Chapter 3178 Table of Contents

 When Angel walked into the cubicle, he realized that Luigi had not followed him.

 Looking back, he saw Luigi staring at the little hamster being tortured by Pilusi, with scrutiny in his eyes.

 It wasn’t until Angel called him that Luigi gave up observing the hamster and followed him in.

 “Are you interested in that hamster?” Angel asked casually.

 Luigi touched his chin: "I'm not interested, but I always feel that the combination of Piluxiu and hamster is a bit strange."

 “Strange?” Angel asked doubtfully, “It’s not strange for hamsters to appear anywhere, right?”

 Luigi shook his head: "That's not what I meant. I just think this combination looks a bit familiar. I seem to have heard someone talk about it somewhere before..."

Luigi thought for a moment, and after confirming that he couldn't remember it, he gave up.

"Forget it, I can't remember." Luigi: "I probably just overheard it when others were talking. This type of memory is too complicated, and I am too lazy to look it up."

"Let's take a look at his things." Luigi turned to look at the treasure pointed by the man in black robes...

This compartment is very cramped, and the walls on both sides feel like they are pressing up. With the rolling gears outside, it looks even more cramped.

However, although the cubicle was small, it was not too crowded even with the four of them standing there. The reason is simple, there is nothing else in the compartment, just a wooden frame.

 There are five black wooden boxes placed on the wooden shelf.

 “Is this the ‘baby’ you call?” Luigi frowned: “So few?”

The man in black robe chuckled lightly: "Although there are only five boxes, there are quite a lot of things inside."

"Whatever you want, you can ask me first, and I will get it for you." The man in black robe looked at Angel, obviously this sentence was specifically meant for Angel.

　　After a pause, the man in black robe looked at Luigi: "The guest just said that he wanted music scores with a religious nature, right? I really have a few here, I can show them to you."

The man in black robe took the first box and opened the lid. Inside was a layer of rich blood-red mist.

He stretched out his hand and reached into the mist, muttering "music score" in his mouth while stirring the box. After a while, he took out two rolled pieces of parchment from the box.

After taking out the parchment, he wiped it lightly, and three-quarters of the parchment was obscured by the blood-red mist, leaving only a small part in the middle clearly visible.

This is obviously a precautionary measure he took. After all, music scores can be memorized completely. Without some cover, giving it to Luigi would be like giving it away in vain.

After Luigi took the music score, he signaled to Angel, then walked aside alone, took the music score and started reading.

The man in black robe turned to look at Angel: "Where is this guest? You can tell me what type of thing you want."

Angor: “Isn’t there a catalog?”

Man in black robe: "Yes, but the catalog is not complete. There are many things that I did not record in the catalog."

　　When the man in black robe spoke at the end, his voice became obviously lower, and his tone became ambiguous and seductive.

　　Seems to be hinting to Angel, he has a lot of good things here, even...contraband.

Angor could naturally hear the implication of the man in black robe. He was not interested in "good things", but he was curious that the man in black robe would regard him as a sales target.

 The man in black robe seemed to be eager to sell him items. He had no reason to ask for anything. What does the man in black robe want?

Angor did not ask immediately, but just smiled and said: "I actually don't have anything I want, but since I'm here, let's take a look at the catalog first."

The man in black robe said nothing, nodded, and pointed to the five boxes on the shelf: "These five boxes contain knowledge, materials, utensils, sundries, and rare objects respectively..."

Knowledge, needless to say, the music score that the man in black robe took before was taken out of the box representing "knowledge". It is an intangible commodity, but its value is estimated to be the heaviest of the five boxes.

 As for the boxes of materials and utensils, the contents inside are also as their names suggest.

 Chance is something that is difficult to classify.

Strange things, the black robe people did not explain more, just mysterious and mysteriously said to Angel: "This is a good thing that can't be seen outside."

“Which catalog in the box does the guest want to see?

Angor did not choose immediately, but first glanced at Laplace next to him. I want to see if Laplace is interested in these things. If he is interested, let Laplace pick them first.

Laplace thought for a while, pointed to the box of "instruments" and said, "I want to see this."

 Utensils? Angel was a little surprised. He had guessed which box Laplace would look at, and the "Tools" box was the lowest-ranked one, because if Laplace wanted to buy any tools or weapons, he could definitely find him to refine them.

 Angle guarantees a custom fit... even for free.

