Chapter 39: Sleeping Potion (Thanks to the leader of Gunda)
"If you have any medicine on you that can help restore your mental power, please lend it to me first."
It was definitely not realistic to meditate on the spot at this time, so Ronan asked a few people around him if they had the corresponding magic potion.
Old Wells and others shook their heads. The middle-aged wizard Barry said that he could help Ronan ask the wizards who were attached to his colleagues.
Barry walked into the crowd, and Ronan watched as he looked for people to ask questions one by one.
The response was basically a shake of the head.
There were also faint complaints.
"Didn't you agree that you won't be paid until you get to town? Why do you want benefits now?"
In the end, when the wizard Barry came back with a helpless face, the result was naturally nothing.
Ronan didn't feel disappointed either. It was just a matter of luck.
The price of mental recovery potions is almost the same as that of concentration potions. How can the low-level wizards living in the treehouse area have them?
Even if he had it, he might not be willing to take it out, even if Ronan specifically told Barry that he was buying it with money, not giving it away in vain.
"Forget it, let's go."
Ronan originally thought to forget it and called everyone to continue on their way.
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to set off, a weak voice sounded in his ears.
"As long as it's a potion that can help restore mental strength?"
Ronan was startled and quickly looked around, only to find that the person speaking was actually Barry's son, the young second-level apprentice wizard standing in front of him and not daring to breathe.
"Do you have it? Take it out and take a look."
Ronan spoke quickly. He remembered that Barry had introduced him before and his son's name was Sean.
"He has a fart!"
Before Sean could speak, Barry became anxious. He stared at Sean and shouted, "Have you ever seen a recovery potion? Do you know how many magic stones a recovery potion costs? How dare you say such nonsense?! "
"I definitely don't have the recovery potion, but I have made it myself! The effect is almost the same."
Sean retorted with an unconvinced expression and took out four or five potion bottles from his pocket.
Ronan was quite surprised, looked at Sean and asked, "You are actually a pharmacist?"
Sean smiled sheepishly, but Barry was helpless, "What kind of pharmacist is he? He just messed around with the potion books he bought from the street stalls. I haven't seen him pay that much attention to meditation... ugh."
Ronan didn't answer Barry's words and picked up the potion handed over by Sean and looked at it in front of his eyes.
The low-quality crystal bottle was filled with gray potion, and the obvious black sediment in it made Ronan hesitate.
"Are you sure it can restore mental energy?"
Ronan looked at Sean.
Sean patted his chest and assured, "Of course, I have drank it myself, more than once.
Just one bottle can restore all my mental strength
That’s it.”
Sean became hesitant at the end of his words, "It's a little side effect."
It would be unreasonable to have no side effects.
Not surprised, Ronan asked Sean what the side effects were.
"I feel sleepy. I will feel sleepy immediately after drinking it..."
Feeling sleepy?
Ronan frowned, "How long do you usually sleep after taking medicine?"
"Half an hour."
Sean answered without thinking, and then was slapped hard on the head by Barry beside him, "Drink a potion and sleep for half an hour. What kind of mental recovery potion is this? Just take the sweat potion!"
Sean covered his head and shouted, "That's why I named it the Sleeping Potion!"
"."
Everyone present was quite speechless, but Ronan looked at the potion in his hand and fell into thought. "Does each nap last for half an hour?"
"Not necessarily, sometimes it only lasts twenty minutes."
"Are you the only one who drank it?"
"Yes yes."
When Sean spoke, he glanced at Barry next to him a little guiltily.
After Ronan asked Sean a few questions, he thought for a while, unscrewed the bottle, poured a little into his mouth, tasted the taste, and drank the bottle in one go.
Several people around him were shocked. It was too late to stop him, so they could only stare at Ronan's reaction with wide eyes.
The effects of the medicine come quickly.
Just as Sean said, Ronan started to feel sleepy after a while.
Thick sleepiness surged up like a tide. He yawned one after another, and the eyelids of his eyes drooped downwards.
Once, twice, three times.
"Swish——"
Ronan woke up suddenly, as if he had taken a short nap in class on a summer afternoon, and his whole body felt indescribably awake.
"How long have I been asleep?"
Ronan asked the people around him. Old Wells took out a brass pocket watch, looked at it, and said hesitantly: "Half a minute? Maybe not even yet."
"Tsk."
Ronan's eyes lit up and a look of joy appeared on his face.
Just as he had guessed, the side effects of this drowsy potion that made people sleepy and dozed were indeed different from person to person.
Sean, a skinny young man, slept for half an hour, but he was so strong that he only took a nap for half a minute after taking one bottle.
As for the recovery effect of mental power, it is indeed very good. Ronan's originally only half of the mental power is now almost full.
"Very good, this potion is very useful to me!"
Ronan patted Sean on the shoulder with satisfaction, and casually took out two low-level magic stones from his pocket, which was considered as buying all the bottles of sleepiness potion that Sean took out.
In fact, Sean's "sleep potion" is not as magical as others think. To put it bluntly, it uses drugs to put people into a state similar to deep sleep, thereby helping to quickly replenish energy.
There is absolutely no comparison with the recovery potion that can be used to cast spells while helping to recover during combat.
But in this situation, it seems surprisingly appropriate to use it on Ronan, who has a strong physique.
Ronan said a few words of encouragement to Sean and then beckoned everyone onward.
The two magic stones he gave were forcefully returned by Barry, and Sean himself didn't care.
In contrast, being able to help Ronan and impress the people around him already made him feel very happy and excited.
Sean's eyes were obviously brighter and he became more confident. Even Barry's attitude towards his own son has improved a lot.
The group of people marched toward the town in a mighty manner, and the journey was unexpectedly smooth.
Except for the occasional encounter with a few blind Taoist robber wizards, who took one look at so many of them and immediately ran away with a change of expression, there were basically no setbacks.
Seeing that they would be completely out of the forest in about ten minutes, the team gradually became commotion.
Many people gathered together and whispered while walking, and glanced at Ronan from the corner of their eyes from time to time. Some people even walked further and further off, sneaking as if they would leave the group in the next second and go into the small woods nearby< br/>Ronan watched coldly, with no expression on his face.
He had expected this to happen.
When life safety is guaranteed and fear subsides, some people will definitely start to worry about the protection fee of the four magic stones.
Why does he want four magic stones from us when he hasn't done anything?
If I had known that I was so lucky and would not encounter any danger at all, I shouldn’t have promised any protection money!
Ronan knew exactly what these guys were thinking in their hearts at this time, and he was too lazy to care about it, and he couldn't care about it.
On the contrary, the wizard Barry looked very anxious next to him, and he hesitated to speak to Ronan several times.
After walking for a while, someone finally couldn't hold himself back and deliberately slowed down, or quietly moved closer to the bushes on the side.
Seeing that this temporary escape team was about to escape in the next second It fell apart at this moment
"Roar!"
An unusual beast's roar suddenly sounded from the direction directly in front, shocking the entire team's hearts to tremble.
Thank you to the leader of Gunda, thank you~
