Chapter 959: Homs
"There are always some little ones who are not polite!" Nicholas spat in a curse, and the powerful creature of his third-level heavenly knight made the surrounding peeping eyes converge a lot.
As for those fellow third-level guys, after seeing the Obsidian Legion medal that seemed to be unintentionally exposed on Nicholas's chest, they also cursed secretly, and no longer paid attention to Nicholas and Locke, who had just entered the city.
Nicholas's performance Locke saw it in his eyes, thick and fine, referring to people like Nicholas.
"Let's go, come with me to an old place. Nicholas greeted Locke and made his way to an alley in the inner city.
Judging from Nicholas's words and the Obsidian Legion Medal he has, this person is definitely a frequent visitor to the Dark City, and the people who can often come to the Dark City are definitely not fools that everyone kneads, and it is Nicholas's sophisticated performance that makes many guys who try to hit their attention put away their thoughts.
As for Locke, who has not spoken much, although he is a little tender, but his biological coercion, which is also a heavenly knight, cannot be faked, unless four third-level powerhouses are gathered to attack them together, this bone is not easy to gnaw.
As he and Nicholas went deep into the inner city of the Dark City, the surrounding peeps and scrutiny gradually decreased, and Locke finally had a basic understanding of the territory of the dark mages in the Davel region.
In the wizarding world, under the dual rules of many holy towers and knights' halls, it is strictly forbidden for the powerhouses above the first level of the plane to kill each other, especially after entering the second level, this phenomenon is even more severe.
Locke really didn't expect that in the wizarding world, there were native creatures who would pay attention to him.
"Don't care about those guys, there aren't a few of them whose strength can make me look good, including those third-level heavenly knights. Nicholas sneered from the side.
Although fighting is not forbidden in the dark city, this is the inner city, compared to the chaos of the outer city, after the inner city has many third-level powerhouses, some conventional rules have gradually been established.
As the captain of the Nicholas Obsidian Legion, as long as he has an accident here today and the news comes back, not to mention what reaction the Belen Imperial military will have, at least the brothers of the Obsidian Legion will not give up.
The scum who mingled in the Dark City has always been a newcomer to the bullying scene.
Fortunately, Locke came with Nicholas today, and if it was just Locke, I'm afraid he would have to do it.
This is also the 'Liwei' that newcomers must do when they first come to the Dark City.
The City of Darkness is not something that cats and dogs can come to roam, it is a sinful place that eats people and does not spit out bones.
Following Nicholas, Locke and the two walked all the way to an inconspicuous alchemy shop in the northeastern part of the inner city.
It is said to be an alchemy shop, but there is not even a plaque in front of the door, and the light in the store is extremely dark, the reason is that the windows around are sealed with black curtains, giving people a grotesque and weird atmosphere.
The store was empty and quiet, showing that they were the first customers to come here today.
"Cohen, get out of here, I've come to take care of your business!" Nicholas shouted as soon as he entered the store, and his voice shook the wooden shelves in the store slightly.
Not long after, a young man wrapped in a black cloak walked out of the secret door behind the counter, this black cloak was obviously a magic equipment, and it actually blocked Locke's mental power detection, so that Locke couldn't even see what this person looked like, and could only judge that he had the strength of a second-level magician.
"Oh, this isn't Lord Nicholas, it's a rarity. The young man chuckled in a low voice, judging from the tone of his words, there was no respect that a second-level powerhouse should have for a third-level powerhouse.
"Holmes, why are you?" Nicholas frowned, and it was the man who appeared, which surprised him a little.
"Cohen, my poor junior brother, because he messed up one of the mentor's important magic experiments, was thrown directly into the elemental pool by the mentor and turned into nothingness, hum!" the young man, Holmes, said in a low voice.
In this deep voice, mockery and schadenfreude took up most of it, and it seemed that Holmes did not have any sadness because he was missing a junior brother.
After getting Holmes's answer, Nicholas squeezed his fist with a 'beep' sound, and he was simply about to turn around and leave, but Holmes at the counter behind him said, "Lord Nicholas, why should you leave in a hurry, although my unlucky ghost brother is dead, don't you still have me, the discount he gave you, I will give you half of the discount!"
Holmes's words really stopped Nicholas from leaving, he had a good friendship with this Holmes junior brother, but it was based on many friendly transactions and cooperation.
Now that Cohen has been killed by his mentor, Nicholas will have to find another partner if he wants to sell any goods or resources in the Dark City.
This Holmes's strength is average, only the level of a second-level magician, but this guy is scheming, and if the mentor is still that person, he can indeed meet most of Nicholas's needs.
"Okay, as you said, on the basis of Cohen's original discount, add half percent!" Nicholas said with a vicious glare at Holmes.
"Of course. Holmes replied with a frown.
Nicholas needs Holmes's supply channels in the Dark City and various alchemy items made by his mentor, and Holmes needs the help of Nicholas, the leader of the Obsidian Legion from the Belém Empire.
Holmes' mentor is not a good talker, and if the revenue generated by Holmes' shop in the Dark City does not satisfy his mentor, his brother Cohen is a living example.
Having reached the level of a second-level magician at a young age, Holmes didn't want to follow in his junior brother's footsteps so early.
"Is Nicholas going to sell something this time? or buying something, my mentor just made a batch of Radiant Thunder last month. Holmes said with a smile.
Luminous Thunder is a rare one-time attack-type magic prop, the power of a single explosion is comparable to that of a second-level powerhouse, if more than a dozen are used together, even the third-level powerhouse has to temporarily avoid the edge, which is one of the commonly used war props in the middle of the price but very easy to use.
Obviously, Holmes knew what Nicholas, who often needed to fight on the battlefield of the heteroplane, needed most.
