The Witcher: Son of the Planes
Chapter 281 The torture of human nature
It took nearly half a year to buy the materials Snape needed, mainly because some scarce items took a little longer, so Colin filled several space equipments to load them all.
This time, Colin went to the underground world for the transaction alone. He didn't talk along the way and didn't delay anything. He rode Charles to New Tre. After arriving at New Tre, he didn't see Snape, but Beta was the guarantor. According to the agreed price, after Beta paid Colin, Colin was ready to leave.
Colin didn't have to see Snape this time. Beta had already settled the bill with him, so there was no need to worry too much.
This kind of transaction doesn't happen often, and it's not known when the next time will be. After telling Beta that there will be a chance to contact again, Colin embarked on the road back to the surface.
As a result, before Colin left the first floor of the underground world, he received a message from Snape, hoping to meet at the Evening Breeze Tavern. Colin thought there was a problem with the quantity of materials, and didn't think much about it, so he turned around and returned.
At the Evening Breeze Tavern, based on the information collected from Earth last time, although Snape was well disguised, Colin still recognized him sitting in the corner at the first time.
"Why are you so anxious? Is there something wrong? Is the quantity of supplies not right? I'm just about to return to the surface." Colin asked as he sat opposite Snape.
"I have received news of the delivery of supplies from Beta. The supplies are fine. I'm not talking to you about this. I want to ask, do you want to make some other money?" Snape asked.
"What? Just say it directly."
"It's that some areas under our control are short of personnel, and some forces lack manpower for experiments. I hope you can help buy some over. There is no problem with the cost. Don't worry, you will definitely be satisfied."
"Staff? Do you mean the local staff of the wizarding world, or the staff of other planes?" Although Colin was a little confused about Snape's statement, he still asked directly.
"We also have channels to buy people from other planes. We just hope to buy some people from this plane, or slaves..."
"I've heard that black wizards will do anything to improve their strength. Is it because Dalavini doesn't have enough people? Do they want to harm people from this plane?" Colin was also a little unhappy. He didn't take human life seriously.
"I'm afraid I can't help you with this. I'm really not convenient to do this business. Sorry." In the end, Colin suppressed his anger and said.
Snape looked at Colin deeply. He thought that although Colin was a white wizard, he still had a great desire for money. He thought that this transaction request would go smoothly. He didn't expect this guy to be so naive. He couldn't bear to give up some ordinary humans? It seems that he can't do it without spending a lot of money.
"I have a book to help you cultivate your spiritual power. It can be used with your meditation practice. I can't say how much more it can do, but it can definitely increase the growth by 50%. This is also the secret technique I am practicing now. I wonder if you are interested?"
"Oh? I am really interested. What do you need?" Colin was immediately excited when he heard this. He was worried about the slow improvement of his spiritual power.
Snape just continued to look at Colin and didn't say anything.
Seeing that Snape didn't say anything but looked at him, Colin understood that he wanted him to agree to buy a batch of humans before he was willing to talk about the specific transaction.
Colin pondered and didn't say anything. Although he was not a person from this world, he had lived in this world for more than a hundred years and had long regarded himself as a person from this plane.
Although he was not a good man or a believer, he was not an evil person. In the past, he had used sub-humans from other planes to do experiments, which was enough to break his bottom line. This time, it was obvious that Snape was going to buy a batch of local humans and sell them to other forces as experimental specimens.
If he didn't do this business, Colin believed that he could be promoted to the second level with his hard work, but if he did this business, he might be promoted many years earlier. He was not a family member, and there were still many things he needed to accomplish. If he could be promoted earlier, the results of many things might be different.
But, can he really break through his long-term persistence? Last time, Edith and I had made an exception in Willisel and killed a passing wizard. This time, for the sake of promotion, he broke through again?
Although practicing witchcraft does not require refining the heart like the immortal cultivation novels in the previous life, but abandoning the long-term persistence and being broken through again and again, will it not affect his future path?
For a moment, Colin could not make a decision easily, and he was still struggling in his heart.
Snape on the opposite side was not in a hurry. He looked at Colin quietly, waiting for Colin's answer.
He knew that the tempting thing he threw out would definitely change Colin's mind. These white wizards are so sanctimonious. They obviously want it very much, but they still have to find all kinds of reasons. They are hypocritical and not straightforward at all.
Unlike us black wizards, we are the most direct. We never find any reasons. We buy, rob, and hide when we want it. We don't care how many people we offend or kill for this, as long as it is for ourselves.
Colin finally made up his mind to do this. When he looked up at Snape, he found that Snape was looking at him straight, with a smile on his lips, as if he had guessed that he would agree.
"Damn it, did you think you had me? If not..., forget it, just consider it as your winner this time." Colin thought helplessly.
"I agree. You can take out your book now."
Snape took out a copy from his space ring and handed it to Colin. Colin only glanced at a few pages and felt that what Snape said was true. It should be effective for him. If he followed Snape's words, he would be promoted to level 2 many years earlier.
"What do you need?" Colin asked after returning the copy to Snape.
"Anything is fine, as long as it complies with the principle of equivalent transaction. As for the personnel I just told you about, I will also pay them. That's another matter."
Colin silently thought about the various items he had. He couldn't give him the method of refining the manganese heart potion. He didn't want to trade the refined potion to him.
As for other things, Colin had thought about their uses in advance. No, he could simply settle with wizard coins. I guess this guy wouldn't want to. Forget it, he should give him some Fountain of Life. This is the thing he has the most.
After thinking about it, Colin took out 7 drops of Fountain of Life and handed them to Snape.
As soon as the Fountain of Life was taken out, Snape felt a strong life energy. In these years in Dalavini, he used a lot of secret techniques to improve his strength, and many of these secret techniques were based on the premise of harming his own lifespan.
Snape recognized the thing Colin took out. It was the Fountain of Life. Although he had no chance to take it, some big forces still had this thing in their hands, but he had never had a channel to obtain it.
"This is not enough. My book can be traded repeatedly, and yours will be gone once you take it..."
"I..., can this be calculated like this? Forget it, I will give you 3 drops at most, no more, and the effect will decrease after each use, so it's useless if you want more." Colin didn't like Snape's greed, but he really needed the book.
"Okay, deal! I hope you can send those people here as soon as possible, or send them to New Trey, I need them urgently."
"I will keep my promise, so goodbye." The last time Colin talked with Snape, he thought he might be able to become friends with him. After what happened today, Colin felt that he couldn't get along with him. He didn't like this kind of person at all. He was too calculating. It was better to maintain a trading relationship and not get any closer.
