Zongman: Don't move, Aisi, your family still owes me money

"Once they know the effects of my almighty potion, they will no longer be able to tolerate ordinary potions."

"By then, I'll be able to reap a lot of benefits."

Merlin explained calmly.

"Ohhh, I see. As expected of the black-hearted Merlin-sama, he was decisive and calculating, very shrewd. He wasn't at all mesmerized by the beauty of those two."

Lily couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Lily, why do I feel like you're changing your ways and scolding me?"

"Well... who made Merlin, last night..."

Chapter 30: Items Beyond Rare?

After the two men left, Livilia's eyes fell on the bottle of golden potion on the table.

"That young man didn't even ask for money? What on earth is he planning?"

Livilia felt a trace of confusion and doubt in her heart.

Obviously, before this, the boy named Merlin gave her the impression of being a very shrewd businessman, a very calm person who would not be affected by fame or other things.

Well, if I have to say, I am somewhat similar to her.

However, this young man did not ask for money in the end. Instead, he gave her this bottle of priceless potion for free.

What is the reason for this?

But now the human boy named Merlin has left, so she can no longer ask for the reason.

"Livilia, this potion can..."

At this time, Ai Si, who was sitting next to her, looked at Livilia with a hint of strong curiosity and expectation in her eyes and said.

"Um, sorry, Aisi, I have to take this bottle of potion back and study it."

Livilia looked at Ais with an apologetic look on her face.

"Woo..." Aisi's pretty little face puffed up slightly.

Livilia naturally noticed Ais's dissatisfaction and couldn't help but reach out and touch her head.

"Aisi, potions and the like are just external objects after all."

"You heard what the young man said just now. The effect will only last for three minutes."

"Although you become stronger during those three minutes, you will return to your normal strength after the effect ends."

"Oh... I know," Ai Si nodded honestly, curling her lips and continuing, "But I still want to give it a try. Maybe I can find an opportunity for a breakthrough."

After hearing this, Livilia smiled.

"An opportunity for a breakthrough? Well, I'll give it to you after I've finished my research."

"But remember, Aisi, potions and the like are just external things after all. Don't make a habit of relying on them."

Livilia rubbed Ais's head lovingly and gave her earnest advice.

"Yes, I know."

Ais nodded obediently.

After returning to the clan, Livilia immediately plunged into the research of potions.

If she could develop this all-purpose potion, future expeditions into the depths would become much easier.

However, the more she studied, the more shocked Livilia became.

Because the ingredients in the potion are almost all those she is familiar with.

However, those materials, when mixed together, can make this all-purpose potion?

Such a thing is totally impossible.

Because some of those materials even have repulsive properties and will conflict with each other.

"Hmm... I can't figure it out... I can't figure it out... As expected, I still have to try refining it myself."

Livilia muttered something, then immediately called over other members of her clan to help her purchase the materials, and then she personally made a replica of the almighty potion.

However, no matter how she imitated it or adjusted the ratio, she could not produce the same all-purpose potion.

Moreover, some of the potions produced, far from having any positive effects, caused diarrhea in the clan members who were treated as guinea pigs after drinking them.

Because of this, within just one day, rumors spread among Loki's family that Livilia was researching a strange potion.

Such rumors even alarmed Finn, the leader of the Loki group, to come forward.

"Rivilia, are you there?"

Finn knocked on the door of Riveria's room.

However, Livilia, who was hiding in the house, did not respond to his knock on the door, but continued to concentrate on studying the almighty potion in front of her.

Seeing no response for a long time, Finn had no choice but to push the door open.

"Rivellia?"

After entering the room, Finn immediately saw Livilia huddled in front of the table, concentrating on studying the potion.

He looked as if he was possessed by a demon.

"Rivellia? Rivellia?"

Finn had no choice but to reach out and shake Livilia's shoulders, which woke her up from her crazy state.

"Ah, Finn, what's wrong?"

Livilia came back to her senses, touched her head and looked at Finn.

"Livilia, there have been bad rumors circulating within the clan lately. It's said that you're researching some terrible potion to punish members who don't follow the rules and slack off on their training."

Finn waved his hand and explained.

