Chapter 104 The Eye of Insight

"It doesn't matter. Where is the NPC you mentioned? If it's not far away, let's go now." Ma Hao said a little anxiously. After all, he had something in his hand that he couldn't use but could be sold at a good price in the market, which made him feel very blocked.

"In my main city, Wind City, there is a run-down appraiser, not too far from the teleportation array. If Brother Shadow can pay for the teleportation, I don't mind going back once." Phantom joked, his smile set off by his white robe, which made people think of the word 'cheap'.

"Then let's go." Lu Hao pinched his nose and looked at Phantom's smirk. Phantom's action reminded him of Lin Zhifei. He wondered how Lin Zhifei was doing recently. He was busy with those reselling things all day long. Did he gain weight?

……

Yanhuang City Teleportation Array

Phantom shook his sleeves generously and walked to the old man who was watching over the teleportation array. He pointed at Ma Yingjie and said, "He pays for the fare." Then he disappeared into the white light of the teleportation array.

Ma Yingjie gritted his teeth and took the two people's transportation fees, deciding to get back at them after the matter was over. Being treated like a fat sheep by others was something Ma Yingjie could not tolerate.

……

The City of Wind is just like its name. The buildings in the whole city give people a feeling of lightness. The main color of the streets is light blue like diluted ink. The whole city gives people a feeling of being in a fantasy world.

On the wide street, the two people walked one after the other without speaking. The shops on both sides of the street were crowded with players. This was the most popular game in recent years. No matter what time it was, people reached an almost crazy level.

Especially since the unlimited distribution of gaming helmets began in the past few days, the influx of a large number of new players has pushed the number of people online at all times to a terrifying number of 8000 million. Compared with the highest number of online players in previous years reaching 40000 million, Blood Cry has undoubtedly set a new record in the online gaming industry with its absolute advantage.

Although the new players did not bring much pressure to the high-level players, the feeling of joining forces was really unpleasant. Moreover, both of them were weak mages. After being squeezed by the crowd many times, Ma Yingjie had to sigh that China was indeed a country with a large population.

The two of them managed to survive in the crowd with great difficulty. After turning into a small path, Lu Hao was finally able to take a breath. The two warrior players had sandwiched Lu Hao in the middle, making Lu Hao experience a sub-space feeling with his feet dangling in the air. It was really unpleasant.

"It's not far ahead." With the weak words of the phantom, Lu Hao's sluggish spirit suddenly regained its vitality. Looking around, the dilapidated streets were full of potholes and mud, and the wooden houses on both sides were shaky in the wind and rain, as if they could turn from magic to decay at any time and contribute to the underground coal industry.

"This seems to be a slum kiln." Lu Hao looked at the phantom uncertainly, his eyes full of doubts. After all, a wizard running to such a ghost place made people wonder whether his head had been hit hard and closely by some animal, because the system master had clearly announced that the slum kiln was designed to show the realism of the game, and the probability of triggering a task in such a place was n times smaller than that in a downtown area.

Because of what the system master said, the slums in major cities have become deserted areas. Of course, this deserted area refers to the players, and low-level NPCs are still everywhere.

"The great sage hides in the city, don't you understand?" The phantom wiped off the sweat squeezed out by others and said in a literary way, which made Ma Yingjie ashamed. Is there another saying that the stock market is more ferocious than a tiger?

Following the phantom to a dilapidated gate, seeing the spider webs on the doors and windows in front of him, Lu Hao felt that the NPC had passed away and he had come here in vain. However, a slight cough from the house calmed Lu Hao's depressed mood. It seemed that it was not easy for the NPC to die.

"Master Zodis, I'm here to see you. I wonder if you're feeling well lately and if you're taking your medicine regularly. You should take care of your illness."

"Hehe, thank you for your kindness, kid. It's not easy for me to die. This body has been with me for nearly a thousand years..." Zodis tried hard to force a smile on his wrinkled face, which made people feel sad. Is this the embarrassing state of everyone when they get old?

Thousand years? Another damn old guy who has lived for nearly a thousand years and still hasn't entered the coffin. Why does the system let these NPCs who should have died long ago live so vigorously? Is it for the progress of the game, or is it just out of boredom?

"By the way, what are you looking for me for this time? I don't believe you would come here just to see me. Tell me what it is." Zodis held back a violent cough, his face became much redder, and he said in one breath.

"It's like this. My friend obtained a bound equipment, but the problem is that this equipment is not suitable for his profession, so I brought him here to see if the equipment can be unbound." Phantom explained the purpose of this trip in detail, and at the same time there was a trace of guilt on his face. Didn't he only come to see him when he needed him?

