Chapter 60: Recipe



Wednesday night, 7:55, in the alley behind the Brave Bar.

Klein walked around for a while based on his memory and finally found the darkly lit house.

He disguised himself to some extent today, wearing a gray-blue worker's uniform, a peaked cap, and a full beard, so that others would not be able to associate him with the guy who bought the "Black Snake" items to gamble his luck.

It would be best if the old man "Eye of Wisdom" and that guy "Pharmacist" couldn't recognize me. Otherwise, a newcomer who just became a Beyonder by luck can come up with several potion formulas in just one week. It always makes people think of a lot of things, and I have to doubt... Klein put his hands in his pockets and touched the Azik copper whistle, ordinary tarot cards, and the replenished talismans.

He also had this worker's uniform specially modified by a tailor. It had many small pockets for small metal bottles containing herbal powders, hydrosol essences and other things.

After taking a breath and slowly exhaling, Klein pulled out the iron mask that only covered the upper half of his face from inside his clothes, completing the initial disguise.

Then, with the help of the "clown" ability, he controlled his expressions and subtle body movements, changed his walking posture, and paralyzed his facial nerves, in order to be significantly different from his previous self.

However, I don’t know how the old man with the Eye of Wisdom recognizes people, and he can only do this. Oh, it would be great if I were already a Faceless Man... But if that’s the case, there’s no need for me to attend this low-end Beyonder gathering... Klein stood outside, calmed down for a few seconds, raised his right hand, and knocked on the door, 7 heavy knocks, 1 light knock, 6 long knocks, and 1 short knock.

There was almost no waiting before the small wooden board on the door was silently opened, and an eye appeared from behind, looking the visitor up and down.

Two or three seconds later, the door creaked open, and the waiter from the Eye of Wisdom handed Klein a black robe with a hood.

Klein remained expressionless as he quickly put on his robe and lowered his hood, letting the shadow cover his face.

On the way to the living room, he deliberately adopted an unfamiliar pace and tried hard to eliminate the awkward feeling.

In the dim and deep room where only the light of a candle flickered gently, many party members had already arrived. Klein did not choose a seat in the corner like he had done before, but sat down on a high stool near the center.

In short, all his outward expressions will be different from the previous two times!

And this is exactly where the Joker excels in his ability to reflect himself in his mind and initially control it.

The living room was so quiet and silent that it was almost frozen. Time passed by minute by minute. Finally, the old man "Eye of Wisdom" looked at the clock on the wall and said in a solemn voice:

"It's time, let's get started, no need to wait for the late friends."

As soon as he finished speaking, Klein said in a hoarse voice:

"I want to sell potion recipes."

"Sequence 9 'Singer' and Sequence 8 'Prayer' of the Church of the Eternal Sun."

"The former is 220 pounds, the latter is 450 pounds."

This was the most suitable plan after he thought about it. The "audience" and "mind reader" involved the Psychological Alchemy Society, a secret organization that was relatively active in Backlund in the Kingdom of Loen. If he took them out rashly, it might attract their attention. The Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun was blocked outside the Kingdom of Loen by the Church of the Lord of Storms. The corresponding extraordinary people rarely appeared in Backlund and could hardly do anything. It was a very safe choice.

The potion of the "Fortune Teller" path involves Klein himself, and he certainly doesn't want to expose his own characteristics.

——After experiencing and observing so many battles between Extraordinary people, he gradually came to some understanding, that is, below the high sequence, Extraordinary people from different paths have their own characteristics and are not the same. In other words, each has its own strengths and weaknesses, and their strengths and weaknesses are so obvious that the strong are indeed strong, and the weak are also quite weak.

For example, the "audience" path lacks the ability to fight head-on, but if you ignore them and are unconsciously guided, then even if your fighting level and extraordinary skills are strong, you may die without knowing why you died. A vivid example is "Vice Admiral Hurricane" Qilingos, who clearly possessed the magical item "Creeping Hunger" and had a comprehensive combat power of Sequence 5, but ultimately died inexplicably. Most of the credit here goes to Azik's strength, but the role played by the "audience" cannot be ignored.

Precisely because most Beyonder classes below the high Sequence level have distinct characteristics but obvious weaknesses, and their bodies are fragile, so if one can conceal one's own strengths, figure out the enemy's situation in advance, and make effective arrangements based on the weaknesses, then it is not impossible for the weak to defeat the strong. In extremely extreme cases, there is a very small chance that a Sequence 9 will kill a Sequence 5.

Of course, this example is a perfect hypothesis, and it is almost impossible to happen in reality. Sequence 5 can already be called a strong person, and the corresponding extraordinary abilities are enough to be called magical. "Excellence" can effectively cover up "shortcomings". Unless you are at Sequence 6, it is difficult to have an impact on them.

On the other hand, many Beyonders below the High Sequence are very afraid of being besieged, even if the opponents are all below their own Sequence, because once they are in a hurry and lose sight of one thing while focusing on another, their weaknesses will become fatal factors.

