Volume 1 Winter in Halma Chapter 22 Potion of Madness
Andu walked down the street, feeling a little excited.
From time to time, he looked around left and right, looking for the thief, the vagabond, who was hiding in the shadows.
But in the end, he was disappointed, and after leaving the auction house, he was not followed at all.
Thinking about the huge amount of money on his body, he instantly missed the dilapidated apartment urgently, and the speed under his feet was faster.
As for the priest's robe stored in the bathing center, he was in no mood to pick it up at this time.
I'm going to church anyway tomorrow, so let's take some time to pick it up!
Andu cautiously walked through the streets, and after a while, he completely integrated into his surroundings......
Andu stood in front of the familiar door, looked around vigilantly, and made sure that no one was following him, and then took the step into the door.
When he entered the door, he was still not at ease, so he first closed the door with his backhand, and then put on a vigilant posture and began to look in the house, repeatedly confirming that there was no trace of the thief in the house, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
He carefully locked the only two anti-theft locks on the dilapidated wooden door, and then pulled the handle to try, and found that the wooden door only shook slightly, and there was no sign of loosening, and the originally tense face could no longer be controlled, revealing a tired look.
"Finally settled. ”
Andu returned to the room and fell straight on the bed, the tense nerves along the way were finally completely relieved until this moment.
"I've never walked down the street with so much money in my life......"
Andu took out the paper bag in his arms.
Feeling this huge amount of money with almost no weight, a smile appeared on his face.
"The smell of money is intoxicating. ”
Andu opened the seal of the paper bag with some excitement, and reached out to take out the money inside, no more, no less, exactly four.
The first thing that appeared in front of Andu's eyes was an Imperial Silver Dollar note with the number ten written on it.
The depiction of a young lady was vaguely from the church, and Andu flipped through his memory before recognizing the person on the banknote.
"The Holy Maiden Evelyn, the angel who walks on the land after the New Age, represents the god of light. ”
Andu didn't know much about the Holy Maiden Evelyn, and after carefully recalling it, he only roughly remembered that the other party should have fallen two hundred years ago, and it was said that he had returned to heaven.
Without dwelling too much on the lowest denomination Imperial Silver Dollar note, Andu flipped the back few notes to the front.
Then he saw up close the three banknotes with denominations of twenty, fifty, and one hundred.
In Andu's previous experience, he didn't need to actually use coins, so he never looked at them seriously, let alone the memories he received.
The 20-face banknote depicts Simmons Alfred, a modern and modern card master of mankind.
Andu was very impressed, but unfortunately the great man had passed away thirty years ago.
However, the reason why a great man is called a great man naturally has his own reason.
Even today, his writings are a compulsory course in many colleges and universities.
The fifty-face note depicts the creator of the Akmund Continent card, Jobe Ferreira.
Jobe Ferreira's life is like a legend.
His father was a rebel and his mother was a slave, so he spent most of his childhood in a mine.
Because he has no sunlight all year round, Job-Ferreira's eyes suffer from severe myopia, and he can barely see clearly as long as he is far away.
Since he was a child, he has been slower than the average person, and even injured his leg while working, causing him to limp when he walks.
At the age of thirteen, Job Ferreira was supposed to die of a plague, but was rescued by a passing elf.
Since then, he has used his inflexible legs to cover almost the entire continent of Akmund.
In middle age, Jobe Ferreira officially created the card, and since then the history of mankind has begun to move towards a new chapter.
It is rumored that in the last days of his life, he even spent two years in the southern forbidden land of Akmund, the Loess Continent, and left his own traces.
Andu, who had been fascinated by Akmund's continental history, was well aware of the story of Job Ferreira.
It can be said that without Jobe Ferreira, there would be no cards.
After two minutes of silent mourning, Andu took a deep breath and set his eyes on the highest denomination.
On the banknote, a middle-aged man stands on a towering castle, overlooking below.
He was dressed in plain clothes, but the majestic gaze revealed between his eyebrows and eyes made people can't help but want to bow their heads and follow his instructions.
"Adelaide Augustine, the greatest emperor in human history!"
Andu looked at the person on the banknote, and a burning flame rose in his heart.
His eyes were full of yearning, respect, and determination.
In Akmund, you don't know who the emperor is, you don't know who your parents are, but you must know Adelaide Augustine.
This man has led humanity to the top of the world!
Under his rule, the orcs were subjugated, the elves trembled, and the sea tribes fled!
Adelaide Augustine was also the only emperor who integrated the human race.
Under his leadership, at that time, there was only one human empire on the entire continent of Akmund, the Holy Akkadian Empire!
At that time, there was no demon rage, no devil invasion, and no undead race in the north of the continent.
There is only endless war between various races on the whole continent.
And all this has become history since the appearance of this man.
