How Level Zero Devil Destroys Player Experience

"Brother, click me, click me."

"How many do you want? I have ten sets."

The two people who were left behind had not expected this situation. The female archer had an uncertain look on her face and she simply packed up her things and turned to leave.

"This idiot!"

When Lost Sunny Day reacted, she couldn't help but curse in her heart and followed the female shooter away. She could already imagine how much attention this guy's actions would attract.

In fact, this is true. It is already a bit strange that many people are suddenly buying large quantities of bat materials that were originally ignored. Now there is a situation where people are willing to raise the purchase price in order to snatch resources from their peers.

This caused many players to secretly become suspicious, thinking that these bat materials might have other uses.

However, these were not within the warrior's consideration, or he had no idea what was going on. The only thing he was worried about was how to go back and explain to the people in the guild.

"You little brat, you only got me 10 silver coins to get back such a small amount of bat venom sacs? How can you not even do such a small thing!"

Inside the rental room of the Pharmacists Association, Bu Hua was scolding Bozi Soda harshly. He didn't expect that such a simple task would turn out like this for this guy.

Bozi Soda shrank his head and explained helplessly, "Boss, you can't blame me. I don't know why it seems that people everywhere are buying this kind of stuff, and some people are buying it at a price much higher than the market price. If I didn't raise the price, I wouldn't be able to bring back so many."

"Is there such a thing?"

He was stunned for a moment. Although this little brother was usually a little unreliable, he knew that this guy would definitely not fool him about this matter. "Logically speaking, no one should buy such rubbish as bat venom sacs."

"I don't know either. Maybe those people are the same as you, boss?" Bozi Soda guessed.

Bu Hua frowned, "Impossible, I got this recipe from an NPC through a hidden quest. Not to mention its uniqueness, not so many people would know it."

"What else could it be? Could it be a hidden mission?"

Bozi Soda muttered, and was immediately met with contemptuous looks.

"Are you an idiot? It's said to be a hidden quest, how could so many people know about it?" Bu Hua waved his hand, "Okay, okay, buy some equipment and level up. I'll let you know if there's anything else."

After Bozi Soda left, Bu Huo refined all the purchased bat venom sacs into anesthetic potion according to the formula. Although it was not very toxic, its paralyzing effect was still very useful for novice players.

It was thanks to this recipe that he became the most influential pharmacist recruited by Star Myth, occupying most of the resources allocated by the guild.

However, this situation has shown signs of changing in the past few days, especially when it was learned that two other pharmacists in the guild had obtained rare formulas.

His own position was in danger of being threatened.

"I need to upgrade my pharmacy skills to the apprentice level as soon as possible, but it will probably take more than a month."

Looking at the skill level in the secondary occupation column, his proficiency was only one-third of the entry level, and he couldn't help but frown. You know, this is the level he could only achieve when he got most of the guild's resources. If it were other pharmacists, they would probably only be able to reach half of his proficiency.

"It would be great if there were hidden tasks to upgrade the secondary occupation level." Thinking of the discussion with Bozi Soda just now, Buhua couldn't help but sigh, and then he burst out laughing at his own idea.

How could there be such a hidden mission, and I just happened to run into it?

But he stopped laughing because he suddenly remembered something.

After pondering for a moment, he walked out of the rental office without saying a word, went to the mailbox of the Pharmacists Association, and took out a piece of mail from yesterday.

"Olwyn Empire, Faens Capital, Red Agate Street. After completing the mission, you can be directly promoted to the proficiency of a pharmacy apprentice."

Without saying anything, he circled the key points. If it were him before, he would probably just treat it as some boring prank.

After all, it is impossible for a loli to fall from the sky. Even if it happens, it would be a 45-type steel plate that breaks your nose.

In fact, he had this idea from the beginning, until he recalled the NPC mentioned in the email and had a clear impression of him.

"This person is mentioned in the task description for the recipe of the anaesthetic drug. Her job title seems to be... Senior Pharmacist."

As a pharmacist, he certainly knew what this title meant. Any senior title or above could be taught to improve the player's secondary occupation level.

In this way, it is not impossible to be promoted directly to a pharmacy apprentice.

He reacted immediately, walked out of the Pharmacists Association without looking back, and rushed to the place mentioned in the email.

Although he didn't know the purpose of the sender of this email, he didn't want to miss any possibility of being promoted to a pharmacy apprentice, and this possibility already had some credibility.

