Chapter 154 Unexpected Market
After all, the alchemist was quite wealthy. If he dared to win over Roland, the things he had must be quite good. Most likely, they were good things that would be attractive to high-level spellcasters.
However, Roland is not an ordinary spellcaster. With his knowledge, ordinary things cannot attract him. If you want to attract his attention, it must be a legendary equipment.
As for the magical knowledge left by the Lich King that they hinted at, Roland was even less interested.
The thing he lacks the least is magical knowledge.
Since Roland was totally unimpressed and coldly rejected the invitation, the alchemist who came to invite him did not dare to force Roland to accept it, and finally had to leave in disgrace.
After the alchemist left in disgrace, Roland didn't think much about it and took Hela back to their temporary residence in the New East District.
The situation in the New East District has been established. With the Radiant Knights and the Inquisition, no matter how dissatisfied the alchemists are, they are helpless through formal channels.
The New East District is now the territory of the Radiant Knights and the Inquisition. If the alchemist dares to cause trouble, he will die if he tries.
The Inquisition did not put in its full efforts and suppressed the alchemists at will. The alchemists could not bear it and spent huge sums of money to recruit a bunch of forces to stand on their side. The alchemists had to cut their losses.
You're so bad at defending, and you still want to take the initiative to attack and cause trouble?
In Roland's opinion, the alchemists were not fools, so they were unlikely to do this. They would most likely just grit their teeth and endure it.
After all, Roland also left them a way out, didn't he?
However, although he felt that the alchemist would most likely not dare to cause trouble, Roland did not plan to stay in Ginza for long.
After the cheap alchemical products were put on the shelves, Roland officially entered the sight of various forces in Ginza.
Although Roland's deliberately created identity as a high-level spellcaster made them somewhat cautious, if Roland continued to stay in Ginza, all kinds of peeping and temptation would come sooner or later.
After all, as long as a powerless high-level spellcaster stayed in Ginza, no matter what he did, he would most likely disrupt the situation in Ginza. Naturally, various forces would have to test Roland's intentions.
With Roland's knowledge, it is not difficult for him to disguise himself as a high-level necromancer by relying on the Blessing and the Crown of Domination. However, Roland does not want to waste the power of the Blessing and the Crown of Domination for the sake of disguise.
Therefore, Roland planned to stay in Ginza for another month or two, and then leave Ginza.
As for where to go next, Roland was a little hesitant.
According to the original plan, Roland intended to stay in Ginza for a year or two, and then go to Donnar to dig for treasure after Donnar stabilized. But now, Donnar is still in a mess.
In addition to Donnar, Roland did not have other goals.
You can go to the Kes Mountains to live in seclusion for another year or two, and dig up some relics and collect more extraordinary materials.
Or you could continue westward to the Kingdom of Inter and visit the gnolls, or you could go south and return to the Tower of Truth, or visit the small human countries in the south.
If all else fails, he can take a boat to the sun elves.
As mid-level spellcasters, Roland and Hela would not be discriminated against by the sun elves, so getting in should not be a problem.
However, although he had many ideas, Roland didn't know why he had no interest in any of them and didn't want to go to any of them. Therefore, after hesitating for a long time, Roland chose to escape and put this problem behind him. He planned to think about it slowly after leaving Ginza and devoted himself to the work of the alchemy workshop.
Roland had spent another dozen peaceful days.
The cheap alchemical potions that were continuously produced in the New East District finally began to take effect.
After all parties completed the inspection of the alchemical potion, and the Pantheon and the Spellcaster Association stepped in to ensure the safety of the alchemical potion.
These alchemical potions that were not recognized by the alchemist circle quickly defeated other alchemical potions on the market and devoured the Ginza alchemical potion market at an alarming rate.
Moreover, as the caravan traveled day and night, the alchemical potion quickly radiated to the surrounding cities with Ginza as the center.
Since the formula Roland provided was almost the most cost-effective formula of this era, and the Radiant Knights and the Inquisition had no intention of making money from it, there was basically no cutting of corners.
Therefore, the alchemical potions in the New East District are not only 60% cheaper than those produced by the alchemist circle, but also three times more effective.
The most important point is that the alchemical potions produced in the New East District have stable effects. Unlike the old alchemical potions, each bottle of alchemical potion has different effects. If you are unlucky, you may drink an alchemical potion that has no effect at all. You may even drink a potion that is not only ineffective but also harmful to your body.
In the past, it was monopolized by the alchemist circle, and there was no choice but to gamble. However, now that new alchemy potions are here, who the hell would buy the old ones?
It is known that alchemists often left Ginza in the past, but now, alchemists basically do not leave Ginza unless it is necessary.
Guess why?
You know, many people have been killed because of the unstable effects of the old alchemy potion. Some extraordinary people who have been badly cheated would be happy to kill them halfway.
Comparing the poor quality old alchemy potion with the cheaper, more effective and stable new alchemy potion, even a fool would know which one to choose.
Before the Radiant Knights even had time to promote the new alchemical potion, word of it quickly spread among adventurers.
As a result, the alchemical potions were sold out within a day after being transported to other cities.
The Radiant Knights were somewhat surprised by this, but they did not blindly expand their production capacity. Perhaps they were just lucky and encountered an adventure group that used the potion?
Therefore, the number of alchemical potions shipped out of Ginza every day remains at a stable number.
However, these potions were being sold out at an increasingly faster rate. There was even a situation where before the caravan even reached the city, an adventure group would come over, wave their hands, and swallow up all the potions in the caravan.
In the end, there were even adventure groups that sent people specifically to Ginza to order large quantities of alchemical potions. They did not let go of any alchemical potions on the market, and with large amounts of money, they bought up all the alchemical potions sold in almost all the shops in Ginza.
Due to this crazy demand, the prices of some new alchemical potions that flowed into the black market even increased by more than ten times.
The Glorious Knights were really surprised by this madness.
No, for so many years, hasn't the market for alchemical potions only been as big as the one developed by alchemists? How come the demand has suddenly increased so much?
That's strange.
