"Ding Dong" accompanied by the sound of Merlin pushing the door, the small wind chimes hanging above the door were touched, and under the dim light of the store, a crisp sound was made, and the sleepy shopkeeper who was lying on the counter woke up.It was a pretty girl.She looked to be in her 20s, and she was the most beautiful in a woman's life, with long bright orange-yellow hair tied in a single ponytail at the back of her head.She was dressed in an old-fashioned but cool brown hunting outfit, a black trench coat, no powder on her face, and a little light freckle on the side of her nose.Her eyes were peculiar, very clear blue, like a handful of seawater.When she looked up, she saw Merlin walking into her shop with a cane that could no longer be described as deserted."
Hello, guest."
The shopkeeper yawned, she looked sleep-deprived, and she casually said, "What do you need?"
”"What do you have here?"
Merlin stretched out his finger and touched a golden-bronze toad on the watch counter.The toad had some square-shaped money in its mouth, Merlin felt that this thing was very familiar, and he vaguely remembered that this should be the custom of the eastern country.In every store, there are such decorations, which represent the meaning of rolling wealth."
It depends on what you need."
The shopkeeper held her chin with her hand and looked at Merlin with a bored look, she didn't have the idea that the customer was a god at all, so she said lazily: "We are a mystery item store, and most of the people who come here buy some amulets.There are many amulets here, Christian, prophetic, Eastern Taoism, Buddhism, Shintoism in the East, Indian in North America...""
Alright, don't talk about it."
Watching her say a series of things in the way of announcing the name of the dish, Merlin interrupted the female shopkeeper's description with a wave of his hand, and he turned his head to look at her and whispered, "I want some, 'real' things." ”"Really?"
The female shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then her expression became unpleasant, and she said fiercely: "Do you mean, everything in my store is fake?"
This guest, this Yang's accusation needs proof!
If you talk nonsense, I'm going to kick you out!"
”"No, I didn't mean that."
Merlin glanced at the things left and right, he shrugged his shoulders, a strange smile flashed across his slightly pale face, and he said, "These things are good and valuable, but they are not what I need. ”"I'm sure you've heard recently about the deteriorating law and order in New York, and rumored to be because of the vampires working in the shadows.Most of my working hours are at night, so I need something to protect myself, I mean, something to deal with vampires. ”"Oh, that's right."
The shopkeeper nodded, she beckoned to Merlin, then turned around and took out a box from the window behind her and placed it in front of Merlin's eyes.She said to Merlin with a mysterious expression, "For your sake, I can sell you my secret 'Vampire Hunter Armament Pack', which is said to have been passed down from medieval vampire hunters...
It's precious, so it's expensive, and I want you to be mentally prepared. ”"Money, not a problem."
Merlin sat at the counter, he was like a person who really needed help, he hid all his breath, and said to the shopwoman in front of him, "As long as it's really what I need." ”"Aha, I like the bold guest."
The shopkeeper's languid demeanor finally changed, and she reached out and opened the quaint-looking, delicate box.There's a lot of stuff inside.A couple of potions in bottles, a box of tinkling things, and a delicate little crossbow and two short swords, looked decent."
Holy salt potion, if you encounter a vampire, you will scatter it, and the most powerful vampire will flee in embarrassment!""
And this, the secret holy oil, if applied to the body, the vampire will not be able to detect you, and it will protect you from the virus on the vampire's teeth."
The shopkeeper introduced Merlin to Merlin: "This box contains arrows mixed with holy silver, and it should be used together with this demon hunter's crossbow. ”She raised her palm-sized crossbow and made an aiming gesture in the air, and she said to Merlin, "As long as you shoot fast enough, those vampires won't try to get close to you." ”"Finally, this one!
This is a real killer. ”The female shopkeeper put down her small crossbow and picked up two silver short swords, she winked at Merlin mysteriously: "Authentic vampire hunters call it 'Demon Hunter', very powerful, look at these spells, this is a real demon hunting rune, no matter how powerful a vampire is, he can't stop such a short sword slash." ”She picked up the two short swords, waved them in the air, and then patted the box, and said to Merlin with a fluttering eyebrow: "With these things, you can walk sideways under the dark night of New York, and now count yourself lucky, my store is just two months of celebration, and these things will be discounted by 20%. ”"Hmm...," she pulled out a computer from the counter, clicked it a few times, and then said to Merlin with a hypocritical smile on her face, "It's $4,776 in total, and of course, I accept payment in other currencies." ”"Wait a minute."
