No one knows when the Shining Tavern began to appear in the major cities of the kingdom. Not only in the Emerald Kingdom, some travelers have even found traces of the Shining Tavern in the other six kingdoms.
This is an organization spread across the entire continent, integrating multiple functions such as underground transactions and bounty commissions.
Of course, to ordinary people who were turned away by the sky-high price of 1 gold coin for drinks, this was a place where the stinking rich and the royal aristocrats came to have fun, and everywhere there were beautiful girls in revealing clothes with waists twisting like water snakes, many of whom were from foreign countries and had a unique charm.
Inside and outside the pub are two different worlds.
Levi has a great knight father, so he naturally knew the Shining Tavern.
If possible, he didn't want to get into it.
But now the Jade Chamber of Commerce is out of stock, so I can only try here.
"Give me a glass of Lion King's liquor."
Levi took out a gold coin with heartache and handed it to the burly man with the strength of a knight.
The fact that the Shining Tavern can employ a knight-level warrior to guard the door shows that it is extraordinary.
This is a magical organization that seems to be beyond the nobility, royal power, and even the church's theocracy.
One gold coin can buy a cow, a good knight's sword, and allow the high priest of the Holy Light Church in Icewind City to perform a Holy Light prayer for you.
But here, it's only worth a drink.
Of course, this is also the ticket.
The burly man handed over a glass of wine that shone with a light golden glow.
"Drink it and you can go in."
This is the Lion King's Liquor, used to commemorate the powerful and legendary knight, the Lionheart Knight.
There are only seven kinds of wine in the entire Shining Tavern, which rotate every seven days. As the entrance ticket to the tavern, the price is 1 gold coin. They are:
Lion King Liquor, Blood Wine, Flowers Wine, Snow Beer, Black Rum, Golden Liquor, Unknown Liquor.
There is no other wine besides this.
These seven kinds of wine are said to be in memory of seven deceased legendary knights.
Lionheart Knight Rhine, Blood Knight Brad, Flower Knight Elena, Snowflake Knight Forair, Black Knight Blake, Gold Knight Greg, and the Thousand-Faced Knight Nameless, whose real name no one knows.
Therefore, many people speculate that the big boss behind the Shining Tavern must be the legendary knight, which is why he can open taverns all over the Seven Kingdoms and even set up black markets under the noses of the nobles and royal families in major cities.
Levi was not worried that the wine was poisoned. After all, the reputation of the Shining Tavern was very famous in the underground world.
After drinking, I walked into the pub and was hit by the hustle and bustle.
The air was filled with the scent of hormones, mixed with a strong smell of alcohol.
At the bar, a beautiful proprietress dressed in glamorous clothes was drinking Baihua wine.
There were many people in the tavern wearing masks like Levi, but there were also many who were skilled and brave enough to show their true faces.
The rude men played finger-guessing games while drinking and flirted with the waitresses in the tavern. Then they were severely scolded by the proprietress, but they did not dare to talk back.
As we all know, no one who dares to attack the staff of the Shining Tavern will have a good ending.
Levi walked through the noisy crowd and came to a dome room with a unique world behind the tavern.
This is where the tavern's trading market is located. In front of the simple stalls, people are selling their goods. There is also a large wooden sign with various commissions written on it in chalk.
These commissions are personal commissions, and Shining Tavern is only responsible for the platform.
There is all kinds of content, so it has also spawned a profession that specializes in accepting commissions in exchange for bounties: bounty hunter.
Many wandering knights became bounty hunters.
Levi walked around the market, and finally, with a look of joy on his face, he stopped in front of a man wearing armor that covered his entire body.
On this man's stall, there was a small black bottle. Even with the lid on, the content inside exuded a strange and charming fragrance. Levi had smelled this fragrance many times when he was a child when his father was preparing secret medicine.
Ambergris.
"200 gold coins per bottle, no bargaining." The man in armor was obviously an official knight. Levi could feel the powerful aura from the other party. Although he was not as dazzling as Knight Fred, he was still as dazzling as a flame in front of him.
"Ambergris has always been priced at 100 gold coins per bottle, and the price has been stable. How can you sell it for 200?" Levi couldn't help but say.
The knight sneered, "You still want to buy ambergris for 100 gold coins? Don't overthink it. You can go to the Emerald Chamber of Commerce and see if you can buy it. In order to become a legendary knight, the white horse knight of the royal family has almost monopolized all the ambergris in the Emerald Chamber of Commerce in the entire kingdom. There is basically no ambergris on the market. Do you want to buy it? If not, don't block my business."
It was obvious that this knight had a bad temper. Levi thought to himself that it was no wonder that the Jade Chamber of Commerce was out of stock, it turned out that all of them were bought by the White Horse Knight.
Naturally, Levi, the Knight on the White Horse, knew that he was known as the strongest genius of the Emerald Royal Family in a thousand years and the number one person under the Legendary Knight.
Levi had no choice. He didn't want to wait for the price of ambergris to drop, as he didn't know when that would happen.
"How many bottles of ambergris do you have here?" Levi asked.
"How much do you need?" The knight looked at Levi.
"Two bottles." Levi now has 500 gold coins on him, which he originally wanted to buy ambergris. Even if it is expensive, he has to buy it.
The secret black snake medicine made from two bottles of ambergris should be enough for me to break through to become a formal knight.
"Okay, I didn't expect that although you are not that strong, you are quite rich. You should be a noble son of some northern country." The knight said to himself.
But Levi didn't say anything, so the knight didn't bother himself.
Levi took two bottles of ambergris from the knight. After checking the goods and finding no problems, Levi threw down four hundred gold coins, which was equivalent to more than five years of financial revenue of his territory. His heart was bleeding.
"That's a good deal for you. If I wasn't in urgent need of money, I could earn at least an extra 100 gold coins by putting these two bottles of ambergris at the [Shining Auction] the day after tomorrow. If you need ambergris in the future, you can find me at the Shining Tavern." After the knight said this, he hurriedly took the gold coins and left.
Obviously, this guy has control over the channels for obtaining ambergris.
After buying the ambergris, Levi achieved the most important purpose of this trip. He still had more than 100 gold coins left. He planned to buy a blood breathing method and go home to try whether the proficiency panel could break the bloodline restriction and allow himself to practice the breathing method of other families.
After walking around, Levi didn't see anyone selling breathing techniques. He could only wait for the [Shining Auction] the day after tomorrow. This is a small auction held at the Shining Tavern on the last day of every month, where some precious items would be auctioned.
There must be a breathing method. When Levi was a child, he and his father attended the Shining Auction in Flower City. At that auction, an extremely rare and excellent quality non-bloodline breathing method was sold at a sky-high price of 5,000 gold coins!
