Chapter 488: A Chance Encounter on the Street (Ask for a Recommendation Ticket!Ask for a Monthly Pass!)
"Why don't you eat some?"
"The taste is too strong, I can't get used to it. ”
While chatting with Puu, Quest browsed the City of Entropy.
He had just paid the entrance fee to the city.
However, instead of using the Calamity Coins, he threw two pieces of leather from the six-armed snake demon to the Cambion Demon as payment.
"That's a pity, it's you guys today...... Those who do odd jobs, the few days that can be fed in the entropy city. ”
"Eaten, like him?" Quest glanced at a man lying down on the side of the street, "Then I'd rather bear with it." ”
Following Quest's gaze, the half-sheep man saw a man who was still and immovable, half-lying and half-leaning on the corner of the street.
His mouth was strangely black, like a bruise, and around his lips were a gathering of flies like bunches of raisins.
What was even more terrifying was that he raised his hand as if to wave the fly off his face, but that hand only twitched in the air and drew an arc.
It was as if that movement had long been forgotten and was only moving because of the repetitive paralysis or tremor in the muscles.
Quis could see that the man's wave was actually a gesture needed to cast some kind of spell.
Ingesting too much of the Pandico tree extract caused his mind to become impaired, and his casting gestures were severely deformed.
"Well, it's just that the casters have eaten too much, their physique is too poor, you're a warrior, you should ......"
“...... Learn self-discipline," Glancing at a half-sheep man, Puu, Quest said earnestly, "This is what a good warrior should do." ”
Quest is playing the role of a seasoned adventurer, and this partly sincere sentence adds a bit of authenticity to the character.
"Okay, okay...... The Pandico book cover has a calming and nerve-numbing effect, allowing the body to roam freely away from the brain. But you're right, it's poisonous: it starts with shaking, then paralysis, and finally death. ”
Although he behaves insanely in the eyes of others, when it comes to medicinal herbs, Puu always can't hide his professionalism.
And when talking to others about the efficacy of medicinal herbs, it may be out of the family sense of honor of the "Thousand Grass Cup", and he never disdains to lie.
"Very professional, I have a friend who is a witch doctor, and he has a very high level of dispensing potions, but you are still better in terms of pharmacology. ”
Hearing this compliment, the half-sheep man Pu Wu was obviously a little excited, no one in the Seal City had ever praised him so highly.
Because the object of praise has always been his uncle who can drink the demon hunting spider venom as a drink-Uli Chikusa Cup.
In this way, Puu became more enthusiastic, and he kept asking Quest if he had any potions from the witch doctor so that he could taste them.
It was really entangled, and the young blue dragon had to take out a little bit of the "energy ointment" he had used before, and handed it to him to study slowly.
As a result, this half-sheep herbalist could really distinguish most of the ingredients used in Palu's ointment just by smell.
After tasting a small piece with his mouth, he also came up with a new idea for improving the ointment!
However, for the "energy potion" made by Palu, Puu finally gave a very high evaluation.
"Very good, the raw materials are simple and cheap, but the effect is not shabby, hey, the level of that friend of yours, second only to me. ”
The half-sheep man was jumping up and down, looking very happy. He was even more sure that Quest was a knowledgeable guy.
"You're a master of herbs, why did the Doomsday Guardians arrange for you to sell tickets, isn't that overkill?"
Although Quiz had already guessed, he wanted to bury a thorn in Puu's heart, so he asked knowingly.
"Alas, friend, most of the people in the multiverse are not as knowledgeable as you, and most of them are dumbfounded. ”
After looking around, the half-sheep man continued to beep quietly: "Even some guys who call themselves old birds are like this. ”
He complained very carefully, but someone — a woman who scared Puu a little — heard him.
"Crazy sheep boy, what grievances can be said directly, the Doomsday Inquisition Hall is open to all brothers. ”
Suddenly, this voice was heard, and Puwu, the half-sheep man, jumped up from the spot in horror and jumped more than three feet.
This time, instead of opening his mouth to reply, he threw a well-behaved "I was wrong" look at the speaker.
"Hmph, the ...... of defeat"
"Take the stupid head you brought with you and send it to the shipyard at once. My birthday needs to be celebrated, but the cause of decay can't be stopped!"
Quis didn't really feel much resentment about being called "dumbhead", he was more curious about the "she" who spoke.
He couldn't imagine that the Soul Judge, who looked like a mixture of a wild boar and a giant ape, was a female.
"Captain Pant'......"
Puu wanted to explain, but the female Soul Demon seemed to have drunk too much alcohol and ignored the half-sheep.
The leader of the Doomsday Guardian picked up the liquor placed on the street and continued to pour it into his stomach as he walked down the street.
Quiz noticed that she didn't have a guard by her side.
Perhaps, as a soul judge, she is quite confident in her strength, but how much strength can she exert when she is drunk?
Perhaps, she wandered around the city to emulate the Lady of Pain who ruled the Seal City, though it seemed a bit of a conformity to do so.
Or perhaps she wanted to lure potential adversaries into attacking her, so that she could practice the community doctrine of "all things fall".
However, none of this has anything to do with Quest for the time being, at least if he doesn't want to kill the half-sheep apothecary now.
"Sorry friend...... Puu looked apologetically at Queth, "...... As a certain bard said, 'Men and rats, the most desirable arrangements are often accidental', and your visit must be suspended, and I will ......"
“...... It's okay, I understand," Quess reassured, "What's more, I'm also interested in shipyards and the cause of decay." ”
"If only you could understand. ”
"Fully understood. ”
With small talk and politeness, Puu, the half-sheep man, took Quis to turn left and right between the streets of Entropy City and came to the center of the city.
Contrary to what Quest had imagined, the core of this fortress of the Doomsday Guardians was not a castle or other structure.
A large factory is hidden in it.
"This is the shipyard," Puu pointed out to the young blue dragon, "and there are very few dockyards in the multiverse where the ship of chaos can be built. ”
Quess nodded.
At least half of the factory in front of me was hidden beneath the ground, and only the awning made of rune cloth was exposed.
And according to the magic aura he observed, the rune cloth on these awnings was obviously much higher than the other buildings in Entropy City.
In addition to the common "sturdy spells" and "spell protection", it is estimated that there are also some spells for counterattacking.
