Heir to the Kingdom of 1.4 billion people

Chapter 114 Hunting Potion
Storm Church, reception room.

After learning that Berg had completed the extraordinary path in just two months, Bishop Rune simply turned around and went to the storage room.

When he returned to the living room, he had a wooden box in his hand.

"Your Highness, please open it and take a look." Bishop Rune raised his hand and gestured.

Xia Mingyu opened the wooden box, and inside were two bottles of medicine and a piece of straw paper.

In the first bottle of potion, a tiny cat's tail tip was quietly suspended in the light green liquid. The hair on the tip of the tail still maintained its soft luster, showing a gray and white pattern.

In the second bottle of potion, there was a snake body about two inches long, covered with brown prismatic scales. It still maintained the tense posture of attacking, with the white snake bones exposed at the cross section. Threads of snake blood like red coral were suspended in the transparent potion.

"Your Highness, if a hunter wishes to advance to Hunting Master, they must consume three more hunting potions at once. One of these potions is a cat tail potion made from the tip of a shadow cat's tail, which increases agility and balance."

"The other bottle is a viper potion made from copper-headed vipers, which can increase explosive power." Bishop Rune explained.

"However, as the number of hunters has gradually declined, the storage room here now only stores these two potions. Therefore, the other piece of paper contains the recipe for the bearskin potion, which Your Highness needs to make yourself." Rune added.

"Thank you very much, Your Excellency the Bishop." Xia Mingyu put away the box and handed it to Berg, then thanked him solemnly.

It's ok to just give the potion, but he even gave the formula. This bishop is really enthusiastic!

"That's fine. It's an honor for the Storm Church to be able to help you, Your Highness." Bishop Rune waved his hand.

"However, please do not disclose the formula for the bearskin potion. This is because once digested, the hunting potion can significantly enhance a person's physical fitness. It is a strategic secret. During the Dragon-Lion War, the Church created many crazy hunters in order to quickly increase its military strength."

As if he recalled some horrific scene, Rune said with lingering fear.

"I swear to the kingdom that raised me, I will not"

After promising the bishop that he would not reveal the potion formula, Xia Mingyu prepared to leave with Berg.

During this period, Bishop Rune also asked Berg whether he was willing to believe in the God of Storms and Hunting, but Berg refused without hesitation and claimed that Xia Mingyu was the only god he believed in. Although Bishop Rune felt regretful, he did not say much.

After all, if he had the opportunity to serve as a servant to the heir to a kingdom of 1.4 billion people, he might just take off his robes and kneel down.

After the door was closed again, the plump bishop was silent for a moment, and suddenly began to dance excitedly like a drunk panda.

"Oh, I'm the first missionary of the Storm Church in the East Continent!" He kept muttering to himself from time to time.

It was not until the door was gently knocked by the gatekeeper who came to report that he quickly regained his serious composure, holding the scripture with a noble attitude of compassion.

On the return carriage, Xia Mingyu looked through the recipe for the bearskin potion.

Almost all the materials were very common, and he could ensure that they could be easily found in the pharmacy in Twilight City. There was only one core material - the skin of the heart of a bear monster, and it could not be harvested more than a week ago.

In the "Warcraft Encyclopedia" he had read, it was mentioned that bear-type Warcraft were also superior among all Warcraft, and their combat power was at least above the Morning Star level.

This means that this material must be quite rare, which is perhaps why there are no ready-made bearskin potions in the Storm Church branch in Twilight City.

"Let's ask Madame Rosa."

When Xia Mingyu came up with this idea, he was suddenly stunned.

Because in his impression, the male protagonists of the fantasy novels he read on Blue Star were all fighting to the death for promotion resources.

As a result, after he traveled through time, he could just ask for whatever he needed, and someone would naturally deliver it to him.

This is so cool!
Xia Mingyu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and couldn't help but hold his stomach and laugh out loud in the carriage.

Red Fox Castle, living room.

The firewood in the fireplace was burning brightly, and the red flames illuminated the portrait on the wall that depicted the Knight Red Fire's last whispers before his death.

"The heart skin of bear-type monsters cannot be used for more than a week."

Rosa sat on the sofa, listening to Xia Mingyu's words, and a look of difficulty appeared on her weathered face.

"Your Highness, this rare material probably doesn't exist in the entire Twilight City. However, I remember there are ground bears in the South Wind Forest not too far from Twilight City. When Roy Roland and the others return, I can ask them to go hunt a ground bear for you."

Rosa thought for a moment and replied.

"Aren't Roy Roland and the others in the castle?" Xia Mingyu was stunned.

"Yesterday a messenger came asking for help. A powerful titled monster appeared in William's territory and has caused the deaths of many people."

"Only the Crescent Knight can barely deal with the titular beast, so to ensure that everything is safe, my two sons set out together in the middle of the night." Rosa explained.

Xia Mingyu, the titled Warcraft, couldn't help but think of the black-tailed beast that always wagged its tail and begged for mercy in front of him.

