A Game for Everyone: God-Level Talent is Achieved Through Rolling In.

Having not played Wizarding for many years, he was unaware that his expression had not escaped Nie Wan's notice.

Nie Wan was no stranger to this kind of expression.

In her past life, Shao Wenjun had been watching her with this kind of gaze, both openly and secretly, for a long time.

It was precisely because of her extraordinary insensitivity that she never realized that the better she treated Shao Wenjun, the more Shao Wenjun hated her.

Perhaps her parents had cast too thick a filter on her, and she simply couldn't believe that Shao Wenjun was just a simple, shallow, and greedy hyena.

But there are such ungrateful people in this world, and you can't reason with them. You can only accept your bad luck.

When Nie Wan returned, she saw that the person who hadn't played Wizarding for many years had posted several accusations on the world channel.

She accused Nie Wan of scheming against her, or accused Hua Tang and Chun Xiao of being opportunistic and abandoning their old acquaintance, him, in order to curry favor with someone more skilled.

The implication was that they had stolen the necklace from him and that it should be returned to him.

But hardly anyone paid any attention to that.

Regardless of where the necklace came from, if it can be put up for sale, they might get their hands on it.

Of course, the most important thing is to get good things into your own hands.

No one paid any attention to him. He hadn't played The Witcher for years and was furious. He felt increasingly stifled in the game, but he couldn't log off and could only suffer in silence.

At this moment, he was hidden in the crowd, looking at Huatang Chunxiao who was surrounded by layers of people, his eyes filled with hatred that could almost spit fire, but he was helpless.

Seeing that he couldn't make any waves, Nie Wan turned around and left to do the task she wanted first.

Nie Wan bypassed the areas with many players and returned to the dilapidated temple. She found the little beggar and asked him directly, "Do you know a crazy old pharmacist?"

"I know him..." the little beggar hesitated, "but why are you looking for him?"

"If you need his help with something, he can show you the way, and this silver coin is yours."

Nie Wan took out five taels of silver.

The little beggar's eyes widened in amazement.

He snatched the silver and nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

"Come with me, come with me!"

He led Nie Wan out through another crack in the wall of the dilapidated temple and walked for about five minutes along the crooked, tree-lined path.

Under an old pine tree ahead, there was an old drunkard with tattered clothes, gray hair, and a red face and nose.

"That's him. Although he can make medicine powder, it's not very useful. Don't blame me if you can't find something you like!"

The little beggar led the person there, then immediately slipped away.

Nie Wan walked towards the old drunkard without hesitation, nudged him a few times, and said, "Senior, I heard that you are a pharmacist, so you must know many uncommon herbs. These are some strange herbs that I picked in the countryside. Please help me identify them."

The old drunkard initially didn't want to pay attention, but the moment Nie Wan took out the hallucinogenic flower, his nose twitched a few times, and he immediately opened his eyes, his hawk-like gaze falling on the hallucinogenic flower in her hand.

He suddenly stood up and snatched the psychedelic flower.

"Where did you find this?"

"It was picked from the sea of ​​flowers outside the valley. Senior, do you know what it is?"

"This...this is the hallucinogenic flower! The hallucinogenic flower...that's right, that's right...Ah Luan and the children must have eaten it, which is why they fell into a dream and trapped themselves to death!"

The old drunkard became more and more excited as he spoke, stuffing the psychedelic flower into his mouth and laughing loudly with tears streaming down his face as he chewed.

Nie Wan watched his movements quietly.

After venting his frustrations, the old drunkard recounted his story, albeit in fits and starts.

It is said that he used to be a killer in the shadows, but later grew tired of the life of killing, retired from the profession, married, and had children.

Because he was an assassin, he was highly skilled in various assassination and poisoning methods, so he always guarded against his former enemies and protected the safety of his wife and children.

But even the wisest person can make a mistake.

Ultimately, someone took advantage of the psychedelic flower, which he knew nothing about, to kill his wife and children.

Over the years, he searched through medical classics and finally guessed that his wife and children might have died from hallucinogenic flowers.

But no matter how hard they searched, they could not find this herb.

Unable to verify his thoughts, he could only drown his sorrows in alcohol.

It wasn't until Nie Wan handed the hallucinogenic flower to him that he felt the effects of the drug and confirmed his guess.

After he finished speaking, he gradually calmed down and looked at Nie Wan.

"Thank you very much. If you hadn't brought this hallucinogenic flower to me, I would still not know the truth about A-Luan and the children's deaths... I have been wandering the martial world for decades and have nothing left from my past, except for this. It was something I carried with me when I was an assassin. I'm giving it to you as a token of my gratitude."

As he spoke, he took out a small cloth bag and handed it to Nie Wan.

Congratulations on completing the "Past Events Like Smoke" quest! You have obtained a Human Skin Mask (Normal) x1

"Thank you, senior."

Nie Wan thanked her, accepted the gift, and put it into her backpack. She then said, "I have another favor to ask."

"You said."

"I am a female healer. I smell a faint medicinal fragrance on you, senior. I suppose you must be a pharmacist. May I learn how to make medicine from you?"

"Pharmacist?"

The old drunkard gave a desolate laugh: "What kind of pharmacist am I! In my whole life, I only know how to kill, I have no idea how to save people!"

"However, it's a good thing that you're willing to learn medicine making. I've had this medicine book for over ten years, and I've studied it for over ten years. But the problem is that poisons can be made in one go, while medicines that can save lives are impossible to concoct properly no matter what I do... If you want to learn medicine making, I'll give it to you."

Congratulations! You have obtained "Pharmacopoeia" (Crude) x1

Nie Wan put the book into her backpack and continued, "Thank you for your gift, senior. From what you've said, it seems you have quite a bit of drug powder. Could you sell me some? To be honest, I'm weak and often live in fear when I'm out and about. I desperately need some drug powder for protection. If you're willing to sell, I'll definitely buy it back at ten times the market price."

The old drunkard chuckled: "No need to be so polite. The little girl has helped me a lot, how could I not repay her! The poison powder I have... that's all. Just give me three or five copper coins so I can buy some wine to drink today!"

Congratulations! You have obtained 23 Blood Fusion Powder (Normal)

Nie Wan glanced at it and saw that this poison powder could reduce the monster's health by 50 to 90 per second for 5 minutes.

In the early stages, it's definitely a powerful tool for taking down bosses.

She still left ten taels of silver, saying that these things were very precious and she couldn't take advantage of her senior for nothing. This made the old drunkard's favorability increase by thirty points before she left with a backpack full of her spoils.

That's part of what makes this game fun.

The task is the same, but the reward is not fixed.

As long as you figure out the NPC's temperament, raise their favorability, and are thick-skinned enough to think the NPC is quite tolerant, you can keep asking for things.

If you use the right approach, you can really find a lot of good stuff that isn't in your task list.

Nie Wan hadn't walked more than a few steps before she put on the human skin mask.
