gun.
The strange thing is that Li Zheng looked carefully, but could not see the slightest change in the black dragon gun. It was as if his blood had disappeared into the sea and disappeared out of thin air.
【Oh, you are so stupid!】
Lao Pu had no choice but to give a hint:
【Look at the faucet!】
Dragon head?
Li Zheng looked as he was told, only to find that a pair of vivid eyes slowly appeared in the originally empty golden dragon's eyes!
The eyes are completely filled with blood, but they don't look evil, but have a sense of majesty!
"Is this... the finishing touch?" Li Zheng thought of an allusion: "Could it be that these carvings made by Senior Brother are actually yet to be completed in the last step?"
[To be precise, it has been completed. This is just the process of recognizing the master. I didn’t expect that there are races in this universe that have such skills...]
Li Zheng took in all the flashing reminder text, his eyelids twitched twice, his face remained motionless, and he asked in his mind: "How much blood will it suck from me before it will stop? I can't hold on any longer!"
The golden dragon's eyes changed from red to purple, and the color became darker and darker, gradually turning to black.
On the contrary, Li Zheng's originally healthy and rosy complexion slowly turned pale, and a trace of deathly ashes climbed onto his forehead, like a dying person.
Not only that, because his body became weak, the long black hair on his back realized that there was an opportunity and began to twist strangely. The whispers in Li Zheng's ears became louder and louder, as if he was standing in the center of a square with tens of thousands of people, listening to
It's like they are talking at the same time.
"Don't make any noise!" Li Zheng was upset by the noise and yelled angrily.
But the whispers did not weaken at all, but became louder and louder. Finally, his hearing was completely covered, and countless words were echoing in his ears, with unclear meanings.
He tried to find something to replenish blood in the capsule residence, but he rummaged through all the inventory and couldn't find anything.
Li Zheng tried to use his mental power to stop the dragon pattern from absorbing him, but because his body became weak, and he used it a little bit, dense cracks appeared on the surface of his body. Because the blood became scarce, those cracks only had a trace of bright red color, but they were not visible.
Blood flowed out.
"It's over, I won't die here, right?" Li Zheng's eyes turned black. It would be too uncomfortable if he was sucked dry by a spear and died.
The black hair twisted and squirmed, spreading to Li Zheng's face like tentacles. Two thick baby arms covered his eyes, making it impossible for him to see.
In addition, several thin lines were differentiated and drilled into his nostrils, mouth, and ears. They penetrated bit by bit and launched an attack on his brain.
Li Zheng wanted to raise his left hand to stop him, but he didn't have the strength. There were waves of dizziness deep in his consciousness, and he almost couldn't hold on anymore.
Just when the oil was about to run out, a faint trace of energy emerged from the depths of every cell in his body. That was the last remaining power of the Marrow Cleansing Pill!
Sensing that Li Zheng had become extremely weak, the power of the marrow-cleansing pill came out of his limbs and bones, converted into body nutrients, and was quickly replenished into Li Zheng's body.
The heart beat became strong again, and streams of hot blood began to enter the blood vessels from the heart and pumped throughout his body.
At this moment, the dragon-patterned eyes completely turned into pure black, like two vivid eyeballs. They turned and looked at Li Zheng.
The next moment, the passionate dragon's roar echoed in Li Zheng's ears, and the noisy and irritating whispers disappeared in an instant as if they had encountered a natural enemy.
The 'black hair' that had penetrated his mouth, nose, and ears also hurriedly escaped, and turned back into long, smooth black hair behind him, and stopped moving.
When his vision returned, Li Zheng bent over and retched while holding the black dragon gun, and he kept coughing.
He felt that something had entered his throat roughly and was very uncomfortable.
[Congratulations, the inside of it has changed into your shape. From now on, no one can use this gun unless you die. 】
The side door opened. Miriel heard the movement and entered the front hall. He was shocked when he saw Li Zheng's appearance: "How did you become like this?"
She had just finished dinner and suddenly felt a surge in her heart. She couldn't control it, so she stayed in the room to suppress the invasion of her heart, instead of following Li Zheng as usual.
Su gently patted Li Zheng's back with his bare hands, cheering him up: "You look so bad, you seem to have lost too much blood. What happened? Were you attacked?"
Li Zheng raised his left hand, finally regained his breath, and said weakly: "It's okay, it's just that I paid an unexpected price."
Although the price almost cost him his life, from now on he would have to live with spiritual power like Xu.
Fortunately, the power of the previous marrow-cleansing pill temporarily reached its upper limit due to the rapid increase in body strength, leaving some power accumulated in various parts of the body, which gave him a breath of fresh air at the critical moment and helped him survive.
The price is that the power of the marrow cleansing pill is finally exhausted, and it will be really dangerous if you encounter a similar situation next time.
"Teacher, come quickly, Li Zheng..."
The back door opened, and Zi Yuan Huo Liao came out with the blacksmith in a hurry. She turned around and saw that Li Zheng stood up and gently raised his right hand, and he easily took off the Black Dragon Spear.
The blacksmith's huge body squeezed in from the back door and said in a muffled voice: "What's wrong with him? Isn't he fine?"
Zi Yuan was stunned: "But...but...he wasn't like this just now..."
Li Zheng looked at the Black Dragon Spear carefully for a moment, put it back on the shelf, and tried to let go.
This time there was no suction and he let go smoothly. He breathed a sigh of relief and forced a smile: "I'm sorry, this gun seems to be owned by me. I also asked the blacksmith to keep it in the shop for me until I save it."
If you have enough money, come and take it."
The dark red color of the blacksmith's body was flowing endlessly, as if magma was flowing on the surface of his body. A pair of red-gray eyes stared at Li Zheng for a moment, and asked Zi Yuan: "How much does that gun cost?"
"Reply to the teacher, senior brother will price one hundred thousand red crystal coins." Zi Yuan answered accurately.
"Yes." The blacksmith nodded slightly: "I'll make the decision and sell him this gun at a 50% discount. I'll go to your senior brother's place and tell him."
After he finished speaking, he nodded to Li Zheng, then turned around and entered the back of the shop.
"The blacksmith never misses an opportunity to give a favor. The Black Dragon Spear has recognized me as its master. Even if others want to buy it, they can't take it away. It still takes up space in the shop." Li Zheng said secretly in his heart: "Now in front of me.
He decided to sell it to me at half price, and when I take away the Black Dragon Spear, I will owe him a favor."
Zi Yuan came back with a confused look on her face, reopened the isolation barrier on the shelf, and wondered: "That's not right, the process of identifying the owner of these weapons was not like this before. Why has it changed this time?"
Li Zheng originally wanted Miriel to help him go back to his room to rest. Hearing this, he became interested and asked: "Brother Yuan, do you still remember the buyer of the last black dragon gun? How did he conquer the black dragon gun?"
of?"
"The last one..." Zi Yuan spoke subconsciously, but suddenly stopped and said, "I can't tell you the customer's information, but I can tell you about the process of conquering the Black Dragon Spear."
"Oh?" Li Zheng was curious: "How did he do it?"
Zi Yuan stretched out her hand and made a grabbing motion, saying, "He just grabbed the Black Dragon Spear, then picked it up, paid, and left."
