Chapter 349: 'Velociraptor' Gold Series Potions

Raymond came to the "Giant Court" to Gafatron this time for two main purposes.

The first is to get the "Force Ministry" golden potion recipe in the hands of the voodoo potion master in the game in a giant potion shop, and then deduce it into an exclusive recipe that suits you.

The second is to find an elder of voodoo and lift the "funeral flower curse" on Arno's body.

But the matter of lifting the curse is not in a hurry, after all, the old guys of the voodoo tribe are not so easy to reach. They are like the princes and ministers of the human world, and they are not just a commoner who can see them. Especially ordinary humans, it is harder to see them.

What's more, Raymond is not very sure that the Voodoo Elders will agree to this "rude request" now.

If he rashly ran to ask a voodoo elder if he could save a sworn enemy who had just assassinated the chief of the "Mountain Tribe", would those giant elders be tempted to say that they would tie him up first?

Thor's strength is too weak, so he doesn't have much status in the giant clan, even if he is a prince.

The guy only promised to let his brothers introduce him when Raymond had a foolproof plan to create a chance to meet.

As for the rest? Probably not sure.

In the concept of the giant clan, strength is king, and it has always been so.

The identity of the prince is far less than the weight of the fist's discourse.

Therefore, the elders of the Voodoo tribe will only believe in the former "King of Giants" of Thor and his father, Uli Brown. W. Bethold.

As for those princes whose strength is not yet top-notch, where should they stay cool.

If you really want to make any excessive demands, those old men will not take into account the identity of any prince and beat people up like that.

......

The sea area where the "Land of Giants" is located is rich in products, and mineral deposits and timber are scarce resources in the world of great exploration...

Giant warriors are brave and good at fighting, and feed on killing large magical beasts and sea beasts all year round.

Therefore, there are a large number of rare treasures sold in the giant shop in the city, such as high-grade Warcraft materials, magic crystals, rare raw ores, and various high-quality equipment...

In addition to those giant warriors who are more than ten meters mighty, there are also many half-blood giants who are five or six meters tall in Gaffatron City.

These "little giants" are not particularly outstanding in combat effectiveness, and they can't fight, so they gradually learned some of the habits of human philistines and became professional businessmen.

They have all kinds of shops in the city, such as the Giant's Blacksmith's Shop, the Magic Crystal Shop, restaurants, soup pools, inns, and of course, various Giant's Taverns.

Because the Land of Giants is not under the jurisdiction of the actual government, there is no naval base in the nearby seas. As a result, Gafatron has become a favorite place for free trade among pirates and free adventurers.

The city is full of people and lively.

......

For a few days, everyone in the "Ghost Pirates" was very busy, and they also enjoyed their leisurely days in the Giant Court.

Anna wanders around the city, documenting some of the customs of the Giant Country.

The fat cat and Jiji, a bear and a monkey, mixed around with public funds and ate and drank in major restaurants in the city.

Lulu and Thor spend their days collecting creature samples from all kinds of giants, and they are almost not caught by the giant guards as some evil warlocks...

Colin and Nicole plunged headlong into the project to study the "Tree of Babel" and became obsessed. Raymond listened to that, and they seemed to want to get some pieces of wood to install on the "Golden Ghost"....

Raymond himself ran the "pre-task" for several days, brushing all the things needed for that task in the game, and then got the key "task props" he wanted.

These indigenous giants in reality are not much different from the NPCs in the game, and when certain keywords are triggered, it is easy to follow the clues to lead them to talk.

"I hope to get that golden potion without any problems..."

Raymond looked at the "Ancestral Treasure Chest of the Kapil Family" in his package, the corners of his mouth slightly curled, and he walked towards the street on the trunk of the tree.

......

The "golden potion" that Raymond needed to find the giant clan was only a task item in the game, not a task reward, and I don't know if he could get it successfully.

The reason why this rare golden potion is not coveted by players known as "Locusts" is that it is not suitable for players to advance at all.

In other words, all the potions of the giants are not suitable for ordinary humans.

The Giants' potions are in a series of their own, except for some special potion formulas of the Voodoo Tribe, more than 99% of the potions are formulas with "strength amplification" as the main attribute.

