"My teacher is not willing to meet just anyone, let alone help you refine potions."
What Tian Linger said was right. Based on the attitude of ordinary people towards outsiders, if it weren't for Harlan's leaves, Sherlock's situation would be exactly as the other party said.
"It's okay, just help me bring him to him."
"It's not impossible, but what's the benefit of telling you me." The girl folded her hands in front of her chest and tapped her arm regularly with her left index finger.
"You put forward the conditions, and I'll think about it." Transaction is Shylock's favorite way of communication. If the conditions are reasonable, he doesn't mind an equal exchange.
"Hey, you are so boring. You can tell at a glance that you don't have a girlfriend, and you can negotiate terms." Tian Linger complained after hearing this.
"Pfft!" It was obviously the good thing you mentioned first, but in the end it was blamed on me, and it had something to do with whether he had a girlfriend or not. He felt like he could hardly hold back the blood.
"Forget it, come with me, I'm just going to find my teacher." The joke was enough, Tian Linger stopped entertaining the other party, and led the person to a shack while walking around.
The hut is the most basic building in the tree camp, and its structure is very simple. However, this hut located in the southwest corner of the camp is particularly simple, even to the point of being shabby.
Shouldn't all skill masters have high-end shops like Thorin and Newt?
With this suspicion in mind, Sherlock followed Tian Linger and walked in. As soon as he entered the room, a strange fragrance came over him, accompanied by a cheerful laughter.
"Xiao Tian, you are back. This time my peace potion finally succeeded. I can't help but try it." A male centaur with clothes on his upper body and cream-yellow fur on his lower body appeared in front of him.
.
"Hey, look who you brought, a half-elf druid, is he your little boyfriend?" Firenze saw the figure behind his apprentice and said a little surprised, "Welcome, I am Xiaoda's potion
"Study Tutor, Firenze"
It turns out that her mentor also called her Xiaotian. Normally, wouldn't it sound better to call her Ling'er?
"Hello, Master Firenze, my name is Sherlock, and I am Tian Linger's friend." Sherlock was also stunned by this centaur's unusual behavior.
Centaurs are usually topless, and women may cover part of their bodies, but it's never been seen like Firenze wearing a piece of clothing directly on the body.
What's even more strange is his attitude towards himself. Even if he is a friend of his apprentice, he doesn't have to be so enthusiastic. But it is rare for him to accept a human as an apprentice. Their knowledge of their own race is very rare.
Very strictly protected.
"Don't be restrained, Sherlock. What do you want to drink? Pumpkin juice or butterbeer. Oh, there are still minors here, so let's have some pumpkin juice." Firenze put a cup of yellow drink in front of him,
"I made it myself, I hope you like it, and it's yours too, Xiaotian."
"Teacher, you won't add anything strange in it this time." Tian Linger took the pumpkin juice but did not drink it, but smelled it first.
"Don't worry, I only added a little more mint this time." He took a sip first to show his innocence, "Well, it seems like I added a little too much."
Although this centaur seems unusual, since Harlan asked him to find the person and the name matches, there shouldn't be much of a problem.
After taking a sip of pumpkin juice, Sherlock took out Harlan's leaves and said, "Master Firenze, I have something very important to do this time and I need your help."
Then he explained the whole story.
"That's the principle. It seems that this plague is very difficult. Even Harlan can't do anything about it." Firenze put down the pumpkin juice in his hand and looked confused. "You don't mind if I draw some blood from you."
I'm afraid this plague isn't a problem. If I just send a letter and get the antidote, the reward for this mission won't be that generous.
"You guys chat first, I'm going to the laboratory to do some research." Firenze took the blood sample and walked into a cubicle with four hooves.
With only two people left, Sherlock finally couldn't bear the curiosity and asked: "Tian Linger, why is your teacher different from other people?"
"I don't know either. I was like this when I met the teacher. Do you think my teacher is good?"
"It's pretty good, at least better than other centaurs."
"I think so too, but the other people in the camp don't seem to like him very much." Tian Linger said with a little anger in his tone.
Different people are always unpopular. This principle applies to any ethnic group.
"Tian Linger, is your teacher's alchemy level very high?" It doesn't matter whether you are a weird person or not. The level of life skills is what Sherlock really cares about.
One was related to his mission, and the other was that he took the opportunity to secretly learn some knowledge about refining medicine. He was still very attracted by the Centaur tribe's unique medicine refining technology.
"Why, I want to learn. To be honest, my teacher is a master of alchemy, and he will not accept a disciple so easily." Tian Linger became more excited when talking about Firenze's level of alchemy, and said with a proud face,
"But if you call me Senior Sister, I can still put in a nice word for you in front of Master."
If you want a grown man in his twenties to call an underage sister, you will know that this is impossible.
So Sherlock didn't even think about it.
"Senior sister! From now on, your business is my business."
Most of the master-level NPCs in life are hard to come by. Look at how many players paid money to help Thorin work when he was a senior blacksmith. Now that a master-level alchemist is in front of you, who can't be tempted?
.
If you want a master-level NPC to accept you as a disciple, you have to brush up your favorability level first. If Tian Linger can really help him get started, he really doesn't mind at all if it's just a verbal advantage.
.
"Then you agreed, if it succeeds, you will always call me senior sister from now on." Tian Linger enjoyed this title very much.
"Let me think about it." If you are going to be taken advantage of in the future, you still need to think about it. The contractual spirit of professional players will not allow them to go back on their word.
"You still have to consider such a cost-effective deal. You don't know how many people have asked to be my teacher's apprentice, but he has rejected them. If I don't help you, you have absolutely no hope."
Tian Linger's words are not unreasonable. As long as the price is fair, he has no reason to refuse any transaction. "Okay, but are you sure about it?"
