Chapter 60 Pierre’s Guess
Hua Yanyue, 15th.
A shining magical light flashed through the liquid.
Gaode dully poured the highly successful primary endurance potion solution into vials, showing no trace of joy at all.
After putting away the potion, Gaode felt a little irritable and couldn't calm down.
Since Oliver's visit that day, Phil's Potion Shop has stopped buying the primary spider poison potions produced in their medicine garden.
According to what they said:
Due to the increase in sales of primary spider venom potions during this period, the magicians in the city who mastered this potion also began to prepare primary spider venom potions. Lord.
In addition, the potion shop has been purchasing large quantities. Now the stock of primary spider poison potions in the drug store has been saturated, so the purchase has been suspended.
Although Gao De was dubious, after all, this statement made sense, so he let it go.
It just so happened that he had already mastered the preparation of the primary endurance potion, so he simply gave up on the primary spider poison potion, bought twenty more wolf gland fluids, and switched to the preparation of the primary endurance potion.
Unexpectedly, when he came to the door with the prepared primary endurance potion, Phil's Potion Store refused to buy it.
The reason given this time is "From today on, our store will only sell potions made by our own potion masters, and will no longer cooperate with non-our store potion masters."
At this point, Gaode still doesn’t understand that the idea of stocking up and being saturated is all bullshit.
The essence is to force him to sell the medicine garden, and at the same time force himself to join their Phil's Potion Store to prepare potions for them.
That's not all.
After this unhappy breakup, Gothe discovered that there were some idlers wandering outside the medicine garden.
Seda Medicine Garden was originally located in the suburbs of Hogan City, with a single family building.
There are no living facilities or stores nearby.
Even to buy food, the apprentices in the medicine garden have to travel more than half an hour to the market and commercial district in the center of the city.
Under normal circumstances, where would anyone be wandering around in a place like this?
Obviously, these "idlers" are people from Phil's Potion Store.
The intention is also obvious, not just to monitor and "intimidate" Gaode.
This is a combination of coercion and inducement.
The problem is, Oliver's method does work.
Although Gaode still has a certain amount of savings, if there is no income from potions, the medicine garden will go bankrupt sooner or later.
At that time, what else can he do besides joining Phil's Potion Store?
As for resistance?
What can a first-class mage apprentice do to resist?
Gaode was even secretly glad that he had been more cautious at that time and showed his value in time.
Otherwise, what he is facing now is not coercion and inducement.
Just what to do now?
The more Gaode thought about it, the more irritated he became.
Bear this breath and sell the medicine garden to them?
This seems to be the best decision at the moment.
After all, the other party also offered a purchase price of 200 gold, and also valued his potential very much.
If he really joins Phil's Potion Store, Phil's Potion Store will most likely focus on training him.
Although many restrictions will certainly be imposed, with Feng Ling Yueying here, he should be able to get rid of these restrictions as long as he endures his anger for a few years.
Looking at it this way, it is indeed a good choice.
However, Gaode has never considered this option.
Without it, I don’t want to be so angry!
If the mind cannot flow freely, no matter how many other principles are correct, they will not work.
While Gaode was thinking, he took out his money bag, counted it in detail, and came up with his current cash balance: 12 gold, 2 silver and 5 copper.
“We have to make a decision as soon as possible.”
The next day.
Gothe left the medicine garden with a package. "Do you want to follow?"
"No, the superiors just tell us to keep an eye on the medicine garden."
Seeing Gaode heading towards the city, then The two people who were monitoring him near the medicine garden glanced at him and then looked away without making any other move.
Although they were close to blatant surveillance, at least they did not go so far as to directly follow them, preserving their last bit of dignity.
business district.
Pierre Grocery Store.
Gaode brought the potions he had been hoarding for many days, and before he entered the store, he discovered that the content on the simple wooden sign at the door had changed.
“Our store will be closed in the near future, and all items in the store are sold at low prices.”
After just a week, Pierre is actually planning to close the grocery store and quit? !
Gao De was startled and quickly entered the store regardless of the purpose of his trip to "sell medicine".
Visible to the naked eye, the shelves in the store are already very empty.
"You want to leave?" As soon as Gaud entered the store, he saw Pierre drinking tea leisurely behind the counter, and asked straight to the point: "Going to Bremen?"
"Yes, I am already looking for the next store. Once I find the next store, I will leave and go to the city of Bremen to enjoy my old age." After taking a sip of tea, Pierre Niu put down his cup and replied.
"What's going on?" Gothe frowned, having a bad feeling in his heart.
"The strange case of missing people in the city has not been solved." Pierre first released a message.
"Didn't you say that the murderer has already..." Gothe replied subconsciously, and then he suddenly realized, "Is that just a scapegoat?"
"Well, it's just a scapegoat, and the population is missing. The strange thing was suppressed, not solved." Pierre nodded and gave an affirmative answer.
“People are still disappearing in the city.”
He paused, “Three days ago, a family living on the same street as me disappeared inexplicably. The situation is exactly the same, people are sleeping at home, and when they wake up the next day, they disappear at home.”
"This was discovered by his neighbors beforehand. Everyone came over to watch the fun. Before the city guards arrived, I also took a look at the scene."
"Except for some strange slime, there was nothing in the room. Not left behind.”
“And the objects in the room are very neat. It is definitely not an attempt to kill someone.”
“I suspect that this is not a man-made thing, but something that has never happened before. It was caused by the earth-line creatures that appeared in the Bremen area, so even the second-level mage failed to solve the matter."
"In the center of the city, there are earth-line creatures lurking in the dark and constantly committing crimes. It’s terrible.”
After a moment of silence, Gothe spoke again.
“Is it because of this reason?”
“Not entirely, the main reason.” Pierre sighed and said instead: “I didn’t go to Bremen last month. Can the city arrange a retreat? In addition to this matter, I also checked some information through my friends in the Emerald Alliance. "
"Under normal circumstances, each region has different magic concentration. There is an upper limit for creatures."
"But during this period, the number of creatures in the earth's veins outside the city has exceeded the total number that should exist in this area."
"Do you know what this means?"
Before Gothe answered, Pierre asked and answered himself: "This means that the frequent appearance of earth-line creatures outside the city is not a simple gathering place. The result is the emergence of new sources of earth-line creatures. "
"The earth-line creatures will only come from the earth-line."
El finally said something that seemed inexplicable, Gothe. But he suddenly understood, and his expression changed instantly, "You mean the anomalies outside the city are caused by new earth veins being generated?!"
He clearly remembered that when he bought the In this "Bremen Geography", there is this sentence:
"After the planes met, earth veins appeared frequently, and the number increased day by day. Earth vein creatures emerged. However, no new earth veins were born in the Bremen area for two hundred years. King Geros XII once praised Bremen as a blessing. Land."
Land of Blessing, how about no longer being blessed?
“I’m not sure, but I think it’s very likely.”
“At least now there is a high probability that a new species of leyline creature has invaded Hogan City. Isn’t this a coincidence? My guess?”
“New earth veins are generated, bringing new earth vein creatures.” Gothe murmured, understanding what Pierre meant.