The Holy Akkadian Empire became the master of the continent, and the light of magic and vindictiveness shone on the whole of Akmund, and the curtain of a new era began.
This splendor lasted for decades, but everything is unpredictable.
Perhaps it was the reverse, or perhaps the rise and fall of the extreme, and shortly after the New Era, Adelaide Augustine the Great was assassinated, the undead appeared in Akmund, and a new war began.
Since the fall of Adelaide the Great, the civilization of human magic and vindictiveness has also come to an end.
And with that came Job-Ferreira.
Even after hundreds of years of exploration and research, countless historians and scientists have still not been able to find out the truth of that period of history.
But Adelaide Augustine lives forever in the history of Akmund.
Every child, in the first lesson of life, is told the story of this man.
"A man's dream, a woman's spring dream?"
Such a sentence suddenly popped into Andu's mind, and he laughed at himself silently.
Four banknotes, enough for one hundred and eighty imperial silver dollars.
For the first time since he came to this world, Andu felt that he finally didn't have to worry about eating.
He lay down on the bed, carefully stuffed the twenty imperial silver dollars into a paper bag, and then pocketed the rest of the money.
I can't let Elizabeth know about the money now, and if she is asked, she won't be able to answer!
He suddenly thought of his sister, and suddenly had a headache, I wonder if he will be seen something at night?
After dealing with the money, he sat up and walked to the desk.
This is the only thing left in the room other than the bed.
Maybe the chairs in front of the table?
Andu felt himself go down, the creaking wooden chair, and was a little worried about whether it would be reimbursed directly.
After confirming that the wooden chair could still hold on, Andu carefully picked up the pen on the table, opened a notebook with gentle movements, and began to write.
"Potion of madness. ”
"Material one: two hundred milliliters of blood from the fallen, or a pair of eyes from the fallen. ”
"Material 2: Three hundred milliliters of mad blood of barbarian blood. ”
"Material Three: Ashes of Evil Spirits. ”
"Auxiliary materials: 80 milliliters of anchovy sap, 40 milliliters of blue silver grass juice, 30 milliliters of morning dew, 60 milliliters of purple thread sap......"
Andu quickly recorded, and in just two minutes, he wrote down more than thirty kinds of auxiliary materials.
It wasn't until the last material was written that he stopped writing, and after carefully examining it for a long time, he began to think about the limits of his current card drawing.
Now that the Ring of Origin is bound, the operability is also much greater, and if you can bind another card ring, then the certainty will be greater......
Andu just raised this thought, and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Still no, the making of card rings is much more troublesome than cards. ”
"And compared to card rings, I have a significantly higher grasp of card making. ”
"You still have to deal with the madness potion first, so that you have the basic self-protection ability, and the matter of the card ring still has to wait. ”
Andu reminisced about the Potion of Madness and the requirements for crafting another card, and began to write again in his notebook.
Before he knew it, Andu noticed that his surroundings were getting darker and darker, and when he looked up, he found that the sun had set and a crescent moon had risen.
Andu was about to get up and turn on the light, but the sound of unlocking came from the door.
He was stunned at first, looked up at the old wall clock, and realized that it was already past six o'clock in the evening.
"Knock knock!"
"Andu, are you not at home!?"
Andu suddenly heard Elizabeth's voice outside the door, and then remembered that he had locked the door.
After struggling to reopen the two locks, which were already rusting, Elizabeth immediately appeared in front of him in a puff.
"What are you doing? Lock the door...... Hey, you bought clothes? ”
Elizabeth complained at first, but after seeing Andu's dress, she was suddenly surprised.
"Ahh
Andu said with a smile, and pulled the hem of his clothes with both hands to make himself look more energetic.
"Where did you get the money?"
Elizabeth asked subconsciously, but then suddenly thought of the conversation between the two yesterday.
Elizabeth, who had guessed the result in her heart, jumped up for joy and suddenly hugged Andu in front of her.
"Eh??"
Andu was startled by Elizabeth's movements, and instinctively pushed her away.
But no sooner had his hand reached out than it stopped in mid-air, and finally turned into a pat on the girl's back.
After Elizabeth finished hugging Andu, she looked at Andu expectantly, waiting for him to speak.
"Uh, well, as I said, sold for twenty imperial silver dollars. ”
Andu was stared at by Elizabeth's stunned gaze a little unnaturally, and took out the paper bag from his pocket.
Because the pockets are not big, and Andu has been sitting on the chair just now, the paper bag at this time looks crumpled.
Elizabeth looked at the paper bag that Andu took out, her brow jumped first, and then she heard Andu speak.
"People give paper money, and I've never seen so much money in my life!"
A brand-new Imperial Silver Dollar, with a face value of twenty, appeared in front of Elizabeth's eyes as Andu spoke.
