Global Lords: Start as a Desert Lord

After leaving the Red Dragon Grocery Store, Richard continued shopping in this bustling area.

Amidst the bustle of people, he felt a little strange in his heart as he watched people of all colors passing by.

I don’t know when the twilight city will have such a scene.

There is a long way to go.

After feeling the lively atmosphere for a moment, Richard turned to look at Rebecca beside him.

Looking at the girl who was still thinking about something, he said slowly.

"Rebecca, had you heard of Pim before you came here?"

A demigod who can survive without a heart is simply a creature of myth and legend.

Moreover, the opponent also possesses a high-level artifact. If such a person had not lost his power, he would probably be a guest of the kings of various empires.

Rebecca shook her head.

"The main plane is too big, and there are countless powerful and mysterious beings like Lord Pim."

"Besides, this is not an ice and snow empire."

Richard was silent.

"Glory Era" is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

The indigenous forces that have existed for who knows how long are far beyond what the current players can compare with.

Thinking of this, he felt inexplicably lucky. Fortunately, Dusk City was located in the desert and was naturally isolated from the outside world.

There is no need to worry too much about running into these terrifying forces when you are weak.

After thinking for a while, he said slowly.

"What do you think of Pym?"

Rebecca's tone was a bit yearning.

"In his heyday, I'm afraid he was astonishingly powerful."

"If I could have the power to kill the ancient red dragon, no one would be able to compete with me for the position of heir to the Frostwolf family."

After speaking, he seemed to have thought of something, and turned to look at Richard with a serious look.

"Your Excellency Richard, go to that temple to retrieve the God's Heart. I'm afraid the danger will be beyond your imagination."

"If you are not absolutely sure, please think again."

"Twilight City has unlimited potential, and you don't need to take risks yourself."

After pausing for a moment, Qiu Shui's eyes took on a subtle light that was difficult for outsiders to understand.

"With the rabbit fur of the Flame Dragon Rabbit, some of my plans can be implemented immediately. By then, I will definitely be able to control more of the family's resources."

"I will take this opportunity to find the contract scroll for you."

Look at the girl's serious eyes.

A warm current arose in Richard's heart.

This noble eldest daughter with extraordinary origins is indeed a good character.

Nod slowly.

"Don't worry, I have already made arrangements for this matter. I won't take risks easily if I'm not absolutely sure."

Seeing him replying to her so solemnly, Rebecca felt inexplicably happy.

No more words were said. Judging from the contact during this period, the other party was not an impulsive person.

After this incident was revealed, Richard seemed to have thought of something and asked.

"Rebecca, where can I buy high-level armor on the black market?"

Purchasing armor for Sheena was the original purpose.

The Dark Valkyrie comes with a set of full-body armor, which has considerable defense and can be repaired automatically, so he doesn't need to prepare anything else.

Rebecca glanced at Xina who was following her with a smile.

"Grand Duke Solan's shop may have the equipment Miss Xina needs."

"Grand Duke Solan?" Richard was a little curious about this title.

"That's right, the ruler of Solan City, a legendary ascetic monk."

Rebecca said this with a bit of respect in her eyes.

exclaimed in an exclamatory tone.

"Grand Duke Solan has already reached level 29 the year before last. He is only one step away from being a demigod."

"It's really admirable that ascetics can become legends."

"Is an ascetic a very rare profession?"

This is the first time that Richard has heard of this profession.

Rebecca was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect that he had never heard of this.

Thinking of his identity as Lord of Divine Grace, he understood clearly and explained immediately.

"No, ascetics are not rare. They are just an advanced profession for warriors. They can be chosen after level 10."

"But few warriors will change their profession to become ascetics, not because it is difficult to change professions, but because after becoming ascetics, it is extremely difficult to upgrade."

"Ascetics cannot wear armor, cannot use weapons, and can only fight with their bodies."

"If you want to upgrade, you first need to increase the strength of your body. Only when you reach sufficient strength can you improve."

