Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

#337 - Admiral Iceberg visits Cruz Island

On the new pier of Cruz Island.

Audis explained to Edwina: "In the beginning, no one took it seriously, because in their view, this port was built with my money, so it is my property and has little to do with them."

"But now it's different. The spectacular scene just now made their inner pride burst, and they think that they also contributed to such a spectacular project."

Edwina was stunned for a moment: "You plan to give this port to the residents here…"

But she suddenly understood halfway through: "Are you trying to cultivate their collective consciousness?"

Hearing the phrase "collective consciousness", relevant knowledge appeared in Audis's mind: This is a concept put forward by Emperor Rosell, also called "national consciousness" or "national consciousness".

The general idea is to make the people have enough understanding of the nation and the country, and cultivate their sense of honor for the nation and the country, so that they can be organized more effectively, and let them know who they should be loyal to and who their enemies are.

Edwina knew that her guess just now was roughly correct when Audis smiled without saying a word.

At this time, she felt a little strange in her heart: A pirate is cultivating the collective consciousness of a group of natives!

This sounds very magical.

Audis didn't continue to talk about this topic, but waved to the "Argo" to let it sail into Moon Bay.

Next, the "Argo" and the "Golden Dream" became the first ships to enter the port.

After the two "Pirate Generals" ordered their crew to move freely, Audis took Edwina to the streets of the port town.

Audis pointed to the wide street and introduced: "At the beginning, the street was not so wide. At that time, it was just like an ordinary pirate town. The buildings were messy, and the alleys were very tortuous.

"Fortunately, they were all wooden houses, as long as there were enough people, they could move their positions relatively easily.

"So I seriously transformed this town."

Speaking of this, he suddenly sighed: "It's still comfortable to look at this kind of standardized street."

Edwina noticed that the streets on the main road of the town had been hardened, and workers were installing street lights on both sides of the street.

However, these street lights were a little higher than normal gas street lights, and Edwina did not see workers laying gas pipes.

Audis brought Edwina to a street lamp that was about to be installed, and the surrounding workers quickly saluted Audis.

Audis waved his hand to signal them to continue, and said to Edwina: "This is what I want you to see."

As he spoke, he squatted down and pointed to the metal parts in front of him: "The structure of this street lamp is very simple, only the base, lamp pole, lampshade and bulb.

"There is nothing to see in the base, the main thing is to let you take a look at the light bulb."

As he spoke, he took a wooden box from the side, and the bright light inside shone out. Even in the daytime, Edwina felt a little dazzling.

In the wooden box were palm-sized "Spirit Storage Crystals", and they were crystals full of spirituality. The brightness was almost the same as the street lights in Audis's impression.

Audis took out one of them and handed it to Edwina: "Hold it in your hand and feel it."

Edwina took it and immediately felt the surging spirituality stored in the "Spirit Storage Crystal".

She was stunned for a moment before asking: "What is this material?"

Edwina originally thought it was a "Lighting Crystal", which is a crystal that can emit bright light for a long time, but because of its scarcity, the price is expensive.

Edwina also thought that "Admiral of Mystery" had found a batch of "Lighting Crystals" somewhere, so he planned to use them here.

The reason why she thought it was a batch of crystals that were found, not bought, was because she knew very well that it would be a lot of money, and Audis would not waste gold pounds in this place.

At this time, Edwina felt that this seemed to be a material she had never seen before, as long as there was spirituality, it could continuously emit bright light.

"This is a material I accidentally discovered in a certain research." Audis reached out and took the light bulb: "As long as it is filled with spirituality, it can maintain such brightness for a year!"

Edwina looked at the "Spirit Storage Crystal" in front of her and asked: "How about the cost?"

Audis answered honestly: "In the long run, the cost is much lower than using gas."

Edwina asked again: "Is the manufacturing process complicated?"

"It's a bit complicated, but the manufacturing process is simple to operate. Most of the processes can be done by ordinary workers after sufficient training."

"Vice Admiral Iceberg" concluded: "This is definitely a material that can change the lighting industry."

Audis put the "Energy Storage Crystal" back into the wooden box, and then smiled: "How about we go to the top of the mountain to chat?"

Edwina nodded: "Okay."