So, is it really that strong?
"Mrs. Rosa, there's no need to bother Roy and the others. I'll just take my servants to the South Wind Forest." Xia Mingyu said after thinking for a while.

William County is quite far from Twilight City. It will probably take half a month for Roy and the others to come back, and the hunting time will make it even longer.

He must seize every moment to increase the power he holds. Berg is his vital asset, and this developmental period cannot be wasted. "Your Highness, would you like me to arrange a team of extraordinary knights to protect you?" Rosa asked with concern.

"No, you seem to have forgotten that I am also a Morning Star."

Xia Mingyu smiled slightly and spread out his palm, and a black flame cloud rose in his palm.

This is the black magic power that belongs only to him and was awakened after he stepped into the Morning Star rank.

"In that case, I wish you a safe journey."

Rosa no longer insisted and gave her blessing in a gentle voice.

After leaving the living room and walking into the corridor, the smile on Xia Mingyu's face quickly disappeared. He looked at the knights sweating profusely in the castle training ground outside the window and couldn't help falling into deep thought.

The reason why he rejected Rosa's suggestion to provide the extraordinary knight guard was not only because of his confidence in his current strength, but also because
Without the two Crescent Knights on duty, the security level of Red Fox Castle and even Twilight City will undoubtedly drop significantly. If another team of extraordinary knights leaves, it will soon become an empty shell!
"Is it really a coincidence that this titled monster suddenly appeared in William's territory?"

Xia Mingyu couldn't help but feel a little worried. Was the King of Gluttony going to attack the Martha family again, just like he did to the Harvesters last time?
"Let's set off for South Wind Forest today. By then, we'll have two Morning Star fighters who can help Madam Rosa if a crisis occurs." He made the decision silently.

With the help of his butler, Ceris, Xia Mingyu quickly got the supplies and luggage needed for hunting.

Then he rode the tall black horse and left Red Fox Castle with Berg who rode a brown horse.

In order to speed up his journey, he gave up riding a carriage this time and chose to ride a horse instead.

Fortunately, during his time at Black Wolf Castle, he had learned to ride a horse under Karen's instruction. Although he was not yet as agile as a knight in fighting on horseback, he could definitely use it to travel.

Time passed quickly, and three whole days had passed in the blink of an eye.

noon.

The sun hung high in the cloudless sky, pouring its scorching rays onto the wilderness. The mountains in the distance were distorted in the heat waves, like a mirage.

Occasionally, a few vultures circled high in the sky, making shrill screams.

“It’s so hot”

Riding on the back of a black horse, Xia Mingyu tried to pull the black hat down as much as possible, but it couldn't hide the slight burning sensation on his skin from the sunlight.

After all, it's just a top hat, not a sun mask on the blue planet.

"Freeze, wind."

Xia Mingyu condensed black magic power at his fingertips, and drew two magic patterns in the air like writing an ink painting, and then released them in superposition.

Whoohoo!
A cool breeze blew, and Xia Mingyu squinted his eyes comfortably.

During the past few days of traveling, the bumps on the horse's back were not so bad, but he really couldn't stand the scorching sun. He even felt the torture he had during the military training in college.

Fortunately, he could rely on the unreasonable existence of magic to create cool air similar to that blown out by air conditioners to cool down from time to time, which made him deeply appreciate the happiness of being a wizard.

"Master, we'll soon reach the South Wind Forest. There will be shade from the trees, so it won't be as hot as it is now."

Berg, who was also riding on a horse, looked straight ahead and said.

With the blessing of Eagle Eyes, the limit of his vision is far higher than Xia Mingyu.

"Black Stone, charge!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Mingyu's face lit up with joy, and he slapped the black horse under him on its buttocks.

hiss!
The black horse let out a high-pitched neigh, a cloud of hot air blew out of its nostrils, and its front hooves were raised high. It suddenly burst out and galloped forward like a black lightning.

"Gallop on the horse!"

Feeling the whistling wind passing by his face and the green dots gradually appearing in the distance, Xia Mingyu couldn't help but laugh.

This black horse was given to him by Albert, the lord of the Iron Horse Territory. Because the black horse was indeed human-like and had a physique that could be called a hero among horses, he rode it all the time and named it Black Stone.

After some time, the two finally arrived at the Nanfeng Forest.

This is the largest forest in the entire southern region, rich in many rare medicinal herbs, and also home to many ferocious monsters.

Even the Martha family's exclusive mount, the Red Flame Fox, lives in the dense forest.

However, before leaving, Xia Mingyu heard the housekeeper Ceris mention that there have been bandits in the Nanfeng Forest recently and many people who went there to collect herbs and hunt have been killed, so he reminded him to be careful.

But Xia Mingyu really wanted to meet them.

After all, it was not easy to be promoted to Morning Star, it would be a shame not to use the new ability to kill a few villains to liven up the atmosphere!
