"Got it!" Downton responded lightly and ignored the loyal servant. Although this guy didn't speak, he almost had greed etched on his face as he stared at the 'Hundred Warriors' suit.
"The boss has some habits, I think you must be eager to know, and if I say a few good words for you, you might even be able to become a supervisor."
The loyal servant showed a arrogant attitude and reported the orders he heard from Dauphink in advance, using this as a price to ask for reward.
"A set of armor is definitely not enough. Why don't you give me half of the thirty thousand gold coins!" The loyal servant was calculating how much he could get, but when he saw Downton and Hamlet turning away, he was stunned and quickly shouted
People, "Hey, wait!"
"Huh? Is there anything else?" Downton deliberately pretended not to see the loyal servant's intention and blinked his doubtful eyes.
"Uh, well, with me here, it's easier for you to gain the trust of the master, so, do you understand?" The loyal servant was about to die, but he didn't expect to meet an idiot. He took out his wallet, held it in his palm, and shook it.
Got it.
"Oh, you want to give me a gift, I understand." Downton took the money bag away, not bothering to talk to his loyal servant. Seeing that this guy only dared to show up after the overseer left, it shows that he
He doesn't have much status, and even if he is a close confidant, Downton doesn't want to wrong him.
The loyal servant was dumbfounded and wanted to pursue him again. He even wanted to clarify the subtext, but six ghouls stood in front of him, blocking his way.
"Bah, if you don't respect me, you will be in trouble!" The loyal servant spat, looking at the silent demon servant, he finally didn't dare to talk nonsense.
"He's asking for money from you. You'll suffer a lot with your attitude." Hamlet hesitated for a moment. Then he said it. He didn't want Downton to be in trouble, but he also didn't want to see him kneel down and lick someone else.
"There has never been anyone who wants me to accompany you with a smiling face, and there will never be anyone in the future!" Downton clenched his fists, "If you want to cause trouble for me, be prepared to be beaten down."
"Very good, it didn't embarrass our status as Paladins!"
Hamlet patted Downton on the shoulder, and a relieved smile emerged from the corner of his mouth. To be honest, the moment he learned that Downton was exempted from the ore tax and stood up to challenge the foremen, he regarded this young man as someone he could befriend.
friend.
"Downton, I'm sorry, I was so frightened that day. In fact, I was very worried about you."
Gotze suddenly ran up to Downton and stopped him to apologize. He regretted it so much now. If he had established a good relationship with Downton and became a confidant, he wouldn't have to work exhaustingly in the mines.
"Well, I understand." Downton stretched out his arm, pushed Gotze aside, and called to Hamlet, "I have some fine wine. Please taste it."
"Doctrine does not allow Paladins to drink alcohol, which will make our will less firm." Harley refused, "I only drink water."
"This is a celebration, exceptions can be made!" Downton regarded Harley as a friend, otherwise he would not have given him the victory wine that had been stored in the cellar for three thousand years.
Gotze knew that his behavior at the mine gate would never be forgiven by Downton.
"I'm just telling you, how could such a powerful person be friends with a weakling like you?" Several miners came over and hugged Gotze back to the dormitory, "Don't be stunned. Hurry up and get hot water.
We want to soak our feet."
"My clothes are also dirty. They can't be washed before tomorrow. Just wait until they are repaired!"
The miners were laughing and joking, and Gotze seemed to be among the crowd, but he couldn't blend in at all. He was just an unlucky guy who was manipulated and bullied by everyone in the dormitory.
Gotze couldn't understand why two people entered the Dagger Mine at the same time, but their experiences were so different. Not only did Downton become the chief foreman, he was also personally promoted by the boss.
When he thought about his one-month miner's career, Gotze didn't know how he could hold on. If it weren't for the fact that he was surrounded by sentry towers and guards, he really wanted to escape.
After all, Jackson was unable to eat fresh brains and internal organs. For Downton, this was a very uncomfortable eating habit for him, but the soul remains were not wasted and were absorbed by the grimoire.
In the foreman's building, without Downton's orders, a diligent miner had already cleaned out a room and was waiting for him to move in.
The cronies chosen by Downton all straightened their chests and looked proud. Of course, they also supported the big taskmaster even more.
"Hannah and the others may want to cause trouble for you, so be careful." Hamlet hesitated for a moment and then said it.
"Already found it." The door to the war space opened, and the bronze arm not only brought out a barrel of fine wine, but also took out two gorgeously crafted silver wine glasses.
"You're not hurt, are you?" Harley knows Hannah's strength. If there's a fight, Downton will definitely be crushed. "If you meet them again, just push me!"
"Drink a glass. This is a fine wine that has been stored in the cellar for many years." Downton took a sip, savoring the sweetness, and handed the other glass to Harley.