The bloodline of the giant clan has a super strength talent, so their potions, even if they are black iron-level potions, the "power increase" in the medicinal properties is comparable to ordinary human legend level or above magic potions.

Gold-level and legendary-level potions have a violent increase that ordinary human bodies can't bear at all.

There is a threshold for the body to withstand the increase in the strength stat. Just like a water tank, an ordinary human overflow can hold 5L of water, while a giant can hold 50L. The higher the bloodline, the higher the upper limit of this threshold, which is the unparalleled strength talent of the Giant Clan.

Ever since the vampire bloodline completely fused the "Ackerman virus" into symbiosis, Raymond has found that his body cells are super active, and the tolerance threshold for various attributes that he can withstand has been growing.

For example, in the simplest example, when he advanced to [Dragon Hunting] in sequence 5, his initial strength increased by 135 points at one time;

But in fact, Raymond felt that the limit of what his body could withstand at that time was at least around 180 points.

There are two reasons for this failure to reach the threshold: the first is that the [Dragon Hunting] potion amplification attribute does not fully match Raymond's physical condition; The second is the 135 strength attribute of this potion amplification, which is the limit that ordinary people can probably withstand when they advance to the "Dragon Slaying Sequence" potion to Sequence 5.

And Raymond's physical endurance at that time had exceeded this "ordinary limit" by a large margin.

This is also the reason why Raymond insists on deducing the potion that suits him by himself, instead of blindly trying to copy the old ways of others. Otherwise, just for the sake of the dragon slaying sequence, he would have done everything possible to calculate Valpo Mammon in Eludnis City, and maybe he could get the follow-up recipe.

And the "Dragon Slaying Sequence" is already a legendary potion with the most exaggerated increase in strength attributes among human potions. This was not enough to meet Raymond's needs, so he could only play some potions that were "not normal humans".

For example, the Giants' secret potion.

The "Titan Royals" Berthold clan has inherited a semi-legendary recipe, and Raymond really wants it, and maybe he can get some information through Thor's guy. However, the super strength potion that is only suitable for the "Titans" at that time is not suitable for the small body of ordinary humans, and it cannot withstand it at all.

Raymond estimated that the golden sequence of the giant clan was almost suitable.

And it just so happened that he knew that in the "Old Hogg's Voodoo Potion Shop" in front of him, there was such a golden sequence of "Force Sensitivity Department"!

......

The strength of the giant clan is respected, and the more high-rise buildings in the trunk of the Divine Tree, the more noble the status.

The uppermost building is the palace of the Giant King, the middle floor is the residence of some powerful Giant clans, and the lower floor is the potion shop and alchemy house of the voodoo priests... The lowest level of the flat ground is a normal city where shops and half-blood giants live.

A few miles up the city's main thoroughfare, just behind the curtain of a turbulent waterfall, there is a mysterious alley hidden among the verdant foliage.

Of course, the alley for the Giants is about as wide as the two-way four-lane lane of the ordinary human world.

It took Raymond a few days to complete the very complicated chain of quests and get the quest trigger items, and then he walked into the "Old Hogg's Voodoo Potion" shop.

The potions shop was about half the size of a football field, and the doorway was more than ten meters high, and you could see a brown counter five or six meters high when you entered. It's similar to a human potion shop, it's full of bottles and jars, and there's a thick smell of mixed medicine in the air...

It's just a small potions shop in Gafatron, and it may be a bit cramped for the giants.

But for Raymond, an ordinary human, it's a little unfriendly.

Inside, he jumped up the ladder beside him, and then he barely managed to show his head out of the counter, and saw the green-skinned giant who was busy behind the counter.

He is familiar with the voodoo priest, and in the game, this is a miserly little old man, and the players call him "Shrewd Old Hogg".

Voodoo Sacrifice is a special case of the Giants' who are more "slim".

They were also tall, but they didn't have knotted muscles, and they looked thin, like long bamboo poles.

Their bodies are too thin for the giant warriors. But the voodoo priests have a high status among the giants, and they are the equivalent of mystical warlocks, magicians, potions masters...

They are one of the very few rare Giants who can pass on the Giant's voodoo mysteries.

Old Hogg saw Raymond and asked professionally, "Human, I think you need some potion materials that are special to the giant clan?" ”

"No, I'm not here to buy potion materials."

