Wizard, I have a different world.

Chapter 88 Assassination (Please collect)

At dawn, a group of people appeared in front of Carl's shop in the Herb Market, shouting loudly.

The women and children among them knelt on the ground and wailed, while the others had angry expressions on their faces.

"Karl!"

"come out!"

"You murderer! You devil!"

"You treacherous and despicable pharmacist, not only will I not get paid for working for you, but I will also lose my life for it!"

"Get out of here!"

The more fun there is, the better.

Soon, the shop was crowded with passers-by, all whispering to each other.

The news that Carl killed people without paying them quickly spread.

"Our captain Gray died at sea while working for Carl. When his brother asked him for the remaining payment, he was beaten to death!"

Charles, with his arms wrapped in white cloth, shouted:
"In Freeport, everyone knows what it means for a family to lose two men."

“How will women and children survive next?”

"We are also members of the Dragon King Chamber of Commerce. Are we just going to let others bully us like this?"

"Karl!"

The blood in his neck throbbed, and he roared towards the store:

"come out!"

"Get out of here!"

"What are so many people doing here?" At this moment, a slightly hoarse voice sounded:

"Your name……"

"Charles, huh?"

Charles turned around, his expression changed, and he lowered his head in panic:

"Ms. Lula!"

"Yeah." Lola put her hands behind her back and came to the door of the store accompanied by Susan, Carl and others.

"We are all members of the Chamber of Commerce. If there are any problems, we can just solve them privately. There is no need to make such a fuss."

She waved her hand:
"Let everyone go!"

"This..." Charles looked embarrassed.

He wanted to refuse, but the person in front of him was the daughter of the Chamber of Commerce president and the top executive in business.

"Lula."

The crowd of onlookers parted to the sides, and a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes stepped out:
"Since you knew he was one of your own, you shouldn't have been so ruthless in the beginning."

"He's so cruel to his own people. Let's not talk about other things for now. I'm afraid there are some issues with Pharmacist Karl's character."

"Jasper!" Lola looked at the person coming, her face darkening slightly:
"I didn't expect you to be here too."

Jasper,
One of the vice presidents of Dragon King Chamber of Commerce.

Mainly responsible for all matters related to going out to sea.

Simultaneously,

He is also a great knight!

"I was just bored and came out for a walk. I happened to see a group of people gathered here, so I came over to join in the fun." Jasper smiled faintly:

"How did Lula have time to come here?"

"The Chamber of Commerce is in urgent need of a batch of medicines. I'll come to get them." Lula explained, and then said:

"I've also heard about Gray's situation. The mission he took was dangerous in the first place, so he can't blame anyone else for getting killed."

"Going out to sea..."

"You should know that death is normal."

Since you have accepted a dangerous mission, you must be prepared for danger, otherwise why would you deserve a high reward?
High returns come with high risks, that's how it is, you can't blame others.

"Yes." Jasper nodded.

"But killing Gray's brother, Carl, is a bit too much. You can't ignore the rules of the Chamber of Commerce just because Carl is a pharmacist that the Chamber of Commerce values, right?"

"Gar is too greedy."

"But not to the point of death!"

Lula was silent.

"There's no need for you two to argue." Carl stepped forward and advised:

"I was indeed impulsive about the matter with Gar. So..."

"I'll pay 2,000 God's Grace coins to handle Gal's funeral, and the rest will be used to settle his family."

"How about it?"

"Good!" Lula clapped her hands:
"Ok, deal!"

Then he looked at Jasper.

"You don't have any objections?"

"..." Jasper's eyes flickered, and he paused for a moment at Carl and Lula before nodding:

"can."

As for Charles, who led the crowd to cause trouble, no one asked for his opinion and he was automatically ignored by the two men.

A group of people come and go quickly.

After watching Jasper and the others leave, Carl spoke:
"I have to thank Miss Lula for helping me today. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would be in trouble."

"It should be." Lula smiled calmly:
"You did the right thing. You should have informed me in advance of this kind of thing. How can I let others bully my people?"

"As for that Gal..."

"Good kill!"

Yesterday, Carl told the other party what happened, and Lola also expressed her willingness to come forward.

