"What!? They've already been sold!? "
The secret trader market was originally rather quiet, especially since the customers on the second floor were all rich and powerful. Even when they were haggling, they still maintained a polite demeanor like the nobles.
The sudden roar was like a clap of thunder that attracted the attention of everyone on the second floor. In front of the stall of the secret trader that had just sold the seahorse slaves, a few nobles in luxurious clothes were gathered there, and the roar came from the leader.
Those nobles were all more than two meters tall, and looked extremely muscular. Their exposed skin was silvery-white. On their faces, a pair of small mung bean eyes flickered with a frightening radiance. Their bloody mouths were so wide that the corners of their mouths almost reached their necks, and there were gills on both sides of their necks that opened and closed slightly.
Not to mention the people who came here, even a random commoner of the Gilded Kingdom would be able to recognize that these ferocious-looking people were from the Giant Shark Clan, one of the seven overlords of the Endless Ocean. The people in the hall also recognized at a glance that the leader of the Giant Shark Clan was the young lord of the Giant Shark Clan, Gerina.
The Giant Shark Clan controlled the largest sea area of the Endless Ocean, and had the most abundant marine resources. In particular, during the ocean war back then, they had obtained the biggest piece of the pie, and obtained countless benefits. Among the seven overlords of the Endless Ocean, if the Giant Shark Clan was said to be the second strongest, no one would dare to say that they were the strongest. In fact, they even had a chance of becoming the ruler of the Endless Ocean.
However, the strength of the Giant Shark Clan had not reached the point where they could suppress all the sea clans. After a few large-scale battles, they finally lost to the joint forces of several sea clans. However, it was also because the Giant Shark Clan had stopped in time that they were still a deterrent to the other clans even though they had suffered huge losses during the ocean war.
As for the current Colossal Shark Clan, no one knew just how strong they were. However, what was certain was that they were definitely stronger than they were before the great ocean war. After so many years of recuperation, coupled with the digestion and absorption of the gains from the ocean war, the other sea clans had developed to an unprecedented level, let alone the Giant Shark Clan. If the Giant Shark Clan could not even reach their previous level, they would not be qualified to be one of the seven overlords.
Thus, when they saw that the person making the ruckus was actually the Colossal Shark Race's Young Lord Gerina, the nobles of the various races immediately turned their gazes away. Everyone knew that the Colossal Shark Race was famous for being unreasonable. These people didn't even need to mention criticizing them. Even looking at them for a moment longer would make Greiner unhappy.
Facing the Giant Shark Race's Young Lord Gerina, the high-grade secret trader secretly wiped away his sweat. He couldn't help but rejoice inwardly, 'Thank goodness I sold the Seahorse Race slaves to someone else in advance. Otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to recoup my capital.'
Although the Secret Trade Alliance had a high reputation in the Boundless Ocean and was known to ensure fair trade in the market, the Secret Trade Alliance had a high reputation. However, there was no such thing as absolute fairness in this world. Even the Secret Trade Alliance would not go against the overlord of the sea, the Giant Shark Race, for a single Secret Trade Alliance. On one side was the Giant Shark Race's Young Lord, and on the other side was just a high-grade Secret Trade Alliance. Anyone would know what to choose.
Facing the Giant Shark Race's Young Lord Gerina, this high-grade Secret Trade Alliance could not help but put on an extremely respectful attitude even though he was wearing a mask. He said, "Esteemed customer, it's really unfortunate. The sixty-seven Seahorse Race slaves you mentioned have indeed been bought by someone else."
After receiving confirmation, Gerina couldn't help but clench his fists secretly. However, he still suppressed the anger in his heart. No matter what, the Secret Trade Alliance's name still carried some weight. If this was outside, he wouldn't care if the merchant in front of him was reasonable or not. Since he had made a wasted trip, he had to pay the price.
At this moment, perhaps afraid that Gerina would not be able to control his temper, one of the Giant Shark Race clansmen standing beside him asked the Secret Trade Alliance on his behalf, "Then let me ask you, who bought the Seahorse Race slaves? I believe that anyone who can come here can't be ignorant. You should know them, right?"
