Chapter 594 Noggenfogger's Potion
Chapter 594 Noggenfogger's Potion
Lilith said she would give Lorraine a set of bright red and bright blue...
Lorraine didn't refuse...
High-grade healing and mana restoration potions made by apothecaries are considered hard currency in Orgrimmar... They are also traded between adventurer guilds... Undead seem to not need to eat, but the Forsaken are not ordinary undead.
There seems to be an innate, ingrained obsession within the human soul with processing food...
It is said that when flesh-and-blood creatures tasted another kind of flesh and blood cooked by flames, they developed strange desires and obsessions... The wisdom of biological evolution is probably closely related to the way food is digested; it's not just that shaved monkeys picked up sticks, straightened their backs, and collected seeds...
It is closely related to lifestyle habits, environmental changes, dietary habits, and the tools used...
The so-called Shadow Elves, according to the ancient magical treasury of Karazhan, were originally a branch of the dark trolls who, under the influence of the Well of Eternity, gained intelligence and became calm and wise...
Of course, this is just one perspective from among the eight Kirin Tor arcane schools...
Before various documents confirm this, most people, even those who believe in a creator, cannot understand why there are so many different kinds of life in the world...
The wise men of Azeroth, especially the experts of the Kirin Tor, unanimously agreed that the origin of life was likely not creation, but rather transformation... A chain reaction, triggered by a series of coincidences and the accumulation of energy to a certain degree, gave rise to life...
They believed that was arcane energy... the very essence of magic.
The essence of magic lies in the ability to create, collide, and separate new substances and life through the combination, collision, and separation of elements...
Arcane origins are energy, and the archaeologists among the gnome mages believe that the energy emanating from the Heart of Azeroth created the magical world... Science and alchemy can both be combined with magic, and the boundaries between mechanics and life itself, if not shackles, are magical catalysts and mediums that promote evolution...
Based on this, anything is possible, including some of the most famous things, such as the renowned chef's creation of the delicacy: [Delicious Wind Serpent]...transformation, etc.
Other strangely intelligent beings, such as the cleverest goblins, saw the infinite possibilities inherent in the instability of matter... Some concocted even more wondrous potions, the effects of which were uncertain, but they possessed miraculous powers, commanded exorbitant prices, and were rarely available...
That was the precious reward Lilith offered Lorraine: "Griffith Potion..."
The name "Gliffe Potion" is probably wrong; the real name should be "Nogfogger Potion"... Lilith has never been to the Tanaris Desert, the southernmost part of Kalimdor, and she only occasionally obtained this magical potion.
【Noggenfogger's Elixir】was created by Marin Noggenfogger, a goblin genius. He and his wife, a goblin chef, initially had little reputation in Gadgetzan, a major goblin town in the neutral desert...
With the miraculous effects of the Noggenfogger potion, word spread quickly...
Marin & Noggenfogger, originally a down-on-his-luck junk collector and low-level mechanic among the goblins, instantly transformed into a top-tier apothecary... accumulating immense wealth, his reputation even rivaling that of Gazvel, the goblin master craftsman of Ratchet...
Marin has been elected mayor of Gadgetzan, and his miraculous potion, Noggenfogger Elixir, is in high demand... Marin has a stake in the Gadgetzan Consortium... Goblins can also find wealth in the mysterious desert, and even travel between the Horde and the Alliance to acquire riches.
If Lorraine remembers correctly, his teacher mentioned that on the coast of the Barrens, there is a port city that leads directly to Booty Bay in Stranglethorn Vale across the sea. It is also a neutral goblin city that both the Alliance and the Horde can enter: Ratchet.
Lorraine wasn't sure if the potion Lilith couldn't even pronounce correctly was the famous transformation potion. He did recall that Rexxar, the Beastmaster, had mentioned that the mysterious underground kingdom and the establishment of Orgrimmar were both related to the legendary goblin master craftsman Gazvel.
Gazveru seems to be the master of Ratchet, the renowned chief engineer of the goblins. Behind him, the Goblin Guild, Blackwater Bandits, Venture Capital Firm, and the Gadgetzan Consortium appear to be fighting their own battles, but Lorraine has heard from his teacher that these goblins, though unassuming, are actually the kings of the underworld...