Merlin looked at the smiling face, and he didn't know what to say about the girl in front of him.So he decided to speak with facts.He lowered his head, stretched out his fingers, picked up the illicit holy salt potion she claimed could kill all vampires, opened the bottle, and sniffed it gently, the pungent smell made Merlin frown.He put the potion in front of the girl's eyes and whispered, "Diluted volcano potion, this bottle of the amount, if thrown out, it might burn two and a half vampires." ”Then he picked up the "holy oil" again, sniffed it the same, and placed the bottle on the table."
The wrong Shadow Protection Elixir, if I'm not mistaken, you should have reversed the amount of Shadow Grass and Evening Primrose.This makes it much less efficient, but barely able to block 10-15 vampire blows. ”The female shopkeeper's face was a little unpleasant, and she quietly reached out and grabbed a weapon on the counter.Merlin's "correction" continues."
It's a very delicate little thing."
He picked up the slightly heavy small hand crossbow, as well as a "Demon Breaking Arrow", looked at it in his eyes, and then shook his head with some regret: "It's a pity that the content of holy silver is too small, it is estimated that 3 must be shot, and they must be shot in a lethal position to be able to kill a real vampire." ”"Finally, this one, what do you call it?"
Merlin glanced at the shopkeeper in front of him, he picked up the two bluffed "Demon Hunter" short swords, he looked at the shiny runes on the short swords with an expert gaze, and said: "The holy silver content of these two things is enough, and a well-trained warrior holding it can indeed fight a bloody way in the encirclement of vampires."
It's a pity that these Evil Breaking Runes are carved in the wrong way, and they are of little use other than to look good, and to make their structure fragile...""
Huh" When Merlin looked up, the shopkeeper took a step back, and she had an extra silver-gray crossbow in her hand.It was almost a replica of the small hand crossbow in front of Merlin's eyes, but it was twice as large, and in the light of the light, the metal hand crossbow danced with a dull sheen, and the tip of the arrow that had been wound exuded a chilling aura.The arrow was less than 15 centimeters from Merlin's forehead, but when he saw it, Merlin's eyes suddenly lit up."
I want this thing!"
He looked at the crossbow pointed at his head, and he gently said to the nervous shopkeeper, "Make a price." ”"This is my guy for dinner, not for sale!"
The beautiful female shopkeeper subconsciously roared, she stared at Merlin, and shouted, "Who are you?"
Is it the dogleg of the Magic Congress?
How many times have I warned you!
I'm just doing business seriously, why are you bothering me!
”"You go!
Let's go now!
”She glared at Merlin and screamed as she pointed to the doorway.But the latter didn't do much.Instead, he coughed lightly, pointed to the "Vampire Hunter Armed Bag" on the table, and said to the nervous shopkeeper, "Don't be afraid, I'm indeed here to buy something."
Prepare 100 sets for me, of course, don't add those messy runes to the holy silver knife, and the holy silver content of the crossbow arrow must be more, this time don't make a mistake about the content of the two medicines. ”Merlin took out a bank card from his pocket, he looked left and right, and said to the girl with the weapon: "Counting the labor cost, it will be calculated as a set of 4,000 US dollars, but how do you pay the bill here?"
Is there a POS machine?
”"You...
You..."
The girl was a little confused by Merlin's way of playing cards according to the routine, she looked at the bank card in Merlin's hand, hesitated for a moment, then put down the crossbow and took out a Pos machine from the counter.Seeing Merlin swipe the card to pay the bill, she looked at the arrival notification on her mobile phone, and she was a little dazed when she saw the string of zeros on the number.This...
That's it?
I am now worth hundreds of thousands?

Hell, Mom and Dad didn't tell her that making money was so easy.Wait, that's not the point of the question!
The shopkeeper looked at Merlin again, who was fiddling with her crossbow."
Who the hell are you?"
She asked, "What do you want these things for?"
100 sets...
Are you going to arm an army?
”"You don't need to know who I am."
