Because of the hustle and bustle, a large fixed business district has almost formed near the entrance of the underground city, with countless small vendors setting up stalls on the ground.
The things they sell are not ordinary items either, but various herbs, minerals, monster materials, etc. produced in the dungeon.
Some people would even put alchemical reagents here. Speaking of alchemical reagents, Simon's heart moved.
If we want to set up an adventure group in the future, we must have a stable source of income.
As for the White Fruit Adventure Group, because he was too busy and the others did not have the talent for alchemy, they all took time out to go to the dungeon to collect materials and sell them for money.
But if you really want to make money, you have to make high value-added products that are more profitable - chain gold reagents.
Simon wanted to learn it, but he was too busy.
Now that I have some free time, I must start a study plan and get the alchemical reagent.
After thinking about it, Simon started strolling around the market near the entrance of the dungeon.
As for going to the sixth floor to find inspiration, there is no rush for it. The monsters are there anyway, and they will not run away, just like leeks, which will grow again after being cut.
After a while, Simon found the stall selling alchemical reagents.
There are a wide variety of goods here, including chain gold reagents that increase attack, potions that temporarily increase blood, potions that increase magic resistance, potions that increase defense, potions that increase movement speed, potions that increase weight...
The magic of alchemy lies in its ability to materialize various extraordinary properties and make them into magical liquids that can be consumed and digested by humans.
For example, if the adventure group is very rich, they don't need a nanny, and can fill up all the potions and go to the dungeon together.
By saving one or two nurse positions, more output players can be used in the Earth Dragon Secret Realm. This is crucial for many teams that have a big gap in damage when fighting BOSS.
However, this type of therapeutic drug is very expensive, almost to the point of being astronomically expensive.
If Simon's base salary of 80,000 in the original team is taken as the standard, without taking into account the income from the spoils of war, then the price of a single bottle of ordinary healing potion would be as high as 10,000 blue essence blocks, which is equivalent to one-eighth of his base salary.
Please note that this ordinary healing potion can only restore 500 health points.
Simon himself has 1,500 health points, and one bottle of medicine can only restore one-third of it.
If the original team had a heavy shieldman named Bones, her health would be as high as 5,000, and a bottle of potion would only restore one-tenth of her health, which is really useless.
It’s better to use a nanny directly. You should know that a healing spell cast by an ordinary nanny will at least damage three or four hundred people.
This does not require spending any money, just pay the salary, and the nurse's basic attack will restore health.
Like Mei Guo from the original team, after activating the third skill, her health recovery increased dramatically, starting at one thousand per second, and it is said that there is no one she cannot save.
Even the best healing potion on the market can only instantly restore 2,000 health points, but it is sold at millions of sperm coins per bottle and is only available during the annual auction.
The huge price difference of healing potions is a result of both market trends and the cost of alchemy.
Simon did not expect to learn the alchemy of healing potions, but as long as he could learn other potion-making methods, he could provide a living for his future team.
"How much is the alchemy manual?" Simon said, pointing at the things on the stall.
"One hundred fine pieces, fixed price. No knives accepted." The stall owner was wearing heavy armor, with a big sword standing next to the box. The edge of the sword was rolled up, and he looked like a veteran who had fought in the battlefield for a long time.
Simon estimated the price. He had been to the market before and knew that the price of this kind of manual fluctuated around eighty fine dollars.
It is indeed cheap to buy the books alone, but the standard equipment that comes with alchemy is the big expense.
Simon asked about the price of the chain gold device again, and the other party quoted him a price of 100,000 spirit blocks, which was Simon's monthly income.
The main reason is that he is a founding member of the White Fruit team. Besides, he has made substantial contributions whether he is making strategies or assisting others.
If it were an ordinary trainee assistant, with their salary, minus the daily expenses for food, clothing and weapon maintenance, they would probably have to save for several years to afford a complete set of standard chain metal equipment.
Simon took a step forward and was about to go to other stalls to have a look.
The heavy shieldman's eyes fixed on his face and he shouted, "Wait a minute, is this guy the one who retreated from the white fruit?"
Simon stopped, looking puzzled.
The uncle was stunned for a moment, and quickly pulled the person next to him to confirm.
Two seconds later, both of them confirmed that this was the Simon they remembered.
"It's really Simon!"
"By God!"
"Mr. Simon actually patronized my stall!"
"Do you want to learn alchemy? I'll sell you this book for free. Also, if you want alchemy equipment, I'll give it to you for 50,000 gold coins. Just consider it a friendship!"
This sudden admiration and price reduction caught Simon off guard.
It was when Uncle Chongdun shouted like this that all the stall owners around him looked over with expressions of surprise and delight.
"It's Simon!"
"Simon is here!"
They cheered with joy, as if they had seen their role model.
Chapter 15 The Birth of Simon
To be honest, Simon didn't know why they had such fanatical expressions.
Logically speaking, I am not a big star, nor am I a goddess who is so beautiful that it makes you burst with passion.
But what’s wrong with these people? They look like pilgrims, as if they have seen the arrival of an idol.
"What's the matter with you?" Simon asked.
Simon wouldn't believe their lies until he had a clear understanding of the situation.
