Chapter 78: The Big Disaster
"Gray garlic?"
"Well, gray garlic is a kind of garlic that grows in places where the undead gather, relying on dead flesh and dead air as nutrients.
However, it is very special. It can only be picked at night. It cannot be found during the day. Even if it is found and picked, it will not have the effect of covering up the vitality.
I heard that the method of knowing how to pick gray garlic during the day has almost been lost."
Mu Bai recalled the information provided by the Magic Association and explained it one by one.
"So, the general way to get gray garlic is to break into the place where the undead gather at night and pick it?" Zhang Chenran asked.
Mu Bai nodded:
"Because the method of picking is extremely harsh, let alone whether it can be found, because the place where gray garlic appears is not only full of undead, but also zombies.
If the number of gray garlic is more than ten, then there must be zombies!"
"The difficulty of obtaining this is no different from going through the gates of hell. The Magic Association plans to mass-produce potions with gray garlic as the main ingredient?" Zhang Chenran was still a little puzzled.
"No, it seems that they just want to make a batch of potions to avoid the undead. The pharmacists in the association have also tried to use other medicinal materials to replace the gray garlic to make potions.
But the gray garlic is too special, and there are almost no alternative medicinal materials. As for this batch of potions, it seems that it is just what a certain senior executive of the association wants.
In order to obtain the gray garlic to make potions, the senior executive also issued a commission in the association and the Hunter Alliance. Now the commission amount has reached 20 million!" Mu Bai explained.
"20 million!" Zhang Chenran was shocked.
A commission of 20 million, how many subsequent hunter points would be settled?
This seems to have reached the level of A-level commission tasks, right?
"When was this commission issued? Is there any that are about to be completed?" Zhang Chenran suddenly had an idea.
"It was issued three days ago, and the number of gray garlics required is 50. I guess everyone is recruiting people. Even if the action is taken, it will take at least ten days and half a month to complete the number of gray garlics required by the commission."
Seeing his appearance, Mu Bai couldn't help asking: "You don't want to accept this commission?"
"Of course!" Zhang Chenran did not deny it.
If this commission is completed, he should not be far from being a hunter master.
The small commissions issued daily in the ancient capital were too easy for him, and the hunter points increased little.
He didn't expect to encounter such a big job just after returning from the demon capital.
"If there are extra gray garlic, bring it back for you to study." Zhang Chenran said as he was about to turn around and leave.
"Wait!"
Mu Bai called him and took out a tube of potion from the experimental device and handed it to him:
"This is a potion that can resist corpse poison."
Under normal circumstances, Zhang Chenran would definitely thank him.
But thinking that Mu Bai had not yet obtained the pharmacist certificate, he looked at the potion that had just been prepared and taken out of the device.
Zhang Chenran asked with a bit of doubt on his face:
"Is your potion reliable?"
Mu Bai, who handed over the potion, subconsciously glanced to the upper left corner, and his confidence was slightly lacking:
"Should it be?"
"."
... ...
On the road in the northern part of the ancient capital.
Many mages from various forces gathered on the endless city wall road.
There were no fewer mages at this time of evening than at night.
In order to gain more resources from the forces, many weaker mages would come to the city wall in advance to stand on duty.
Zhang Chenran reached into his pocket and put the badge of the Hunter Alliance on his chest. Now his shadow-class hunter mage badge has two dark lines, indicating that his cultivation is the second level of the shadow-class intermediate.
In addition to the badge of the Hunter Union, the magic school, the magic association, and the guardian mage all have corresponding mage badges.
Whether it is to complete a task or to offer a bounty, the team is very important.
In order to distinguish the level and department at a glance, the magic association stipulates that mages will wear the mage badge on their chests.
This also allows the judge to determine whether the place you are in is safe.
"My friend, our team is just short of a shadow mage. The reward for this mission is." A mage wearing the badge of the magic association stepped forward and said.
There are many teams that recruit people temporarily. Most of them choose to cram at the last minute because the lineup lacks a mage in a certain position.
The usefulness of wearing a mage badge is also reflected.
If there is no team and you want to find a team, wear the mage badge and stand on the city wall road, and soon a team will come to you.
Of course, the premise is that your cultivation and magic system can be appreciated by the other party.
"Sorry, I have a team." Zhang Chenran politely refused.
Without waiting for the other party to answer, he jumped off the wall and turned into darkness to shuttle into the wasteland in the distance.
The rejected member of the Magic Association looked at the direction he left and twitched his mouth.
He used his team as a reason to refuse, but he jumped out. Isn't this treating him as a fool?
However, what he didn't know was that the team Zhang Chenran was talking about was not his teammates.
It was a shadow army that was enough to rival half a tribe.
...…
After traveling for about ten kilometers, a black ghost fog blocked his way forward.
"What is that?"
Zhang Chenran appeared on the wasteland, looking at the black ghost fog in front of him with puzzled eyes.
After feeling something strange, Zhang Chenran's attention was not on the ghost fog, but looked up at the night above.
Above the ghost fog, an evil ghost with sharp black wings and covered with gray hair kept flapping its sharp wings. The
black ghost fog in front of him was fanned out by its wings. The ghost fog has a similar suppression to the field.
However, compared with Shahua's shadow field, this black fog field is simply too weak.
Seeing this general-level undead that looked like a bat ghost, Zhang Chenran's eyes lit up.
"The great evil ghost, usually only hides in the sky at night, has the ability to fly and is agile, and the hidden hooks on the fingertips can hook out the blood and brain of a person."
Zhang Chenran recalled the information about the undead that he learned from the Magic Association, and the undead that matched this one was the great evil ghost.
The aura of this great evil ghost is at the level of a great general. It was ambushed here in advance, probably to wait until he stepped into the ghost fog before hunting it.
In order to find Hui Garlic, he didn't sense this great evil ghost at the first time, and Zhang Chenran was surprised by this.
This kind of undead is a rare species, and he has been in the ancient capital for so long before he encountered it for the first time.
But think about it, with the shadow army he summoned, even if the great evil ghost appeared and hid in the dark, he would have been scared away long ago.
Zhang Chenran was about to take action, but after thinking about it, he chose to expand the shadow behind him.
In the shadow, a three-meter-tall humanoid shadow demon suddenly jumped out.
The moment it came out, its spiritual aura instantly overwhelmed the ghost fog released by the big evil ghost.
The shadow demon that appeared was the demon soul armor ant whose soul reached the commander level!
In the dark sky, the bat evil ghost and the human-shaped demon ant looked at each other from a distance.
Zhang Chenran looked at the demon soul armor ant in the sky:
"Play with it more, let me see how strong it is."