The Chamber of Commerce is in urgent need of medicines now, and as the top pharmacist in Freeport, he is certainly worth winning over.

"But it won't be that easy to resolve."

Lula narrowed her eyes and said:

"Jasper's nickname is Cunning Fox. He is a very cunning person. There is no way he can retreat so easily."

"He attacked you just to make me look bad. Since things didn't go well today, he must have other means."

"Wait!"

night.

Two figures appeared near the courtyard where Karl lived.

They were dressed in night clothes, holding their breath, and silently rushed to the courtyard, heading straight for the only room where there was still light.

"Shh!"

The two men drew their swords and were about to attack when one of them suddenly stopped and shouted:

"wrong!"

"It's a trap, go!"

"Let's go?" A cold laugh came from not far away. Susan, dressed in tight clothes, holding a scimitar, stepped out:

"late!"

Before she finished her words, torches lit up all around her.

Moreover, more than a dozen strong guards from the Dragon King Chamber of Commerce rushed out and surrounded the two people.

"It's just as Miss Lula expected."

Carl clapped his hands lightly, pushed the door open and walked out:
"Someone really came to trouble me at night! Were you sent by Jasper or Charles?"

"What Jasper, Charles?" One of the men in black groaned:

"never heard of that!"

"go!"

With a low shout, the two men turned around and rushed in the direction they came from. They were as fast as lightning, and the long swords in their hands danced out cold rays of light.

Susan shouted:

"Stop them!"

The guards raised their steel forks and stabbed at the two men, and powerful arrows shot from the darkness.

The guards had been preparing for a long time and cooperated well with each other. A seemingly casual move actually blocked the opponent's forward momentum.

"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."

"Peng!"

"careful!"

"It's a knight, and the Shadow Sign!"

The strength of the two was beyond everyone's expectations. Everyone roared, but they couldn't stop retreating.

"Zheng!"

Susan drew her knife.

The scimitar drew a graceful arc and went straight towards one of them. The blade light was looming and the murderous intent was sharp.

Combat skill——Dark Moon Slash!

"Ding……"

"puff!"

Blood splattered.

Although the assassin's strength is not weak, he is far inferior to Susan, not to mention the entanglement of other guards.

He was injured after just a few moves.

at this time.

A shadow appeared silently behind Carl, like a poisonous snake baring its fangs in the dark.

There is actually an assassin!
When everyone else's attention was drawn to the two assassins on the field, the real killer move also emerged.

"careful!"

Susan turned around suddenly and was horrified when she saw the scene. She didn't bother to pay attention to her opponent and turned around and pounced.

However,

It's obviously too late!

"Ding……"

Carl drew his sword at the critical moment.

The broadsword was across his back, and although it blocked the incoming attack, his body lost balance and rolled to the ground.

"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."

The sound of the collision was like rain hitting banana leaves.

Susan brandished her scimitar and collided wildly with the intruder, with sparks flying as figures intersected and metal clashed.

"go!"

The last assassin to appear groaned softly, and suddenly intensified his attack, rushing out of the encirclement with his two companions.

In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the night.

"Karl!"

Susan didn’t care about chasing and rushing to Karl’s side:
"How are you?"

"Huh..." Karl's face turned pale, he shook his shoulders and forced a smile:

"It's okay, I just strained some muscles. I'll be fine after a few days of rest. It's a pity that I couldn't take down the assassin."

"Otherwise, I can get Jasper into trouble in front of the president."

"It's not that simple." Susan shook her head:
"Even if we catch him, Jasper won't admit it, but don't worry, the three of them won't get any benefits."

As he said this, he smiled coldly.

The scimitar in her hand was highly poisonous. Fortunately, the master was not injured, but the other two were either dead or disabled.

In Freeport, a disabled knight is as good as dead.

Maybe worse!

…………

The night is getting darker.

Several oil lamps were lit, making the room as bright as day.

Charles ordered a table full of food and wine, and at the invitation of others, he stretched out his hands and started eating and drinking.

His hobbies are different from others.

I don't like beautiful women.

Do not love money,

He is only interested in various kinds of food, and even makes money just to buy more delicious food.

"captain."

