This isn't a souls-like game at all.

"It's okay to bring the army to search the house."

Ye Yiyi was amazed.

"Don't underestimate those troops. According to the Son of Cyber, they are super knights equipped with guns and reinforced armor. Ordinary heavily armored knights wouldn't be able to withstand a single shot from them!"

"Gun~"

Ye Yiyi couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth and smile.

"Do you think I would underestimate them?"

"..."

Halwell was embarrassed and speechless.

This is not a question of whether to underestimate or not. There is no comparison between the two, okay?

Without powerful combat skills or strong strength, how can ordinary soldiers challenge magicians and hymnists?

Even if there is a gun, what can it be? Doesn’t the magician have any means of protection?

Not to mention the master, even he himself could easily destroy an entire "Super Knight" team.

Fortunately, this awkward silence did not last too long. Soon everyone reached the end of the road and came to a wide street. Then they followed the strong man into a huge manor with people coming and going.

"What is this place?"

Ye Yiyi looked around at the dirty and messy environment until he saw a young man dressed as a farmer leading a line of dirty and smelly slaves with their hands and feet tied with ropes and naked passing by. Only then did the doubts in his heart get answered.

"This should be the largest slave market in Anshoshuber."

The old blacksmith held Eighty-Eight, who had a dull look and could hardly walk, and looked back at Ye Yiyi who had suddenly fallen silent, and sighed softly.

"Master, I understand how you feel, but we still have work to do."

"Huh...I know."

Ye Yiyi let out a long breath, glanced at the leading farmer, and suddenly called out to the leading strong man and asked:

"What did he buy these slaves for?"

"They are used to farm the land. They are all serfs."

The bald, bearded man was not too surprised and answered calmly.

He glanced at Ye Yiyi's fair and clean face and tender hands, then turned to look at the "old mercenary", and the two naturally exchanged glances.

It’s exactly what I thought, the strong man thought.

Just by looking at his attire, you can tell that he must be some young master who has come out with his guards to experience the sufferings of the world.

Ansoshoeber is a port city, and this kind of thing happens quite often. The bearded man has seen too many of them and is already familiar with them.

So he didn't waste any words and said directly:

"Should we look at the meat first, or go straight to see the owner?"

"You're a decent guy, bro. Why did another master show up?"

The old man smiled and joked.

"Ah!"

The sturdy man laughed at himself and shook his head, saying, "We're all out here trying to make a living. In this world, who doesn't have a 'master' above them?"

"Haha, that's true."

The old magician also laughed at himself, but what he laughed at was not the same as what the strong man said.

Even if he was a master of magic, he was still rushed into the magician's tower by a group of insect people, cursed and imprisoned.

If the master had not arrived in time, his fate would have been even more miserable than those slaves.

"Then let's go and meet the master here."

As Ye Yiyi spoke, his mind returned to peace and was no longer disturbed by external things.

He patted the slightly trembling Bashiba's shoulder, then walked forward and stood in front of the old magician.

The sturdy man shrugged and led the group past the dirty and messy slave market to an exquisite three-story building next to it.

"Go and announce that a distinguished guest wishes to see Lord Hubert."

The burly man guarding the door nodded, turned and went in. Soon, a maid dressed in a pretty long skirt came out to greet him.

Soon, Ye Yiyi saw the "master" here, a fat man wearing silk clothes, with a mustache and a very smooth and "round" smile on his face.

"I didn't know you had such a distinguished guest. I'm sorry for not welcoming you! Come on, everyone, please take a seat!"

After some greetings, several people sat down at the reception table covered with a gorgeous carpet.

Ye Yiyi used the cosmic aura to verify his identity with Halville, then smiled politely and said:

"Sir Hubert, my name is Bernard, and I come from the Kingdom of Campbell. These two are my guards, Gandalf and Eighty-Eight."

"Oh, it's the distinguished guest from Campbell!"

Hubert smiled and was about to check the household registration when he saw Ye Yiyi take out a thin and short staff from his arms and waved it, emitting a blue light.

For a moment, Hubert felt a constant flow of warmth in his body, and his whole body felt comfortable, but he was shocked in his heart and showed a look of awe on his face.

"Mr. Bernard is actually a magician?!"

"These are just some crude tricks. Are you satisfied?"

Ye Yiyi smiled faintly, but there was a look of arrogance in his eyes, showing the style of a magician.

"Satisfied, satisfied!"

How could Hubert dare to say that he was dissatisfied? This time he knew that it was a real distinguished guest, so he quickly changed the room and asked the servants to bring fragrant tea, and he flattered the guest in every way.

Finally, they got down to business. Gandalf said that his young master was quite yearning to visit the Iron Kite Kingdom and hoped that Hubert could help him get a "mercenary certificate" to help them cross the river and enter the country.

At this point, Hubert looked embarrassed.

"Alas, you two have arrived at an unfortunate time. Applying for a mercenary license isn't difficult. Someone asked me for help before."

"But the people who helped with the documents were three fallen knights exiled by Iron Kite. If they were still here, then getting the documents wouldn't be a problem."

