687 Chapter 716: Magical Trading Rules
Before the voice from behind appeared, Goudan Li had actually noticed that the other party was approaching her. The reason why he didn’t move was to see what the other party was trying to do, but he didn’t expect that the other party was also very vigilant. He was warning her from a distance of over a hundred meters…
Goudan Li slowly turned his head and looked at the person with the faint light of the crystal in the square. It was a very tall person, at least three meters tall, and his skeleton and body size were almost close to that of a strong orc. His brown beard and tattered clothes looked very sloppy… …
“Uncle, who are you?”Li Goudan asked in the common language of the alliance in this world.
The person was slightly stunned. He looked at Li Goudan, who was as beautiful as a pearl, and suddenly understood. He shook his head and asked in a low voice, “Who are you?”
“Oh, I am. I am the search and rescue team sent by the Tanzanian Riz Kingdom. I am the captain of the Black Pearl, Elizabeth. May I know who you are, uncle?”Li Goudan displayed his ability to lie through his teeth.
“Captain?”The man narrowed his eyes and looked solemnly at doggerel Li, thinking to himself, female captain? And so young? Elizabeth? Did the Tanzanian Riz have this surname. It sounded very noble… …
“Where’s Your Crew?”The burly man asked coldly.
“Lost…”doggerel Li shrugged. “I’m also looking for them. Uncle, how long have you been here? Shouldn’t you tell me your background?”
The burly man looked at her and fell silent. He had been here for a long time, and he knew very well that people who were alone were not trustworthy. However, if the newcomer had something that could prove his identity…
However, if the newcomer was really a newcomer, he could not use this method to test him, because many people only had one chance, and they had to use it on the most valuable person!
“My name is Hans, I’m the captain of the Shenwei from Calista Kingdom. I’ve been here for a year!”
“Really?”Li Goudan was excited. “Then where is this place, uncle? Can you introduce it? Also, have you seen my crew?”
“I don’t know where this is either…”the burly man named Hans shook his head. “But from the buildings here, it looks like the Crystal City in historical stories: Mithilina…”
“Oh… I’ve never heard of it…”Goudan Li shook his head honestly.
Hans:”…”
Was this guy really a Captain?
“I didn’t see your crew… ahem… I just said, you’d better not touch those people!”Hans frowned when he saw that Goudan Li was about to touch those statue-like people again.
“Why?”Goudan Li asked curiously.
“Because it’s very precious!”Hans looked at him. “If you use your precious opportunity to exchange for some useless people, it’s not worth it!”
“I don’t understand what you’re saying at all…”Li Goudan frowned.
Hans sighed when he heard that. He was not a person who was good at communication. On the previous ship, he was responsible for military force, and the one responsible for negotiating and managing people was actually the first mate…
After thinking for a while, he organized his words and said in a low voice, “These people, if you touch them, they will come back to life…”
“Really?”Li Goudan was suddenly energized, and he slapped the face of a man next to him!
Hans:”…”
Then, an unbelievable scene happened.
The Man, who was originally like a statue, was touched by Li Goudan, and his expression suddenly became lively. Then, he looked around in fear, as if he really came back to life!
“Wow, really!”Li Goudan excitedly grabbed the man who was trying to run away. “Uncle, what are these people? Why do they move when you touch them?”
Hans couldn’t help but cover his head, but then he stared at Li Goudan closely, as if he was observing something… …
“Uncle, did I touch all these people and they will come back to life?”Li Goudan said excitedly, but her face suddenly stiffened as soon as she finished speaking.
She realized that half of her left Pinky had turned into a pink crystal!
This time, Li Goudan was shocked. He looked around in horror, then at his own finger. Then he looked at the other person. “Uncle, what’s going on?”
“You traded a person for only one Pinky?”Hans looked at him in disbelief. “Who are you?”
“Uncle… Shouldn’t you answer my question?”Li Goudan’s expression was a little unfriendly. “Were you… deliberately trying to trick me into touching them?”
“I didn’t!”Hans took a few steps back warily. He seemed to be very wary of Li Goudan, he quickly explained, “I told you not to touch them just now because I was at a disadvantage!”As he spoke, he unbuttoned his clothes and saw that under his clothes, more than half of his body had turned into crystals. And through that crystal, you can actually see each other’s internal organs, and a lot of internal organs have become crystals…
“What is this situation?”Li Goudan Slightly Leng.
“That’s why I told you not to touch it…”Hans sighed and put on his clothes.

“You mean, your people are still alive?”On the other side, on the huge ship of the dead, Bengal Goode looked around at the statue-like people and said with some amazement.
“They are still alive…”Marina looked at the statue-like people around her and sighed, “But if we want them to come back to life, we need to exchange…”
“How do we exchange?”Bengali Goude asked curiously.
“Equivalent exchange…”marina said faintly, “Exchange with something that is equivalent to that person’s value.”
“What do you mean?”
“How should I put it…”marina frowned slightly, then, she pointed at a middle-aged man beside a crystal and said, “Take him for example. He is a noble and very rich. The wealth he has can be exchanged for a city. Until now, he has stored a lot of precious materials in many big banks. If you want to save him, you have to use the same materials to exchange, such as gold that corresponds to the amount of his assets, a magic item that is equivalent to those assets, or another excellent living person…”. “…”
“Another living person?”Bengal Goode was a little confused, and he could not understand it anymore.
“It’s a living person with the same value as him. It can be a politician, a rich businessman, a knight with decent strength…”. Marina smiled and said, “This place will have its own calculation method to exchange with you for the same value. I just said that that guy can actually be exchanged for a silver.”
“Silver Knight… Equal to a noble?”Bengal Goode asked curiously, “How is this equivalent calculated? “According to what you said, that person just now has a lot of wealth in a city. His value shouldn’t be just a silver knight, right?”
“Sorry…”marina said faintly, “The trading rules here are not set by you. It’s not what you think is equal to what it is, but what it thinks is equal to what it is…”
Bengal Goode:”…”
Marina looked at the sculptures around her and continued, “If a gold knight came to trade and woke him up, he would have to pay the price of a hand or an organ. Because here, a silver knight is almost equal to the value of a Gold Knight’s hand…”. “…”
“There’s… There’s such a thing…”Bengal Goode’s expression became more and more strange…
Just as he was feeling strange, he suddenly saw something very strange. The buildings in the surrounding cities were originally quite dim, looking like something from a painting. However, suddenly.., a building became lively in front of him, and its color became brighter.
“This is?”Bengal Goode pointed at the building and asked curiously. He could clearly see that it was a bakery. What was strange was that as the bakery regained its color, the fragrance of bread and wheat really came out from it…
“Oh?”Marina looked at the bakery and smiled. “Someone has made a deal. He is quite lucky to have picked a useful one with a small price!”
Bengal Goode:”…”
