Happy New Year to all!

－－

The spring color of Wuyuan is late, and the weeping poplars are not hung in February. Today, the ice on the riverside is open, and it is the time when the flowers of Chang'an fall.

In someone's previous life, there was a poem that said this.

In some places, when the development of two potions was still painstakingly and there was a great headache, in some places, the finished products were already produced, and the developed potions were divided into three, six, nine and so on very quickly, according to the different materials used.

The Western Continent, the Holy Alliance Empire.

Strictly speaking, this is an organization similar to the United Nations, which is made up of many empires of all sizes, but at the same time, there is a large empire that serves as its headquarters.

What I want to talk about here is the headquarters of the empire located at the headquarters, the headquarters of the Temple of the Goddess of Life, which is also located here.

Imperial capital, Grand Square.

It's actually similar to someone's previous life, but in terms of area, it's too much bigger. On this day, the wind and the sun were beautiful, and in this extremely large square, in addition to the usual wanderers, many warriors and magicians came.

Magicians are at least mages or above, and martial artists are almost all sixth-level martial artists, and they can't even seem to be found at level five.

Such a group of people, the aura is so powerful that you can imagine, many little warriors and little magicians walking in the square are almost scared to pee, those who talk stop talking, those who walk stop walking, as for those who are doing some small martial arts and spells, they are silent, and they don't dare to move again.

In short, the huge square fell into absolute silence for a while.

But the comer paid no attention to this. Heading towards the center of the square.

The silence before was just a sudden reaction to see the normal reaction of this group of boss-level characters. Originally, a boss is rare. Now there is a large crowd, and there are hundreds, and everyone is stunned, and it is reasonable for everyone to be silent.

Still, the absolute silence quickly dissipated, but it remained a kind of condensation.

There are also many bold guys, far away, as if unintentionally, following this group of boss-level characters. Head to the center of the square. One by one, when this kind of behavior was not prohibited, the crowd of onlookers gradually formed a kind of tide.

Of course, it is still far away and sparse, and it is not too rampant and blatant.

When they arrived at the center of the square, the group of warriors quickly dispersed, not knowing what formation to follow. Orderly take their places, while at the same time, only the sound of footsteps is heard, from a distance. On the periphery of the square, more warriors came here.

These warriors were in groups of four or eight or sixteen. Each group worked together to carry a stone slab. The smallest stone slab carried by the four people was about one person high. It is about the same width as a door panel, and more than half a meter thick in thickness.

The other eight and sixteen carried the slabs. It's almost an equal magnification.

Coming to the place where the warriors were standing just now, these stone slabs were lowered in turn, and then all the mages started to carve these stone slabs with their hands, or rather, their thoughts.

For a while, I saw stone chips falling like snow.

Soon, almost half a magic hour or so, these mages silently withdrew under the attention of many eyes, leaving only those warriors still here.

The mage is gone, even if there are still a large number of sixth-level martial artists, the atmosphere in the square is much more relaxed, and there are many people who know the people among these martial artists, and at this time, they have to come forward to inquire one after another.

More often than not, they approached the slate and looked at it carefully.

The front and back of the slate are depicted in an extremely detailed and clear way, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as "lifelike" except that there is no color.

"It's ...... Soon, a man muttered, first with a little bit of confidence, but when he turned to the back of the slate, and saw the more detailed and other forms of the drawing, he immediately settled down, and said proudly and quite loudly, "Yes, this is the silk grass!"

At the same time, there were many people who recognized some of the other drawings.

"This is a bitter gourd vine!"

"Big brother, look, there is even wild boar grass, hehe, it's really like!"

"I've seen this thing, but I don't know what it's called. Something like that, more.

"I think I've seen this thing, but I don't know if it's or not. There are even more statements like this, ten times more than the above.

However, compared with the nearly 1,000 stone slabs in the field, the number of recognizable pictures, whether they are known, seen, or suspected to have been seen, is so rare that it seems that there are not even a hundred kinds. -- This is actually quite normal, for many people, if you don't pay special attention to something, then even if you see it, you may not leave an impression.

