6,000,000 gold coins was nothing to Lin Li, but in the eyes of others, spending 6,000,000 gold coins on a broken dagger was really foolish. Hence, Lin Li shook his head, and looked at the secret dealer with a hint of mockery in his eyes. "6,000,000 gold coins for a broken dagger? You really have the guts to offer such a price!"
"Sir, you can't say that. Although this dagger is broken, you've seen how sharp it is. Moreover, this is something that came out of the Cursed Island. The few things that came out together back then were all sold for tens of millions of gold coins. It's because it's broken that I'm only asking for 6,000,000 gold coins from you. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy it even with 60,000,000 gold coins. " The tone of the secret dealer with the eagle head mask was not at all embarrassed, as if the broken dagger was really an artifact.
"Don't say that it came from the Cursed Island. It's meaningless. If I want to collect it, I can buy something even older. A broken dagger is broken, and even the mageweath on it is not complete. All that's left is its sharpness. Your price of 6,000,000 is too absurd. It seems that you don't intend to sell it. " After Lin Li said that, he used a very common and effective method to turn around and leave.
In the face of such a situation, if the merchant was very confident in his goods, he would naturally not be afraid of the customer playing hard to get. However, the secret dealer with the eagle mask obviously didn't have much confidence in the broken dagger. He hurriedly shouted, "Wait a minute, this customer, please wait a minute. Since you think my price is too high, what price are you going to offer?"
Lin Li's statement was actually not exaggerated. In fact, it was very true on a certain level. The most important thing for a magical weapon was the Magical Array or mageweath on it. However, the mageweath of a broken dagger naturally could not be complete anymore. An incomplete mageweath could not exert any power, so what was left of the dagger other than its sharpness?
Of course, apart from Lin Li himself, no one would know that the reason why the King of Hunters' Blade had become the King of Hunters' Blade was because the mageweath that determined its power was not on the flat surface of the blade, but on the cross-section of the blade. It was like countless pieces of paper with the same pattern stacked on top of each other. Even if they were broken in the middle, the remaining parts would still contain countless complete mageweaths, but their power would be slightly reduced.
After being stopped by the auctioneer with the eagle head mask, Lin Li turned around with an indifferent expression, and said, "Its sharpness and its origin are only worth a million gold coins. There's no need to negotiate more than that."
One million gold coins wasn't a huge sum of money for the secret merchants who were able to enter this place. But after all, the dagger's flaws were clearly displayed. If he sold it for 1,000,000 gold coins, it would still be a huge profit.
"A million gold coins is too little. I spent more than a million gold coins to get this dagger …" The auctioneer with the eagle head mask was about to raise the price, but he saw that Lin Li was about to leave without saying anything. He quickly said, "Alright, alright, a million gold coins. I'll treat it as making a friend!"
After paying a million gold coins, Lin Li finally got back the King of Hunters' Blade that once belonged to him. Actually, he was now a mage. Not to mention a broken King of Hunters' Blade, even a complete King of Hunters' Blade would not be of much use to him. However, he didn't buy the King of Hunters' Blade for himself, but for the Vampire Norfeller.
The weapon that Norfeller had been using was the pair of Heaven's Wrath daggers that he had bought from the Time Consignment Store. The Heaven's Wrath daggers were indeed a good weapon, especially after being installed with the Gem of the Curse. However, this good weapon was only suitable for Legendary-level powerhouses. Now that Norfeller had become a Sanctuary powerhouse, the Heaven's Wrath daggers were a little insufficient.
Although the King of Hunters' Blade was broken, its power was still much stronger than that of the Heaven's Wrath daggers. With Norfeller's Sanctuary-level power and the King of Hunters' Daggers, his combat power would definitely be a huge leap compared to before. Moreover, the King of Hunters' Daggers had another strong point, and that was the unassuming scabbard that could completely shield the dagger's power waves. It was the most suitable weapon for an assassin.
