Chapter Twenty-Six: Tumbling Alley

Unbeknownst to everyone, the fear in the eyes of the man they had left behind slowly turned to hatred, his distorted face like a devouring viper, and the color of his pupils changing in the darkness......

At 56 York Street, a gathering place for members of the Order of the Phoenix, the Contractor team sat around a stone table, and after a day of fright, several people had recovered and were immersed in the joy of completing their mission.

Li Oran closed his eyes, recalling the scene in the cave, and couldn't help but be afraid for a while, blaming himself for being too impulsive.

At that time, if he hadn't accidentally fallen into that strange passage, he would have almost died, even if he turned on the special skill Giant Bear Transformation, it would have been the same result.

"Lore ......"

Someone was faintly shouting his name.

Li Oran opened his eyes, saw everyone looking at him, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

Hanks asked with some restraint, "What are we going to do next?" ”

"Just wait, Tonks should still come to post the mission, I'll go rest first."

Li may be interested, he plans to go out alone tomorrow, by the way, to go to that place, to buy something special, which is very important for his follow-up plan.

Of course, he didn't bring anyone else with him, except for Lilith, who was already in partnership.

Hanks was stunned and shrugged helplessly, he originally wanted to ask Lilith, after all, her strength is obvious to all, but Lilith has repeatedly stated that she only listens to Lore.

"Hey, let's be honest."

Anyway, the main quest is a must-do, just follow Lore and Lilith when the time comes, Hanks thought a little scoundrel.

Nothing happened all night......

Early in the morning, Li Oran stretched his waist and looked at the wall clock on the wall, which showed 9 o'clock, his eyes searched in the living room, and finally found the fireplace in the corner.

Walking to the fireplace, he grabbed a handful of Floo powder, and under the gaze of the rest of the people, he called out an address:

"Tumbledown Alley."

In an instant, he seemed to start a space shuttle, and after about four or five seconds, a store with a dark-style decoration appeared in front of him.

Li Oran patted the ashes on his body, and looked up to see a shriveled human hand in a glass box, a pair of bloodstained playing cards, and a mask with a terrifying expression hanging on the wall.

On the cabinet hung a sign of the store, "Boginbock Magic Store, yes, this is it." ”

Li Oran judged this place at a glance based on the memory in his brain.

This time, he didn't even look at the room full of dark magic items, and went directly to the counter, his fingers tapped on the tabletop, making a "tuk-tuk" sound.

It wasn't long before a thin man with his back hunched came out, grinned and asked:

"Dear customer, it is my pleasure to serve you, what do you need?"

Li Oran was startled by his grim smile, and suddenly felt a chill in the back of his head.

"Ahem...... I need two servings of the compound decoction. ”

"Oh, the magical transformation potion, we do have some stock in stock." The wizened man turned and rummaged through a cupboard.

The cabinet was moving from side to side like a living thing, and the open door was like a mouth to swallow a person in.

Li Oran calmed down and stopped looking around, "What a dangerous place!" ”

He regretted that he shouldn't have come alone, that he underestimated this magical world, that it was more complicated than he remembered, and that what he was doing now was completely beyond the plot.

"Hehe, two compound decoctions cost a total of 80 gold gallons." The thin man put the two glass bottles on the table and looked at Li Oran with an evil smile, like looking at a sheep to be slaughtered.

"80 gold Galleons!"

Li Oran secretly said in his heart that it was not good, the body he crossed was only 50 gold galleons in bits and pieces.

"What should I do, I can't sell my wand...... By the way, that thing might be sold. ”

He pretended to be calm and took out a demon crystal from his arms and put it on the table, "I want to sell this stone, how much can your store pay?" ”

The thin man's eyes lit up, and his severely deformed hands picked up the demon spar and examined it carefully.

"Something magical, I see that there is a power in it that is different from magic......"

"Dear customer, I am willing to bid 3 gold gallons for purchase." The eagerness in the thin man's eyes flashed, and was captured by Li Oran.

"Five gold gallons," Li Oran gestured with his hand, and then added, "I'm sure other magic shops should be happy to collect this thing, you say?" ”

The thin man's face was gloomy, and after a while, he said with a painful face:

"Well, who made me like this thing too much."

Li Oran's hanging heart fell, and when he took out the 5 demon crystals again, he caught a glimpse of the clerk with a wicked smile in his afterglow.

"Bastard, the acting is really good," he knew that he might still be cheated, but there was no way, the compound potion was too important, the hedron was gone, and it could be earned again, the opportunity was fleeting, and there would be no more after missing this scene.

