Bai Wei’s movents were so fast that even Vic hadn’t reacted before the serrated knife had cut deeply into the wooden door.
"What are you doing..."
Before he could finish speaking, Bai Wei promptly kicked the townsperson’s door down, then smiled at Vic.
"Preaching."
The door collapsed with a thud, and the townspeople behind the door no longer had their previous deanor, their murky eyes full of fright.
"You, you, you, what are you trying to do?!"
The townspeople pointed at Bai Wei’s nose, their body seed to tremble slightly from nervousness.
Bai Wei did not pay attention to him imdiately, but waited for the dust stirred up by the door’s collapse to disperse before leisurely stepping in.
Vic, who stood behind him, had no choice but to follow him inside.
He was now Bai Wei’s assistant, there was no reason to stop him.
But if Bai Wei really wanted to do sothing outrageous, he wouldn’t just stand by either.
Bai Wei entered and leisurely observed the furnishings inside.
This seed like a pharmacy; all he could see were bottles and jars of dicine.
The whole room seed to be lived in by only this male townsperson, but there was a tightly closed door inside, and when Bai Wei’s gaze landed on it, the townspeople’s tension increased.
"What exactly do you want?" The male townsperson shouted at Bai Wei, but compared to when the door was still there, he seed a bit scared but pretending to be fierce.
Bai Wei naturally knew what he was worried about, but didn’t expose them, just smiled at the male townsperson.
"Just ca to purchase so dicine."
"Purchase dicine?" the male townsperson said, "You just said you were here to preach!"
"Yes." Bai Wei nodded, "If you believed in our sect, would I still need to specifically purchase?"
The male townsperson’s expression turned very ugly: "Do you know what place this is? If you dare act recklessly... the Hunters will take care of you!"
"Oh?" Bai Wei’s smile didn’t fade, "Will the Hunters take care of , or the Wildfire believers take care of ?"
Upon hearing this, the male townsperson’s expression worsened.
Only Vic didn’t know what they were talking about, but he sensed sothing was amiss, so wisely stayed silent.
The male townsperson was silent for a while, then said: "What dicine do you want?"
"So wound tablets," Bai Wei said, "and... ’Blood Coagulation Potion’ that allows one to walk in the night."
Upon hearing "Blood Coagulation Potion," the male townsperson instinctively took a step back, he seed to want to say he didn’t have it, but looking at Bai Wei’s bright serrated knife, he couldn’t utter words of refusal.
After a while, he spoke: "There are, but not here, and they’re not cheap."
"No problem." Bai Wei sounded as though he knew the male townsperson would answer like this, smiling as he spoke, "I’ll wait right here, you go fetch... but you’d better not have any ideas, otherwise, I’ll burn down your house."
As he spoke, Bai Wei barely glanced at the inner room, causing the male townsperson not to dare make any further moves.
He only left the room quickly, with a dark expression.
Before leaving, Vic heard the male townsperson cursing softly, seemingly related to the Hunters.
So after the male townsperson left, Vic imdiately ca up: "Why are you doing this?"
Bai Wei glanced at Vic and calmly said: "If we want to go to the Sacrificial Arena, we need these dicines."
"Then can we just take them directly?" Vic said, "That’s not what a Hunter should do."
"I’m no Hunter," Bai Wei said, "I’m Rhein’s Priest, I have no principles."
Vic: "..."
"Just joking." Bai Wei laughed, then said, "If you buy dicine as a Hunter, will he sell it to you?"
Vic wanted to argue but mories flooded his mind at that mont.
It was the scene of an elderly Hunter knocking on doors late at night pleading.
And this scene naturally fell into Bai Wei’s eyes.
"He would, but definitely not easily, right?" Bai Wei said, "Like arbitrarily raising prices, like making unreasonable demands, imagine when you’re injured while hunting at night, and pleading for help from these tightly closed doors, only to be t with refusal and curses, similar to stay away from , don’t bring danger here... "
Vic opened his mouth but couldn’t speak.
Because this was exactly what he had in mind, Bai Wei described it so vividly, it was as if he read from his heart.
Of course, Vic wouldn’t think about mind-reading, he just asked: "How do you know so well?"
Of course it’s because I’ve experienced it too.
Bai Wei laughed in his mind.
This map in the ga was absolutely one of the darkest maps, countless monsters hunted during the night, not to ntion the townsfolk. When players got injured and wanted to buy dicine, they’d find the nightti prices ten tis higher.
And the seller was naturally that guy Bai Wei just chased away.
Karma indeed.
But Bai Wei wouldn’t tell Vic this, he just shrugged and said: "Don’t forget my identity, Rhein is the arch-enemy of the Wildfire, our understanding of your place is no less than your locals. And we don’t just understand the surface, the deep reasons are equally clear."
