Chapter 65 Nightmare Lantern
Turn around and stopped in front of a booth, he leaned slightly and carefully looked at the an item.
It was an antique-looking brass lantern.
“Hello…do you like any item?”
The stall owner is a quiet girl with black hair and an ordinary Pamir uniform. Seeing Anves stop in front of her booth, she asked shyly, as if she was not very good at interacting with people.
“Can I take a look at that lamp?”
Anves smiled at the girl and pointed to the lantern on the booth.
“Of course you can, please.”
The girl nodded, stretched out her hand and made a gesture of please.
With the consent of the girl’s stall owner, Anves gently picked up the lantern on the stall and put it in front of him to examine it carefully.
The style of the lantern is very old, and the whole is made of brass-like material.
Two brass support columns extend from the base to the left and right, which are connected with the top of the relief, and the lifting beams of the same material are hung on the support columns.
In the center of the lantern, in the oval-cylindrical transparent lampshade, the slender wick presents a unique dim-blue translucent shape, like clear crystal, which is very mysterious.
Although no magic has been injected yet, the lantern itself exudes an inexplicable aura.
‘A replica of the Nightmare Lantern? But it does have the power of a nightmare. ‘
With the help of the magical vision enhanced by the Quicksilver Eye, Anves saw clearly. In the dim-blue wick, there is a hint of strange gray energy.
Anves has been exposed to many special powers in his heritage courses, and has personally experienced their effects, including the power of nightmares.
So, when he saw it again, he immediately recognized its essence.
“That, it’s the lantern of a good dream.”
Seeing Anves taking a closer look at the lantern, the girl stall owner took the initiative to introduce it.
“Put the magic crystal in the base to light it up. A standard magic crystal is enough to light up for one night. Under the light of the lantern, it can ensure that professionals below the third rank sleep. You won’t have nightmares.”
“Also, its lighting effect is also very good, and it can be used as a normal magic lamp…”
Listening to the girl’s introduction, Anves’ eyes There was a flash of weirdness.
The Nightmare Lantern attacks and defends with the power of nightmares, and usually absorbs the user’s nightmares to nourish itself. Its imitation is called the Good Dream Lantern.
But professionals have nightmares?
Unless hit by some special curse, or affected by some negative effect.
Let’s not talk about how rare those situations are, even if they do happen, the first choice is definitely to ask someone to remove the curse, rather than forcibly suppress it with the lantern effect.
As for lighting with it?
One standard magic crystal per night, which is probably melting gold coin for lighting.
“That…it’s just a low-level alchemy item, so that’s all it has. If you want, I can sell it to you cheaper, how about fifteen gold coins?”
p>
Seems to understand that its effect is a bit tasteless, and the black-haired girl explained somewhat sorry.
Fifteen gold coins?
Anves laughed, didn’t answer, just asked again.
“Is there a higher rank lamp like this?”
“A higher level?”
The girl bowed her head sadly, her voice Some got smaller.
“Sorry, I’m just a First Rank alchemist, I can’t make a higher-level dream lantern…”
“I see—”
nodded as understood by Anves. Then, the conversation suddenly changed.
“So, can you sell me how it’s made?”
When he said this, his eyes looked at the girl’s light purple eyes unintentionally .
“Manufacturing method?”
The girl stall owner was taken aback for a moment, and a flash of vigilance flashed in her eyes.
“Yes, I’m very interested in how it works.”
As if unaware of the vigilance in the girl’s eyes, Anves took out the silver magic crystal card.
“How about a thousand gold coins?”
“…Sorry I can’t sell you the way it’s made, it’s not about the price.”
p>
Seeing the magic crystal card, the girl’s eyes widened slightly, but then returned to its original state. If Anves hadn’t been paying attention to the girl’s expression, this detail would have been overlooked.
‘In other words, she is the right person selected by the Nightmare Lantern, and she is not well-off now. ‘
Analyzing the girl’s words, Anves pondered.
This is normal, Secondary Profession is very expensive in the early stage. The monthly expenses of more than a thousand gold coins, even the average small nobles will find it difficult.
Although the noble family has a great business, most of the income is consumed on the guards, servants, equipment, food and grass, etc. The real liquidity is not much.
“So, all right, how about an exchange of identities? Let me know when you can make a more advanced lantern.”
thoughts are revolving, Anves Forget about buying how it’s made. Instead, he took a step back, and instead hoped to be able to exchange identity marks with the girl.
This is a little trick of retreating, when your first big request is rejected by someone else. The second, lesser, smaller request, others often become willing to accept.
Anves had already anticipated that the girl would not choose the transactional production method, because it might involve her fundamental secrets.
“As for this a thousand gold coin, it’s my deposit.”
Amidst the constant flow of people, the pale boy with short blond hair looked at the girl’s violet pupils , smiled and handed out the magic crystal card in his hand.
The sunlight reflects on the silver-white surface of the card, reflecting the heartwarming pure and holy radiance.
“Swapping identity stamps… okay.”
The black-haired girl showed a somewhat troubled expression, but after looking at the boy’s face, she glanced at a bright light from the corner of the eye. After the silver card, finally agreed to the proposal.
After exchanging identity stamps, Anves raised his hand with a smile, tapped three times on his chest, and gave the girl a mage salute.
“Introduce myself, I’m Anves, it’s an honor to meet you.”
The girl was stunned, and then returned the same courtesy.
“Hello, Anves, I’m Emily.”
The Nightmare Lantern is a very special high-level fantasy Rare Item. There are only a few records in a single copy of the fantasy category in the family’s large library.
If Anves hadn’t read that book, he would have missed it by now.
Its core function can be summed up in one sentence:
In the dream world, find the way back.
This Rare Item was key to Anves. In his future development plan, the dream world tour is a very important part.
Only with a real nightmare lantern can he guarantee his safe return, instead of being lost forever in the deep dreams of vast as the open sea.
And, just like that, it wasn’t enough to make Olivendi’s immediate family take him so seriously.
In fact, the Nightmare Lantern itself is also an imitation made by a ninth rank dream master.
It is a key, a Treasure Map, pointing to a famous one and only epic item:
The shimmer that penetrates the sea of the underworld-【Dead Sea Lantern】.
