Chapter 326: The inside story of the divine wine.
Orarie Daedalus was taken to the deepest part of the labyrinth. In the huge cave, the most conspicuous thing was a large altar in the center.

This is the underground safe house that Loki found in the original novel after Dionysus' plan to launch the Six Immortal Spirits Forbidden Spell Ring Poetry was exposed.

Of course, this cave was not blocked by Li De's men and used as a stronghold.

In fact, thirteen days ago, after Zeta led his men to scout the maze, they originally planned to use this place as a base.

But Li De did not agree. After all, Li De didn't know whether the god of wine would suddenly go crazy and come here.

Logically speaking, Dionysus should not have come to the depths of Daedalus Labyrinth before preparing the plan to blow up Orario.

But even Reed didn't know when Dionysus started planning this.

After all, his people will transport the fallen immortal's clone to this maze by then, and he will definitely arrive by then, just in case he suddenly feels like taking a look at his hiding place.

Therefore, Li De cannot choose this place as his base.

Fortunately, with Delta's ability, it is not difficult to expand a huge space under this layer to serve as a base.

Therefore, Li De’s current temporary base is deeper underground next to the underground city.

With the emergence of the teleportation magic circle, Reed and Claire returned to the study room of the base.

Zeta and Kalina are already waiting here at this moment.

"Tell me, what's the situation?" Li De asked the two people who came to report after sitting down.

"Please go first, Sister Zeta." Kalina said sensibly.

"Well, let me speak first. Master, according to Sunnis Rustra's memory, there is no such thing as a failure rate when Soma brews the divine wine." Zeta said.

"It won't fail? Where did you get the divine wine that time?" Claire, who was beside Reed, looked at Zeta in surprise and asked.

"Although the ingredients of inferior divine wine are mostly the same as those of divine wine, it is actually another kind of wine and has nothing to do with divine wine." Zeta shook his head.

"So Loki was deceived?" This time it was Li De's turn to be a little surprised. After all, he didn't expect Loki to be deceived.

"Master, Loki probably didn't understand it clearly. You have been in Loki's followers, and you know very well the value of a Cadmus Spring. The divine wine is made from the Cadmus Spring. Do you think that with the financial resources of Soma's followers, they can produce small batches of inferior divine wine? Even if they can, is it possible to sell it for only 6 faris a bottle?" Zeta shook his head.

"Now that you mention it, it is true." Li De nodded immediately.

After all, even if Dean Kate's followers took away a portion of Cadmus Spring, the other party would have to exchange it for 20 bottles of panacea with a minimum price of 50 faris per bottle.

In other words, a portion of Cadmus Spring is worth at least tens of millions of farthings.

The volume of a portion of Cadmus Spring is about 1 milliliters, which means one milliliter is at least faris.

Of course, this price is the shipping price of Loki's followers.

A small faction like the Soma Family, which has little financial resources, should not expect to place an order with a large family that can ship goods.

Therefore, Soma's followers should have obtained the Cadmus Spring by purchasing scattered second-hand goods at high prices from factions like Dean Kate's followers.

In this case, with the financial resources of Soma's followers, how much can they buy at a time? At most, a few dozen milliliters.

"In fact, Soma's followers can purchase 3 milliliters from Apollo's followers at a time, and the price is as high as faris per milliliter." Zeta immediately said this data.

"Tsk tsk, this guy is really being taken advantage of." Li De couldn't help but laugh after hearing that.

"Who said it wasn't! You should know that the rule among Sunnis Rustla's followers is that a small cup of divine wine costs 10 faris, and in this small cup of divine wine, there are only 5 drops of genuine divine wine." Zeta continued to add.

"5 drops, Sunnis Rustla and Sumo are too damn evil!" Li De was shocked after hearing this.

You should know that it takes 20-25 drops to make one milliliter of liquid. According to the one-to-one brewing ratio, the Cadmus Spring worth 3 faris was sold for at least 40 faris after being brewed into the divine wine by Soma.

"Captain, I know a little bit about this." Kalina also spoke at this moment.

"What's the inside story?" Claire asked curiously before Reed opened his mouth.

