"Then, child, do you still want to continue challenging?" Wuornos' words interrupted Li Huailin's thoughts.
"Hmm …" To be honest, Li Huailin really had to think about it. The rewards of this Tower of Trial were really not bad. At least the two rewards on the third floor made Li Huailin very satisfied. However, the difficulty was indeed high. If the boss did not kill itself on this floor, Li Huailin really would not have been able to clear it. As for the next floor, only the boss could kill itself to clear it, but the chances did not seem high.
"How is it, Huailin?" Ceci looked at Li Huailin expectantly.
"I'm not going," Li Huailin suddenly said. "Let's pause for a while. We'll challenge again in the future."
"Sigh … Why?" Ceci said in disappointment.
"This place is too interesting. It's too boring to finish it all at once. Let's save some for later." Li Huailin said very seriously. Of course, the actual situation was that he could not beat the boss and would be beaten up miserably. He might as well just quit. There was a guy here who had been recording. It was so troublesome. He might as well quit and try again when he was alone in the future. After all, he could come back anytime.
"Oh, I see." Ceci actually accepted Li Huailin's words and nodded. "That's true … There are a lot of things recorded today. I have to hurry back and organize them."
"Are you sure you want to pause?" Wuornos asked.
"Yes, I'm sure." Li Huailin nodded.
"To be honest, you're the most talented Chosen One I've seen in the past hundred years. I've seen people pass the third floor on their first attempt, but that was a hundred years ago … Recently, you're the first. I'm looking forward to your performance," Wuornos praised.
"Oh, don't worry. I'll definitely finish it," Li Huailin said.
"If that's the case, then I'll be looking forward to your next performance. Now, let me send you out." After Wuornos finished speaking, the three of them suddenly felt their bodies lighten. Then, a white light flashed, and the next second, the three of them appeared at the top of the pyramid. A ray of sunlight shone into their eyes, making them a little uncomfortable.
"We're finally out! Yeah! " Ceci said happily. The underground palace was indeed a little stuffy and gloomy. Li Huailin, who breathed in fresh air, felt his body relax, let alone the twelve-year-old Ceci.
"The class advancement quest is also completed … let's go back …" Li Huailin said.
"The uncle in the village wants you to deliver something for him," Ceci reminded. "Isn't this an adventurer's quest?"
"Oh, there is such a thing …" Li Huailin nodded. "I don't know if Shadow will affect the class advancement quest. Anyway, it's just a matter of delivering something. They can't be too harsh on me, right?"
Thinking about the 20 silver coins deducted from the last letter he gave to Delise, Li Huailin estimated that it would probably be the same price if he delivered it again. To be safe and not affect the class advancement quest, Li Huailin decided to make the trip.
"The village is this way." Ceci had a good sense of direction and immediately pointed in the direction of the village.
"Let's go." Li Huailin nodded.
Of course, on the way back, Li Huailin was still 'warmly welcomed' by all kinds of giant beasts. However, probably because it was daytime, there were not many beasts. Li Huailin only met four or five of them. According to Didit, the beasts on the island mostly came out at night and only occasionally met during the day. The number of beasts that Li Huailin met was quite high. Saint Gaius, Li Huailin asked her to go back first. There was no need for light outside, so it was useless for now.
They walked safely to the entrance of the village. The village was as peaceful as ever. During the day, all the adult men were out hunting and fishing. However, Delise was an old man, so he probably did not need to go out.
Everyone in the village knew Li Huailin and Ceci, the two outsiders. After all, the village was not big. Everyone knew that the two had come yesterday. A few women who were busy in the village took the initiative to greet Li Huailin. Li Huailin sniffed and found that Didit had returned safely. However, he was out fishing again and was not at home. As Li Huailin guessed, Delise was still in the village.
"Uncle, we are back!" Ceci shouted happily near Delise's house.
"Oh, you are back. Wait a moment, I will be ready soon." The door was not closed, so Li Huailin and Ceci went straight in. Inside, Delise was mixing bottles and cans on the table. Although the equipment was very outdated and looked very old, Delise's movements were very professional. It seemed that he was a rather powerful Alchemist.
"It's done …" Delise put down the last potion, and then sealed the bottle properly. His actions were very meticulous. After that, Delise wiped his hands and sat opposite Li Huailin. "How is it, warrior? Are you here to buy potions?"
