The attitude shown by the old elf was very bad, which was somewhat beyond the expectations of the dragon boy and Zidi.
Under normal circumstances, displeasure is certain, but there is no need to show such strong hostility.
Zidi was slightly startled, then looked at the old man, a smile appeared on her face, and asked: "May I ask your surname?"
The old elf snorted coldly, with an arrogant attitude and did not answer.
The human female companion next to him raised her head high, looked at Zidi and the dragon boy with the eyes of a country bumpkin, and said: "You don't even know Lord Bing Xiao? Where do you come from? Who are you?"
Zi Di smiled unabated and replied: "We have indeed arrived at Snowbird Port not long ago."
The dragon boy looked at the little girl.
The little girl's eyes dodge and she timidly replies: "This is Lord Ice Owl, the previous leader of the Bayonet Gang."
"Bayonet Gang?" Zidi showed a confused look.
The little girl continued to answer: "The Bayonet Gang is the largest local gang."
The dragon boy was a little surprised. This was his first time encountering a gang.
If you think about it, the islands that the survivors arrived at were relatively small.
It has not been long since the construction of Snake Island began, and no gangs have yet developed.
In the Eye Island, Lord Dutong is the largest faction, and he has complete control over his territory. Covered by a single faith, the Isle of Two Eyes is the parish of Fortune Sect. In addition, the nature of Double Eye Island is special. It sinks into the sea or rises to the surface at regular intervals, making it difficult for gangs to develop and grow.
Ice Sculpture Island is different.
It has developed for too long and settled down. Not only the orthodox royal family, officials from various places, regular army, etc., there are also traces of mercenaries, thieves and other activities on the streets and alleys.
When Zidi learned the relevant information, she couldn't help but narrow her eyes slightly and thought to herself: It's really not appropriate for us to offend a local snake when we are new here.
Zidi had a smile on her face: "We really need such intelligence potion, and we don't mean to conflict with you two..."
Before Zidi could say anything, she was interrupted by the human female companion of the old elf: "My giant slave needs it more than you! We have to order this intelligence potion!"
Zidi gritted her teeth slightly and looked at the clerk on the side: "I wonder if we can place an order?"
The clerk quickly replied: "Yes, it is completely possible. The maker of this potion is Hua Ni, the famous alchemist master in the Ice Sculpture Kingdom. Our chamber of commerce has a strong relationship with her and has always had close contact. As long as the customer makes a reservation, You can get it in half a month.”
"Half a month?" Zidi frowned.
The clerk said in a sincere tone: "This time is already the fastest."
Zidi smiled: "We can add more money."
The clerk looked troubled: "Master Huani, I can't rush you. You, my guest, are also a mage, so you must know the tempers of some masters better than I do."
The face of the old elf Bing Xiao was full of impatience: "Okay, don't wait any longer. I'm still rushing to watch the opera tonight, and my mood will get worse if this continues. You guys can get out of here. , If you want to buy something, come back tomorrow. Now, I don’t want to see you."
The human female companion immediately echoed: "Did you hear that? Why don't you leave quickly?"
Then, he looked up and down at the dragon boy and Zidi with disdain: "You guys, you have never seen the world. How can Master Hua Ni's temperament be impressed with money?"
Zidi's face darkened.
The dragon boy suddenly smiled and said: "It makes sense."
"In that case..." the dragon boy drawled, "Then I'll just buy the one in front of me, wouldn't it?"
The dragon boy looked at the clerk: "You are the secret medicine branch, how do you sell this medicine?"
"If you are afraid of this Lord Ice Owl and don't dare to sell it to others, then forget it."
"You?!" The human female companion widened her eyes and looked at the dragon boy in shock.
The old elf's face turned even gloomier.
The clerk was a snow elf who was deliberately squeezed by the dragon boy. He was a little scared and did not dare to speak for a while.
But soon, he reacted: "I'll ask the store manager for instructions!"
The store manager's voice came the next moment: "No need to invite, I'm already here."
