Mystery: The Last Shepherd

Chapter 304 The Chief's Needs (Revised parts of the previous chapter)
“Of course, Miss Justice.”

Lu Ze and the Hanged Man exchanged a glance and nodded.

With the power of M and that sea, he can use the "spectator" pathway ability and does not need the props made by the "psychiatrist" characteristic. He originally planned to resell them, and it would be even better if he could sell them to a reliable person in the gray fog.

"That's great."

Audrey said happily.

She actually had another option: to directly purchase the psychiatrist's extraordinary trait. She was almost finished with the Sequence 8 "Mind Reader" potion and needed the ingredients for the next sequence. However, she had already made contact with the Psychological Alchemy Society, so obtaining the necessary materials wouldn't be a problem; it would just cost her a little money.

In comparison, this extraordinary property is more appealing when made into an object.

After all, I don't have any extraordinary items of my own yet.
She thought to herself happily.

Klein manipulated the [World] puppet, looked around, and spoke in a hoarse, gloomy voice, "Continue to help me find the characteristics of the Human Skin Shadow."

He lingered on Lu Ze for a moment.

Don't look at me. I can't help you until I get in touch with Sharon.

Lu Ze thought to himself.

"I'll keep an eye on it."

"Justice," Audrey said confidently. Now that she had joined the Psychological Alchemy Society, she had gained a new avenue for her.

"I'll give it a try."

"The Magician," Fors said cautiously.

In fact, she recently crossed paths with a man named Dorian Gray, a descendant of the Abrahamic family. This family, which controlled the apprenticeship path, was once one of the world's top families, but is now on the verge of extinction due to a strange curse.

Dorian Gray has high hopes for Fors and is trying to become her mentor in the extraordinary field. If the mentor-student relationship is established, Miss Salty will have a powerful backer in the future, becoming a "channel" for providing assistance.

"I can give it a try too."

[Sun] Derrick replied, "Well, I've been out of surveillance for a while now, and Elder Lovia hasn't bothered me."

That's because she's also wary of you.
Lu Ze thought to himself.

After a brief silence, Alger the Hanged Man spoke, "Help me find the potion recipe for 'Wind-Clad One'."

"I have."

Lu Ze immediately replied, "Both potions and extraordinary properties are available."

One of Mr. A's lambs is the Wind Chosen, and as for the potion recipe, he only needs to slightly psychic-read the lamb's soul to know it.

Above the gray fog, everyone was taken aback.

Another extraordinary feature of Sequence 6?
This feature wasn't among the features he mentioned he was selling!

No wonder he's a shepherd; he's managed to control so many resources!

"."

Alger, the Hanged Man, paused briefly before asking in a strange tone, "How much money do I need to get all of this?" He hadn't expected it to come so easily; he'd thought it would take a lot of effort. While this was good news, the bad news was that he probably didn't have enough cash prepared for it.

"A Sequence 6 potion recipe, with a market price below 2000 pounds, and its extraordinary properties include two main ingredients, each costing 1500 pounds, totaling 3000 pounds."

As Lu Ze spoke, he did the math, “The total is estimated to be less than 5000 pounds. But since we’re all under Mr. Fool’s watchful eye, I can give you a discount and make it 4500 pounds.”

"I understand, Mr. Temperance, thank you for your generosity."

Alger nodded, his heart burning with both excitement and anxiety. The "Temperance" decree had indeed given him a significant discount, saving him several hundred pounds, but he still had a shortfall of at least 1000 pounds. The feeling of being able to obtain what he desired so soon, yet being forced to wait due to the gold pound restriction, was truly unbearable.

We need to find a way to make money.
He thought to himself that he wished he could leave the gray fog right now and return to the real world to get things done.

After that, no one raised the need for a transaction during the Tarot session, and everyone naturally moved on to the third part, which was the free exchange session.

"Would it be convenient for us to chat for a bit?"

Lu Ze looked up at the tall figure beside him. "Okay."

[Sun] replied with a cautious attitude that seemed disproportionate to his physique.

"The 'Black Knight' potion formula now belongs to your chief, right?"

Strictly speaking, it's a public warehouse belonging to Silver City.

"These details are not important; the final decision rests with your chief."

Lu Ze interrupted abruptly, "I've heard you mention Silver City's contribution system before. Can I assume that as long as the contribution is valuable enough, I can exchange it for something from the warehouse?"

"Uh, about the same?"

[Sun] pondered for a moment and then replied.

At this point in their conversation, everyone on the gray fog understood the meaning of "moderation" and guessed what he would ask next.

"So what do you think we should offer to impress your chief and get the 'Black Knight' potion formula in return?"

As expected, Lu Ze's words did not surprise them.

"this."

[The Sun] Derrick was taken aback.

How to impress the chief?

The image of Colin Iliad, the chief of Silver City, involuntarily appeared in his mind. The stern old man was over a hundred years old, with gray hair and a tall stature. He was a Sequence 4 demigod of the Warrior Path and a Demon Hunter.

What does a chief executive officer need?

Derrick couldn't fathom the thoughts of that stern-faced chief, who always seemed to be working tirelessly for Silver City, silently shouldering everything.

"Sorry, I don't know either."

He answered honestly.

"Then just go and ask him directly."

Lu Ze said, "Consider it a favor."

"Ask the chief directly?"

Derrick was dumbfounded and almost didn't believe what Luzer said.

"correct."

Lu Ze said matter-of-factly, "Anyway, your chief already knows you have something special about you and will maintain a certain understanding with you. Just treat this as a normal transaction, act as my middleman, and ask about the price. Of course, I will pay you for it."

For the chief of Silver City, Derrick represents another possible hope for escape, and the chief should take his words seriously.

"Please allow me to think about it."

Derrick hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Give me an answer as soon as possible."

Lu Ze said.

That concludes their communication.

[Temperance] Sir is so proactive! It's obvious he's extremely eager to become a demigod.
Audrey thought to herself.

Then, she looked at Lu Ze and said, "I heard that Mr. A of the Aurora Club is still holding parties as always."

She was testing Lu Ze to confirm whether what she saw at the time was indeed "moderation".

　The previous chapter has been revised to include some plot points, removing Audrey's deduction that Luzer knew about and possessed Rosselwen.
