Chapter 231 Small Town Shop

The town is going to set up a night hunter office, which is not good news for Mu Hua.

How to say it, it's like in a remote mountain area, you suddenly have to pee, just find a place to solve it, no one cares if you are seen.

But the night hunters are more positive, and they will make a big deal out of some things that should be very ordinary.

For example, if Mu Hua had a conflict with someone in the town, any normal person would have to discuss right and wrong, as long as there was no injury, even if there was a fight, everyone would have to talk about reason first.

But if the night hunters saw this, it would be more troublesome, especially when the identities of the conflicting parties are adventurers and settlers.

When the two sides fight, the adventurers must be wrong first! If the settlers suffer some losses, these night hunters will jump more fiercely than the ones who suffer losses.

They contribute their manpower to uphold justice, and suppress by force if possible. If force is not effective, they will provide various legal assistance.

In a word, it will not be over until the adventurers call them daddy.

As long as the people they identify as "supernormal" do something in the human world, they are more nosy than the guards.

To some extent, the Night Hunters have gained their own reputation among the settlers by suppressing adventurers in the human world.

This naturally leads to most adventurers not liking them.

The appearance of Ronald and his friends seems to represent that Bear Pig Town has been valued by all walks of life.

Unlike Will, Mu Hua doesn't want to have too many intersections with the Night Hunters who can be sent to a new place to set up an office.

Again, you have to make friends with dogs. It's very impressive when you scare people, but you have to have no regrets when you are bitten by a dog.

He shook off Ronald and his friends with a little arrogance, and heard Will say that he had just seen a few vampires go to the magic material store.

Mu Hua was curious about how the vampires in the other courtyard got along with the people in the town, so he simply went to the magic material store in the town.

Marzi Selma, although she may be just an ordinary person, she is an old lady who looks more like a witch than all the witches Mu Hua has seen.

She has a very conspicuous hooked nose, a stooped figure due to old age, some age spots on her face, and often wears a loose wizard robe.

Selma's image is very different in the town, and there is usually a strange smell of magic materials on her body. Whether in appearance or temperament, she is very similar to the witch in the story.

It is said that when she was young, she worked as a maid for the witch. Later, the witch died, and she came to the town to settle down.

Because she would popularize some precautions about magic items and magic materials to the children in the town, many middle-aged people in the town have received her guidance when they were young.

Although her image is a bit scary, her reputation in the town is not low.

Because she has lost five husbands, no one dares to marry her daughter until now, which has also caused Selma to seem a bit mean in recent years.

"Hi, Selma, how's business lately?" Mu Hua greeted the old woman behind the counter as he walked into the magic material store located in the best area of ​​the town.

"Damn Adventurer's Guild, I'm almost forced to close down by it. Mu, you should suggest that the academy come to me to buy goods, and I will give you a satisfactory commission." Facing Mu Hua who looked around after entering the house, Selma complained.

"Ha, there are not many people in the town who buy magic materials, and the Adventurer's Guild will not sell apple pies." Mu Hua walked to the counter and said with a smile.

Bear Pig Town was originally a remote town, and you can't expect the magic materials here to sell well.

When there were still many ferocious bear pigs around the town, Selma would prepare poison for the townspeople to hunt bear pigs, and some materials for setting traps also sold well.

However, as the bear pigs were hunted to death, the magic materials in Selma's store were basically unsalable.

Although it has a sign of Magic Material Store, in fact, well, the apple pie of Malz Magic Material Store is very popular among the townspeople. . .

"Damn it, don't you see that I still have customers here? No one will use magic fruit to make apple pie, don't even think about getting me to buy your magic fruit." Facing Mu Hua's teasing, Selma said angrily.

The layout of Selma's store is like a small supermarket, with many bottles and jars on the shelves, and even some "parts" taken from creatures.

There were two men in the store at this time. Mu Hua walked in and looked at them, but did not say hello to them.

Although the two vampires looked no different from humans, the whites of their eyes were faintly silvery, and as long as they had a little understanding of the blood race, they could easily be distinguished.

Unlike what Mu Hua imagined, these two vampires were not students of the Dusk Courtyard, but two foreign vampires.

"Hey, Selma, don't be like that. The magic fruit is just a small suggestion. Look at what gift I brought you." Mu Hua took out an item and smiled at Selma.

Vampires can also have legal identities. As long as they don't cause trouble, it's okay to take a bath in a public bath. Mu Hua is not a policeman, so it's impossible for him to question them.

"Your suggestion makes Sam very nervous. He is afraid that I will steal his fast food restaurant business. Damn, they have forgotten the past... huh?" Selma grumbled, and when she saw the items Mu Hua put on the counter, her eyes froze.

"Whole Mandrake?" Selma looked at Mu Hua in confusion.

"How is it? Do you like it?" Sitting on the swivel chair in front of the counter, Mu Hua asked with a smile.