Audis grabbed Edwina's arm and used "Travel" to bring her to a boulder on a high mountain.

From here, you can overlook the eastern and southern parts of Cruz Island. Edwina saw that there was still a large construction site on Lighthouse Mountain. On the side facing the sea, permanent military facilities were being built, including bunkers, turrets, and concrete-reinforced positions.

On the inner side of Lighthouse Mountain, government buildings and residential buildings are being built.

The military facilities have been completed. Edwina saw Noah, a crew member of the "Argo", directing the "Extraordinary Puppets" to assemble the "Extraordinary Machine Guns".

On the construction site on the inner side, at least five or six thousand people are busy. Such a labor scene is somewhat shocking to Edwina.

Audis sat on the rock, blowing the sea breeze and said: "The crystal I showed you just now, I named it 'Spirit Storage Crystal'.

"Lighting is not its main use. Its most important use is to store spirituality. Such a palm-sized 'Spirit Storage Crystal' can store enough spirituality to release ten Sequence 6 extraordinary abilities, or three or four Sequence 5 extraordinary abilities."

Edwina glanced at the street in Port Town: In that case, the value of these crystals is three times higher than "Lighting Crystals"… no, five times.

Audis continued: "In my research, this is a very important link.

"The most direct use is that by replacing the 'Spirit Storage Crystal', the extraordinary weapons and extraordinary tools I invented can avoid rest time. If the other parts are not damaged, they can be used continuously."

Edwina finally asked: "What is the production cost of such a 'Spirit Storage Crystal'?"

"About 20 pounds." Audis said this as much as possible. In fact, the cost is less than 1 sou, after all, the raw materials are just some sand and soil.

The reason why the cost is as high as 1 sou is because Audis included the machinery, magic circle, and "Extraordinary Puppets" on the assembly line.

The cost is 1 sou in terms of the current production volume, and as the output increases, the cost will continue to decline linearly. After all, after the machinery is built, the magic circle is built, and the "Extraordinary Puppets" are arranged, they can be used for a long time.

The production cost will become lower and lower. Just like now, after producing slowly for a year or two, if you calculate the cost again, such palm-sized "Spirit Storage Crystals" may cost less than a quarter of a penny.

The reason why Audis quoted such a high price is mainly because the biggest cost in the production process is actually the need for a demigod to use his ability.

That is the biggest cost. You have to have a demigod or an extraordinary person holding a Level 1 Sealed Artifact willing to help.

Edwina was somewhat shocked after hearing Audis's quotation.

Because, it's too cheap!

At this time, Edwina probably understood why Audis wanted to find her. Such a discovery would be a huge fortune, or perhaps it could not be described as huge, but rather a massive fortune.

No extraordinary organization would let go of such an opportunity. If too many people knew about these inventions, Audis would be very dangerous.

Then Audis said again: "The path I am taking now is a path that no one has walked before. The most difficult 'section' in the research and development stage has passed. The most difficult 'section' after that is how to promote these things."

He looked at Edwina and said: "I need a partner."

Edwina did not give a reply immediately, but after thinking for a while, she said: "Why don't you cooperate with the Church of the Night Goddess?"

"It's not that I don't cooperate." Audis explained: "But the cooperation with the Church of the Night Goddess is destined to be mainly in Ruen.

"The interest groups in this country are very powerful. I have to share the results with the Church of the Night, and also with those interest groups, which would be a huge loss for me.

"And I have done some understanding. The Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom is more powerful in countries such as Lenburg and Masik, and the interest groups in these small countries are not very complicated. Basically, as long as there is the support of the church, you will not encounter much resistance.

"After I have accumulated enough power, I will go to Ruen to develop, and I don't have to be polite to those interest groups."

Edwina was silent for a few seconds again before taking a deep breath and saying: "I will help report this matter to the church, and I will also report the plan you just said."

Audis smiled and said: "How should I thank you?"

"If this cooperation is reached, it will also be of great benefit to me." Edwina told the truth: "And you saved me, in theory, I shouldn't ask for any reward, but I really hope to learn to understand the magic circles you draw."

Audis smiled and said, "You should have said so earlier; this matter doesn't need to involve any reward issues."

