With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods-Chapter 1417: A single drop is enough

Though he hadn’t even traded them anything, Lin Fan had his hands full when he left the tribe of indigenous people.

All of them wanted to show their gratitude towards him in some way or another, so they gave him all kinds of different things.

For the people of the tribe, these things didn’t seem that valuable.

For Lin Fan, he could see with his Appraisal Eyes that these things were much more valuable than they knew.

Still, he didn’t say anything about this since this was their gift of gratitude.

It wasn’t right to put a price on something like this.

But if these were the things that they could give as gifts, it wasn’t hard to imagine what Yue Lan would be able to trade with them.

At the same time, these indigenous people would be receiving something that was definitely worthy of these things. So it wasn’t as if they would be suffering a loss trading with Yue Lan’s company.

That was the faith that Lin Fan had in Yue Lan.

With the corpse of the hydra on hand, Lin Fan didn’t head off to his next task right away.

Instead, Lin Fan headed off to find someone to butcher the corpse of this hydra.

After all, there was still something that he wanted to get from this hydra’s corpse. It was something that he needed for when he headed into the Dao Sect’s ruins.

It would be something that would no doubt be a powerful card to have in that place.

Which was why he wanted to butcher this hydra corpse as soon as possible.

Though it wasn’t as if there were many places where this hydra could be butchered in the first place. While the hydra wasn’t considered the strongest creature on the magic continent, it was still a very strong creature that most people had never encountered before.

Much less have had a chance to butcher.

Which was why there weren’t that many people that actually knew how to butcher this hydra properly.

But in the notes that Lin Fan had received from the Laver Empire, he knew where he would be able to butcher it. It was as if they already knew that he would be able to defeat the hydra easily as they prepared a place like this for him.

The place that he headed to was a city that was right next to the Serpent Wetlands.

It only made sense that the person that would be able to butcher the hydra would be in a place near the place that the hydra lived.

When Lin Fan arrived at the city, there was no one that stood in his way.

With his status as a S Rank Adventurer, he easily made his way into the city and to the Adventurer’s Guild branch here. This was the place that had the people that could butcher this hydra.

Though when he met that person, there was a strange look that appeared on his face.

"A real hydra!"

The voice alone was enough to show the enthusiasm that this person had for the hydra corpse. But it wasn’t just simple fascination that this person had towards this hydra corpse.

In a way, it could even be called an addiction.

Though it wasn’t as if hydra alone was the only thing that this person was obsessed with. The real obsession that they had was anything related to snakes.

It was just that the way that they looked at the hydra corpse was clearly not normal. This was the kind of look one would give to their spouse or someone similar...

It certainly wasn’t the kind of look that should have been cast in the direction of a corpse like this.

That was why there was a chill that ran down Lin Fan’s spine when he saw this person act this way.

Only he still needed this person’s expertise to help him butcher the hydra’s corpse. If he didn’t have this person, then he wouldn’t be able to get the thing that he wanted to get.

So that was why he acted like he wasn’t bothered by the way that this person acted.

However, he also didn’t let his guard down since it looked like this person might try to steal it if he had the chance. But in the end, it seemed like there was someone here to restrain him.

"Guild master, please get to work."

It was the receptionist that had led Lin Fan to this butchering room.

Once the guild master heard this, it was as if he had snapped back to his senses.

Though as he turned around, there was what seemed to be a pleading look on his face as he said, "Dear, this is a rare chance to study a hydra corpse. You have to at least give me a few days with it." 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

He didn’t even bother hiding what he wanted from Lin Fan who was the owner of the hydra corpse.

Of course, it wasn’t as if the receptionist showed him any mercy at all as she slapped the back of his head and said, "One day, that’s all you get!"

In the end, the guild master didn’t dare go against this receptionist.

From the context clues, it was quite clear that the two of them were a couple.

So it seemed like this guild master was interested in more than just serpent magic beasts.

When it came to a married couple like this, it seemed like the guild master really stood no chance. It was quite obvious who wore the pants in their relationship, so it was clear who was the one that actually made the calls between them.

After taking care of the guild master, the receptionist said to Lin Fan with a warm smile, "It’ll take a day for us to butcher this. Please don’t worry, we’ll be sure to work our guild master extra hard."

A tremble came from the guild master when he heard this, but Lin Fan chose to remain silent. He knew what kind of position the guild master was in, but he also knew that there was nothing that he could do to help him.

This was something between husband and wife, this wasn’t something for an outsider to get involved in.

So all Lin Fan said was, "I’ll leave it to you."

...

When he came back in the morning, he could see the exhaustion that the guild master exuded.

It seemed like the receptionist had kept her word and made sure to work the guild master as hard as she could.

But because of this, the giant hydra corpse had been completely cut apart in just a single night. Not only that, all of the different parts of the hydra had been properly trimmed and stored.

This was just how it was when it came to using professional service.

If Lin Fan had chosen to take apart this hydra on the spot, he certainly wouldn’t have gotten as many materials as this. At the same time, there would be far more damage to the materials.

After leading him here, the receptionist said, "There are a few things that we hope that you will allow us to buy from you. It’s rare enough for us to get a hydra, so naturally we’re happy to buy the materials that come from it."

From the side, the guild master added, "The last one that came in was just a baby hydra, this one is a full grown one. You have to get as much as you can."

At this, the receptionist turned to glare at the guild master as if she was telling him to shut up.

Lin Fan didn’t blame the receptionist for doing this since this was clearly showing their hand. When one was negotiating over items, they naturally didn’t want to show how much they wanted something.

That was a sign for the other side to rip them off since they would have a much higher tolerance for gouging because of their desire.

But it wasn’t as if Lin Fan was going to make things hard for them.

"What do you want?" He simply asked her after she indicated her intentions.

The receptionist was surprised by how frank Lin Fan was being, but she quickly pulled out a list.

After reading that list, Lin Fan said, "Other than the first and last item, I’m willing to sell everything else. I can’t sell those things since I have a need for them."

The receptionist was once again caught off guard by this, but she quickly nodded in agreement. After all, she already knew that it was pushing it a bit by asking for those two things, so it wasn’t as if she had been expecting to get them.

In fact, Lin Fan had even agreed to more than she had been expecting, so she was naturally happy about this.

But before she could say anything else, Lin Fan just said, "I want to examine the goods first if you don’t mind."

The receptionist quickly nodded in agreement and gestured for Lin Fan to go ahead.

The only thing that Lin Fan was interested in was a vial that was on the table that had a green liquid in it.

"A single drop is enough to kill millions."

The moment that he saw this on the description from the Appraisal Eyes, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

This was the thing that he wanted the most since poison was the one thing that really was hard to guard against.

With a poison as potent as this, there was no doubt that he would be much safer when he went to the Dao Sect ruins.
