Chapter 194: The Plan to Leave
"Mr. Benjamin, is someone after us, and we have to run away again?"
Everyone was crammed into a small inn room, and more than twenty mages looked at Benjamin with different expressions. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Flender scratched his head, a little puzzled.
Benjamin shook his head and smiled, reassuring the uneasy-looking mages.
"You're worrying too much, no one is chasing us. I gathered everyone together because I got an introductory book to Potions and wanted to see if anyone would be interested in delving into it. ”
Potions has grown to such an extent that even if Benjamin doesn't learn it himself, he can't just ignore it. It was true that the potion was a foreign object, but even if he was confident that he didn't need it, the mages on the team would need it.
If you want to gain a foothold in the mage world abroad, this is a very important part.
Therefore, it is actually necessary to train a few potion mages in the team. Not every one of these twenty or so people has considerable fighting talent, and one more path is also good for them.
"Potions, the kind of science that can make expensive potions out of strange materials?" seems to be heavily regulated. As a former businessman, Wallis really caught the point at once, "If we can make potions for sale, the wealth we will gain will be immeasurable!"
Hearing this, Benjamin also nodded.
It seems that within a few days of entering Ikor, these mages in the team have not been idle, and they have inquired a lot about potions-related knowledge. As soon as Benjamin said this, they reacted immediately.
In fact, potions can give them more than just money.
According to the book, potions are an industry that is always in short supply. Therefore, if they can produce potions in large quantities, it will be very significant for their status. Government agencies, non-governmental organizations, mercenary groups...... The big names will come to mingle with them, and the status of their group of foreign mages will also rise.
Of course, this is just Benjamin's imagination. It is also written in the book that there is a threshold for learning potions, and not every mage can become a potion mage. It doesn't require any amazing magical talent, but it does require extremely keen mental power to grasp the changes in the elements in the refining of the potion.
Benjamin also didn't know if any of his more than twenty mages had such special talents.
"This is the introduction to Potions, you can read it and circulate it yourself, but be careful not to let anyone outside see it, let alone the Mage Guild to hear that we have a book on learning potions here. Thinking so, he took out the book and handed it to the nearest mage, and instructed with great solemnity.
A monopoly like the Mage Guild may be able to tolerate some wild potion mages, but it will certainly not allow another group of mages capable of making potions to emerge in the country.
Therefore, this kind of thing, they have to do it secretly.
"And these, some simple potions-making materials and tools, I have them here. If any of you are interested after reading it, you can ask me for it. As he spoke, Benjamin gestured to his bulging backpack.
Before the meeting, he secretly went to the old man's shop again, and bought some materials and utensils according to the recipe in the book to prepare for the current situation.
To his surprise, these things were quite cheap, and he couldn't even fit them himself with the gold coins he had stolen from Dick. Combined with the high price of potions, Benjamin also realized what a lucrative industry it was.
How could they not get involved?
Under Benjamin's introduction, all the mages also took the "Introduction to Potions" and gathered together curiously.
"It seems interesting, can I read this book first?"
"Forget it, sitting in my room all day and dealing with those things, I feel like I can't sit still, so let you study it. ”
"I'll watch it for the second time, you hurry up and finish reading, I want to try it too......"
After the battle of the gate, the mages now seem to have become more organized. Since there was only one book, they quickly decided on the order in which they would circulate it, and how long everyone who got it could read it, in such a way that everyone who was interested would have the opportunity to read it.
Looking at this orderly appearance, Benjamin also smiled and nodded.
- Fortunately, he didn't have to worry about the way the book was circulated.
After thinking about it, and when the discussion subsided, he told everyone another thing.
"As for what we're going to do next...... he said slowly, "there's all the signs that Ikor won't be at peace lately, so we'd better get out of here sooner." The border is not allowed to pass through at will for the time being, so I plan to go to the border between Ikor and Fredon first, observe where the defenses are weaker, and then we will fly over. ”
Although he had already told them that he would leave Ikor before, Benjamin did not know if they could accept it if they would leave in a short period of time or by forcibly crossing the border.
However, he soon found that he was overthinking.
I saw the proprietress roll up her sleeves, revealing a gangster, and said bluntly: "When are we leaving?"
The others were the same, looking at Benjamin with serious expressions on their faces, but no one hesitated or questioned.
Suddenly, Benjamin suddenly realized.
He didn't have to worry about them. Everyone is the one who ran away from home and fled to the border in a search along the way. They yearn for a settled life, and they seem to have no heart and lungs every day, but once something happens, their decisiveness is also incomparable to others.
In a way, they're a bunch of outlaws.
Thinking of this, Benjamin still feels a little ...... Proud to be the leader of a group of outlaws, perhaps, he is also an arbitrary outlaw in his bones.
Therefore, with the smile that an outlaw boss should have, he cleared his throat and spoke:
"Everyone, get ready, we'll leave tonight. ”
Everyone nodded, and no one objected.
And just like that, the secret meeting crammed into the hotel room came to an end. Time is tight, and they also have to prepare for the next things, it is time to learn potions, learn potions, and pack their bags.
Of course, there were also people who suddenly reacted and asked questions, saying that there are still many people who can't fly, how to fly across the border. Benjamin smiled and told them that those who couldn't fly over could "roll" all the way through his pillar of steam, like last time.
As soon as this remark came out, the remaining mages swore that they would definitely learn the art of flying before reaching the border.
Benjamin smiled reassuringly.
After arranging everything on the team's side, he did not sit idle, but left the hotel alone.
-- He still has a little thing to deal with.
"Moore's Little Magic Shop", Benjamin thought that the old man seemed to be very powerful, and at the same time helped himself a lot. Therefore, before leaving, he went over to visit and told the old man that he was ready to leave. The old man was still the same, waving his hand impatiently, indicating that you are going to go wherever you fall in love.
Benjamin shook his head and reluctantly left the shop.
Back at the inn, in addition to the old man in Hank's Town, the two mages from the Mage Guild were still living here. Therefore, Benjamin had to deal with them and not let them find themselves leaving today.
There is no way, the intentions of the Mage Guild are very mysterious, and Benjamin has to make himself a little more mysterious in the Mage Guild.
Therefore, before the night came, he took a few of the stronger mages in his team, and with sincere smiles and suspicious intentions, knocked on the doors of the two mages.
