Chapter 342: Chapter 336, Body Strengthening Potion l
The cloaked man paused momentarily, looking at the two standing before his spread out display.
Just as he finished setting up his wares, these two had already showed up.
Subconsciously, he adjusted his hood slightly, speaking softly, “What can I do for you two?”
From his voice, he seemed to be a young man under the cloak.
Probably not much more than twenty years old.
“Not much! Just curious about what you’re selling?” Fang Hao casually replied.
“Oh, these are just a few small potions that I’ve concocted,” The cloaked man responded nonchalantly.
He then began to take out his concocted potions from his bag.
And displayed them on the linen cloth in front of him.
Unlike the glass bottle potions made by the Alchemist Guild, the cloaked man’s potions were packaged in crude pottery jars.
They looked like potions concocted by some amateur.
Some passing mercenaries glanced at his potions briefly and then turned to leave.
Potions could certainly save lives, but they also posed some risks.
Given the same ingredients, potions might turn into poison depending on the alchemist’s mix ratio.
Who would dare to gamble with their lives, especially in a life-or-death situation?
Fang Hao picked up a bottle casually to inspect.
[Physical Enhancement Potion]
[Category: Level 2 Potion]
[Effect: Enhances physical strength]
(Description: Physical Enhancement Potion created by alchemist, can enhance physical strength when taken, no usage requirements.)
Seeing the potion’s properties, Fang Hao’s eyes lit up slightly.
The crude pottery bottle felt rough and uneven in his grasp, but the potion’s properties were quite exceptional.
He had always envied Zhang Bin and the others for their Enlightening Potions, that endowed them with exceptional physique.
Especially after Rolana’s recent attack on him, he realized his own inadequacies.
If he ever faced an enemy, his ability to defend himself would be quite limited.
Mages were still at a disadvantage in close combat.
However, this Physical Enhancement Potion that he held didn’t have any user requirements which meant that even he could use it.
Fang Hao held the potion in his hand, not interjecting or interrupting him.
When the man finally took out all of his six potions, each one was quite crudely packaged.
[Physical Enhancement Potion] [Seal Potion] [Magic Power Potion] and 3 [Healing Potions].
[Seal Potion]
[Category: Level 2 potion]
[Effect: Underwater breathing+10 seconds.]
(Description: Physical strength enhancement potion created by Alchemist, can enhance physical strength when consumed, no usage requirements.)
The Seal Potion must fall under the category of special potions.
Those adventuring near Lyss City would seldom encounter situations requiring underwater exploration.
The remaining potions were for healing injuries and restoring magical power.
Fang Hao had seen these before.
The cloaked man only had six different potions, but based on their properties, they were all up to the standard of enhancement potions.
They were in no way inferior to those produced by the Alchemist’s Guild.
“Do you need anything, sir?” The cloaked man asked in a soft voice as he looked down.
He noticed that Fang Hao had not moved, but remained standing, selecting items from his spread out goods.
“Are these all made by you?”
Fang Hao squatted down to ask. The cloaked man tugged his hood lower again.
“Yes, sir. They may look a bit rough, but I can assure you their effects are similar to regular potions.”
The cloaked man was well aware that his potions didn’t look that appealing, and paled in comparison to those sold by the Alchemist’s Guild.
“How much are they?” Fang Hao continued to inquire.
“The Life Potions and Magic Potions are 50 gold coins each, and the remaining level 2 potions are 200 gold coins each,” The cloaked man replied somewhat hastily.
He seemed like a first-timer in potion selling and was visibly nervous.
“Good, I’ll take them all. Please pack them for me,” Fang Hao stated directly. “Ah! Ah? You’re taking them all?” The cloaked man looked up in surprise, meeting Fang Hao’s gaze, before quickly lowering his head again.
However, in that one fleeting moment, Fang Hao saw a young man under the cloak. Still, half of his face was of a strange dark red color.
It looked like the scale of some red phosphoric serpent he had seen before — mildly disturbing.
“Yep, if you have any stock, I can buy it all”. Fang Hao stood up, shaking his slightly numb legs.
Given the price of alchemy potions, this one was unbelievably cheap.
Without the ability to check attributes, Fang Hao would never have dared to buy such a cheap, simply packaged potion.
Even if its praises were sung, he wouldn’t dare to drink it.
But as a transmigrator, he could check its attributes and, as such, relieve this concern.
The effects were all labeled, there was no chance of buying poison.
“Oh, okay, thank you very much for your generosity.” The cloaked man hurriedly turned around, pulled out a linen bag and put all six potions inside.
Fang Hao took out 600 gold coins and handed them over when he received the bag.
“By the way, if you still sell potions in the future, I’d like to continue dealing with you.” Fang Hao did not leave right away.
The cloaked man froze.
With his head slightly lowered, he seemed to hesitate, “Sir, while I can make potions, the materials are difficult to come by. It may take some time before I can produce new potions.”
Fang Hao thought for a moment, then said, “In that case, there is an Enjoyable Hotpot Restaurant in the city, which I own. As long as you can deliver the potions to the restaurant, they will buy them at a fair price.”
“Ah, so that’s your shop.” He had seen the rabbit girls performing in front of it yesterday, it was quite a lively scene.
“You can also make some higher-level potions. I will purchase them at their cost price when the time comes.” Fang Hao continued.
“Alright, sir,” the cloaked man slung his backpack over his shoulder, thanked Fang Hao, and quickly left.
Fang Hao watched him as he went.
For such a strictly managed place as Lyss, it’s surprising that a half-demon expert in alchemy lives there.
Really surprising.
After spending another day in the city.
The next morning.
Fang Hao left Lyss and set up a few Troop Hiding Caves in a grey bear village along the way.
He rushed back to his territory by dusk.
After dinner, the skeleton merchant, Doujin, entered the hall.
“Lord.” Doujin bowed slightly, holding a parcel.
“Hmm, Doujin, have a seat and speak.” Fang Hao smiled.
Instead of sitting, Doujin handed the parcel to Fang Hao.
He said, “My lord, these are the Sound-Transmitting Shells you ordered from the Alliance. The deal was finalized yesterday.”
It had been several days since he had placed the order for the Soundtransmitting Shells. If Doujin hadn’t reminded him, he would’ve almost forgotten about them.
Fang Hao took the parcel; there were five Sound-transmitting Shells inside.
“Oh, good. Has anything been going on with the Trade Alliance lately?” Fang Hao asked casually.
“Everything is smooth, my lord.” Doujin replied.
“Oh, that’s good!”
The two chatted for a while, then Doujin left the hall.
Now, Fang Hao was alone in the hall.
He took out the Body Enhancement Potion he bought today, stretched his body, opened the cap, and gulped it down.
The cool liquid slid down his throat.
He could feel his body starting to heat up, then prickling, and finally unbearable pain.
It felt as though countless iron spikes were piercing his flesh.
He writhed for a while on the White Bone Throne, but the pain gradually faded.
A sense of strength pervaded his body.
Pulling off his shirt, he revealed his well-defined muscles.
Just as Fang Hao was admiring his physique.
The system notification suddenly sounded.