"This thing is not easy to collect. The price of the whole herb is not low. What? Do you want me to help you pursue Athena?" Selma asked Mu Hua after picking up the whole Mandrake herb and flipping through it.

"... No, it's just a gift for you. I collected a batch and I can't use it for the time being." Mu Hua twitched his mouth and hurriedly rejected Selma's inquiry.

Although Selma looks like an old witch now, for Bear Pig Town, she was also a hot girl who had seen the world when she was young.

Selma should have been very popular when she was young, otherwise it would be impossible for her five husbands to die in a row.

Athena is Selma's daughter. I heard she is pretty, but Selma's marriage history is too exaggerated, so no one dares to marry Athena.

In desperation, Selma asked her to leave the town, and it seems that she is going to let her find a husband outside. The people in the town are not very clear about the specific situation, but they only know that it seems that she has not been able to do so so far.

Mu Hua is not sure whether Selma's daughter is pretty or not, but the name Athena is a homonym of Athena.

Including the name of Ikaros, in this world, such names are usually given by witches when they give up their original lives and change their names.

Selma obviously gave her daughter a witch's name. Thinking of the five old fathers-in-law who are not sure whether they are going to hell or heaven, Mu Hua is also a little scared of Athena.

"Tsk, coward." Seeing Mu Hua's expression that was afraid that she would misunderstand, Selma clicked her tongue.

"I'll sell this in the store. Here, I should be able to make room for you at the counter. Do you want to bring some potions here?" Selma looked disgusted, but her tone was much calmer than before.

"Forget it. There are many aspects of potions that are hard to say. Do you have the qualifications to sell potions? I don't want to cause trouble for you." Mu Hua shook his head.

"I'm an old woman. What kind of trouble can I have? Selling some physical potions, soul potions, etc., who can catch me?" Selma was quite tough, and she didn't put on a too upright attitude of being a troublemaker.

Some people like to give people words such as kindness, honesty, and simplicity, which is mostly because they want people to have such a personality.

But how can people be born with a certain personality because of their identity?

Perhaps "trickery" is the character that has always accompanied the people, and their degree of being a troublemaker is directly related to the comfort of their lives.

That is to say, poor mountains and bad waters produce troublemakers. The worse the comfort of life, the more tricky people are.

Of course, those who believe that the people should be simple and kind and thus live their lives in the ditch are excluded.

"No time, I don't have time to do that." Mu Hua spread his hands.

Selma glanced at Mu Hua with disdain, found a wooden box covered with silk cloth to put away the whole Mandrake grass, and did not talk about helping him sell potions.

Earlier, Mu Hua would buy potion materials to brush potion formulas, but as his own magic improved, Mu Hua had less time to make potions.

The effects of most low- and medium-level potions can actually be achieved through magic, and the materials of those potions with magical effects are both expensive and difficult to buy.

Mu Hua wanted to challenge alchemy, but the main material consumed in refining magic stones is magic core magic stones. For the time being, he threw those things directly into the burning source furnace. Now Mu Hua would feel bad to use them to burn alchemy.

Expecting alchemy to make a comeback? Oh, by the time he makes the Philosopher's Stone, the materials he consumes will probably be enough for him to make a basket of Hundred Refined Secret Stones.

The only potion that Mu Hua can show off is the Vision Potion. He has not even succeeded in refining the Life Potion.

Unless he gets some special potion materials, such as blood from his own students, he will be able to brush up on the formula of the Life Potion.

Life Potion, Youth Potion, Strengthening Potion without side effects, and even Transition Potion that can increase life span, potions are not useless, but the main materials for making these potions have long been stolen by those genuine alchemists.

As for those potions that can be mass-produced in the outside world, Mu Hua will make some as emergency reserves, and at most leave some in the hotel, which can be regarded as providing some convenient services for the hotel.

Mu Hua does not need certification to sell potions. If there is a quality problem with the potion, the Night Hunter will directly come to the door to arrest the person.

Mu Hua was chatting with Selma. Two vampires in the store took some magic materials to the counter to pay, and asked Selma to take a few magic materials that would not be placed outside.

When they asked about the price of the whole Mandrake herb, Selma refused. Without much communication, the two glanced at Mu Hua and left the store.

The whole Mandrake herb is not precious because it will make a noise that damages the soul when it is dug. Their main problem is that it is difficult to pick.

And the places where this kind of herb can be used are often not very "kind", such as curse potions, such as refining corpse demons, etc.

"Mu, I smell a teasing smell on them, I don't like them very much." The two left the store, and Selma told them why she didn't want to sell them Mandrake.

"You can smell this too?" Mu Hua was surprised.

"Women's intuition." Selma said.

"Women...? Selma, you... are really brave." Mu Hua looked weird, looking at the age spots on Selma's face.

"Damn it! Is there anything else? If you have nothing else, just watch the store for me, I'm going to make an apple pie." Selma's old face turned red, and she was a little angry.