 Could it be that Laplace couldn't trust his refining skills?

 That’s not right either. After looking at the unbreakable mind mirror and the login device, Laplace shouldn’t not believe in his level, right?

Or is Laplace’s choice of “instrument” a hint? Hope he takes the initiative to ask her what she needs?

While Angel was silently interpreting it, Laplace seemed to be aware of Angel's thoughts and said calmly: "I don't have any need for anything, but I've come here, so let's take a look. As for why I chose 'instruments', I just think the appliance box is the last place you’d want to look at compared to other boxes.”

After all, Angel is an alchemist, so he can make it himself if he needs anything.

In Laplace's opinion, the box that Angel would not choose the least was the utensil box. Since Angel didn't choose it, she would just take a look at it and just pass the time.

Is this really the case? Angel muttered something in his mind, but instead of asking Laplace, he turned to look at the man in black robe.

“Then give her the catalog of the utensil box. As for me...then look at the catalog of other boxes.”

The man in black robe didn't say anything. He turned around and tapped each box, and a long list of contents quickly appeared on the lid.

Hand the list representing the utensils was given to Laplace, and the other lists were given to Ingres.

 After Angel took over, the first thing he looked at was the list representing “knowledge”.

 See everything at a glance.

 Half a minute later, Angel returned the knowledge list to the man in black robe.

 “Is the guest dissatisfied?” The man in black robe: “I have other knowledge-related content here, including many taboos...”

Angor interrupted the man in black robe and shook his head: "No need."

The man in black robe opened his mouth and said nothing more.

 It’s not that the content on the knowledge list doesn’t interest him, but that a lot of the knowledge is too off-the-wall and outrageous. For example, "Talk about the Transformation of Polymerized Energy by the Bloodline of the Maid in the Mirror", the main title has already confused Angel, and the subtitle is even more confusing "—Guessing Direction".

OK? Can all guesswork-oriented knowledge be sold as a topic?

In addition, there are some ways to use polymerization energy...which are of little use to Angel.

Of course, not all knowledge is useless, such as "Techniques of Operation of Bloodline Power", "Magic Tree Text (Incomplete, "Magic Patterns and Bloodline"... these all have a certain effect on Angel.

 The one that attracted him the most was naturally the "Magic Tree Text (Incomplete. The so-called "magic science" is a special discipline, similar to magic pattern science. There are many categories in this subject, including magic tree, super magic, magic technology, magic essay... and so on.

Magicology is a very broad subject. It is a hidden science in the Southern Territory and is rarely touched by people. However, it is very popular in the wizarding world in the Northern Territory.

Angor didn’t know much about magic, so he was quite interested when he saw the "Text of the Magic Tree". But in the end he chose to give up, mainly because he knew very well the principle of biting off more than he could chew, and he still had a lot of knowledge waiting to be accumulated. If you try a new subject, you may not achieve anything, but it may be a waste of time.

The most important thing is that Angel knows a little about magic trees, which is a kind of knowledge related to "internal circulation magic plant cultivation".

 What is "internal circulation"? To put it simply, it is cultivating the magic plant in the body. Not only can the magic plant mature quickly, but it can also gain some talent gains through the magic plant. Angel is naturally curious about this kind of technology, even greedy, but as "incomplete" knowledge, it will be difficult to use it if it is not fully learned, and it may even destroy his own internal circulation.

 So, Angel gave up.

 After returning the knowledge list to the man in black robe, Angel looked at the materials list again... There were quite a few materials, but nothing special.

 There are some unknown materials, but judging from the description characteristics, there are many replaceable lower-level materials and even higher-level materials, so there is no need to purchase them at all.

 Hence, Angel only looked at the list of materials for about five minutes before returning it to the man in black robe.

 Although there was nothing that Angel particularly wanted in the materials list and knowledge list, he found an interesting place. Although there are many different categories of knowledge and materials in these two lists, the most frequently occurring words in both lists are the same.

 —bloodline.

The man in black robe seems to be very knowledgeable about bloodlines. Could it be that the other party is a bloodline wizard?

If it is a blood wizard, then he is a human?

It is precisely because he is a human wizard that he said: Even if he pays with magic crystal, is it okay?

Angor didn't know if his guess was correct, but if it was true, it would be such a coincidence... After he came to Crystal City, the two humans he met were both blood wizards.

Yes, the pony-tailed man who called himself Rice God before was also a blood wizard.

