Chapter 4: Brave Bar, Magic Potion Recipe

Chapter 4: Brave Bar, Magic Potion Recipe

Gray Lint lowered his voice and said: "I heard that as long as you can decipher the manuscript left by Emperor Russell, you can gain great power!"

"Indeed." Hastur answered in the affirmative.

If you can understand Chinese characters, the value of Russell's manuscript can be described as priceless. Of course, some less serious content needs to be removed, such as the taste of the witch is really good.

Gray Linte sighed: "I have two or three of them here, but I haven't been able to decipher the contents."

Hastur smiled and said: "I am an admirer of Emperor Russell, and I want to collect the manuscripts he left behind in this world. If you are willing to sell them, I am willing to buy them for 100 pounds each."

"No need to go to such trouble." Gray Lint smiled and waved his hand: "I have given you the manuscripts here. If you can decipher the contents, I hope you can tell me."

"must."

Hastur smiled and agreed, this was a sure-fire deal.

Before leaving, Hastur asked Gray Lint to help him pay attention to the manuscripts of Emperor Russell.

On the one hand, he was really interested in these diaries, but on the other hand, he also planned to hoard a bunch of them and sell them to the extremely wealthy Miss Justice.

Well, they are sold at a price of 500 pounds each. I believe Miss Justice will generously spend this small amount of money.

Carrying a huge sum of 2,000 pounds, Hastur naturally did not choose to walk back by himself. Instead, he hired a carriage and went to Backlund Bank, the largest bank in Backlund, to deposit 1,000 pounds before returning to his home.

The door was still closed and the door lock was intact. Most of Hasta's worries were gone. He walked in and went up to the second floor. He checked the drawer where the pocket watch was stored and found that nothing was missing.

"It seems that the security level in the West District is pretty good."

Hasta smiled and went to the study on the left side, placing the three introductory books on law that he took from Backlund University today on the desk.

After staring at it for a long time, Hastur sighed. He had already got the books back, so he could only worry about it.

…

Wednesday, February 28, 1349.

Hastur got up from the bed and yawned. It was already around ten o'clock in the evening when he returned home last night. He suppressed his sleepiness and watched the introduction to the law for an hour. He was really exhausted.

When he fell asleep, he came to the Hall of Stars again. He observed the Djinn and Mr. Men for a while, then exited the Hall of Stars and fell asleep completely.

Get up, get dressed, go to the bathroom to freshen up, then go downstairs to the kitchen on the right, and continue to have honey water and oatmeal bread for breakfast.

He was a little tired. If he wasn't really hungry, he would have wanted to try some other food.

After breakfast, I went up to the second floor, changed into a new set of clothes, and then went out wearing a top hat and holding a cane.

Today he is going to visit some friends of the original owner, mainly to report that he is safe so as not to worry them, thereby attracting the attention of the church power, and at the same time to buy some ingredients that he likes to eat.

He didn't want to eat oatmeal bread for breakfast every day. If he could buy some rice, cook some porridge and add some side dishes, that would be the food that best suited his taste.

Of course, it would be better if you can cook a bowl of rice to eat.

After leaving the house, he spent 6 pence and took a car to the house of his first noble friend. After a pleasant chat, Hastur naturally stayed at that friend's house for lunch.

After lunch, Hastur first went to St. Samuel's Church in the North District, which is the headquarters of the Church of the Night Goddess in Backlund Parish.

If Hastur were asked to choose a true god to believe in, he would definitely throw himself into the arms of the Night Goddess without hesitation.

After staying in the church for half an hour, Hasta turned to the most prosperous Hillston area of ​​Backlund.

This is the economic, commercial and financial center of the Loen Kingdom, with the Backlund Stock Exchange, clearing house, futures center, seven major bank headquarters, various trust funds, various railway companies, and various bulk cargo trading companies.

Hasta walked around with great interest. It was already around three o'clock in the afternoon. He went to another friend's house nearby and enjoyed afternoon tea amidst a pleasant conversation.

As night fell, Hastur had already appeared at the third friend's home. He couldn't refuse his friend's warm hospitality, so he could only stay there to have dinner together.

After the visit, Hastur took a walk on the street to eat. He was very satisfied with his busy schedule today.

Back in the West End, he spent 12 soles on a lot of beef, steaks, pork chops, vegetables, two loaves of oatmeal bread, and a piece of tasok fish suitable for baking. Unfortunately, he did not buy any rice that could be used for cooking.

After transporting the ingredients back home, Hastur went upstairs to take a shower, changed into a simpler set of casual clothes, locked the doors and windows of the building, and headed to the Brave Bar in a carriage.

Although the original owner had been in Backlund for many years, he had not attended many extraordinary gatherings, let alone any fixed extraordinary gatherings.

Hastur had no choice but to choose the Brave Bar, an extraordinary gathering place that was relatively secluded, and he might even have a chance to meet Miss Sharon.

