Li Huailin had no idea that the women were talking about him behind his back. They were even preparing to send out powerful members to recruit him into their guild. Ever since Li Huailin discovered that the Health Potion could be drunk as poison, this was the only thing on his mind.
Relying on his Movement Speed bonus, Li Huailin quickly ran back to the main human city. His goal was naturally the potion shop in the main city. Although he had never been there before, it was easy to find.
The potion shop in the main city was located in the business district in the north of the city. It was a three-story western-style building. The first floor was where potions were sold. However, the number of potions available was very small and very expensive. The second floor was where alchemy was taught. It was a place where players could learn and level up their alchemy skills. The third floor was an alchemy laboratory that could be rented. Players could rent a room on the third floor for a certain amount of money. This room was similar to a dungeon. Everyone was separated inside, and there were all kinds of alchemy equipment in the room. It was convenient for alchemy players to practice alchemy.
The potion merchant on the first floor was a male NPC in his fifties. He wore the uniform of an Intermediate Alchemist, and his appearance was amiable. However, players who had shopped here before knew that he was a profiteer.
Li Huailin jogged all the way to the entrance of the potion shop. Before he could enter, two players suddenly blocked Li Huailin's way.
"Player, do you want to buy …" A player who was wearing the same three-piece beginner's set as Li Huailin was about to speak, but Li Huailin interrupted him.
"I don't have time. We'll talk later!" Li Huailin did not have time to deal with these people. He quickly went to find an NPC to buy potions.
"Eh? You … You look like … Awesome Bro? "The player looked at Li Huailin's face and tried to recall. Then, he suddenly shouted in surprise.
"What Brother Awesome?" When the nearby players heard this shout, they immediately turned their attention to Li Huailin. Many of them had seen the pinned posts, so they quickly recognized Li Huailin.
"It really is Brother Awesome!" A player shouted excitedly.
"Brother Awesome, how did you find the time to come here?"
"D * mn, I get it. The potion shop owner is going to be in trouble!" a player shouted in realization.
"Yes! That's definitely the case. As expected, Brother Awesome also thinks that the owner of the potion shop is a scammer. "
"That's right! That potion shop's owner is a profiteer! He's selling a 30-minute Miniature Strength Potion for 5 Silver Coins! He's bullying us solo players, who can't afford to earn Alchemy Points!" a player said angrily.
"Brother Awesome, kill that profiteer. We'll support you," a group of players shouted.
"En, don't worry." Li Huailin pressed his hand down and said, "Please make way."
The players immediately opened a path for Li Huailin. At the same time, they activated their recording functions and prepared to film.
Li Huailin saw the NPC shop owner as soon as he entered. This merchant was different from the powerful Warrior Mentors. When he saw Li Huailin, he didn't call him a newbie or a kid. Instead, he smiled professionally and said, "What products do you need? Our potions are of high quality, and our prices are fair. We're honest."
"Pa." Li Huailin slapped the shop owner's face without a word.
System Notification: Because you attacked the potion shop owner, Mudrich, your relationship with Mudrich increased by 20. Current relationship: Friendly. Because you attacked a member of the Alchemist Guild, your relationship with the Alchemist Guild increased by 3. Current relationship: Friendly.
"Who are you trying to scare with that fake smile of yours? Give me a better smile," Li Huailin said with a domineering expression.
Mudrich put on a more friendly smile and said, "Customer, what do you need?"
"D * mn! Brother Awesome is really good. He beat up the potion shop owner with just one blow, "the players behind him exclaimed.
Only then did Li Huailin open the item menu of the potion shop. After a brief glance, Li Huailin's brows immediately furrowed.
There were quite a lot of items in the potion shop, but they were all useless. For example, the status potions on the first few pages.
Micro Strength Potion: Increases Strength by 10, lasts for 30 minutes. Price: 5 Silver.
Micro Agility Potion: Increases Agility by 10, lasts for 30 minutes. Price: 5 Silver.
…
These items were useless to Li Huailin. Li Huailin would only lose attributes if he drank them. Most importantly, the reduction was too little. If there was a potion that reduced vitality by 100 for a day, Li Huailin would immediately buy it.
There was a pile of Alchemy materials at the back. Li Huailin didn't even look at them because he couldn't train his sub-class.
Then there were the Health Potions that Li Huailin wanted. Li Huailin found a total of two types of Health Potions.
Micro Healing Potion: Recovers 20 HP per second, lasts for 5 seconds. Price: 3 Silver.
Medium Healing Potion: Recovers 35 HP per second, lasts for 6 seconds. Price: 10 Silver.
"D * mn, why is this thing so expensive!" Li Huailin was shocked. He didn't expect Health Potions to be so expensive. Although he didn't understand the market, he knew that most players only had 20-30 Silver. They would be out of money after buying 2-3 bottles of Health Potions. How were they supposed to play? How did normal players level up?
