Chapter 29: Rocky Veritaserum
"Who do you care who I am? Answer my question, why are you, a wanted criminal, here?"
Luo Chen asked directly.
The man opposite sneered and was about to mock him.
"I came here because I discovered that there might be a fire spirit seed here, and I want to get this spirit seed before other mages react!"
!!!
what's the situation!
The man opposite him widened his eyes in shock and looked at him in disbelief. He actually answered his question involuntarily?
"how did you do it?"
Tang Yue was also staring at everything in front of her in amazement, feeling that what had just happened was so unbelievable.
“Lo’s Veritaserum, although it has little effect on high-level mages, it is extremely effective against high-level and lower-level mages who do not have a psychic system and whose mental power is not strong!
How is it, the effect is good, right? "
Luo Chen raised his face with some pride and said.
"You invented it? Not bad. Where did you study pharmacy? Can you give me some?"
Tang Yue looked at Luo Chen with joy and inquiry in her eyes.
Luo Chen smiled but said nothing.
This potion was naturally not invented by Luo Chen, but was a gadget invented by Uncle Hui by accident.
This thing is different from the holy water. The cost of this potion is approximately zero. Uncle Hui has even built a production line.
Luo Chen looked at Tang Yue's charming eyes that were almost dripping with water, and rejected her righteously:
"Even brothers have to settle accounts, let alone our former teacher-student relationship. Moreover, the effect of my potion is so good, so it must have cost a lot of money!"
Hearing Luo Chen's response, Tang Yue glanced at Luo Chen with resentment, and the charm between her eyebrows made Luo Chen's heart tremble.
"But...it's not impossible to sell..."
"Really?"
Tang Yue asked back in surprise.
The Inquisition in this magical world, China, actually acts as the police, specifically handling cases involving magicians that ordinary people cannot handle.
For those extremely vicious magicians, ordinary interrogation methods are completely ineffective. Many times, due to insufficient evidence or because the civilians are afraid of retaliation from the magicians, these cases are eventually left unresolved.
But if we have this potion, the situation will be completely different. Many cases that lack evidence can be solved very quickly! Many magicians who have escaped will no longer have a chance to escape the law!
Therefore, Tang Yue cares so much about Luo Chen's medicine.
Luo Chen also wanted to deal with the Inquisition, so he deliberately exposed the existence of the potion in front of Tang Yue.
"Sure, 20 each!"
Luo Chen proposed a price of 20, naturally he had his own considerations.
For ordinary people, 20 yuan for a dose of truth serum is simply a sky-high price, but for an Inquisition mage with at least mid-level strength, 20 yuan is really not a lot.
Just a set of magic calligraphy costs fifty thousand, not to mention the other training expenses!
As for why the price was not set higher, it was because it was too high and the court could not afford it.
The national inquisition has to deal with at least hundreds of cases involving magicians every day, and sometimes even thousands of cases, most of which are related to low- and mid-level wizards.
In a year, there are at least tens of thousands of cases involving low- and mid-level magicians. With such a huge number, if the price is set too high, the negotiation may fail.
But if the deal is successful, it means that Luo Chen can earn tens of millions every day, which is equivalent to one spirit seed a day.
Although it is not as big as the sudden wealth from buying life potions before, this wealth is real and visible, the kind that can last for a long time.
"...I need to ask the higher-ups of the Trial Council. Can I bring a sample?" Tang Yue said after a moment of silence.
"Of course," Luo Chen took out a small potion sample from his space ring and handed it to Tang Yue.
“To show my sincerity in cooperation, I can tell the trial how to build the second half of the secret recipe production line.
The Inquisition can use its own human, material and financial resources to build the second half of the assembly line, and then buy cheaper core potions from me at only 10 per drop.
One drop of core potion can make a truth serum potion, which saves me from providing thousands of potions to the Inquisition every day.
I believe the Inquisition will agree to this deal!"
Luo Chen replied with a smile.
Tang Yue also nodded affirmatively.
A core potion that costs 10 is really pitifully cheap for the Inquisition, which consists of at least mid-level mages.
The price is about the same as two magic calligraphy books. Most members of the Inquisition would not care about this price.
Tang Yue had already made up her mind. When she got back, she would tell her uncle who was the chief judge of the Lingyin Tribunal and ask him to inform the chief judge.
"Okay, now that we've finished discussing the serious matters, it's time to deal with the trivial matters!"
Luo Chen looked at the man who was still doubting his life and asked calmly:
"Tell me, based on the information you know, where is the approximate location of the spirit seed? How many people know this information?"
………………
On the hill not far from Xishui Town Reservoir
Luo Chen looked at Tang Yue who was following beside him and couldn't help but reveal a helpless expression.
"I say, Tang Yue, why did you come here? Didn't you entrust this matter to me? Or do you care about me so much?"
Tang Yue glanced at Luo Chen with all her charm.
"I'm not worried about you. I'm just afraid that no one will come to collect your body. The opponent is a whole team of hunters. I don't want you to die before your cooperation with the Inquisition even begins!"
Tang Yue, who has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, complained.
Luo Chen looked at the arrogant Tang Yue and smiled helplessly.
Luo Chen was not short of this spirit seed. Among his previous waves of wealth, he had a lot of fire spirit seeds.
Not to mention, he hasn't contracted Little Sun yet, and doesn't have a fire element yet. Even if he gets a fire element spirit seed, he can't even feed it to Little Sun as a snack...
But after all, it is a spiritual seed, and it would be nice to sell it for some money.
After all, the many resources that Luo Chen exchanged for the life potion are basically properties that cannot be exchanged for money.
As for spiritual seeds, I am afraid that the moment they enter the market again, Luo Chen’s true identity will be discovered by the bigwigs who participated in the auction.
Therefore, Luo Chen did not actually have much cash on hand, but he had this consideration when joining the Qingtian Hunting House and wanting to reach a deal with the Judgment Council.
"Okay, here we are."
Luo Chen stopped and looked at the dried-up reservoir in front of him, shaking his head.
"That team of hunters hasn't arrived yet? That would save us the trouble!"
"stop!"
Just when Luo Chen was about to take the spirit seed and leave, a loud shout suddenly rang out.
Immediately afterwards, a fierce punch came directly towards Luo Chen!
