Arad's Sword

Chapter 446 Senior Alchemist

Soon, a list that Zoter, who had been dealing with rare materials all day long, looked a little weak, was sent to Kanis.

Ten potion ingredients equivalent to volcano potion.

This was the agreement between Midi and Kanis for the bet.

However, there is clearly much to be done.

After all, the materials used in potions equivalent to volcano potions may not necessarily be equivalent to lava flowers, salamander hearts, and magic smoke.

Since he won, of course Midi unceremoniously chose the one with the highest value.

Of course, among them, he also concealed many materials used to improve his level and cultivation, mainly various materials related to the Essence of Darkness and Dragon's Breath.

But whether it is superficial or hidden, a common feature is "expensive".

Expensive enough to make a core family member feel that his heart is bleeding.

"Now, you and Kanis are deadly enemies." Looking at the back of the other party leaving angrily, Hawke and Midi said this, and sighed slightly.

In the final analysis, it was Hawk, the chief of martial arts, who escalated the initial conflict.

But now, it was Midi himself who had to bear Kanis' anger.

But Midi just smiled slightly: "What should come will always come, and it's useless to avoid it. Mr. Hawke invited me to enter the Scorpion of Death, and opened a door to a new world in front of me. This kindness is far more than that." This little thing is so much more important.”

"Thank you, Midi." Hawke said gratefully, and patted Midi's shoulder vigorously.

Now, Midi has shown his strong strength in alchemy. Even if the two sides have no friendship, Hawke will definitely have a good relationship with Midi. Trading is more to the taste of this martial artist.

Of course, this also made Midi feel more relaxed.

In this huge and ruthless giant family, it is much better to have such a caring ally who appreciates him from the very beginning than to be alone.

The warmth between the two made Master Zuo Te jealous, while the forgotten High Priest of the Black Dragon pouted dissatisfiedly.

"Hey...Mr. Midi, you can't forget me!" Verna grabbed his arm, and then her curvy body stuck to it, and at the same time, she directly squeezed the martial arts master out.

"Master Verna, what are you doing?" Midi could only smile wryly.

For dark elf women, especially black dragon priests, his biggest feeling so far is that they are "unpredictable". Even Galantis, who has always been inclined to himself, is quite terrifying when he is willful.

Therefore, Midi's strategy has always been to stay at a respectful distance, never to provoke, and to pretend to be stupid when provoked.

But now that the other party is obviously the high priest of the black dragon, but he directly posted it like this, how can he pretend?
Midi tried to turn her eyes to Hawke and Zoot for help, but at this moment, the two of them looked away without principle.

"I have worked very, very hard to be a witness here, Midi, how can you just leave me behind and throw it away after you use it up? Isn't this too ruthless? Or are the human men on the surface so cruel? existence?" Verna looked at Midi with tears in her eyes and said in a sad tone.

"How could it be!" Midi immediately denied, and then quickly replied, "I will naturally remember the help High Priest Verna provided just now. If there is anything that needs my help, I will naturally go all out."

As soon as these words were uttered, the corners of Hawke's and Zot's eyes twitched violently.

And Midi, who seldom regretted it, immediately regretted it too.

Isn't this woman waiting for her own words?

In normal times, Midi can still play around, but who is Midi now?

An alchemist, and a high-level alchemist approved by the Death Scorpion!
Isn't it clear what the other party will ask a master alchemist to do?
Sure enough, as soon as Midi's voice fell, Verna, who was still teary-eyed, immediately burst into a smile, changed her face faster than turning the pages of a book, and replied: "Since Mr. Midi is so caring, then I will not be polite. How about a refined dragon's breath potion to make up for my fragile heart?"

How many copies?

Still need to refine?
At the beginning, what Midi refined for Galantis with gratitude was only one dragon's breath potion, which was still ordinary.

Now Verna actually opened her mouth to ask for some refined dragon's breath potions, what kind of appetite is this?
Why not grab it at all?
Midi really wanted to answer this directly, but in the end, looking at that awe-inspiringly beautiful face, he swallowed the words back.

"At most one copy, this is already at the limit of my ability." After thinking about it in her heart, Midi sighed deeply and finally made a compromise.

"Master Midi possesses the fire of dragon's breath. It shouldn't be difficult to refine this potion of dragon's breath, right? How about five copies?" Verna bargained.

Meddy began to feel a headache.

This kind of bargaining is not what he is good at, and it is even more troublesome to bargain with a strong woman, not to mention that the other party is relying on his status intentionally or unintentionally.