"Don't bother me with this kind of thing anymore. I don't want to study these things related to confinement anymore. Okay, I'm tired. You guys can go back to where you came from." Zodis put on an expression that he would never do it, which made Ma Yingjie hold his breath.

"If you don't want to do it, then don't do it. What are you so proud of? I despise you the most because you are a guy who has no strength and can only brag." Since the other party gave him the cold shoulder, there was no need for Ma Yingjie to put his warm face on his cold butt. The phantom on the side was stunned when he saw Ma Yingjie showing off his power. He had never thought that he could talk to NPCs like this. In his mind, these NPCs produced by the system should be treated like masters and he could not say any disrespectful words.

"Haha, young man, you really have the same temper as me when I was young. It reminds me of the past, the past..." The old man frowned, looked at Ma Yingjie who turned around and left domineeringly, laughed heartily, and began to mutter to himself.

"You look like a ghost, your whole family looks like you, you..." Ma Yingjie had just uttered half of the curse word when he suddenly felt something was wrong, and the rest of the curse was stuck in his throat.

"Hehe, if you talk to me like this again I'll change my mind." Zodis raised Ranshuang's eyebrows and said mischievously, looking like a naughty old boy.

"Really, really agreed?" Lu Hao was stunned and stammered out these words. Could it be that all the NPCs in Blood Cry are the type who deserve to be scolded for no reason? This is too ridiculous.

"Don't you believe anything I, Zodis, say?" The old man frowned, a big "川" (river) bulged on his forehead, and he looked displeased.

"Of course not, of course not." Ma Yingjie said as he took out the Praise of Light and put it in Zodis's dry hands. He couldn't make him unhappy now. Although Ma Yingjie really didn't know who Zodis was, he must be no ordinary person if he could live to the age of a turtle.

"Hehe, it's a pretty good secondary equipment. What's your profession?" Zodis took the Praise of Light from Ma Yingjie's hand, his eyes lit up, and his skinny palm gently stroked the Praise of Light, and he couldn't help but feel moved.

"Necromancer." Ma Yingjie's frustration was evident in his words.

"Haha, boy, you are so cute. You are the first one who can make me laugh so happily in all these years." Hearing Ma Yingjie's words, Zodis was so happy that he couldn't straighten his waist. He accidentally lost control of his hand and Guangming Shengzan fell under the table.

With a crisp "crack", the secondary equipment, which Ma Yingjie estimated to be worth at least 1000 gold coins, broke into two pieces.

"..." Lu Hao looked at Zodis speechlessly, feeling very depressed. Was today his unlucky day? Not only did he fail to untie the binding, but he also wasted the transmission fee. If he had known the result would be like this, he might as well have thrown this bullshit praise into the toilet.

"Hehe, young man, don't worry. This is purely an accident. The insurance company will compensate you." Looking at Ma Yili's dark face, Zodis laughed embarrassedly. He fumbled in his clothes for a long time and found a bead the size of an eyeball. The bead emitted a strange light, which made people feel as if it could see through the essence of a person. Of course, this was a bit exaggerated.

"This is called the Eye of Insight. It can detect stealth players within fifty meters around you. I'll give it to you as compensation." Zodis was reluctant to take a look at the Eye of Insight and threw it to Ma Yingjie.

Ma Yingjie hurriedly took it over. Looking at the sultry appearance of the Eye of Insight, Ma Yingjie was a little skeptical. However, there were no stealth players nearby for Ma Yingjie to test, so he didn't know whether it was real or not. It was better to have it than not to have it. At the very least, he could attract some attention in the fake market.

[Eye of Insight] (Green Equipment - True Vision) can see through potential dangers nearby. It is the right eyeball of the thief saint Dragolarus many years ago. After the thief saint was killed, the cruel enemy dug out his eyes and made two items that can see through invisibility, the Eye of Insight and the Left Eye of the Abandoned Disciple.

It can detect stealthed players within 50 meters. It is ineffective if it is outside this range or if the level is more than 5 levels higher than the user.

Occupation in demand: None

Requirement Level: 1

Ma Yingjie looked at the Eye of Insight in front of him and had the urge to rush up and give Zodis a kiss, but seeing that the old man's face looked like he hadn't washed it for at least a month, Ma Yingjie forced himself to hold back his urge.

"Master Zodis, can you please replace this for me?" The phantom on the side swallowed and looked at Ma Yingjie enviously, then took out his reward and asked Zodis.

"What are you doing? Do you think I'm a fat sheep? But if you want to give it to me, I don't mind." Zodis glared at Phantom, and scared him so much that he immediately put his item into the storage space.