"Suma said that the brewed divine wine itself has no taste, so it must be blended with other wines. Five drops of genuine divine wine are needed in a 10 ml glass of wine, which can ensure both the taste and the effect of intoxicating the soul." Kalina replied immediately.

"In other words, this is the real purpose of the inferior divine wine." After listening to this, Li De immediately realized that the liquor used to blend the divine wine was the inferior divine wine.

"Yes, master, the inferior divine wine was originally used to blend the divine wine. This is where Loki misunderstood." Zeta nodded and replied.

"I see. Then it seems that to complete the order for five bottles of divine wine, we will need dozens of bottles of inferior divine wine?" Li De asked in surprise.

"To be precise, we need 500 bottles of 200 ml inferior divine wine!" Zeta added the data.

After hearing this, Li De didn't want to talk for a moment.

"Isn't the divine wine of another god of wine, Dionysus, also like this?" Li De looked at Zeta and continued to ask.

"I'm not sure about that, but the wine of the god of wine is bottled, so ten bottles should be ten bottles." Zeta shook her head. After all, in the memories of Dionysus's followers that she read, no one knew the brewing process of the god of wine.

"So how much finished divine wine is stored in the wine cellar?" Li De asked immediately.

"The production of Dionysus is also limited by the Cadmus Fountain. There are only two bottles in the storage cellar at present." Zeta answered without hesitation.

After all, she had already figured out the situation in the wine storage room during the past ten days when Dionysus was away.

As long as Li De gave the order, she could cooperate with Delta to steal the magical wine at any time.

"Is it the Cadmus Fountain again? The water gushing out of this spring is quite special. The panacea needs it, and the divine wine also needs it." Claire on the side couldn't help but sigh.

"That's normal. If it weren't a good thing, the powerful dragon Cadmus wouldn't be guarding the spring all the time." Reed was not surprised.

"Master, do you want to take action?" Zeta asked Li De.

"Let's do it when we find a suitable opportunity. But after taking the divine wine, remember to leave a sufficient amount of the Fountain of Cadmus for Dionysus. This will prevent him from having difficulty producing the divine wine in the future." Li De said after thinking about it.

"Yes, I understand." Zeta nodded and said.

"Lina, how is your current control over the internal affairs of the Soma Family?" After discussing with Zeta, Li Decai asked Kalina.

"It's okay. After all, they are just bullies. If they don't obey, just give them a few beatings." Kalina replied with a confident smile. "That's good. The next step is to increase the production of the divine wine as much as possible. Tell us what you need, and let others cooperate with you." Li De nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, Captain, I hope the supply of Cadmus Spring is not too large." Kalina thought for a moment and then said this.

"Lina, do you have any reason for saying this?" Before Reed could speak, Claire asked with a serious look.

"Sister Claire, Su Mo is a technical geek who likes to study winemaking. If you provide him with too much Cadmus Spring, he might focus on researching other kinds of wine." Kalina said helplessly.

"It's okay, Lina. You can communicate with him without worry. As long as he can guarantee the output of the divine wine, it's completely fine to give him some extra for research. Anyway, he has almost no social circle, so there's no need to worry about him spreading the news that Cadmus Spring has a large output.

But you have to pay attention to those villains among your followers. It is inevitable that some people with ulterior motives will be watching the abnormal situation of increased consumption of divine wine ingredients. "Li De reminded Kalina.

"I know, Captain!" Kalina certainly understood that the increase in raw material consumption but the lack of increase in output for sale would definitely arouse some people's suspicion.

"Okay, let's go!" Li De said to Kalina.

"Yes!" Kalina said and retreated with Zeta.

"Sid, do we really have to stay here for a while?" Claire asked Reed after Kalina and Zeta left.

After hearing this, Reed knew that Claire was asking him about the promise he had made to Finn before.

You know, Lv.8 is not something that can be cultivated easily.

"Sister, there is a reward for every effort. I believe that after Loki sees my sincerity, he will definitely tell me something more." Reed looked at Claire seriously and said.

"What if not?" Claire continued.

