Chen Rui left the council hall, but he didn't return to the lab. Instead, he went straight to Joseph's magic store. With the example of vine stone, magic materials should be able to provide more auras. He wanted to determine which materials could be used.
Jía had announced yesterday that he was appointed as the secretary, so many Demons along the way cast strange looks at him. Chen Rui had already calmed down now and went all the way to the magic store.
After losing the Sky Battle, Joseph left the Dark Moon and went to the Red Spirit Estate. The person in charge of the magic store was one of the Great Demons behind Joseph that Chen Rui saw last time, Reus.
Chen Rui learned from Slee that Reus, the female Great Demon Vasasha and another Great Demon Arux were one of the three sharpest scythes in Joseph's hands. Joseph never made a move. If there was any trouble, the three of them would come forward to solve it. However, Chen Rui knew that Joseph's power was even more terrifying.
Reus was not only powerful but also intelligent. He was Joseph's most capable assistant. In contrast, Vasasha's main job was to be a personal guard. She returned to the Red Spirit Estate with Joseph this time. Arux was a belligerent, so he was responsible for the arena's affairs.
Chen Rui's arrival surprised Reus. Reus was also present at the Sky Battle yesterday. Logically, the little princess's side should already know that Joseph wanted to kill this human. Why did he come here alone today?
"Sir Reus." Chen Rui greeted, but Royce was obviously very disdainful of this powerless human. He showed an arrogant look and ignored Chen Rui.
Chen Rui wasn't bothered by the Great Demon's attitude. He continued, "Master Aldas is refining a magic potion recently, so he sent me here today to take a look at the magic materials."
He knew that the identity of the secretary could only shock those ordinary Demons. In front of a powerhouse like Reus, it was not worth mentioning at all. It was still Aldas's name that was more useful.
Sure enough, Reus showed a look of understanding and finally said, "Alchemy materials and magic materials are on this floor. The second floor is for magic equipment. You can take a look yourself."
Joseph's store was much more formal than Alice's previous weird store. Each item was placed on the shelves in categories. The "shopkeeper" was a lich, and a few dark goblins acted as "shop assistants".
Soon, Reus heard the dark goblin's report and walked in. Seeing that Chen Rui wanted a piece of each material, he was puzzled and asked, "What are you going to do?"
Chen Rui touched the materials while taking a pen to record. He replied, "I want to determine the purity and gravity of these materials. Master said that pharmaceutics is a rigorous knowledge that doesn't allow any carelessness."
Reus was a layman in pharmaceutics. Seeing that Chen Rui said it seriously, he didn't ask more. After Chen Rui tried them one by one, he thought about it and came to Reus. He looked hesitant and finally said, "Master has a small request. He wanted me to look for Sir Joseph, but unfortunately, Sir Joseph has left the Dark Moon. I wonder if Sir Reus can make the decision?"
Reus still didn't dare to neglect Aldas who poisoned the capital city's genius, "Tell me first, what's the request?"
"What master means is that these selected materials can be tested with a small fragment of each as a sample. After confirming, we can buy in bulk next time." Chen Rui saw Reus frowning, so he immediately added, "Master said that if you agree to this request, once the magic potion experiment is successful, you will sell it to Sir Joseph's magic store at the lowest price."
"Excuse me, what kind of magic potion is master experimenting?" Chen Rui's words attracted the attention of the lich, and he walked over. Lich was a race that was proficient in magic, so they were particularly concerned about this.
Chen Rui looked cautious and looked around. After confirming that the dark goblins were far away, he said mysteriously, "This involves a secret experiment. Please keep it a secret after listening. Master seems to be experimenting with a potion that can greatly enhance spirit in a certain period of time without side effects. At present, it is still in the experimental stage. We have encountered some problems in improving the purity of the potion and reducing the side effects, so we urgently need various materials to try. "
In fact, this was just a lost advanced potion that Chen Rui had seen in pharmaceutics, so he casually bluffed.
"Spirit potion … has no side effects?" The lich suddenly trembled and said with a trembling voice, "Is it the True. Spirit potion? This can only be brewed by the legendary grand master! Has Master Aldas already reached this level? "
Chen Rui didn't want to blow his own trumpet, so he explained, "It is still in the experimental stage. The master has failed several times. He wants to adjust some materials, so he sent me here. However, some materials here are too expensive, so I made this request to Sir Joseph."
Anyway, there must be many masters who tried to break through to the grand master level in the past thousands of years. He could just say that he failed in the end.
