Chapter 602: Simple Adela!
"good!"
After hearing the servant's words, Gervis had no choice but to nod in response, then turned his attention to the boxes in front of him.
Gervis was very familiar with the contents of the two wooden boxes; they were the Warcraft crystals.
The appearance of this dark attribute Warcraft crystal is no different from other Warcraft crystals, but its color is gray-black throughout.
After taking a look at the dark attribute monster crystals, Gervis turned his attention to the other two jade boxes.
The two jade boxes did not contain magic potion plants, but two small crystal test tubes.
The test tubes are now filled with transparent liquid, in which many ice crystals can be seen. This is the deep-sea ice essence that Gervis needs.
"Well, now we just need the Netherworld Magic Leaf. I hope nothing goes wrong!"
After checking the two materials, Gervis did not rush to ask about the price, but began to patiently drink tea and wait.
After only waiting for three or four minutes, another person walked into the private room. He was an acquaintance of Gervis, and it was Pedder, the manager of the Sacred Trading Company.
"Master Harry!"
When Peide entered the private room, he was also surprised when he saw Gervis. He didn't expect that it was him who bought the materials.
"Hello, Manager Pedder!"
Gervis was also a little helpless. He had originally just wanted to leave immediately after purchasing the three materials, but he didn't expect to be bumped into by Pedder.
However, what worried Gervis the most was that seeing as Pedder came in empty-handed, it was very likely that there was some trouble with the Netherworld Illusion Leaf.
Sure enough, the next moment Pedder looked normal and continued speaking.
"I didn't expect that Master Harry wanted to buy the Netherworld Leaf!"
"Master Harry, I'm very sorry. Because the Nether Phantom Leaf is very special and the demand is very small, we usually only store three copies at our headquarters. But just two days ago, all three copies of the Nether Phantom Leaf were bought by other customers at once."
"Although the company has sent people to other holy cities to transfer goods the day before yesterday, it will still take four or five days at the earliest. I wonder if you are willing to wait a few days!"
Pedder did not relax his etiquette because of his acquaintance with Gervis.
When talking to Gervis, he still treated him as a distinguished guest and his tone was very respectful.
"Does it take another four or five days? Manager Peide, this is the headquarters of the Holy Trading Company, why don't you store more here?"
Although he had to wait four or five days, it was better than not being able to buy it at all. Although Gervis felt a little helpless, he did not complain.
He was just a little curious that in the headquarters of this sacred trading company, there were only three copies of these magical materials stored.
"Master Harry, the growing environment of this Nether Phantom Leaf is very special. Not only is it very demanding in terms of various growing conditions, but it cannot see the sunlight. It can only grow in the dark all year round. If it encounters the sunlight, it will wither directly. Therefore, this Nether Phantom Leaf is not common."
"And our Holy Company specially hired a necromancer to set up a small magic circle in the Holy City of Soth, which is specifically used to grow Nether Phantom Leaves and other magic potion plants that can only grow at night."
"And this Netherworld Illusion Leaf has another peculiarity. Once it is picked, even if it is placed in the storage space, its effectiveness can only be maintained for half a year. This is an extremely rare situation."
"So normally we only have one to three plants in stock in each of our Sacred Business stores. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence this time that all the stock was bought out at once a few days ago!"
Manager Peide looked apologetic and explained to Gervis. After all, it was extremely rare for the Holy Trading Company to be out of stock, and this was also the headquarters of the Holy Trading Company.
"I see!"
Gervis nodded. This situation was indeed special. Many things could be preserved permanently if they were put into the storage space.
At the same time, another idea suddenly came to his mind. Pedder's words just now enlightened him. He seemed to have harvested a lot of magic potion plants in the magician's tower, and the magician's tower was also in the dark.
Gervis didn't recognize the Netherworld Leaf, so he didn't think of choosing it from the magic potion plants he picked.
Now that he had this idea in mind, Gervis continued.
"Butler Peide, do you have any atlas of the Netherworld Phantom Leaf?"
"I want to take a look, and then go to the college to ask again! If the college doesn't have it either, I'll come back to your place in four or five days!"
Gervis did not reserve those Netherworld Leaves immediately. He had to go back and confirm whether he had them in his space ring. Besides, these Netherworld Leaves were so unpopular that it was impossible for them to be bought by someone else by chance. He could wait for confirmation before making a choice.
"Of course we have this, Master Harry, please wait a moment!"
Of course they have picture albums of magic potion plants here. After all, sometimes customers need to compare when purchasing.
Pedder said something to Gervis, then told his servant to bring the atlas.
Soon, the servant took the atlas and turned to the page about the Netherworld Leaf and presented it to Gervis for inspection.
Gervis only took a few glances to memorize the appearance and characteristics of the Netherworld Phantom Leaf, and then spoke.
"In that case, Manager Peide, I will buy these things today. Can you please help me calculate how many gold coins I will need?"
"Okay, Master Harry!"
"The unified selling price of the dark attribute magic beast crystal in our Holy Business is 1,300 gold coins per piece, and the selling price of the deep sea ice essence is 300 gold coins per piece!"
"So, Master Harry, you need to pay a total of 3,200 gold coins for these two Magical Beast Crystals and two Deep Sea Ice Essences. However, because the Netherworld Magic Leaves you purchased are out of stock, it has caused you inconvenience. As an apology, our company will give you a discount!"
