Volume 1: Experiences Chapter 0073: Gambling
Suddenly, Renard seemed to have entered some unusual state, it was an indescribable feeling, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye, and there was no time to appreciate it carefully.
If it weren't for the very delicate insight, it might have missed it.
Renard sighed abruptly, not knowing why he felt this sense of loss, but he lost interest in enjoying the view.
He said goodbye to Madame Donna, went upstairs and lay down on the bed, and felt for the blood potion from the spatial ring, the bottle was delicate, only the size of a thumb.
It was hard to believe that after hundreds of catties of tiger blood and countless expensive herbs had been purified and smelted, only twenty-four bottles of pure blood elixir could be produced.
He shook his head: "No wonder each vial of blood potion is worth more than thirty silver coins. ”
Renard uncorked the bottle and poured it all into his mouth, the thick blood and bitterness were mixed, and the taste was like licorice juice mixed with blood, making people feel like they wanted to vomit.
"Ding! Detected foreign beneficial substances, the effect is to increase the strength attribute of two points, and the digestion cycle is twelve hours. ”
"Ding! Automatically list this substance in the system mall, the price is twenty dinars, please name the host. ”
Renard was stunned for a moment, then typed in the words Blood Purification Elixir, and then ignored it, feeling the effect of the medicine carefully.
Suddenly, the burning sensation spread from his abdomen to his whole body, his cheeks were burning like fire, and he had only one thought in his head: find a dust girl to vent, but reason told him that he couldn't do that.
After the burning heat, the itching sensation crept up all over his body, and it didn't take long for him to feel as if there were tens of thousands of ants crawling on his body, and the itching was accompanied by pinprick pain.
Fortunately, the effect of the blood potion did not last long, and after more than ten minutes, Renard's body slowly returned to normal, and he got out of bed and moved his limbs, feeling as if he had inexhaustible strength in his body.
It is impossible for the effect of the blood purification potion to be absorbed in a short period of time, and I am afraid that he will be in this state of excitement for a long time to come.
Then he took out the acute potion, poured it into his mouth without hesitation, smashed it, smashed it, and thought it was quite delicious, a little like lemon juice.
"Ding! Detects a foreign beneficial substance, which has the effect of increasing two agility attributes, and the digestion cycle is twelve hours. ”
"Ding! Automatically list this substance in the system mall, the price is twenty dinars, please name the host. ”
Renard typed the word Keen Elixir into the system, and then lay on the bed and waited for the effect of the medicine to work, but he didn't notice anything unusual for a long time.
If there's one thing in particular that feels like there's no sleepiness at all.
So the people who lived nearby gradually discovered that the kid who originally practiced swords during the day didn't rest at night: "What a diligent guy, he will definitely become a high-level martial artist in the future." ”
The next morning, after only four hours of sleep, Renard rolled over and got out of bed again, and practiced his sword in the garden as usual, the wine was very strong, and Cliffor had taken out most of the barrel alone, and still snoring profusely.
There was no opponent, Reynard found it very boring, and after thinking about it, he sat cross-legged, put the long sword on his knees, and began to close his eyes and meditate.
The day after tomorrow is the day of the duel, and it is impossible to improve your strength in such a short period of time, so it is better to relax your mind and meet the challenge in the best condition.
While meditating, Renard faintly sensed that someone was spying on him, and he opened his eyes sharply and looked at the corner of the intersection, where two figures disappeared at a rapid speed.
A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." ”
With that, he entered a meditative state again.
I don't know how long later, Miss Heidi, who was dressed in a strong suit, suddenly appeared outside the garden: "Lord Renard. ”
Renard opened his eyes and greeted him, "Good morning, Miss Heidi." ”
Miss Heidi barely squeezed out a smile, shook her hands, and took out a leather armor and a pair of boots from the spatial ring: "I hope it can help you." ”
Obviously, both of these things are magical items.
Hand over the two things to Renard, and she stopped talking.
Renard raised an eyebrow: "Miss Heidi, please speak up." ”
After a long silence, Miss Heidi spoke, "Mr. Renard, you should know about off-court betting. ”
"I've heard you say that in the tavern. Renard nodded, then joked, "Are you going to negotiate with Seniore to lose to me, and then trap those gamblers' money?"
Miss Heidi looked helpless: "This joke is not funny, Mr. Renard. ”
She paused and spoke again: "Now your odds have reached a rare one-to-three ratio, but there are still very few wins on you." ”
Renard didn't know what to say, and in the end he could only secretly think to himself about Fat Henry, the manipulator behind the scenes, and then he looked at Miss Heidi with some curiosity: "Who did you press." ”
The other party hesitated for a moment and replied, "Naturally, it's you, and I pressed the heavy bet." ”
Renard didn't know how much the other party was so-called heavy bets, but looking at her desperate appearance, I am afraid it was not a small number.
Do you really think I'm going to lose?
With a sarcastic look on his face, Renard took out two magic crystal cards from the spatial ring and said, "All on me." ”
Miss Heidi shook her head: "It's Henry who sits in the bank, you don't want him to lose all his money, do you?"
Hearing this, Renard stupidly withdrew the magic crystal card, and it is certain that the other party has indeed made a heavy bet.
Immediately afterward, Miss Heidi took out another bottle of potion from the space ring, the color was brighter red than the blood purification potion: "This is a powerful brute elixir, I hope it can work when necessary." ”
Reynard swallowed his saliva, as the name suggests, the Brute Cow Elixir is extracted from the blood of the Wild Bull and many herbs that can make people excited, increasing the combat effectiveness of the user in a short time.
This potion is very rare, even in many large apothecaries, it is difficult to buy, and even if there are any, it is a sky-high price of tens or hundreds of silver coins.
Renard took the brute potion and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I hope I won't use it." ”
Although the Wild Bull Elixir can increase combat effectiveness and make people have much more strength than usual, the sequelae are equally serious, and they can't get out of bed for at least a few days.
Miss Heidi didn't want Renard's brute potion either, but she was prepared.
Then she contributed a full set of elemental basic guides, and after doing what she could, she turned around and left, as if there was something urgent waiting to be dealt with.
After Miss Heidi was gone, Renard continued to sit cross-legged in the garden and meditate, and the cold wind blew, and he seemed to feel nothing, like a statue.
The opposite is true in Old Henry's tavern, which is much more popular than during the festive season, due to the duel the day after tomorrow.
"Your Excellency's strength is stronger than Renard's, and he has a full set of enchanted equipment, so it's hard to win. "Old Henry is still raising the odds, is he trying to cheat our money?" "Only fools will be fooled." ”