"We are friends, and as friends, such requests should be fulfilled."

Edwina felt very comfortable hearing this.

At the same time, she realized that such a personal gift could not be handed over to the church for the time being.

It had to be handed over to the church after the cooperation began and with Audis's consent.

"That's a kind of rune I invented myself," Audis briefly introduced. "When I first came into contact with mysticism, I had a big discovery: the mystical symbols we commonly use now have been simplified."

"The real mystical symbols should be symbols that can 'express' extraordinary power, so I started looking for ancient mystical symbols."

"During this search, I came into contact with Ancient Giant script and Ancient Dragon script. While studying these two kinds of symbols, I had a major discovery: mystical symbols have no fixed runes or writing format!"

"As long as the runes are written through a certain algorithm and it is determined that they can mobilize natural and extraordinary power, that's enough."

"And the process of searching for ancient mystical symbols seemed hopeless, so I started inventing my own runes."

"The initial invention process was very difficult, but as I mastered more and more runes, the subsequent inventions became easier and easier."

"Until about a year and a half ago, I finally invented a set of runes suitable for human writing habits and thinking. I named it 'Galle Runes'."

Edwina was silent for a few seconds, but this time the silence was because of shock.

Originally, through this period of contact, she thought she already knew this man very well, but today's conversation once again subverted her understanding of Audis.

After a long while, she said, "Your achievement is as great as that of Hermes, who invented Ancient Hermes."

Before, she thought this was an ancient rune mastered by Audis. She never thought that this was a rune invented by Audis.

This made "Iceberg Admiral" realize that "Galle Runes" was Audis's first cooperation with the Knowledge Church.

Because this was too important, there would definitely be such a record in the future extraordinary history: the Knowledge Church played a vital role in the process of promoting "Galle Runes".

"I don't know if it's great or not," Audis smiled. "I only know that if I exposed 'Galle Runes' too early, the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery and the 'Hidden Sage' would definitely come to snatch it."

This was also equivalent to indirectly explaining why he broke up with the Steam Church: because of conflicting ideas, a good cooperative relationship was not established.

As he spoke, Audis took out the sub-array of the "Space Magic Array" and took out a small booklet from it: "This is a comparison table of the meanings of the 'Galle Runes' that I have compiled. The following are the calculation magic arrays and geometric usage specifications."

After learning from Bonova that they were deliberately concealing advanced magic arrays and ancient runes, Audis hoped that 'Galle Runes' could be popularized to more people as soon as possible.

Now was a good opportunity, and Audis could also use it as a bargaining chip to establish a cooperative relationship with the Knowledge Church.

Edwina took the booklet and flipped through a few pages as if she had found a treasure. After reading for a while, she closed the booklet with great restraint and continued to talk with Audis.

Audis smiled and said, "This is what I said before that I hope you can help me with."

"Now that the business is over, let's go release Grosel and the others together."

Edwina was stunned: "Have you found enough 'Swindler' characteristics?"

Audis nodded and smiled: "Yes."

Edwina didn't say anything on her lips, but she was feeling in her heart: his channels are very wide.

Audis pulled Edwina's arm again, and the two came to the hillside opposite Lighthouse Mountain.

Here, there was a small valley, and at this time, a large number of workers were logging and weeding, clearing out a large open space.

The arrival of Audis and "Iceberg Admiral" made them salute one after another.

Rupert, who was supervising the work, smiled and said, "Okay, as long as you respect the town chief in your heart, there is no need to salute so respectfully. Get to work quickly."

Then he quickly walked towards Audis and the "Iceberg Admiral": "Captain, Madam."

After a pause, Rupert reported to Audis: "If you want to build a village, you must clear all the vegetation here in the early stage. This process is a bit slow."

"Don't worry," Audis looked around before saying to Edwina, "I plan to build a village here and arrange for Grosel and the others to live here."

After they adapted to modern life, if they were unwilling to stay on Cruise Island, Audis would also expand this village and make it a part of the new town of Lighthouse Mountain in the future.

At this time, the ascetic Snowman, who was helping here, also came over to greet Audis and Edwina.

Edwina looked around and said, "The environment here is good."

Audis took out "Grosel's Travels" from the "Teleportation Magic Array": "I'll go in again, you guard outside."

