After half a ring.

Richard appeared in a box in the tavern with a wooden box, and there was already a person waiting in the box, also carrying the box - Alex.

"Have you collected all the things I want?" asked Richard as he looked at Alex.

Alex, who was shaped like a dwarf winter melon, placed the wooden box on the table in the box, and took out the contents one by one to display.

"This is the lens barrel that you want, specially machined, this is the polished crystal piece, this is what is the bracket, this is the knob. "And these, the materials you asked me to collect, and a whole bunch of things you added under the chest." ”

"Anyway, everything on the list is here. In order to collect them all, but it took a lot of effort, and the whole person lost weight. Alex complained.

"Isn't it?" Richard looked at Alex, "why didn't I see that?"

"How is that possible!" Alex exclaimed with some excitement, pointing with his hand, "Look here! It used to be three chins, but now there are only two. And here! There used to be six pleats on the neck, but now there are only five. This...... Isn't that obvious enough?!"

Richard: "......" is obvious enough, forgive my clumsiness......

"Alright, look at what I brought you. Richard let out a sigh of relief, not wanting to continue discussing the appearance with Alex, so he put the wooden box on the table, opened it, and took out the diluted potion and showed it to Alex.

"What is this?" Alex took a bottle and studied it carefully, uncorked it with a "bang", sniffed it with his nose, and guessed with a frown, "Mana recovery potion?"

"You can find out in one sip. Richard said.

"There won't be any problems, right?" Alex immediately became vigilant when he heard this, "Your potion won't be poisonous, right?

Richard didn't bother to explain, snatched the flask from Alex's hand, took a sip, showed it to Alex, and then handed it back.

"That's okay, right?"

"Uh, okay. Alex nodded, relieved, took a sip, felt something, and then took a sip.

"Hmm-"

After a while, Alex's face turned red, and he stood up from his seat with a "brush", waved his hands, and said at a speed more than twice as fast as usual: "I feel it, I feel it, this is wine! Well, what a strong wine! I feel that my whole body is warm!"

After speaking, Alex staggered to the side, and accidentally pushed a heavy walnut cabinet in the room crookedly.

Well?

Alex was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed: "Wow! This wine is really powerful, I just took a sip, and I was so drunk, I lifted myself a lot of strength, good wine!"

Richard: "......"

I began to think in my heart that maybe I should change to a normal intermediary businessman and cooperate better.

......

Moment.

"Whew!"

Alex was paralyzed on the ground, taking in less air and excavating more, looking like he was dying, his chapped lips opened and closed, and he said with difficulty, "Water...... Water...... Water ......"

Richard took the water and poured it into Alex's mouth.

"Boom Knock Knock...... Alex gulped down, regained his strength for a long time, and then was pulled up by Richard and thrown back into his seat.

"I ...... What's wrong with me? Am I not drunk? What's the matter...... So tired?" Alex muttered, "My arm hurts, and my waist hurts......"

"Have you forgotten what you just did?" said Richard, "but you've turned all the furniture in the room upside down several times, so it's no wonder you're not tired." ”

"Huh, is what just happened true?" Alex finally reacted, looking at the small potion left on the table, and his eyes flashed, "It's not wine!

"It's called 'Spartan Warrior Elixir'. Richard said, "Drinking it, in a short period of time, you can become as powerful as a Spartan warrior - strength, speed, endurance, and reflexes are greatly improved." ”

"So powerful?!" Alex swept away his tired face, his eyes shining brightly.

"I've decided to entrust you with the sale, selling 2 inferior crystals in a bottle - well, it must be crystals, not gold. Richard said.

"With such an effect, selling 2 inferior crystal coins is not a big problem......" Alex nodded, very agreeable, and then frowned, "But ......"

"For every bottle sold, I give you a five-percent commission. Richard said.

"Well, that's a 'but'. Alex said quickly, "I promise, there are no more problems, I can sell as much as you have." ”

"It's for the best. Richard said, "I'll bring 100 bottles this time." If it sells well, there are another 100 bottles. ”

Alex rubbed his hands, his eyes shining like gold coins: "Okay, good......"

"But......" Alex looked at Richard, "but ...... I have a question, how is this potion made? You made it yourself, and ......."

Richard interrupted Alex and said, "Remember what I said before, the premise of our cooperation?"

"Well, don't explore. Alex said, "Well, well, I won't ask." However, there is a curiosity, I still want to know the answer, which has nothing to do with the origin of the potion, but the name of the potion. ”

Say. ”

"Why is this potion called 'Spartan Warrior Elixir'? Who is a Spartan Warrior? Why has a small country believed in the god of war? Why have I never heard of it? ”

"It's just a legend. Richard said, glanced at Alex's confused expression, and briefly told the story of "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta".

Half ringing.

"So three hundred warriors of Sparta resisted the hundreds of thousands of troops of the evil king called Xerxes?" Alex said as he looked at Richard with wide eyes, "Is it so powerful? ”

"Maybe it's because the legendary place is too far away from here. Richard said. If we use the distance from the modern earth to the current world, it is indeed far, far away......

"Then I'll have no problem, see you next time. ”

"Okay, see you next time. Richard said, stood up, took Alex's box, and walked out.

Alex also stood up and was about to carry the suitcase, but fell to the ground with a "poof".

When Richard heard the voice, he didn't turn his head, he already knew the reason, and said loudly: "Your body is too bad, after taking the medicine just now, you were too excited, the amount of activity was too great, and you collapsed a little, so you should honestly rest here before leaving." ”

"But you can't be kind enough to pull me up?"

"Actually, if you are reasonable, you will recover faster when you lie on the ground than if you sit on a chair. ”

"I ......"

"Also, in the meantime, you can think about how you'll explain to the tavern owner that you've moved all the furniture. ”

"I ......"

With a "squeak", in Alex's wide eyes, Richard pushed the door and walked out.