Although the rice **** blocked the bloodline aura at first, when he finally handed the badge to Angel, the bloodline fluctuations were too obvious, pure and powerful, and he was either a blood-source wizard or a pure-blood wizard.

As for this man in black robe, there is no energy fluctuation flowing out yet, so there is no way to judge.

 Putting aside his complicated thoughts, Angel picked up the remaining two catalog lists - miscellaneous items and strange items.

Angor took a look at the miscellaneous list and found that it was indeed some things that were difficult to classify. The most important of them are two categories: "semi-finished products" and "unidentified unknown items".

 Semi-finished products, which are similar to alchemy tools, are of little value to Angel.

Angor is quite interested in those "unidentified unknown items".

 An unknown item is like a blind box, no one knows whether it is good or bad.

Angor's interest is naturally not because he wants to "bet on luck", but... he has foreign aid.

Whether it is Laplace or the big guys in the Wilderness of Dreams, maybe they can recognize some good things and let him pick them up?

However, the list only provides general information about these unknown items. If you want to confirm further, you have to see the actual items.

 So, Angel decided to put this list of miscellaneous items aside for now.

The man in black robe saw a hint of joy flashing in his eyes when Angel didn't hand back the list of groceries. Angel returned all the previous lists and expressed no interest, which made him wonder if his products were too cheap.

Now that Angel had left a list of groceries, he breathed a long sigh of relief. As long as you have what you want...if you want something, you can negotiate terms.

 On the other side, Angel picked up the last list of strange objects.

When the man in black robe mentioned the list of strange objects before, although his words were vague, his mood contained "confidence", and he seemed to be very sure about the items in the list of strange objects.

This also made Angel very curious. What is the so-called "wonderful object" that can give the man in black robe so much confidence?

With doubts, Angel looked at this list of strange objects, which was also the shortest list.

 The entire list is no more than the size of an ordinary book page.

 There are only four pieces of information in total.

When Angel saw the first message, Angel was stunned.

 “The smooth arm of the unknown…mysterious…mysterious thing?!”

 Is the record on the strange object a mysterious thing? The man in black robe has something mysterious for sale? !

Angor was startled and couldn't help but look up at the man in black robe. Although this was not the first time he had seen mysterious objects being sold, in his opinion, mysterious objects were basically auction items at large auctions, or one or two occasionally leaked out at high-end parties, rather than appearing like this. In a less formal store.

 Angel's look of surprise also attracted Laplace's attention.

 She looked over in confusion: "What's going on?"

Angor said nothing and pointed to the first message on the paper.

 Laplace frowned after looking at it: "Mysterious things are sold here?"

Angor: "I'm curious too."

Their eyes looked at the man in black robe opposite, and the man in black robe was silent for a moment: "You may have misunderstood, I do not have mysterious objects for sale. What I sell is information about mysterious objects, including their suspected Haunting location.”

"I know information about two mysterious objects. In addition to the 'unknown smooth arm', there is also one..."

Angor picked up the list and continued reading, and found that the next item was indeed a mysterious object, and... Angel was not unfamiliar with this mysterious object.

  —Growth ray.

The wizards of the Southern Territory may not know about the growth ray, but in the source world, this mysterious thing... No, it is more like a mysterious phenomenon than a mysterious thing.

People who have been exposed to the mysterious phenomenon of growth rays will have random organs growing in their bodies.

According to rumors, Gruzdaward's rapid rise was due to the growth ray. It is said that he grew an extraordinary extraordinary organ.

 For this reason, many people are attracted to growth rays.

 But not everyone is as lucky as Gruzdaward. More people died from the growth ray, including famous legendary wizards.

 So, the growth ray is definitely not a "lucky wheel".

Angor knew about the growth ray because Crowley recorded it in his diary.

Even, Crowley clearly pointed out the location of the growth ray—it would appear over Liuye Changdao from time to time.

Angor was very sure that no one had obtained the growth ray, so the man in black robes wrote the growth ray on the list and clearly stated the information about the mysterious thing he was selling.

 Angel believes it.

However, the information about the mysterious thing sounds tempting, but in fact it is just that. No one knows whether this mysterious thing is out of order or whether it will lead to irreversible consequences.

What's more, information like growth rays is not a secret in the source world.

Angor sighed, with some disappointment in his eyes: If it was just intelligence, it would be meaningless.

Angor shook his head and continued reading.