The new first mate is attentive:

"Try this. This is the meat of a hill giant. It is a legendary creature that lives in the mountains. It is said that it can kill a great knight with one punch. Unfortunately, it has no wisdom and was killed after being knocked unconscious by drugs."

"Oh!" Charles' eyes lit up, he grabbed a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, swallowing it in no time.

The first mate was secretly surprised when he saw this.

The meat of the hill giant is very firm and will not become mushy even if it is stewed for three days and three nights. Ordinary people simply cannot digest it.

Even a knight with exaggerated internal organs has to take small sips and taste slowly, but Charles was able to do it so easily.

No wonder he was able to kill the former Captain Gray. His strength must have reached the level of a peak knight.

"Not bad!"

Charles licked his lips, his eyes sparkling:
"Legendary creatures' meat tastes better, but it's too expensive. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to get enough of it even if I ate it every day."

"How could that be?" the first mate laughed.
"Captain, you have inherited Gray's ship. Every time you go out to sea, it will cost at least several thousand Divine Grace Coins."

"You can eat any meat you want!"

"Haha..." Charles laughed:

"makes sense!"

"eat!"

"drink!"

He waved his hands:
"Don't stop!"

Several people nodded and ate the food on the table until Charles looked down.

"Do you feel..."

"Is the ground shaking?"

"Is there?" The first mate wiped his mouth and smiled.
"It's probably because the waves are too big. The waves in the sea have been more severe recently than in previous years, and it's becoming more and more dangerous to go out to sea."

"Yes!"

The others nodded repeatedly.

"No." Charles suddenly flipped the table and his face changed:

"ground……"

"Peng!"

Before he could finish his words, the ground suddenly shook violently, and dozens of bloodthirsty vines as thick as children's arms shot out like lightning.

The thorny bloodthirsty vines spread across the entire room in the blink of an eye, enveloping the people in the room. The thorns pierced into the flesh, sucking blood crazily.

The vines that have sucked blood grow thicker at a speed visible to the naked eye, and their strangling and binding force becomes stronger.

blink.

The house was almost a jungle of vines.

"what!"

Screams sounded.

Streaks of blood splattered out from the gaps in the vines, and the lively and plump body quickly became shriveled.

"Peng!"

There was a loud noise.

Charles' hands were like knives, and he wielded the vines around him madly. The vines collided with his arms and were cut instantly.

"Who?"

"Come out!"

Combat skill - Flame Windmill!
A violent flame appeared out of nowhere, like a wheel of choice, and rushed towards the vines in the field.

“Pangbang…”

All of a sudden.

The vines were ignited by the flames and withered quickly, and the area around Charles suddenly became empty.

A figure hidden in it was also revealed.

Carl!

Carl held a rapier in his hand and stabbed one of the men lightly, causing him to feel chilled to the heart. He looked sideways with a look of surprise on his face.

"Unexpectedly..."

"You're pretty strong!"

He took advantage of the night to strike, thinking he could easily kill the target, but he didn't expect there would be a small trouble.

but.

It's just a minor inconvenience.

"It's you?" Charles looked surprised at first, then filled with rage.

"You are so brave, you dare to come here..."

"Go to hell!"

He reached out and grabbed the long sword beside him. The blade lit up and a layer of flame appeared on its own.

"call……"

The flaming long knife pounced on Carl.

Charles' strength has reached the peak of knighthood, and he has also mastered a special martial art. The long sword in his hand is also attached with witchcraft materials. Once the fighting spirit is stimulated, it will burn with flames.

In the Knight stage,
Definitely a top master!

"Shh!"

The long sword broke through the air.

Zero-ring witchcraft-secondary magic force field!
Charles' body paused slightly, but the long sword continued to move forward.

"Wow..."

A stream of water appeared out of nowhere and turned into a huge water ball, completely wrapping Carl inside.

Zero-ring witchcraft-green wave protection!
When the flaming sword came into contact with the water flow, thick smoke instantly rose up and its forward speed also slowed down.

"Guna!"

Carl raised his hand.

"Crash..."

The armor protects itself.

"Ding!"

The long sword hit the armor like a mosquito nail on the body, and it didn't even make Carl shake.

"Is that all?"

