Invincible Copy System
Chapter Summary
I haven't heard of you having any acquaintances around here." Zhao Lele said with some surprise, "My master seemed a bit absent-minded just now. If it's about buying medicinal herbs, the Bai family has everything, but what Liu Ning is buying now are some poisons, most of which are not sold in regular pharmacies. The three potions Liu Ning had just used were too vicious; they might work on ferocious beasts, but if used on humans, they would kill them.
Liu Ning looked around and finally decided to give up the idea. Originally, Liu Ning wanted to experiment, but everyone around him was an ordinary human being. They hadn't offended him, so why should he poison them?
"Master, are you looking for someone? I haven't heard of you having any acquaintances around here."
Zhao Lele said with some surprise, "My master seemed a bit absent-minded just now. I wanted to ask Liu Ning about it when Zhu Tianhua left."
"Who can I contact? But I need to go buy some things. The videos from both sides are on your smart device. Just keep an eye on them here. Once the time is up, go collect the final payment from them. I'm leaving now!"
Liu Ning quickly left the place. Of course, Liu Ning needed to buy some materials. Now that he had the skills of a poison master, Liu Ning still didn't have any poison. If he didn't have any poison, how could he be considered a poison master?
According to the system's prompts, Liu Ning can now concoct three types of poisons. He's itching to try them out, as he's always eager to find ways to increase his strength.
Although Zhao Lele suspected Liu Ning's intentions, she also knew that her master was rather eccentric. If she followed him, it might displease her master. It was better to just do her own thing. Once these two deals were completed, their reputation would be established. They needed to quickly prepare for the next steps. If they had more clients, Zhao Lele dared not even think about it; they would be rich.
If it's about buying medicinal herbs, the Bai family has everything, but what Liu Ning is buying now are some poisons, most of which are not sold in regular pharmacies. So Liu Ning went to the Mercenary Alliance, which is known for having everything.
While the secondhand market does sell some contraband, it doesn't have as many items as the Mercenary Alliance. The Mercenary Alliance is like a city within a city; you can buy almost anything there as long as you can distinguish between real and fake.
Liu Ning first went to a shop and disguised himself. Wearing a mask on the street wasn't a good idea, so Liu Ning chose to disguise himself. When Liu Ning came out again, he appeared as a hip-hop youth. No one could tell Liu Ning's true face. This kind of outfit was the most ordinary thing on this street. If you had come out in a suit, people would probably have found it strange and might have thought you had gone the wrong way.
The three types of potions that Liu Ning can concoct are the three most widely used potions by poison masters. One potion can reduce a person's vitality, another potion reduces speed, and the last potion reduces defense.
What Liu Ning needs to buy now are the materials for these three potions. Actually, the speed potion is the least important. After all, Liu Ning has the mental power of a psychic, so if he wants to slow down the opponent, he can use his mental power. However, Liu Ning also thought about the existence of someone like Zhao Wudi. If he releases his mental power, the other party may know immediately. So, he decided to prepare all three potions, just in case he needs them sometime.
"You want to buy Gastrodia elata? Let me tell you, young man, this stuff is highly poisonous and a controlled substance. It can't be sold to you without a license. You should understand what kind of price this is, right?"
In a relatively large shop, after hearing what Liu Ning wanted to buy, the shop assistant looked at Liu Ning with some suspicion. To be honest, they definitely had such a thing, but could a little kid like Liu Ning afford it?
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Since I want to buy your stuff, of course I've brought enough money. Show me the goods. As long as the quality is correct, name your price."
Liu Ning is like a scoundrel, which fits the reality here. If he were a refined gentleman, the other party wouldn't have given him anything.
"Young man, come and take a look. This one is absolutely the most authentic. But I don't bargain here. It's just one, and I'll give it to you for 8 million."
After hearing the price, Liu Ning turned and left, not wanting to argue with this guy anymore. This thing is obviously artificially bred, but you're selling it at the price of wild ones. Do you expect me to wait here and get ripped off? The system gave a prompt directly. If it weren't for the system prompt, Liu Ning might have bought it, since he didn't have the ability to distinguish between real and fake.
"Young man, don't go! Let's come back and talk about 8 million. If you think it's too expensive, how about 7 million? 7 million, or if that's not enough, we can go for 4 million..."
By the time Liu Ning could no longer hear his voice, the price had dropped to 800,000. Unfortunately, the potion Liu Ning wanted to prepare was top-tier, so he couldn't just use any other ingredients to make up the difference. The quality of the medicinal materials also affected the potion's grade.
Upon reaching the door, Liu Ning spat out a mouthful of saliva. Such a large shop, yet it was selling counterfeit goods.
That's understandable. The Mercenary Alliance has all sorts of people, and if you don't have a good eye, you won't be able to buy anything genuine here.

A man in tattered clothes passed by Liu Ning. It turned out that this man was a poison master. No wonder, if a poison master wanted to buy materials, he would definitely have the same idea as Liu Ning, so these people would buy them from the surrounding places.
Liu Ning followed this guy and copied him all the way, finally managing to copy all of his formulas. The three potions Liu Ning had just used were too vicious; they might work on ferocious beasts, but if used on humans, they would kill them. So, the poisons this guy had were much better, as they were all designed to punish people.
If I had had these things earlier, I could have used these potions on Minotaur during the bet that day, letting him have a good taste of them.
As for the Quick Poisoning Technique, it wasn't very useful to Liu Ning. He could cast it instantly when he copied the Poisoning Technique, so he had accumulated some of that skill.
A typical poison master has at least 20 seconds to prepare before attacking, but a master-level poison master doesn't need that. Liu Ning is at the master level, so his rapid poisoning technique isn't very effective.
