Volume 1: Chapter 69: The Last Piece of the Puzzle (1)

When Byer saw Jenny follow Mick into the office, he almost jumped for joy.

"Oh my God...... Jenny, it's really you, are you cured? It's amazing!"

Jenny was ruddy-faced, with a vigorous gait, and looked fully healthy, and although she looked at Mick with a strange gaze, the little episode did not attract any attention at all in the midst of great joy.

After a long time, in the midst of Bauer's incessant coughing, Bair remembered to thank Mick. He rushed up to Mick, so excited that he didn't know what to say.

Mick waved his hand, handed a bottle of red potion to Bayer, and said, "Don't be too happy yet, although Jenny's condition has been temporarily suppressed by me, the problem has not been completely solved, and I will need some time to research a complete solution, during which time if Jenny falls ill again, I will give her a drop of medicine." ”

"What?" Bair's face froze, "You're saying that Jenny's illness isn't completely healed, and she might still be able to leave us, isn't it?"

Mick nodded helplessly: "I'm sorry, but her problem is very special, it seems to be related to the bloodline, and I can't completely solve it for a while." But don't worry, as long as she has my potion, she will slowly get better, at least not in danger of her life. ”

Hearing that Jenny's illness was related to blood, Byrdon felt his heart again. In this interface, as long as it is related to blood, nothing is trivial.

But fortunately, Mick assured that Jenny would not worry about her life, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, took the potion handed by Mick, and carefully put it away.

Bauer opened the scene in front of him, sighed softly, walked up to Mick and said, "Mr. Beckman, I don't know how much your bottle of potion costs?"

Mick was stunned for a moment, and said casually: "About 20,000 gold coins, what's wrong?"

"Twenty thousand gold coins?!" Bair and Jenny exclaimed at the same time, their eyes widening in disbelief as they looked at Mick.

Bauer's face sank, and he asked again, "Then ......how much does it cost for Jenny's treatment?"

Mick waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's just a gesture, what kind of expense." ”

Bauer shook his head and said, "There is also a cost to the treatment, you can do it without charge, but I would like to know how much the cost is?"

Mick was stunned again, thought for a while and said: "It's the use of some precious magic materials, just tens of thousands of gold coins, I haven't calculated the specifics, and it's hard to say for a while." ”

"Tens of thousands of gold coins?" Baier gasped, and a cold sweat gradually flowed from his forehead.

"That's right, Mr. Beckman, Byer has spent all his savings before seeing Jenny, and I, a bachelor, have nothing to worry about, and although I have been with Maltis for many years, I have not been able to save much money, so these expenses are ......"

Mick laughed, "Oh, so you're worried about this. It's okay, I didn't plan on asking you to pay for it. ”

"Mick......" Mick was saying as Karl, who had been standing behind him, suddenly walked up to him and smiled apologetically at the Bayers.

Then he lowered his voice and said to Mick: "Our money has been invested in several new projects, and there are still a batch of magic raw materials to be purchased, and it will be very difficult without these tens of thousands of gold coins......"

Bair and Bauer stood close together, and they were eavesdropping with their ears pricked up, so that although Carl spoke quietly, they still roughly understood what he meant.

The two glanced at each other, and there was a deep sense of guilt and helplessness in their hearts.

Byer opened his mouth to say something, but a penny was too hard for the hero, and the empty money bag still made him shut up.

Mick shook his head at Carl, interrupting his rambling, looking back at the two of them, and smiling, "Uh...... Several of the works at the launch will require some investment to be mass-produced......"

"Rest assured, we will go and raise money as soon as possible. It's a lot of money, but it's not impossible, and we appreciate that you saved Jenny, and we won't make it difficult for you again. Bauer said firmly.

Mick shook his head and said, "Mr. Bauer, you misunderstood. I mean, I've been a little tight lately, but it's over that and you don't have to worry about money. ”

"No!" said Beyer, "it is a great favor to save Jenny, and we must not let you lose money again." ”

"Bayer......" A trace of solemnity suddenly appeared on Mick's face: "Aren't you worth these tens of thousands of gold coins?"

"Me?" Byer pointed to his nose, not knowing what Mick was trying to say.

Mick nodded: "It's you, in fact, when I first met you, I admired your heroic deeds very much and wanted to make friends with you, but you didn't think much of me." ”

Hearing Mick talk about the past, Byer blushed. When he first came to Maltisse, he really looked down on the other people at work, thinking that they were just good families, so he ignored everyone.

But as time went by, he found that even in terms of ability, he was not outstanding among several people, which made him very annoyed and inferior, and he became more closed.

Thinking about the sensation Mick caused today, and his achievements in the field of alchemy, he is far from being comparable to his so-called combat hero, but I didn't expect that unconsciously, he would be a frog at the bottom of the well.

Bair smiled bitterly, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Mick seemed to see his embarrassment, and hurriedly smiled: "Bayer, I really want to make friends with you, friends should help each other, it's just a few tens of thousands of gold coins, what's it?"

"Really?" said Beyer, staring into Mick's eyes in disbelief, "You're still willing to be friends with me......?"

"Identity?" Mick laughed: "What identity do I have? I'm just a small nobleman from the north, and I have a little talent in the field of alchemy, can I still be superior?"

Byer, you have crawled back from the bloody storm on the battlefield, and you must not look down on yourself at any time. ”

"Mick......" Mick's words really spoke to Bayer's heart, he stomped his foot, gave Mick a big bear hug, and said loudly: "As long as you don't dislike it, from today on, you are my Bayer's best friend, no, the best brother!"

Mick smiled again, only this time with a hint of triumph in his smile.

After seeing off the Byers, Alexander came out of the office, sat down in Mick's chair, and said with a smile, "Well, congratulations on getting the last piece of the puzzle." ”

Mick shook his head: "I've only got a part of the last piece of the puzzle, by the way, can you arrange a position for Bayer in the military department? ”

Alexander thought for a moment and nodded, "There is nothing wrong with a position, but ...... Mick, I have to warn you once again that what you get by conspiracy is not that reliable after all, you have to think clearly. ”

Mick smiled bitterly, "I know, but I don't have a choice......"

Alexander sighed softly and shook his head helplessly.