After throwing all the gold gallons on his body and the 5 demon crystals on the counter, he picked up the two bottles of compound decoction with a dark face and left without looking back.

"Hey, hey, welcome customers next time!"

The thin man walked to the door with a smile and bowed deeply.

The alley was dimly lit, and in the winding alleys stood wizards in twos and threes, staring at the passers-by with malicious eyes.

Seeing that they were slowly surrounding him, Li Oran pulled out the Demon Shadow Sword with a "bang", and stood there motionless looking at the evil wizards who wanted to do wrong.

His resolute eyes made the wicked hesitate to stop, as if judging whether it was worth it or not.

"Humph!"

Li Oran snorted coldly and turned his head to leave, and when those people hesitated, his momentum prevailed, and the danger disappeared.

When you encounter evil, you should be more evil than him, countering violence with violence, and fighting poison with poison is often the most effective means.

I didn't go far before a bustling and busy street suddenly appeared.

"Diagon Alley, I'm coming."

The feeling of being there is completely different from the scene in my memory, everything is vivid and real.

"Blotted Bookstore, go in and see ......"

Li may have plunged headlong into the famous second-hand book store in the wizarding world, at this time, it is not the preparation time before the start of school, and the bookstore has only a few customers.

He looked at the dazzling array of books and suddenly had a strange thought, "Can I learn magic too?" ”

This thought instantly occupied his brain, and Li Oran immediately pulled out a tattered magic book from the pile of old books.

"The Elementary Transfiguration Guide, Transfiguration?" Li Oran couldn't wait to look at it, took out the original owner's wand and gestured.

After sweating profusely for half an hour, he gasped and dropped the book in his hand, "Give up, it's terrible, I didn't react at all." ”

Come to think of it, how could the Origin Space leave such a loophole for itself to drill?

After letting go of the idea that he would become stronger overnight, he planned to go shopping on the streets again.

"Smack......

At this moment, a black book fell in front of him, a gust of wind blew, and the pages were turned open, and the dense text looked dizzy.

When Li Oran had just stepped over the book, a prompt came from the space:

"Detected that Contractor 08 has learned Magic Potions and Potions, activates a special energy-saving [Potion Fusion], and activates 1% of the activation progress."

"What's going on?" Confused, he crouched down, picked up the potions book, and looked back in disbelief.

Activation Progress2%......

Activation Progress: 3% ......

Only then did Li Oran come to his senses, and the skill mentioned in the original prompt was true, which means that as long as the progress reaches 100%, he will have this special skill of [Elixir Fusion].

"The emperor lives up to his wishes, now he has picked up a big bargain!"

He sat on the ground and studied the knowledge in the book with all his heart, never before was he so hungry for knowledge as he was now.

Soon, after reading the book in his hand, the progress was stuck at 30%, and he eagerly found a copy of "Advanced Potion Making" in the old book, and once again studied tirelessly.

The guests passing by looked at Li Oran with a curious expression, and for a whole day, he kept a movement, surrounded by books, like a bookworm who was obsessed.

Li Oran was devouring the potions in the book, of course he was not really reading the book, everything was just to activate the progress.

"It's almost over, after reading this one, it should be enough." The long hours of concentration made his eyes red, but the excitement on his face was palpable.

99% of the activation progress......

Activation progress 100%......

"Done!"

He dropped the book, swore in his heart that he would not read for at least a year, and then couldn't wait to sink his mind into space.

"Contractor 08 successfully learned the special skill [Elixir Fusion LV1]."

[Elixir Fusion LV1]:

Fusion of special herbs or poisons has a 90% chance of fusing a potion that has no effect, a 7% chance of fusing a green potion, and a 3% chance of fusing a blue potion. This ability can only be used in spatial scenes.

Li Oran looked at this skill with shortness of breath, and exclaimed in his heart:

"Blue items! It's just that the odds are too low, but if the materials are sufficient, you can try it many times, and you can also upgrade and make a lot of money! ”

He quickly understood the power of this skill, and if he used it well, he might be an important backhand.

Li Oran stood up contentedly, almost fell down, and after a whole day of squatting, his legs were already paralyzed.

Limped to the fireplace of the Blotted Bookstore, at this point, he completely lost interest in the lively street outside, and only wanted to go back to rest.

Grabbing a handful of Floo powder, he whispered, "56 York Street."

With a "brush", his eyes turned into a familiar living room, and the other contractors looked at him in amazement.
