In fact, Gray Lint has another choice for the gathering of extraordinary people.
That was the party organized by Mr. "Eye of Wisdom" that was mentioned many times in the original book.
Because of the discussion among book friends at that time on how to knock on the door to find out the importance and length of the call, Gray Lint wrote down how to participate in that party.
However, the gathering was relatively small and low-level, and most of them were acquaintances who had participated many times. The sudden appearance of an unknown person would inevitably cause a lot of fear and speculation.
Therefore, Gray Lint's original plan was to wait until Sequence 8, and then try to participate when he had considerable self-protection ability.
Regarding the party that Joffrey brought him here to participate in and was hosted by the "priest", Gray Lint believed that the other party was most likely the "Priest of Light" in the fifth sequence of "Singers".
Of course, we do not rule out the possibility that this is intentional misleading by the other party.
——————————————————————
After putting on the mask and hood, and wrapping the black robe around his body, the only things Glaint exposed were his hands and eyes.
At the same time, he even took off the ring of law and put it into his pocket, because the ring was quite delicate and easy to identify.
It was still a few minutes before nine o'clock when Gray Lint entered, but basically everyone at the party had already arrived. Except for those who didn't come, plus Gray Lint, there were nine people in total.
When the time came, the "priest" asked his servants to close all the entrances and exits, three in total.
"Are there any new friends? If so, please tell me your code name."
The "priest's" voice is not too loud, but it is very clear and full of energy.
Gray Lint coughed and deliberately lowered his voice: "I am, my code name is 'Assassin'."
What he said attracted everyone's attention. Maybe this party is usually relatively stable, and there may be very few new people joining.
"Welcome, Mr. Assassin. Well, assuming you are indeed a gentleman."
At this time, a tall man joked.
"What he said is a little strange? On the surface, it seems that he doesn't know my gender, and he said it deliberately to show his inquiry."
"But why do I feel that there is something in his words? Doesn't he know that assassins can change gender? He seems to be subconsciously provoking me. Is it the 'Hunter' sequence?"
The person opposite probably didn't expect that Gray Linte could think of so many things at once.
He felt bored when he received no response, shrugged his shoulders and stopped talking.
"Okay, then let me tell you the process of the party."
The "priest" took over and spoke calmly.
"Wait a moment and we will take turns to speak, starting with me, in the order in which you join the party. You can put forward your own needs, including but not limited to acquiring items and issuing commissions. Since there are new friends participating today, the speaker can also report by the way.
Give me your code name."
"After the transaction is completed, it is a free communication session. You can freely exchange mystical knowledge or other things."
"Okay, if there are no problems, let's get started!"
He looked around and waited for a while. When he saw that no one spoke, he began to speak:
"My code name is 'Priest', and I wish to purchase a piece of sacred radiance stone. The reward is any mid- to low-sequence extraordinary characteristic or potion formula plus one main ingredient."
"If it's something I don't have, I will try my best to get it within a month."
"Even for corresponding clues, I can pay one-third of the reward."
He spoke as a matter of routine, without much expectation.
Because he has mentioned it many times at this party, everyone is very familiar with it except Mr. "Assassin" who obviously looks like a mid- to low-sequence one.
Sure enough, the result was no different from what he expected.
"If not, then go to the next one!"
"I am a 'Gladiator', I have nothing to buy. Instead, I want to sell a magical item, its name is 'Friend'. The shape is a pair of black-rimmed glasses. Put it on and you can directly
Communicate with real-world natural spirits and wandering souls of the dead. The negative side effect is that after long-term use, you will develop a 'special' fondness for corpses, which may affect your behavior."
"I wish to exchange it directly for two thousand gold pounds, and I will not accept counter-offers."
Gladiator? Which sequence is that, sounds a bit like "Warrior"?
Gray Lint guessed that the "friend" was a psychic from the "Corpse Collector" sequence seven. He was somewhat interested in it, but because it was not necessary and the price was not friendly, he ultimately did not take action.
Moreover, "Friends" can only communicate with real spirits and dead souls, but cannot communicate with the spirit world, which greatly limits its use environment.
There was silence in the venue until the transaction failed and the next person continued...
Joffrey was the sixth one. He glanced at Graylint first and said in a rougher voice than he really was:
"My title is 'Professor', and I want to buy the magic potion formula corresponding to the sequence number five of 'The Secret Peeper'. Well, it is best to pay with the gold list. In addition, I also want to buy a wild flower grass."
"Crazy grass? I can find it for you, 400 pounds. If you accept it, I will bring it to you next time we get together."
The fourth "detective" spoke to solicit the business, and Joffrey accepted.
Perhaps because the overall sequence is high, the items everyone wants to buy are quite difficult to obtain, and the items for sale are also relatively expensive. No one spends too much to buy unless necessary.
Therefore, this is only the third "successful" transaction today. Although the two parties have not completed the transaction, they have only reached an intention to trade.
Among the eight people in front of him, Gray Lint roughly judged that the first one was the "Priest of Light". This was based on two points of judgment. The first was the other party's code name, and the second was that the item he wanted to buy sounded like that kind of light and light.
Justice-oriented.
The second person may be in the middle rank of "Warrior", but the third one is not clear. The other person just wanted to buy a magical item that can change his appearance. The specific sequence cannot be analyzed. His code name is "Dawn".
The fourth one is most likely to be in the "Reader" sequence, and the fifth one is definitely the "General Knowledge" sequence six, a "mechanical expert" known as "craftsman" in ancient times, because he undertakes the production commissions of various magical items.
At the same time, he is selling some extraordinary weapons, and his title is "Artisan".
Then there is the sixth Joffrey. Gray Lint has confirmed that he is the "Scroll Professor" of the "Secret Peeper" sequence six.
The seventh one is the Sequence Seven or Sequence Eight who is suspected of being a "Hunter". His code name is "Revolver". He is not looking to buy the potion formula, but the main ingredient of the potion "The Brain of a Human Lion".
Lelint didn't understand this.
The eighth one is a woman, codenamed "Doctor". She is clearly the "Physician" of the "Tiller" sequence eight, because she directly asked for the potion formula corresponding to the "Tiller" sequence seven.
Here, both "craftsman" and "doctor" are relatively calm and do not shy away from others knowing their order.
This is probably due to two reasons. One is that they provide certain technical services themselves and have to be exposed. On the other hand, generally no one will make things difficult for these professional and technical personnel. It is difficult for you to guarantee that you will not have corresponding services in the future.
need.
Since Graylingt knows most of the sequences quite well, as long as they open their mouths, Graylingt can roughly determine the sequence and level of the other party based on the other party's code name and shopping items.
Of course, the premise is that the other party does not intentionally mislead.