Edwina said "Okay." Rupert, who was on the side, saw the captain cut his finger and smear the blood on the book. The next moment, the captain disappeared.

About ten minutes later, a tall gate appeared in front of Rupert. He saw a giant walking out of it.

The first mate of the "Argo" rubbed his eyes in disbelief. What came out of the tall double doors in front of him was really a giant more than four meters tall with a huge vertical eye!

Before, the captain said that he was going to build a house for the giant. Rupert thought the captain was joking.

At this time, Rupert couldn't laugh at all.

After the huge figure appeared, Shatas, with black hair and soft facial lines, followed out.

Rupert was stunned: "Elf?"

The legendary Elf!

The workers who were logging there were also stunned, staring blankly at the tall Grosel, forgetting the work in their hands.

At this time, Rupert completely understood why the captain wanted to build a village separately. If the giants and elves were arranged in Port Town and Plain Town, it would definitely cause a sensation and unease.

At this time, Audis came out with the last two people. One was wearing a Ruen-style costume, and the other was dressed very strangely. The left and right sides of the clothing were completely different.

Audis explained to them: "I have already organized people to build a new village for you here."

"However, it is still in the stage of preparing the site. During this time, you can live in a newly built workshop across the street."

He put away "Grosel's Travels" while smiling: "The accommodation conditions are a bit poor, but this matter is too urgent. At present, I can only find you a shelter from the wind and rain…"

Speaking of this, he saw Shatas and others looking blank, so he patted his forehead and said in Ancient Forsac: "I will use magical items first so that you can understand Ruen."

Then, somewhat unskillfully, he explained to Shatas and Grove in Ancient Elvish and Ancient Giant.

Edwina sighed: "Fortunately, you know many languages."

Audis smiled, then put away "Travels" and took out the "Helmet of Wisdom" for Shatas and Mobert, the nobleman of Solomon, to use.

Although Grosel's head was very big, this technology used spiritual infusion, and there was no need to put his head all the way in. It only needed to be activated normally.

After everyone understood Ruen, Audis said to everyone: "Most people in modern times have not seen giants and elves, so Grosel and Shatas should not walk around at will for the time being, giving the ordinary people here time to react."

"After a week or two, you can go around the island and see."

"I will prepare houses for you here and build a village for you separately."

"I suggest you live on this island for a month or two, and after you have completely adapted to modern life, leave here."

Grosel held an exaggerated giant sword in his hand and laughed twice: "I'll listen to you."

Shatas and others had no objection, after all, Audis only entered "Travels" for a day or two, unlike them, who had been together for a long time.

They were already very content to be rescued according to the agreement.

Audis said to Grosel: "I heard that there are giant tribes in the Northern Continent. I will send someone to help you inquire in advance. As long as there is news and you have adapted to modern life, I will take you to the giant tribe."

Grosel sighed: "That's great. I would also like to ask them, what have the giants experienced in these years?"

Audis also said to Shatas: "I do know a family that is an elf family, but after thousands of years of reproduction, the appearance of the elves has changed a lot."

Shatas's appearance still has obvious characteristics of East Asians, which is one of the reasons why Audis is willing to help them: there are descendants of fellow villagers among these five people.

However, the facial features of "Deep Sea Admiral" Hall Constantine are basically the same as those of the people of the Northern Continent. This should be the result of intermarriage with humans all the time.

Audis continued: "I heard that there are other elf races in the depths of the sea. I can help you inquire and send you a ship to sea in the future."

Shatas breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you."

Audis also said to Mobert, the nobleman beside this female elf: "I do have a clue about the Zoroastrian family, but I'm not sure if it can help you. You may still need to go to the Northern Continent to find it yourself."

No mistake, first release, one content, one look!

Morbet smiled and said, "To be honest, even if I found the descendants of the family, I wouldn't know what to talk to them about. This matter isn't urgent. I'll look for the elves with Xiatasi first."

Audis hummed in agreement, then said to Snowman, who had been out for about a week, "As far as I know, there are no more churches of the 'Ancient Sun God'. If you stay on this island, I can build a small church for you."

Snowman said, "The people here are very simple and honest. I am willing to stay here and continue my ascetic practice."

