Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Burning Town
Li Defu took off his headphones and looked at Su Xia with a surprised expression.
He also thought he had misheard, and asked again, "Brother Su, have you joined the pharmacy?" Aren't you an apprentice apothecary? ”
"Well, that's right."
"Is it Daddy's Apothecary?"
"That's right."
Su Xia nodded slightly, took out a piece of Yueli Yue from the biscuit box and chewed it slowly.
At this time, on his own computer screen, the "Evil Bubble" clone was in the pharmacy, his head down, motionless looking at the second-order poison "Ecstasy" formula in his hand.
Li Defu was shocked, and couldn't help but get up and ask, "Brother Su, how did you do it?" ”
"I went and asked, and the old man agreed to take the apprentice." Su Xia shrugged her shoulders, saying that she didn't know either.
"Huh?"
Hearing this answer, Li Defu was confused for a moment.
Is this kind of thing based on character?
"Oh, yes!" Su Xia seemed to suddenly think of something, "Before accepting me, my father said that I was very handsome and temperamental, which reminded him of himself when he was young." ”
"Huh? Can it still be like this? ”
Li Defu sat down blankly and rubbed his fat face.
It's really unreasonable, why is handsome and popular in the game world?
The rest of the roommates also took off their headphones and cast surprised glances at Su Xia.
The five game veterans didn't encounter a chance after shopping for a long time, but Su Xia, a newcomer, ran into it as soon as he went, is this the luck of the legendary newcomer?
Several people's moods were a little complicated.
But soon, the head of the room, Yuwen Shuxue, found a business opportunity: "Brother Su, can you make the lowest level healing potion now?" ”
"Yes."
"How much does a potion cost?"
"I want to think about ......"
The materials required for a primary healing potion are simple.
Except for that small piece of alien liver, the rest of the materials are quite cheap, and the price is fixed at Daddy's.
The cost of a primary medicine is actually about five yuan.
When Su Xia told several roommates about the price, several people were shocked and shouted in unison: "Damn, so cheap? ”
"Well, it's all ordinary material."
"Brother Su, do you know how much the primary healing potion is from the merchant?"
"How much?"
"Thirty in-game coins!" Li Defu hammered the table in pain, "The price at which those profiteers recycle the corpse of a monster is quite low, and the corpse of a mutant rat can only be sold for three coins!" We worked hard to kill the monster for most of the day, but we couldn't change a few blood return pills, and we were reluctant to use it under normal circumstances, and most of the time we sat on the ground and slowly regained blood. ”
"Hmm...... The price is indeed excessive. ”
Su Xia's mind moved slightly, although there was a possibility of failure every time he made a potion, it was not so much more expensive than the cost price.
The official website of the game has opened the exchange of real currency and game currency, which is a normal 1:10 ratio.
Beachburg's initial mission was to make money and then distribute the in-game currency to those who needed it at a better price.
But......
Now the conditions for clearing the land are too difficult.
The studio didn't have enough in-game currency for its own use.
"Brother Su, don't do anything now, you must improve your alchemy proficiency!" Yuwenshu said, "Don't care about the level, we will take you to upgrade later, you just lie down and eat titanium particles!" Your side profession is now the most important! ”
"That's right!" Li Defu also said, "We have a lot of old customers in our studio, and they have all entered the game, so we won't worry about sales when the time comes!" ”
The birth of a sub-profession directly changed the early positioning of the studio.
Several people were worried that Su Xia would not be satisfied, and said that they would definitely let Su Xia get the most share, and they would only earn some hard-earned money to promote customers.
Su Xia didn't have any opinion on this, and agreed on the spot.
After eating Yueliyue, he climbed back to his top bunk.
After all, it was uncomfortable to be separated by a computer screen, Su Xia thought about it, still closed the bed curtain, and then activated the bracelet and traveled directly to the past.
Anyway, if anything happens in this world, the bracelet will remind him.
The pharmacy was still quiet.
Wisps of strange medicinal smell lingered on the tip of the nose.
Su Xia took a few deep breaths, then cleaned up his workbench, preparing to try making healing potions and temporary psionic potions.
But at this moment, Daddy suddenly called the three of them over.
"Daddy has a task for you to do."
"Teacher, you say." As the oldest student, Hong Bafu stood at the front of the three and bowed his head respectfully.
"You send something to Stone Town."
Daddy picked up a small box from his feet and opened the box, which contained more than a dozen potions of different colors.
He patted the box and instructed, "This is what Pharmacist Luo of Stone Town asked me to make, you three brothers should run away, don't get lost." ”
"Yes, we'll deliver it."
Among the three, Hong Bafu has 1.8 level of spiritual energy, Lan Bafu has 1.6 level of spiritual energy, plus Su Xia, who is 0.1 on the surface, his combat power is not weak.
Stone Town is very close to Coral City, so there shouldn't be any surprises along the way.
The three of them said goodbye to their father and walked out of the pharmacy with the box in their arms.
They rode through the old town at a gentle pace, the night outside the window, most of the local residents had rested, and there were still some hard-working players working on the reconstruction mission, and the blurred lights flickered like fireflies on the ruins left by the war.
Everything looked calm and peaceful, as if the war was far away.
After leaving the main city, they switched to a rusty old coach.
In the car, there were only three of them except the driver.
The suburban roads are in tatters, weeds are growing in the crevasses, and many of the bombed craters are simply filled with mud, so the road is very bumpy.
Just as they were about to arrive at Stone Town, a flash of fire suddenly jumped into the eyes of the three of them.
"What's going on? How did Stone Town catch fire? Hong Bafu squinted his eyes and looked ahead.
"It's those wandering mercenaries!" The middle-aged driver's face changed, "I can't go any further, do you want to get off here?" Or go back with me? ”
"Wandering mercenaries?"
Su Xia was puzzled.
Stone Town is under the jurisdiction of Coral City, and it is very close to the main city of Coral City, how dare these wandering mercenaries?
Thinking of Master's entrustment, the three of them did not hesitate and got off the bus in the same place.
"Uncle, please wait for us in the distance." Hong Bafu took out two tickets and showed the driver his identity as a pharmacist.
Seeing this, the driver gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you in the back, don't make me wait too long." ”
The driver didn't dare to stay here, for fear of being targeted by those mercenaries, so he drove back a distance.
The three of them continued on their way towards Stone Town.
When they approached with the medicine box, a picture of purgatory on earth suddenly came into view.
Fire......
There was fire everywhere.
The whole Stone Town burned, and billowing smoke wafted through the night with a pungent smell.
The wails of the elderly, the screams of the women, the cries of the babies, all kinds of voices mingled in the flames, mixed with gunfire and arrogant laughter.
At the entrance to the town, a ragged woman cries in despair as she hugs her blood-and-blood child.
The three of them were about to step forward and ask a few words.
But suddenly, a laughing mercenary with a flamethrower sprang out from the other side, unleashing a blazing fire that instantly consumed the woman and her dead child.
There was a terrible cry of pain in the firelight.
