After making a round of the stalls on this floor with Florella, Sylutia gradually picked up quite a few insights.
Since the students were generally First Order, most of the goods sold here were useful for this stage. Things like weapons and equipment were not much different from those outside, and were even a little cheaper, because students usually prepared them before entering The Woodland and rarely needed to buy them midway through.
Items for daily comfort and enjoyment were priced around 20% to 50% higher than outside. Most people had not expected to remain on the road for so long, and in their boredom, supplies such as the wine, tea leaves, and spare clothes in their luggage gradually ran short and had to be purchased anew.
The most expensive items were probably those related to increasing one's strength, often costing double their outside price. For example, Blood Wine that cost one gold coin outside sold for two to three gold coins here, yet there were still buyers.
Besides that, Sylutia saw many secret art manuals for sale.
"[Flame Sphere Technique] for sale! Comes with the Red Snow Powder formula and usage techniques."
The so-called Flame Sphere Technique was the ability to instantly ignite thrown Red Snow Powder, enhancing its explosive force and heat. It was a basic Blazing Sun Aspect Power ability. Every battle consumed Red Snow Powder, and its power was quite respectable. Its only drawback was that Red Snow Powder had to be made and replenished with money; once it was used up in battle, the technique could no longer be cast.
Sylutia vaguely remembered that Winnie, Talia's older sister, had once studied this ability.
"How much is this secret art?"
"Flame Sphere Technique plus the Red Snow Powder formula, ten gold coins altogether."
"That's rather expensive."