The store manager has an ordinary face, but has the aura of a silver-level fighter. He smiled and said: "Our Secret Medicine Chamber of Commerce is one of the six major chambers of commerce in the Shengming Empire. All the time, the goods in the chamber of commerce are sold fairly to the outside world, and the prices are fair. The tallest one gets it. This giant intelligence potion sells for 360 gold. Anyone present can buy it. The specific effect of this potion is: to greatly increase the intelligence of the giant in a short period of time. As time goes by, the effect of the potion continues It will weaken until it disappears completely. However, the giant who takes the potion will have a certain probability of permanently increasing the lower limit of intelligence."
"That's good." The dragon boy looked at Zidi and asked with his eyes whether the price of 360 gold was reasonable.
The tacit understanding between the two does not require words, and they can often communicate with their eyes.
Zidi nodded slightly to the dragon boy and signaled to him: The price is reasonable.
Gold-level intelligence potions are inferior in price to healing potions. Because the latter is almost equal to a second life at a critical moment.
For 300 gold, you can buy most of the silver-level armors on the market. And it's still of high quality.
Therefore, the selling price is worthy of its gold grade.
The dragon boy did not hesitate: "In that case, I will pay 360 gold."
His eyes shifted from the store manager to the old elf.
The human female companion only reacted at this time and couldn't help but scream: "You actually dare to buy it, you are so brave. You don't even take Sir Ice Owl seriously!"
Bing Xiao sneered and looked at the dragon boy again: "Young outsider, you are very courageous."
Then, the old elf looked at the store manager and bid: "400 gold."
The dragon boy said immediately the next second: "500 gold."
The human female companion's heart skipped a beat. Unexpectedly, the dragon boy directly added 100 gold.
Bing Xiao said in a deep tone: "600 gold."
Similarly, he also increased the price by 100 gold coins based on the original price.
The dragon boy smiled softly, crossed his arms, looked calm, and said in a calm tone: "800 gold."
This time, he directly raised the price by 200 gold, which made the store manager on the side look askance.
The human female companion was frightened and looked at the old elf worriedly.
The human female companion hugged the elf old man's arm, squeezed his chest, gently shook the old man, and said coquettishly: "Master Ice Owl, I want this potion."
Ice Owl's gloomy expression softened slightly, and he patted the back of the human female companion's hand: "900 gold!"
The dragon boy smiled and quietly pressed: "1,200 gold."
300 gold!
He increased the price fiercely on the basis of 900 gold coins!
The human woman's face was pale, and for the price of 1,200 gold, he fully understood the dragon man's strength. At least the two "hillbillies" in front of me have extraordinary financial resources.
The ice owl stared at the dragon boy, the murderous intent in his eyes undisguised.
The dragon boy took his time and responded to the ice owl's killing intent with a fighting gaze and a strong chest.
Ice Owl finally retreated, and a sinister smile appeared on his face: "The young dragon man is really full of fire, and his financial resources are also surprising. I just don't know that you can buy this potion today and keep it safe. Until when?”
The dragon boy said calmly: "Of course I will take good care of it, so you don't have to worry about it."
Ice Owl snorted: "Let's go."
He lost face and left voluntarily with his human female companion.
The store manager said to the clerk: "Why don't you go and send Mr. Ice Owl away."
The clerk nodded quickly and bowed to see the customer off.
The dragon boy looked at Bing Xiao and others' leaving figures, his expression always firm.
If you want to reserve this potion, it will take at least half a month.
This time is too long for the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group.
The survivors themselves do not have the ability to refine gold-level potions.
For the sake of Xiao Guai, this giant intelligence potion cannot be given away!
The dragon boy always had a sense of crisis in his heart.
He hopes that he, and the people around him, will grow and expand as quickly as possible.
Because huge crises are always lurking, and we don’t know when they will break out.
The future for the survivors is uncertain.
Of course, the young dragon man who believed in the God of Justice did not have a good impression of the old elf.
It's hard for a gang member to warm to a righteous believer.
Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand.
Taking out 1,200 gold is completely easy for the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group.
"Finally got the intelligence potion." Zidi was happy in her heart. When she thought of the big man's bloodline, her heart was full of expectations.
The store manager warned: "You two should be more careful recently, especially at night, and try not to go out."
"Perhaps, you can hire a branch of the Snow Cotton Mercenary Group. Snow Cotton is the largest mercenary group in the Ice Sculpture Kingdom. They were formerly the Kingdom's female guards and have a strong ability to protect important personnel."
The dragon boy shook his head slightly: "No, we are a mercenary group."
