Home of the Brave

"Boss, are you sure you really want to go in? The name here is a natural offense against us?"

"Nonsense! Do you think I want to go in? But looking around the whole town, isn't it the only item shop?"

"That's right. Boss, show your energy, how can our'True Brave Group" lose to the mere name of the store!"

"Well, say... that's right. Then... did you go in?"

…As the discussion from outside the door came to an end, the door of the item shop was pushed open very hard, and three adventurers in cheap leather armor walked in a row.

"Welcome! What can I do for you?" Dai Yang greeted him with a standard and business smile.

"Are you the boss here?"

The leader was a big man with a big sword on his back. He glared hard at Dai Yang and hugged his name in a roaring voice.

"Listen! We are the future trump card adventure group'True Brave Group'! I am the boss Ed!"

"I'm the second child, Xia De. Remember this name that will become a legend of heroes!"

The thick-lined man with a spear behind him also raised his chest and reported his name.

"Well, I'm the third child, Hurd."

The last one is a thin and tall man with a long bow. His aura is obviously weaker than the previous two.

Dai Yang blinked his eyes and summed up the information he had just heard in his heart—the three people in front of him were an adventurous group that claimed to be the "True Brave Group". The second child, Hart, the third child who made the bow. The weapon match is very reasonable to cover the three levels of far, middle and near, but whether it is the ridiculous name or the shabby dress, it is completely third-rate trash fish.

Dai Yang labelled them "the mob" in his heart, but the smile on his face became brighter. According to past experience, compared to those experienced and savvy first-rate adventurers, the current mob is often easier to deal with. Dai Yang looked at the costumes of the "True Brave Group" while in his heart he estimated that he could squeeze the limit out of their wallet.

"Excuse me, is this the first time for the three of you to come to Lanlos Town?" Dai Yang asked with an earnest smile.

"...Is there a problem?" Boss Ed glared at him and asked.

"No, no, how could there be a problem? But the three of them will come to this place, and it really is to defeat the Silver Emperor Frost Snow, right?"

"Yes! We are here to crusade that evil dragon!" Boss Ed shook his fist vigorously, as if the Frost Snow Silver Emperor could be defeated by his momentum alone.

"Be happy, soon you will be liberated from the oppression of the dragon!" The second child Xia De said immediately.

"So, depending on our love for the liberation of the town, can it be cheaper?" The third oldest Hurd made a specific request.

"It's cheap? What's the problem?"

Dai Yang smiled brightly, picked up a bottle of potion from the shelf, and recommended to the true brave group: "Since the three are going to challenge the Dragon Nest, please recommend this antidote potion to you."

"...Antidote potion?" Boss Ed showed an expression of "What do we want this thing for?"

"This guest, you first came to Lanlos Town, don't you know the Frost Mountains?" Dai Yang's tone suddenly became solemn, and the true brave group's attention immediately focused on him.

"The silver emperor Frost Snow’s lair is located in the depths of the Frost Mountains. If you want to go there, you must first go through the Chengyue Forest. The Chengyue Forest is active in many monsters from slimes to ogres...like this The level of intelligence, I think the three probably already know it?"

Faced with Dai Yang's problem, the True Brave Group nodded unconsciously, unaware that they had fallen into the trap of the prop shop owner.

On the other hand, the black-haired young man who saw the prey caught caught the cunning light of a predator in his eyes.

"What I want to tell the three is that apart from the common monsters, Chengyue Forest also inhabits more dangerous things..."

"...Something more dangerous?"

"Yes, that is a kind of monster called'Scorching Butterfly'." Dai Yang said slowly.

"Eat... eat the rot butterfly?" The true brave group swallowed together.

"Well, because they always appear next to the corpse, they are called'Scattering Butterflies'." Dai Yang nodded and continued the introduction. "'Scatter-eating butterfly' only moves in the forest at night. It has poisonous thorns on its tail with corrosive and violent poison. Once stung by it, the whole body will quickly become red and swollen, and then pus will grow on the skin. Sores. If effective treatment is not available at this time, the abscesses will break within a day, and the flesh and blood of the human body will flow out with the pus, and only the bare bones will be left. It is really very miserable..."

"Hey, are you... joking?" Boss Ed interrupted Dai Yang, his voice trembling a little.

"No, the small ones are true. Because the pus after the corruption of flesh and blood is the favorite of ‘scorching butterflies’, they often make their own food like this." Dai Yang shrugged his shoulders and said. "If the three of you don’t believe it, you can take a walk in Chengyue Forest by yourself. You should be able to see a lot of leftover bones...Ah, by the way, I have to remind the three of you, if you encounter a bunch of black If the lacquered feather butterflies gather on the ground, it is best to leave immediately. If they interrupt their dinner, the consequences will be unthinkable..."