"No, I'm done. I came back to say goodbye," said Li Huailin.
"So fast?" Delise was a little stunned. "It was only a morning and you finished?"
"Yes." Li Huailin's movements were really fast. However, he had only fought two bosses, so it would not take much time. It was still longer to travel. "It's a pity that I don't have time to take care of your business."
"Oh, it doesn't matter. Anyway, my wife opened a pharmacy in Muryek City. I can't sell much of these goods here, so they are all shipped to my wife." Delise smiled and said, "By the way, you are here to get something for Verden, right?"
"Yes, I came to get it while I was at it." Li Huailin nodded.
"Well, this is it." Delise took out the potion that he had just made and placed it in front of Li Huailin. "This is what Verden wants."
"Potion?" asked Li Huailin.
"Yes, I just asked my son to gather the raw materials today. You saw that it was just made. Take it back to Verden and give it to him together with this letter." Delise then handed another letter to Li Huailin.
System Notification: Delise has issued a D-level quest. Reply. Accept.
"D-level? Accept. "Li Huailin was just as he thought. It was just a D-level quest, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
D-Rank Quest Reply: Dries wants you to deliver his reply to Weedon Hillsmart. Quest Reward: 1000 experience, 30 silver coins, 2 Reputation Points in Kumla Village.
"30 silver coins. Deducting 2 Reputation Points is still acceptable." Li Huailin nodded. "But it's a little strange. Why didn't he mention the contents of this potion?"
Li Huailin was puzzled as he picked up the potion on the table. In the end, something terrible happened.
System Notification: [S Rank Main Quest, Road to Save the Nation -1: Search for Potions has been completed. You have lost 10 Gold Coins and 1200 Reputation Points. You are temporarily unable to gain EXP. Please contact the Class Instructor in each city to complete the Class Change Quest. Special Reward: One Fruit of Wisdom.
"Huh?" Li Huailin was stunned. His body remained in the same position as he held the bottle.
"Huailin, Huailin, what's wrong?" Ceci asked when he saw Li Huailin suddenly become silent.
"I …" Li Huailin took a deep breath. He was speechless for a long time. "I … I want to kill someone …"
"Why?" Ceci asked curiously.
Li Huailin ignored Ceci and looked at the potion in his hand. On it was written: Transformation Potion Antidote: Quest Item. Can remove the effects of the Transformation Potion. Bound. Cannot be traded. Cannot be discarded. Cannot be destroyed.
"F * ck! This is the f * cking Transformation Potion Antidote? "Li Huailin shouted at Delise while holding the bottle.
"Yeah. This is what Verden wants." Delise nodded. "Actually, the Transformation Potion is a specialty of our island. However, there aren't many people who know how to concoct it now. Among the young people, only my son knows how to concoct it."
"I don't care who knows how to concoct it. I'm speechless." Li Huailin shouted.
"Huh?" Delise was confused. "I didn't. I didn't charge you for this potion. How is this a scam?"
"Ten Gold! Big Bro, I only have a few Silver Coins on me right now! How do you expect me to return to the main city, you bastard?!" Li Huailin said as he lifted Delise from his chair.
"Hey, hero. Let's talk …" Delise quickly said, "I really didn't do anything."
"I don't care if you did anything. Let me beat you up first." Li Huailin raised his fist.
"Wait!" Ceci suddenly said.
"What's wrong?" Li Huailin turned to look. Ceci, who was beside him, immediately took out his notebook.
"Let me ask you why you beat him up. I don't understand what adventurers are thinking. So, let me ask first." Ceci took out a pen and started recording.
"…" Li Huailin held Delise and thought for a while. There seemed to be nothing much to say. After all, there was no way to explain his strange character bug. So, he thought for a while and said, "This … Can I not have a reason?"
"No reason?" Ceci was stunned at first. He then nodded. "Oh, I see … Let me see. Adventurers often beat up old natives for no reason … What do you think about writing this?"
"…" Li Huailin was speechless. "Can this paragraph be removed?"
"Huh? This paragraph is very interesting. It's all about adventurers that no one has ever recorded before. This is a big selling point. "Ceci said.
"…" Li Huailin stared at Ceci for a while. He then took a deep breath and put Delise down. "Whether in or out of the game, reporters are the most annoying."
