Chapter Seventy-Two: Open the Door Early
Under the leadership of Nana, Liao Qi and others came to the curtain of the tent belonging to the girl.
At first glance, it was indeed much better than the other villagers, at least it was an independent private tent, like a hole or something, and it was all patched up.
But...
"I thought that the wooden house over there, carried on the back of the demonic beast, would be your residence."
Liao Qi looked towards the position next to the girl's tent, not far away.
In one corner of the village, another large clearing had been vacated, and a lock-shaped creature about the size of an elephant lay there a little old.
As for the most novel thing for Liao Qi, it was still on the back of this demonic beast, and a small house was actually built.
Such a sight...
In the gathering place, in such a pile of broken tents, it would be difficult to notice.
Before the older girl Nana could speak, Lot, who was in the back, first let out a disdainful "cut" sound from her mouth.
"That's Carl's home."
"This bastard relied on currying favor with the orcs, and was given a camel monster who was about to die of old age."
"Hmph, it's not a big deal, such a thing that is treated as garbage by others, even if it is given to Nana, Nana will not want it!"
After listening to the young man's words, Liao Qi began to be a little interested in the name "Carl".
As if remembering something again, he turned back to the fairy woman behind him and asked:
"Sophie, if I'm not mistaken, you said before that the representative of the trade with your academy is also this person named Carl, right?"
"Uh-huh."
The fairy woman snorted softly, in response.
However, judging from Sophie's demeanor, it seems that this goblin doesn't like the boy named "Carl" very much.
Well...
Let's keep an eye out for it later...
Liao Qi's impression of Carl is only that the young man seems to be a character in the village, similar to the demon "licking dog", and is not very liked by other villagers.
But for a person, what Liao Qi always has is not what he said, but what he did.
If you look at the results alone...
It seems that this Carl's role in the gathering place is not small, at least it is much stronger than the current Lot, who seems to have no effect except for moving his mouth.
"Patriarch, let's go inside."
Nana's voice next to her interrupted Liao Qi's thoughts.
The girl had already lifted the curtain of the tent for them, and suddenly the smell of herbs was directly towards everyone.
"Well, let's go."
After coming back to his senses, Liao Qi put Carl aside for the time being.
He took the lead and as soon as he walked into Nana's tent, he immediately began to look around.
And then...
This...
Whitetongue grass, a wild grass with small white flowers that looks like a human tongue, and a mature ground grass plant for one or two years, is a key material for the preparation of "dark vision" medicine.
The black sari fruit is the size of a pine cone and has a rough surface, but the flesh inside has the property of magical resonance, which is the key ingredient for the preparation of the "Magic Amplification" potion.
And on the other shelf, the berries are in the shape of a ball, similar to a black pepper plant...
The roots of matsutake mushrooms have a fragrance similar to that of cloves and cinnamon, and although they are mostly used as spices, they can be used as an amplifying agent for potions after a little treatment, improving the quality of the effect.
And also...
The more Liao Qi looked, the more surprised he became, he never expected that these indigenous humans on the island would be so attentive to the collection of materials.
I saw that in addition to the rows of wooden shelves, many plants were cultivated and planted...
Many of them are stored and collected, using wooden lattices or ceramic cans to collect stored herbs.
"Nana, these..."
Liao Qi opened his mouth and turned his gaze back to the older girl next to him.
Sofer, a goblin from the academy beside him, also showed a look of surprise at the scene in the tent in front of him at this moment.
Even the maid Zero, who had always been paralyzed, had a slight look of emotion in her eyes.
"Are these things all accumulated by you alone?"
Liao Qi's tone was filled with some disbelief.
"It's not all, Village... In the village, other people also helped a lot. ”
Nana replied quietly.
However, Lot, who was standing next to the girl, seemed to hear Liao Qi's admiration, and became a little proud
"Hmph, otherwise how do you think our Nana's medical skills came from?"
"Let me tell you, as long as Nana is here, no matter who is sick, there will be a prescription for the right medicine!"
"Is that so..."
nodded, if this is the case, then it seems that he really underestimated the original Terran patriarch, this girl named "Nana".
So...
Could it be that the reason why Lott will grow into a potions master and master all kinds of witcher's body enhancement formulas comes from, or enlightenment, the girl in front of him?
As if grasping some clues, Liao Qi added Nana to his list of attention.
After that, he was in a good mood and showed a smile.
In the girl's tent, with such a sufficient stock of materials, you can completely save the time of going out to find materials by yourself.
"Zero, find a cloth bag and put all the herbs I let you bring next."
"Okay, Lord Liao Qi."
After Liao Qi had just finished ordering the maid, the others present showed strange looks.
"Wait a minute... You, how many things do you have to take, if it's just to heal, you won't need so much! ”
Lot, who has the most direct temperament, was the first to ask Liao Qi.
Although the older girl Nana didn't say it directly, judging from the expression on the girl's face, she also looked like she was in pain.
Even Sophie, who has always been on Liao Qi's side, the fairy woman laughed out loud, and quipped a little jokingly:
"Liao Qi, don't you want to use these herbs to crusade against goblins?"
"Well, almost."
"Huh?"
Sophie didn't expect Liao Qi to really nod and admit it, and on the charming face of the demon goblin, his expression froze suddenly.
It seems that even the "omnipotent" academy...
Their use of herbs is still limited to the treatment of injuries.
After secretly taking Sofer's reaction into his eyes, the smile on the corner of Liao Qi's mouth became more and more raised.
The reason why he dared to boast of Haikou, without the help of the power of any other demon race, with the so-called "weak" human beings alone, could also crusade against the Goblin Cave, or even leave not a single one, and clear them all.
All kinds of enhanced potions are one of his strengths.
Human beings are born weak, we do not have fangs and claws, but it is precisely because we have nothing that we have infinite possibilities.
Don't underestimate...
Our thirst for power...
Tried again and again, tried again and again, and finally came together with a recipe record written on parchment.
The ability to defeat monsters with the body of a mortal and not rely on "talent" is the true meaning of the "Witcher" profession in the game.
And today...
Liao Qi is going to open this door in advance for this future legend, the young Lot.
"Well, I guess that's enough."
Under Liao Qi's command, Zero carried a cloth bag that was already full.
Ignoring Lot's miser-like, almost purple face with anger, Liao Qi exhaled a long breath, and then said slowly with a little smiling expression:
"So, what's next..."
"Let's go."
"Goblin Cavern's crusade, begin!"
