Chapter 514
King’s City, outskirts.
Commoner residential area.
Low houses were scattered in disorder. The distance between the houses was very short, and the s.p.a.ce was cramped. Sometimes, one had to turn sideways to walk through.
Mark came to this commoner area according to his memory and knocked on a wooden door.
“Who is it?”
A weak voice came from inside the wooden door.
With a creak, the door was pulled open, revealing a face full of beard and a somewhat haggard face.
There was a scar on his face, an empty sleeve hanging down, and the other hand completely opened the wooden door.
“Vice Guild Leader, why are you here? Tie Dan, Mu Ya, hurry up and see who is here!”
A look of surprise flashed across the bearded man’s eyes, and his voice rose a few decibels.
“Vice Guild Leader, have you found anything from the recent investigation? How is the situation of the Dark Tide?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the bearded man regretted it.
The “Winged Corps” probed outside the wall for decades, but did not get much. Now, the Corps is declining. They have the intention to find out the truth of the Dark Tide, but they suffer from lack of ability.
Not to mention,
Every time the corps went out of the city to explore, it was a narrow escape from death. Some comrades-in-arms might sleep in the wilderness. The vice regiment came with great difficulty, but he had to bring up such a topic.
Tie Dan and Mu Ya, who came out of the house, also had some eagerness and nervousness in their eyes.
Mark suddenly smiled.
It was a happy smile.
“Yes, we have gained a lot. Not only have we found the surviving humans outside the wall, but we have also obtained a large sum of capital support. I came this time to gather you old friends…”
There were only a thousand awakened people in the “Winged Corps”, but in fact, there were many awakened people who joined the “Winged Corps” because of their dreams and obsession.
It was just that the casualty rate of the corps was too high.
Some people could not bear it and quit the corps.
Some people were buried in the wilderness.
There were also people who had the idea of bleeding the last drop of blood for the corps, but because of injuries and other reasons, they could only quit the corps and farm in peace.
The bearded man was one of them.
When he heard that there were survivors outside the wall, he smiled like a child. He did not agree with Mark’s proposal of gathering his old companions.
“The corps has helped us enough over the years. We finally have enough funds and should use them on equipment. We are useless people. We are powerless to fight, but we are unwilling to drag the rear of the corps.”
Tie Dan and Mu Ya nodded repeatedly.
The auras of the three of them were weak and extremely chaotic. Just the people inside could sense the dense baleful aura coming from their bodies. They were soldiers who had experienced hundreds of battles.
“Who said that you are useless…”
Mark flipped his wrist and took out a bottle of red, jade green medicine. He opened the bottle cap and poured it into the bearded man’s mouth.
“These two bottles of medicine were provided by the big boss. If you don’t drink them, it will be a waste.”
The big bearded man opened his eyes wide, and with a grunt, the medicinal liquid in his mouth slid down his throat and into his body.
In a split second,
A warm energy flowed through his limbs and into his internal organs.
Some of the big bearded man’s festering wounds had black blood spurting out, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, scabs and fell off.
Some of the scars were slowly recovering.
The chaotic aura became stable, and the familiar power returned. There was only one or two layers of weak aura left.
It continued to climb until it finally stopped at the peak of the ninth level of awakening.
Except for his left arm, which was still empty, he had completely recovered.
“This, this is probably a master-level potion… How can it be wasted on me!”
The bearded man trembled.
It was anger.
Master-level potion!
Two bottles, one bottle to heal injuries, one bottle to replenish life force…
Only a Master Pharmacist would have the possibility of successfully refining it. In addition to the precious materials, the value of these two bottles of recovery medicine was self-evident.
It was even more priceless!
Even a middle-level n.o.ble with power and power might not be able to obtain it.
Even if it was a great n.o.ble, it would be extremely painful to suddenly use two bottles of master-level medicine.
He actually drank it just like that?
For a moment, he had the urge to vomit it out and see if there was any more medicinal liquid.
However, the bearded man was clear that the medicinal effect had long been absorbed by him.
Now that things had come to this, he could only repay it with his life.
Thus,
He saw Mark flip his wrist and several bottles of medicine appeared in his hand.
They were light red and green.
“It’s not a waste. It’s just a master-level potion. Big Boss doesn’t need this much.”
“…”
…
King’s City, the outskirts of the city.
A group of freelance mercenaries walked into a tavern with their arms around their shoulders.
The orange-yellow light flickered, emitting a gentle light.
“I heard that Baron Qingshui and Baron Sweet Potato have gotten together again. Hehe, there has been business again these days.”
“Shh, I heard that the Patrol Division has been fishing for law enforcement recently. If they catch you, they won’t leave you a single coin.”
“What are you afraid of! I don’t have any money, at most I can take my chrysanthemum!”
A drunk mercenary shouted, and the tavern was filled with a happy atmosphere.
The chatter was endless, either complaining that the mission was not profitable enough, or mentioning that the unlucky mercenary was not careful enough and was discovered by the n.o.ble families, and was beaten to death.
No matter what, the mercenary industry was a high risk industry.
Suddenly,
Surprise shouts came from the street outside the door, covering the noise in the tavern.
“Have you heard? Night Tavern opens for three days and has a 60% discount!”
“Is it the newly opened tavern on the east side of the street? I heard that it is even more luxurious than the inner city tavern, and the variety of drinks is even more abundant. My friend has been there once, and he said that he will never forget it. He doesn’t even want to go to those ordinary taverns.”
“Lord Aristocrat has already said it. Hurry up, I’m afraid there won’t be a seat if I’m late!”
The shouts quickly faded away.
Under the dim light, the customers in the tavern looked at each other.
A new tavern?
Was the wine really that good to drink?
The customers in the tavern were skeptical, but the fact that a newly opened tavern was so well-known that it could show the unique characteristics of the wine.
They couldn’t imagine how many Origin Crystals they had spent in order to boost the reputation of the Night Tavern and Tree Shade Entertainment City. They had even used all sorts of current sales methods.
Many of the wine recipes were bought from the system market by Tang Yu. They had a unique taste and the people of the empire said they were great, let alone a group of mercenaries who were not very knowledgeable.
He had long since fallen into the taste of wine.
His reputation naturally fermented.
When more and more free mercenaries came to the Night Tavern where the rainbow lights were flashing, they found that the seats in the Common District in the tavern were already packed to the brim.
Even many n.o.bles…
From the initial resistance, he looked down on the tavern in the outer city.
After finding out that the decoration of the tavern was exquisite and high-end, he was skeptical in his heart.
Then he sneaked into the tavern n.o.ble district with his followers. At first, he was afraid of being discovered by others. He was reduced to a place where he could only go to the commoner district to spend money. He was afraid of being laughed at… In the end, when he opened his eyes wide, he found that the n.o.ble district was filled with all his acquaintances.
Their perspectives met and they continued to pretend not to know each other. The air was filled with an awkward atmosphere.
In the end,
All kinds of wine were placed in front of their tables.
There was a mouth with a scorching hot impact, like a volcanic eruption erupting from the throat. There was a mouth full of burnt and fragrant fire dragon wine, and there was also a cool and lingering clear pool wine… No matter how tricky the taste was, one could find their favorite one in the Night Tavern.
It was so good that it exploded!
Thus,
I don’t know when it started, but the n.o.bles who were ashamed of entering the outer city suddenly…
“Have you been to the Night Tavern? What? Never heard of it?”
Pairs of disdainful gazes swept over, and the isolated n.o.ble was stunned.
What exactly did I miss?
