Chapter 67

Although Wenlong's promotion was suspected of exaggeration, it was hard for people to find a more reasonable explanation after seeing Katherine's immense power and astonishing stamina.

What Wenlong wanted was this very effect.

These stamina-boosting pills themselves were not problematic; the effects of maintaining stamina had been personally verified by Wenlong. However, to say that they could improve one's constitution was purely Wenlong's fabrication.

Therefore, Wenlong initially said, "If taken long-term, it can permanently enhance one's constitution!" This way, even if others did not see any improvement in their constitution after taking it, Wenlong could attribute the reason to them not having taken it "long-term." However, he deliberately avoided specifying how long "long-term" was and how many stamina-boosting pills were needed to be considered sufficient.

Moreover, if anyone asked about this, Wenlong had already prepared excuses like, "This varies depending on each person's constitution."

Thus, some people in the crowd began to waver.

"Then, how much does one stamina-boosting pill cost?"

"Not expensive, not expensive. For such a good thing, just 998 silver coins, and the stamina-boosting pill will be delivered to your home, meow!"

"998?"

Wenlong said with enthusiasm, "That's 998 silver coins, or 9 gold coins and 98 silver coins. You don't even need 10 gold coins to buy such a wonderful and rare medicine. Aren't you tempted? And this time, I've brought the first batch of limited-edition collectibles, only ten pills. Yes, you heard right, only ten! This limited-edition collectible stamina-boosting pill costs just 998 silver coins. At this price, you won't lose out or be deceived! Directly from the manufacturer, quality guaranteed, meow!"

The crowd began to stir. Some people looked at the stamina-boosting pills in Wenlong's hand with eyes like hungry wolves seeing a fat sheep, clearly showing their intense desire. Others silently felt their pockets, their faces showing regret...

However, a price of nearly ten gold coins was absolutely not something an ordinary hunter could afford, especially in Milad Village, where many new hunters gathered. Moreover, this price was much higher than the recovery potion G that Wenlong had sold at the Silver Dragon Inn, which many people could only look at but not buy. Now, with the stamina-boosting pill, it was even more so.

Therefore, although Wenlong had already stirred up the crowd's emotions, no buyers appeared for a long time.

"Meow, a bunch of poor devils..." Although Wenlong's face wore the characteristic smile of a cunning merchant, he thought to himself.

It wasn't until a while later that a hunter with a large hammer finally took out ten gold coins.

"I want it, I want one!"

Wenlong knew that while the large hammer and dual blades were two different weapons, they shared a common feature: to maximize output, they heavily relied on the hunter's stamina. At such times, the stamina-boosting pill was a highly effective potion.

Therefore, when the hunter with the large hammer was the first to take out the gold coins, Wenlong was not surprised at all. After all, liking something was one thing, but if the item bought did not serve its value, most people would think twice before buying.

"Alright, here are your two silver coins in change. Catch it, meow."

Wenlong then put a stamina-boosting pill in a bottle and handed it to the hunter with the large hammer.

"Who else wants one? There are only nine left in the first batch of limited-edition collectibles..."

"I'll take one too."

The second person to buy was a woman with a hunting bow on her back. She took out ten gold coins from her pocket and reluctantly handed them to Wenlong.

"Got it! Meow!" Wenlong then handed the second stamina-boosting pill to the woman with the hunting bow.

"Who else wants one? Limited-edition collectible stamina-boosting pills..." Wenlong continued to promote, but for a moment, no one else wanted to buy his stamina-boosting pills.

"Hmm... Although the advertisement was very successful, the price of nearly ten gold coins is indeed too high. After all this time, only two have been sold... Although two pills have earned me about 20 gold coins, considering my long-term plans, this amount is far from enough, meow!" Wenlong couldn't help but think.

"How can I sell the remaining eight pills?" While promoting, Wenlong pondered this serious question.

"The first person to buy the stamina-boosting pill was a hunter with a large hammer, and the second was a hunter with a hunting bow... Both weapons have a common point: they require the hunter to build up power while moving, which is extremely stamina-consuming. To sell the remaining stamina-boosting pills, it would be best to find hunters who use weapons that require a lot of stamina..."

"Besides the large hammer and hunting bow, the weapon that requires the most stamina should be... the dual blades that require demonization?"

Thinking this, Wenlong began to look for hunters who used dual blades. Indeed, there were several dual blade hunters, but most of them, judging by their simple equipment, were clearly poor hunters who couldn't afford 998 silver coins.

It wasn't until Wenlong saw Claude.

"This man's equipment looks quite good. The dual blades on his back are made from the materials of a monster called a Shara Bird, and his armor is the famous Shield Crab set. To have such equipment, his skills must be higher than other hunters, and his wallet must be fuller too... Ah, I remember, this man is the one who bought two bottles of recovery potion G for the highest price of ten gold coins at the Silver Dragon Inn last time, right?"

"Indeed, he's a wealthy man, and he uses dual blades, so he has a great need for the stamina-boosting pill, yes... But why is he staring at me with a silly smile? Did he see something good? Or is he infatuated with Katherine? Young people, being infatuated with beautiful women is understandable... Ah, no, it doesn't seem like he's looking at Katherine, but rather at me?"

"Staring at me like this, could he be... a gay man? Impossible, although I was very handsome when I was human, I'm just an Elud cat now. There's no way my handsomeness from back then still exists, right? Could handsomeness also transcend time?"

Before he knew it, a bunch of absurd thoughts popped up in Wenlong's mind.

"Ah, never mind, to sell these stamina-boosting pills, I should try to chat with this person. After all, he's the only one here who looks like he can afford it, meow."
