“Impressive!”
Sagittarius enthusiastically gave a thumbs up to Mu You.
“Is a Magic Potion Master a rare profession?” Little White the Aquarius asked curiously.
“Absolutely!
In the game world, a Magic Potion Master is the most prestigious and lucrative profession!
However, it’s extremely difficult to get a foot in the door.
Out of a hundred gamers, maybe one could become a Magic Alchemy Apprentice, let alone a high-level Magic Potion Master.
They’re one in ten thousand!”
“Wow, indeed impressive!” As a mood matcher, Aquarius girl once again cast admiring glances at Mu You.
“If we need potions urgently in the future, we might need your help in brewing them…
Of course, I’ll provide the ingredients, and the compensation will definitely be generous…
What do you think about it?” Sagittarius humbly made this request to Mu You.
Having learned that Aries might be a high-level Magic Potion Master, her attitude towards Mu You instantly became more respectful.
Even if she had heard that Aries was a big shot from ancient times, to her, it wasn’t a big deal as he was just a trading partner within the same guild.
His strength was his alone.
But if Aries was also a Magic Potion Master, then that was a different story!
This is a profession that can directly help her.
Uh-oh, overdone the bragging!
Mu You was in tears.
Should he have just boldly admitted he wasn’t a Magic Potion Master?
Now look at him, totally backed into a corner!
Despite the turmoil inside, he managed to keep a straight face, casually nodding: “Sure, if I’m not busy.”
He did not dare to appear too confident and left himself the excuse of being ‘busy’.
“That’s great!”
Sagittarius breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at the paper a few times, considered her words, and then asked: “I’m afraid I can only offer one Regeneration Grass and the previously mentioned Battle Eagle for the Rejuvenation card.
What do you think?”
Sagittarius asked with a degree of trepidation.
Other than Red Dragon Blood, the rest of the items could be bought with ‘game life’.
She was a bit worried whether Mu You would agree or not.
After all, such ancient big shots probably have game life in the thousands, if not tens of thousands, unlike ordinary gamers like them who have to split their one year of game life in half.
Items obtainable by spending money maybe of lower value in their eyes.
Little did she know, her offer was like sweet music to Mu You’s ears.
She actually had the items in stock!
And it was the Regeneration Grass, the most valuable item besides Red Dragon Blood!
This was already a perfect deal for Mu You.
He promptly nodded: “Alright, let’s trade on these terms.”
“Okay.”
Upon hearing his agreement, Sagittarius hurriedly took out a long wooden box, and placed it and her card on the pattern in front of her.
Meanwhile, Mu You also placed the ‘rejuvenation’ card on his Aries pattern.
Then, the items on both sides concurrently disappeared and reappeared on the opposite side.
Sagittarius quickly picked up the card, examined it slightly, and chose to fuse it without hesitation.
She quickly closed her eyes to perceive the effects of the new spell.
A delighted expression soon appeared on her face.
Clearly, her inspection of the items went perfectly and matched Mu You’s description.
On the other hand, after picking up his card, Mu You also immediately chose to fuse it.
Upon confirming that the spell was correct, Mu You nodded, then opened the wooden box in front of him.
It was filled with dried out herbs.
It didn’t matter that the herb was dried out because all he needed from the Regeneration Grass was the powder, which required the herb to be dried anyway.
With no concerns from either party, the trade was considered a success.
Mu You then turned to Little White: “So, what about you?”
“I…”
Little White the Aquarius girl swallowed and, looking at the paper in her hand, said somewhat awkwardly: “Among these, I only recognize the ‘Red Dragon Blood’, I don’t know the rest…
can it…
can it still be exchanged?”
“Red Dragon Blood?!”
Mu You was stunned.
The Sagittarius girl at the side was even more surprised and exclaimed.
“Huh?
Is it Red Dragon Blood, isn’t it?
What’s wrong…” The Aquarius girl was somewhat puzzled.
Had she said something wrong?
Why did Sagittarius have such a big reaction?
“Oh, never mind, I’m sorry…”
Sagittarius immediately realized her faux pas and kept her mouth shut quickly.
It was rather rude of her to butt into others’ trade and behave pompously.
“You have Red Dragon Blood on you?”
Mu You didn’t mind Sagittarius’s reaction because he was equally surprised.
Red Dragon Blood was the most expensive among all materials, and it was often marked out of stock in stores as it was priceless.
You could say that all other materials combined were not as precious as a drop of Red Dragon Blood.
This newbie girl, having joined the game less than a month ago, actually possessed such a valuable material?
“Oh, no, I don’t…
I triggered a task a couple of days ago, and the reward for completing the task is a drop of Red Dragon Blood.” The Aquarius girl hurriedly explained.
“I see.”
Mu You breathed a sigh of relief; this was somewhat understandable.
But Sagittarius couldn’t help but give a bitter smile inwardly.
A task that rewarded Red Dragon Blood, what did that level entail?
What kind of lucky newbie was this?
After pondering for a moment, Mu You looked at Aquarius and asked, “What do you think the chances are of completing this task?”
“Well…
probably about fifty percent…
ah, if I could load that ‘Time Reverse’ to recover, the chances of completion would be even higher!”
The Aquarius girl cautiously looked at Mu You and said, “So…
can we exchange the cards first, and I’ll bring you the Red Dragon Blood at next week’s meeting after completing the task?”
Mu You thought for a moment.
Today was the 4th, the meeting next week was at midnight on the 11th, and the night of the full moon was also on the 11th.
If he attended the meeting at midnight that day, then went back to brew the potion, and completed the Spirit Summoning Ceremony before dawn, although the timing was tight, he would still make it in time.
The most important thing was – this was the only known way he could get hold of the Red Dragon Blood at the moment.
If he didn’t grab this opportunity, he would basically have no chance with Magic Potions Study.
So Mu You decided to take a gamble!
“Alright, let’s exchange cards now.”
“Ah, okay!”
The Aquarius girl was overjoyed and quickly placed her card on the pattern.
After a moment, she received Mu You’s card.
Like Sagittarius, she didn’t hesitate and immediately fused the cards.
After confirming the effect, she was finally relieved.
“Thank you very much.
I will definitely bring the Red Dragon Blood next week…
um, if…
I mean if, by any chance I fail to complete it, then I will mortgage my relic…”
“No, there’s no ‘if.’ You have to complete it!”
Mu You shook his head; to him, one card was not that big of a deal, it was only a matter of two or three hours.
Taking this gamble on hope was worth it to him.
Aquarius hesitated for a moment, and then quickly corrected herself: “Yes, there is no ‘if.’ I will definitely complete this task!”
Mu You nodded, and now that all the transactions were complete, he also lifted the speech restriction.
The meeting was one hour long, and there was still some time left, so everyone in the hall chatted leisurely for a while.
It was now time for Leo to shine, he took the opportunity and bragged incessantly, while the other three people could only occasionally interject.
As for Mu You, he had now fully morphed into an observer, acting indifferent as if listening to children discuss amusing things, but in fact, he was the one paying closest attention and absorbing all the information in the room.
Suddenly, the hour for the meeting was up.
“It seems our meeting for today has come to an end.”
Seeing the black mist starting to churn around everyone, Mu You glanced over each person at the table, then smiled and said: “Well then, I wish you all good luck and see you next week.”
“See you next week!”
“See you next week!”
“See you next week!”
“Haha, I’m really looking forward to next week!”
…
As Leo’s laughter echoed, Mu You was completely enveloped by the mist.
He felt his body suddenly lighten, and when he opened his eyes, he found himself back in his house once again.