Raymond didn't have any ink, and said straight to the point at the green-skinned giant, "Mr. Hogg, I heard that you are looking for the lost ancestral treasure chest again?" I think I brought you..."

The giants like to be straightforward, and they don't have to beat around the bush at all.

So saying, he took out the wooden box.

"What?"

Old Hogg was stunned for a moment.

When he looked up again and saw the two-meter-long treasure chest that Raymond was holding, his face immediately showed a look of surprise and a little doubt, "My Kapil family's ancestral treasure chest?" ”

The huge treasure chest was like a small box with jewels in Old Hogg's hand, and he looked at the pattern of the box and exclaimed, "Oh my God, where did you find it?!" ”

"There's the coat of arms of the Kapil family and magic locks on it, I think it must be right."

Raymond didn't beat around the bush, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "I paid a big price for this." ”

The Giants advocate simplicity and rudeness, and there is nothing wrong with this straightforward way of communicating, and the Giants will take it for granted.

Sure enough,

Hearing this, Hogg immediately understood that he needed to pay a corresponding "reward" for it.

The voodoo giant carefully inspected the lines on the magic locks, and after seeing that there was no damage at all, he nodded with satisfaction: "Human, your sincerity has won my approval. Say, what do I have to pay to get this box? ”

【Ding! Hogg Kapil's +5 opinion of you, current relationship is 'Neutral'...]

It's not that Raymond isn't curious about the contents of the box, it's that he doesn't have to open it to know that the box contains the potion recipe exclusive to the giants.

A complete golden recipe from Sequence 9 to Sequence 0.

Of course, even if he opened it privately, he would only get a few ancient animal skins, on which would be trivial things that recorded the history of the Kapil family, such as "genealogy".

Hidden content needs to be impregnated with a special hidden potion in Old Hogg's hand to reveal it.

In the game, the Giant's Potion doesn't do much for the player in the game, they just use this quest to obtain the "Hidden Potion", which is an excellent weapon against invisible assassins.

The plot involved in this mission is not too complicated, that is, the ancestors of the Kapil family divided the "potion formula" and "interpretation method" into the two branches of the family for safekeeping. Later, for some reasons, the two branch families turned against each other.

Old Hogg knew there was a family heirloom, but he couldn't get the chest. The other vein has a chest in his hand, but he doesn't know what secrets are on those skins. Over time, the other vein fell into disarray, and the box also fell into an underground warehouse somewhere to eat ashes.

Old Hogg didn't expect to find the chest again.

If Raymond follows the flow of the game's quests, he will successfully get the "Hidden Potion" recipe. But today is not for the potion, and the next conversation will naturally not be to ask for the potion formula.

No matter where you are, this complete recipe for a complete golden sequence is invaluable.

He didn't expect the old Hogg to easily agree to show him the recipe, which required an equivalent exchange.

"Mr. Hogg..."

Raymond said the line that he had thought of a long time ago, and said, "As you can see, I am an adventurer. Also, I'm a high-level potions master..."

"Senior Potions? You? ”

Old Hogg looked at Raymond's young face, obviously not convinced.

A high-level potions master is a potions master who is at least six stars or higher, and it is impossible to reach that level without specializing in potions for decades.

He has been immersed in pharmacy for many years, and he is only a six-star intermediate potions master, and this young man actually opened his mouth and said that he was a seven-star potions master?

"This is the Potions Master's Guild-certified Seven-Star Potions Master Badge..."

Raymond had expected him to have this reaction, and directly took out the Potions Master badge that had been certified by the Potions Masters Guild in the city a few days ago, and said, "Of course, my family heritage allows me to have knowledge far beyond this badge rank. You know, to take a higher-level potions master, you need to test your qualifications..."

The assessment of this seven-star Potions Master badge is already a little reluctant, although the alchemy skills he has mastered are all at the full level, but after all, his knowledge of potions is not enough.

However, this does not prevent him from boasting.

The giant clan looks at "strength", and only when the strength is strong enough, the weight of speech will be heavier.

Seeing the medal, Old Hogg was still a little suspicious, "Are you really a seven-star potions master?" ”

"Yes!"

Raymond nodded, stated his purpose, and said, "As you just heard, I'm an adventurous high-level potions master. I've traveled the world, I've gained experience, I've accumulated potions knowledge, and I've loved collecting potion recipes..."

