Chapter 818: Secret Medicine Hut
The warm breeze gently blows over the city of Fran, and the warm afternoon sun pours brightly, bringing people a terrifying sleepiness.
On Haverey Street in the lower city, Merlin, dressed in a different costume, is being led by a warrior named Phil to a secret medicine hut.
Both the Elixir Lodge and Phil were introduced by Poseyman, saying that they had access to some very rare materials.
The so-called Secret Medicine House is actually a black market organization...... Don't call it that name, it's called the Elixir Hut, but it's possible to take the form of any building, even in the open air.
The lower town is a place of dragons and snakes, and in order to avoid trouble, Mei Lin shows off her good camouflage skills. The wizard's robe was transformed into a grayish-brown tight-fitting samurai coat, coarse cloth tight-fitting breeches, and yellow cowhide boots. Her hair is neatly combed, tied into a ponytail at the back of her head, and the bridge of her nose is raised in disguise against the shadow of foundation, and other makeup methods make Merlin look several years more mature, like a weathered mercenary.
The lower town is a chaotic place, with beggars, thieves, outrags, mercenaries, etc. Therefore, Merlin's dress is not remarkable.
Merlin followed Phil vigilantly through the crowd to avoid being noticed, after all, it was very suspicious that a full-time wizard was here. Moreover, black market organizations have always been cracked down on and excluded by officials and even wizarding organizations, and once discovered, it will be very troublesome.
Although the lower town is not small, a third the size of Fran City, the buildings are unplanned and built at will, so the streets are narrow, crowded and chaotic, but in this environment, Phil is like a fish in water, and is very adaptable to taking Merlin to continuously change direction and street with the help of pedestrians and houses, and get rid of any possible tracking.
Half an hour later, Merlene and Phil came out of a quiet and cold alley and returned to the busiest intersection of the lower city, and walked into a tailor's shop.
Ignoring the suspicions of the tailor shop owner, Phil walked directly to the staircase, and suddenly stood out in the shadows to block it with two big men with faces as butchers.
The night falcon looked down at Fran in the moonlight. Phil whispered something inexplicable in the southern accent of the Kingdom of Swiftland.
Hearing this, the two big men relaxed their guard, and after a few careful glances, they signaled that Phil and Merlin could go up.
Walking up the narrow and wobbly staircase to the second floor, Mei Lin immediately sensed that there were dangerous alchemy traps arranged around her, which seemed to be deliberately exposed to deter those who found here.
"It's worthy of a secret black market organization, even in such a place of bullet blades, it can arrange such a big deal. Merlin judged that the strength of the alchemy trap here was equivalent to the witchcraft released by a first-level wizard, and it was worth at least a thousand magic stones.
This secret medicine hut is extremely wealthy, and has a certain strength to protect them, so it is possible to invite a high-level alchemist to set it up.
Leather boots creaked against the floor that seemed to be in disrepair, and only Merlin and Phil walked side by side in the cold, quiet hallway.
The two quickly walked outside a house in the middle of the second floor, and Phil knocked respectfully on the door: "Mr. Basij, I'm Phil, and I've brought you a business. ”
"Come in. Bassi, who had already confirmed Phil's identity through the alchemy device, replied in a flat tone, his voice old and tired, with a strong bitter feeling.
Phil pushed open the door like a butler and stretched out his hand to signal, "Miss, please come in." ”
Merlin smiled as she walked and saw that the window opposite was tightly covered by a thick black curtain, and only a little light came through...... This left the whole house in a gloomy and gloomy darkness.
In the shadows in front of the curtains, there was a desk and chair, where a man in a black gown sat with his back to Merlin and Phil.
As Phil walked in and closed the door slightly, the man in the shadows turned his chair and looked straight at the two.
His flaxen-colored hair began to dull and thin, and his face was defined, stiff, rugged and distinctly aged. Although it is impossible to tell his exact age, Merlin judged that he was at least sixty years old, because according to Phil's description, when Basij first came to Fran City, Basij was a great knight, and after twenty or thirty years of hibernation, no one knew whether his strength had improved or stagnated.
Basij looked at Merlin and Phil with pale green, slightly cloudy eyes, and then said, "Pour a cup of tea for the two guests." What business are you going to do?"
Suddenly, without warning, a middle-aged man in neat clothes and meticulous manners walked out of the shadows, he bowed slightly politely, and then went to the nearby pantry to prepare black tea for Merlin and Phil.
Phil, acting as Merlin's guide, replied in her place, "Mr. Basij, my employer wants to buy a dragon grass. ”
"Dragon grass, a specialty of the Liberty Alliance's South?" Basij frowned slightly.
After saying this, Basij's eyes became sharp, as if he could see through people's hearts, staring at Merlin, so Merlin had to speak herself: "Yes, Mr. Basij, I need a fresh dragon grass." Excuse me, how many magic stones do I have to pay to get you to agree?"
After a few seconds of silence, Basij suddenly burst out laughing: "If you have the strength to help me kill Kirby, then I won't accept you with a magic stone." ”
After a pause, the Barsky pulled a cigar out of a drawer, struck a match and lit it.
He watched the blue-white smoke slowly come out, and said slowly: "This kind of fire dragon grass is very difficult to obtain, so in the past twenty years, I have only succeeded in obtaining six, the price is very expensive, it requires five thousand magic stones or the equivalent of gold coins, if you can't come up with so much money, you can consider doing something for me." ”
Although she was able to apply for compensation for the large amount of money spent on the mission, Merlin only had the equivalent of a hundred gold tales of gold, gems, etc., and the rest had long since been exchanged for magic potions, materials, and utensils in the wizard's hut and alchemy hut.
After weighing it for a while, Mei Lin smiled gently: "I choose to pay for magic stones, but I don't have so many on me, I don't know if Mr. Basij will accept magic items?"
Even if Basij's affairs were simple, there might be a danger of getting involved in other fights, so if there was really no way, Merlin would never choose to do something for him.
"It's a pity. Basij said in a calm tone, "Miss, you can pay for magic items." I'm here to assess the fair price, and it's one of the best in the whole of Downtown. ”