"So you can often see ascetics going to various terrifying places to hone themselves and fight monsters with bare hands."

"This kind of suffering is not something ordinary people can bear."

"But such hard work has given every ascetic a physique that can rival a giant dragon of the same level."

"What's even more exaggerated is that the ascetic can even fight four or five heroes of the same level alone."

"Hunting dragons with bare hands is not a legend among them."

"As for the legendary ascetic monks, I can't imagine how terrifying they are. I'm afraid Grand Duke Solan can resist the dragon's breath with his body. Entering the magma naked may not give you any more feelings than taking a hot bath."

"My father once said that ascetics are one of the most powerful beings above the ordinary."

When Richard heard these secrets, he was thoughtful.

Make a note of this career.

If you encounter ascetics in the future, you must be more careful.

Those who are cruel to themselves will not be weak.

At least let him take off his equipment and fight a ferocious beast with his bare hands. He would not go.

"Then let's go to the Grand Duke's chamber of commerce. I wonder if we can see the style of the legendary ascetic monk."

Rebecca pursed her lips and smiled.

"The Solan Chamber of Commerce is the daughter of Grand Duke Solan - Her Highness Chris is in charge. I'm afraid we won't have the chance to see Grand Duke Solan."

While the two were chatting and laughing, Butler Kent, who was leading the way, led them in another direction.

Not long after, the group stopped in front of a shop with an exaggerated area.

Like a stadium that can accommodate tens of thousands of people.

Right in front, on a huge plaque, the four characters of Solan Chamber of Commerce are written in the common language of the mainland.

The outer wall of this building is embossed with dozens of Pegasus statues more than ten meters high. After being blessed with magic, the Pegasus keeps running on the outer wall.

This scene looks quite visually impressive.

At the entrance, two rows of ten-meter-high magic stone statues holding long-handled battle axes guard the left and right.

They are all level 19 top troops.

There were people coming and going around, and it was very lively.

Richard and his group of more than 20 people were inconspicuous here.

Because it was not possible to bring troops into the store, it took some time to arrange the level 15 troops for the two teams.

Butler Kent then led them into the house.

Passing through the magic stone statue and passing through the tall and solid gate, your vision suddenly opens up.

The twenty-meter-high dome is carved with intricate and exquisite patterns, and the surrounding walls are hung with mottled oil paintings.

Before he looked too much, a staff member in his early forties came up to him with a smile.

"Dear guests, Solan Chamber of Commerce welcomes you all. I will serve you throughout the entire process."

"What do you guys plan to buy?"

Richard came to his senses and reached out to signal Xina beside him.

"I need to buy a high-quality set of armor."

"Armor? What level do you need?"

"4 stars upwards."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's smile became even brighter.

"A treasure of this level needs to go to the second floor. Please follow me."

Richard nodded and stepped to follow.

But he had just passed through the crowd and reached the stairs, but he had not yet stepped onto the steps.

There was a quarrel.

Richard subconsciously turned his head to look.

At this time, several players were standing behind the counter with unhappy faces, and an old man with a goatee was yelling something.

In front of them, there was a pile of badly damaged items.

At first glance, you can tell that he has just returned from the wild and is here to sell treasures.

The rusty sword, the broken shield, the broken long bow were filled with the aura of time eroding, as if they had been picked up from some ancient ruins.

The middle-aged man who led the way looked at Richard's curious eyes and smiled awkwardly.

"Sir, there are often some grace lords who come to sell equipment that I don't know where they got. Some are valuable, and some are just junk. So occasionally there will be disputes. You don't need to worry about it. Please follow me."

Richard nodded and stopped paying attention. He withdrew his gaze and walked upstairs.

At this time, the quarrel over there became more intense.

"This is my legendary equipment!! Even if it's seriously damaged, it's not worth so much money, right?"

"That's it, any more points are not worth it! When has Solan Chamber of Commerce ever deceived people??!"