"Huh? Um...who spread this rumor?"

"That's not the case at all."

Livilia was confused.

"I'm just researching a high-level potion that can increase mana and have other effects. There's no such thing as poisoning the members."

Livilia's explanation left Finn a little confused.

Why is the gap so big?

And at this time, Livilia also explained the effect of the all-purpose potion.

After hearing this, Finn looked at the bottle of golden potion on the table with some disbelief.

"So, this potion can really increase strength, speed, endurance, and magic power at the same time?"

"You know, a potion that can increase two attributes at the same time is already an extremely rare recovery item, but I've never heard of one that can increase four at the same time."

Finn held his chin and looked at Livilia in disbelief and asked.

"Ah, me too. That's why I want to research and replicate this all-purpose potion. This way, my chances of success in future expeditions to the deep will be greatly increased."

Livilia nodded slightly and stated her ultimate goal.

After hearing this, Finn touched his chin, thought for a moment, and looked at Livilia.

"But Livilia, I have a question. Does this item called the Almighty Potion really have the effect you described?"

"As much as I hate to think it, you might be getting scammed."

"After all, an item that increases four attributes simultaneously is more than just rare."

Livilia could naturally understand Finn's words.

"Ah, in that case, let's find someone to test the effects of this potion. What do you think?"

Livilia stroked her chin and made a decision.

Because what Finn said did make sense. Although she could feel that this potion had the effect of restoring magic power and increasing strength, nothing else could be felt.

And if someone actually drinks this potion to test it, then they can get the most direct result.

"Then I'll go find someone."

Finn nodded and said with a slightly expectant smile on his face.

Naturally, he was curious about the prop that Livilia was so interested in.

"Well, that's not necessary. I already have a candidate. Aisi has been wanting to try it for a long time."

Livilia waved her hand and picked up the all-purpose potion.

"Really? If this is a test, one person alone might not be enough. I'm afraid we'll need a suitable opponent."

After Finn thought about it, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"Come to think of it, isn't there an opponent suitable for Ais?"

"Huh? Ah, Finn, you're not planning on…"

"Well, it just so happens that they had some conflicts during the previous expedition, and we can take this opportunity to resolve it directly."

"Haa ...

Livilia rubbed it and said with some concern.

Chapter 31 Level 5 Battle

"Hey, did you hear? The showdown between Bert and Ace is about to begin. I'm afraid you don't see something like this once a year."

"Ah, I heard it, and this time, even with the captain's permission. That's right, the captain approved of the duel."

"This is so exciting, Ai Si and Bert. You know, they are both level 5, the top fighters in our group. This duel cannot be missed."

"What's going on? Ace is going to fight Bert. I have to see it. I really want to see that stinking Bert get beaten to the ground by Ace."

……

The news of the upcoming duel between Ai Si and Bert quickly spread among the Loki clan.

At that moment, most of the members of Loki's family gathered on the grass in front of the mansion, all discussing this matter.

Even the Amazon sisters who were relaxing on the streets not long ago immediately returned to their clan after hearing the news.

"Ah, I didn't expect that Ai Si would actually fight Bert. This is really exciting."

"Well, it would be even better if I could replace Ais."

Tiona held her chin and said with a hint of regret.

"Forget it, Diona. With what you said, you would be killed instantly if you faced Bert."

Tione, who was standing nearby, glanced at her unhappily and waved her hand.

"Ugh, that was a bit too much for a moment. Although Burt is indeed fast, I'm not that slow. And if I hit Burt once, then..."

Tiona couldn't help but defend herself.

Of course, she still had to admit that Burt was better in terms of speed.

"Ah, yes, yes," Dione was too lazy to argue with her and turned to look towards the entrance of the mansion.

"coming."

"Ah...why is it Burt's."

Tiona said somewhat disappointedly.

"Humph, a bunch of losers, just like to watch the fun."

Burt put his hands in his pockets and glanced proudly at the people gathered by the grass.

Wherever his eyes fell, everyone in the Loki group lowered their heads, not daring to look him in the eye.

The open space that was extremely noisy the previous second was suddenly eerily quiet.

However, before long, the quiet air was broken by a happy shout.
