531 give an explanation!
for the next half a month, zhao xu also got on the train back to his hotown. the two wheels were like the shadow of the setting sun as it dragged away from his hotown.
Before he left, he glanced at the last afterglow of the city and entered the carriage without looking back.
Sotis, one’s last look would happen inadvertently, and no one would know that it was the final farewell.
inside the train, zhao xu looked at the other students who were also on their way to school. other than the reluctance to leave ho at the start, everyone was also excited to be able to return to school and et a familiar classmate.
Throughout the whole process, he looked out of the window in silence, like a lonely passerby, passing the ti.
On the other hand, with the help of the shuttle of ti, the progress of the players in Arthur was getting faster and faster. The places they set foot in started to spread from the distance of a day’s round trip around the town to the depths of so mysterious caves, which were dangerous wastelands that ordinary people could not design.
Arthur’s magnificence and magnificence were slowly revealed to everyone as these adventurers who dared to venture across the mountains and rivers forged ahead.
The ” spring outing tour group “, which allowed casual players to pay, beca a popular business in Arthur.
anwhile, in Starfall town, after the demolition of the sealed off area was completed, the foundation of the Association’s base was also rebuilt.
Countless large heavy-duty vehicles were shuttling back and forth between the town gates and the sealed encampnt area.
The players and the townspeople were slowly getting used to the wizard Association being a part of their lives.
At this ti, the players were slowly coming into contact with the charm of “Wang Ningwei,” who had swept through the entire Mystra’s player circle.
Everyone did not know why, but it seed as if anyone could beco friends with her.
Even the higher-ups of the town who had been extrely wary of Zhao Xu had let down their guard a little because of Wang Ningwei, and the two sides started to get in touch.
The resistance Alliance, who had first moved into the town, had also started to get in touch with the weapon King Ningwei. This also saved Zhao Xu the trouble of using his previous account ” starry sky reflection ” on the forums to suppress him.
this also made zhao xu even more curious about what was so amazing about the leadership skill.
The construction music that ca along with the morning rooster’s crowing also beca another alarm clock that woke everyone up.
Because Zhao Xu and Wang Ningwei had requested for the construction to be done as soon as possible, countless craftsn had been summoned to this place. This place had beco another bustling location outside of the Kuangqu.
Many commoners rushed over and set up small stalls along the periphery.
As for Zhao Xu, he continued to maintain his mysterious aura and beca a sharp sword that could suppress the entire town.
Other than showing his face a few tis after his room, which had been reinforced by the day, exploded after a thief broke in, he spent most of his ti reading alone in a simple wooden Pagoda built at the last minute, while enjoying the peaceful scenery of the whole town.
Antonya’s movents were erratic, and she would appear and disappear from ti to ti, as if she was investigating sothing.
Every ti Zhao Xu saw her, she would always be in a hurry.
Sotis, after she gave Zhao Xu so pointers on so of her academic problems, Antonya would activate high-level teleportation or Otherworld teleportation to get to other places.
As for Zhao Xu, he continued to build up his power.
Apart from strengthening his knowledge and skills, he also slowly felt that the threshold of level 9 was not far away.
He was only waiting for an opportunity when he felt that everything was going well, and then he could directly read the fourth ” notebook.
Suddenly, Zhao Xu realized that he had already flipped to the last page of Arthur’s introduction to maps, and he could feel that his knowledge (geography) skill had beco more solid.
He then activated his invisibility spell and left the tower quietly.
the ‘eyes’ that were watching the scene did not notice anything.
After Zhao Xu had walked past several streets, he dispelled his invisibility spell in a shadowy corner and revealed his original body.
However, he had already put on a simple disguise. Passersby could barely tell that he was a spellcaster, but they couldn’t determine that he was zhongxia.
Zhao Xu pulled down the hood on his head so it could cover his forehead more. Then, he bent over and started to walk around the busy market.
co on, I just hunted this. It’s an extrely authentic dragon skin material. Adding it to the armor will greatly enhance the defense.
an ancient scroll excavated from the mysterious underground. Perhaps you are only one step away from becoming a noble mage.
two-handed giant sword, honest with the old and famous brand in the north of the city. It’s a refined weapon that has just been tempered. It’s limited to three. If you miss it, you won’t have the hehe.
“Adventurer’s set, sold in packs.”
A series of shouts could be heard from the end of the street all the way to the end of the street, and they ca one after another, making Zhao Xu rember so of the vague mories he had from before.
However, when he ca here, it was more to make these stalls pay taxes.
As for the current him, he could already obtain an incomparably heavy sum of money from taxes every month by relying on his Overlord’s authority.
Suddenly, Zhao Xu’s gaze swept across an old man’s stall and he noticed that there were many bottles and jars on the table. They looked like they were bottles of dicine.