After a pause, he continued, "I heard that your family's ancestors inherited a 'Golden Sequence' potion, and it so happened that I once met a certain giant overseas, and he talked about the secret of the treasure chest. So, I paid a great price to help you bring back the treasure chest, just to get a look at the true face of that golden formula. Of course, we can sign a confidentiality contract to guarantee that this recipe will not be leaked..."

"No... I don't feel like I need to pay such a big price to get my family heirloom chest back. ”

Hogg didn't expect Raymond to know the secret of the treasure chest, apparently he might have heard that he had a "hidden potion" in his hand.

He flashed another shrewd glint and said with a slight menace, "If that's the case, I'd rather this potion never see the light of day." ”

"Mr. Hogg, I don't mean anything else. I just love collecting potion recipes and researching..."

Raymond had expected it, and deliberately showed a rich and extravagant appearance, and said, "In exchange, I can provide you with some other recipes, such as a part of the 'Dragon Slaying Sequence' of the Twelve Sages." You know, that's the best legendary recipe at all. ”

After a pause, he continued to throw out the surprising conditions: "Or, I can provide you with some advanced potions knowledge, such as the advanced content in the 'Potions General Secret Codex' written by the ten-star potions master 'Master Iglis', I think you should need these things very much..."

Obviously, he came prepared, and every word was stuck in Old Hogg's heart.

Hearing this, Old Hogg really showed a shocked expression, "What? Do you have the 'Dragon Slaying Sequence' recipe and advanced potion knowledge? ”

He was not very interested in human potion recipes, but he was very interested in advanced potion knowledge.

Although the potions of humans and giants follow different routes, the refining techniques and principles of potions are exactly the same. He himself has been stuck in a six-star potions master for many years and has not been able to advance, and he is eager to see through the advanced potions knowledge! The meat is delivered to the mouth, where can you resist the temptation?

"Yes."

Raymond nodded confidently: "In exchange, I can show you a part of it first to show me my sincerity." ”

"If you're telling the truth, I think I can consider your suggestion..."

Old Hogg's eyes rolled.

If the human being in front of you is a "liar", then a little bit of expertise will reveal the bottom.

But now that he confidently said these conditions, it showed that nine times out of ten he really had those things that were comparable to the most precious things for a potions master.

Being able to advance to a seven-star potions master at such a young age, it seems that this kid is really the inheritance of a certain human potions family.

Old Hogg thought so, and began to weigh the pros and cons in his heart.

Their family has lost the ancestral gold secret recipe for so many years, and they are doing well. Now not only is the recipe lost, but you can also gain some equally valuable high-level potions knowledge, which is definitely a "double gain"!

The corners of Raymond's mouth lifted slightly, and while the iron was hot, he took out a few hand-copied potions advanced knowledge, "This is my sincerity... You can see if you're satisfied..."

......

The conversation in the potions shop went on for hours.

Raymond completely conquered the voodoo giant Old Hogg with his professional knowledge of potions.

He knew that the old giant was deliberately testing his depth, so he didn't hide it, and had a well-founded "nonsense".

If you have questions, you have to answer them, and if you have answers, you will definitely pull out a lot of professional knowledge... Beat people with skills!

Even some of the advanced potions knowledge questions asked by Old Hogg were beyond Raymond's comprehension. He could also recite the original content of the "Potions Secret Codex", which fooled the old giant into a daze.

As time goes by, the system prompt keeps ringing.

The voodoo giant's favorability has also grown rapidly, from "neutral" to "friendly".

finally

After signing a confidentiality deed, the parties reached an exchange agreement.

Raymond got his wish to get the giant's golden potion "Velociraptor Sequence" he needed, and he only paid a part of the advanced potion knowledge.

......

With the recipe in hand, Raymond didn't forget to lift the curse for Arno.

took so much effort to come up with a recipe, but also to get involved in the line of the voodoo elder from this old Hogg.

Because, he knows, voodoo priests are all in the lineage, this Hawke's teacher or elder... It must be some voodoo elder of the tribe!

"By the way, Mr. Hogg, do you have a way for me to meet the elders of your voodoo tribe? It's better to be a noble inheritance elder, or a secret elder..."
