Wizard, I Have Another World – Chapter 48

Chapter 48: The Beginning

Knight,

The existence of ordinary people after life transition.

Once you become a knight, you will be completely free from ordinary diseases, and your lifespan will be extended to a certain extent.

It is rare to see elderly people over fifty years old in Signo City, and those who are are nobles and wealthy merchants who are good at maintaining their health.

It is difficult for ordinary people to live long.

Especially in an era where medicine and drugs are scarce, a cold or an infection can easily take one’s life.

And knights,

as long as they don’t die in battle, they can basically live to be over eighty years old, which is equivalent to decades longer than ordinary people.

To become a knight, Life Potion is essential.

It is extremely difficult to obtain Life Potion in Signo City. It requires not only strength but also a certain background. For a lone individual, figuring out the way to obtain it could take forever.

Currently, Karl has not seen any hope.

Now……

Just kill fierce beasts.

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools.

Even if you want to hunt fierce beasts and half-dead creatures, you must ensure your own safety, which is particularly important.

Karl went to the church early in the morning and took out ten gold pounds to offer to the Morning Sun to show his piety.

The reason he didn’t use gold coins is that ten gold pounds look heavier and more conspicuous than one gold coin.

“The Morning Sun is above…”

He said with a sad face:

“Father Vic, a friend of mine was unfortunately contaminated with Yin Energy while passing through a swamp. He is now bedridden. I heard that holy water can bestow God’s blessing and remove the Yin Energy from the body.”

“The benevolent Morning Sun will certainly not bear to see His faithful followers die in agony.”

“Dear Baron Karl.” Father Vic said with a compassionate face:

“God loves the world!”

“He certainly will not bear to see his followers suffer, but there are always false believers who try to deceive God’s blessings. God can discern the truth, but I do not have that ability.”

“So, how do you prove that your friend is not a false believer?”

“…” Karl opened his mouth and said helplessly:

“My friend’s piety to the Morning Sun is unquestionable. He is willing to offer one gold coin to improve the environment of the church.”

“One gold coin?”

Hearing this, Father Vic’s eyes lit up with a smile. He picked up a wooden spoon for dividing food from the side and went to the statue of God.

There is a water tank about one meter square in front of the statue.

He scooped up a spoonful of water.

“This is God’s blessing!”

Karl blinked. He learned from Sybil that the holy water of the Church can dispel Yin Energy and is even more effective against half-dead creatures, Yin spirits, and undead.

But he didn’t expect that the so-called holy water was just this water tank. If it’s so casual, wouldn’t there be as much as you want?

Of course.

He did not doubt Sybil’s words.

“Father.”

Looking at the wooden spoon that was less than a mouthful, Karl slowly said:

“My friend can offer ten gold coins.”

“Ten?” Father Vic’s eyes lit up, and he picked up a large bowl from the side and gestured:

“This is also God’s blessing.”

Karl rolled his eyes. Your God is so realistic!

With Laca Market as the center, several nearby blocks have been included in the protection range of the City Guard.

Being inside, there is no need to worry about safety.

But to enter, you must pay a certain amount of blackstone, or proof of killing fierce beasts or half-dead creatures.

Aya found a temporary base nearby.

Because they couldn’t buy Purple Wisteria, Little Nan’s situation is getting worse and worse. There are already initial signs of mutation. If he is not treated, he may be beyond help.

“Come.”

Karl helped Little Nan up and brought the holy water to him:

“Swallow carefully.”

“Gulp…”

Little Nan’s throat rolled, and he instinctively swallowed the holy water. Shortly after the holy water entered his stomach, his complexion improved.

It works!

Karl’s heart relaxed. It seems that holy water works in any world.

“That’s great.”

Aya was even more excited, with tears in her eyes:

“Little Nan is fine!”

“Yes.”

Karl nodded:

“He’s fine for now. Let’s talk about cooperation next.”

“Uncle, just tell us, we’ll follow your arrangements.” Aya waved her hand hastily.

“That won’t do.” Karl shook his head:

“You have six people and need to take most of the risks. You must have enough rewards.”

The people in the room are the core of Aya’s team.

Like Little Nan, Dana, Hausman…

✿✿✿

Each of them has lived in Black City for several years. They may not be strong, but each has their own means of survival and should not be underestimated.

“Like this.”

Karl said:

“As long as I participate in the operation, I will take 40% of the profits, and you will take 60%. When I am not there, you can discuss it among yourselves.”

“How about that?”

Aya’s eyes flickered.

The others looked at each other, and they all saw the intention in each other’s eyes.

“Okay!”

After a brief discussion among themselves, Aya nodded and said:

“Uncle, when are you going to start?”

“No hurry.”

Karl waved his hand:

“The situation in the city is still unclear. If we rush in rashly, we may encounter danger. Let others explore the way first.”

Those who do not have enough food will definitely be the first to break down.

“Also…”

Karl looked at Aya:

“At this time, all kinds of weapons and armor, anything that can increase one’s strength will increase in price.”

“You can ask how much Exotic Beast Meat my rune can be exchanged for.”

“Okay.”

Aya nodded heavily.

“Be careful when you talk, so as not to force anyone into a corner.” Karl instructed again.

In order to prevent people from paying but not contributing, the City Guard has prohibited private transactions during this period. Once discovered, they will be severely punished, and the informant will also receive a generous reward.

Of course.

This kind of thing will be reduced, but it will never be eradicated.

The next day.

Aya brought the news. The reason for such a quick reply is that things that increase strength are indeed in high demand.

“High-grade Exotic Beast Meat is very rare. Even the City Guard doesn’t have much. The other party will offer at most two portions.”

“In addition, they will add twenty portions of ordinary Exotic Beast Meat.”

“Two portions?” Karl’s eyes flickered.

Previously, there was only one portion, and there was no room for negotiation. The number of ordinary Exotic Beast Meat is easy to say.

“Agree to them!”

Karl said:

“Is there any problem with the transaction?”

“Absolutely no problem.” Aya guaranteed:

“This is the channel introduced by Old Lev. If there is really a problem, he will use his own rune to compensate.”

Runes have a preservation time limit. That afternoon, the two parties reached a deal, and Karl got a box of Exotic Beast Meat.

As for hunting fierce beasts…

He is still in no hurry.

A few more days passed.

Name: Karl （Lord of the Divine Domain Fragment ）

Constitution: 0.89

Mental Power: 1.51

Source Essence: 0

Occupation: Knight Squire, Junior Wizard Apprentice

The effect of High-grade Exotic Beast Meat is extremely amazing. Just taking one portion made Karl’s Constitution rapidly increase in a short period of time.

Reaching the peak of 0.9, the Knight Squire stage is just around the corner.

Mental Power is also steadily increasing.

At this time, the situation in the city has gradually become clear. Under the leadership of the City Guard, the people in the city began to counterattack. The generous rewards aroused everyone’s enthusiasm.

The fierce beasts and half-dead creatures near Laca Market have been cleared out.

“I heard that the City Lord bought a large number of slaves outside and is escorting them to Black City to fill the vacancy of miners.”

“In addition, he also hired mercenaries to come and kill the fierce beasts.”

Aya said:

“Once they arrive, it will not be so easy to hunt fierce beasts, and the exchange price will also increase.”

“Yes.”

Karl squatted opposite her and looked up when he heard this:

“It’s time for us to move too.”
