Chapter 245

The Middle-Grade Natural Recovery Potion helped to solve part of the sustenance problem . At least in the first half of clearing the Epidemic Pond, the scarcity of Mana Point for Mage and Priest was alleviated, while the High-Grade Magic Potion became a life-saving potion .

This situation also increased the efficiency of clearing the dungeon by guilds . Lin Jie was not in a hurry at all as it was one week before the first clear when he looked at the time . At this time, Savage Blade was still collecting Blasphemer Sets intensely, waiting to obtain the first clear when every one of them collected a Golden Armor Set!

Training an army for a thousand days to be used for just one hour . It was yet the time to use the army .

The business in the Sky Provisions Shop continued to boom, and many people were envious because there was only this shop eating the whole cake . There were also many guilds which had sent people to contact Seven Ears through various means, trying to lure this pillar of the Sky Provisions Shop . How could Lin Jie’s eyes be wrong? Seven Ears disdained their high salary recruitment and blocked them directly after a few words .

However, something unpleasant happened today .

Sakura’s Pub

Yan Li poured the concocted liquor into a goblet and sent it to the table . The pub was a good place for conversations, and things like hidden killing missions and dirty transactions were also chosen to be carried out here .

One of the reasons was because the pub was noisy . Hence, it was not easy to be exposed .

Another reason was that the atmosphere of the pub was good . Wearing a black cloak, one would feel like a mercenary or a cold-blooded killer in the movies .

Yan Li had worked here for a long time and had seen countless strange people, but nobody was as eye-catching as this fellow—he was wearing a Lone Wolf Helmet and a cloak .

“Hi, here’s your Violet . ” Yan Li smiled .

Lin Jie nodded and took out a gold coin . “It’s your tip . ”

“Thank you for your generosity! Please take your time to enjoy your drink . ” Yan Li bowed and left with gentlemanliness .

At a corner in the pub, Zhang Rong was playing with the accordion and singing his poems with sadness, and this was applauded by the audience at the pub . There were even some pretty girls holding their cheeks and gazing at him shyly .

Potion Maniac grabbed his glass, drank all the liquor boldly, and then said with a deep voice, “You don’t need to persuade me, I’ve made up my mind . To be exact, you are not qualified to persuade me . ”

Lin Jie flicked his finger and said, “So you’re leaving?”

“Yes, he offered me a higher pay, much higher than what you offered me,” Potion Maniac said like this was right and proper .

Despite all kinds of obstruction from Seven Ears, some people had heard about Potion Maniac by means of devious questioning after the sale of Middle-Grade Natural Recovery Potion, and they knew that about half of the potions were made by him .

As Seven Ears had rejected their recruit, they had shifted their attention on Potion Maniac instead .

The wage in Sky Provisions Shop was calculated by adding basic salary with commissions . This meant that the more the employees did, the more they could earn . For example, Potion King Seven Ears was managing the Provisions Shop and making potions every month, and hence his salary was up to 10,000 dollars! Such an income was quite high for a young man in his twenties . Moreover, Lin Jie had offered him a chance in his most critical moment, so Seven Ears would never betray Lin Jie .

While Potion Maniac’s salary was not lower than Seven Ears’ as he had been making potions all day and night madly! He had a special character since he was known as a maniac . How could his salary be low when he made potions all day long like an indefatigable robot .

But one day, Potion Maniac was suddenly asked out .

When the other party heard that the owner of the Sky Provisions Shop had signed a contract with Potion Maniac and asked him to risk his life to work hard by “threatening” him with a shitty house, they were filled with righteous indignation and wanted to seek a remedy for the injustice . They claimed that with Potion Maniac’s strength, they were willing to pay the liquidated damages for him if he’s willing to leave the Sky Provisions Shop and join them . Upon that, they were offering 500,000 immediate cash when he joined their guild, a basic monthly salary of 100,000 dollars and commissions were counted separately!

Potion Maniac’s heart was shaken by these generous benefits immediately . After decades of struggles and being treated coldly, he was suddenly respected and appreciated by others when he got used to others’ jeers . Coupled with such a generous offer, he had been itching to try and quit the Sky Provisions Shop immediately!

He had found Lin Jie on that night and asked to leave the Sky Provisions Shop .

Lin Jie smiled and said, “You don’t seem to have paid off the money you owe me, do you?”

“Yes, but I’ll pay it off in one day, including liquidated damages . ” With a patron, Potion Maniac stuck out his chest and said, “After I leave, I’ll receive a 500,000 dollars of transfer fee and three months salary, which is enough to pay off my debt . But I’m also a grateful person, you don’t have to pay me the money I have earned for you during this period . ”

“Ha, hahaha… What a grateful person! You don’t really think that’s your gift to me, do you?” Lin Jie laughed so hard that he could not stand up straight . “When I first went to look for you, I knew very well that I might misread you! Now, it comes true! Potion Maniac, do you think you owe this achievement to yourself? Who provided you with potion ingredients? Who provided you with the pharmacy? And who gave you the recipes? Does your mother knows that you’re speaking with such great confidence?”

