Because of his Crystal Ball Communication with his senior brother Zorro via crystal ball, it didn't take long for Saine to reconnect with him after arriving in Public Sea Domain. →

Over the course of more than twenty years, Saine's Mental Strength, Magic Power, and physical constitution have nearly tripled.

The resources they have acquired and the depth of their knowledge are immeasurable.

As for his senior brother Zorro, he is exactly the same as he was twenty years ago.

If we're talking about changes, there have been some.

Zorro's more than twenty years in Public Sea Domain were not spent idly or idly.

Thanks to his excellent alchemy skills, Zorro has taken on many magical item crafting tasks commissioned by Black Magician and Knight in the Black Domain over the years.

The income of a considerable amount of Magic Coin and various magical materials is not a small sum for a Level-1 Magician.

Zorro is considered one of the wealthiest people among the top-tier Black Magician in the Black Domain.

Without Saine's help, Zorro's earnings from the Public Sea Domain over the years would probably have been enough to provide his junior sister Fei'er, with the resources needed to break through to become Formal Magician.

Thanks to the tradition left by their late mentor Moxidu, the three siblings, Saine, Zorro, Fei'er, have a much closer and more harmonious relationship with each other.

Unlike other Black Magician, they don't need to constantly worry about being stabbed in the back by those around them.

Trust and emotion are things that a cold-blooded Black Magician must discard. →

But this thing is also incredibly precious at times.

It's estimated that some Black Magician who still have a kind heart might even feel envious and jealous of the relationship between Zorro, Fei'er, and Saine, the three siblings.

When Saine appeared, Zorro had already completed a commission for custom magical items and was now selling his magical equipment at a medium-sized black market.

Having previously traversed the Western Islands and traveled through half of the Wizard World, the seemingly bustling black market before him no longer held much interest for Saine.

Saine noticed that a very small number of unique resources from the Knight Continent were also being sold in this medium-sized black market.

But without exception, these resources have all been driven up to exorbitant prices.

For example, the corpse of one of the level 1 creatures was actually priced at over 2,000 Magic Coin. Are these people crazy for money?

However, considering the rich Blood Qi Power contained in the corpses, and the fact that many Black Magician within the Black Domain possess considerable skill in Corpse Refinement Synthetic Beast.

This corpse of a level-one creature, brimming with vital Blood Qi, is undoubtedly an excellent raw material for Corpse Refinement Synthetic Beast.

From this perspective, it makes some sense that the price could be driven up to this level.

Zorro didn't get involved in the trade of materials of that caliber; those were rare goods that only Black Magician of level two or above were qualified to deal with.

And asking for 2000 Magic Coin doesn't mean you actually have to come up with 2000 Magic Coin.

Magic Coin circulate only in other parts of the Wizard World and within the Wizard Alliance. In the Black Domain, Magic Coin are not the primary currency.

The main medium of trade in the Black Domain is still Energy Crystal, souls, and rare ores.

Magic Coin serve only as an equivalent, not as a bargaining chip.

Zorro's stall was located closer to the center of the black market, where there was a larger flow of people; he even set up a metal canopy.

The items displayed on the stall were all magical equipment that Zorro had crafted over the years.

More than 70% of them are "trinkets" below level one. There are also Magic Conductor that reach the level of powerhouses above level one, but they seem to be few in number.

The vast majority of Magic Conductor Magic Conductor are custom-made; very few are readily available for sale.

The best-selling magical equipment at Zorro's stall were the ordinary magical equipment whose power level was generally between that of Advanced Apprentice and Quasi-Magician.

Saine even saw several copies of ""Alchemy Detailed Explanation"" on the stall, and other Mage were actually buying them...

When Saine and Lina appeared, Zorro was busy.

Don't assume that the black market is safe; almost none of the Knight and Mage who appear here are good people.

Including those guys from the normal Holy Tower and Knights' Hall, since they dare to venture into Public Sea Domain, they are certainly not the kind of people who can be bullied easily.

Almost every few days, a battle would take place in this medium-sized black market, or a few corpses of Knight and Mage would be thrown out.

Zorro's relatively good position in the black market is probably due to the influence of Martin, a level three Black Magician.

This medium-sized black market might also have been set up by Martin.

With the skills of a level three Black Magician, setting up a medium-sized black market would not be difficult.

Sure enough, not far from Zorro's stall, Saine spotted the level one Black Magician, Lilianya.

Lilianya is a pure Black Magician; unlike Zorro, she does not possess strong alchemy skills.

The reason it was there next to Zorro's stall was probably to help look after the food.

At this moment, some kind of argument is taking place in front of Zorro's stall.

A burly, Gray-Armored Knight pointed at a magical item on Zorro's stall, spitting as he spoke.

On either side of the Gray-Armored Knight stood another Knight, presumably his companions.

This argument did not escalate into a fight. It is estimated that the Gray-Armored Knight was bargaining with Zorro. The magical item he was referring to was one of the few formal Magic Conductor on Zorro's stall, a blue arm shield.

Not only can Mage use it, but Knight also love this small and practical equipment.

This Gray-Armored Knight must be someone who doesn't have much money. Rich people usually commission Zorro to make magical items; very few buy ready-made equipment.

Behind the stall, Zorro, wearing a Metal Mask, was patiently explaining something.

Zorro, Saine's senior brother, was not an impatient person to begin with. After experiencing the death of his mentor and being defeated by Di'ersi, Zorro became more stable and composed.

Unfortunately, the other party didn't give Zorro any face.

As the argument grew louder, many Knight and Mage who had come to watch the spectacle gathered around.

The Gray-Armored Knight was incredibly shameless. Despite not being able to pay, he raised his voice even louder amidst the onlookers.

The Black Magician in the black market who side with Zorro will not intervene until the conflict escalates into armed conflict.

However, the level one Black Magician Lilianya and others had already approached, ready to make a move at any moment.

"Ahem, I think it's fair to sell this Magic Conductor for 27 Magic Coin," Saine said suddenly as he appeared in front of Zorro's stall.

Saine's interruption drew the attention of those around him, especially the burly Knight who was spitting everywhere.

The guy turned around and glared fiercely at Saine.

After seeing what Saine looked like, he said with utter disdain, "Where did this Little White come from?"

Before the Gray-Armored Knight could finish speaking, a fist burning with Azure Fire Flame was about to touch his face.