Unless you see it often, or if the thing itself is distinctive.

"Your Excellency, may I ask what is going on?" At this time, someone asked the warriors who remained next to the stone slab.

"Good thing. The warrior smiled and said, "These are all herbs." If you know these herbs, and then take them with you, no matter how many there are, and bring them to the City Lord's Mansion, you can change the potion. ”

"Potion, what potion, is it a healing?" the man asked. At the moment in the mainland, for most people, when it comes to medicine, the first reaction in their minds is the medicine to heal injuries, which is also the most common.

"No, it's used to assist in cultivation. The warrior shook his head and said.

"Storm Bear Elixir like that?" asked another person on the side, looking very excited.

"No, it's not the same as the Storm Bear Elixir, this one directly speeds up the cultivation. ”

"Directly speed up cultivation?" Some of the onlookers asked suspiciously, looking incomprehensible, "Dude, can you please tell me more about what it means to speed up cultivation?"

"It's just that if you take this medicine and cultivate for a day, you can get a few days better than before. ”

As soon as you say that, everyone understands.

Because of this, everyone who heard this from far and near all around suddenly boiled.

"Isn't it?"

"Impossible, right?"

"Your Excellency, I heard you right, and this potion?"

"Your Excellency, what you said is true?"

This martial artist, in just a few tens of breaths, was surrounded by at least ten times more people than just now, many of them were magicians who came over with the wind, and then an old magician of the eighth or ninth level opened his mouth and asked: "Your Excellency, what you just said, the potion to speed up cultivation, is it used by martial artists, or is it used by magicians?"

"Both!" the warrior clenched his fists, then glanced around and shouted to the old magician and the others around him.

Then, there are all kinds of inquiries around.

Among them, one of the most asked was, "Is this true?" and the other was, "Is it true that as long as you bring these herbs, you can go to the City Lord's Mansion to exchange for potions?"

The answer is yes.

And then all of a sudden, the people under this slate went crazy.

This is not only the case under this stone slab, but also in the square, around nearly a thousand stone slabs, all the same, before and after, countless boiling and hustle and bustle, like wave after wave of tide, swept over the main square.

And as time went on, there were more and more people in the square.

Many of them came in a hurry when they smelled the "smell" or got the news, and at the same time, after repeatedly confirming the news, many people rushed away from the original crowd in the square.

I didn't even ask for a day, just in the afternoon, in front of the city lord's mansion, there was an old man who walked with a big wooden basket on his back, and the pace was slightly faster, which obviously showed that his person was not very down-to-earth.

This is quite rare for a ninth-level magician.

"Ladies and gentlemen, is this the place to collect herbs?" In fact, far away, the old magician saw the sign of "Herb Collection", but when he got closer, he still asked politely, and at the same time put down the wooden basket behind him, and the basket was full of herbs.

"Hello, Your Excellency, exactly. Please sit down for a moment. "This person is also a magician, but only level six. At the same time, two of the dozen or so people on the side stood up and began to count the herbs brought by the old man one by one.

The movements of the two are quite fast and extremely skillful.

After only making an appointment for tea, the sixth-level magician who received the master said, "Your Excellency, the herbs you brought are divided into three categories, one hundred and three low-grade herbs, twenty-two middle-grade herbs, and three high-grade herbs, which type of potion do you want to change?"

"Are there many kinds?" asked the old magician.

"In fact, there are only two kinds, which are suitable for martial artists and magicians, but each one is the same as herbs, it is also divided into three levels, a low-level herb can be exchanged for a low-level pill, and then the intermediate and high-level ones are all one-to-one. How do you want to change it?"

The old magician only thought for a moment, and then said, "Then replace the herbs I brought with the same amount of corresponding potions." ”

"Okay. ”

Soon, the old magician left with 103 low-grade pills, 22 middle-grade pills, and 3 high-grade pills in anticipation.

At this time, the old magician didn't know that this night, he would be sleepless all night, and he didn't know that after this night, his entire fate would be completely changed. (To be continued.) )
