Chapter 60 Pierre’s Guess
Hua Yanyue, 15th.
A shining magical light flashed through the liquid.
Gothe poured the highly successful primary endurance potion into small bottles in a dull manner, without any hint of joy.
After putting away the medicine, Gaode felt a little irritable and couldn't calm down.
Since Oliver's visit that day, Phil's Potion Shop no longer purchased the primary spider poison potions produced in their medicine garden.
According to what they said:
During this period, due to the increase in sales of primary spider venom potions, the magicians in the city who mastered this potion also began to prepare primary spider venom potions.
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.
Just as he had mastered the preparation of the primary endurance potion, he simply gave up on the primary spider poison potion, bought twenty more copies of wild wolf gland fluid, 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 why stocking up 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.
This is not enough.
After this unhappy separation, 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 shops 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 idlers come from in such a place?
Obviously, these "idlers" are people from Phil's Potion Store.
The intention is also very obvious, not just to monitor and "intimidate" Gaode.
This is a combination of coercion and inducement.
The problem is that 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 even secretly rejoiced that he had been more cautious at that time and showed his value in time.
Otherwise, what he is facing now is not coercion or inducement.
Just what to do now?
The more Gaode thought about it, the more irritated he became.
Suffer this breath and sell the medicine garden to them?
This seems to be the best decision at the moment.
Hash to say that 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 Wind Spirit Yueying here, he should be able to get rid of these restrictions as long as he endures it for a few years.
Looking at it this way, it is indeed a good choice.
It's just that Gaode has never considered this option.
Without it, I don’t want to be so angry!
Without a clear mind, no matter how many other principles are correct, they will not work.
Gaode was thinking as he took out his money bag, counted it in detail, and found his current cash balance: 12 gold, 2 silver and 5 copper.
"We have to make a decision as soon as possible."
The next day.
Gaode left the medicine garden with a package.
"Do you want to follow?"
"No, the superiors just told us to keep an eye on the medicine garden."
Seeing Gothe heading towards the city, the two people who were monitoring near the medicine garden glanced at him, then retracted their eyes and made no other action.
Although they were close to blatant surveillance, at least they had not gone too far to directly follow them, preserving the last bit of dignity.
Business district.
Pierre's Grocery Store.
Gothe brought the potions he had been hoarding for many days, and before he even stepped into 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."
Pierre is actually planning to close the grocery store and quit the grocery store after not being here for a week? !
Gaode was startled, and he quickly entered the store regardless of the purpose of his trip to "sell medicine."
Humbling to the naked eye, the shelves in the store are already quite empty.
"You want to leave?" As soon as Gothe entered the store, he saw Pierre drinking tea leisurely behind the counter, and asked straight to the point: "Going to Bremen?"
"Yes, I'm already looking for the next store. As soon as I find the next store, I will leave and go to Bremen to enjoy my old age." Pierre Niu took a sip of tea, 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.
"You didn't say that the murderer has already been killed." Gothe replied subconsciously, and then he suddenly realized, "Is that just a scapegoat?"
"Well, it's just a scapegoat. The strange case of missing people has been suppressed, not solved." Pierre nodded and gave an affirmative answer.
"There are still people missing in the city."
He paused, "Three days ago, a family who lived on the same street as me disappeared inexplicably. The situation was exactly the same as before. People were sleeping at home, and when they woke up the next day, they disappeared from home." > "Except for some strange slime, there is nothing left in the room."
"And the objects in the room are very neat, and it is definitely not a matter of seeking wealth or harm."
"I suspect that this matter is not man-made, but the work of a type of earth-line creature that has never appeared in the Bremen area before. That's why even the second-level mage has not been able to solve the matter."
"In the central area of the city, there are earth-line creatures lurking in the darkness and constantly committing murders. This is terrible."
After a moment of silence, Gao De spoke again.
"Is it because of this reason?"
"Not entirely, the main reason." Pierre sighed, and then said: "Didn't I go to Bremen City to arrange a retreat last month? In addition to this matter, I also checked some information through my friends in the Emerald Alliance."
"Under normal circumstances, there is an upper limit for the number of leyline creatures that gather according to different magic concentrations in each area."
"But during this period, the number of leyline creatures outside the city has exceeded the total number that should exist in this area."
"Do you know what this means?"
Before Gothe could answer, Pierre asked and answered: "This means that the frequent appearance of leyline creatures outside the city is not caused by simple gathering, but the emergence of leyline creatures from new sources."
"And leyline creatures will only come from the leylines."
Pierre finally said something that seemed inexplicable, but Gothe suddenly realized it, and his face suddenly changed, "What do you mean? Is the abnormality outside the city caused by the formation of new earth veins? "
He clearly remembered this sentence in the "Glass of Bremen" he bought:
“After the planes met, leylines appeared frequently, and the number increased day by day, and leyline creatures emerged. However, no new leylines were born in the Bremen area for two hundred years. King Geros XII once praised Bremen as a blessed place.”
The land of blessings will no longer be blessed?
"I'm not sure, but I think it's very likely."
"At least there is a high probability that a new species of leyline creatures has invaded Hogan City. Doesn't this coincide with my guess?"
"The formation of new leylines brings new leyline creatures." Gothe murmured, understanding what Pierre meant.
