Report

Broadcasted the first-hand news of receiving the 515 red packets. Students who hadn't received any red packets since the New Year could now show off their skills. ● Hong,

Potionology Skill Book

Kieran was surprised when he read Nobian's message.

Although Kieran was conversing with Lemour, he did not let his guard down around Nobian. Kieran's eyes followed Nobian's every movement until he left the Harvest Inn.

From Kieran's point of view, this was the end of another test.

However, the message before Kieran's eyes told him that the other party had not only finished testing him, but he was also eager to reel in the net.

As to why

Wealth moves people

Kieran glanced over his over 10 Points and 37 Skill Points. He knew what was going on in his head and chuckled.

The Underground Game did not prohibit players from killing each other.

Although the punishment was quite severe, as long as one wasn't caught, nothing would happen to them. On the contrary, the one who killed them would obtain all the possessions of the one who was killed.

From Kieran's point of view, this setting encouraged players to kill each other.

Fortunately, there were quite a few people who actually did this.

Firstly, if players were discovered, they would lose all of their Points, Skill Points, and equipment, and lose all of their Attributes. This was a punishment that struck fear in the hearts of players.

The second reason was that it was hard for people to accept the fact that they had been living under the federal system for a long time, even if they had killed countless people in the instance dungeon. However, the fact that he had only killed an NPC was more than enough to dispel most players' psychological burden.

However, nothing was absolute.

Just like Nobian, who was standing before him.

The other party's sinister intentions were obvious.

He lacked Potionology Skill Books. The other party just so happened to have a Potionology Skill Book.

Such a coincidence was suspicious in itself.

Of course, he couldn't rule out the possibility that it was really a coincidence.

Kieran would not deny that there were such coincidences in the world.

However, the other party's malicious gaze when they first met, coupled with the coincidence before his eyes, made it worth Kieran's time to ponder.

At this moment, Kieran was certain. In order to ensure his own benefits, the other party had no choice. He would definitely come up with an excuse to stop him from using his points and Skill Points.

After pondering for a moment, Kieran replied to the other party's private message.

2567: Really?

2567: Then why didn't you trade with me directly?

Nobian: I know a friend who has a Potion Platform Blueprint and a couple of recipes. I want to trade with you after I get my hands on them.

Nobian: After all, this is the only way to get a good price.

Everything was as he had expected, and this caused Kieran to sneer in his heart.

However, when he replied to the other party. Kieran, on the other hand, was pleasantly surprised.

2567: Potion Platform and Recipes

Nobian: Yes, potion table and recipe.

Nobian: My friend and I completed a team dungeon. I obtained the Potionology Skill Book and the Potionology Platform Blueprint and Recipes from that dungeon. My initial plan was to purchase the Recipes and Recipes from that player. And then specialize in Potionology. And that's what he thought, too.

Nobian: That dungeon cost us a lot. Not only were we unable to complete our goals, but the next dungeon trip was even more difficult. That's why we decided to sell the items we have. We think we can sell them for a high price, "Nobian said. However, the price offered by Broker is too low. It's nowhere near what we expected.

Nobian: I hope you won't let us down, 2567.

2567: If it's true, of course I won't let you down.

After Kieran's reply, Nobian sent a screenshot of the Potionology Skill Book.

There really was a Potionology Skill Book?

Kieran squinted his eyes, his heart filled with astonishment.

Screenshots of items in the underground game could not be copied.

In other words, Kieran had taken a screenshot of the item.

However, the astonishment in his heart did not change Kieran's previous judgment.

It even made Kieran speculate more.

It would be fine if Broker really had a Potionology Skill Book.

But if he had managed to get his hands on a Potionology Skill Book during the short time he had been gone …

Then the power behind him must be terrifying!

Kieran's heart skipped a beat. He instinctively thought of a person.

The Broker.

Other than the Broker, the owner of the Unique Title and the secret bazaar, Kieran could not think of anyone else who could do this.

"The Broker wants to make a move on me?"

Kieran frowned.

This was not good news.

What puzzled Kieran though was why the Broker wanted to make a move on him.

Everything had a reason.

Kieran and the Broker had only met briefly at the secret bazaar.

On the surface, both of them seemed to be enjoying themselves, so the Broker had no reason to do this.

"Did I miss something?"

The doubts in Kieran's heart made him test further.

2567: That friend of yours.

Nobian: A veteran player like me. His nickname is the General.

Nobian: Lawless knows him too, but they aren't that close. It's better if you don't mention anything about the deal with the General.

Nobian: But I'm quite close with the General. Just wait for the good news, 2567.

Kieran and Nobian's conversation stopped after Kieran's message ended.

Kieran went through the contents of Nobian's message.

From the moment Nobian had mentioned the Potionology Skill Book to the appearance of the veteran player whose nickname was the General, Nobian's plan had been meticulous.

Not only had he used the Potionology Potionology Platform's blueprint as bait, but he had also provided a reasonable explanation.

If Kieran had not been prepared beforehand, he could not guarantee that he would not have fallen into Nobian's trap.

Nobian had completely grasped Kieran's eagerness to learn Potionology.

In order to lure Kieran into his trap, Nobian had even set up a safety measure: using Lawless.

Of course, Nobian would not have gotten Lawless's help directly.

However, Nobian was confident that Kieran would ask the veteran player whose nickname was the General.

He would also be able to get some comforting news from Lawless, and out of good intentions, he would not tell Lawless any more details.

Kieran asked as he looked at Lawless, who had squeezed through the crowd surrounding the alchemist.

"Lawless, do you know a player whose nickname is the General?"

Although Kieran had guessed Nobian's intention, it did not stop Kieran from beating him at his own game.

Kieran could not be sure if Nobian's partner was among the veterans in Harvest Inn.

"The General?

That bastard who always snatches my business is still alive?

That bastard is my competitor in the mercenary business. His strength is average, but he has a pretty good reputation. "

"Why are you asking about this bastard?"

Lawless asked.

"Nothing."

Kieran said vaguely.

Lawless shrugged and walked towards the bar counter without minding Kieran's words. However, his steps paused for a moment.

The pause was fleeting.

Lawless returned to normal the next moment.

Other than Kieran, no one else noticed it.
