EP037. Small blue bottle

The secret organization also established to protect world peace, compared to SHIELD, Kama Taj has a longer history and heritage, and his style of conduct is much more reliable.

After all, the members of the organization are all mages. After more or less mastering some extraordinary abilities, the mages' personal strength has exceeded the scope that national institutions can manage. In addition, Kama Taj has never been exposed to the world, so whether in daily life or combat operations, mages will not be restricted and managed by official institutions.

Detached from the outside world is one of the biggest characteristics of the Kama Taj power.

However, everything has two sides.

Although it is not restricted to dealing with ZF institutions and living a hidden life, it is certainly unlimited. But on the other hand, it is precisely because of adhering to this tradition that deliberately reduces contact with the world that Kama Taj's source of economic resources is restricted... Not to mention that it is compared with S.H.I.E.D., which can get countless grants every year and set up new projects from time to time to ask for additional financial support, it may even be inferior to those ancient temples and famous temples located in famous scenic spots.

Let’s take a look at the original plot of "Avengers 3". Strange and Wang were even poor enough to search all over the body, and they could not even afford a hamburger. Some of this is because Strange was overkill (after taking over as the Supreme Mage, in order to avoid the old path of ancient 1, he attracted the covetousness of the demon gods of different dimensions and brought new threats to the earth, he sealed all the "treasures" of Kama Taj), but overall, the real key is because Kama Taj's economic foundation is too thin.

And now...

Perhaps he was in power for too long and had already mastered the measure, or perhaps because his personality was quite lively, Gu Yi would occasionally relax his constraints on himself, act cheaply, and give Kama Taj some extra money.

In terms of economic conditions, it is indeed much better than Strange's successor.

But it is obvious that Kama Taj, led by Gu Yi, is still not as rich as S.H.E.L.D. and Stark. He purchased potions in large quantities from Shi Xiaolei at a price of 10,000 meters of gold. Even if he hollowed out Gu Yi's private treasury, he could not bear it.

What's more, what Gu Yi really liked was not the red, black and white potions that Shi Xiaolei had taken out before, but the vitality potion displayed at the party that time.

As a mage, we pay more attention to the length of the blue bar.

Gu Yi didn't care much about the healing effect of the vitality potion, but the blue-return function it comes with is not something she can't underestimate. After all, this is Marvel, and the setting is completely different from other magical worlds - the mages themselves have no source of magic power, and they must borrow the power of Weishandi to successfully cast various magic.

Even though Emperor Weishan is easy to talk about and the interest rate is very low, he will occasionally engage in interest-free activities, but after all, the borrowed money will have to be paid back.

Gu Yi herself doesn't have to worry. After all, she has signed a contract with Yongheng, who is a bigger leader, and after her death, she will go directly to the great god to be a follower. With the ability of Emperor Weishan, she dare not give Yongheng face and go to find the account of Gu Yi who was protected by him.

But what about other mages who are not protected by the Eternal God?

Maybe it’s the soul, or maybe it’s some other price, the debt you should pay back will definitely not be able to be repaid.

Just as the teacher felt sorry for the students, Gu Yi was also very concerned about his disciples. It is because of this that she found Shi Xiaolei and talked about cooperation with him - the vitality potion with the effect of returning to the blue can be used as a source of magic. Although it cannot completely replace Emperor Weishan, with its support, the mages can owe some less debts. When it comes time to pay back, the pressure will not be so great.

As for why only vitality potion is mentioned, I didn’t mention the mana potion specially used to restore the blue...

Influenced by the "system", Gu Yi was unable to see through Shi Xiaolei's future with the power of the time gem, and at most he could only push the timeline to the "present". Simply put, it was a bit similar to watching a live broadcast. She could "far" see what Shi Xiaolei did and what treasures she took out, but she could not know what Shi Xiaolei would do in the future, and whether she had hidden or not taken out.

Shi Xiaolei had never taken out the magic potion, so Gu Yi naturally didn't know the existence of this potion.

"Give it, you try this."

"Hmm? This is..." Gu Yi was a little surprised when he looked at the bottle of Lan Youyou in Shi Xiaolei's hand.

"A potion specially used to restore mana." Shi Xiaolei said with a smile: "It is indeed a disadvantage that cannot cure injuries. But in terms of the effect of restoring mana, it is not worse than purple potion. Considering that its price is about one-tenth of purple potion, I personally think it should meet your requirements more."

After blinking, Gu Yi opened the bottle stopper and gently took a sip of the potion in the small bottle.

He carefully felt the fluctuations of magic and confirmed the effect of the potion. After a moment, Gu Yi opened his eyes and smiled with satisfaction: "Indeed, it is more suitable for the mage."

"It's fine if you're satisfied."

"Yes, I'm very satisfied." Gu nodded: "SO, let's talk about how to trade."

It is obviously not feasible to pay money in one hand and deliver goods in the other. After all, Kama Taj is not SHIELD. If Shi Xiaolei only accepts money transactions, they will not be able to afford it.

Therefore, after consultation with Gu Yi, the two sides made a slightly special agreement.

Shi Xiaolei supplies Kama Taj with 1,200 bottles of blue potions, plus 120 bottles of purple potions every year. In return, Kama Taj opens the door of convenience to Shi Xiaolei...

If he summoned his companions in the future, or some of his friends who are strong in life, are talented and want to learn magic, Kama Taj will accept them as agreed and guide them conscientiously.

On the contrary, if Shi Xiaolei's side does not have the need to "commissioned and borrowed study", then every three years, he can get an opportunity to enter the Kama Taj Treasure House and choose a magic item he likes for himself or his companions.

"Of course, the premise of choosing is to control the magic item 100%. "Gu Yi squeezed his eyes and said with a smile: "You also know that some of the magic items collected by Kama Taj are very dangerous, such as "The Book of Cariostro".

"No problem." Shi Xiaolei agreed without hesitation: "I'm not Casillas..."

Halfway through his words, Shi Xiaolei realized that he was being trapped.

"Sure enough, it's the same as I guess." Gu Yi smiled.

"That, that..."

"Relax, I didn't say what to do with you. Moreover, the future is not constant." As he said, Gu Yi raised the small blue bottle in his hand and shook it: "Here, there is a variable here that will affect the future direction, right?"

"Ah? You mean..."

"I didn't say anything."
