Game: I'm a Hunter in the Blood Curse World

"Hi! Dear customer, your two bottles of special blood essence can be customized. You can choose between two packages: 888 or 8888 Blood Curse Coins."

Before Fan En could react, he saw that the "shady businessman" had sent him a message.

Faced with such familiar hometown language, Fan En smiled faintly and asked:

"What's the difference?"

"Hello, 888 is a regular pharmacist with rough skills, and the delivery time is 7 days. They may withhold some materials from your order. 8888, on the other hand, is made by a beautiful female pharmacist, and the product is shipped in 3 days. She will also be your personal pharmacist long-term, solving any problems you may have!"

"Are there any discounts?" Fan En thought 8888 was a bit expensive.

"Hello, dear customer! We're a small business, so we don't offer bargaining!"

Fan En scratched his head. He could raise the 8888 if he sold his belongings, but something felt off.

Because this conversation was clearly different in tone from the previous friend request.

Just as he hesitated, the name of the BBB Pharmacy Wholesaler suddenly turned gray, then flashed a few times before changing to "[Dr. Chen (If it changes to the BBB Pharmacy Wholesaler, please ignore it)]".

"?"

Fan En was a little confused; how could this have happened!

"Hello, my sister was just joking."

I've taken another look at your two bottles of special blood essence; they're from a very special monster. If you want to sell them, I'll offer 10000 Cursed Blood Coins. If you need them made into potions, we can discuss your ideas.

Fan En's expression relaxed: "That's more like it, just like the tone in the friend request. But is this Dr. Chen's sister the AAA pharmaceutical wholesaler? She certainly has the advantage of being in close proximity!"

After careful consideration, Van En replied:

"I'm not short of money. I want to turn these two bottles of purified blood into a potion that can increase combat power. What are your thoughts?"

"The green ones can be made into speed potions and agility potions. The former is expected to increase your speed by 30%, which is very useful for both combat and escape."

Your class should be Hunter. The second Agility Potion should give you a temporary 5-point Agility boost, which will be very useful. If you're skilled in Parry, you can increase your Parry chance by at least 10%.

The red ones are only suitable for making healing potions and strength potions, with effects similar to agility potions. If your current beastification disease is under control, I suggest making it into a potent beast blood pill. This stuff has significant side effects, increasing beastification value by 5 points, but it can at least increase temporary strength by 15 points, making it the best choice when encountering powerful enemies.

In addition, the pharmaceutical reaction vessel has a special feature: the entire bottle of blood essence must be extracted at once, otherwise the effect will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, for each type of blood essence, you can only choose one processing method.

Dr. Chen typed quickly and in large quantities, clearly indicating that he had been pondering Fan En's two bottles of special blood essence during this time.

Seeing such a detailed explanation, Fan En developed a good impression of Dr. Chen.

He was a frequent visitor to hospitals in the first half of his life and had met many doctors. Although there were a few that were hard to evaluate, Fan En thought most of the doctors were very good.

After carefully reading Dr. Chen's words again, Fan En had made his choice:

"Hello, Dr. Chen, I choose Agility Potion and Potent Beast Blood Pill."

"Alright! Extracting the Beast Blood Pill is quite troublesome. I'll give you the Agility Potion in two days, and you'll be able to get the potent Beast Blood Pill in five days." Dr. Chen gave a precise timeframe, and then, without waiting for Fan En to ask about the 'price,' continued:

"Because the other ingredients for the potent beast blood pill are quite expensive, you can choose to pay 3000 cursed blood coins, or give me half of the agility potion."

Fan En recalled Dr. Chen's earlier mention of the hunter skill of "gun parrying" and pondered:

"I think they sell these in the mall, and they're not too expensive. Besides, Sir Franz's gun isn't suitable for practicing this, so I need to buy a new hunting rifle and bullets... I don't think I have enough money!"

After sighing, Van En could only reply helplessly:

"Pay with half of the agility potion."

"Okay, change the trade item for the two bottles of Blood Essence from Cursed Blood Coins to [Weaver's Golden Needle]. You can check the market for this item; it's very valuable. Consider it collateral and keep it with you."

"Okay! It's a pleasure to meet you."

Fan En could tell from the name "Weaver's Golden Needle" that this item was very special and must be very valuable, which made him trust Dr. Chen even more.

"It's been a pleasure doing business with you. I hope you don't end up using that potent beast blood pill. By the way... you'd better change your nickname when you have more money."

Dr. Chen's reply warmed Fan En's heart:

"Dr. Chen is really clever; he guessed that I needed the beast blood pills so I could fight desperately in a crucial moment."

"But I think my nickname is great, there's no need to change it! Changing it costs 5000 Cursed Blood Coins, it's simply not worth it."

After closing the private chat window, Fan En entered the trade window, removed the offers for two bottles of special blood essence, and placed the Weaver's Golden Needle as the trade request.

Snapped!

Soon, Dr. Chen completed the transaction, and Fan En received the Weaver's Golden Needle as collateral.

Van En took it out and found that it was not the kind of "needle" he had imagined at all.

So I examined it carefully:

The gold needle is very long, over 1.6 meters, and its shape is very strange, more like a weapon shaped like a spear, but it seems a bit short to a person.

Its luster is dazzling, with a faint purple glow, and it is very hard, like some kind of alloy.

The needle also has fine diamond patterns, which must have been formed through a special forging method.

The slender, hexagonal needle tip is 40 centimeters long and is integrated with the needle body. It is extremely sharp and could even be used as a sword.

If it weren't for the thumb-sized puncture hole at the end of the needle, Fan En would definitely have thought Dr. Chen had taken the wrong thing.

"That's really amazing. There are such weapons in the Blood Mist World. I wonder what race or human profession they are used by... Hmm, it seems that doctors also use needles."

Out of curiosity, Van En read the information about the [Weaver's Golden Needle]:

This item information has been locked by player Chen Zhihe; you do not have permission to view it.

"How could that be possible? Dr. Chen is truly unfathomable!"

The amazing weapon, coupled with the ability to block information, made Fan En respect Dr. Chen more, and he felt that Dr. Chen must be very powerful.

"Perhaps... being a pharmacist is just a side job for Dr. Chen? We could try inviting him to join the 'Mystery of Lu Ting' instance."

Fan En shook his head and put the [Weaver's Golden Needle] into his inventory. Although he didn't know the specific uses of this weapon, its sharpness alone made it worth using.

Of course, it should be kept safe, after all, this thing represents the beginning of his friendship with Dr. Chen.

Turning his attention back to the trade section, Fan En glanced at the three Poison Daggers he had listed last time and found that only the one priced at 1500 had sold. The remaining two had many comments requesting price reductions.

Van En looked at the messages left by these buyers and found that they were all left by players like the Stalker.

After confirming the authenticity, Fan En proactively contacted the player who had previously purchased the 1500 daggers, added him as a friend, and sold him the remaining two Poison Daggers for 2800.

It wasn't that Van En was kind-hearted; it was mainly because he realized he needed to get to know some reliable players. This rogue player seemed very sincere, and Van En was willing to give him some benefits to build a good relationship. Maybe he could even get involved in the Deer Court mystery.

Sure enough, Van's kindness paid off. The rogue player, nicknamed "I'll Steal Your Underpants When You're Asleep," sent Van a message after obtaining the Poison Dagger:

"When he gets crazy, he'll even stab himself... Fine, I'll call you Crazy Bro from now on! Do you want a hunting rifle? I have one I don't have here."