Dai Yang sighed and shook his head, without saying the rest. However, this appearance brought even greater fear from the True Brave Group. The three of you looked at me and I looked at you. In the end, the boss Eddard raised questions tremblingly. "Uh, since that...'Scorching Butterfly' is so terrifying, why have we never heard of it? You didn't make up it yourself, right?"

Facing the doubts of the true brave group, Dai Yang shook his fingers and made a "tsk tsk" sound. "Three, do you know? Whether logging or hunting, the residents of Lanlos Town have always only dared to move on the edge of Chengyue Forest. Even the most experienced hunters in the area dare not go deep into Chengyue Forest. , Why do you think this is?"

"Yes... is it because of the'Scorching Butterfly'?" The second child Xia De guessed with uncertainty.

"Yes. Because the'Scorching Butterfly' is a very terrifying monster, if it is bitten, it is almost impossible to save it by ordinary methods." Dai Yang showed the bottle of antidote again. "In fact, only the elves living in the Chengyue Forest know how to deal with the fierce poison of the'Scattering Butterflies', and the detoxification potion prepared by this positive genie is a special potion against the'Scattering Butterflies'. If you don't want to become the Chengyue Forest It’s recommended that the three of you should prepare a little bit of fertilizer and take it with you."

"This, how much is a bottle?" Hurd asked out in a panic.

"Well, the elves who live in Chengyue Forest rarely interact with other races. The store owner had helped them by the previous generation, so he made an exception to get these precious antidote potions. Besides, the three of you can't buy it anywhere else except the store." After making a long statement, Dai Yang reported the price with a smile. "Because the three are brave men who uphold justice and justice, so the small ones will be counted as cheap for you. A bottle of eighteen lien, I don't know what you want?"

"A bottle of Eighteen Lien?" Boss Ed blinked.

Originally, after listening to a large section of Dai Yang’s statement, he was mentally prepared to be slaughtered, but he did not expect that the price quoted by Dai Yang was unexpectedly conscientious.

"Yes, one bottle of eighteen lien." Dai Yang responded with a bright smile.

Disrupting the vigilance of the prey is the first step in trapping the prey. Cheap detoxification potions are just bait, and then it is time to feast on them.

"Are the three acting together? In this case, it is more appropriate for the three to prepare more for the small suggestion. After all, one bottle is only enough for one person. If there are more than two injured people, it will be difficult to deal with."

"Well, that's right..."

"By the way, if you buy three bottles of detoxification potion together, the small one will give you a discount, which is fifty lien."

"Really...really? That's great!"

"By the way, the store also prepares free gifts for guests!"

"Oh! Are there any gifts?"

"Yes, this is it." Dai Yang took a set of scrolls from the top of the container and introduced them to the three of them. "This is a map from Lanlos Town to the Dragon’s Nest elaborately made by my shop. It shows the areas where the monsters are infested, suitable camping locations, and the terrain around the Dragon’s Nest. For everyone who is ready to challenge the Dragon’s Nest It should be a very useful thing, right?"

"Useful! It's so useful!" Boss Ed asked incredulously. "That, is it really free?"

"Of course." Dai Yang nodded in affirmation. "As long as you spend two hundred lien in the store, you can get such a convenient map for free."

"Huh? Two hundred lien?"

Two hundred lien is not a small amount. The youngest Hurd looked at Dai Yang with a startled expression, but the latter did not give him a chance to express his opinion.

"In fact, in addition to this kind of detoxification potion, there are many good things that are both easy to use and cheap in the store. The three might as well choose them slowly." Dai Yang showed the eyes of the true brave group to the nearby container without a trace. "After all, the three objects to be challenged are Silver Emperor Frost and Snow’s Silver Dragon. Even if the preparations are done adequately... Ah, actually speaking again, if you can successfully break into the dragon’s nest, the baby inside. Picking one out will be enough for ordinary people to live a lifetime without worry. In comparison, this small amount of money is nothing at all, right?"

"Say...that's right, to challenge the dragon is to be fully prepared."

"Yes, boss. Anyway, we have to buy three bottles of detoxification potion. Let's pick the rest, shall we?"

The trio of the true brave group wandered in front of the container in the prop store like hypnotism, and the dark-haired youth next to them stirred up demonic lips and tongue, persuading them to throw one piece of expensive goods into their shopping pockets—the scene fell behind. In the eyes of the tavern owner, Sean couldn't help shaking his head, expressing heartfelt sympathy for the wallets of the unfortunate.
