Chapter 75: Extraordinary Characteristics Are Indestructible
"What? 800 pounds? ”
Rao is Angel was mentally prepared to be opened by the lion, but when Dominic quoted the price, she still couldn't hold back her pretending to be serious.
"Do you know how much the 'Instigator''s potion sells for? The recipe is up to 200 pounds, and the two main ingredients are only 400 pounds in total, so I'll find an ordinary person to pour potions into him and let him die out of control, and pick up an extraordinary trait that is cheaper than what you sell! ”
Angel had kept her voice as low as she could, but there were still many passers-by looking towards the corner of the room, both of them cloaked and whispering sneakily, even in the mixed underground market, not like serious businessmen.
Dominic scoffed and retorted unceremoniously:
"What nonsense are you talking about, the Sequence 8 potion can be taken for only 600 pounds? The recipe alone costs more than 400 pounds! Even if you can buy potions, you will only get the extraordinary properties of being tainted according to the way you go, and you wouldn't be stupid enough to make magical items with this kind of thing, right? Do you dare to use that kind of contaminated magical item? ”
Resisting the urge to take out the contaminated magical item "Thirst for Blood" and open a few holes in his body, Angel took a deep breath, calmed down, and shook his head.
"So how do you make sure that your extraordinary properties are not tainted? And in any case, 800 pounds is too expensive, I can only pay 400 pounds at most. ”
Anyway, let's cut the price in half first......
"Pollution? Absolutely not, this is what I watched from the dead 'instigator', who was very talkative when he was alive, and almost injured me, and he didn't look like he was about to get out of control......"
Dominic said as he pulled out a palm-sized box of delicate jewelry from under his cloak and lifted the lid towards Angel.
There is an object shaped like a thin funnel, about the size of an adult's thumb, and when you look closely, you will find that it is the beak of a bird, the surface is purple, with a little dark red, and it constantly changes two colors under the light, exuding an aura of temptation to snatch, staring for a few seconds, Angel suddenly noticed that the bird's beak moved.
That's right...... It was very similar in appearance to the main ingredient of the "Instigator Potion" she remembered, and it showed obvious activation characteristics, and there were no whispers or hallucinations when she approached it......
With a "snap", Dominic closed the lid.
"You see, if it's an extraordinary property that has been polluted, how can it be so quiet for you to watch? I almost lost my life to get it.8... £700, no price reduction. ”
Haven't you already lowered the price...... Angel was overjoyed, it seemed that the other party was not as tough as he said.
She decided to add another fire.
"Wait, you mean, it's an extraordinary trait you got when you killed an 'instigator'?"
Looking at Angel with a surprised face, Dominic smiled slightly smugly.
"Of course, do you think that extraordinary traits can be picked up anywhere, and if I don't kill them, will he cut them out for me himself?"
Ignoring the heart-wrenching attitude and tone of the other party's words, Angel's eyes widened contrivedly, and his expression asked with a hint of panic: "Isn't there someone from the 'Witch Sect' who has come to trouble you?" If you kill their man, and you still sell his extraordinary properties here, you are not afraid ......"
"Witch Sect?"
As she expected, when she heard the name of this notorious cult, Dominic's expression changed, and he didn't have time to listen to Angel's words, so he asked anxiously.
"That's right, they have mastered the potion recipe and most of the materials of the 'Assassin' path, except for a few wild extraordinaries like me, most of the extraordinaries of this path are inextricably related to them, and this 'instigator' you killed is likely to be a member of the 'Witch Sect'."
The expression on Dominic's face kept changing, and he suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Are you deceiving me, trying to make me drop the price and get rid of the extraordinary characteristics?" ”
His confidence is obviously insufficient, as if he is convincing himself.
Maybe what did the "instigator" say before he died, so that Dominic would easily believe that he would be troubled by the "witch sect"?
Seeing that the other party had already entered the set, Angel didn't let him have time to think carefully, and quickly gave a fatal blow:
"No matter what you think, I don't dare to ask for this extraordinary trait anyway, the 'Witch Sect' is an expert in divination, and it is only a matter of time before you find it through extraordinary traits, I suggest you make up another lie and sell it quickly."
After saying this, Angel turned around and left.
One step, two steps, three steps.
The expected retention did not come.
Could it be that his performance is too exaggerated, which makes the other side rebellious?
Angel walked towards the staircase step by step, pricking up her ears and listening to the voice behind her, but she didn't hear Dominic's voice except for the conversation of buying and selling.
The long-awaited shout finally came as she passed between the two guards guarding the entrance to the third floor, one foot already down the stairs.
"Wait...... Wait a minute. ”
She still took a few steps forward, pretending not to hear.
"Wait!"
Dominic hurried up, squeezed past the guard, and stepped up several steps to stop Angel in front of Angel.
"500 pounds!"
Bet won!
Angel shook his head quietly: "I said, it's too dangerous to hold this extraordinary trait, if they think it's me......"
"450 pounds, I'd rather throw it away if it's lower......"
Dominic said through gritted teeth.
——————
Sitting in the hired carriage and watching the "Scavenger Bar" sign fade away from the window, Angel covered the bullet box in his pocket with a smile on his face.