Downton did this on purpose. With his status, he naturally couldn't get this kind of wine. As long as Harley wasn't stupid, he could guess the origin, not to mention Hannah said it.
Grimoire understood that Downton wanted to see if Harley was approaching him in order to obtain the secrets of Crow Ridge Dungeon, but this kind of temptation was too risky.
Downton, even with all his firepower, can't defeat Harley.
"Good wine!" Looking at the red wine, Harley praised it and pushed Downton's arm away, "Thank you, just give me a glass of water."
Harley is a devout believer who abides by the commandments. Even when faced with the fragrant wine of victory, he can resist the urge to eat and drink.
"Has anyone ever told you that your name is like a prince?" Downton thought of Shakespeare's masterpiece that he had told Celes, and now a 'Hamlet' was standing in front of him, which made him feel a little incredible.
"No!" Harley's eyelids twitched, his eyes drooped, and he shook his head slightly.
During the chat, Harley didn't mention Crow Ridge. Instead, he analyzed Downton's current situation and what he could do to turn the crisis around.
"It's getting late, I have to go back and meditate." Harley's life is very regular. He glanced at the sky through the window, stood up and left, "If you have any trouble, just come to me."
"Yeah!" Downton sent Harley away and closed the door. He saw Jackson standing by the table, scratching his head and wanting to drink the wine, but he didn't dare to take it.
"He is a true paladin with perfect conduct." Homer praised, this kind of moral addiction is rarer than legendary weapons.
"Drink if you want!" Downton relented. Although Jackson was still afraid of death, he had killed several people, which relieved him a lot of pressure and deserved a reward.
"The master is wise!" Before Jackson could finish praising him, he grabbed the wine glass and poured it into his mouth. The sweet taste made it bubble beautifully.
"The herbs I bought from the tauren Balak haven't been used yet. I'll process them all today. Just treat it as practice." Downton was not sleepy and didn't want to go to the dungeon to hunt ghouls, so he prepared to practice potion preparation.
.
"Yes, the experimental building of the potion industry giant has been prepared for you and you can enter at any time." The magic book floated in the air, projecting two beams of light, forming a red cross, and then unfolded to form a light door.
.
Downton steps in.
It was dark all around, and Downton quickly took the oil lamp handed to him by Grimoire.
The dim light spreads.
What appeared in the field of vision was a twelve-sided hall. The walls were all made of some kind of white metal, full of texture.
It must be that no one has been here for a long time, because the ground is covered with thick dust, and Downton walked through it, leaving footprints one after another.
"Enter the door at ten o'clock." The magic book floated over, stretched out his elemental arm, pressed a few times on the magic lock above, and the metal door slid open to both sides with a 'chi' sound.
"It seems to be an abandoned laboratory!" Tang Zheng frowned, "How is the equipment maintained?"
"It's not abandoned. This is a laboratory that was built and owned by the seventeenth owner of the Grimoire. It's just that it's too old and looks very old." Homer explained, "Don't worry, all the instruments have been
I sealed it and it was not damaged."
"Didn't you say that the experimental building you gave me belongs to the Umbrella Company? And they don't have a branch in the Western Continent!" Downton looked at the building style that he didn't recognize at all and was very surprised, "Don't we think we are no longer in Delan?"
Is it a blessing?"
"Yes, don't ask about the specific location, I won't tell you." Magic Book comforted, "This is for your own good."
"Okay." Downton also understood that he was too weak to share the secrets of the grimoire. In order not to be depressed, he changed the subject, "There are traces made by sharp blades on the wall. Could it be that there was a battle here?"
"Well, there was a biochemical poison leakage incident, and some monsters were infected, but don't worry, it has been completely disinfected and there will be no residue." The magic book projected the magic flame text, a little sad, came here again, let it
It brought back many memories.
Following the grimoire, Downton entered a pharmacy room. The place was very spacious with six rows of rectangular tables, which served as a platform for experiments.
At the back are ten large glass cabinets, storing various equipment and commonly used medicines.
"Fortunately, we all know each other." Downton breathed a sigh of relief. The big library had done a good job. The books he borrowed were introduced in detail, so that he would not be blinded.
"Let's clean up first, and then recite the laboratory manual. I don't want you to be killed or disabled by some chemicals because of wrong experimental steps." The magic book found a cabinet with familiarity and took out the mop.
and bucket.
"Get to work!" Downton worked very hard. After all, the entire experimental building was his property from now on, so he naturally had to keep it tidy.
"The steps to configure the primary treatment potion are very simple. Considering your level, it shouldn't take much time, so I have prepared a new potion formula for you. In addition to training your operation, it can also improve your meditation after use.
Efficiency." The grimoire has already seen the herbal reserves in the war space, and they are just right.
"What kind of potion is it?" Downton mopped the floor and thought of another question, "By the way, what is the name of the experimental building?" (To be continued...)