Of course, this is not Claire's way of expressing rebuttal. After all, as long as Reed has made the decision, she will definitely not object.

Claire was just deducing the possibilities based on what Reed said.

"It would be best if I have it, but I won't be disappointed if I don't. I'll just consider it as a reward for the favor I received in the first place. After all, you also know that the ability value panel is transformed from the favor given by Loki." Li De expressed his thoughts.

"It's okay as long as you aren't disappointed." Claire nodded. After all, she knew that Reed was mentally prepared to do it for free.

"Yeah!" Li De nodded.

While Reed and Claire were chatting, the members of Loki's family were engaged in a fierce battle.

Although the battle was fierce, everyone felt unprecedentedly happy.

As adventurers, members of Loki's family are bound to fight monsters whenever they enter a dungeon.

But precisely because of the constant fighting over time, they were completely unable to experience any other feelings except maintaining basic vigilance.

And this numbness is unavoidable for any adventurer.

However, after ten days of extreme depression caused by Spartan-style training, everyone was surprised to find that they actually felt pleasure when killing monsters.

This is also the reason why Li De wanted everyone to vent the accumulated anger in their hearts.

As for regaining confidence, in fact, it can be said another way, that is, to let the members of Loki's followers clearly feel the difference between fighting with monsters ten days ago and now.

And this difference was felt by everyone.

Especially Lefiya, who could only stand still and output damage before!
In the original novel, until two years later, Lefiya could only stand still when using magic, and was particularly susceptible to dangerous environments, which made it impossible for her to concentrate and use magic quickly.

But after ten days of special training by Hinata Hyuga, Lefiya is not panicked at all even though the Cannon Dragon on the 58th floor is only a few meters away from her and the breath in its mouth is ready to be fired.

Just because the death threat posed by Paolong to her was far less than that posed by Hyuga Hinata.

Even though Hinata Hyuga suppressed her strength to the same level as her during special training, and her every move didn't even have one tenth of the power of the Cannon Dragon's Breath, Lefiya could feel that there was a clear gap in the pressure brought by the two.

boom!
With an explosion, a column of scorching flames almost brushed past Lefiya's body and shot off into the distance.

Without even looking at the place behind her that was melted by the flame pillar, she dodged the artillery breath by turning sideways. Lefiya raised her hand calmly, and a ray of silver light shot into the eyes of the Pao Long.

That's right, the elf girl who was standing still and attacking didn't even use magic at this moment. She just mobilized her own magic power to control her mimicry into a spiky slime, and inserted it into the opponent's brain through the eye socket of the Cannon Dragon at lightning speed.

Then he controlled the slime to create a thorn bloom inside the opponent's brain.

The next second, the Cannon Dragon's body turned into ashes with a bang, leaving only a fist-sized magic stone.

And all these changes were learned by Lefiya from Hinata Hyuga.

How to control magic power, how to distribute magic power in battle, and how to save magic power in battle, these three points are Lefiya’s biggest gains in the past ten days.

As for techniques like parallel chanting, Hyuga Hinata didn't teach them at all.

Lefiya also asked Hyuga Hinata, and the answer she got was that it was useless.

Because in Hinata Hyuga's opinion, when Lefiya needs to use magic, it is often a large-scale positional battle.

For this kind of scene close to war, there is no need for so-called parallel chanting, just standing still will do.

As for normal times, the time for parallel chanting is enough for Lefiya to kill monsters many times.

That’s right, this is another gain that Lefiya got in ten days, killing efficiency!
In Alicia's words, after ten days of special training, she felt like she had transformed from a full-time magician into an assassin using magic.

In fact, whether it was her, Lefiya, or Riveria, after receiving ten days of special training and discovering that using mana was more efficient than magic, the first thing they thought of when they saw the monster was not chanting.

Instead, he subconsciously mobilized his magic power and poured it into the slime bracelet, and then his eyes unconsciously aimed at the monster's weak points.

For example, the brain, and the magic stone at the magic gathering point in the chest.

By the time I came to my senses, the monster had disappeared.

Only a magic stone on the ground proves that the monster did exist before.