"But the problem is, they left Ansuo Shuber a few days ago and went to the interior of Firefly Flower to do some business. I'm afraid they won't be back until tomorrow at the latest."

As soon as these words were spoken, Ye Yiyi subconsciously exchanged a glance with "Gandalf", both of them were frightened in their hearts, but they did not show it.

I went out to do some work a few days ago, and yesterday the entire town of Bojing was massacred.

How could such a coincidence happen?

If you say there is no connection between them, would anyone believe it?

Hubert didn't notice anything about this and just smiled and said:

"If you are not in a hurry, I wonder if I can stay here for one night and help you after they come back?"

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Ye Yiyi's mind, a hint of unknown viciousness flashed in his eyes, but he had a slight smile on his face.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, sir."

Chapter 544: What is the connection between the shackles of civilization and functional drinks?

I declined Hubert's suggestion to stay overnight and left the exquisite little building at noon.

The hot and humid weather, the harsh environment, and the warm wind that carried the fishy smell of the river, even Eighty-Eight, who had been a slave for many years and was accustomed to harsh environments, was sweating all over and felt a tightness in his chest and nausea.

Eighty-eight is like this, so there is no need to say more about Halville. He frowned and endured the foul smell in his nose with difficulty. He waved his hand to fan the air, and turned his head to look at Ye Yiyi who looked thoughtful.

"Master, we're almost halfway done. We're just waiting for the group to come back tomorrow. Do you have any plans for the afternoon? Do you want to make some preparations?"

The old wizard had perfectly integrated the mercenary persona of "Gandalf" and called "young master" without any hesitation. He really seemed like a guard accompanying his young master out.

Of course, if something really happens, it is hard to say who will protect whom.

"Prepare?"

Ye Yiyi collected his thoughts and turned to look at the old man.

"Is it to deal with those knights?"

He asked through the cosmic light.

He actually doesn't care about this matter, he will just act according to the circumstances when the time comes.

If those three fallen knights were really the culprits who massacred Platinum Crystal Town, they would not be able to escape from his grasp and would be captured in an instant.

He asked this, still curious about what preparations Halwell could make for this.

"I plan to buy some materials on the black market, but not to deal with those people."

As Halville spoke, he looked at Eighty-Eight beside him.

"I'm going to make a staff for Eighty-Eight."

He said this through the cosmic light.

"You can also use a magic wand?"

Ye Lingmeng+} Qiqiu's father {Wu Si Liao Xiaqi's wife showed surprised expressions one by one.

"Well, what high requirements can an apprentice have for his staff? As long as it's comfortable to use and can cast magic, that's all."

"If we really want to make a staff that's extremely useful and powerful, we have to ask the people from the Gold Casting Palace to do it. They are the professionals."

"That's it."

Ye Yiyi nodded slightly, a little disappointed.

He thought Halwell was also a master in catalyst making, but it turned out that he was just a half-baked expert.

"Then let's go together. I just want to buy some materials and make something."

"What is the young master going to do?"

This time it was Halwell's turn to be curious.

The things that a magician of the master's level intends to make should be the kind of fine products that will be fought over in the black market in terms of value and practicality, right?

"Let's take a look first and then talk."

Ye Yiyi was not in a hurry.

Anshoshuber is a port city after all, so there should be no shortage of necessary materials.

"That's fine."

After leaving the slave market and returning to Salt Street, under the guidance of the experienced "Gandalf", Ye Yiyi successfully bought the "ginseng" material needed to make the "exciting functional drink".

Ginseng is a relatively rare item in the game. Its rarity lies in the fact that this plant is extremely easily affected by the environment, so there are many subspecies.

For example, in the Forest of Ten Thousand Stone Crystals, there is a subspecies called "Brown Crystal Ginseng".

For example, Ye Yiyi found "brown ginseng", "long-bearded ginseng", "mountain ginseng" and so on in the markets of other cities.

Although their names contain the word "ginseng", their actual effects are very different. They are essentially different from the original material "ginseng" without any modifiers.

Even though Ye Yiyi used his magic power to sublimate, he was unable to turn the "brown crystal ginseng" back into "ginseng", but instead obtained "poisonous ginseng".

This shows how rare this material is.

Even though Halville took Ye Yiyi to travel all over the black market, they finally found this kind of original material from a black market dealer who was engaged in herbal smuggling business.

The good news is that the original "ginseng" is not valuable to dealers. Instead, the "XX ginseng" with various prefixes in front of its name is more valuable.

Ye Yiyi took out the brown crystal ginseng that she had picked from the forest and sold it to the other party. Then she bought various other herbal materials. So the herbal dealer gave her this "worthless" "ginseng" as a gift.

But the bad news is that the dealer only has six ginsengs in stock.

"It's really not easy to find you."

He looked down at the huge, grayish-white strange herb in his hand that looked like a newborn baby, and couldn't help but sigh.

Ginseng

Item Description: A perennial herb that looks like a baby.

One of the ginsengs is a humanoid ginseng blessed by the lingering vines.

An extremely precious and rare material that grows randomly in border areas.
