141 Epic Ques (1/2)
After clearing the Heroic Mode once, Jiang Fei had gained another half of a bar's worth of experience points. Simultaneously, those in the team had reached levels between 20 and 30, while even acquiring quite a few fresh pieces of equipment.
When they came out from the dungeon, Jiang Fei arranged for some of the people to train and increase their levels. Thereafter, he delegated some of the less urgent tasks to Rosette Rose, as he was not too well versed at issues related to management.
Rosette Rose was squealing internally. Jiang Fei trusted her. Moreover, managing the guild was her birthright!
After excusing himself from the overly-attached Mrs. Awesome, Jiang Fei sent a voice message to Herb Box. Ever since his close brush with death courtesy of the ninja, Jiang Fei had grown highly aware of the importance of strengthening his potions. Therefore, he urgently hoped he could get his hands on a certain number of strengthening potions and hopefully be able to sleep at night.
”Yo! Brother Fei, do you have assignments for me?”
Herb Box laughed heartily. After all, Jiang Fei was a famed person in Dawnlight City. He was the number one in terms of level, tanking, being a big-shot equipment dealer, and walking mobile banks. Very few people would not have heard about Verdure Glider!
”Yes! Let us meet up!” Jiang Fei nodded.
”Alright! I am at 'xxx,' see you there!” Herb Box answered excitedly.
Very soon, Jiang Fei arrived at the rendezvous point.
”Brother Fei! Over here!” Herb Box shouted from the door to a small tavern. These small taverns came with a few features. One was the big living room. There would be a public notice board which displayed the details of some daily quests. Players would usually gather around to chat and went about with their tasks, if any. Players could also mingle in private compartments. Each person had to pay an entry fee of five silver coins. These compartments contained their own instances, just like private dungeons. Players could speak freely in these compartments without much worry. Nobody would interfere. They could also trade in safety without worrying about robbers.
”Come! Let us talk inside!” Jiang Fei sent a party invite to Herb Box. He paid ten silver coins and directly entered the compartment.
”Let's hear it, Brother Fei,” Herb Box started. After all, Jiang Fei had always been his greatest customer.
”Yes! Do you still have those strength potions?” Jiang Fei went straight to the point.
”I still have ten bottles. But I'm not going to lie to you. They're crap. They don't help much, and cost way too much to be worth anything. Ever since learning the Recipe, I have only made twenty bottles. Apart from the two bottles you bought previously, no one else has ever been interested in any of them!” Herb Box said.
”Great! I'll take all of them!” Jiang Fei nodded. He was only left with one bottle. These ten additional bottles should last him a fair bit.
”No problem!” Herb Box said, turning to retrieve the remaining ten bottles of the Beginner Defensive Potion.
”Alright!” Jiang Fei accepted the potions and handed Herb Box twenty gold coins.
”Brother Fei, I have recently acquired the Recipe for a new type of potion. Are you interested?” Herb Box asked.
”Oh? What would that be?” Jiang Fei asked, curious.
”Speed Potion!” Herb Box said, holding up a sample.
Jiang Fei took it in his hands and took a closer look.