So Audis immediately instructed Rupert, "Build a small church in the style of the Third Epoch. Consult Snowman for the specific architectural structure."

Rupert immediately nodded, "Yes."

At this time, he had roughly guessed that the people in front of him seemed to be from different eras.

Finally, Audis said to the young Longze, "I briefly discussed it with you in 'Travel Notes'. Your situation is the most special. You need to consume the magic potion again to return to Sequence 5.

"However, because you have already digested the potion in 'Travel Notes', as long as your condition is fine and you can find the main ingredient of the potion in time, you should be able to become a true 'Punishment Knight' very quickly.

"As for the main material of the potion, you can try to collect it yourself, or you can choose to have me provide it for you.

"If you search for it yourself, be careful not to expose yourself, because you are, after all, a person from more than a hundred years ago. If you are targeted by the official Extraordinary, they will definitely arrest you for a serious investigation.

"And after becoming a 'Judge', return the mystical item with the Extraordinary characteristics of 'Judge' to me. After becoming a 'Punishment Knight', return the mystical item with the ability of 'Imagination' to me.

"If you need me to provide you with characteristics, you need to work for me. After all, for any organization, the characteristics of Sequence 6 and Sequence 5 levels are very precious."

Longze thought for a while and said, "Please let me consider it, but I prefer the latter."

He knew very well how difficult it was for him to establish connections in the Extraordinary world. There was no reason not to use the channels in front of him.

Audis added, "You should be the person who can adapt to this era most easily, but I still suggest you stay on this island for a few days. After confirming that the mystical item I designed is okay, I will arrange for you to go to Backlund.

"Before that, I can send someone to help you inquire about your family."

Longze rubbed his hands and expressed his gratitude with some excitement.

At noon that day, several people had lunch together in the wild. Audis had a concrete understanding of the giant's appetite. Grosell ate a roasted pig and a stewed sheep in one meal.

He didn't even spit out the bones when he ate, crunching them to pieces.

Audis and the others used bowls to drink the mutton soup, but Grosell directly picked up the pot and drank it.

This made Audis realize that the scale of the breeding town had to be doubled to support this giant.

As for before the expansion, he planned to have Rupert order some meat in Bayam in a while and send it through the teleportation array every day.

In fact, Audis had some selfish motives for rescuing these five people. If they could work for him, it would be equivalent to having five more subordinates at the Sequence 5 level, and his extraordinary power would suddenly become advanced.

However, of course, these words could not be said clearly. He could only build a good relationship with them and extend an invitation to them when the time was right.

Snowman had already agreed to stay, and Longze would most likely stay as well. This was already a very good start.

That afternoon, Edwina said goodbye and left.

After Audis arranged accommodation for Grosell and others, he returned to the ship and used the sacrificial method to give "Travel Notes" to Klein, and told him that the people who entered "Travel Notes" had all come out.

He breathed a sigh of relief: This hot potato has finally been sent out.

Audis had only just obtained this "Travel Notes" not long ago, and he had a "symposium" with Adam. He didn't want to take this kind of thing for a minute longer.

… …

"Golden Dream" ship.

Edwina stood on the deck, glanced at the port town again, and then quickly returned to the study and reported Audis's affairs to her new teacher, Douglas, by writing a letter.

After summoning the teacher's messenger and sending the letter, Edwina waited nervously for the teacher's reply.

For her, this was definitely a big deal. She knew very well the weight of "Gale Runes". This was definitely a major invention that could change the current state of the extraordinary world.

Even for the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, this was an opportunity to further expand its influence.

Only a dozen minutes after the letter was sent out, the space in the middle of the study suddenly became illusory, and Douglas, wearing the bishop's robe of the Knowledge Church, stepped out from the spirit world.

Edwina was stunned for a moment before quickly stepping forward and calling out, "Teacher."

She realized that the church also attached great importance to this matter.

Or rather, this must be a matter that the church attaches great importance to.

Douglas was a middle-aged man who looked approachable. He nodded to Edwina, and then said solemnly, "Tell me in detail the process of Audis designing 'Gale Runes' and discovering 'Spirit Storage Crystals'."

