Lord of Rot

Chapter 170 Lucky Potion
Iron Stone City.

Li Qi put on the black robe he had prepared long ago, and hurried through the slums of Iron Stone City before arriving at an alley guarded by soldiers.

People in black robes who are not masked cannot enter.

Interesting.

"Take a stone and hit it casually, and the ones you hit should be nobles."

Aristocrats just have strange hobbies. They can obviously trade directly, but they like to buy things with their faces covered and enjoy the secret happiness.

After he walked into the crowd, he successfully blended into it.

The scale of the black market in Iron Stone City is larger than that in Lintawan. It is probably because of the blessing of the reputation of the "Holy Land".

Without Bode by his side, Li Qi wandered around alone, not in a hurry at all.

He stands in front of a slave stall.

Inside the cage is a male demihuman with the head of a crow.

The beak is tied with a rope.

The body is very strong.

But the courage seems to be very small.

"What breed is this?" Li Qi asked curiously.

"I don't know, I caught it by accident." The stall owner has a good temper. He probably knows that people who can come here to participate in the black market have some status. It's like a masked ball for nobles. He enjoys that feeling, not to offend others. of.

"Smart?"

"Not very smart, almost like a bird."

"tsk"

From Li Qi's point of view, it was a pity. If the guy in the cage had crow wings instead of a crow's head, and could fly, he could be an aerial scout, and the price would definitely be expensive.

He didn't ask the price, turned and left.

It's a pity that I didn't see the demi-human girl, and now I'm not short of money. If I can buy a cat-eared girl, it would be great to put it in the castle as a maid. I can't save the money that should be spent.

The only demi-human woman is a female demi-human with a pig's head and a fat body. She stands upright like a pig, which reminds Li Qi of the scene in "Spirited Away", and she feels psychologically uncomfortable watching it .

There is no sale of supernatural beings.

"It's useless, it's useless." Li Qi squatted in front of a stall. He strongly suspected that the stall owner had something to do with Kumber Akers of the 'Ruanfan Family', and they collected some messy things.

Li Qi paused suddenly.

He saw a metal plate armor glove with dense patterns on the surface, not a strange thing.

"Can I see it?" he asked, pointing to the plate glove.

"Can"

Stall owners are more than happy to share their collections.

Li Qi picked up the glove, which was unexpectedly light, and tapped it lightly. The sound was definitely metal.

"What material is this?"

"Mithril."

"Mithril?" Li Qi was surprised.

In The Lord of the Rings, Bilbo Baggins has a mithril undershirt, which is said to be as strong as dragon scales and as light as feathers.

The Mithril recorded in Lurea Continent is similar to that. It is stronger than steel, but far lighter than steel. It is still a very precious alchemy and magic material. It is said that adding Mithril to weapons can become a peerless magic weapon.

"It's Mithril," the other party was very sure.

Li Qi flipped the gloves over, his cheeks twitching slightly.

Although he didn't often wear armor to fight, he also knew that some armors were decorated with steel spikes on the surface, and some crazy warriors would arm themselves in this way.

However, he had never seen a glove stuffed with nails.

He couldn't even think of how to wear it.

Putting your hands in it is no different than sending it into a meat grinder.

"It's just like this." The other party's voice sounded a little lacking in confidence: "It has the magical power of magic, it should."

"Do you have a full set?" Li Qi asked.

"No, just this one."

Not only is it unsuitable, but if you want to wear it for war, you have to pierce yourself full of holes first.

Don't say it's Mithril, even if it's made by Dragon Scale, Li Qi doesn't want it.

Once Mithril is cast, it is difficult to re-melt it, and it is not impossible to buy it, but it is expensive, so there is no need to die with this thing.

"how much is it?"

"30 golden days."

Li Qi quickly put down his gloves, afraid that the other party's words would count as money.

There was no hesitation in getting up and leaving.

It is also very uncomfortable to have money in your pocket but not spend it.

Soon Li Qi found the hunter's booth according to the clues given by Ma Wei.

"What to buy?" It was a woman who heard the voice.

Li Qi was very curious whether the other party's hair was silver.

"It was recommended by a friend," he said, "I want to buy some potion seeds and plant them myself."

"I happen to have some of the seeds on me."

The other party took out several small bags and placed them in front of Li Qi.

The bag was opened, and Li Qi took a few glances inside. The seeds were nothing special, they just couldn't understand them at all.

He asked, "What kind of ghost finger grass is it?"

"You want ghost finger grass?" The other party didn't expect it.

Li Qi nodded: "If not, placenta, red dragon tongue, wife orchid, and armor grass are all fine."

He repeated what Mavie said at the time that it was difficult to plant potions.

"..."

The other party paused for a long time: "I only have ghost finger grass, and I don't have the rest."

"Only ghost finger grass is fine, what kind?" Li Qi looked at the other party's bag.

But the huntress said: "Devil finger grass will produce highly poisonous mist when planted, and this plant is very dependent on human care, otherwise it will wither. It is also called life-killing potion, are you sure?"

She thought that some noble young man had heard about ghost finger grass from somewhere, so she came to buy some on a whim.

