Chapter 149: Planning

One bottle of "Weakness II", one bottle of "Vision II", one bottle of "Tactical II", and two bottles of "Intuition II" are the list of rewards that Asker gave to the Weissbach family after receiving the mission of supporting him south.

He originally expected the Weissbach family to take out 3-4 bottles of potions, and the rest would be replenished with equivalent money, but he didn't expect that the other party would actually give all the potions.

It seems that he still underestimated the wealth of the Eleanor family.

Five bottles of Tier II potions would be a huge treasure for the average transcendent.

However, for the Azure Sword Mercenary Group at this time, it can be regarded as an equivalent exchange.

After all, everyone went to the battlefield for this, and blocked the northward invasion of the wolf family's army for several months, and put it in other mercenary groups, and those with insufficient strength were enough to be wiped out several times.

In addition, the strategic goal was indeed achieved in the end, ensuring that the direct territory of the Weissbach family avoided countless losses, so it was natural to take these potions.

"Weakness II", a potion commonly used by swordsmen; "Vision II", a potion commonly used by gunners; "Intuition II", a potion commonly used by rangers/thieves, is a popular sequence among the transcendent professions in the Empire. Even if the Weissbach family can't get it, they spend a lot of money to buy it in some secret gatherings, and they can buy it after a long time.

As for "Tactics II", it is a much rarer niche sequence, and only certain organizations or old-school aristocratic families on the mainland have collections.

Therefore, being able to get these five potions really saved Asker a lot of time and energy.

As a result, the entire team is still short of a bottle of Sidlifa's "Giant II", and all members will be able to graduate from the Tier II potion. As for the Level III potions......

It is impossible to rely on trading, and some party players have popularized science in the forum, and the vast majority of Level III potions, after being prepared by NPCs, are almost immediately consumed, and no one can afford to throw Level III potions in the warehouse and store them.

Therefore, of course, there is only one most efficient way for players at this stage to level up......

Slaughter.

Finding the corresponding transcendent to kill him, taking his characteristics and decomposing them, and then getting the formula from the memories of the living or dead victims through special techniques such as minds, spirits, and necromancy, has become the best strategy for everyone to obtain Level III potions.

Of course, it's not without fools who buy formulas and then honestly look for materials.

For example, the full-time mainstream players have opened the server and are all LV.18-19.,He's still slowly collecting the corresponding materials for promotion from LV.8 to LV.9.,I don't care at all that the upper limit of the magic tide is already LV.20.,The monsters and NPCs that can't be defeated are running around the world.。

Such people are generally referred to as "Buddhist players".

Or the Salted Fish Party.

In any case, Asker thinks that he is definitely not a salted fish party, and he has been wandering here for more than half a year, and the missing person notices on the earth's hometown are estimated to be plastered with telephone poles.

So after agreeing to Meyer's request, he took the opportunity to buy the potion recipes for "Weakness III" and "Weakness IV" from Meyer, and asked him if any enemies he had were in the high-level "Weakness" sequence.

"I really don't have a potion formula." Meyer said in an apologetic tone, "As for the extraordinary characteristics, I can only say that as far as I know, the vast majority of all swordsmen with advanced weakness sequences are from the Brotherhood of St. Mark. ”

"I was able to get the finished potion because of the generosity of a duke, and I don't think you can reproduce this situation. Joining the Brotherhood of St. Mark is currently the fastest way to obtain potions through regular channels. ”

Asker groaned. The Brotherhood of St. Mark, of course, he had heard of before, was probably a large transnational monastic organization akin to Freemasonry, whose mission was to help the poor and study theology/serve God.

Similar to the meeting of the poor in A Song of Ice and Fire, the Brotherhood of San Marco also has its own military organization, which is composed of professional elite soldiers who are out of work, and even has a sword school to train these soldiers.

The lords within the empire have an awkward attitude towards the Brotherhood, on the one hand, they like them to help maintain order and help the poor in their realms, and on the other hand, they are also worried that they will not be able to lose their heads, especially now that His Majesty the Emperor is openly against the Holy See......

In short, it would be too much trouble for Asker to join the Brotherhood of San Marco in exchange for materials for "Weakness III" or even "Weakness IV", or to apply for potions directly from within the organization.

I don't know how long it will take to accumulate enough qualifications to apply for potions.

On the other hand, it is also troublesome to murder a soldier of the Brotherhood of St. Mark, this is not a garbage humanitarian organization, it is a large brotherhood with a name in the Holy See, and the means of criminal investigation are not completely absent.

If it's a lawless player who can be resurrected, then you can try to die, but Asker is now a man with a family and a business, so there is no need to take the risk of making enemies in vain.

After saying goodbye to Meyer, Aske walked to the city's potion shop, continuing to think along the way.

If you can't start with the Brotherhood of San Marco, then the other two possible options are to find the local Thieves' Guild and the Illanian Assassin Order.

The former is obviously very unreliable, because you may not be able to find the other person; Even if you can find it, you don't necessarily have an advanced recipe for the weak sequence; Even if there is, they may not be willing to exchange it......

The latter certainly does, and the question is how to contact the other party. Since their last meeting in Olympia, Rasul had given information to several Assassin contacts in the West, most recently in the neighboring Duchy of Bohemia.

Do you really have to run over there?

If it were normal times, the big deal would have passed, how could the mercenary group be afraid of long distances?

The problem is that it is already during the civil war, and he has just received the task of going to the Duchy of Swabia from the Duke of Bavaria to plot against the Sauron family, and even the reward has already thought of the "Will III" potion to give your daughter Eleanor, so you Weissbach family can't be stingy.

Where is there time to run to the Duchy of Bohemia? Comrade Rasul, can't you learn from Agrippina of the pure-blood hermitage? Get a handy instant messenger.

After running a few potion stores, Asker finally got a phantom shell. For the Azure Sword at this stage, most of the problems that can be solved with money are basically not a problem.

As long as those problems that require time and effort are more troublesome......

If you really can't do it, divide the troops! The idea popped into his head that he would take one team to the Duchy of Swabia, and then Sheila and Medea would take the other to the Duchy of Bohemia.

If Sheila and Medea work together, at the tactical and strategic level, it is worth leading the team herself, well.

Asker thought uncertainly, but then thought that if they encountered danger along the way, a new killer like a sniper, or a revenge sequence that could easily capsize the boat, they might not be able to cope without themselves.

It's not that the girls can't beat them, but they are afraid that they will be attacked suddenly, messing up, and causing unnecessary casualties.

At the end of the day, they still lack the experience to deal with all kinds of situations, and they have only been trained under their own hands for less than half a year, a length of time that even in most workplaces, the probationary period has just ended.

Not to mention the youth academy in the professional circle, the cold bench has to sit for at least a year.

Asker, who was so thoughtful and meditating, walked back in a somewhat depressed mood.

It seems that special training must be strengthened.

If you don't decide anything, you should train more.