His curiosity was piqued, and he quickly walked over.
Potions in Arthur ant that they were ‘valuable’.
When players wanted to enjoy the convenience of magic, they had to rely on magic items other than asking mages to help them cast spells.
Scrolls, rings, wondrous items, staffs, wands, scepters, weapons, armors, potions ... These represented the remaining channels to enjoy magic.
Scrolls had the highest usage requirents, while potions were the lowest, as long as one had a mouth to drink water.
Magic potions and Divine Oil were one-ti consumable items. They could replicate the effects of spells that took less than a minute to cast and did not exceed level three.
The potions that Arthur consud the most and had the most amount of were healing potions.
However, the ” Red dicine ” in traditional online gas was considered a rather expensive resource in Arthur.
Even high-end players would only consider drinking a healing potion in desperate tis to recover their health.
For example, the potion for minor injuries cost 50 gold coins.
As for the potions for healing serious injuries, it would cost 750 gold coins.
That was no longer drinking dicine, but drinking the concentrated liquid of pure gold.
...
So Zhao Xu was very curious about how this normal stall was actually selling potions.
But when he saw that even though he had washed them beforehand, they still couldn’t get rid of the dirt on the glass bottles, Zhao Xu knew that he had run into another group of grave robbers.
Clearly, these were all buried items that had been dug out.
“Are these potions still useful?” Zhao Xu couldn’t help but ask.
if it was a potion that had only been developed in recent years, then it went without saying that it would not lose its effect even after decades if it was properly preserved.
however, the potions that had been buried for hundreds of years or even thousands of years were unknown.
The old man with yellow teeth smiled slyly. it’s a small business. We’ll see what we can do. We won’t get a refund after we sell it.
“can i sll it?” Zhao Xu asked.
Even if he didn’t use any detection magic or wear his gear Warlock goggles, he could tell that so of the dozens of bottles here and there had extraordinary effects.
The old man grinned as if he had found his prey. He chuckled and said, ” “Of course you can, but you can’t taste it.”
In fact, the more secure way was to take a sip.
...
However, who knew what would happen if he took a sip of this dicine that had been buried underground for hundreds of years?
Zhao Xu, who was already very confident, just quietly observed the potion while he put on the Warlock gear goggles and pretended to use them to analyze the concentration and composition of the liquid.
After a long ti, Zhao Xu put down the light blue bottle of potion that he had been playing with for a long ti and started to touch the other pure red bottle.
after wasting a level 1 spell slot, he had already analyzed that the blue potion, or rather, the ” bull’s strength potion ” on the ” tag ” had lost its effect.
At best, it was just a bottle of ordinary blue water.
At this mont, Zhao Xu was carefully observing the light red potion in the glass bottle in front of him. It was sparkling and translucent under the sunlight.
It had the sa luster as the legendary healing potions.
Zhao Xu also used his identify spell to look around.
However, his expression imdiately changed slightly.
This was because the conclusion drawn by the spell was exactly the sa as the bull’s strength potion.
It was just an ineffective potion.
Zhao Xu couldn’t hold back his curiosity, so he opened the bottle and flicked it a little as if he wanted to feel what was inside.
Seeing this, the old man grinned, as if he was very satisfied.
Zhao Xu also started laughing.
Bitter apricot flavor.
It had the sa sll and color as the healing potion, but it had no effect at all.
Zhao Xu finally understood what was going on. He imdiately took out a copper coin from his pocket and looked as if he was about to scrape off the dirt from the mouth of the bottle.
However, the copper coin bounced up in the air and fell back into his palm.
Detect thoughts!
This 2nd-circle divination spell, which had the elent of affecting the mind, was cast with ease by Zhao Xu.
After three rounds and not even a single cup of hot tea had gone down, Zhao Xu was able to sense what the old man was thinking on the surface.
Sure enough.
He had actually encountered a group of scamrs who were deliberately selling fake potions.
If it had really lost its effect after a long ti, it should have disappeared along with the sll and color.
He didn’t know that the taste, color, and everything else were right, but the effect was gone.
If the adventurer really used this potion as his life-saving straw, he would really be tricked and bleed.
Zhao Xu’s face started to turn dark.
In his previous life, he had also dealt with a group that sold fake potions.
However, as soon as he arrested the whole gang, they received a protection certificate issued by so Big Shot and walked out of the prison.
at this mont, zhao xu quietly put down the potions in his hands and shook his head. ” these potions are all fake. they’re useless. ”
in an instant, the old man’s expression changed. he imdiately made a signal to the distance and said angrily, ” “Young man, it’s fine if you don’t want to buy it, but it’s not fair to slander like this.”