Edwina immediately gave a detailed retelling. Douglas let out a long sigh: "No wonder the great 'Incarnation of Knowledge and Wisdom' issued an oracle to the Pope regarding Audis's affairs. It turns out that Audis is still hiding such a big secret."

Edwina was stunned for a second or two before asking in some surprise, "The 'Incarnation of Knowledge' even issued an oracle?"

She now suddenly understood why the sealed item given to Audis was approved so quickly. It must have been the oracle that made the church's high-level officials pay enough attention, so they simplified the process.

Edwina was also somewhat surprised by the level of attention.

Douglas added, "After the search for Extraordinary characteristics is over, try to get Audis to go to Lunburg as much as possible. As long as he is willing to accept baptism, he will immediately become a favored one of the gods."

Edwina paused for a second or two before saying, "I'll do my best."

… …

Bayam, Azure Hotel, Room 203.

Klein returned to the real world from above the gray fog. He had just entered "Grosell's Travels" to explore.

Because the story has ended, he can now freely enter and exit "Travel Notes".

At the same time, he discovered that Grosell and others were still in "Travel Notes"!

He originally thought that Audis had made a mistake, but after careful observation, he realized that it should be the spiritual remnants of Grosell and others.

They continue the story of the main body in the book.

This gave Klein a sudden idea that he could obtain some information from the Second and Third Epochs by entering their dreams.

But he had to wait a while and make some preparations before exploring.

Knock knock knock ~

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door. Klein looked at the door and asked in a stern voice, "Who is it?"

"Sir, someone has sent you a letter." It was the voice of the waiter.

Klein was stunned. He came to the door, and a scene outside the door appeared in his mind. The waiter was standing at the door with a letter.

The letter didn't seem dangerous.

So Klein opened the door, took the letter, closed the door, and divined again to make sure there was no danger in the letter before opening it.

In the center of the letter paper were written two lines: Please investigate "Magical Medicine Shop" on Kent Lane, reward 80 pounds. If you can investigate the boss behind the drugstore, the reward is 300 pounds.

If you agree to accept this commission, please put a pot of flowers on the windowsill. If you don't see the flowers within two hours, it will be regarded as unwilling to accept this commission.

Klein smiled: This guy is more careful than me.

He lay down on the easy chair, holding the letter in his hand, and silently said in his heart: "The source of this letter."

"The source of this letter."

"… …"

Then he fell asleep in a "meditative" way, using the ability of "dream divination".

At the moment Klein fell asleep, his vision was gray, but the scene in front of him quickly stirred, outlining a picture. A man in his thirties, wearing a black robe, with a round face and a chubby figure, was lying on a walnut desk and writing down the two sentences on the letter paper.

Seeing the other person's figure, Klein recognized that this was "Fat Pharmacist" Dakewell.

The subsequent scene was that Dakewell took a carriage to the Azure Hotel and gave the waiter a 5 pence tip, asking him to send the letter to Room 203.

Then, Klein woke up from his dream. He pondered for a while, picked up his cane and went out.

Quickly came to the back of the hotel, Klein found an owl on the building on the street behind, staring at the window of Room 203.

That was Dakewell's pet Harry.

Harry also saw Klein, about to spread his wings and fly away, Klein said in a stern tone: "Tell Dakewell to come over within three minutes."

As he spoke, he shook the envelope and letter in his hand.

Harry was stunned for a moment, nodded, and immediately flew away.

In less than three minutes, Dakewell ran over quickly, with a layer of fine sweat on his round face: "Are you the guest in Room 203?"

Klein hummed.

"I knew it earlier…" Dakewell said to himself: If I had known, I would have visited directly, which would have saved me the trouble of writing letters and stuff.

Klein looked around and asked when there was no one on the street, "How did you know I lived here?"

"The old man… my teacher told me." Dakewell was somewhat guilty.

Because his teacher's original words were to let him go to Room 203 of the Azure Hotel to find someone who could investigate the boss behind the magical medicine shop.

It was Darkwill's own cleverness that led him to hide his identity in this way.

In fact, he had another letter on him, which detailed the information about the Miracle Medicine Shop and the direction of the investigation.

As long as the owl, Harry, saw a pot of flowers placed on the windowsill of 203, he would have someone send the second letter.