"Impossible, the price your people gave me last time was three times higher than yours! You are lying!"

"Who is it? Why didn't I know this happened!"

The noisy players suddenly noticed the middle-aged man who had become conspicuous halfway up the stairs, and their eyes immediately lit up.

shouted pointing to the stairs.

"We sold it to him last week! Call him here and we'll talk!"

The old man with the goatee at the counter immediately turned to look, and the middle-aged man who was leading the way for Richard suddenly felt extremely embarrassed.

I want to say something, but it's hard to say it.

This wave is just a joke for outsiders. I will suggest to the president later that the acquisition area be moved to the backyard.

At this time, the movement here has attracted the attention of many people.

It’s not easy for a middle-aged man to just leave at this time.

At the moment, he could only confess to Richard with a smiling face, call a staff member not far from the stairs to accompany him, then turned around and walked down the stairs, walking towards the players with ugly faces.

Seeing this, Richard also became somewhat interested.

Not in a hurry to go up, he took Rebecca and others down the stairs again, passed through the crowd, and approached the few people who were still arguing.

"The things I sell are exactly the same as last time. Why is the price not even half as much this time? Can you tell me?"

Among the players selling goods, the leader held a rusty bronze sword in his hand and stared at the two of them angrily.

Seeing Richard following him, the middle-aged man looked even more unhappy when he looked at the players.

"Hmph, I purchased your piece of equipment last time. I originally wanted to take it back to our blacksmith for restoration, but do you know the result in the end?"

"Our top forging master said that if it is broken like this, there is no possibility of repairing it."

"Even if it can be repaired, it's not worth it."

"The resources required to repair it are enough to forge a brand new one."

Players don’t believe it.

"Humph, who knows whether what you said is true or false."

"If you don't believe it, you can go to another store and see if the price is the same."

"."

After listening for a moment, Richard also understood what the players were arguing about.

The last time they came to sell treasures, the price was generous. This time they got the same treasures, but the price given by Solan Chamber of Commerce was not even half of the last time. This was unbalanced.

The same is true for Solan Chamber of Commerce.

Last time, I thought I would make a fortune by repairing it after acquiring it, but I didn't expect that the cost of repairing it even exceeded the cost of the treasure itself, which was totally not worth it.

So this is what happened.

After watching for a moment, Richard became curious about the treasure in the player's hand.

Opened the properties panel and took a look.

Broken bronze sword

Level: None

Condition: Severely damaged

Introduction: Once a legendary weapon, it has lost its power under the erosion of time.

——

Broken black sword

broken longbow

There were more than twenty weapons, each of which was seriously damaged and none of which was usable.

Interestingly, half of them are legendary equipment.

I don’t know where a few players got so many high-end junk.

After learning from the middle-aged man that these weapons were irreparable, the goatee appraiser finally refused to pay even half of the price.

Just shoo a few players away like flies.

Several players were depressed, cursing words that the world could not understand, and greeted the two and their families. Finally, they took out a black cloth bag and reluctantly put away the tattered equipment on the counter.

The arms cannot twist the thighs.

Richard looked on in amusement.

These guys really don't change their nature.

After watching the fun, he didn't stay too long and turned around to leave.

After just two steps, those players received the last few items on the table.

Ding Ling Julang~

A long knife was so rusted that it broke and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Richard turned his head subconsciously.

Seeing the scene of the player picking it up while cursing, I felt a bit dumbfounded.

At first he didn't take it seriously, but at this moment, the leading player took out a dry branch from the bag and swept the last two treasures on the table into the bag as if collecting garbage.

Richard's heart skipped a beat.

His eyes were fixed on the dry branch in the player's hand.

He felt a strange yet familiar atmosphere.

Like an ancient divine tree.

No, it is more evil and darker than the aura of the ancient divine tree.

And more importantly, this dry branch does not seem to be handed down from ancient times like other tatters.

Rather, it's very new.

Strong curiosity arose in my heart. Where did these players get this branch? ?
