Shuge watched with great expectation and enthusiasm as Gerald opened the compartment of the carriage. The store owner with Eastern ogre blood stretched out his thick and powerful arms and began to put the things on the carriage.
Remove things from the carriage.
It was a huge wooden box that looked quite heavy. The lid of the wooden box was nailed shut, but Xiuge could still smell some strange smell from the cracks in the lid.
Xiuge didn't find it strange. After all, the things he needed were complex in composition and most of them were parts from magical creatures. It would be abnormal if they had no smell.
"It's all in here."
Gerald helped Shuge move the wooden box into the foyer of the old house, and then reached out and patted the wooden box twice: "To be honest, Mr. Ernst, your request for these materials is really too tricky.
I almost rummaged through the entire warehouse and could only gather these three copies."
Upon hearing these words, the enthusiasm in Xiuge's heart suddenly subsided, and at the same time, an extremely ominous premonition came over him.
"Wait a minute, Mr. Gerrard...if there are only three copies? Then why use such a big box?"
"Because two of them are heavy and take up a lot of space."
Gerald turned a blind eye to the surprise shown by Xiuge. As he explained, he reached out and grabbed the edge of the wooden box lid. His thick arm suddenly exerted force and actually lifted the nailed lid completely.
Come on.
An extremely terrible smell rushed out of the box and swept through the entire foyer at an alarming speed.
"A bottle of adult changelings' body fluid essence."
"One last thing...just go away."
The first is a wooden box that looks quite delicate and clean. It seems to be a multi-layered structure. The outside is covered with a layer of red velvet. On the velvet, a four-winged harpy is drawn with its body and wings stretched out.
"Grass!"
Boss Gerard's resistance to this weird smell was obviously very strong. He stretched out his hand with a calm expression and took out the things placed in the wooden box one by one.
As for the basket of hair...
The latter obviously didn't want to stay here any longer. He slapped a prepared receipt on the wooden box, turned around and took two steps, then turned back to remind: "By the way, Mr. Ernst... I don't care about you.
I plan to do something with those swamp monster hairs, but I personally suggest you do it before their smell is gone. Once their smell is gone, they will no longer be fresh!"
In the groove where Shuge's first magic was engraved, the pattern of black tentacles was twisting slowly. As Shuge watched, it became active, and those black lines continued to tremble, as if
Want to get out of the groove.
It's quiet at night.
At the same time, the strange words sealing the cabinet also began to change. They quickly turned into two tiny palms made of thick black mist, and actively stretched towards the bottle of slime.
No one knows why abdominal rats have such exaggerated length tails. Their tails are not only extremely long but also extremely tough. They are surprisingly flexible and powerful when swinging. Some adult abdominal rats can even use their long tails as
Use weapons such as whips.
It was a huge cloth bag that looked bulging, and the things inside stretched the entire cloth bag into a disk shape. Xiuge reached out and touched it, and felt that the things inside were extremely tough, as if they were twisted with metal wires.
Made of rope.
The wine bottle originally used to hold wine turned into powder the moment it touched the two black palms, and the changeling insect mucus contained in it was suspended in the air in an extremely strange shape.
Xiuge frowned. He waited quietly for a while, but he saw the two "mouthparts" retracted again. They turned into palms again, and then turned into strange black words again.
He had no idea that he had put forward so many demands for goods, but in the end, the two that he thought were the most outrageous were the first to be satisfied!
Some hunter villages active on the Goddess Plains even use the tails of the belly rats to make bow strings or traps. However, it is not easy to remove the long tails of the belly rats correctly. The toughness of these long tails comes from the magic contained in them.
, and before death, the belly rats, like almost all magical creatures, will exhaust the magic power in their bodies in order to gain a chance of survival.
"I remember correctly... it needs to be indeed a changeling bug, but what is the concept of body fluid essence? It sounds like some kind of beauty essence in the advertisement."
Although the act of asking Gerrard to search for the items he wanted according to the list was "opening a blind box", the results of this "blind box" were indeed somewhat beyond Xiuge's expectations.
Plains-bellied rats are very common in the wilderness areas of the Goddess Plains. The appearance of this magical creature is much larger than ordinary rats. In addition to their size, another major feature of plains-bellied rats is their tails.
Along with the increasingly strong smell of terror, Shuge finally saw clearly the goods brought by Gerald.
Xiuge looked pale and shook his head.
While he was thinking, he pushed one of the bottles towards the handicraft cabinet.
"So, thank you for your patronage, a total of two general gold coins and twenty-five circulating silver coins... In view of the discount mentioned earlier and the particularity of the goods you purchased, the twenty-five silver coins can be directly deducted as a fraction, okay?"
After making preparations, Xiuge took out the mist grass, and after the purifying smoke swept over his bed twice, he lay down on it.
"The goods provided by the 'Alchemy Thief' can always meet the customer's requirements. Everything is prepared according to the list given by Mr. Ernst."
Looking at the wooden box again, there was a mess of dark shadows, and it was impossible to distinguish its appearance, so Xiuge asked with a grim face: "What on earth is this!"
Xiuge withdrew his attention from the spiritual world. He took the lead in picking up the remains of the three large bottles of changeling bugs and walked towards the office corridor nearby. Soon, he came to his first target.
forward.
To be precise, it's a basket.
After an extremely difficult ideological struggle, Shuge finally overcame his mysophobia. He took the three items that satisfied the requirements brought by Boss Gerald to his bedroom, including the one that Shuge regarded as life and death.
Naturally, the enemy's swamp witch hair is still sealed in a wooden box, and he doesn't want his room to become like a toilet.
