Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

Sunday, August 5th, at eight o'clock in the evening.

Backlund Bridge District, the back alley of the "Brave Bar", the extraordinary party held by Mr. "Eye of Wisdom" was held as scheduled.

Louise no longer needed to go through the bar owner Kaspers this time, but went directly to the meeting place and knocked on the door in the order of six long and two short.

Soon, a male waiter who confirmed the correct password opened the door. Louise put on a hood to hide her identity and walked into the trading floor. She looked around, but did not recognize the suspected "lawyer" with the "craftsman" " female member, but the chubby "pharmacist" Darkwill is quite eye-catching.

However, Louise believes that tonight will get a satisfactory result.

Whether the "craftsman" is a member of the "Church of the God of Steam and Machinery" or a rare wild "craftsman" in the legend, he needs the experience of making magical items. This is not only a way to make money and reflect his own value, but also An effective way to impersonate... What's more, it's Sequence Six's "Faceless Man" Extraordinary characteristic that he took out, which doesn't appear often, so Louise thinks that the other party will not refuse this rare opportunity.

Members continued to join in one after another, and Mr. "Eye of Wisdom" who was lying on the easy chair announced kindly:

"The party begins."

Before the fat "Pharmacist" Darkwill, the "Ms. Artisan Spokesperson" who always deliberately changed her voice was the first to speak, quite impatiently:

"Was the friend who customized the magical item at the last party?"

Louise smiled without making a sound, and replied, "Yes."

"I can accept your commission." The "Ms. Spokesperson" whose tone fluctuated up and down silently let out a sigh of relief, and then proposed the specific details of the transaction in one go:

"The production cost is 900 pounds, plus the potion formula of 'Barbarian'. Witnessed by Mister 'Eye of Wisdom', the magical item will be delivered to you at the next party."

"Eye of Wisdom" chuckled, and at the same time analyzed in his heart, for the processing cost of 900 pounds, the raw material is likely to be the Extraordinary material of Sequence Six. It seems that this new member is not easy...

He said in a kind, slightly old voice: "If you trust the old man, I can bear this witness."

"I believe in your reputation." The female member with the "craftsman" behind said, then turned to look at Louise who was covered by the hood.

The Extraordinary characteristics of "Faceless Man" are worth about 3,000 to 4,000 pounds, and the processing cost of 900 pounds is not expensive... Louise originally thought that the other party would ask for at least 1,000 pounds, maybe because of consideration The value of the "Barbarian" potion formula... She chuckled and replied:

"It seems that I have no reason to refuse. I hope we can cooperate happily."

Louise took out the tin box she had prepared, handed it to the waiter, and passed it to the other party.

"Ms. Artisan Spokesperson" slowly opened it, and saw a jelly-like object that was constantly changing its illusory face. It was dazzling. Judging by the knowledge she had just acquired, this was indeed the extraordinary characteristic of "Faceless Man"... ...was about to close the tin box, but found that there was still a note inside, with a line of small characters written on it:

"The solid unicorn crystal of the land rhinoceros".

Louise explained on the side: "This is one of the main ingredients of the 'Barbarian' potion, as a deposit."

Although the sincerity of the "artisan" seems to be sufficient, Louise also has to consider the fact that the other party is trying to get him, so she gives a little sweetness in advance, which can not only show sincerity, but also be a kind of seduction.

There is only one name of the main material, so there is no way to verify the authenticity, but it can be searched first, which can save time... "Ms. Spokesperson" thought to herself, silently put away the iron box, and said nothing more.

After a brief silence, a member asked aloud:

"Are there no magical items for sale today?"

The "Ms. Spokesperson" who had just concluded the deal said briskly, "Not this time...well, probably not next time either."

Because of rushing to manufacture the magical items customized by Louise, the "artisan" probably won't have the extra energy to make other items...

The member who asked the question was silent for a moment, and then continued to ask: "Can I customize magical items? Although I don't have spiritual materials, I can add money."

Is it still possible to operate like this... "Ms. Spokesperson" couldn't help being stunned for two seconds. She suddenly felt that this idea was very good. The magical items she sold before may not be sold well, but if she chooses to accept customization, she will definitely be able to sell, even The profit is higher, just to consider the type of spiritual material...

"I need time to think about it, and I'll give you the answer at the next meeting."

…………

"Cough cough".

Seeing that no one was talking, the fat "pharmacist" Darkwill began to carry out the procedures he was used to in every gathering.

"I want to buy the 'Marrow Crystal of the Spirit Spring', who has it?"

The clock was ticking, and everyone kept silent tacitly. Darkwill mumbled something, and continued:

"Two medicines for treating internal and external injuries, and four medicines for improving male performance. First come, first served."

Just like last time, the potion was sold out in a short period of time. Afterwards, the party members became active and put forward their needs one by one.

When the atmosphere was active, a male member said in a deep voice:

"I'm going to sell a magical item that allows you to hear the voice of a great being. If you're lucky, you may get high-end knowledge. If you're unlucky, you may also get a deadly curse."

While speaking, he took out a wooden box from his arms and opened it, revealing a black object shaped like an ear. With just a glance, most of the members had some auditory hallucinations, which was very strange.

Mr. "Eye of Wisdom" is different from the previous leisurely, but sat up straight and roared in a low voice:

"Put it up, I won't allow you to sell this item at my party, it's not a magical item at all, it's a life-threatening curse."

The man shrugged, put the wooden box away wisely, and argued, "I didn't violate the rules you made, but I just wanted to ask if anyone wanted to take a gamble?"

"When I'm about to die, I might choose to buy your things." The fat "Pharmacist" Darkwill muttered.

The brief farce is over and the party continues.

Louise is naturally no stranger to the item that contains the "True Creator's ravings". She glanced at it curiously just now, and clearly felt the unobvious malice hidden in it... There is no cheating, and it is impossible to use this item. It is impossible, it will only be "annoyed to death" by the "true creator"...

Suddenly, a low-pitched male voice said, "I'm going to issue a search mission."

"The target is a woman named Louise. There is an accurate portrait. A valid clue is worth a hundred pounds."