Even if you can't meet him, it's not a bad idea to get acquainted here first.

Hastur spent 5 pence on a glass of Southwell beer to try. He took a sip and smacked it in his mouth. It tasted okay, but he didn't want to take a second sip.

After wandering around for a while, I found Kaspars Kanlinen outside the No. 3 billiards room. In his slightly surprised eyes, he calmly said that he was introduced by the "old man".

"come in."

Hastur walked in, and the other person in the room left voluntarily and closed the door at the same time.

Caspars, who had rosacea, stared at Hastur with a somewhat evil look and said, "What do you want?"

"I want to be part of tonight's extraordinary party."

"Five pounds."

I remember that Xiao Ke only spent 2 pounds to successfully attend the party. When it was his turn, it was directly increased to 5 pounds!

Is this because you are young and want to take advantage of yourself?

Hastur hesitated for a moment, but decided to spend 5 pounds to solve the problem.

"You are so generous."

Looking at the 5-pound note handed over by Hasta, Kaspars was slightly startled, then thought for a moment and said: "People like you are not suitable to enter that dangerous and crazy world."

Hasta smiled and said: "I just came here to take a look and gain some knowledge."

Kaspars said nothing more, his kind reminder was only one.

After walking out of the billiard room, Kaspars gave a few instructions and led Hastur through the back door of the kitchen, into the alley behind, and around to a dark house.

He took out an iron mask that could only cover the upper half of his face, handed it to Hastur, and said in a deep voice: "Wearing a mask can reduce unnecessary trouble for you, if you don't want people to recognize you. "

"Thanks for the reminder." Hastur took the iron mask and put it on, messing up his hair a little.

Seeing that he was ready, Kaspars knocked on the door rhythmically.

Seven or eight seconds later, a small piece of wood on the door was pulled open, revealing a pair of brown eyes.

After looking at it for a moment, he opened the door and handed Hastur a set of hooded robes with dissatisfaction.

Then, he led Hastur into the door, passed through the dark living room, and came to the living room on the first floor.

There was a candle lit on the coffee table indoors, emitting a faint yellow light, and a dozen or so people could be vaguely seen sitting around it.

Hastur naturally walked to a corner and sat down, waiting for the party to continue.

Soon, the calm atmosphere was broken. Some people were looking for magic potions, some were looking for sequence formulas, some were selling magical items, and some were selling extraordinary weapons.

Hastur just listened quietly and watched the orderly transaction between them.

It's a pity that he didn't hear the pharmacist's unscrupulous voice and speaking style.

As the transaction came to an end, the wise old man sitting on the single sofa looked in the direction of Hastur, "New friend, do you have any needs?"

"I want the magic potion formula from the Sequence 9 lawyer. I'll pay in gold pounds. The price is negotiable." Hastur said his purpose.

When he heard that a female Beyonder was selling weapons, he knew that he could buy the lawyer's potion formula from her tonight.

"I can sell it to you, but I want 300 pounds."

Maybe she felt that the price she was asking was a bit high, so she added, "I'm not that short of money for the time being."

"Can."

Hastur agreed to the deal, not caring about the small premium.

The most important thing is that tonight she sold her the Sequence 9 lawyer's formula at a premium, and in the future she will sell her the Sequence 8 barbarian's potion formula at a double price.

He knew the magic potion formula for the Sequence 8 barbarians and the Sequence 7 briber of the Black Emperor path, but he did not know the potion formula for the starting Sequence 9 lawyer.

After being notarized by the Eye of Wisdom, the transaction is completed.

Sure enough, the lady who sold the magic potion formula to her lawyer asked for the barbarian potion formula.

Judging from her tone, she wasn't in a hurry yet, maybe because the potion hadn't been fully digested yet.

Hastur remained silent and waited until he attended the party again before selling the barbarian formula to her at a double premium.

Time passed quickly, and he didn't need anything else except the lawyer's potion formula. He waited for the entire party to end before the participants left here one by one.

When going out, Hastur returned the hooded robe to the gatekeeper, and returned to the Brave Bar with the impression he had when he came.

Kaspars was quite surprised to see Hastur come back and said: "It's really good to be able to come back alive."

"As long as you can control your desires, you will naturally not die easily."

Hastur replied with a smile and bought Caspars a glass of Southwell beer for 5 pence.

It was getting late, so he didn't stop at the Brave Man's Bar. He went out and waited for a carriage before returning home.

"Restraining desires sounds simple, but how many people can completely stick to this point."

Kaspars heard the voice behind him and asked curiously: "Are you interested in that young man?"

Maric said from behind: "The reason why desire is called desire is because it is difficult to satisfy the human heart."

Kaspars chuckled and said: "Now I only have the desire to earn gold pounds. I want to make more money so that I can retire early."
