I Have a Sailing Game-Chapter 141 - 132: The Alchemist’s Confidence
[You have acquired a Magic Potion Recipe - Warrior.]
[You have acquired a Magic Potion Recipe - Watcher.]
[You read the Magic Potion Recipe, now you can brew the corresponding Magic Potions.]
After glancing over the demands of the Magic Potion Recipe, Rogel no longer paid attention.
Watcher potion’s brewing requirements are extremely low; anyone who knows Magic Potion can easily make it. It’s not a good potion, only slightly better than Drowning Monster Potion, not worth considering.
[Magic Potion lv5 provides you with some additional information.]
[Warrior Potion’s Sequence Compatibility is high, but its brewing difficulty is relatively high as well.]
It seems that although Warrior Potion is not as good as Intern’s Potion, it should be quite decent.
Especially the term Sequence Compatibility, which Rogel felt was linked to the difficulty of potion brewing.
After putting away these two Magic Potion Recipes, Rogel looked at the man in front of him.
These two Magic Potion Recipes came from the Hound.
Like Hudson, he was also prepared with the appropriate Magic Potion Materials.
He prepared three sets of Watcher’s potion materials but only managed to gather one set of Warrior potion materials.
It seems the reason he dared to call Hudson ’Exorcist Boy’ is because his own strength is not to be underestimated; otherwise, he wouldn’t have managed to gather these potion materials.
[The main ingredient for Warrior Potion, ’Barbaric Ape Tail Bone,’ is extremely difficult to acquire; I’ve been searching for years and only found one set, spending quite a bit of savings.]
[Little brother, can your mentor brew these two potions?]
The Hound’s voice is deep, yet his words have become quite courteous.
It’s evident that witnessing Hudson become a true Extraordinary has given him a great shock.
This young man indeed has a mentor who can brew potions!
Rogel’s status in his mind instantly elevated from a stranger to a prestigious guest.
Becoming an Extraordinary now seemed within reach.
The Hound even made plans.
As long as Rogel can help him obtain the potion, he would spare no expense in agreeing.
His desire for the potion exceeds Hudson’s!
Hudson only waited a few years to meet an Alchemist like Rogel,
but the Hound has searched almost the entire Five Major Seas without finding the right channel!
He even ventured into the Sea of Sin!
Even though he has seen Extraordinary and had some interaction, it doesn’t mean they can provide the potion the Hound desires. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
No one who hasn’t experienced it can understand the pain of gathering materials with difficulty only to find no one can brew the potion.
This is also why someone as rational as Hudson would present such a humble posture in front of Rogel.
Under the hopeful gaze of the Hound.
Rogel nodded slightly.
[It can be brewed.]
[But your trade chips are insufficient.]
Upon hearing Rogel’s words, the Hound was delighted, not worrying at all about the latter half of Rogel’s remarks.
As long as it can be brewed, everything can be negotiated!
[Whatever else is needed, speak freely, as long as I can manage it.]
Like Hudson, the Hound is a smart person; he quickly lowered his stance and displayed enough attitude.
[First, I need the whereabouts of the Barbaric Ape.]
[Second, use your connections to search for other Magic Potion Recipes for me, in exchange, my mentor can consider brewing potions for them.]
[Third, I need advanced equipment blueprints and potion recipes.]
[Moreover, let me tell you something, with only one set of potion materials, no Alchemist can guarantee success in one attempt.]
Rogel wasn’t polite, he laid out all his conditions.
If Hudson barely has a mentor’s kindness, then the Hound only has a simple trading relationship with him.
After hearing Rogel’s terms, the Hound felt a bit troubled.
It’s not that he hesitated or was dissatisfied with Rogel’s conditions.
[... I can try to meet the other conditions to the best of my ability, but the whereabouts of the Barbaric Ape... I don’t have them for now.]
[But I’ll search during this time and notify you as soon as there is news.]
The Hound quickly replied.
He completely trusted the last sentence, finding nothing wrong.
That’s how it is; who has an Alchemist that helps brew potions with only one set of materials?
He’s not a cheat player; who can guarantee success in one go?
In this regard, the Hound even felt somewhat ashamed.
He can only offer one set of materials, yet a negotiation is still possible.
It seems Rogel is giving him such an opportunity because of Hudson’s sake.
This made the Hound feel ashamed and grateful.
[Brother Rogel, rest assured, I, the Hound, will meet your needs even at the cost of my own life.]
The Hound spoke in a serious tone.
To this, Rogel simply nodded.
The deal was originally a no-loss for him.
Even if the Hound couldn’t provide the whereabouts of the Barbaric Ape, he had obtained the Warrior Potion’s recipe. He would search for it himself later, just spending more time.
[If that’s the case, let’s leave it at that; find me when you have progress.]
Rogel said.
The Hound seemed a bit anxious at this.
He felt Rogel was indirectly refusing him.
This made him feel, the Warrior Potion, so close at hand, was about to slip away.
[Wait!]
Calling out to Rogel, he quickly ran back to his room, took out several boxes, and handed them to Rogel.
[These are complete materials for Warrior Potion and Watcher’s materials.]
[You take them first, hand them over to your mentor.]
[As for that missing potion’s main ingredient... I’ll figure it out myself.]
The Hound said gritting his teeth.
In his view, this was the only way to keep Rogel.
Anyway, the potion materials, without an Alchemist willing to brew them, are just waste, better to trade them for Rogel’s promise or guarantee.
With no other choice, the Hound had to make this last-ditch effort.
Seeing the Hound’s attitude, Rogel was a bit surprised.
Hudson beside him was not surprised, his attitude calm.
He did not mean to refuse, the Hound must have misunderstood.
Unexpectedly, he was willing to hand over his only potion materials.
This made Rogel further understand the quasi-Extraordinary’s yearning for Extraordinary Potions.
It seemed that if kneeling could earn potions, the Hound would’ve knelt already.
... Potions hold an even higher status than Alchemists in fantasy novels...
Rogel sighed inwardly.
Seeing this attitude, Rogel pondered for a moment and devised a plan.
[Actually, the Barbaric Ape Tail Bone is not an essential potion ingredient.]
[There are some Extraordinary Materials that can barely replace it, but this will affect the potion’s success rate and quality.]
Being an Alchemist, Rogel naturally understood potion knowledge thoroughly.
Potion recipe materials are not fixed; as long as the Extraordinary factors contained are similar, replacement is feasible.
But this would greatly reduce the original success rate, affecting the potion’s quality.
However, probability is not an issue for a cheat player like Rogel.
Upon hearing this, the Hound was overjoyed.
After Rogel shared the possible substitute potion materials, the Hound informed Rogel of a message before leaving.
After hearing this, Rogel left the place.
The Hound hurried to collect substitute potion materials.
As he walked, Rogel couldn’t help but frown.
The Hound informed him of movements within the Mother Goddess Church in Giant Claw City, where members have split into two groups and left.
This made Rogel wary in secret.
It seemed likely the Mother Goddess Church is searching for Missionaries, probably notifying other members of the Mother Goddess Church elsewhere.
As Rogel pondered, Hudson also bid farewell.
[Thank you very much for your help, Rogel.]
[I’m planning to leave Giant Claw City.]
[I’ll leave these two items with you; perhaps they will be of some use.]
Hudson sincerely thanked Rogel, then took out two small booklets from his bag and handed them to Rogel.
[You have acquired Hudson’s Demon Exorcism Notes.]
[You have acquired the Demon Exorcism Secret Scroll.]
After putting away Hudson’s gifts, Rogel also nodded at him.
[Safe travels.]