The lich's expression looked very excited. The "True" series of potions could only be brewed by the potion grand master. The Demon Realm had not had a grand master for thousands of years, so this potion was also lost. It could only be seen in some ancient books. Aldas had always been unknown. After he easily poisoned the empire's top genius, Sandro, in the Master Challenge not long ago, he began to show his prowess. Now, he actually began to challenge the pinnacle of pharmaceutics!
Even if Aldas failed many times, just the fact that he could break through to the grand master level potion showed his strength. Besides, what if this hidden dark elf master really succeeds one day?
Although Reus didn't understand pharmaceutics, he knew what a potion grand master represented. If Aldas could really break through the bottleneck and successfully advance to the first grand master of the Demon Realm in thousands of years, then even Prince Obsidian's attitude toward Aldas would change dramatically. As for the materials selected by the human, although there were valuable things, they were insignificant compared to this.
"I will agree on behalf of Sir Joseph! Grouchy, immediately give this human a piece of every magic material that the master needs. Not fragments, but complete! " Reus was quite shrewd and immediately weighed the pros and cons. Besides, Joseph had expressed his intention to stabilize Aldas last time, so he agreed immediately.
"Sir is wise!" The lich, Grouchy, also wanted to witness the grand master's maiden work. He responded and immediately went to the shelf to choose. Sure enough, the lich selected complete materials of excellent quality, not the "fragments" requested by Chen Rui.
Although Reus's address of "this human" was not very polite, Chen Rui was too excited at the moment. He didn't have the mood to care about it, "Thank you, sir! I will convey sir's generosity and kindness to the master! "
The original "test sample" was just a temporary idea. I didn't expect to earn a lot. I can go back and experiment with aura conversion to see which materials provide the most aura. Although he was still very envious of the many materials on the magic store's shelves, Chen Rui knew the principle of stopping when it was appropriate. If he was too greedy, it would be counterproductive. The most important thing was that the True. Spirit Potion was simply a bluff.
There were more than 30 types of magic materials. The big bag was heavy. Chen Rui thanked the lich again, then he pretended to be strenuous and carried the big bag out of the door.
After Chen Rui left, Reus said to Grouchy, "You go upstairs immediately and contact Sir Joseph with the magic stone. Report to Sir that Aldas is experimenting with the grand master-level potion! This matter must be kept secret and must not be leaked! Wait for Sir Joseph to make a decision before taking any action. "
"Yes, sir." Grouchy didn't dare to neglect and immediately went upstairs to do it.
Chen Rui carried the big bag, suppressed his excitement, and walked all the way to the lab. However, halfway there, he felt that he was being stared at from behind. Chen Rui secretly thought that judging from Reus and Grouchy's attitude toward the grand master-level potion, they wouldn't send anyone to follow him. It must be a small fry. Chen Rui changed his mind and walked to a secluded place.
The person behind really followed him. When he walked to a secluded alley with no one, the human in front suddenly disappeared. The person was taken aback and walked up carefully. It was a dark goblin wearing a small cloak. As he was looking around, he heard a voice behind him, "What are you looking for?"
The dark goblin was shocked. He turned around and saw the tracking target looking at him, and the big bag was placed on the ground.
"Sir … Sir Secretary!" The goblin actually bowed with a flattering smile on his face.
It was the first time that Chen Rui was called "sir" as a human. It felt a little weird. Although the secretary was only a petty official, in the eyes of low-level characters like the dark goblin and imp, he was more or less a civil servant.
It seemed that this goblin was quite well-informed. Although he didn't know what his intention was, Chen Rui naturally didn't care about this kind of character. He asked, "You followed me all the way. What do you want?"
Seeing that his whereabouts were discovered early, the dark goblin was taken aback. He quickly explained, "Sir, you misunderstood! I saw sir carrying a lot of things, so I just wanted to help. For the price of only five white crystal coins, Nunu can help you send the things to the lab. "
Movers? Chen Rui looked at the small body of the goblin and shook his head, "No need, I can carry it myself."
"Sir, if five is too expensive, four is fine too …" The dark goblin quickly stepped forward and kept reducing the price, "Two white crystal coins, no less."
As he spoke, the goblin suddenly waved his hand, and a cloud of powder covered Chen Rui. Chen Rui also learned a lot of knowledge in the lab. He could smell that this was the smell of rosemary flower, which could make people lose their strength in a short time. He immediately pretended to be hit and sat on the ground shakily.
"What secretary? You are just a stupid human! " The dark goblin was overjoyed. As he was about to grab the bag, his throat suddenly tightened. It had been tightly choked by someone. His entire thin body was suspended in the air. He suddenly couldn't breathe, and his limbs were flailing in the air.
