Goblin Dependency Chapter 164 - 164 105 Start Brushing!3

164: Chapter 105: Start Brushing!_3 164: Chapter 105: Start Brushing!_3 For those seasoned adventurers who can earn several hundred, even four-digit Gold Coins with a single mission, these kinds of potions that can significantly enhance survival rates are undoubtedly worthwhile.

If his future mission targets are demons that clearly possess so kind of special damage, maybe he should also…

Xia Nan shook his head, dispelling the chaotic thoughts within.

A single potion cost him almost half his fortune, sothing far beyond his current consideration.

His footsteps involuntarily quickened as he took a Healing Potion from the shelf in the middle of the shop.

He walked towards the counter.

The goods in the Alchemy Shop were expensive; even though it was situated in the bustling Association hall, it received few visitors.

Consequently, the presud shop owner, the bald man who had inford Xia Nan of the “adventurer’s manual” on his first visit to River Valley Town,

Usually clad in his Alchemist robe, lazily reclined on a deck chair behind the counter, occasionally crossing his arms and heading out for casual chats with other staff in the Association, seemingly unconcerned about anyone taking advantage of his absence to act dishonestly with the potions worth tens of thousands of Gold Coins behind him.

Today was no different from usual.

The entire shelf area had only Xia Nan.

At the counter, there was just one additional custor.

Similarly fully ard, clad in thick Iron Armor, with bloodstains still visible on the elbow’s padding.

The person stood with their back to Xia Nan, concealing their appearance, but by their short, tidy hair and their robust physique, it wasn’t hard to tell…

“Quit the chatter, just take the money.”

Hmm?

The voice was hoarse and deep, yet the tone was slightly soft and gentle.

A woman?

His gaze instinctively paused.

Confirming, his eyes once again swept over the person’s short, fine black hair indistinguishable from a buzz cut, and their muscular body.

They seed to be arguing over sothing with the shop owner, their conversation growing ever more heated.

“Isn’t it the umpteenth ti this month?

Where’s the Detoxification Ointnt I sold you last ti?

Don’t tell it’s used up again.”

“With the Earth Goblins around, those Green-skinned beasts seem to have grown brains, using poison.”

“Eighty percent of the Gold Coins you’ve earned this past six months must have been spent in my shop, right?

Even Old Charlie next door, who’s known for ‘only betting on losses,’ dared to wager with on you not surviving until next year.”

“Heh (cold laugh).”

“If I were to say, save the money you spend on potions and head to Neum…”

“Bang!” was the noise of a money pouch slamming against the table, laden with impatience, “There are 50 Gold inside; it’s just a Healing Potion, stop dawdling!”

“Damn…” accompanied by a sigh, the bottom of a glass potion scraped against the wooden table, “I bet 300 copper coins with him that you’d at least make it to the end of this winter, don’t…”

“Clack…”

No response, just the sound of footsteps gradually fading into the air.

Seeing this, Xia Nan dropped his raised ear, purposefully made so noise, and stepped out from behind the shelf.

“Healing Potion, 50 Gold.”

Having only t once, the bald man didn’t recognize the black-haired young man before him, rely treating him as a regular custor.

Despite his curiosity about the earlier conversation, Xia Nan stayed silent.

Handing over the Gold Coins, he slipped the Healing Potion into his easily accessible waist pouch and exited the shop.

The “Healing Potion” was expensive, but undoubtedly, its exaggerated effect of healing minor wounds in a breath and sustaining life against critical injuries was worth it.

To Xia Nan, it was an essential item before venturing out, one of the crucial trump cards in battles.

The one he bought earlier, the last drop was consud in his fight with the Thorn Demon, so upon returning to River Valley Town, he naturally had to restock it.

Then…

“Rest for two days first?”

Xia Nan pondered.

This trip, though at the cost of two pieces of armor and half a bottle of Healing Potion, yielded equally substantial gains.

Following behind the barbarian, casually picking up so items, increased his assets to over 400 Gold Coins;

More importantly, he completed a key prerequisite to obtaining a Professional Level, mastering a new Battle Skill “Teeth Hunting,” and acquiring advanced knowledge related to “specialty” – the type of specialty that sowhat influences job direction;

He even discovered so hidden truths about Goblins and their main deity during conversations with Frogon.

His upcoming goals couldn’t be clearer.

First, find a way to acquire new Battle Skills (preferably aligned with the Warrior profession direction), to accelerate his Professional Level acquisition;

Secondly, save up more money, then go to “Rock Hamr” Barn to upgrade his Snake Scale Arm Shield to Magic Equipnt.

Given the strength of this Otherworldly Snake Scale, forging it into Magic Equipnt would certainly bring a qualitative boost to his combat power.

Lastly, since “Teeth Hunting” was now fully at the Beginner stage, displayed on his attribute panel.

During this ti, he could earn money while enhancing his “Teeth Hunting” Skill Level through training and battles.

Musing over this, his eyes unconsciously stared at his own reflection in the glass surface ahead.

Semitransparent characters erged before his eyes:

“Teeth Hunting” lv1 (1/100)

“Forget it, rest is unnecessary.”

“Let’s get started!”
