Oak led them straight north, and the oppressive atmosphere of Osborne Town was gradually replaced by the hustle and bustle of the survivors.

After passing through the bumpy dirt road, they soon arrived at the entrance of the temporary adventurer camp on the outskirts of the northern area of ​​Osborne Town.

This is not a bustling market, but an open area near the Warcraft Mountains.

But the camp gate, which had been heavily guarded, was now open, and the noise of people coming in and out was deafening.

Many townspeople set up simple stalls and sold hot food and beer outside the gate, hoping to take this opportunity to make a fortune from the adventurers who had just escaped.

The air was filled with the aroma of food, sweat, and burning.

Mark's sharp eyes swept over the crowd and stalls, stopping in an area a little further away from the gate, near sparse bushes.

Most of the stalls here are set up by adventurers or traveling merchants, and the stalls are more simple than those at the entrance of the camp.

A piece of animal skin, a wooden box or just spread it on the ground.

The goods are varied, including mud-stained herbs, broken animal teeth, dull minerals, and repaired leather goods. These things that are not allowed to be displayed on the table in the Osborne market are displayed here. I heard that the Adventurer's Free Market located between several towns is like this.

Behind one of the wooden box stalls, a thin young man with rolling eyes shouted loudly:

"...Don't miss this if you're passing by! Freshly arrived 'Holy Light Purification Potion'! Exactly the same one Dragon Slayer City distributed to the camp! Only one of its kind! Limited quantities, once they're sold, you'll be back in the mountains to feed the wolves! Only fifty silver coins a bottle! You think it's too expensive for something that can save your life?! You'll be crying if you miss out!"

On the wooden box in front of him, there were several crude crystal bottles placed in a mess. The liquid inside was turbid and golden, with tiny white spots floating faintly.

The bottle was labeled with a cheap handwritten label that read "Holy Light Purification Potion." Judging from its description and appearance, it looked exactly like the "magic medicine" in the camp that Oak had heard about before.

But... Monica was too lazy to even go forward to identify it.

This trick can only fool pure newcomers who have just entered the industry. Now even Oak and others can't be fooled.

By spending fifty silver coins, you are not losing out, nor are you being cheated.

It is a lesson in stepping into the world of adventure.

Mark led everyone around the open-air market outside and went straight to the main entrance of the camp, which was relatively heavily guarded.

There were two ornately decorated carriages parked here, with a team of well-dressed and well-trained guards standing beside them.

They were not dressed like guards of Dragon Slaying City, but more like guards of a chamber of commerce or aristocracy.

A leader-like figure was shouting loudly to the crowd, emphasizing the "official certification" and "last chance" of the potion.

A small queue had already formed in front of the stall.

The medicines neatly stacked in the wooden boxes on the carriage did not look much different from the fake ones sold in the market outside.

"One gold coin per bottle! Purchase limit: three bottles per person!"

Mark took one look at the sleek team and the genuine potion bottles, and said to Oak simply, "Go buy a bottle."

Ouke squeezed forward and handed over a gold coin.

The other party took the money and handed over a bottle of medicine neatly.

Oak returned to Mark with the bottle of liquid worth one gold coin.

Mark took the cold crystal bottle, which felt heavy in his hand. The turbid liquid swayed slightly in the bottle, emitting a familiar smell mixed with a faint holy light and exotic spices.

He lowered his head and stared at the liquid in the bottle, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the rough marks on the bottle, his brows slightly furrowed.

This smell... seems familiar.

"Go back to the hotel." Mark's voice was low, with an unquestionable determination.

He turned and left without explaining.

Anna, Monica, and Enzo followed closely behind, and Oak also hurried to catch up.

Returning to his team's room at Chunhui Hotel, Mark gently placed the bottle of "Holy Light Purification Potion" he had just bought on the table in the living room.

Mark looked at Monica: "Monica, please."

Monica nodded and handed Xiao Mu back to Mark.

She walked to the table, and her slender white fingers did not touch the crystal bottle directly, but hovered an inch above the bottle mouth.

Identification!

An extremely weak layer of magic power flowed out from her fingertips, slowly enveloping the entire crystal bottle.

The halo of light flowed, and the white light spots that were originally slowly floating inside the medicine in the bottle seemed to be pulled by something, and the flow trajectory became clearly visible, and the turbid golden liquid also seemed to show subtle changes in levels.

Monica's clear eyes stared intently at the potion, and it seemed as if countless tiny pieces of information were rapidly jumping in the depths of her pupils.

Suddenly, Monica's hovering fingers trembled very slightly.

She quickly withdrew her hand, and the halo surrounding the crystal bottle dissipated.

"How is it?" Oak on the side couldn't help but speak first.

Speaking of which, the Oak Six were the only few people in Osborne who knew that Monica was a dual-professional.

Otherwise, Mark wouldn't have agreed to let him come in with him.

Letting Oak come in can be regarded as a reassurance to the three major adventure groups and Beta and the others. Once a conclusion is reached here, the news will be shared with them.

Monica slowly raised her head and said something for no reason:

"Speaking of which, does the term 'Holy Light Purification Potion' sound familiar to you?"

"Isn't this a very common potion name?" Enzo jumped onto the fireplace in the living room and sat down on it.

Ever since returning to this human town, Mark and his group have been nervous. He didn't even have a full breakfast before he followed a few people running back and forth twice for no apparent reason.

It's really painful!

Enzo had not come out of the underground mine for hundreds of years, so naturally he did not notice the problem with the name of the potion.

Instead, Anna spoke first, "The Church of Holy Light only sells various Holy Light spell scrolls, and doesn't produce Holy Light potions. The only potion they produce is 'holy water,' and that's not sold to the public. Only believers can obtain holy water from the church through donations."

Anna learned this knowledge when she was investigating Beta before joining the Beta adventure group.

As she spoke, she looked at Mark. If she guessed correctly, Captain Beta had actually bought the "fake" holy water from Mr. Mark.

Mark grinned, and in response to Anna's questioning gaze, he could only nod in agreement: "Anna is right. So, the people from Dragon Slaying City are actually selling dog meat under the guise of sheep?"

Monica was no longer surprised by the unique proverbs that Mark would utter from time to time.

But what she wanted to express was not what Mark understood.

"No. If I remember correctly, the night we first met Beta, someone wanted to sell him a bottle of 'Holy Light Purification Potion'! And that was the night when Oak and the others came into contact with the Phantom Wolf..."

As Monica spoke, she no longer kept the secret and presented the verified information to everyone.