The Beast King, whose claim was dubious, said that Gazvel had deceived him. Lorraine, however, was curious about what the goblin craftsman had actually done.
Are these goblins, who have no concept of loyalty, only business, and who constantly say that time is money, also enemies of the tribe?
......
"Here you go! One gold coin for a bottle, it'll make you feel lightheaded... Keep the bottle, you can use it for a lottery..."
Lorraine had already walked some distance, along the downward-sloping staircase, when Lilith stood on a high point and threw a cloth bag at him.
Lorraine deftly caught the cloth bag with a flourish... Upon opening it, she found an exquisite glass container; the green potion looked strange, its ingredients unknown, though the packaging was beautiful...
[Goblin-made, absolutely stable]
Lorraine was actually quite curious about the famous Noggenfogger potion...
When he actually saw it, he wasn't sure if he dared to drink the strange liquid that looked like green poison.
Moreover, it's the work of a goblin engineer who was skilled in explosives but later became a pharmacist...
"Here you go, keep gloating... I'm off, girl... We Forsaken can eat anything, we're not afraid of getting diarrhea, but I advise you never to touch the products of the Royal Alchemist Association, they're truly deadly formulas..."
Lorraine's bag still contained a sample of the anti-magic potion, along with the plague reagent used to poison the enemy. The more ghastly green it appeared, the more terrified he felt... The seemingly colorless and odorless anti-magic potion had once wiped out the battlemage Ambermill's forces in Dalaran...
.......
"Sigh, you'll regret this. I really did drink Griffith's potion... Besides turning you into a skeleton, sometimes you can shrink, float, and swim in the air... It's amazing..."
Lilith described it vividly; she was heartbroken to have taken out the potion.
Who knew that Lorraine, that idiot, wouldn't want her precious baby...
"don't want..."
"you..."
......
"Let's go... it's getting dark outside, look at the stars..."
Lorraine tilted his head and looked up, catching a glimpse of the night sky over the barren land through a crack in the ground... Without the mountains to obscure it, the night sky on the grassland seemed almost within reach. Without the rain or mist to block its view, Lorraine could even see ribbons of stars...
Lilith followed her gaze, but she couldn't quite make it out... There were some azure halos and shadowy outlines above the crack, and the jagged, broken rocks vaguely resembled a ferocious, enormous monster standing high above them, looking down on them.
Lilith felt a chill run down her spine; she then realized that once she left the cave entrance, the surrounding light had become much dimmer...
The densely packed plant shoots stretched out like the claws of a demon...
The undead girl suddenly felt unwell, and involuntarily followed Lorraine's army.
But Lorraine's subordinates were the true skeletons of the dead. These death guards, resurrected from the remains of orcs, cavemen, and unknown races, were more terrifying than beasts themselves...
After packing a large bag full of herbs, the initial joy finally gave way to a sense of danger...
Compared to Ragefire Rift, visibility here is poor, and strange noises occasionally come from different directions, while boulders fall high into the air, creating long echoes...
The scenery in this barren land is quite beautiful, especially at night... On the grassland, the night breeze is cool, and the starry sky is overhead. If it weren't for the threat of some wild animals, you could really feel a magnificent, open, wild yet tranquil atmosphere.
The teacher said this is a world where every angle offers a different feeling and scenery. Lilith spent most of her time near Undercity before moving to Orgrimmar with her guild. The environment there is dry and arid, yet it has a certain sense of freedom...
Antelope, zebra, chocobo and jackal, lion and wildebeest... giraffe...
The only strange and unexpected thing is that there are velociraptors here...
Thunder lizards and giant kodo beasts graze freely, but more dangerously, boarmen and centaurs will mercilessly kill any intruders they discover...
The grassland above the fissure looked like this, and the mysterious forbidden area beneath the crevice... Not far along, Lilith sensed a familiar, foul odor in the air...
The smell of burning corpses was all too familiar to every forgotten soul who crawled out of their grave...
Lilith looked up and saw Lorraine standing in front of her. Below the next step, which had been obscured, lay a scorching terraced field of lava lake...