These problems are why the "Shepherds" can be ranked in the first tier below the high sequence. They are too comprehensive. If the extraordinary abilities are combined and matched well enough, there are almost no shortcomings!

When I reach Sequence 7 and have all kinds of magical extraordinary abilities, even if I encounter a Sequence 6, I can fight him head-on for a while, and I may even win... If I encounter a Sequence 5, I will have a chance to escape... As his thoughts raced, Klein looked around, expecting someone to speak.

If the "Singer" and "Prayer for Light" cannot be sold, then we can only settle for the next best thing and consider "Audience" and "Mind Reader", and consider the Beyonder characteristics such as immortality and conservation... The formula of my own path must not be sold, and the "Witch" path is not allowed either. That would cause a lot of tragedies. Whether it is the "Instigator" or the "Witch", they are the type who actively do evil... Klein was a little uneasy in his heart, but his face was still expressionless as he waited.

"In fact, I can consider buying it." At this time, the chubby-faced pharmacist laughed, "I can take in another apprentice, give him these two recipes, and have him pray for light specifically for my herbs. Perfect! Luxurious!"

His words broke the brief silence in the room. A man in the corner with his hood pulled low spoke in a sharp voice, obviously deliberately:

"Perhaps I can give my child a sequence that is at least stronger than mine."

"Sequence 9, 200 pounds, Sequence 8, 400 pounds. If you agree, it's a deal."

Being able to take out 600 pounds at once means he is quite wealthy. This amount is enough to buy a house in downtown Tingen... Klein pretended to think and looked at the other party members to observe their reactions.

Seeing that no one had the urge to raise the price, and the other party's offer also reached his psychological bottom line, Klein considered it and said:

"One additional requirement: you cannot sell these two recipes in this party. You are free to sell them anywhere else."

The man said sharply:

"Okay, Mr. Wisdom Eyes will be your witness."

Klein didn't know how to prove that the formula was real, and he didn't want to ask, which would expose the fact that he hadn't attended many gatherings. He could only pull up his robe in silence, take out two potion formulas that he had written long ago, and hand them to the waiter next to him.

The waiter did not go to the corner, but came to the single sofa in the middle and handed the folded paper to the "Eye of Wisdom".

The old man spread out the paper, but without even glancing at it, he placed it on the small round table next to him.

Then he took out a handkerchief, wiped his right palm, and took out a ring inlaid with many tiny diamonds from his pocket.

The ring was intricate and exquisitely designed, with a emerald green gem in the middle that looked like an eye. Just by glancing at it from a distance, Klein felt his head swelling and his body feeling unwell, just like when he saw the math test paper before.

The old man "Eye of Wisdom" solemnly put the ring on the middle finger of his right hand, then closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.

Suddenly, the emerald gem on the ring burst into brilliant golden color, golden like sunshine.

The old man "Eye of Wisdom" quickly stretched out his right hand and let the gem touch the potion formula written by Klein.

The golden light became purer and purer, and finally evolved into a seal-like projection.

"It's real and effective!" the old man "Eye of Wisdom" announced in a deep voice, and then took off the ring, not daring to wear it for even a second longer.

This tone is very much like that of a notary... That ring is the best collection of Mr. Wisdom Eye, the Sealed Item "2-081"? It simulates the ability of a notary? Klein looked at it thoughtfully, quite envious.

After "notarization", the transaction was quickly concluded, and Klein received a thick stack of cash, all of which were 10-pound bills.

After counting them three times, he did not fold the banknotes and put them into his pocket. Instead, he held them in his palm, waiting for the next opportunity to spend them.

——He planned to observe for a while and make sure there were no items he needed before asking for purchase.

At this time, the chubby "pharmacist" glanced around and said:

"I brought a few tranquilizers."

Really brought it? I had forgotten about it... To make it different from the past, Klein could only pretend that it was not there.

After shouting several times and seeing no one responding, the pharmacist muttered:

"That guy didn't come this time?"

"Maybe he died somewhere."

Thank you for your "blessing"... But I'm glad that you didn't recognize me... Klein breathed a sigh of relief.

The pharmacist asked for the "Medullary Crystal of the Elves' Spring" as usual, but still got nothing.

When he closed his mouth for a moment, a lady with her face completely hidden by the shadow of a hood and two boxes at her feet spoke:

"I have two weapons with extraordinary effects."

Is this the lady who sold the rune steel sword last time? My intuition as a fortune teller tells me that... She has two more similar weapons? Behind her is the Transcendent Arms Group... Well, maybe there is a "craftsman" behind her, a "generalist" path sequence 6 "craftsman" also known as a "mechanical expert"... Klein looked over expectantly.

What he promised was to give "The Sun" an extraordinary weapon worth 500 to 700 pounds that could effectively improve the opponent's combat effectiveness. He did not promise the specific type and characteristics, so as long as it was almost the same and could be used, you could buy it. Anyway, "The Sun" would not be picky.
