The Witcher: Elemental Lords
#56 - Guide to Carmen
Dore didn't even count, and pocketed the gold coins.
He looked at Lily, feeling he understood this girl somewhat. Although it was just one mission, their cooperation was good, and they had a foundation of trust.
Lily looked at Dore and took out two more gold coins, "I want a mental strength potion." Although she used a question, her tone was assertive.
Dore didn't know why Lily would know he could concoct mental strength potions, and he stared at her.
"Why would you say that?"
Lily bit her lip and said, "I wasn't sure at first, but after you said that, I believe it."
Dore was silent, this older sister was trying to trick him.
He thought for a moment, then took out a bottle of mental strength potion, saying, "Okay, but I can only concoct mental strength potions. I can't make anything else, I don't have the ingredients."
He implicitly admitted the fact that he knew potion-making, which was also a basis for trust.
Looking at the mental strength potion in Dore's hand, Lily excitedly took it. After several years of cultivation, she finally saw the potion, and there was hope of entering the advanced wizard apprentice stage.
Her voice became hoarse with excitement, "I can provide herbs, but I need you to help me concoct them. I only need one-third of the finished product."
Dore's eyes lit up, "You can find herbs?"
Lily sighed and said, "Yes, I work as a maid in a noble's house. They do medicinal herb business, and I can usually come into contact with apothecaries."
Dore looked puzzled, then said with a mix of certainty and doubt, "You're in the Leike family?"
Lily sighed, nodded, and said, "The Leike family controls some apothecaries and drug peddlers. They have always had transactions with the Ability Association. I secretly memorized the formula for mental strength potions, but later found that I had no talent for potion-making, so I could only give up. Originally, I wanted to exchange the mental strength potion formula for a disguise cream with you, but I just wanted to trick you a little, I didn't expect you already had it."
Dore's mouth twitched, understanding the girl's intelligence. He was still too young and naive.
Thinking of this, he said calmly, "I also obtained the inheritance of a fallen wizard. Regarding potions, I only know the mental strength potion. The mental strength potion is not difficult to make. I don't know if I have the talent for it. If you can get other herbs and formulas, I can give it a try."
Lily's eyes immediately lit up, and she said, "Okay, I can try. If you have the talent for potion-making, I will provide the herbs, and you help me concoct more advanced mental strength potions. If I have the potion, I can probably advance to an advanced wizard apprentice in half a year."
Dore was immediately taken aback and sized Lily up.
A mid-level wizard apprentice's mental strength is very low, and it can't even extend to the surface of the body. If they advance to the high level, they can break through this limitation, use casting materials, and release zero-level wizardry, magical tricks.
Even if it's just a magical trick, it represents the ability to form preliminary combat power, no longer so weak.
For any profession, a wizard who can use magic is the most terrifying. For nobles, being able to use magical tricks represents powerful combat power, an existence that cannot be provoked. And for the Ability Association, an advanced wizard apprentice represents someone who needs to be monitored at all times, and can be eliminated at any time if they do evil.
Wizards are synonymous with large-scale killings, and any uncontrolled wizard needs to be restricted.
In the Northern Kingdom, the situation of wild wizards is so miserable.
However, misery doesn't mean anything. Advanced wizard apprentices are still synonymous with power.
Dore knew his situation. He had been using mental strength potions, and his mental strength was growing very fast, but it was not rapid. One reason was that he was still young and lacked experience, and the other was that his potential had not been fully realized. After all, he was only thirteen years old this year. If he were Lily's age, he would have been an advanced wizard apprentice, or even a level one wizard.
But he was still a little envious, after all, the other party would soon be able to cast spells. A wizard who can cast spells is a real wizard.
He thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but you need to be careful and not expose yourself. The Ability Association controls wild wizards very strictly."
Lily nodded solemnly, expressing her agreement.
The two then left the dark slums.
Returning to his room, Dore glanced at Baal and breathed a sigh of relief. Only in this place did he feel safe.
Tonight, he didn't practice basic boxing or anything. Instead, he went straight back to his room to concoct potions, as it was almost time for the transaction with Old Mi.
In addition to ensuring the most basic transaction, what he needs to think about now is how to kill Carmen and Diss. Both of these people are from the police station, both are warrior professions, and are very vigilant. It is not easy to kill these two people, but Dore is not in a hurry.
Three days later, he came to the pharmacy 'covered in dust', with a bulging bag on his back, looking very much like a herb farmer.
Old Mi personally received him, and soon, they met in the back.
Entering the room, Old Mi and Dore traded the goods.
The backpack was empty, there was nothing in it, only a little medicinal herbs outside to cover it up. Again, there were a total of ten bottles of mental strength potion. Old Mi's face showed joy, but he remained calm.
Dore's output was not small, and he could earn several gold coins every month, which was unimaginable before.
However, what was unexpected this time was that Dore did not need strength potions or agility potions. He saw that the other party's body seemed to have been trained very well, why didn't he continue training?
However, he didn't ask.
The transaction was completed. Dore took the mental strength medicinal materials, as well as other medicinal materials, and several glass utensils. After putting them into his backpack, he did not leave, but stopped and asked, "In the future, does the pharmacy have any contact with the police station?"
Old Mi didn't know why Dore would ask this. He thought for a moment and said, "Our pharmacy is under the Leike family, and the police station is under the jurisdiction of the Oen family, so there is no relationship between them."
Dore immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "Are there many wizards in the Leike family?" He subconsciously thought that those mental strength potions were supplied to the Leike family.
Old Mi coughed and said some information that ordinary people didn't know, "The Ability Association recruits apprentices in Domon City, only accepting the descendants of merchants and nobles. The three major families and those wealthy people each have talents entering it, and our Leike family naturally has them too."
These potions were not actually supplied to his own family, but sold to those scattered wizards of the nobles, otherwise, how could he make money.
Hearing this, Dore understood a lot. He laughed and said, "I'll come to you next month."
Old Mi stretched out his hand and said, "Please."
Leaving the Future Pharmacy, Dore wandered around outside, quietly changed his clothes on the road, and then returned home.
Next, it was time to attack Carmen.
Carmen is a detective, and detectives have responsible areas. They follow the security guards every day, patrolling outside, and need to go to the door to deal with homicides and disputes. The area in charge is a small part of the East District. There are not many things to do, so they usually don't wander around outside, but drink in a fixed place.
Sometimes, drinking can also get things done.
The bar has always been a place where light and darkness coexist, and it is also the most complex place in terms of personnel, and it is relatively chaotic. Whoever can occupy the bar can obtain more information, whether it is official forces or the underworld, it is the same, except for the Assassin Guild.
Dore quickly learned that Carmen liked to go to a bar called Firefly, which was also under the jurisdiction of an underground force called the Butcher Organization. Carmen and this underground force jointly manage that area of the East District.