Judging from Li Qi's tone, he knew that he didn't understand potion planting at all.

"yes"

The ghost finger grass potion will fall into a poisoned state after taking it.

Arrow the Viper needs this potion.

Li Qi doesn't need poison, he has Aina around, it's too easy to want deadly poison, and planting potion is just an experiment on his whim, let's try planting it.

"This bag..." The other party didn't force it, and handed a bag about half the size of a fist to Li Qi: "If you can grow the ghost finger grass potion, I can buy it."

"How should I contact you?"

Acquisition is not important, but if you can get to know a skilled person who makes potions, it will be different!
"In December, I should still be near Iron Rock City. You can go to the slums to find a boy named Fanon Jin, and he will bring you to see me."

"I remember"

He asked the other party some precautions about the planting of ghost finger grass, especially to determine whether sunlight is needed. If sunlight is needed, he can only set aside a piece of land in the porcupine collar for planting. Fortunately, this weird potion It does not need sunlight, and a dark environment is more suitable for its growth.

"how much is it?"

"1 golden days."

Is this a big butcher?

I have to plant with my life, and the price of seeds is still so expensive.

However, Li Qi paid the money obediently, thinking in his heart that when he finished his work, he would go directly to that boy named Fanonjin and lead him to find the huntress.

"What kind of potion is this?" Li Qi noticed that she was selling potion, which was packed in a small glass bottle as thick as a thumb.

There are six kinds in total.

After receiving the money for the "Hunter Potion", the hunter's attitude improved a lot: "After drinking it for a period of time, it will improve your concentration, and your eyes and ears will be more sensitive. The price is 3 gold days."

"Strongman potion, after taking it, the body will become stronger for a period of time, but it will lose a certain amount of sanity, and the price is 2 gold days."

"Lucky potion, this is a magical potion I researched based on ancient books. Good things will happen within a period of time after taking it. The price is 10 gold days."

"Ahem!" Li Qi was taken aback.

There was still 1 gold day in the front, 2 gold days were fine, and suddenly a bottle of 10 gold days.

Selling potions so much money?
"Stone skin potion, after drinking it, a layer of stone skin will appear on the skin, and the price is 5 gold days."

"Scud potion, you can run faster after drinking it, and the price is 4 gold days."

"Psychic potion, which can restore mental power, costs 3 gold days."

Li Qi found that he was interested in every kind of potion. Although the strongman potion may turn into a fool after drinking it, it also depends on the target. If it is used directly on a brainless corpse, will it be stronger?
But whether the potion will work on dead bodies is also a question.

The soul potion is obviously the "blue bottle", and the consumption of spiritual power is also a big problem, but the price of 3 gold days is really outrageous, and he is not sure how much spiritual power this potion can restore.

He has mastered the stone skin by himself, but he really wants to buy a bottle to try which is stronger, the effect or his own magic.

"If I want them all," Li Qi said, "Can it be cheaper?"

He just suddenly had an urge to buy, maybe because he suddenly saw a system of potions and felt curious, or maybe he just had money and didn't spend it, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

The huntress suddenly raised her head, and the mask covered her face, but Li Qi was sure that the other party must be excited by his big hand.

The local tyrants and rich brothers are dazzling existences everywhere.

"It can be cheaper for you by 1 gold day!"

Li Qi finally met a guy who was more greedy than himself.

Buying so many potions is only 1 gold day cheaper?

He took out the money decisively, and said, "I hope your potion is really effective, otherwise..."

Otherwise, Li Qi wouldn't mind having an extra hunter among the ghouls.

It is said that hunters are extraordinary.

"Don't worry," the huntress said, "It will definitely work."

Li Qi put the potion in a bag and hung it on his waist, then took out the bottle of lucky potion, unplugged it, lifted the mask, and poured it directly into his mouth.

"...you..." The huntress didn't know what to say, but she used it here?
"Testing whether the lucky potion is useful or not," Li Qi said, "Just drink it right now. If it doesn't work, we can talk about the after-sales service directly, so as not to quarrel."

He asked, "How long does it take for this potion to take effect?"

There is no special feeling when the Lucky Potion enters the stomach, and it even tastes a little sweet and sour. If it is not for a small bottle, it will cost 10 gold days. Li Qi really wants to include this potion in his daily drinks.

"It could be the next moment, or it could be tonight." The huntress said, "The lucky potion will make it more likely that good things will happen to you, and reduce the possibility of bad things happening to you. A lucky potion must be lucky."

"..."

Li Qi felt that he had been fooled: "Then how do you prove that this medicine is effective?"

The huntress replied: "I just drank a bottle before I came to the black market."

So did you meet me, a fat sheep who doesn't blink when buying things?

Very convincing and suddenly irrefutable.

After leaving the hunter's booth, Li Qi wandered around the black market several times, but the god of luck never came to him, so he had no choice but to leave the black market.

At least I have bought what I want to buy.

Li Qi, who had just found a place to take off his mask and black robe, suddenly saw a figure.

"Now I believe in lucky potions, how lucky I am!"

Unexpectedly, the caster who came to Longship Fort also came to the black market, and he seemed to be alone!
