So Chen Ping decided to pass the time by chatting on the chat channel, and sometimes he would laugh involuntarily when he saw something funny.
Chen Ping's occasional laughter would scare the little heads that had just ventured into the swimming pool back into the water.
Time passes in this dark night.
Chen Ping, who was chatting in the chat channel, suddenly received a system prompt.
[System: We are about to enter the Black Isle area. Please note that newbie protection will be disabled within the Black Isle area!]
The system's prompt instantly pulled Chen Ping out of the sea of joyful second-level chat.
Chen Ping glanced at the system prompts with a frown, then muttered, "Could that black market be on this Black Island? A lawless place?"
Chen Ping secured the raft with the anchor. He didn't want his little raft to enter the so-called Black Island area. Without the protection of a novice, anyone could get on.
After parking the raft, Chen Ping looked at the dark sea ahead. The black market should be just ahead, right?
"Well, since it's called Black Island, it must be an island, right? Then the effect of the Heart of the Island should be usable, right?"
After observing the effects of the Heart of the Island, Chen Ping murmured to himself.
【Name: Heart of the Island】
Category: Props
[Effect: Island overtime, island sinking time increased by 1~3 times]
[Effect: Island Teleport, can be teleported from the island to the raft {bound to the raft}]
After taking another look at the effects of the Heart of the Island, Chen Ping put away the luminous pearl, then jumped off the raft and headed straight for Black Island.
The system kept prompting me.
Finally, after Chen Ping had walked for more than ten minutes, the system prompted that he had entered the Black Island area.
As soon as he entered the Black Island, Chen Ping didn't need to look for it deliberately. The brightly lit island in front of him was so dazzling in the dark night.
The moment Chen Ping saw the black island, he instantly understood why creatures like crabs are attracted to light; aren't humans the same?
Otherwise, why would so many people chat in the chat channel so late at night? Isn't it because they use dim light in the chat channel, and only they can see it, so they are not afraid of being noticed by anything.
......
After walking for about half an hour, Chen Ping noticed that more and more people appeared. Some were walking on the sea like him, some were swimming in the sea, and some were flying in the sky. He was puzzled as to why they were flying so low.
Furthermore, Chen Ping noticed that a thin layer of black mist was floating around everyone. If this place hadn't been illuminated so brightly by the lights on the Black Island, he probably wouldn't have been able to spot the others around him.
Watching the people swimming by, Chen Ping suddenly became curious. He wondered how many creatures were swimming in the sea. Well, although he was curious, he didn't want to dive in to see.
Soon, Chen Ping saw the dock, where many boats were moored.
Huh? No, when did these ships arrive? Why didn't I see...
(⊙o⊙)…
In the darkness, a huge, ugly pirate ship suddenly appeared and slowly sailed toward the dock.
Chen Ping rubbed his face. "Fine, I guess I'm just too ignorant. I'll just go to the island with the others."
Chen Ping, following the crowd, soon followed a group of black fog people to the legendary Black Island, and then began to queue...
queue???
Standing at the back of the line, Chen Ping looked on with a questioning expression. "The rules of this black market are really numerous. This is even more troublesome than the regular market!"
Fortunately, the queue moved quite quickly, and I was soon turned to Chen Ping's place.
As soon as Chen Ping walked over, he heard the black market people across the street asking him questions.
"Token, please."
Chen Ping quickly showed him the black market ID card in his backpack.
The other person didn't take it, but looked at it for a moment and then said, "It's ready, please come in!"
Put away your black market ID card, and you've successfully entered the black market!
Fortunately, the black market was on an island, and Chen Ping immediately noticed that his attributes had doubled, so the Heart of the Island should also be usable.
After passing through a door, Chen Ping saw many stalls, each shrouded in black mist, and no one knew whether the person on the other side was a human or a ghost.
Looking at so many stalls, Chen Ping started to browse around, trying to see what was being sold in the black market.
Soon Chen Ping was surprised to find that none of the goods sold by those stall owners were of quality lower than gold. Basically, they were all of gold quality, as well as red and orange quality.
Chen Ping looked at the item on the stall in front of him. It was an orange-quality weapon, but unfortunately, the attributes weren't displayed. It seemed like the black market could sell it even without showing the attributes.
Even if Chen Ping could afford to buy something he didn't know anything about, he wouldn't buy it. Who knew if it was good?
As he was walking around, Chen Ping suddenly discovered that energy stones seemed to be very popular on the black market. He had already seen no less than a dozen stalls selling energy stones.
An ordinary energy stone costs 100 gold coins each, while those attribute ability stones are even more expensive, ranging from 200 gold coins to 1,000 gold coins.
(⊙o⊙)…
So it seems like my 420w is quite a lot, hehe, I really have to thank Death Arena.
Well, after browsing around for a while, Chen Ping realized that he hadn't bought anything. The main reason was that most items here, especially equipment and props, whose quality could only be determined by looking at their attributes, were basically not shown to him.
Who was the idiot who came up with these ridiculous rules?
Finally, having no other choice, Chen Ping decided to participate in the black market auction. In fact, this is the purpose of most people coming to the black market, since black goods can be auctioned openly here, and the prices are not bad.
But it hasn't started yet, so Chen Ping can only wander around bored.
I've been walking and looking around, but I haven't learned anything. This is too secretive, can't I just use my brain?
Huh?
Chen Ping suddenly spotted something familiar, and slowly squatted down, looking at the items displayed on the stall. There weren't many, only five items.
Chen Ping: "How much is this?"
The seller took a look and said calmly, "1,000 gold coins."
(⊙o⊙)…
Chen Ping smirked and then complained, "1000? You might as well rob someone; 300 would be more like it."
Seller: "Sold, 300"
Chen Ping: “…”
Chen Ping from mmb took out 300 gold coins and handed them over. Then he pointed to the one he recognized. Before he could even ask any questions, the seller spoke up.
Seller: "This one is 2000 gold coins."
Chen Ping remained silent again, then said calmly, "200."
Seller: "This one won't work, it's at least 1,000."
Chen Ping: "250."
Seller: "How about I take a loss and make it 800?"
Although separated by the black fog, Chen Ping still said expressionlessly: "300."
Seller: "...600, fixed price, want it or not?"
Chen Ping stretched out his hand, made a V sign, and said calmly, "150!"