Shuge felt that even if all the sewers in Salem City exploded at once, it would probably smell like this.
Gerald reminded him kindly, and then took out the last item from the wooden box.
Xiuge nodded twice in pain, then took out two universal gold coins and slapped them into Gerald's huge palm.
In the legend, the four-winged harpy is the incarnation of "Kelidar", the god of love and beauty, so this image often appears in places and things related to women, including clothing, jewelry, cosmetics and the sale of them.
The stores are typical.
"You look lonely? Just wait, maybe I can find you two companions tonight."
At that moment, he could no longer find a short word in his memory that could match this taste.
Just like those hungry predators waiting for food, the moment the changeling bug slime came to him, the black mist in the handicraft cabinet suddenly became restless, and Xiuge saw them begin to attack continuously.
The inner wall of the handicraft cabinet.
Then a strange change immediately occurred.
Xiuge opened his eyes at his familiar workstation. He tried to sense his spiritual world. The metal disc used to inscribe magic was sitting there quietly at this time, and a faint magical luster shimmered in them.
On top of the empty trough.
The three long tails of the plain-bellied rat that were rolled into a disc shape were specially taken out by Xiuge and inspected carefully.
"No matter what, take it or not!"
"Mr. Ernst, do you have any further concerns?"
Weird words representing exchange conditions emerged.
Before Xiuge could take a closer look, the second thing had already been taken out.
At this moment, the ominous omen that had been brewing in Xiuge's heart was fulfilled. In the light of the magic lamp in the foyer, he saw a whole basket of thick hair.
Therefore, hunters who hunt rat rats always need to use the fastest and most direct method to kill these prey. Only in this way can they truly achieve their goals.
"Thank you for reminding!"
Finally, at Shuge's strong request, Gerald put the basket of "Fresh Hair of the Swamp Witch" he had obtained back into the wooden box, and thoughtfully helped Shuge re-cover the box lid.
Xiuge's expression suddenly changed. He ran as fast as he could, closed almost all the room doors, crushed the bedroom door curtain to death, opened all the windows in the old house, and then returned there holding his nose.
Next to the wooden box.
"Of course it's what you want."
Shuge frowned and looked at the three bottles of changeling bug slime in his arms, somewhat undecided.
Once the magic power in their tails is drained, these tails will naturally break and completely lose their toughness.
At this moment, Xiuge finally could no longer contain his emotions, and the explosive syllables blurted out, echoing in the empty hall with a strong sense of disbelief and absurdity.
but……
"My first 'exchange' in the dream world used silver coins... However, the silver coins themselves do not have much symbolic meaning, so until now, I still have no way to determine whether these 'conditions themselves' will be consistent with the 'exchange'
The result' is associated."
Perhaps because of his violent mood swings, Xiuge's process of entering the dream world was not too smooth this time, but in the end, the dream responded to him.
"there is none left."
…
Amidst the smell of gray grass and the orderly ticking of the magic clock, Xiuge quietly waited for the arrival of tiredness.
This is a figure cabinet, which is a common decoration in almost all game companies. Generally speaking, it will be filled with all kinds of anime or game characters of different sizes. But now, in the cabinet in front of you,
What is placed is no longer an exquisite figure or model.
While Xiuge was thinking, he carefully looked at the cloth bag and jewelry box in front of him. The set of female noble jewelry from the Kingdom of Walter was nothing worth checking. Gerald had already organized it well.
After going through it, from earrings to necklaces to rings, etc., they were all neatly placed in wooden boxes by category.
Xiuge pulled out a long tail from the bag, shook his wrist vigorously, and immediately pulled the brown long tail forward, and a roar was heard in the air during the swing.
Shuge didn't have any idea of checking it. He decided to take it directly into his dream world and deal with it. He could just let it happen.
He nodded with satisfaction, then rerolled it, put it back into the bag, and placed it on the bed together with the jewelry box and the three large bottles of changeling bug remains collected during the day.
Immediately afterwards, the two black palms changed their appearance again. They looked like the mouthparts used by insects for sucking. They hungrily penetrated the mucus, and then started sucking frantically. Within a few seconds,
In one breath, the large mass of changeling insect mucus completely disappeared under their sucking.
Through the glass of the handicraft cabinet, Xiuge saw a thick black fog that was constantly floating. There seemed to be something in this thick fog... He could only vaguely judge that it was a human figure, but he could not detail it.
distinguish.
After closing the lid of the box, Gerald also breathed a sigh of relief. Even though he was well-informed, he was also stung by the basket of hair with a strong smell. He introduced: "Except for this basket of filth,
The remaining two pieces that have been collected are 'a set of orthodox female noble ornaments of the Kingdom of Walter' and 'three long tails of adult plains rats'. You can check the goods now, or you can come to me to deal with the problem after you find it...
But only within the last three days."
"Is the quantity not enough?"
With this thought in mind, Shuge pushed the remaining two bottles of changeling insect slime forward, and the previous scene happened again. After a while, the amorphous black fog sucking the slime returned to its original state,
Xiuge noticed that the text as a condition seemed to have faded a bit.
"It seems that the so-called body fluid essence of the changeling bug should only account for a very, very small part of the mucus...According to this progress, the body fluids of an adult changeling bug can only satisfy one-quarter to one-fifth of the requirement.
The requirement means that I have to deal with at least four more changeling bugs and collect all their remains to achieve the immediate goal."
Xiuge smacked his lips: "Okay, at least we have come to a conclusion that can be 'paid in installments'. Next, let's go see how to deal with the other items... Don't let me down."