After getting the King of Hunters' Blade, Lin Li couldn't help but think of the shocking fact that he had discovered in the underground world of the Cursed Island. Even a powerful weapon like the King of Hunters' Blade had been broken. One could imagine how earth-shattering the battle between the Immortal King and the Ancient God of Light had been.
Unfortunately, he only had the King of Hunters' Blade now. If he could get the entire King of Hunters' Set and equip it for Norfeller, he would probably have no problem dealing with a Sanctuary powerhouse at the peak of the Sanctuary-realm.
Being able to obtain the former King of Hunters' Blade from the secret trade market was no less valuable to Lin Li than the Netherworld Pearls even though it was already broken. Lin Li had the ability to collect the Netherworld Pearls himself, but he didn't want to waste time. However, there was only one King of Hunters' Blade in the entire Anril.
Of course, the King of Hunters' Blade represented the pinnacle of mortal skills, after all. If Lin Li reached the peak of the Guru-level in all related fields one day, he might be able to create a weapon that was not inferior to the King of Hunters' Blade. However, that would also take time. Now that he had reached the peak of the Guru-level in the field of Inscription, and had also comprehended some of the secrets of the Divine Smith Plane, creating a weapon like the King of Hunters' Blade required more than just Inscription.
After getting the King of Hunters' Blade, Lin Li took a closer look at the broken part, and became more and more certain of his previous guess. The King of Hunters' Blade was not the Immortal King's main weapon, but the Stars of Fury and the seven pieces of the debris of the stars. Even Lin Li himself had almost eliminated the King of Hunters' Blade after obtaining the Stars of Fury and the debris of the stars in the game world. He only brought it with him to activate the set attributes.
Although the King Hunter's Blade was not comparable to the Stars of Fury, it was still the pinnacle of the mortal's skills. Yet, such a powerful weapon had actually been broken in that battle. That power was probably enough to turn any Sanctuary powerhouse into ashes in an instant. When the Immortal King killed the Dragon of Destruction, he had never heard of him using the King of Hunters' Blade. However, it had been broken in the battle with the Ancient God of Light. Clearly, the Immortal King had not won easily.
Fortunately, I didn't release the Ancient God of Light back then! Lin Li was a little afraid. If the Ancient God of Light had been released, he and the people from the Illuminati would probably not have been able to defeat the Ancient God of Light at all. Not to mention the debris of the stars, even if he had the Stars of Fury, he wouldn't be able to resist at all.
For now, Lin Li was already very satisfied with his gains in the secret trader market. Even if he left now, he wouldn't have any regrets. Besides, this was only the first floor of the secret trader market. It was said that the real good things had to be found on the second floor. However, it would be impossible for Lin Li to pick up treasures like that on the second floor. The value of the items there would definitely not be much difference from the price.
Of course, if he really encountered something useful, Lin Li wouldn't mind paying more money. He was not a miser. Money was only valuable when it was spent. It would be a pile of garbage if he kept it.
Lin Li soon arrived at the second floor of the cabin with Connoris and Angelano. The hall on the second floor was obviously much more luxurious than the one below. The floor was covered with a red gold velvet carpet, and the surrounding walls were also resplendent. Although the space on this floor was slightly smaller than the one below, it seemed to be more spacious due to the fact that there were fewer high-level secret traders.
The selling method on this floor was similar to the one below, but basically all the goods were clearly priced, and there were also very detailed instructions and some certificates issued by the Secret Trade Alliance. There was basically no need to worry about buying fake or substandard goods here. However, the prices were indeed really high.
After walking through a few stalls, Lin Li already had a general understanding of the quality of the goods on this floor. He couldn't help but sigh at the means of these high-level secret traders. It would not be an exaggeration to say that these high-level secret traders had access to everything. Any of the goods they sold would be priceless treasures outside.
As soon as they entered the second floor, Lin Li saw a blue dragon egg that was about to hatch. Just like the Crimson Dragon, the blue dragon was a descendant of the ancient wyrms. The Crimson Dragon was a descendant of the Fire Dragons, while the blue dragon was a descendant of the Iceblast Wyrms.