"You only need to pay three thousand gold coins!"
Pedder said to Gervis in a very respectful tone.
"In that case, thank you, Butler Pedder!"
When Gervis heard the total price of three thousand two hundred gold coins, his heart twitched again. He had previously spent a total of two thousand gold coins, and now another three thousand were required. So he would only have one thousand five hundred gold coins left.
However, he felt a little better because of the discount of 200 gold coins mentioned by Pedder.
Gervis did not refuse immediately and took out his wallet from his sleeve, ready to pay.
Afterwards, after both parties had counted the money and goods, Gervis stood up and prepared to leave.
"Manager Peide, thank you for your discount this time! I'll be leaving first!"
"Okay, Master Harry, take care. If you still haven't found the Netherworld Leaf by then, you can always come to the store to buy it!"
Pedder saluted Gervis with a smile on his face.
"OK!"
After saying that, Gervis walked out of the business under the guidance of his servants.
And Pedder looked at Gervis's departing back thoughtfully.
After leaving the wizard's tower, he sent people to investigate Harry's identity according to Miss Lolita's previous instructions, but to no avail.
This Master Harry seemed to have appeared out of thin air. All we could find out was that he first appeared in people's field of vision in the Mercenary Guild of the Holy City of Heka, and later he followed Lachi to the Sunset Forest.
However, because it had been confirmed at that time that the young man who stole his lady's Dragon Tooth Sword had the skills of a White Flag Knight, Harry's suspicion was cleared.
Although he had some secrets, they did not delve into them. After all, there was no shortage of people with secret identities in the Holy Continent.
But the situation changed again yesterday.
Yesterday, Miss Lolita once again ordered him to send someone to investigate the identity of Master Harry, so the things Harry bought today immediately made Pedder interested.
Although I don't know what Master Harry bought these things for, the dark-attributed Warcraft Crystals and Netherworld Leaves are definitely not what a fire magician needs.
Moreover, it seemed that Master Harry was not short of money, as he took out the three thousand gold coins in an instant. This was inconsistent with the fact that Master Harry had fallen to the point of going to the mercenary guild to look for missions to make money.
"Go report to the young lady first!"
Thinking of this, Pedder moved and headed deeper into the manor.
Now that Miss Lolita is paying attention to Harry, Pedder naturally needs to report any movement as soon as possible, so that he can appear to be capable.
…
After walking out of the Sacred Trading Company, Gervis did not stay for long and went straight back to the Alliance Higher Normal College.
As for the fact that Peder went to report the news about him to Lolita, Gervis didn't know about it, and even if he knew, there was nothing he could do.
Since they were so unlucky to run into Pedder, Gervis felt that this was fate, and they probably wouldn't associate it with anything else for the time being. They just had to pay more attention to this aspect in the future.
With a little bit of fighting spirit added to his progress, Gervis returned to the academy in just half an hour.
Just when Gervis arrived at the dormitory area, he met someone he had seen twice in the morning on the road not far from the dormitory. It was the beautiful rich girl Adela.
At this time, Adela was holding a few thick books in her hands and was coming towards him from the front.
"Adela-san!"
There was some surprise in Gervis' tone. Why was this girl here? Did she come here specifically to see him?
After all, the detached villa where Adela lived was not in this direction, so there was no possibility of passing through here.
"Harry, you are here! I have been looking for you!"
Adela had not noticed Gervis at first, but when she heard the voice and looked for it, she found it was Gervis. Her expression immediately showed a little surprise, and then she said something to Gervis.
Seeing Adela's appearance, Gervis knew that she had really been to the dormitory building to look for him.
At the same time, I was thinking that this Adela girl wouldn't persuade me to learn the magic of the dead, so I would definitely not play the trick.
"I just went to the inner city and bought some magic materials. I wonder if you have anything to do with me, Adela?"
"It's nothing. I have a few notebooks here that I wrote when I was still an apprentice magician before I made a breakthrough. They are all about necromancers. I brought them here especially for you to see!"
"You have the talent of necromancy. It would be a shame if you just waste it like this!"
Adela said as she handed over several books, three in total, all of which were what Adela had written down when she was studying in class, and they were extremely detailed.
She really thought it was a pity that Harry, with his character and talent as a necromancer, could not learn because he had no money.
So she brought these notes with her, hoping that Harry could use them to learn the magic of the dead.
If Harry made some progress in his studies by then, he might change his mind and want to learn necromancy again.
Even if you don't change your mind, as long as you study these notes carefully and spend more time, you will have the hope of becoming a true necromancer.
"Thank you so much, Adela-san!"
Gervis looked at Adela in front of him with complicated eyes.
To be honest, at that moment, Gervis was really moved by the beautiful and elegant young lady in front of him.
People say that what touches people's hearts the most is simplicity, because that is what everyone desires most, but will lose when they grow up.
And the rich girl Adela in front of him, perhaps because of her special growing environment, did not lose her innocence like most people, which made Gervis feel touched by her from the bottom of his heart.
"You're welcome, Master Harry! I'll be leaving first then."
After handing a few notebooks to Gervis, Adela saw Gervis's eyes and her pretty face immediately turned slightly red.
Knowing that his actions might easily lead to misunderstanding, he immediately said goodbye to Gervis.
"Go slowly, Adela-san!"
Gervis did not stop Adela, he just said goodbye and then watched Adela walk away!