Winning the extraordinary trait of "Instigator" for a low price of 400 pounds, although it emptied all the gold pounds in her pocket, also made her only one step away from promotion to Sequence 8.
Dominic finally succumbed to her coaxing, but of course, he was still a little indignant when he collected the money, muttering something like "You just wait to be approached by the 'Witch Sect'", "Keep your mouth tight when you are tortured, don't confess me" and so on.
Could it be that in addition to the "instigator", there is also a sequence called "provocateur", and the method of playing is to have thorns in every sentence, which makes people want to squash him?
Kicking the boring Dominic out of his mind, Angel couldn't help but take out the bullet box, open the lid and look at the extraordinary properties of the quiet lying inside, like looking at a bottle of potion that has been concocted.
Unfortunately, there is still one more step to make it a potion.
A step that only Kaveh knows.
——————
Back on the Golden Avenue in the Oak District, Angel can see the bombed-out "Carvey Watch Shop" from afar.
A few hours had passed since Kaveh had been attacked, and the sawdust, rocks, and shards of glass had been swept away from the shop and into the street, but the open doors and windows and the seals that only served as a warning but did not prevent anyone from entering still made the watch shop stand out from the crowd, and from time to time passers-by looked curiously inside.
Angel wanted to go to the church of the "God of Steam and Machinery" to ask where Kaveh was, but the craftsman stood in front of his shop, looking at the half-collapsed sign with a lonely expression.
Seeing her arrival, Kaveh smiled self-deprecatingly.
"I didn't expect that the most famous moment of my store was now, there are not many customers all day long, and now the whole street knows about it, and it is really hot to 'explode'."
"You can reorganize it and continue to open the store, or take the opportunity to move to a bigger place."
Angel didn't know if it was because of his teammates' betrayal, death, or the destruction of the shop, so Angel had to comfort him.
"Forget it, I've wanted to get out of here for a long time, and this bastard Tomats helped me make the decision. I have already submitted my application, and when it is approved, I will be transferred to Beckland to see the world of flowers, make money for retirement, and I don't want to smell the sea breeze and industrial exhaust fumes again in this life. ”
Carveh whispered as he kicked a piece of glass on the side of the road that had been missed by the cleaner into the door of the watch shop, where the frame was missing.
"What about you? What is the matter with the night watchman in Tingen looking for me? ”
It seems that the "Heart of the Machine" has sent a telegram to the Night Watch team in Port Emmatt, asking about me......
Angel had already organized her language, but in the face of the depressed Kaveh, she hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"That's it...... You mentioned earlier that 'extraordinary traits' are used for promotion, can you tell me more about them...... I mean, I saved your life in the morning......"
She had never done such a thing of begging for favors, and she even stumbled when she spoke, and her face was already flushed in just a few words.
Looking at the embarrassed Angel, Carveh couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, I can see that you're not used to talking like that."
Walking to the door of the watch shop through broken glass, Carveh removed the police seal and walked through the doorway, Angel following him.
"I've already slipped through my mouth anyway, and now that I think about it, Tomas should have known the information from me, and my oath has long been broken."
In the depths of the shop, Kaveh put away her smile, her face became serious, she looked out the door, and saw that the passers-by did not pay attention to this side, so she lowered her voice and said:
"I'm going to say it only once, and you swear I won't ...... our conversation Anyway, the oath doesn't seem to be very useful, unless there is a magical item that can witness the oath in the presence of it. ”
"But don't say I told you."
Angel bit her lip nervously and nodded.
Then, in this chaotic watch shop that resembles a post-war ruin, Angel learns an important law in the field of occultism.
"The total amount of extraordinary properties remains the same, does not decrease, does not destroy, only transfers from one carrier to another, this is the 'law of immortality of extraordinary characteristics'."
"The power of the Extraordinary comes from the potion, and the power of the potion comes from the main ingredient that synthesizes it, and in the process of mixing and taking the potion, the extraordinary properties are transferred to the body of the Extraordinary, and when they die, this characteristic will be precipitated. The higher the sequence, the longer it will take to precipitate, but regardless of the length of time, the extraordinary properties of precipitation always contain all the power of the deceased. ”
"This extraordinary property can be used as the main material of the corresponding sequence of potions, and only by adding auxiliary materials, a normal potion can be blended."
"This is also the reason why Tomas is on a wanted warrant and will come to kill me, he is already an 'archaeologist' in sequence 8, as long as he gets my extraordinary characteristics, even if he doesn't know the formula of the potion and swallows it directly without adding auxiliary materials, he has a great hope of being promoted to 'appraiser', if he adds auxiliary materials according to the formula, the success rate is no different from that of regular potions. Heh, he should think that I lack combat ability, so it's better to get it. ”
"Appraiser"? Aren't you a "craftsman"...... subconsciously complained, but Angel's mind was completely out of the back words, her mind was running rapidly, and she figured out a lot of things in an instant.
Why does the church recover the remains of the extraordinary......
Why are the Extraordinary under the same Orthodox Church almost all of the same potion paths......
Why does the Extraordinary Trait make it a magical item with the ability to correspond to the sequence......
And......
In her pocket, she has enough of the extraordinary characteristics of "Instigator" to advance to Sequence 8!
