Although Aoki was wearing a large black robe, the receptionist did not show any strange expression. This was Jinhuang City, and any kind of person could appear here. Aoki was not an exception.
Aoki did not speak. He took out the Rocket Team ID card from his pocket. When he left the island, Ying had already changed his identity from a trial-taker to an "honorable" Rocket Team soldier.
Seeing Aoki take out the Rocket Team ID card, the receptionist's expression changed slightly. He immediately led Aoki into a dark room.
Without speaking, he took Aoki's ID card and swiped it on a computer. When he saw the information on the computer screen, he sighed in relief and handed the card back to Aoki.
Then, he pressed a button under the table, and a hidden door opened on the ground.
"Go in. You are not allowed to cause trouble or fight inside." The receptionist said expressionlessly.
After saying that, he turned around and left the room.
Aoki did not know how many times he had come here in his previous life, so he was very familiar with this process. He did not hesitate and directly walked down the stairs of the hidden door.
After he had completely entered, the secret door automatically closed, leaving no trace behind.
Following the sound of footsteps, a faint light lit up, allowing people to see the stairs.
Aoki walked down the stairs for nearly five minutes before he finally reached the bottom. The originally narrow corridor was now very wide, and he arrived at a large hall.
In the large hall, there were many similar corridors that Aoki had just walked out of. They led to different areas, and they were spread all over Jinhuang City.
There were as many as ten halls like this in the entire black market, and each hall had ten corridors.
Although Jinhuang City was very big, through these corridors, most of the areas in Jinhuang City could be directly connected to the black market. Aoki's corridor was only guarded by the Rocket Team.
Stepping out of the hall's only door, he saw a wide road. There were all kinds of people on the road, and they were expressionless and cold.
There were also some people like Aoki, wrapped in black robes. Moreover, there were many people like this, so Aoki's arrival did not attract much attention.
This was the Guandong region's largest underground market, a huge underground city, Jinhuang City's black market!
Walking on the streets, there were countless large and small roads here. Aoki saw many members of the Rocket Team who did not hide their identity, arrogantly walking in the middle of the road. Others did not say anything about their behavior, and even people who passed by them would keep a distance.
Obviously, as the biggest power in the underground black market, the members of the Rocket Team had a high status here.
However, Aoki did not intend to reveal his identity. Although the members of the Rocket Team had a lot of privileges, it did not mean that everyone was afraid of them.
If one displayed a value that didn't match one's strength, those fugitives with sharp noses like hyenas wouldn't care about one's identity. By the time one left the underground city, one would most likely be dead.
"Come out, Dark Crow!"
Aoki released Dark Crow from the Pokeball and let him stand on his shoulder.
Although Dark Crow's weight had increased again, Aoki's developing body had also improved greatly. Now that Dark Crow stood on Aoki's shoulder, it was not unbearable.
However, this was a necessary action. In order to avoid being targeted in the black market, it was necessary to show off one's muscles and strength.
After Aoki released Dark Crow, the hidden gazes gradually shifted away from him.
Obviously, the fierce aura and faint smell of blood on Dark Crow, who had come out of the trial island, made the desperadoes, who lived on the edge of their blades, feel threatened.
Although it was Aoki's first time in this life, he was very familiar with the places and what items were sold. In the unchanging black market, every area sold different items.
Without any hesitation, Aoki walked straight to the area where Wisp items were sold.
The black market mainly had some shops, but there were also some special streets reserved for trainers to sell their own items. Usually, these places were the most chaotic. There were some very precious items, but there were also some seemingly precious fake items. As for what one could buy, it was entirely up to the individual's taste.
Aoki didn't go to these places. The most important thing for him now was to earn some Alliance coins and then buy energy cube crafting tools. These things were basically not available in small shops. Only the larger shops would sell them.
He walked directly into the largest shop in the Wisp items selling area. This shop was opened by the Rocket Team, so it enjoyed the best resources and was located in the best location.
It was different from the shop at the entrance. There was a dazzling array of items in this shop. It was almost filled with people. Some were selling things, and some were buying things.
Aoki walked with ease to a counter that had just been vacated. There was a sign on the counter that said "Appraisal".
There were more than a dozen appraisal counters in the shop. Behind each counter sat a staff member with the Rocket Team badge on their chest. They were expressionless as they mechanically appraised every item placed in front of them. After the appraisal, they reported a purchase price. Whether the seller wanted to sell the item or not, they had to pay 500 Alliance coins.
There were many people appraising items, but very few people actually sold them. This was because the Rocket Team's purchase price wasn't high.
However, it was very formulaic. They wouldn't be greedy just because the item was very precious. Therefore, many people would come here to appraise the price of their unknown items.
It was because of this that the Rocket Team's reputation in the black market was very good.
Most people would rent a small stall on the street after the appraisal and place their items on it. This way, they could sell it at a higher price. Correspondingly, it would take a lot more time to complete the appraisal.
If they weren't in urgent need of money, most people would do this.
Aoki sat down on the chair in front of the counter. He didn't say anything. He took out a glass bottle from the Rocket Team's storage belt. It was filled with some milky white liquid. Under the light, it emitted a faint fluorescent light.
This was the item that Aoki wanted to exchange for money. It was also the most suitable item for him to exchange for Alliance coins. It was geocentric milk.
Before Aoki came to the black market, he used a relatively small bottle and filled it to the brim. It was almost one-twentieth of his total amount, which was half of his original bottle.
