The closest city to the Hongwu Empire in the Meien Empire, Fort Saider, different from the order of the Hongwu Empire's cities, is more like a large bandit den, although the population is not large, but all the people are soldiers, regardless of men, women and children are armed forces, Seidelberg is also a famous gray area on the border of the Meien Empire, the city is divided into territories by various forces, and even the city lord has no way.

An area in Fort Seidberg is occupied by a mercenary group known as the Wolverine, where a group of people sit around arguing about something.

"Navarro's team hasn't come back after half a month, boss, something must have happened to them, send another team to the Hongwu Empire to help them." ”

"No, transnational operations are already sensitive, and no one can protect us if they are discovered by the Hongwu Empire!"

"Are you afraid that Navarro will come back to take your place, the information brought back this time may be made a nobleman, and then he will be promoted to deputy head of the regiment, and you, the useless deputy commander, will have to give way. ”

"Hmph, don't put your dirty thoughts on me, I'm for the good of our mercenary group. ”

The hall is like a vegetable market, only a strong man about two meters tall leans on a chair and does not say a word, looking at the noisy people in this room, after a long time, the strong man spoke:

"Enough!" the voice was low, and the scene was instantly quiet enough to be heard, and everyone looked at the man.

"Send a team of people to the border, guard the border, even if you enter the territory of the Hongwu Empire, do not approach the city, search for Navarro's traces, and disperse. After that, the man escaped directly into the shadows, his figure disappeared, and everyone was silent for a while before they dispersed, this man is the wolverine, the leader of the mercenary group named after him, the strength is as high as the sixth order, and the strength of a city lord can be mixed in all countries, and it is also a powerful pillar of this mercenary group.

The Wolverine Mercenary Regiment is tasked with creating chaos around the Hongwu Empire and collecting information on the defense of various border cities, which is a mission issued by the Empire, with rich rewards and noble status, which is something that mercenaries from civilian backgrounds dream of.

Although the four major empires of mankind seem to be safe and sound, they don't know when they began to plant spies on each other to spy on intelligence, and this world is far from being as peaceful as it seems on the surface.

No matter what happened outside, anyway, Anne slept very happily this night, and the big bed produced by the system was so comfortable that it was no wonder that the guy always said that he was perfect.

Stretching her waist, Anne looked at the sunlight projected out of the window and felt happy, this is still his new window opened yesterday, it turned out that this room is as dark as the basement, Anne doesn't like it very much, and opened two large windows yesterday.

"Hmm~" Anne pouted like a cat and stretched her waist on the bed, the bed was so comfortable that he didn't want to get up at all, but his little maid was already knocking on the door to wake him up.

Rubbing her messy white hair, Anne got up from the bed, staggered to the door and opened the door, where Willow stood in a maid's outfit.

"Hmm...... Why did you get up so early?" Anne asked with a yawn, and Liu Ye rubbed her hands a little embarrassed: "Sister, there are no ingredients at home, and I don't know how to use those kitchen utensils......."

Anne remembered that the kitchenware she got from the system yesterday was all modern technology, and the only way to cook on this continent was steaming and grilling, so modern kitchenware was just a bunch of strange magic props for Willow Leaf.

Although there is no longer a need to eat to obtain energy as long as you go beyond the third order, the instinct of being a living creature allows humans to retain the habit of eating, so the ingredients have become a problem again.

"The nearest city is Rock City, and the nearest city on the side of the Meien Empire is about 400 miles. Anne looked at Willow Leaf with a stiff expression, he also knew Willow Leaf's identity, if the two of them went to Rock City, there would be a lot of trouble, Anne didn't like trouble very much.

"It's okay, sister, just hide your identity. Willow Leaf's expression returned naturally, Anne didn't say anything, she bought a black cloak from the mall and handed it to Willow Leaf, and after washing and dressing herself, the two walked out of the castle, and Anne carved a few defensive magic arrays around the castle and flew to Rock City with Willow Leaf.

The distance of more than 300 miles is not enough to see in front of An, it took less than 10 minutes to arrive in the forest outside Rock City, and the city gate of Rock City can already be seen.

Originally, Anne thought that this kind of costume would be indispensable for the interrogation of the city guards, but he saw Liu Ye touch a crystal pillar next to the city guards, the pillar lit up red, and the guards saluted and let them go.

The two walked into the city, and Anne leaned into Liu Ye's ear and asked, "What was that thing just now?"

"That is a measuring device for magicians, because magicians have difficulty cultivating, so their status is relatively high, at least they don't need to be checked when entering and leaving the city. Liu Ye also replied softly, and the two walked slowly on the lively street, Anne planned to sell an eighth-level crystal nucleus for money, and bartering was no longer popular among humans.