Those who were able to become secret merchants, and high-grade ones at that, naturally had their own information channels. Besides, although Lin Li had just arrived in the Gilded Kingdom, he had already done two earth-shattering things. It would be strange if the Secret Trade Alliance did not know Lin Li. Since the goods had already been sold, there was naturally no need for the Secret Trade Alliance to keep it a secret for Lin Li. Hence, without hesitation, he said, "Yes, the one who bought those Seahorse Race slaves is the president of the Tower of Dusk from the Breezy Plains, Felic."
"Breezy Plains, Tower of Dusk?" Perhaps because he had just arrived in the Gilded Kingdom, Gerina was a little unfamiliar with the name. After all, among the many forces in the Endless Ocean, there had never been a force called the Tower of Dusk before.
Seeing this situation, the Secret Trade Alliance hurriedly explained before Gerina could ask, "Yes, they were just invited by the Gilded Kingdom this year to participate in the Gilded Kingdom's National Day Celebration. Besides, they've caused quite a commotion with the Gilded Kingdom not long after they arrived. "
Then, the Secret Trade Alliance briefly told Gerina and the others about the two things that happened between the Gilded Kingdom and the Tower of Dusk. Those two things were not complicated in the first place. It was nothing more than the Tower of Dusk slapping the Gilded Kingdom in the face, but the Gilded Kingdom had no choice but to tolerate it for some reason.
"Hmph, Bradlor is really becoming more and more backward! That's how humans are. They can't be happy with anything they do, "Gerina said in disdain after hearing that. He did not think that the Tower of Dusk, which he had never heard of before, was really that powerful. It was likely that Bradlor was being overcautious again because of the Kingdom's National Day Celebration.
It was not strange for Gerina to have such thoughts, and he was definitely not the only one who had such thoughts. On one side was the powerful human kingdom of the Endless Ocean, and on the other side was a nameless force from the Breezy Plains. Anyone with a normal mind would be able to tell who was stronger and who was weaker.
In fact, there were only a few people who really knew the reason behind it. Even some ministers of the Gilded Kingdom did not know the reason. Even with the information channels of this high-level secret trader, it was impossible for him to find out more information. What he told Gerina was only information that was known to everyone.
Upon hearing that the person who bought the seahorse slaves was a nameless force, one of Gerina's subordinates stepped forward, and said, "Young Lord, since the seahorse slaves have just been sold, they must not be too far away now. Do you want me to bring some people to chase after them and get them back?"
"There's no hurry. Do we still have to worry about them running away now that we know who has them?" Although Gerina was a little angry at first, he was no longer anxious at this time. To him, it was enough to know who had the seahorse slaves. Not to mention that the seahorse slaves were in the hands of a nameless force, he was confident that he could get them back even if they were in the hands of the Gilded Kingdom.
In Gerina's opinion, those seahorse slaves basically belonged to him as long as they did not fall into the hands of the Giant Shark Clan's enemies. Hence, he was not in a hurry at this time, and continued to wander around the secret trader market with his subordinates while buying some things that caught his eye.
At this time, Lin Li and the others had already returned to the embassy of the Tower of Dusk. Lin Li first handed the broken King of Hunters' Blade to the Vampire Norfeller, and told him how to use the King of Hunters' Blade.
The King of Hunters' Blade was the culmination of the peak skills of mortals. Even if it was broken, it was still a very powerful magical weapon. However, why was there so little interest in the King of Hunters' Blade in the secret trader market? The only selling points were its source and sharpness. In fact, it was because there was a special set of methods to use the King of Hunters' Blade and activate its power. Not everyone could use it. In the entire Anril, Lin Li was probably the only one who knew how to use it apart from the Immortal King.
After Norfeller received the King of Hunters' Blade, he activated the mageweath on it according to Lin Li's method. Immediately, the broken dagger was wrapped in a layer of faint silver light, and there was a faint sword ray that was a few meters long in front of it. However, there was not a single trace of mana fluctuations in the sword ray. If one did not look at it with both eyes, it would seem as if it did not exist at all.
In the game world, although the King of Hunters' Blade was a weapon of the Hunter profession, there was actually not much difference between Hunters and Assassins. It was just that the targets they hunted were different. Besides, in many cases, magical beasts were actually much more sensitive to danger than humans. Hence, the King of Hunters' Blade had the ability to hide its aura, which was also a very useful ability for Assassins.