Karl sighed softly, as if he felt a little regretful, and then raised his wrist slightly.

prick!
Stab!

Stab!

The sharp rapier kept stabbing out, forcing Charles to retreat again and again, and his body was also scratched with several streaks of blood.

at the same time.

The bloodthirsty vine that had dealt with the others twisted its body and pounced on him.

With Carl's rapier in front and bloodthirsty vines behind, Charles had no way to retreat in the blink of an eye and could only roar in grief and anger.

"what!"

"I'll fight you!"

"boom!"

Flames exploded.

how...

"puff!"

As the rapier in Carl's hand pierced his head, Charles' body fell to the ground with a bang, and everything was over.

"As long as it's not a great knight-level attack, there's no need to intercept it. The defense is enough to resist it."

"A peak knight is still a knight!"

Putting away the sword, Carl turned over the corpse out of habit, and then his eyes lit up.

Day two.

"Did you hear that?"

Susan crossed her legs and said with a smile:

"Charles died in his own home last night, along with several of his close friends."

"Oh!" Karl, whose arm was bandaged, raised his eyebrows and asked:
"Could it be that Miss Lula did it?"

"This..." Susan's expression froze slightly, and she hesitated for a moment before saying:
"Probably not. Although everyone else said it was Lula who did it, and Jasper even went to the Chamber of Commerce to make a scene, I don't think it fits her character."

"And Miss Lula didn't admit it."

"It doesn't matter." Carl chuckled.
"No matter who did it, I finally got some relief. I wonder if Jasper will cause trouble for me later?"

"You can rest assured about this." Susan waved her hand:
"It was a great knight who killed Charles. Jasper knows very well that it had nothing to do with you. Besides, the Chamber of Commerce is in urgent need of your potion, and the president will not let him do whatever he wants."

"Miss..."

"Where can we find a great knight?"

It seems that

Even she suspected that it was Lola's doing, or at least there was a connection. Karl smiled faintly and didn't say much.

He is a wounded soldier now, so this matter definitely has nothing to do with him.

Black Swamp.

island.

"As the saying goes, a man cannot become rich without unexpected wealth, and a horse cannot grow fat without night grass. The ancients were honest and I am not lying!"

Carl sighed.

Killing Charles secretly was nothing to him, but the richness of the harvest was undoubtedly unexpected.

There was a box in the room, which was full of Divine Grace Coins, totaling nearly ten thousand.

Tens of thousands of God’s Grace Coins!
Apart from the great knights, perhaps only certain commercial forces could come up with it in one go.

"Given Charles' personality, it is impossible for him to accumulate so many God's Grace coins. It is most likely Gray's inheritance."

"Tsk tsk..."

"I spent so much effort to get the previous captain's inheritance, but in the end it was just me. You really can't do anything that goes against your conscience!"

Carl shook his head and sighed.

Compared to the God's Grace Coin, he actually values ​​something else more.

The Melting Pot

The Furnace Breathing Technique is also related to a certain god, and its grade is no lower than Carl's Giant Breathing Technique.

Maybe even higher!

The Furnace Method is not the Furnace Breathing Method, it should be just a branch or secret technique of this breathing method.

A gigantic form similar to the Giant Breathing Technique.

"The furnace of heaven and earth, everything can be refined!"

"eat!"

Carl pursed his lips.

I understand why Charles' hobby is eating, because eating can help him increase his strength.

The better and higher the quality of the food you eat, the more help it will help improve your physical fitness.

The parts of the legendary creatures that have "nutritional value" are better than animal pills when eaten. And unlike animal pills that have drug resistance and cannot be taken frequently, the flesh and blood can be eaten as a meal and can be eaten continuously.

At last……

"Boom!"

Charles' flaming sword was thrown heavily on the table.

"This thing should also be considered a magic weapon, right?"

…………

half a month later.

Carl appeared at the alliance station.

He seemed a little tired, yet strangely excited, as if he had completed a mission.

"Senior Arthur!"

"Karl."

Arthur waved his hand:

"Sit down, sit down quickly, you are a rare guest here."

"Senior." Karl took out a porcelain bottle and placed it on the table:

"I got a berserk potion from a wandering merchant a few years ago, but I don't know if it's real or not. Could you take a look at it, please?"