Checking the eighth-level crystal nucleus in her hand, Anne asked Liu Ye, "How much can this sell for?" Liu Ye thought for a while, shook his head and said:

"The eighth-level crystal nucleus has not appeared for a long time, and the strength and rarity of high-level demonic beasts have made the seventh-level and above-level demonic beast crystal nuclei already priceless, and I haven't heard my father mention these things before, but last time I heard the teacher say in school that a seventh-level crystal nucleus can be exchanged for more than 10 million gold coins. ”

"Is that so......." Anne dispelled the idea of selling this crystal nucleus, joke, such a rare thing is troublesome to sell, when the time comes, what kind of investigation, the robber will be as annoying as a fly, Anne hates troublesome things the most, and rummaged through the system mall, and found two healing potions and energy potions, one instantly recovers 50% and the other slowly recovers 100%.

"I should be able to exchange some money for this. Anne pondered in her heart and asked Xiang Liuye, "How about the price of the potion?"

"As for potions, because only magicians can become alchemists, they are very rare, and the worst-quality healing potions cost a silver coin per bottle, so alchemists are also one of the most valuable people. Liu Ye answered for Anne carefully, and the two of them also walked to the Rock City branch of the Beznath Chamber of Commerce, the largest chamber of commerce in the Ten Thousand Souls Continent.

The history of the Beznath Chamber of Commerce is more than 1,000 years, and there are branches in all cities in the human territory, and there are countless traveling merchants who have entered the territory of other races such as the orcs, it can be said that there is a shadow of this chamber of commerce in every place on the continent, this chamber of commerce has always been based on the principle of credibility and customer first, never failed transactions, never deceived customers, no matter who can be their trading partner, as long as there is money.

Anne said that she was very satisfied, this is much better than the merchants on the earth, many merchants on the earth will watch people cook, which makes him very annoying, and the two of them walked into the chamber of commerce in this way, and Anne exchanged each potion for a dozen in the mall, spending a total of 40 item points.

When the two stepped into the hall of the Chamber of Commerce, a waiter greeted them, there were a lot of people in the hall, basically piled up in front of a large screen of magic crystals, looking at the requests and purchase information on it, and the other part was queuing up at the purchase window to sell some things, and the two entered the Chamber of Commerce without attracting their attention.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" the waiter smiled and bowed slightly, and Anne nodded in her heart for the waiter's service attitude.

"We're going to sell some potions, high-grade potions. Liu Ye said lightly, Anne didn't make a sound, this was discussed by Anne and the two, anyway, Anne is also the master, and he wants to maintain a cold personality to the outside world, although this person almost completely collapsed in front of Liu Ye.

"Are the two adults alchemists?" the waiter's waist bent a little more, and the smile on his face became even thicker.

"Hmm. Liu Ye responded simply.

"Please come with me, two adults. The waiter led the two to the separate VIP reception room on the second floor, and another waiter brought a pot of hot tea to pour for them.

"Wait, two adults, I'll go and bring our steward. The two waiters turned and left the reception room.

Anne picked up the teacup and took a sip of the world's tea, which tasted similar to the dragon well on the earth, with a faint mint flavor.

There was a knock on the door, Liu Ye said "Please come in", and an old man in a gray robe walked in, the old man had a good complexion, his hair was white, his face was not wrinkled, and he couldn't tell his age, and he wore a pair of crystal glasses, giving people the impression that he was a very gentle scholar.

"Hello two, I'm Gu Chun, the alchemist of the Rock City Branch, what kind of potion do you want to sell?" Gu Chun's language was gentle, it felt very good, Anne didn't talk nonsense, she directly took out a bottle of instant recovery potion and a bottle of slow recovery potion and put them on the table, the bottle of instant recovery potion is in the shape of a test tube, the cap and the bottle body have golden patterns, and the slow recovery potion is a bottle in the shape of a water droplet, which also has a golden pattern, and both bottles of potions are bright blood red.

"This is ......" Gu Chun's eyes froze at the moment when Annie took out the potion, the person in front of him had space props, and his gaze was tightly locked on the two bottles, as a second-order alchemist, he could still see something, for example, the material of these two bottles should be the spirit sealing crystal, this kind of crystal with low yield is usually used to store valuable materials to prevent the loss of aura in it, and it is also a prop for storing high-level magic, and the value of this bottle alone is estimated to be 50 gold coins.

"This bottle is an instant recovery potion, which can be recovered instantly below a serious injury, and a serious injury can be restored to a minor injury, and it can be recovered to no danger to life, and the other bottle is a slow recovery potion, no matter how many injuries you have, as long as you don't die, you can save it, but the recovery time will change with the injury. Liu Ye said the lines that Annie gave her, and her tone was flat, completely ignoring Gu Chun's widening eyes.