Of course, aura concealment was only one of the abilities of the King of Hunters' Blade. The real power of the King of Hunters' Blade was still its power. The pair of Heaven's Wrath daggers that Norfeller originally used were actually quite powerful magical weapons after being embedded with the Gem of Resentment. However, Norfeller was now already a Sanctuary-level powerhouse, and the power of the Heaven's Wrath daggers seemed to be a little insufficient in a battle of the Sanctuary-realm.
The King of Hunters' Blade was named after the King of Hunters, and it was said to be able to kill all beasts in the world. Although it was a little exaggerated, its power was definitely extraordinary. In the game world, just like in Anril, there were also many very powerful magical beasts, not just tigers and lions. In front of the King Hunter's Blade, even the scales and skin of the Giant Dragons, which were known for their defense, could be easily sliced apart like paper.
The King of Hunters' Blade was in Norfeller's hands, and under the activation of the power of the Sanctuary-realm, it would definitely exert greater power. In fact, even the Domain World of ordinary Sanctuary powerhouses might not be able to withstand it.
After getting Norfeller to familiarize himself with the King of Hunters' Blade, Lin Li did not idle around. He chanted a spell to open a spatial rift that led to the Sky Castle, and strode in. After returning to the Sky Castle, Lin Li handed the Netherworld Pearls that he had obtained to his subordinates who were in charge of forging magical weapons, and asked them to forge new weapons for the Retribution Knights.
In addition, Lin Li also arranged for Wilkinson and the others who were in charge of the preparation of potions to slightly increase the quantity of the Nether Servant's Blessing Potion. He was certain that the news of the secret trader's market would soon spread, and by then, there would definitely be many people coming to the Tower of Dusk to buy the Nether Servant's Blessing Potion. However, as the saying went, the rarer something was, the greater its value. Although the cost of the Nether Servant's Blessing Potion was very low, Lin Li would not really supply it freely. How could he not rip off those merchants?
By the time Lin Li returned to the Gilded Kingdom again, the sky was already bright. However, as soon as he stepped out of the spatial rift, he heard that there seemed to be some commotion outside. Dorick, the deputy leader of the mages, was waiting outside the room.
Lin Li walked out of the inner room, and when he saw Dorick waiting for him, he asked while sorting out his gains from the secret trader's market, "Dorick, what's the commotion outside?"
Dorick originally looked a little anxious, but upon seeing that Lin Li had finally returned, he heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately bowed. He said, "President, there are a few people from the Giant Shark Clan outside, and they want you to hand over the seahorse slaves you bought last night. Judging from the way they address them, their leader is the prince of the Giant Shark Clan. "
"Hand them over?" Lin Li couldn't help but sneer when he heard this. Not to mention the fact that the seahorse slaves were useful to him, even if they weren't, he wouldn't hand them over for no reason. The Giant Shark Clan was rather famous in the Endless Ocean, and they were vaguely the leader of the seven ocean overlords. However, they were far from being able to scare him.
Just then, another mage from the Mage Squad came in and asked through the door, "Vice-captain Dorick, is the President not back yet? The few people from the Giant Shark Clan outside said that if Mr. President still doesn't appear, they will barge in by themselves. Connoris and Norfeller are stopping them. "
"Let Connoris and Norfeller get rid of them. Don't worry about anything," Lin Li instructed Dorick, and continued to sort out the things in his hands. He didn't want to waste time on the Giant Shark Clan at all.
At this moment, Connoris and Norfeller, as well as Ujfalusi, who had just arrived, and the mages of the Tower of Dusk, were at the entrance of the embassy. In front of them was a group of aggressive Giant Shark Clansmen. With the aesthetic habits of humans, it was really difficult to tell the difference between the Giant Shark Clan from their appearance alone. Fortunately, the clothes of the Giant Shark Clan had a very obvious hierarchy, which allowed others to tell the difference between them.
Apart from some guards, there were five people who seemed to have the highest status among the Giant Shark Clan, and one of them seemed to be more distinguished from the others. The leader of the five was the prince of the Giant Shark Clan, and he was already at the peak of the Legendary-realm. With the innate divine power of the Giant Shark Clan, even ordinary Sanctuary powerhouses might not be able to take him down. The other four people were also rather famous in the Endless Ocean, and they were known as the four Immortal Generals of the Giant Shark Clan. Their abilities were all in the Sanctuary-realm.
