They all call me master

Inside the box is a 10 ml test tube. Because the test tube is laid flat, the volume of the medicine inside cannot be accurately read, but according to Arthur's estimation, it should be 5-6 ml.

Of course, these are not the main points.

The key point is the medicine inside——

[Death Warrior Potion (Optimized)]!

Arthur was surprised by the [Optimization] suffix of [Death Warrior Potion].

But what surprised Arthur even more was that Bob at this moment actually had [spiritual] fluctuations in his body.

It was a friendly and sincere fluctuation, and under this fluctuation, more notes appeared in [Dead Soldier Potion (Optimization)]——

[Death Soldier Potion (Optimized): Bob, who entered the death camp during the Seven Years War, gradually rose to prominence. He was not only appreciated by his superiors, but also respected by his colleagues around him. He saved the lives of his superiors and colleagues more than once. , especially when he took the 'Death Soldier Potion' for the second time and was fine, the boss immediately appointed him as the captain of the first team of the death camp. Some people who are proficient in 'Potion Science' were very curious about Bob and hoped that You can seek some of Bob's blood. Bob was very cooperative and exchanged it for some 'mysterious knowledge'. In an unexpected raid, Bob also inherited the legacy of a 'potion master', which not only has some basic Potion formulas, as well as some advanced potion formulas, but the most important thing is that there is a 'death warrior potion'...

After the war, Bob and several comrades returned to North County to live for a while. However, as his comrades passed away one after another, Bob once again recalled the pain of his mother's death, which made him choose to leave. In the next thirty years, Bob While wandering, he perfected his killing skills, mastered the legacy left by the 'potion master', and made changes.

Effect: When someone takes this potion under your watch, the other person will become a loyal warrior to you. 】

(Note 1: Even if the [Death Warrior Potion] is optimized, there is still a risk of failure. If it fails, the person who takes it will die)

(Note 2: The physical and mental state of the user will affect the success rate of [Death Warrior Potion])

(Note 3: [Death Warrior Potion] is not valid for those who already possess or awaken [Spiritual Person])

(Note 4: The dead soldiers who survive after taking the medicine will greatly increase their physical strength, are not afraid of pain, and have a certain resistance to secret techniques that affect the mind)

(Note 5: The optimized [Dead Soldier Potion] has a greatly weakened effect on the life span of the Dead Soldiers, but the Dead Soldiers are still unable to have children)

…

Arthur looked at the [Death Warrior Potion (Optimized)] in front of him, with a smile on his face.

The young 'psychic medium' was surprised by the suffix after [Dead Soldier Potion], and also surprised that Bob had become a mysterious person, but Arthur was definitely not surprised that Bob would take out [Dead Soldier Potion].

Arthur was quite sure that the other party had already arrived in Nanlos after receiving Maltz's letter.

Why not just show up?

The other party is observing him.

Observe him to see if it's worth showing up.

Because of this, the other party thanked him for everything he had done for Cotton and Nicole.

Similarly, it was also because of the matter between Cotton and Nicole that the other party chose to show up and be honest with each other.

As Maltz said, Bob is a very pure person.

Faced with such a pure person, Arthur will not hide it——

"How much did it cost?"

Arthur asked directly.

"It costs about 500 gold coins, and there is a certain failure rate. If I refine it, one of the two will succeed."

Bob replied.

"What's the success rate of taking it?"

Arthur continued to ask about the key.

"If the patient's condition is good enough, there is a one-fifth chance - this was the previous success rate during the Seven Years' War!

The probability of taking the optimized potion is about one-half to one-third. The specific success rate still depends on the status of the person taking it. "

Bob said without any hesitation.

Arthur immediately began to calculate——

The success rate of the potion is half?

In other words, it takes 1,000 gold coins to successfully create a [Death Soldier Potion (Optimized)]!

Coupled with the success rate of those who take it, if calculated as one-third...

3000 gold coins!

And this is still optimized!

If it is not optimized, it will cost 5,000 gold coins!

'No wonder that with the behavior of those nobles, there is no large-scale 'death camp' organized - with the financial resources of the old lion and tigress, it is absolutely easy to set up a thousand-man team, but if half of them die in a battle, it will be two It is simply unbearable, and it will definitely make you feel so distressed that you can’t breathe! ’

The love and hate of the great nobles for the 'death warriors' could be fully imagined in Arthur's mind.

Love for its loyalty and ability.

Hate, it’s expensive.

Of course, there is the most important point -

life!

After taking [Death Warrior Potion], life span was affected.

Power does not come out of thin air!

Either you have talent or your life is overdrawn.

The former are the minority and the latter are the majority.

And the most common thing?

Still doing nothing.

Whether you choose actively or passively, this is how most people live.

After all, with 5,000 gold coins, most people in Nanlos would never earn that much in their lifetime.

As for the investment of 5,000 gold coins, when the premise is that it will be gone in less than a few years, no matter how big the noble is, it will be carefully considered.

Similarly, when you get to Arthur, although the investment is reduced to 3,000 gold coins, you still need to consider this issue.

Therefore, Arthur is very concerned about [Note 5]. The optimized [Dead Soldier Potion] has greatly weakened the effect of the potion itself on the life span of the dead soldier.

How much has that weakened?

Arthur immediately asked about Bob.

"If you take the unoptimized [Death Warrior Potion], you can only live for 5-10 years at most. I have taken [Death Warrior Potion] twice to break this shackles.

But I was the only one who survived after taking two [Death Soldier Potions]. "

Arthur could clearly see the memories and pain in Bob's eyes as he spoke without the need for [Fire-Gaze] or [Observation of Moments].

‘Is the original intention of optimizing the potion for the sake of your comrades? ’

Arthur guessed.

After the 'Seven Years' War' ended, those soldiers who left with Bob should have also taken [Dead Soldier Potion].

As the end of their lives approaches, these soldiers may have tried to take the [Death Soldier Potion] for the second time, but they all failed.

Arthur was thinking in his heart, as Bob's voice continued in his ears——

"Taking the optimized [Death Warrior Potion] will help you live for at least 25 years!"

Arthur did not ask Bob how he came up with such accurate data.

However, when he learned that each 'dead soldier' ​​could live for more than 25 years, Arthur knew that his 'Miss Qiu Security Company' could be listed.

3,000 gold coins each?

Then let him get 30 first!

With Harris's "100,000 black gold contribution", Arthur is not worried about the early construction of "dead soldiers". These people will become members of his [Black Cats].

With the expansion of coastal trade, especially with the premise of "tax-free", Arthur believed that the number of "dead soldiers" under his command would grow steadily.

There are 30 dead soldiers.

Can 3,000 dead soldiers be far behind?

10,000 dead soldiers is not a dream!

The corners of Arthur's mouth curled up slightly, he was looking forward to that day.

And now?

It is about selecting the initial members.

The necessary conditions are to have no father or mother, no wife or children, and good health.

And Arthur doesn't need to worry about any of this.

There are so many people on Mouse Street who meet similar qualifications, and Wiggins can handle them all.

In fact, when Bob showed up just now, Foggin had already gone to notify Wiggins.

Wiggins could arrive soon.

However, before Wiggins arrives, Arthur still has one thing to do -

Come out, my 'bandage swordsman'!
