Chapter Summary
If you can have something like this, any mission will be a piece of cake. Just as the mages said, if you had a complete ancient magic potion, you would be their most honored guest. They'll only think about how to rip us off." If anyone else had said these words, Liu Ning certainly wouldn't have believed them, and might even have thought they were using him.
"There are some things you really don't care about. Actually, if you're looking for something, I can provide you with a channel. For example, at last night's auction, a valuable item was auctioned off for 220 billion yuan. This valuable item was acquired by the president of our Mage Guild. Moreover, this item is only a defective product, not the best one. If it were the best, its value would probably be more than 10 times higher. As for what it is, you can go and see for yourself. I don't need to tell you too much now. If you can have something like this, any mission will be a piece of cake. You can do whatever you want. The Mage Guild will definitely give you the green light. This item is extremely precious to all mages. If you can get your hands on it, it will be a huge boon for our Mage Guild. Not only will we not cause you any trouble, but we might even treat you as an honored guest of the Mage Guild. Don't think I'm joking."
While Lin Lei was saying this, Liu Ning had already checked the auction records from the previous night. These things were actually quite public; for those important figures, there was no need to hide such things. Most people understood that hiding them wouldn't make a difference; everyone could find the answers quickly. So Liu Ning quickly found out online that the item was an ancient magic potion. What is an ancient magic potion? It's something brought from ancient ruins, completely different from ordinary magic potions on the market. Ordinary magic potions have various limitations and can cause all sorts of problems after consumption. But ancient magic potions are completely different. They existed hundreds of thousands of years ago, or even longer. When your magic power is depleted to zero, you only need to drink one of these to immediately replenish it. For magicians, this is their second life; you should understand that.
Liu Ning immediately understood what was going on. It seemed they wanted him to research this magic potion. Ordinary magic potions were already very expensive, but for people like them, ordinary magic potions might not meet their needs. Therefore, they had to use higher-grade ones. However, higher-grade magic potions were not so easy to obtain. If you thought they were so easy to make, would this thing still be able to sell for over 200 billion yuan? You could just buy it on the street. Besides, the president of the Mage Guild wasn't stupid. What he bought was just a defective product. Just as the mages said, if you had a complete ancient magic potion, you would be their most honored guest. Mages are always the most honored guests wherever they go. To become their guest, you must have something they need, and this ancient magic potion is what they need. If you have this thing, the entire Mage Guild will not make things difficult for you.
"Now you know what I mean by telling you this, right? I'm just letting you try it yourself. Aren't you a high-level alchemist? And you can even concoct things that others can concoct. If you can also make this, it will be great for everyone. So I hope you can work hard. Once you make this thing, forget about the crimes you've committed. The Mage Guild will buy it at a high price. You'll see what price you get, and it won't be unreasonable. This kind of potion is extremely important to us. It's like our second life. No matter how much effort it takes, we will submit to this potion. Don't think this is nonsense. It's all true. Under these circumstances, you finally understand what I'm telling you. Just keep these things in your heart and don't tell anyone. Otherwise, this kind of thing will be even more expensive on the market. Those unscrupulous merchants won't care about any of this. They'll only think about how to rip us off."
If anyone else had said these words, Liu Ning certainly wouldn't have believed them, and might even have thought they were using him. But since it was Lin Lei who said them, Liu Ning had no reason to doubt him. After spending some time with him, he naturally knew what kind of person this guy was. If he didn't even believe someone like Lin Lei, then he was being far too suspicious. So Liu Ning smiled and nodded. However, he didn't like what Lin Lei said next. "You guys have the nerve to say that others are exploiting you? In the whole world, your Mage Guild is at the very top. You've been exploiting the whole world for a while now, and you have the nerve to say that about us?" Of course, that was impossible. In this situation, you can do whatever you want, and it has absolutely nothing to do with us. Some things are like that. If things can be clearly understood, it's good for everyone. But if they can't be understood, some things become difficult to handle. It all depends on what you think.
"I will definitely try my best to do this, but there are some difficulties that I can't solve for the time being. This place is not my map at all. I need to see that thing. Also, if you want me to prepare it for you, you must provide enough materials. You know I don't have such a wide range of sources. If I had the materials myself, I could start preparing it immediately, but it's hard to say in the capital. You know how things work in the capital. If I go out to buy these things, it will probably cause a buying frenzy in the whole society. You also know how high my status is in the pharmaceutical field. So I hope you can prepare some things for me. In addition, if the preparation is successful, I need you to give me 5 magic crystals. The third thing is that I will set the price. Although my request is a bit excessive, I know you can definitely negotiate it successfully because you desperately need this kind of thing. You have already revealed that I may be that unscrupulous merchant. So what do you think of my request?"