……

Emmm, are the recent chapters too bland, or am I switching perspectives too frequently? I feel like you guys don’t have any reaction (lying)

Chapter 36: Tris's Introduction to Pharmacy

"Is this right here?"

Looking at the magnificent workshop in front of him, he nodded without saying a word, thinking that this was worthy of the status of a senior pharmacist.

As soon as he stepped into the workshop, a pharmacy apprentice came forward to ask questions. After explaining his purpose, he was taken to the reception room on the second floor, where he met the target person of his trip.

"What's the matter? I haven't gotten enough sleep yet..."

Tris, who hadn't rested for long since returning from Herontis, was yawning and complaining.

However, for Bu Hua, he suddenly felt that it was very likely that a loli would fall from the sky, just like he had no idea that the senior pharmacist he was going to meet was the cute little loli in front of him.

Although he was touched by the other person's yawning and sleepy look, he still reacted immediately.

"Hello, is this Miss Trish?"

"Adventurer, what can I do for you?" Tris looked at the other person. It was obvious from her unpleasant tone that it was because her rest was disturbed.

"I heard that you have a mission to teach pharmacy here. To be honest, that's why I came here."

"Hey, you mean that... that... that... although I am planning to do this..."

For some reason, I suddenly noticed that the other person's expression seemed to become a little unnatural.

In fact, it was true. At this moment, Tris's eyes were wandering like a child who had done something wrong. "Well... it's better for you not to accept this mission."

He was stunned for a moment. He had never seen a situation where an NPC advised players not to accept a quest. Logically speaking, shouldn't the NPC's judgment logic be that the player's conditions did not meet the criteria for accepting the quest?

But he didn't think much about it. He just thought that the other party's task was a bit difficult. "Please, Miss Tris, no matter how difficult the task is, I will try my best to complete it."

"Why don't you just forget it, adventurer? I think it's a bit unkind to you." Tris had said it tactfully enough. She felt her conscience was tormenting her, but she couldn't explain it. After all, she couldn't betray the Demon King's will no matter what.

However, Cui Si's attitude was a test to Bu Hua, which made him more determined. "No, I won't give up. Please rest assured and leave the task to me."

"…You really don't regret it?"

"No regrets!"

"Well, don't blame me if anything happens next time." Tris sighed and added in a low voice, "Stupid, I've already reminded you."

However, Bu Hua didn't hear the rest of the sentence because his attention was completely drawn to the system message in front of him.

System: Do you accept the mission [Tracey's Introduction to Pharmacy]?

Yes.

Without thinking, I accepted it.

After receiving the target mission, he left the alchemy workshop and quickly contacted the logistics manager of Starry Sky Mythology to briefly explain the hidden mission he had received in pharmacy.

He believed that the bigwigs would make their own judgments.

In fact, it was just as Buhua had expected. Although the top management of Starry Sky Mythology was a little surprised, after a brief internal consultation, they reached a consensus and sent guild members to purchase the mission items requested by Buhua.

Although some of the materials and props in this hidden mission are relatively rare at the current stage of the game, it is still not difficult to collect them all in no time given the financial resources of the large guild.

In less than half a day, he met the thief sent by Starry Sky Myth to take over in the rental room.

"Congratulations, Brother Buhua. After completing this task, you will be the chief pharmacist of our Starry Sky Myth." The thief named Tropical Fish flattered Buhua as soon as they met.

"No, no, I'm just lucky. Have you brought the things here?" He waved his hand to confirm.

"It's all here." Tropical Fish initiated the transaction and asked curiously, "By the way, what kind of task can directly lead to an apprentice-level pharmacist?"

"I just met a senior pharmacist NPC, and she happened to have the task of teaching pharmacy."

"So amazing, where did you meet him?"

Bu Hua immediately became alert, "I met him while wandering around in the alleys of Fawns, how could I remember it so clearly."

"Is that so? Then you are really lucky." Seeing that he couldn't get any more information out of him, Tropical Fish gave up and pretended to be indifferent. "I have brought the things. I have something else to do so I will leave first. If you need anything in the future, just let me know. I won't talk to you, big brother."

"Thank you for the hard work. I will."

He exchanged a few polite words, but after the other party left, his expression suddenly turned cold. "It seems those guys have also received the news."

