Wizard Immortality

Chapter 91: Heartless Man丨Long-term Investment
Old acquaintance?
Locke was a little unsure for a moment.

Although Anna was seriously injured and looked very bad, her former beauty could still be seen in her appearance.

Wearing a luxurious violet robe.

Earrings, rings, necklaces.

The accessories used to embellish the body are low-key and luxurious.

Could it be?

Locke did not dare to neglect and said hurriedly, "Lady Anna, please wait here."

Anna nodded.

Standing in the courtyard outside the gate.

Soon, Locke came hurriedly and said in a sincere tone, "The master invites you in."

"Thank you."

We met at the Snow Mountain Market.

Anna didn't think too much about it. She just felt that Vic looked pleasing to the eye and was to her liking, so she took the initiative to throw herself into his arms and maintain their relationship in bed.

See now.

She felt a sigh in her heart.

Take this detached house for example.

The annual rent is no less than a thousand soul stones.

Vic is so financially strong and powerful, and despite all these years of close companionship, she only knows the tip of the iceberg. After all this, she feels that she is not worthy of Vic.

Jewelers, like alchemists, are mysterious professions.

But at the first level, the ability to make money varies greatly.

A low-level wizard orb with mediocre effects, so few wizards buy it.

In addition, the production is complicated and the cost is high.

Like Anna, he is only slightly richer than the average first-level wizard, and his wealth is far from reaching Vic's level.

A jeweler who can earn soul stones steadily.

They generally work in powerful wizarding organizations and receive large orders.

If you really want to make money.

It is necessary to wait until a high level period to master the branch disciplines of system architecture in the field of creation and make knowledge system model gems.

Some powerful wizarding organizations and families with deep roots.

They will choose to purchase a complete system, mass-produce low-level wizards, and expand their military forces.

Although mass-produced wizards have a very short lifespan, their advantage lies in their large numbers.

A system can be sold at a sky-high price at any price.

However, these things were beyond Anna's reach and ability.

In the reception room.

Vic was wearing a loose black robe and sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed.

The Loken brought them to the back.

Lower your head, close the door and exit the room.

Anna glanced around the simply decorated living room, her eyes passing over the crystal chandelier and cashmere carpet and landing on Vic.

Vic raised his eyelids and said, "Sit."

Anna lowered her posture and stood in front of Vic. She sighed and said frankly, "Vic, I want to ask you to do me a favor."

Under the warm yellowish light.

The once hot and pretty lady in the Snow Mountain Trading Market, her whole demeanor can only be described as being in a bleak situation.

Her long black hair was a little messy, probably because she hadn't taken care of it for a long time.

Lips turn white.

Breathing is weak.

Her dressing style has also changed from being ostentatious in the past, and the high-necked lining even covers her neck tightly.

The broken left leg was wrapped in gauze. Although a prosthesis was installed underneath, the pervasive stench and the yellow water seeping out of the gauze showed that the injury was obviously serious.

but.

Vic was unmoved.

He and Anna were only blood friends, and their relationship was average. He said in a calm voice, "You want me to help you mix a healing potion."

"good."

Anna then told Vic about her experience, and she gnashed her teeth in hatred when she mentioned the alchemist who embezzled her materials and soul stones.

".He must have seen that I was seriously injured and dying, and that I had no ability to retaliate, so he did it on purpose! I will definitely avenge this!"

Vic said indifferently, "In that case, you came to see me empty-handed. My time is precious, please go back."

in business.

Directly issuing an order to expel the guest does not mean that he will not help, but it is a negotiation tactic to exert extreme pressure in order to squeeze out as much benefit as possible.

If Anna doesn't accept it, she can leave at any time.

If she wants to live.

The conditions are not something she can control.

Besides, the friendship between the two of them was not good enough.

Vic doesn't lack her little bit of benefits.

Whether she agrees or not depends entirely on her personal wishes, and Vic will not force her.

Anna was not surprised by Vic's answer.

The bed is accompanied.

She knew this person's strengths and weaknesses very well.

If Vic really welcomed her warmly and promised to help her in a few words, she would be suspicious of this guy's motives.

Anna was silent for a while, then said, "You and I have known each other for more than 20 years. Tell me frankly, under what conditions can you agree to save me?"

Vic got to the point and said, "I want you to owe me a favor. If I ask you to pay it back in the future, you can't refuse."

For wizards.

Favors are far more expensive than soul stones.

Now they are only first-level wizards, and when Anna asks Vic for help, she gets a first-level potion.

Once she is promoted to level two in the future.

Or even higher.

The favor she owed would naturally increase in value. Once she agreed to it, no matter how much Vic asked for in the future, she would not be able to refuse.

Anna frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, but let me make it clear in advance, if you ask me to die, I will not agree."

Vic said indifferently, "Okay."

A few words.

The deal is done.

Now that her life was safe, Anna felt a little relieved, but there was still a hint of resentment in her eyes as she looked at Vic.

I sighed in my heart.

What a heartless man.
but.

She was quite envious of Vic's character, and she knew she couldn't be so heartless.

But the wizard's path is full of thorns.

Only by not being disturbed by external things can you achieve something and go far.

Now the deal is done.

Vic will be responsible for the potions and expenses needed for healing.

What was a huge expense for Anna was just a drop in the bucket for him.

A small amount of soul stone.

In exchange for a favor a wizard couldn't refuse, it was well worth it.

Even if Anna died unexpectedly, Vic would only lose a thousand soul stones, which was not enough to pay his rent for a year.

Wizards have long lives.

The strength at a certain moment does not represent one's future strength.

Anna's favor is a long-term investment.

Just like what the Deep Star Queen of the Night Crow Society did back then, Vic still owes her a favor.

future.

The value of this favor will only increase and will not depreciate.

Vic stood up, took a serious look at Anna's injuries, and said, "Mysterious energy remains in your wounds, suppressing the self-healing ability of your flesh, blood, and bones.

I can't handle this here.

You need to go to the workshop."

in this world.

There are two ways to heal a wizard's wound.

One is to find an alchemist who is proficient in potions.

The second is to find a suture technician with a stable reputation and who is proficient in anatomy and human body modification.

The first method is expensive and the treatment process is long, but it has no side effects.

The second method is relatively cheap, but has greater side effects and is extremely demanding on the mental state of the suture technician sought by the injured person.

There aren't many wizards who specialize in the realm of life and death.

Most of them are weirdos.

Therefore, when most wizards are injured, they will choose to spend a lot of money to find an alchemist for treatment rather than a suturing technician.

The criminal wizard Amiya is herself a suture master who is proficient in anatomy.

Only those who know know the depth of it.

The two walked all the way to the alchemy workshop that Vic had set up deep underground. The lights were pale and the room was silent.

test tube.

Bottle rack.

Crucible.

The utensils are varied and very complete.

Vic directed Anna to sit on the workbench where he used to mix potions.

The latter took a look at the layout of the workshop, took off his robe, looked envious, and said with a smile, "As expected of an alchemist, the cost of setting up this workshop is really high.

Enough for me to furnish ten rooms.”