“We Northlanders will not be bullied and not dare to say anything.” As he spoke, the old man’s voice beca impassioned.
Suddenly, the custors and sellers of the surrounding stalls all looked over.
However, Zhao Xu’s expression was calm as he said, ” I believe that I’m definitely not the first person who has seen through your potions. However, those who knew the dicine before probably did not want to make trouble with you. Seeing that it was fake dicine, they put it down and left.”
“But I’m taking this seriously.” zhao xu laughed playfully.
Swallowing one’s anger and suffering in silence was never his style.
in an instant, two tall and strong n were standing behind zhao xu, and they looked like tigers eyeing their prey.
“What’s going on?”
At this ti, the two patroln who were in charge of the security of this Street ca over. One of them had grass in his mouth and looked bored.
The old man who sold the fake potions also took the opportunity to recount what had just happened,
After a while, the surrounding crowd also understood what was going on.
“It’s not easy to prove that it’s a potion.” The tall and thin leader of the patrol team said with a smile.
“This is simple. You can try it out after drinking a mouthful.” Zhao Xu said.
“What do you an?” The patrol mber turned to look at the old man.
However, the old man said righteously, ” “I’m selling potions that have been passed down from generation to generation. The glory of our family can not be tarnished by a foreigner like you. I agree with this, but I want the captain to appraise it. ”
“However, if everyone has to take a small sip of the appraisal potion in the future, I won’t be able to afford it no matter how many potions I have.”
Zhao Xu didn’t hold back either. as long as it’s real, I’ll buy every bottle here.
“Alright,” he said. The old man laughed, his eyes revealing a satisfied look.
he started to size up zhao xu’s outfit as if he was thinking about sothing.
At the sa ti, he handed over the bottle of blue potion that Zhao Xu had been looking at earlier. He also intentionally covered the label on the bottle at the sa ti.”My Lord, this is the potion he said was fake. In order to avoid your psychological suggestion, you should take a sip first.”
the patrol mber looked a little confused, but he still nodded. with the help of the old man, he took a sip.
Suddenly, the patrol mber’s expression changed, ” I feel like my body has beco a little stronger.
The old man, on the other hand, revealed a satisfied smile and imdiately released his palm from the mouth of the bottle.
On the label, it was clearly labeled ” bull’s strength “, which was exactly the sa as what the patrol team mber had said.
Suddenly, everyone in the audience started looking at Zhao Xu with unfriendly gazes.
In reality, as soon as the word ” outsider ” ca out, Zhao Xu realized the existence of ” scripts.
When the entire scene was played out in front of him, he could not help but shake his head and laugh.
“You said it yourself. If there’s a real bottle here, you’ll buy it.” The yellow-teethed old man grinned and said, ” the bottle in my hand is already worth 300 gold coins. This is the standard price.
Zhao Xu looked like a young man who couldn’t believe what he was seeing. He took the blue bottle from the man’s hand and carefully examined the contents of the potion.
Then, he gently ‘knocked’ the bottle and made it shake.
” young man, you must accept your loss. this is how we northlanders do things. ”
“That’s right. Even if I have to bear years of debt for this, I will not hesitate.”
“If you’re a coward, then don’t make such a big promise.”
Imdiately, the people around him looked at his actions and couldn’t help but mock him.
At this mont, Zhao Xu took out three tickets from his pocket and said, ” these are the tickets that the business goddess has accepted. Each of them is 100 gold coins, which is exactly the sa price as this bull’s strength potion. It’s worth 300 gold coins.
the old man imdiately took it with joy, and after touching it, he realized that it was a genuine ticket.
“but you just said that if there’s a real bottle here, you’ll buy it,” he continued.
However, Zhao Xu kept his smile on and said, ” don’t worry.
Then, he made a mysterious gesture and chanted a simple incantation.
this seed like an ordinary action that even a child could imitate after learning it, but it made everyone’s heart jump.
That was especially so when the last ray of light lit up in Zhao Xu’s palm and then went back into the potion.
I just cast a second-circle spell,’energy conversion potion.’ It can transform magic potions into explosive substances, which can be used as explosive long-range ammunition.
” the explosion range is three ters, and the damage is around 2-12 points. it’s enough to seriously injure the civilians affected. ”
As he spoke, Zhao Xu let go of the bottle and it fell to the ground without a sound.
“Bang!”
The bottle mouth shattered.
“Ah!” The audience who were just watching the show were all shocked and instinctively jumped back.
However, nothing happened.
At this mont, Zhao Xu was looking at the old man and the patrol team mbers with an amused expression.
when I saw this scene just now, I thought that I would be so helpless if I were really a foreigner.
however, Arthur is a world where only the strong have the right to change the scenario.
“I quite like this.”
“Now, it’s your turn to give an explanation.”