Potion Maniac looked serious and said, word by word, “I’ve already given you back what you gave me! We don’t owe each other . From now on, you take the open road, and I’ll cross the log bridge!”

“No, you still owe me a lot . A big favor at least . ” Lin Jie gave a bitter smile .

Potion Maniac stood up, put a few gold coins on the table, and walked towards the door . “Never meet again!”

Listening to the heavy shutting behind him, Lin Jie shook his glass . He did not say a word, but the corners of his mouth were slightly bitter . Every person had different personalities, and not all talent scouts would be remembered for centuries after they had founded the prodigies . On the contrary, they might be kicked to death by the prodigies .

It was the truth that Potion Maniac made money for Lin Jie and would pay off all his debts . He felt no shame as he did not owe Lin Jie anything .

As of favor, it was probably out of his considerations .

Lin Jie took a deep breath, drank all the liquor in his glass, and left the pub . Seven Ears and Bella were standing at the counter when Lin Jie reached the Sky Provisions Shop .

Seven Ears came up and asked, “He left?”

“Yes . ” Lin Jie shook his head .

“To be honest, I actually liked this fellow, but…” Seven Ears did not say much and signaled Bella to comfort Lin Jie as he knew that Lin Jie was in a bad mood . After all, he’s a man who could not comfort people as well as a girl, especially a girl with a “weapon” .

“Who recruited him?” Lin Jie asked .

“Kingdom of Glory . ”

“Hahaha…” Lin Jie could not help but laugh . “God knows that I would become the cat’s paw one day! How funny! Forget it… Show me the stock in the shop . ”

Bella knew what Lin Jie meant . She smiled mysteriously and said, “Boss, Seven Ears had been preparing for this gift for a long time . ”

[Perfect Natural Potion]: For every second in the next 3 minutes, this can recover 200 Health Points or Mana Points in total . The effect can only be set once .

There were 30 bottles of Perfect Natural Potion in total! Over the past month, only 30 bottles had been obtained even though Potion Maniac and Seven Ears had made tens of thousands of bottles of potion!

It was a rare special potion, with an effect similar to Slow Restoring Potions but much more powerful! One reason was that the user could choose the effect freely . For example, the user could choose the recover 200 Health Points or 100 Health Points and Mana Points each . The other reason was that it offered a shocking number of recovery points! 200 points per second!

In Savage Blade, Bu Yi’s job was the most mana demanding as she had learned the Mass Dispel . At the critical moment, she would probably need to use Mass Dispel, which spent 100 mana points, Power Word Shield, which spent 60 mana points, and other divine spells like healing and recovering . Even if she tried to minimize the mana consumption when killing the Boss, she would still suffer from the problem of sustenance .

But with this potion, which provided a mana point recovery at 200 points per second, she would be able to keep her mana bar at above 50% even if she chanted the divine spells wastefully! If it was used with some crowd control skills, her mana points would be barely consumed for 3 minutes!

“Good job!” Lin Jie held the potions and giggled as he hugged Seven Ears’ shoulder .

Seven Ears also laughed . He knew that at this point in time when Lin Jie had just lost a member, he needed someone to stand at his side .

Bella looked at them with feigned surprise and gave her boss a charming glance, “I thought you liked women . ”

They separated quickly . Men could bend anywhere but not their sexual orientation .

“Oh yeah, I have something for you!” Bella smiled and took out a scroll from her bag . “Boss, this was given to me by a Bandit in exchange for my number . ”

Lin Jie took over the scroll and laughed . “Then, won’t you suffer a loss?”

“It’s okay, I gave him Seven Ears’ number,” Bella said elegantly .

Seven Ears stared at her and felt like weeping but had no tears . “Damn, that’s vicious . No wonder I keep receiving weird messages these days . It turns out that you set me up…”

Lin Jie smiled, his pupils constricted as he opened the scroll .

[Sign of Wind Spirit Spell Scroll]: You can release ‘Sign of Wind Spirit’ once .

[Sign of Wind Spirit]: This can increase the whole team’s Attack Speed, Movement Speed, Mana, and Health Recovering Speed by 30% within 30 seconds . It also comes with a 15% Wind Spirit Dodge, which has a probability of dodging all physical and mana attacks .

Lin Jie took a deep breath .

Sign of Wind Spirit was an epic skill which could only be learned after a Wind Mage had leveled up, and there was only a very small probability for one to receive the epic job mission .

Its value could be equivalent to Dark Gold equipment! This was because it not only had an additional effect of 30% attributes but also another 15% chance to be Invincible .

“Bella, Seven Ears, thank you . ” Lin Jie was very touched . “Thank you for still staying in the Sky Provisions Shop at this time . ”

“Boss…”

“Boss, I’m not used to you saying that . ”

The three of them sat quietly, and after a long time, they suddenly laughed .

At this moment, there was a knock at the door .

Seven Ears opened the door in surprise as it was Potion Maniac who stood at the door! This forty-years-old man looked like he had done something wrong, with his face red and head down, he stood there in silence .

“Big brother, my dad knows that he was wrong, could you forgive him?” With a crisp voice, a little child squeezed in and made a funny face to Lin Jie .
