Chapter 398: The Fisherman Will Never Leave Empty
"Giant Swamp Crocodile Teeth, Tree Guarding Gong Pot Nail, not the pinky nail, two scales from the siren's neck, five exploding beetles, only the adult ones..."
Mo Cheng silently counted the materials in his hand. Napa Port was indeed a famous shipping port in the Kingdom of Bezeko. There were a wide variety of goods and materials here, and even the materials Dorothy needed could be easily obtained.
Although it cost a bit much, such a small thing cost him thousands of golden griffins, and because golden griffins were the coins of Aundair and could not be used directly, Mo Cheng had to find a special place to exchange them.
"One to 0.88, what a rip-off."
Mo Cheng weighed his wallet which was discounted by 18%, and thought to himself that he should not go to the official exchange office of the Kingdom of Bezeko. Going to those private exchanges could at least bring the exchange rate to 1:0.91.
Although there is a possibility of being robbed when seeking private exchange, Mo Cheng himself is not too worried about this aspect. It is good enough that he does not cheat others because of money. If a real fight breaks out, the one who gets richer will definitely not be anyone other than Mo Cheng.
Napa Harbor is a bustling city. People on the street are dressed much better than in other places.
A few days ago, Mo Cheng and his group secretly entered Napa Harbor. Although the pursuers who were hunting Dorothy were still hiding in the dark, Mo Cheng himself was also a master assassin of the Shadow Sect. His ability in tracking and counter-tracking was no worse than any other master assassin.
The death of the delegation, the assassination of the city lord, and those mysterious assassins, the whole incident is confusing, and Mo Cheng has no choice but to find a way to come to Napa Port to investigate.
He had no particular interest in the truth behind the incident, but Mo Cheng had countless thoughts about the guy who killed the entire delegation and almost caused his mission to fail.
Mo Cheng felt that he was not a generous person, especially after the good mission was ruined in this way. He knew that if he couldn't catch the group of pursuers and the people behind the scenes, he was afraid that he would not be able to sleep at night.
Mo Cheng, who was walking on the street, paused for a moment, then continued to move forward very naturally, but his direction changed from going back to reunite with Dorothy to another place.
Mo Cheng was walking as if nothing had happened, and when he passed by a remote alley, he suddenly walked into it.
The people who had been following Mo Cheng along the way hurriedly caught up, and in just a blink of an eye, they lost any trace of Mo Cheng.
The person who was following him was startled and immediately realized that he had been discovered. "Go, I..."
Before they could finish their words, an arm suddenly stretched out from the air, grabbed the necks of the two people who had been following behind them, and pressed them hard against the wall.
"Gera!"
With two crisp sounds, the heads of the two trackers were turned 180 degrees, and they were able to see their backs.
It is impossible to survive under such conditions.
Mo Cheng quickly searched the two people, but found nothing. The two people were very clean, without any evidence of their identities. At the same time, he opened the mouth of the corpse and put his finger in to touch. He felt a back tooth that felt different from the other teeth.
I pulled out the back molar and looked at it carefully in the sunlight.
"The middle of the teeth is hollowed out and has a mechanism. Once the poison sac inside is crushed, it will burst. It is a [safety tool] for organized assassins."
Mo Cheng breathed a sigh of relief when he confirmed that the other party was related to the trackers who were hunting Dorothy, and even that these two people were one of them.
When he realized he was being followed, he was worried that he would be targeted by some gangsters because he had revealed his wealth.
These two guys were related to the pursuers, which made Mo Cheng immediately certain that he had found the right direction. There must be clues to be found inside the City Lord's Mansion of Napa Port.
"It's worth it that I went to several places and asked for materials openly."
A lot of materials are needed to lift the curse on Dorothy. In order to lure the snake out of its hole, Mo Cheng directly took the note with the materials on it and asked around for the materials.
His idea was simple. The pursuers would never let go of the only person in the delegation alive, so they would definitely keep an eye on the materials in the market that could lift the curse.
When there is someone who openly collects relevant materials and the types of materials are exactly the same, those who are chasing him will definitely come to investigate.
After reducing the two bodies to ashes with the element of fire, Mo Cheng changed his form several times and reappeared on the street, returning to the hotel where he and Dorothy were staying.
According to the code word agreed upon before, after knocking on the door three times, long and three times short, a voice saying "Come in" came from inside.
"Just order the quantity and type of things you want, okay?"
Mo Cheng put the package of materials on the table, opened the window and observed the surroundings secretly, "Did you find anything wrong?"
"I don't dare open the window to look out in my current state. To be honest, even someone walking by the door is enough to make me nervous."
Dorothy rolled her eyes as she counted the materials. The magic power in her body was suppressed by the mixed curse. At the same time, the star wizard was half useless during the day. The combination of these two unfavorable conditions made the head of the star department feel uncomfortable for a long time.
"The materials and quantities are correct. All I have to do next is refine it into a potion. I can lift the curse by this afternoon at the earliest."
"You're going to make a potion here?"
Mo Cheng looked around in surprise. Although this hotel was above average, it was still a hotel and not a laboratory of the Winterburg Magic Academy. Without professional equipment and venues, the difficulty of refining potions would increase several times.
"The potion to be made is not too difficult, and..." Dorothy raised her head proudly, "As a master of potions, a potion of this level does not require any professional equipment or venue."
Mo Cheng looked at Dorothy in surprise. He didn't expect that this Starry Sky Mage had taken a minor in Pharmacy. This was an absolute big spender. Did the Starry Sky Department have so much funding to support her in taking a minor in Pharmacy?
However, this question only went around in his mind twice, and he didn't ask it directly. Mo Cheng nodded, "In that case, let's take action tonight and go see what happened in the City Lord's Mansion."
Looking at the time, it was almost the agreed time. Before going out to buy materials, Mo Cheng asked Lilia to follow Isabella to inquire about the information about the City Lord's Mansion.
"Then I look forward to the night."
Being poisoned, imprisoned, cursed, and even hunted down, even a clay man would get angry after seeing this series of events, let alone Dorothy.
Her thoughts now were very similar to Mo Cheng's, to find the guy behind the trouble and make him understand what the mage's anger was .