"I will pay the corresponding appraisal fee."

Arthur is able to become friends with Adolf, so he is naturally also a pharmacist, but he is better at analysis and identification.

In the past half month, Carl tried to refine the violent potion with the blood of water monkeys. Theoretically, one water monkey could produce five portions, but unfortunately his alchemy skills were limited and he only managed to refine one portion.

The reason why we wanted to catch the three-headed water monkey was to be prepared for any eventuality.

"Berserk potion?" Arthur looked surprised.
"This kind of stuff rarely comes out, and most of it is divided up by the royal family and the people of the Vatican."

"Let me see."

Instead of taking the porcelain bottle directly, he turned around and took out a magical item that looked like a microscope.

Then open the porcelain bottle and put it in front of the microscope for observation.

a long time.

"strangeness!"

Arthur frowned and spoke hesitantly:
"It's not quite the same as the bottle of rage potion I analyzed before, but it seems to have some similarities."

“Strange…strange…”

"Senior Arthur." Carl stood up straight and asked:

"Can it be used?"

Of course it's different.

His bottle of rage potion was made with the blood of water monkeys, which was different from the Vatican's formula.

The key is,
Is there any effect?
He only has this one bottle of berserk potion, and if it doesn't work, he'll have to wait a few more months.

A few months later, the Chamber of Commerce will capture several water monkeys alive.

"Yes, it should be usable." Arthur thought for a moment and said:
"Perhaps it has been shelved for too long. The effect may not be as strong as that of the Holy See, but it can be used."

"Karl..."

"You want to become a great knight?"

"Yes." Carl nodded, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and replied:

"My wizard talent is only level four. Even with the legacy left by my mentor, I'm afraid I won't be able to become a high-level wizard apprentice."

"Why not follow the path of knighthood? Maybe you can even touch the realm of a legendary knight."

"Heh..." Arthur chuckled and shook his head:
"Legendary Knight. For an ordinary person with no background to become a legend, the difficulty is no less than becoming a formal wizard."

“But it’s always right to try hard.”

"And..." Carl took out two rings from his body and put Charles' knife on the table:

"I plan to sell these things. Senior, please give me an estimate of the price. If it's suitable, I will sell it to the alliance."

"Magic item!" Arthur's face turned serious:
"Or three pieces, are you really willing to give them up?"

He was not surprised that Carl had so many demonized items on him, and guessed that they were Adolf's legacy.

"Alas." Carl sighed:
"These things won't do much good in my hands, and if I hold them, they might make people miss me."

"It's better to sell it and exchange it for magic stones for peace of mind."

"Okay then." Arthur stopped trying to persuade him. After all, the things belonged to someone else and it was their freedom to decide how to deal with them. Outsiders had no right to interfere.

"Summoning Thorn Ring, a little damaged."

"The Ring Star Sword is also somewhat damaged..."

"This knife..."

"It is mixed with some kind of witchcraft material. If it is stimulated by mental power and fighting spirit, it can release flames."

After a careful review, Arthur said:
"Because the rings are badly damaged, the price is not high. Two rings together can give you eighteen magic stones."

"This sword is too heavy and more suitable for a knight, so even though it is intact, I can only offer it for ten magic stones."

"Twenty-eight magic stones in total!"

He looked up and saw:
"If you are willing to sell it to the Alliance, the cost of identifying the Berserk Potion can be waived for you."

Twenty-eight magic stones?

"sold!"

Karl nodded heavily, feeling a little painful:

"Please exchange ten of these magic stones for Weir potions for me."

What hurt him was not that the things were sold at a low price. After all, he had used them frequently during this period and squeezed their potential, so their durability was not high. He just bought them, but the potion that increased mental strength was too expensive. Even a high-level wizard apprentice might not be able to take it frequently.

Taking drugs to upgrade seems a bit difficult at the moment.

"Vill's Potion?" Arthur smiled.

"It seems that you haven't given up on the path of becoming a wizard."

night.

Fragments of the divine domain.

Carl held the rage potion in his hand, his face solemn, and he raised his head and drank the potion in one gulp.

Ask for collection!
