Chapter 47

Lievre was not acting on impulse. He obviously prepared to join the caravan early. Halfway through, he took time to write home and asked people to prepare a full set of alchemy instruments and mail them to the Alchemist Association in Yingzui City.

Counting the time, it should have arrived.

The old alchemist hoped to receive those alchemy instruments as soon as possible. He couldn't wait to devote himself to research, while Mali himself needed to do a magic appraisal.

This is actually something that every magic apprentice will do before entering the academy, the purpose is to check the element affinity to confirm what type of magic the tested person is suitable for.

Mali hadn't entered the Magic Academy, so he naturally missed this basic test. Fortunately, the Alchemist Association could also make up the test.

In addition, Huodun, Weier, and others also had to find Suoluo to demand the reward for clearing the goblin lair before.

Xia'er paid this money to the Adventurer's Guild in advance. According to the regulations, it would be collected by the captain after the mission was completed.

Since everyone had a reason to go to Yingzui City, Mali took that place as the first stop.

Everyone boarded the new car with curiosity.

For them, besides being much larger than the previous off-road vehicle and looking more majestic, the most intuitive feeling was the improvement of riding comfort.

Mali added six seats to the front of the passenger room of the box body. Like the cab, they were all airbag-type, which could offset part of the bumps caused by potholes on the road after inflation.

In addition, the seat height and backrest angle could also be adjusted according to individual needs, and even brought ventilation and heating functions.

This was much more comfortable than sitting directly on the floor and relying on the butt for shock absorption. Each seat was also standard with a seatbelt.

The half-elf girl volunteered to demonstrate the correct usage of the seatbelt for others, ensuring that everyone would not insert it into the wrong jack.

Besides that, the passenger room was also equipped with a water dispenser. The original car's water supply system was done quite well. Although Mali dismantled the external 1000L large water tank and many water pipes in the car to reduce the car weight,

But it still retained the bathroom, toilet, and a water dispenser with its own RO reverse osmosis filter, as well as the built-in 500L water tank, meeting some daily water needs.

Although it was very simple compared to before, it still felt incomparably shocking in the eyes of Weier and others.

A huge carriage that could move quickly without being pulled by horses, pure water continuously emerging from the pipe, plus the unimaginably soft seats, and the toilet that came with the car.

Even in their wildest dreams, they had never dreamed of such a magical scene.

After simple instructions, Mali intended to return to the driver's seat, but then thought of something, took a thermos cup from the car refrigerator in the cab, unscrewed the lid, and handed it to the old alchemist.

"What is this?" Lievre looked at the red viscous liquid inside and asked suspiciously.

"This is fruit and vegetable juice I made with a wall-breaking machine myself. I accidentally discovered that as long as you drink a few sips, you will immediately become energetic, and you won't feel hungry even if you don't eat anything all day."

Mali paused, then continued, "But only this cup has such an effect. The ones made before and after are just ordinary fruit and vegetable juice. I initially suspect that it is because raspberries were added."

"Raspberries?"

"Mm, that was a gift from a strange little girl. I met her in the woods, gave her a ride, and she disappeared mysteriously, leaving only these raspberries for me.

"I boiled them, brought them back to the Red Mist, added some other fruits and vegetables, and made them into fruit and vegetable juice together."

Mali didn't take those small raspberries to heart at the beginning. He drank 300ml of juice in one breath, and the result was that he drove the excavator for 36 hours without rest, laying more than two kilometers of road in one breath.

This obviously couldn't be explained by science.

"By the way," Mali added, "the place where she disappeared was exactly where I encountered that giant bear before."

Hearing this, the half-elf girl also interrupted, "Since you mentioned it, I also remembered one thing. When building the road, villagers also said they ran into a bear. They were terrified at the time, thinking that the bear would eat them, and their legs were scared soft.

As a result, it just glared at them and left, and never appeared again since then."

The old alchemist poured a few drops of fruit and vegetable juice on the back of his hand.

First, he smelled it under his nose, then tasted it, and exclaimed, "What a rich power of nature, this cup... fruit and vegetable juice contains the essence of nature. You might have met a child of nature."

"Druid?" Weier was the first to react. "Isn't it said that they don't like humans? You can hardly see their figures in human towns. Compared to cunning humans, they prefer to accompany animals. Without the help of magic potions, they can communicate with animals by nature, and some of them can freely transform into animal forms."

"It is said that most druids have strange tempers, and only those long-eared elves can talk to them."

"How many raspberries did she give you?" the old alchemist asked.

"Seven, maybe eight or nine, I didn't count them carefully at the time," Mali recalled and said. He only remembered that the size of these raspberries didn't look big, and they were all boiled. Since it was to make fruit and vegetable juice, he threw them all into the wall-breaking machine.

"I suggest you don't drink it all, otherwise you will probably be excited for a long time."

"Are there any side effects of ingesting the essence of nature?" Mali asked for advice.

"No, the pure essence of nature is basically equivalent to vitality. This thing not only has the effect of refreshing and eliminating hunger, but also brings a certain healing effect when you are injured."

"Sounds quite useful," Mali said. "Then I'd better keep it and drink it when I need it."

"Don't keep it for too long, the essence of nature inside will be lost with the decay of the food itself."

"It doesn't matter, I have a refrigerator, I can freeze it."

Mali found that this bottle of fruit and vegetable juice was wrong, and threw it into the freezer at the first time, thinking of taking it to Lievre when he came out.

After answering the doubts in his heart, he handed a box of motion sickness medicine to Leini, told her to take one before each ride, and then sat back in the cab and started the engine.

The half-elf girl also returned to her beloved passenger seat and fastened her seatbelt happily.

This was already her fourth time riding this kind of iron lump with several wheels, and she also completely fell in love with this feeling of speeding, which was cooler than riding a horse!

Although Xia'er hadn't really ridden a horse, she had heard many knight stories when she was a child, and she also felt like other girls that those figures galloping on horses were tall and handsome.

But in front of the rumbling big truck, those heroic knights didn't seem as majestic as in the stories.
