Chapter 20 Unexpected News
When the three of them were shocked by the freezing ray, Gothe once again activated the spell model to release the spell.
The next moment, his left hand had already thrown out a small ball of emerald green liquid, piercing the air like a malicious comet, heading straight for the leading man who was slow to move due to the freezing ray.
After the ball briefly rotated in the air, it formed a large mist-like splash, and then landed accurately on the leading man.
As soon as the acid came into contact with the man, his clothes and skin immediately hissed and corroded, and billowing smoke and pungent smell of sulfur emitted.
The fabric of the clothes began to melt, and so did the skin, leaving a green trace of corrosion.
The acid only lasted for about three seconds before disappearing, but these three seconds already made the man miserable. He collapsed to the ground, rolled and struggled, and kept making painful wails.
In the dark alley, the acid quickly disappeared, leaving only corrosive smoke filling the air.
The man was lying on the ground, still twitching violently. His whole body was miserable, with burnt marks, and he couldn't see even half of his ferocious appearance.
The other two people were so frightened that they went crazy.
They have a certain understanding of mages, but they don't understand them deeply. In the final analysis, they are just "little gangsters" with a few connections.
So the two of them did not realize that a mage apprentice with no background like Gothe, at this age, would most likely be a first-class apprentice, with limited mana, and the maximum number of spells he could release would not exceed Five.
"Master Mage, Master Mage, spare your life. Spare your life, we don't know you are a mage, we offended you, we will never dare to do it again."
The second among the three can't help it. Begging for mercy, in his eyes, the boy with a childish face in front of him is simply more terrifying than the top thug of the city gang.
"You are a distinguished mage. Don't be like scum like us, and don't take action against us again." He said with a trembling voice as he saw the spiritual light appearing on Gothe's fingertips again.
The boss's tragic situation was right in front of him, and he really didn't have the slightest courage to resist.
He was afraid that he would end up like his boss.
Gothe silently lowered his right hand, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said coldly: "Who are you? Why did you attack me!"
The same question as before, except this This time they answered honestly.
“We are the miners of Nottingham Colliery”
He saw that Gothe's anger seemed to have subsided a little, just like a drowning man breathing oxygen, he hurriedly spit it out, "Since the Nottingham mines dried up, the three of us have lost our jobs and can only do odd jobs in the city. One day Working day and night.”
“We knew it wouldn’t be a problem if we continued like this. When we were drinking a few days ago, we heard the news that a new mine was under construction in Bremen and there was an urgent need for miners. I plan to go there and continue to run my old business, but”
“It’s just that you usually spend all your money in the pub, so when you need money now, you can’t even pay for travel, right? ?" Gao De understood and said coldly.
Miners in this era usually do not have the so-called savings consciousness, and all of them are "moonlight tribe".
As soon as I receive my salary, I feel happy first and then spend all the money on drinking or having fun.
Therefore, when wages are settled at the beginning of each month, it is the busiest time for the pubs in the city and the best business.
The second male was a little embarrassed, but he kept begging for mercy, "It's because we don't want to make progress, it's because we have a wrong idea, Master Master, please don't care about us scum"
"Why choose If you target me, do I look like a rich man?" Gaode didn't intend to let the three of them go and asked for the root cause.
The second child was very nervous. He glanced at Gothe cautiously and explained: "It's the boss. Some time ago, Phil's Potion Store was recruiting temporary herbal pickers. The three of us went and followed the clerks up the mountain to pick thorns. Grass, a herb collector who has been working for a few days..."
Gaode actually still had an impression of what this person said.
When he and Amy went to Phil's Potion Store for the first time, they did see the water sign at the door of the store saying that they were recruiting temporary herb pickers, which was completely correct.
"While collecting herbs, the boss was chatting with their clerk. One of the clerks shared an interesting story:
Among the four medicinal gardens that their pharmacy cooperates with, the magician of your medicinal garden is the only one. He loves to mess around, shipping low-level medicines to them, while constantly purchasing high-level medicines from them, and returning most of the money he earns to them."
"Then the leading pharmacist spoke up. He scolded him not to be disrespectful to Pharmacist Seda.
He also said that Apothecary Seda was in seclusion to develop high-grade potions without leaving home. Even the shipping and purchasing were done by his apprentices, which was enough to show his disgrace. Focus, once you refine a high-level magic potion, it will be amazing." "The boss just heard this and got his thoughts wrong."
"Then the boss asked about the apprentice who is responsible for purchasing medicinal materials and shipping in your medicine garden. Recently, you have been replaced by a much younger one. We thought that the younger you are, the more hands-on you are."
After hearing all the ins and outs, Gaode was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Have you ever found out when our medicine garden will purchase medicinal materials next?"
"If you can answer it, this I will let you go if you reply." He added.
"I know, I know," Lao San, who had been shivering at the side, said quickly after hearing this: "The clerk said that your medicine garden just placed an order last month, and this month I made another urgent purchase of the same order
It's just that they have other medicinal materials in stock, but the medicinal materials you purchased are rare and need to wait for the next restock in the store before they can be provided.
He also showed off that the pharmacist in your medicine garden is very anxious, but there is nothing he can do, because the medicinal materials he needs are only available through Phil Pharmacy in the entire Hogan City."
"The three of us have been squatting outside the medicine garden for several days. Today I saw you going out into the city and empty-handed. I guess the pharmacy must have restocked the medicine. You brought the money to pick up the medicine, so..."
Gaode After getting some key information, my attention shifted, and the anger in my heart gradually dissipated a lot. I waved my hand and said impatiently: "Go away. ”
The other party is just looking for money and is not prepared to kill anyone, and has been punished enough. In this case, he really can’t kill these three people.
Although Gothe dared to draw his sword brazenly when faced with the threat of Yilan, causing blood to spill three feet, he was not a violent and murderous person after all.
"Thank you Master, thank you Master, we are leaving now!"
Seeing Gao De let go, the two of them nodded like garlic, not daring to think or stay any longer, anxious He hurriedly picked up the boss, who was still lying on the ground in pain, and ran away.
Watching the three people leave, Gao De could feel some burning pain in his back.
That sap is very powerful.
Even if it's just a blunt instrument like a wooden stick, it's really uncomfortable to be hit like this.
But the anxiety and fanaticism in his heart made him temporarily ignore the pain.
The anxiety is because I learned from the three people that my time is really running out.
The fanaticism is because this is the first time Gothe has completely released a spell.
Even though he had cast and experienced the spell after successfully constructing the spell model, he still did not expect that the power of the spell would be so powerful in actual combat.
This is just a trick, what if it is a 1st level spell?
I’m afraid that with one spell, it would be too cool to have three people go to see them together, right?
Horn City, business district.
Phil's Potions Store.
Gaode looked at the door and walked into the store.
"What do you need?"
The clerk of the magic shop came up to him, quickly recognized Gaode, and greeted: "This time, the time interval between the two supplies of your medicine garden is shorter than before? "
"I'm not here to deliver goods today"
Gothe said while browsing the magic potions on the counter. There are a wide variety of them, but most of them are ordinary low-level auxiliary potions. .
“Our mage specifically asked me to ask if the medicinal materials he requested have arrived?”
"As you know, our purchase time is always fixed on the last day of the end of each month."
"We also know that Master Seda is very anxious, but he really needs to wait until the end of the month for the goods to arrive. Please tell Seda Master Da, please wait patiently." The clerk said with a smile, without the slightest hint of impatience.
"I understand, I will tell the mage." Gothe nodded as usual, turned and left the pharmacy.
