Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons

Watching Adoma collect the items.

Kane couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, then asked, "I want you to help me check the information on two dungeons."

Hearing that Kane needed information, Adoma's eyes lit up immediately.

"Which dungeons do you need to check the information for? Do they have names, or are there any characteristics?"

Kane didn't speak but instead took out a magazine he had read from his space equipment and handed it to her.

Adoma took the magazine and looked at it, flipping directly to the page Kane had folded, immediately spotting the report Kane had marked with a red circle.

"This dungeon? I seem to have heard of it somewhere. What about the other dungeon?"

Upon hearing Adoma's words, Kane immediately responded, "The name is Wraith Tomb Group."

After hearing Kane's reply, Adoma nodded.

Then she took out a sheet of white paper and jotted it down, folding the paper and putting it in her pocket.

"I've noted it down, I'll help you look up the information on these two dungeons later. Do you need it urgently?"

Kane shook his head and said, "Not urgently, I'll come again tomorrow."

"That's good, come by tomorrow then, by that time I should have the information."

After saying this, she quietly leaned closer to Kane's ear and whispered, "Wasn't that round ball following you earlier a smart mechanical assistant?"

Kane didn't feel the need to hide this.

He nodded and said, "Yes, Yo-Yo is what you mentioned before."

Her eyes widened, and she shook Kane's shoulders with her hands.

"So you're that lucky one, huh"

"Mm"

Her eyes were filled with envy after hearing his response.

Her face suddenly turned a little red, and she shyly whispered to Kane, "That red-haired centaur lady, she..."

"No way, get rid of those unrealistic thoughts."

"Tsk"

"Just relying on the benefit of teammates. Such a valiant big sister, what a pity, you lucky guy."

Adoma resumed her usual demeanor, pouting disdainfully while looking Kane up and down, speaking in a sour tone.

Kane didn't mind her and just waved his hand, walking out of the Explorer's House.

Previously, I never noticed this horned girl was into such things, wanting to be my love rival, no way.

On his way back to the villa, Kane saw a fruit stand and bought some fruits.

When Kane returned to the villa, he saw Meizike in the living room, holding a book in one hand and a cup of tea in the other, with his other two hands writing something on the table.

Upon hearing the door open, he turned his head, and upon seeing Kane, he nodded.

"Why are you alone? Where are they?"

"They went out."

Kane nodded and placed the fruits he bought on the coffee table.

"Here, have some fruit."

Saying this, he picked one up and started munching on it by himself.

After Kane finished eating the White Honey Fruit in his hand, Meizike also stopped writing.

"What are you recording?"

"Materials"

"Materials for alchemy potions?"

"Mm"

"Are the materials for alchemy potions insufficient?"

"Mm"

After hearing this, Kane stood up, patted his shoulder, and said, "Then let me accompany you to buy them, since I'm quite bored now, I'd also like to know what materials you pharmacists need for potion concoction."

Meizike nodded and did not refuse.

The two left the villa and went out on the streets.

As for Yo-Yo, she was taken away by Kreya, otherwise, there was a high chance Kreya would get lost in the city, maps didn't help her at all.

However, Kane didn't know the way either, so he had to take out a map from his space and compare it.

Finding his position on the map, he looked around, then pointed in a direction and said, "It should be this way, the Pharmacist Association seems to be in this direction."

After saying this, he started walking forward.

The two followed the map, took several wrong turns, and finally saw the Pharmacist Association.

The building ahead was extremely conspicuous, looking like a giant potion tube, very straightforward indeed.

There were wisps of smoke drifting out from the top of the building.

They followed Meizike inside.

They approached the information desk, inside was a slightly scruffy young man. This was quite different from other places where the front desk was usually staffed by young ladies.

Looking around, most of the people inside looked a bit unkempt. Moreover, the whole association was filled with various peculiar smells.

The young man with a thick one-sided lens looked up and asked, "How can I assist you, sir?"

Meizike didn't speak, he just took out a badge and showed it to him.

And briefly said a word: "Materials"

The young man saw the badge Meizike took out and immediately became respectful.

"Certainly, sir, please follow me."

This badge was actually a representation of the strength given by the Pharmacy Association to individual pharmacists.

Meizike's badge was inlaid with a red gemstone, indicating that he was already a noble pharmacist.

After all, becoming an official pharmacist generally happens after 30, there aren't many official pharmacists in this city.

And Meizike looked very young.

The young man led Kane and Meizike into a room and then took his leave.

Upon entering this room, they were greeted by a mix of herbal aromas and some unpleasant smells.

Meizike didn't show any expression, but Kane was already a bit overwhelmed, so he pinched a nasal plug to block his nose.

The person managing this material warehouse was an elderly middle-aged man, with dry hair, a beard covering his mouth, and even his clothes looked a bit greasy.

He came over without saying anything, just extending his hand.

Meizike directly took out a list he had written in the villa and handed it to him.

Do pharmacists have a habit of not liking to talk? Kane thought somewhat rudely.

He then walked around the warehouse with the list, picking materials from various shelves and putting them into his pocket.

Soon, the medicinal materials he had taken filled a cart.

He then pushed the cart to Meizike, indicating for him to check if the quantities were correct.

"So much?" Kane was a bit surprised to see so many materials.

Meizike nodded without speaking and then stored these materials in his storage space.

After Meizike received the materials, the warehouse keeper handed him a bill.

After taking the bill, the two of them left the warehouse.

While walking, Kane suddenly said, "We'll use our squad's common funds for this expense."

Seeing Meizike's puzzled expression, Kane explained, "After all, you're now a member of our squad, and you're not selling potions anymore, most of the potions you prepare are for our use. These material costs should be shared by us."

Hearing Kane's explanation, Meizike pondered.

He then didn't refuse either, handing the bill to Kane.

Kane glanced over the bill, directly looking at the final amount.

Over 4000 gold, not too expensive, it seems pharmacists really do work in a lucrative industry.

Besides, compared to the potions Meizike provides them, these material costs are a mere trifle; such costs are a small amount for Kane Squad at present.
