Chapter 37 Devil Bath
The mage is a group of rational, calm and practical creatures, which are in some way opposite to most emotional, short-sighted, stupid generals. The evil about the mage does not come entirely from the slander of the church.
The wizard pursues the truth and is slow to respond to the beauty, happiness, moral and ethics that most people yearn for, and is often "bright" in their actions. They use any means to achieve their goals. In the eyes of ordinary people, they are synonymous with mystery, power and evil.
The ultimate belonging of most mages is indeed to the origin of magic, the abyss, so such accusation cannot be rejected, nor does it mean to whitewash themselves.
The Little Demon Abyss is the base camp of the mages.
Regarding the Little Demon Abyss, that is a taboo among the taboos. It only exists in the church's taboo directory, and ordinary people cannot hear it at all. If anyone knows, unless he is a member of the church, there is a high probability that there will be a problem.
What is the Little Demon Abyss? It is not known where it is, including Bei Gaoyang.
Over the past millions of years, the gods and the church have tried countless times to scatter this place of filth and defilement, but they have failed. Even the power of the gods cannot determine its location.
Some people say that the Little Demon Abyss is located in the abyss, so the gods cannot reach it.
Bei Gaoyang scoffed at this speculation because he had been to the Little Demon Abyss many times, which was not an abyss at all, otherwise he would not have lived well.
I don’t know where the little demon abyss is, but I can go there, and it’s extremely fast, relying entirely on a nearly open secret.
This secret is a special magic array configuration.
To give a brief metaphor, this magic array configuration is like a "client" that can dial up the Internet. When needed, it will distribute a "broadcast" to the outside world, looking for a "server" with no fixed place to live, and often change the IP address. If the "server" accepts this broadcast, it will conduct a strict audit of the client's identity and permissions. Only when the audit is passed will the connection be established.
Once the connection is established, it can be transmitted.
Bei Gaoyang walked out of the teleportation array and saw a dilapidated and dark town.
The sky and surrounding borders of the town are filled with thick fog. There is only a simple cross street in the town, with various shops standing on both sides of the street. Most of these shops do not have written signs, but a "neon dynamic graphics" similar to the modern earth.
The store selling medicine is a glowing beaker. The solution in the beaker is gurgling with bubbles of various colors. The bubbles burst and steam to create real smoke. The smoke has a special smell. When you smell this smell, customers will know what kind of medicine is sold in the store and whether they need it.
Those who buy materials, sell ore, sell magical products, sell slaves, sell souls... everything is there.
Not all humanoid creatures walking on the streets are like skeletons, ghosts, monsters, various mixed-race sub-people races, and demons from the abyss...
Most humanoid creatures wear thick cloaks, hiding their faces in the shadow of the hood, and exposing themselves completely to various malicious intentions and temptations.
A shop that Bei Gaoyang often visits, the owner is a Gobit Flame Demon from the Abyss, who is famous for his large number of souls, slaves, and rich magical biological specimens.
Bei Gaoyang once bought an eye demon here for research on biological magic.
He floated into the shop like a shadow. The little demon entertainer on the counter was dozing lazily. When he saw the guest coming to the door, he raised his eyelids and tickled him, and said in a sinister demonic word: "It's you."
"It's me, is Bane here?"
"The boss went back to purchase goods, and the business has been good recently," said the little devil.
Bei Gaoyang approached the counter and looked at the compressed squares behind the counter.
Each square represents a kind of goods sold. The souls of powerful professions are wailing silently in the small square, the beautiful snake demons are posing in the square, the dazzling abyss fire is burning in the square, and the maggot-like abyss worms are snaking in the square...
But most of the squares were empty, which disappointed Bei Gaoyang because he did not find the blood core he was desperately needed.
"There are a large number of blood cores above the vampire baron." Bei Gaoyang told the little devil his needs.
"Uh... some kind of large-scale experiment is right? Are you trying to build an army of White Walkers? I heard that you are not in a good situation lately..."
“This is not something you need to care about.”
"Okay, the exchange rate of platinum coins has not been stable recently, so we only accept Soul Crystal orders."
There are neither soul crystal nor platinum coin Bei Gaoyang now.
Damn, he lived a wanted life, almost all the enemy of the world, and he did not dare to meet other mages, and gave up some channels and business of making money.
In addition, he squandered himself once back to Earth, and he was now so poor that he was now jingling.
"Use this kind of goods to pay the bill."
Bei Gaoyang took out a space ring containing earth supplies and placed it gently on the counter.
The little demon picked up the ring indifferently and took out a solar-powered LED desk lamp from it.
"This is the switch, here is the adjustment of brightness, and there is no need for magic, the abyss can operate." Bei Gaoyang explained while teaching him how to operate.
The little demon's eyes are getting brighter and brighter. In the abyss, there are too few things that can provide light without magic. You should know that many things raised by demon farmers need light. Pure light in the abyss is like demonic energy in Canaan, and it must be available in specific conditions and special occasions.
“How long can the light last?”
"Uh..." Bei Gaoyang converted the time in his mind. When one hour was about 0.4 Pooles, the table lamps also had batteries installed, "at least 10 Pooles," he said.
"That's how it is!", the little devil pondered and smiled, "It seems that the Book of Canaan has helped you very much."
Bei Gaoyang felt an electric current flowing straight from the tailbone of his spine to his mind. In an instant, the magic power in his body was mobilized, his eyes as sharp as a blade, "You are Bane!"
The little devil laughed loudly, and the laughter gradually became thicker and rumbling: "Old guy, I know I can't hide it for too long."
"How did you know?"
"Don't underestimate me, don't underestimate any higher demon. After all, who knows how many clients he has walking in the sun?"
Damn it!
I know I can't hide it for too long.
Fortunately, it was a demon, not other mages.
“How many people know?”
"No more than 5, don't worry, they are all old guys, and they can't afford to pay too high so far."
"That is, my secret can remain for a while?"
"Yes, at least you won't be disturbed in this deal."
"Why is it free to tell me this?"
Bane, who is the little demon, blinked, "Because you have mastered the Book of Canaan, and because you are younger."
"Okay, you bid!" Bei Gaoyang was silent for a while before saying.
"How about we sign a long-term supply agreement? It's okay to pay the bill with such...uh, interesting little things."
Bei Gaoyang didn't talk nonsense and took a dense list, "I'll want the things on it soon."