However, this was also within his expectations. After all, the relationships within the big guild were complicated, and something as big as promotion to an apprentice-level pharmacist would inevitably cause some rumors even in such a short period of time.

And this was also what he had originally planned. Real strength is the key, but reputation is also necessary. Only then will his position as the chief pharmacist in Star Myth be more solid.

"Oh, you guys think you can take away the food? You're just dreaming."

It was a simple idea. As long as he cut off access to the information about this mission, others would have no chance to compete with him.

But he never considered the source of the hidden mission information and what the mysterious sender was thinking.

After coming out of the Pharmacists Guild, Tropical Fish reported to his superiors in the guild and then walked around the streets.

I estimated the time and returned to the association again, but I didn't return to the original place, but went to another rental room.

Seeing the tropical fish pushing the door open, Dadi Fengmang in the rental room immediately came over.

"Did he say how he got the mission?"

"I didn't get any information out of him. He was very alert, but he probably knew some of the situation."

"What did you say?" Dadi Fengmang asked impatiently. After all, this was related to his future status as one of the few pharmacists trained by Starry Sky Mythology.

Tropical Fish casually took a bag of water from the side and drank it, even though it was intended to be used as a material for making potions. "I received this task from a senior pharmacist. Although the location was a lie, it should be an alley in Fawns. The only thing I can think of that can be connected to these two points is the alchemy workshop. You can try your luck there."

"You make it sound simple." Dadi Fengmang couldn't help but sigh after hearing this. "How big is the capital of the Orwen Empire? How many alleys are there? How many alchemy workshops are there? Do you want me to turn Faens upside down?"

"That's none of my business." Tropical Fish shrugged. After all, he was only responsible for providing information.

Dadi Fengmang suddenly felt helpless and sat aside sighing for a long time.

Suddenly he thought of something.

"Wait, you said the other party is a senior pharmacist?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

Dadi Fengmang did not answer, but closed his eyes, as if he was recalling something. "Yesterday, I was looking at the Pharmacist Association to see if there were any suitable tasks to take. I happened to see a little girl nearby who took a task to deliver materials."

"You're a lolita control." Tropical Fish looked at her with contempt, "Does she look cute?"

"Of course, she's wearing cat ears, so cute... Bah, now's not the time to talk about that!"

Dadi Fengmang hesitated for a moment and said, "Since almost no one takes this kind of mission, I took a quick look..."

"Admit it, you lolita control bastard just covet my body." Tropical Fish sighed regretfully, "Did you get any friends?"

"Get lost!" Dadi Fengmang said unhappily. However, perhaps because of the other party's disturbance, his memory seemed to be a little clearer. "I remember that the mission target seemed to be called... Cuisi!"

"So is this related?"

"If I hadn't received that email this morning, there would have been no contact."

"Email, what are you talking about?"

The tropical fish became even more confused.

Having already guessed the other party's reaction, Dadi Fengmang pushed open the door of the rental room and walked towards the mailbox, "Just follow me."

……

It’s not short, it’s not short, this is a normal size. If it’s too long, I’m afraid you can’t bear it.

Chapter 37: I am the mastermind behind this

As a large guild in the Orwin Empire, Star Mythology naturally had many spies inside. Therefore, when the news that two pharmacists were promoted to the apprentice level suddenly spread, several large guilds were in an uproar.

Starry Sky Mythology had no intention of hiding anything, and took this opportunity to publicize it not only in the game, but also in the entire Orwen section of the forum.

This greatly improved the reputation of Star Myth, which had been tepid before. For a time, it was directly surpassed by several large guilds such as Storm and Empire Epic. This momentum created a downward trend, which directly increased the number of people eager to join the guild by more than double.

Many people were discussing how lucky Starry Sky Myth was, and after hearing the news, some people, in addition to being surprised, all remembered one thing.

What was also surprisingly consistent was that these people were all secondary-professional players specializing in pharmacy. What was even more surprising was that they were all members of some large guilds.

……

Yuanye Eleven: That’s it in a nutshell. Now, apart from the two apprentice-level guilds that first appeared in Star Mythology, people from several large guilds such as Empire Epic, Stormwind, and Valhalla have begun to be promoted.

Yuanye Eleven: By the way, it seems that there are some apprentice-level pharmacists in the Constanta Empire. Right now, we in Rose Heart don’t have any news. The president and the others have been discussing it since yesterday but there is no result.