"Simon, you are the strongest trainee, don't you know that?"
"Yes, we watched you lead the White Fruit Adventure Group all the way to the ninth floor, the tenth floor, and even into the Earth Dragon Secret Realm!"
"While other trainee adventure groups are still working as tools in high-pressure environments, you are the only one who, as a trainee, has stepped into places we dare not imagine."
"You are too powerful—"
Simon was a little stunned by the compliments one after another.
When did I become so popular?
No.
Simon recalled that the gossip editor said he was famous.
It seems that this is not nonsense.
If this hadn't happened today at the market, he really wouldn't have had this idea.
He assesses his own capabilities mainly by looking at what his peers have achieved, and then estimates his own capabilities.
For example, if Red Rose’s assistant can lead the team into the sixth level, then he is not as good as others.
As for where the other trainee assistants went, did they enter the Earth Dragon Secret Realm on the tenth floor?
Driven by long-term work pressure, he subconsciously ignored it.
The main reason was that in the past year, all the people he had come into contact with were full-time adventurers, and he had not come into contact with any apprentice adventurers.
Besides, making the guide was very tiring for him, and he would usually go back to his room and fall asleep immediately. He had no time to care about what the lower-level adventurers thought of him. He only knew that he was not weak.
"I appreciate your kindness, but... it's better not to go to such extremes. I'm not a god. I'm also an ordinary person who started from scratch. The only difference may be that I am more detailed than everyone else."
What Simon said was the truth. Since he traveled through time, apart from taking advantage of the information gap and activating the rare profession of Dream Maker from the auxiliary goddess statue, there have been no other golden finger benefits.
In the game he played in his previous life, many things corresponded to things in reality, except for the place names and major local historical events.
This may be related to his birthplace. He traveled to a remote corner that has no connection with the main events, so there are no celebrities in the local history that he is familiar with.
In short, as a time traveler, he has no powerful plug-ins to help him, and his teammates have no experience. If he wants to make a successful strategy, he can only take advantage of the information gap at hand, work harder than others, and add more details.
It would be better if Simon didn't explain.
After this explanation, people who originally liked him liked him even more.
"Master Simon is so humble."
The heavy shieldman feels that a 40% discount is already high.
A big shot like Simon should be given it at the lowest price.
"It's so dazzling that I feel ashamed of myself."
Some people closed their eyes with a look of adoration on their faces.
"Mr. Simon, as long as you want to build a team, I will join you!"
The adventurers were quite excited and shouted loudly, their faces flushed red.
Most of them are trainee adventurers, little transparent people living at the bottom of society. It is very difficult for them to form a team to fight in dungeons.
Many people were almost starving to death on the streets, and were shocked when they heard about Simon's growth story.
When there is someone who is just like you, also an intern, and also so poor that he is almost starving to death.
But he repeatedly created miracles and broke into the ninth floor, the tenth floor, and even the mysterious earth dragon secret realm.
At this moment, they felt incredible, as if they saw light.
Among the crowd, a blonde nun in black nun's uniform passed by, holding a cross in her hand, looking at Simon in the distance with a pious face.
She was once a person in distress among the countless people. Her family fell into poverty and she was sold to the church when she was young. She prayed to the Virgin Mary day and night.
As an apprentice, she prayed to the goddess Maria countless times, but received no response and could never light up the stars in the sea of consciousness.
The nun colleagues around her were promoted to full-time positions one by one and became wet nurses for various adventure groups.
She gave up praying, believing that there was no God in the world and that talent was everything.
She thought she had seen through reality, so she started to give in and live one day at a time.
Until one day, she heard about Simon's deeds and began to understand Simon.
Although Simon was only an apprentice, he relied on his intelligence and hard work to lead his team to catch up with the Red Rose Adventure Group step by step, and even surpassed them.
It was not until the secret realm of the Earth Dragon unfolded that he was overtaken by the Red Rose again.
This is incredible.
He's just an apprentice.
Why he was able to do so many things that the full-time assistant couldn't do.
Although his talent is limited, he has surpassed the limits of an apprentice.
At this moment, he is the light.
The nun, who originally did not believe in God, now had a new faith.
Faintly, the stars in her sea of consciousness seemed to have slight movements.
Even if she just moved a little, she felt extremely surprised.
And the person who brought this change to her was Simon.
At this moment, thousands of emotions flashed through my mind and were finally condensed into one sentence.
"Simon," she whispered.
Her voice is not loud, but it has an inexplicable magic that makes people around her remember it after hearing it.
At this time, they still don't understand the specific meaning of this word.
They just thought that this word was very suitable for Simon, so they secretly memorized the words used by the nun.
Simon finally bought a batch of alchemy books and standardized alchemy equipment at a low price from the market.
As for the materials for alchemy, Simon felt embarrassed to take them.
His space backpack contained various magical beast materials and herbs accumulated over the past five years, enough for him to use for a long time.
"Well, let's go to the sixth floor to find some inspiration."
Simon patted his clothes. This shopping experience was really not very good and he was a little shocked.
He is not the kind of person who likes to be worshipped as a god.
Rather than becoming a god in the hearts of ordinary people, he would rather be a beam of light to illuminate their way forward.
"Senior Simon?"
