Shadow Covenant

Chapter 14 "Market Information"

The number of alchemy potions that a demon hunter can withstand at a low level is not less than a hundred.

But can be classified into three categories.

One is the "blue potion" that increases physical fitness and increases the damage of the weapon in hand.

The production method of this kind of potion is very simple. The hearts of various monsters or other sources of power, supplemented with herbs that also have magical powers, can refine such potions with different effects.

The other type is the "Red Potion", which is similar to a healing potion and can quickly restore life within a period of time after drinking.

It is usually prepared from the monster's spinal fluid or blood.

Troll blood seems to be the best one out there.

In the early stage, even if you have a little blood left, you just need to drink the "red potion" made from the blood of the troll.

It can be quickly revived with full blood, and severed limbs will even grow back.

It was comparable to the priest's five-ring magic "advanced restoration".

It can be said that a bottle of this is a must-have for demon hunters in the early stage, no matter how expensive it is.

Because at critical times, this is a life.

The last category is potions specially prepared for various creatures, with special names that cannot be described by color.

For example, "black blood" that allows demon hunters to fish for law enforcement, deliberately turns blood black, viscous and poisonous, and targets blood-sucking creatures.

And the "slug" that can make the body seem to be coated with a layer of "grease", which can make the grappling and strangulation that snake monsters are best at invalid.

There is also an "iron lung" that has the same ability as a fish and can breathe underwater

The advanced alchemical potion "Blood of the Red Dragon" also falls into this category.

It can be said that in this category, there are only medicines that you can't think of, and there is no potion that a demon hunter can't make.

After all, at its root, the alchemy potion is nothing more than combining a certain quality of a monster with various materials, refining it and using it on oneself.

But behind every potion is the result of piles of money. This is part of the reason why most demon hunters look poor.

Many missions were entrusted, and even the demon hunter failed to earn back the medicine money.

Of course, that being said, Woody has no intention of saving money in this regard.

The alchemy potion is the soul of the demon hunter.

Buy it for sure.

Potions played a crucial role in his next plan.

……

The colorful tents in the "Fortune Avenue" square form a beautiful open-air market.

Woody opened it and entered, and felt that he immediately entered a meeting place that was several times more noisy than the outside.

The sound of hawking, talking, footsteps, and the sound of the piano from nowhere mixed together, forming an extremely lively scene of all beings.

The stone-paved square road at the foot divides several paths leading to different directions. Both sides of each path are full of stalls, and various items are placed on colorful tablecloths.

In the area where the elongated tent is stationed, semi-permanently stationed here between the tent and the table provides enough space for the carts and wagons of traveling merchants.

Some stalls are even sold directly on horse-drawn carriages to tourists passing by in the market.

Woody wandered around casually, experiencing shoulder rubbing.

Then I knew that the things sold in this semi-conventional market were very miscellaneous.

Whether it is bread to eat, clothes to wear, hats, and some weapons, even magic-related items, there are all here.

However, most of them have been used, like a large second-hand idle market.

This place is the same as Green Pine Lane, no matter who it is, they only need to pay a management fee in the market.

You can find a vacant place here and put it on for a whole day.

But here is much more complete than that, and many adventure teams outside the city will also choose to dump the spoils of adventure here.

Loot includes, but is not limited to, Relics of the Unlucky Ones scraped from monster lairs, and any valuable body parts from monsters.

There are also some adventurers who will put some unidentified items collected during the adventure on the stalls for sale.

There was once a player who bought a magic item from the Arcane Empire period from an aborigine at a very low price. After charging the power and restoring the original luster, the value has more than doubled by more than a hundred times.

Woody still remembered that the nautical chart that recorded the location of the legendary pirate treasure was still floating in the bottle above the sea.

Not long after the golden year, probably next September, it will appear in the underground black market of a dock city in the Mothan Kingdom.

At that time, the stall owner gave the unsold and unopenable rusty bottle as garbage to the boy who cleaned the ground of the black market.

But don't want to.

This led to the rise of the Pirate King known as the "Giant Shark Rock" who was extremely active on the Sea of ​​Thousand Sails and constantly attacked surrounding cities on the eve of the Dark Year.

The context and development of history appeared intermittently in Woody's mind, jumping and flashing.

But this has strengthened Woody's heart at the moment.

First lift the "curse of blasphemy" planted by the blasphemy cultists, then leave Palermo and start traveling and adventuring in the plane of Asenland.

While finding a way out for himself and looking for the traces of the star whale, he took out the treasures in his memory that had not been discovered in advance.

Even if those things can't be used by himself, they can solve his financial dilemma.

It is also good to prepare early for the dark years to come.

At that time, every inch of Asenland's land could be said to be uneven.

Only one's own strength can bring that irreplaceable sense of security...

……

Compared with other areas in the market, the adventurer's stall area does not have a high flow of people.

After Woody walked to the adventurer's booth area in the market, he found that there were an average of one or two people staying there in front of each adventurer's booth.

Compared with the food area in the market surrounded by a circle, this place looks very deserted and lonely.

But after seeing the things on the booth, I knew that there was a reason for the desertedness.

The head of the sahuagin whose blood was still wet was laid carelessly on the ground, next to the bloody half of the kobold.

The blood of all kinds of monsters flowed through the crevices of the gravel, mixed together, exuding a unique stinky smell.

People who don't know think they have come to the slaughterhouse.

Woody picked an adventurer's booth that occupied the largest area in the area. There were a variety of monster materials on it, and even the fur of a northern winter wolf appeared.

Obviously, this is no longer the scale that a stall can achieve, but a store.

The owner of the store was not a rough-faced mercenary who often went out to suffer from the weather, but a chubby, not tall philistine fat man.

At this time, he was introducing the second-hand weapons he had received at a low price to another customer in front of the booth.

Woody is used to this kind of store.

Generally, when many adventurers can't sell or have no time to sell, they will choose the nearest cheap one for him to recycle, or choose to sell it on consignment.

The boss earns the middle difference profit.

But for Woody, it saves him a lot of effort. What he needs most now is time.

"Hello, what do you need?"

I saw Woody kept looking around at his booth.

The fat businessman, who had forced a face of heartache just now and successfully "lost money" to sell the weapon to another buyer, showed his trademark smile and squinted his eyes.

He looked Woody up and down, as if looking at the financial resources of the blindfolded young man in front of him.

"That's right, I need to..."

"A cockatrice heart, five ounces of baby shark blood (the fiercer the better), and the seventh coccyx from the lizardman's tail..."

Woody was also polite, and directly reported the things he needed to buy to the stall owner in front of him one by one according to the list in his memory.

After finishing speaking, Woody stopped making a sound.

All he needs to do now is calculate the price, pay, and wait.

The philistine stall owner was naturally overjoyed when he saw the business coming, and hurriedly prepared the herbs and organs on the list for Woody.

And Woody's gaze, taking advantage of his free time, began to wander endlessly at the area of ​​the booth that belonged to the spoils.

scan.

Woody was stunned until his eyes locked on a corner of the booth, which was used to pad the height of tables and chairs, an inconspicuous brown leather book that had not been wiped off the dust.

Because the gilt lettering on the cover of the book told him the name of the old notebook.

"Anna of the Green Castle"

In the game, this is the beginning of a chain mission.

　There will be another chapter later, the saved manuscript has been changed, and it is being adjusted, and it will be updated at 6:55 when it is restored.