The Health Potions in Heart of Glory were frighteningly expensive. It was different from other online games that relied on drinking Health Potions. The Health Potions in Heart of Glory were very limited. Normally, people would only be willing to drink Health Potions when exploring dungeons. Who would drink Health Potions when leveling up? That was why even though Clerics were extremely slow at killing monsters, there were still people who wanted to party with them.
However, Li Huailin really didn't know. Looking at the price of Health Potions, Li Huailin immediately became furious. He slammed the table and said, "Motherf * cker, the players were right. You're a motherf * cking profiteer! And the most sly kind. "
When Mudrich heard Li Huailin's words, his expression changed, "How can you insult me like this? The price of Health Potions is decided by the Alchemist Guild. It's the same everywhere."
System Notification: Because you insulted the owner of the potion shop in the main city, Mudrich's favorability towards you increased by 5. Current favorability: Friendly.
"D * mn, you still dare to argue? Then don't blame me for not giving you face." Li Huailin rolled up his right sleeve and grabbed Mudrich's collar with his left hand.
"Pa!" Li Huailin raised his hand and gave Mudrich a tight slap. One of Mudrich's teeth flew out of his mouth, and it was a critical hit of 86 points.
System Notification: Because you attacked the owner of the potion shop in the main city, Mudrich's favorability towards you increased by 15. Current favorability: Respect. Because you attacked a member of the Alchemist Guild, Mudrich's favorability towards you increased by 5. Current favorability: Friendly.
"Good man, don't attack." Mudrich said with blood dripping from his mouth. "In the future, when you shop at our potion shop, you will receive a 10% discount."
"D * mn, they really can reduce the price," the players behind him couldn't help but say.
"Motherf * cker, only 10%? Do you think I'm a beggar?" Li Huailin calculated that 10% was still 9 silver coins. What was the difference? He immediately slapped Mudrich again.
This time, Li Huailin didn't stop. He attacked from both sides, hitting Mudrich, whose level wasn't very high in the first place. Mudrich's face swelled up, and quite a few of his teeth fell out. His mouth was full of blood, and he looked extremely terrifying. Mudrich had long since become a Worship. Even his Reputation in the Alchemist Guild had slowly risen to 20 points. However, it wouldn't increase anymore once it reached 20 points. Even if he killed Mudrich, it would only increase by 20 points.
"How much? Think about it and tell me," Li Huailin said domineeringly as he lifted Mudrich.
"Hero, spare my life …" Mudrich spat out blood as he said, "Although you have given me a new lease on life, the Alchemy Guild can only give me a 20% discount. I really can't take advantage of you."
"What? 20% discount? Do you think I'm a beggar?" The blue veins on Li Huailin's forehead bulged. He pulled Mudrich over and slapped him crazily again. He said while slapping him, "I spent so much effort to slap you, and you have the nerve to give me a 20% discount. My slaps are so cheap. Do you know that there are people waiting in line for me to slap you? The line is enough to circle the earth two and a half times. Now I take the initiative to slap you, and you still want to charge me? Do you want me to slap you?"
"Hero, I really can only give you a 20% discount," Mudrich said as he spat out blood. His face was unrecognizable.
"Brother Awesome, calm down. Calm down. If you continue like this, someone will die." The players at the side were originally angry at the Potion Store owner's unscrupulous behavior. However, the scene was so tragic that they couldn't help but sympathize with the Potion Store owner.
"Calm down? Calm down my ass. I'm going to slap him to death today, "Li Huailin said agitatedly.
"Brother Awesome, this guy can only give you a 20% discount even though he's been beaten up so badly. Maybe the lowest the system can give is 20%. Otherwise, this guy would've given in a long time ago," the player at the side kindly reminded him.
"Hmm, you have a point." Li Huailin thought for a moment and said, "But even with a 20% discount, one Health Potion costs 8 Silver. How am I supposed to buy it?"
"Brother Awesome, you want to buy Health Potions?" The player at the side suddenly laughed. "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
"Ah?" Li Huailin was stunned. "You have it?"
"F * ck me. The Potion Store owner slapped me for nothing." The player at the side said sympathetically, "Brother Awesome, our guild members are practicing Alchemy on the third floor. We came down here to sell the products to recoup some of our costs. You want Medium Health Potions, right? 4 Silver each. This is the market price. It's definitely not expensive. You can ask around.
"F * ck me. Why didn't you say so earlier?" Li Huailin was also stunned.
"Actually, the two of us stopped you at the door just now to ask if you wanted to buy potions … We are also in charge of handling Alchemy products in the Guild. If we put them in the Auction House, they'll only sell them for 4 Silver each. There's also a processing fee. To save money, the Guild let us sell them here. 4 Silver is really the lowest price. That's the price of the materials. "Two players walked out from the side. They were the ones who stopped Li Huailin at the door.
"…" Li Huailin turned around and patted Mudrich's shoulder, who was still vomiting blood. "I'm sorry. I went the wrong way today. You've suffered …"
