Chapter 404 Rare Alchemy Materials
Perhaps sensing that Andy and Olivia's purpose was himself, the old man's eyes that had not moved for a long time twitched slightly, and then his eyes rolled, as if looking at the position of Andy and the two, and there were some waves in the dark eyes of the abyss.
While the old man was looking at Andy and Olivia, Andy was also looking at him, this guy had a Western face, but there was not much hair left, and the hair that could be vaguely seen was also silvery.
The old fellow's eyes were deep-set, but the bridge of his nose was high, and he looked a little gloomy, not like a good person, but under the reflection of the candle flame, it seemed as if he was about to die, and the exposed skin on his face and hands was wrinkled, like dead bark, as if a handful of dead skin could be rubbed off by a gentle rubbing.
Although the old guy didn't look very powerful, Andy still felt a faint sense of danger in his body, and there was a terrifying and evil existence lurking in this thin body like a sick chicken.
This is an old guy with secrets, you know, in a way, alchemists may have access to more mysterious objects than wizards, and many alchemists are wizards and have incredible powers.
Many pirates could easily break the old guy's neck if they were to attack, but the trouble was what would happen if he broke his neck.
The curse of evil will be with us, and anyone who participates in or plots this murder will not escape the curse.
Being stared at by the old guy, Andy was a little uncomfortable, he twisted his neck uneasily, thinking of the eye of doom, it seemed that there was some curse, as long as he stared at someone for a long time, he could cast it.
"Little ghost, you're late, the apprentice has already left, if you want to trade, come back tomorrow. ”
The old man opened his mouth, and judging by the voice, it seemed that the guy relied on the friction of the laryngeal bones and the vertebrae to make sounds.
Andy looked behind the old man, the wooden door of the alchemist's shop was hidden, so he pulled Olivia, walked around the old man, and walked towards the shop.
"The door of the store is not closed, since there is a deal, why not do it?"
The old man's head twirled in the footsteps of Andy and Olivia, and with a few strokes of his withered fingers, he struggled to his feet, shook the dust off his clothes, and rattled with a chuckle.
"Quack, then I'd like to see what deal you have to make with me. ”
The old man walked slowly into the shop, and Andy and Olivia had been standing at the door without entering, after all, it was dark inside, and there was not even a candle.
After the old man walked in, he lit an oil lamp on the broken wooden table, and the small shop felt more warm, Andy and the two walked in, and Olivia looked and found that the windows of the shop were covered with black cloth, so she closed the wooden door and took off her black robe and hat.
"Oh~ you're a beautiful young lady. ”
When the old man saw Olivia's appearance, he nodded at her, looked at her carefully, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly.
"It looks like you're a Gypsy, and speaking of which, I settled in the Gypsy Empire for a while. ”
The old man's words surprised both Olivia and Andy, but they didn't think much of it, the characteristics of the gypsy were obvious, black hair, black eyes and white skin, and it was said to be a combination of East and West.
"What do you want? You know, very few people come to me to buy things, and the greedy pirates prefer to go to a few other alchemist shops where there are good wines and beautiful women...... Unlike here, after the apprentice left, it was just me, the old man, and Nancy. ”
The alchemist sat at the back of the counter and took down a black cat hanging on the wall from the wall, the black-haired eyes were glowing green, and the only eyeball kept moving, but what was creepy was that the rest of the cat's body was a white skeleton except for the head.
The alchemist slowly touched the black cat's head, and the kitten stuck out its tongue from time to time to lick the old man's hand, looking very docile.
"This is Nancy, my little pet, it's the cat that has seen death, and lo and behold, this is the proof. ”
The old alchemist gently patted the back of the black cat, which was already a white skeleton, and grinned.
Andy shuddered, there were several alchemist shops around the square, but there were a large number of pirates in front of the other shops, and those shops were also brightly lit, Andy didn't think that an alchemist shop should have this kind of atmosphere, so he chose this one.
But now it seems that this was a mistake.
"Okay, tell me, you don't enjoy each other's bodies in the room, what do you want when you come here to find me?"
The old man's eyes flashed with banter, and he said in a low voice, then placed the half-skeletal cat Nancy in his hand on the ground, and let the horrible creature scurry around the small shop.
Andy subconsciously glanced at Olivia, who looked at the old alchemist coldly, and didn't seem to like his low-level joke.
"If you want a long-lasting potion, go to a few other alchemist shops, I don't have that kind of low-level stuff here. ”
The old guy rubbed one hand against the old blurred glass counter, and the ugly smile echoed in Andy's ears again.
"Okay, let's get down to business, I need a lot of things, I just don't know if you have them here. ”
Andy interrupted the old alchemist's laughter and spoke.
The alchemist's eyes were fixed on Andy, who seemed to have some disdain in it, and he took out a colorless potion from the counter, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, and then frowned and stuffed it in.
"Tell me what you want. ”
"Deep-sea volcanic mud soaked in the blood of sea beasts. ”
"Yes, but it's expensive. ”
"The shell of a hundred-year-old sea turtle born when I was a child. ”
"Yes, it's expensive. ”
"A shimmering mushroom that grows in the dark abyss. ”
"Well, I'm curious you know this, but you're lucky that I just have a few here, and you'll have to pay for them. ”
The old alchemist was a little surprised, he had been sitting against the wall, but now he leaned forward slightly.
"The eggs of human-faced spiders living in inland swamps. ”
Andy looked at the dilapidated shop and continued to speak.
"Let me think about it...... Imp, let me think about it...... I should have this in my inventory, but I'm curious what kind of potions can I use to make these messes?"
The old alchemist leaned forward again, and he looked at Andy greedily, his eyes flashing with excitement.
"That's not what we're trading, Mr. Alchemist. Andy paused, smiled, and continued, "The ink of the king squid, the corpse of the moon jellyfish, and the venom of the green ring sea snake. ”