Darkwill was quite pleased with himself for this, feeling that he had designed a plan that would not expose his identity at all.

Actually, there was a simpler way to handle this matter. If he had used the channels of the 'School of Life's' Creste, he would have known what was going on.

However, because Rupert did not actively report this matter to his teacher, the 'School of Life' did not yet know what was happening.

Klein was not very surprised to hear the words of the 'Fat Apothecary'. The demigods of the 'Monster' pathway were always mysterious, but they could always find people who could help them.

He then said, "Tell me about that medicine shop."

Klein was mainly interested in what kind of medicine shop the 'School of Life' was investigating, perhaps there was some secret hidden behind it.

"It's a medicine shop that just opened a little over a month ago," Darkwill introduced. "At first, everyone thought it was just an ordinary medicine shop, but soon a rumor spread throughout Bayam that the potions there could cure malaria within three days.

"You may have heard that as long as you suffer from malaria, unless you encounter a true 'Apothecary', whether you can survive depends on luck.

"So many people went there to try their luck, and as a result, after drinking the first dose of potion, the symptoms of malaria immediately lessened. After drinking the second dose, it was basically cured. After drinking the third dose, it was truly cured."

Klein had a guess in his mind: This should be extraordinary potions, that is, potions prepared by an 'Apothecary'.

Then he had some doubts in his heart: What's so special about this that needs investigating? Bayam should have more than just Darkwill as an 'Apothecary', right?

At this time, the owl, Harry, landed on the roof next to them, keeping watch for the two of them.

Darkwill continued, "At first, we all thought it was a pharmacy opened by an 'Apothecary', and we believed that such a pharmacy would not last long and would soon be targeted by official Beyonders.

"But after more than half a month, not only did that pharmacy not close, but its business was booming, and those potions were even炒 to more than a dozen pounds!

"I heard that in order to prevent people from reselling them, the medicine shop has a rule that the potion must be drunk in person, so those potions truly entered the mouths of malaria patients.

"The strange thing is, the official Beyonders didn't care about this medicine shop at all.

"Just a few days ago, this medicine shop has opened five branches in Olavi, Dirnith, and other major islands, and has even started offering new medicines."

Klein slowly nodded: The official Beyonders don't care, which means this medicine shop has an official background.

"At this time, a piece of news appeared in Bayam, which I don't know if it's true or false," Darkwill said. "It said that this medicine shop hired more than a dozen 'Apothecaries' at high salaries to provide enough potions for the shop.

"But I don't know if the boss behind the medicine shop is doing charity, each dose of potion only sells for 15 Solas!

"Logically speaking, this price is not enough to pay the 'Apothecary's' salary at all, because the 'Apothecary's' spirituality is limited, and they can't prepare many potions in a day, which is why the potion I prescribe costs 10 pounds.

"Even if this herbal medicine shop has very good sales, the cost shouldn't be so low.

"So the teacher sent me to investigate, and as a result, I found that the nurses and attendants selling medicine there are all ordinary people.

"In addition, I observed for several days, but I never found anyone sending potions to that medicine shop.

"Originally, I thought that the 'Apothecaries' were making potions in the basement of that store, until I found the landlord and inquired with him, only to find out that the basement of that store is not big."

Speaking of this, the 'Fat Apothecary' spread his hands: "I don't know how to investigate anymore, so I wrote a letter to the teacher, and he told me to come here to find you.

"As long as you can find out how they make the potions, you can receive a reward of 80 pounds, and if you can find out the boss behind the scenes, you can receive 300 pounds."

"500 pounds," Klein said. "Because this matter is very strange, no one would accept such a commission for 300 pounds."

Darkwill opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Alright then."

He had to pay for the reward for this investigation himself, but his teacher promised that as long as he found out who was behind the medicine shop, he would give him the Sequence 7 potion formula.

After entrusting the escort mission to Gehrman Sparrow last time, Darkwill gave all his money to this crazy adventurer as a reward. Recently, his business has been good, and he has just saved about 500 pounds.

Unexpectedly, it went into Gehrman Sparrow's pocket again.

Happy New Year! I wish everyone a prosperous new year and all your wishes come true.

By the way, please give me a monthly ticket.