An adult blue dragon could reach the peak of the Legendary-level, and was even stronger than the Green Dragon King that Lin Li had encountered previously. However, adult wyrms were very proud, and would never be willing to become the subordinate of other creatures. Even the High Elves back then could not really tame an adult wyrm.
However, if it was an egg of a wyrm, and someone could hatch and raise it to adulthood, they would be recognized by the wyrm and become a powerful and rare wyrm knight. Clearly, the value of a wyrm egg was even more precious than that of an adult wyrm.
For ordinary people, it was not easy to hatch and raise a wyrm to adulthood. Not to mention the fact that with the lifespan of a human, it would be difficult to wait for a wyrm to reach adulthood, and the cost of nurturing it would be astronomical. The food of a wyrm alone was enough to bankrupt a medium-sized force. However, in order for a wyrm to grow to its fullest potential, it needed more than just filling its stomach.
However, the people who could enter this place were naturally wealthy, and there were many who had Legendary-level strength. Hence, it was not impossible to nurture a wyrm. Hence, it did not take long for the wyrm egg to be bought by a noble Sword Sage at the price of 10,000,000 gold coins.
Wyrm eggs were not that impressive in this secret trader market. There were also the eggs or young of various marine magical beasts. For example, the young of the Hydra was not inferior to the wyrm egg. Once it grew up, it would definitely be an overlord of the sea, and its strength might even be stronger than that of a wyrm.
In addition to these magical beast eggs or young, there were also some adult marine magical beasts for sale in the market. However, those adult marine magical beasts were often quite large, and could not be placed there. Outside the Mermaid, the cargo ships that surrounded it were loaded with this kind of large cargo. After a deal was reached here, the Secret Trade Alliance would come forward to help complete the handover of the goods.
Adult marine magical beasts were often not as intelligent as wyrms, so they were not as difficult to tame as wyrms. Of course, it was basically impossible to tame such a marine magical beast as a combat partner. It could only become a powerful tool. However, for ordinary people, having a powerful marine magical beast to survive in the Endless Ocean was also a powerful assistant.
For example, if a merchant fleet on the sea could have a powerful sea magical beast patrolling and protecting them while they were sailing, they could avoid the harassment of many pirate groups. An adult Legendary-level marine magical beast was a terrifying existence in the sea, and it would be too easy for it to destroy a pirate crew. Of course, if a pirate crew had a marine magical beast, it would be much easier for them to rob a merchant fleet.
However, be it wyrm eggs or marine magical beasts, they were basically useless to Lin Li. He now had no shortage of individual Legendary-level combat power. In a battle of the Sanctuary-realm, individual Legendary-level combat power would not play much of a role. It would only be useful if they were on a large scale like the Retribution Knights.
Besides, Lin Li still had a Crimson Dragon, whose strength was not inferior to that of a real adult wyrm. There was really no need to waste time and resources on a young wyrm or a young marine magical beast.
In addition to those living creatures, the secret traders also had plenty of magical beast corpses. However, they were not ordinary marine magical beasts, but marine magical beasts from the prehistoric times. During the prehistoric times, prehistoric magical beasts ran rampant in Anril, and there were also many terrifying magical beasts living in the Endless Ocean. Some of them were even stronger than the ancient wyrms.
In the booth of a high-grade secret trader, there was a huge eye of a primitive savage whale. The eyeball was as tall as a grown man and seemed to be carved out of a whole piece of sapphire. It exuded a vicissitude and domineering aura. The power emitted by the eye of the prehistoric savage whale was not inferior to that of a Sanctuary powerhouse. It was also very powerful.
During the prehistoric times, the prehistoric savage whale was the absolute overlord of the Endless Ocean, and could turn the entire sea into its own Domain World. Even Sanctuary-level power could not break it. However, the power of the prehistoric savage whale and its mastery of the World Laws came from its magical crystal, just like other magical beasts. Hence, although the eye seemed very powerful, and contained mana that was not inferior to a Sanctuary-level magical crystal, that was all.