In the end, the two finally reached a compromise, a refined dragon's breath potion and two ordinary dragon's breath potions, as Verna's reward for acting as a notary.

"Master Midi, don't take this too seriously." Seeing the graceful posture of Verna leaving slowly, Master Zot patted her on the shoulder and said sympathetically, "At least, the bet you won should be There is still a lot left. Being blackmailed by that woman is a matter of course, even the elders of the Death Scorpion can't escape, let alone you and me?"

"Think of it as spending money to eliminate disasters." Midi nodded.

However, in his pair of star-black eyes, there was a different kind of expression shining.

Verna is indeed blackmailing, and Midi has indeed suffered a big loss.

However, this big loss is not for nothing.

After all, since Verna can appreciate the potion made by Midi, it means that a relationship of interests has actually been established between the two parties.

For Midi, who has just arrived and is alone, this connection can also be regarded as a small umbrella.

Coupled with Hawke's friendship and Zot's appreciation, it can be said that Midi has really gained a foothold in the Death Scorpion.

Therefore, the three dragon's breath potions, in fact, will not suffer at all from the perspective of long-term layout.

If Verna has tasted the sweetness and continues to "blackmail" Midi, and then develop a habit, then the interest relationship between the two parties will become stronger and become a habitual supply and demand relationship.

At that time, Midi can even propose an offensive and defensive alliance.

This is exactly what he needs most.

Except for Midi's own use of potions, it doesn't make much sense to have more of them. They are originally used for exchange.

If it can be exchanged for the promise of a black dragon high priest, that is enough.

After all, the most important thing for Meddy right now is not to gain any status, let alone how many precious potions, but to get a recommendation from a Menzoberranzanian fighter!
Alchemy is the key to obtaining this spot, and the branch of pharmacy in alchemy is just the beginning.

After entering this alchemy studio, what really needs to be paved and famous is still to come.

There must be a race against time to catch up with this trip.

Kanis left angrily, and Verna left satisfied.

After a long talk, Hawk also left the alchemy workshop with a smile on his face.

But Midi himself stayed directly.

This is also the only uninvited guest in the Death Scorpion family who was directly awarded the position of senior alchemist when he came to the alchemy studio for the first time in hundreds of years.

Since Master Zot had already made up his mind to sell favors to Midi, he naturally had to do it thoroughly.

Along the way, he acted as a guide himself and introduced the situation to Midi.

Senior alchemist, in the Death Scorpion family, this is a position that has great power, but at the same time bears the same heavy responsibility.

Generally speaking, the position of senior alchemist is at least filled by a certified master alchemist.

Although Midi's alchemy can be said to be trained by the eighth apostle Lotes, and has not yet been recognized by the outside world, but the fire core potion itself is the best proof, and it is not a problem.

However, just knowing how to refine a potion, even a super potion, is not enough.

Assuming an important position in the Death Scorpion's alchemy workshop meant that an unimaginable amount of resources would be handled by outsiders every day.

No matter if it is a rare material or a precious potion, as long as Midi says a word, it will be automatically sent to his personal alchemy laboratory, and he can refine whatever he wants.

He is qualified to read even those special formulas that would never be shown to others.

It can be said that the entire treasury of the Death Scorpion has become Midi's backing at this moment.

As long as it doesn't exceed the "quota" that was already quite generous, Midi can extract any material he wants, even materials that are not in the warehouse of the Death Scorpion, and he has the right to issue orders in the name of the family to make purchases.

It is not a problem at all to refine some potions full of the essence of darkness.

From then on, Midi can drink this rarely seen potion as water, as long as he is willing to refine it.

No one can refuse this kind of direct control over resources.

Of course, corresponding to it is a huge responsibility.

Each high-level alchemist must supply the specified type and quantity of medicines according to the family's requirements every week, and they cannot refuse.

In addition, the materials for refining these potions will also be included in the "quota" of the high-level alchemist himself.

In other words, this can be said to be a long-term contracted transaction.

The "quota" is the reward offered by the Death Scorpion, and whether or not the amount and type of potions specified by the Death Scorpion can be refined within this "quota" is the work that needs to be completed.

Only by doing this can you be qualified to be a high-level alchemist, and if you can't do this for three consecutive weeks, then your price will drop immediately, and then you will become an ordinary alchemist with no power at all.

This is the basic rule of the Death Scorpion, and even the entire Underdark region.

Like ordinary professionals, alchemists also have to fight hard on their own battlefield.

Although it does not involve life or death, it does affect their most relevant identity, status and resources.