Merlin admires the silver-gray crossbow in his hand in a way that admires the artwork, which is the real alien killer.Although he had never used this weapon, he could imagine just from the structure and the blood groove at the top of the silver arrow that once this weapon was activated, the arrow pierced into the vampire's body, and the demon-breaking effect of the holy silver, plus the wound opened by the blood tank, the low-level vampire had no possibility of escaping under the pursuit of hunters with such weapons."
You just need to know that I need these things.And it's much cheaper to buy from you than to spend money on a custom order from those weapons dealers. ”Merlin put the crossbow on the counter, he looked at the girl in front of him with a look of pity, and said, "Also, is this thing really not for sale?"
I'll pay $50,000...
If you have better, the price can be higher. ”"Not for sale!"
The girl looked at Merlin's shining eyes and hurriedly put her weapon back on the counter, she looked at Merlin, and she said, "This is what my father left me, this is the family inheritance, do you understand?"
I don't sell it for any amount of money!
”"Oh?"
Merlin rubbed his chin as he counted the current accounts of S.D.O.L.D., and after a moment, he knocked on the table and looked at the girl, "That... 100,000?
”"Uh" The girl's eyes jumped, she gritted her teeth a little reluctantly, and shook her head stubbornly: "If you don't sell it, you don't sell it!"
Don't ask. ”"200,000!""
Not for sale!
Alas, where did you come from, why are you so annoying!
”"300,000!""
Deal!"
Merlin said his bottom line number, and the girl who was still stubborn just now took out the crossbow from the counter without saying a word, and handed it to Merlin along with a box of crossbow arrows.She took out the Pos machine again and waved at Merlin with a treacherous expression: "Pay the bill now, don't think about denying it!"
”"Is your family's inheritance so worthless?"
Merlin swiped the card with a strange look on his face and said, "300,000 to sell what your father left you?"
”"That's what my father left me."
The shopkeeper looked calm, and even said with a smug smile, "But I didn't say that he only left me one thing." ”As she spoke, she reached out and pressed on the display shelf behind her, and the next moment, the eight wooden planks around the display shelf were turned outward and reorganized, so that most of the walls behind the girl became a large shelf for weapons collection.In front of Merlin's eyes, more than 100 weapons that shone with pure holy silver light were impressively listed.From the oddly shaped serpentine dagger, to the thorny stabbing sword that shone with cold light, to the heavy engraved war spear, and then to the demon hunting crossbow that was exactly the same as Merlin's hand crossbow, the shelves ranged from small to large, enough for a whole row.Underneath the shelves, there was a row of firearms, several silver pistols, black shotguns engraved with orthodox runes of evil spirits, and powerful shotguns.There are even a couple of beautifully shaped war bows, as well as a couple of grenades hanging from the board.Frankly, a hunting weapon of this magnitude really scared Merlin.He had never seen so many weapons that were actually used to hunt aliens placed together, and he could tell that these weapons were the finest of masters, and they were the ones that everyone who dealt with aliens craved.And on these weapons, Merlin smelled a strong aura of slaughter, which means that they are not just decorations, they are all real killing weapons."
If you still want to see it, there are a few shelves in the back room."
The female shopkeeper crossed her waist, she looked at the money received in her mobile phone happily, and she said to Merlin without raising her head: "If you want to buy more, then the price is negotiable, after all, you are also a regular customer." ”"So, who the hell are you?"
The same question was thrown out by Merlin.He didn't think that the owner of any mystery shop on the corner would be able to casually come up with so many hunting weapons for aliens.He looked at the girl in front of him and asked with a straight face, "Which is your family?"
”"My name is Elsa."
The shopkeeper looked up at Merlin, and she said, "I know what you're suspicious, the vampires near Hell's Kitchen are all the ones I drove away during this time."
As for my family...
I can't tell you just yet. ”"Then let me guess, you're from the Bloodstone family, one of the most famous vampire hunter lineages in Europe, right?"
Merlin looked at Elsa and said, "Your father, isn't Ulysses.
Bloodstone Master?
”"How do you know?"
Elsa looked at Merlin in surprise, who picked up the crossbow she had bought and pointed to the wooden handle underneath it, where there was a line of tiny, old engravings."
I don't know much about your world, but I still know the crest of the Bloodstone family."
Merlin looked at the weapon behind Elsa, he stood up and whispered, "Wait a minute, I'll make a call." ”"You weapons...
If you really want to sell it. ”"I want it all!"
