Different World Reincarnation as a Sage ~With my Gaming Knowledge, I’ll become the World’s Strongest~

◇

A little later.

In the guild's reception room, I was meeting Marquis Maier.

"I'm glad you came to see me, despite my unreasonable offer. You're Eld."

"Oh, originally an adventurer, now I'm helping make a cure here."

"I'm helping ...? Given the situation, it's clear that you told him how to do it, so why did Count Megis bring you here?"

The information that I devised the formula for healing medicine should have been concealed, but ... apparently.

This is the Marquis' research ability.

"Ah. You said you wanted to know how to grow bradonna grass ... I want to hear more about that. The recipe is not easy to teach."

"Of course, I don't think it would be easy to learn how to make a recipe. In fact, I don't want to know how to make a recipe."

"So what do you want to know?"

"I'd like to borrow your wisdom .... I've also looked into Eldo a little, but it's been a month since you came here and Elias started mass production of healing drugs. Successful mass production in a short period of time doesn't you know about healing drugs? "

So that's it.

This is ... it looks really promising.

This person might be able to find out the information I needed to collect in no time.

"Ah. I'm familiar with healing drugs .... What kind of wisdom do you want to borrow?"

"Yes. For example ... if there is a way to make a healing medicine from humans, please tell me .... No, just tell me if you have it or not."

"is there"

I answered Marquis Maier's words immediately.

Hearing that, Marquis Maier opens his eyes with surprise.

I ask the Marquis on the contrary.

"That's the first question ... it's something clues?"

"... I'm talking too fast. It's too early, and I feel scary ..."

The Marquis was surprised at his expression, but pulled out a bunch of thick papers several centimeters thick from his bag.

The title of the document reads "Investigation Report on Cardinal Georgis."

"Please look at this page and this page"

Marquis Maier said that, and pulled two out of the stack of papers.

The first is "Estimated healing drug production in Cardinal Georgis."

The other is "The number of slaves brought to the territory."

... The two data are beautifully proportional.

This is exactly the data I wanted.

Thanks to that, Cardinal Georgis's way of making medicine was narrowed down to one candidate.

"This data ... how did you collect it? Why did you focus on the number of slaves?"

No way Cardinal Georgis can give any data about his territory.

Healing medicines will be sold separately and there will be many slaves, so you will not be able to find out how many have entered a particular territory.

"I collected all the data from the human tactics .... I looked for items that seemed to be related to healing drugs. I really had a hard time collecting this data."

"From one end ..."

With that said, I look at the table of contents in the material.

"Changes in iron ore imports in the Cardinal Georgis territory," "Changes in river flow in the territory," "Changes in strawberry production in the territory."

There's really all sorts of data, at first glance it seems like it doesn't matter.

"How many spies do you need to collect this much information?"

"I need more than 100 people, including behind the scenes. This is the first time I have built such a large intelligence team ... but I think it was worth it."

Marquis Meyer got two more documents.

One is "Number of dead in territorial mine" and the other is "production of territorial mine".

Since Cardinal Georgis started making healing drugs, the death toll has risen at a dash, but mine production has not increased at all.

Furthermore, if Cardinal Georgis's production of healing drugs decreases, the number of deaths will only decrease at that time.

"I see. Obviously, we don't use humans as material."

"Well, do you think so too ... But if you do, there is one question .... Can you answer that?"

"What question?"

"I got the healing drug sold by Cardinal Georgis and analyzed the ingredients. The ingredients inside were just like normal healing drugs. Of course, there were no human-derived ingredients."

"... Oh, that's right. Even if you're using" human as a material, "you don't mean to grind it and put it in medicine. Just mass production. "

There are several ways to get Bradonna grass in large quantities.

What I use is a peaceful method that uses fermented monsters and Atlantic beans ... if you use human life, there are easier ways.

Well, considering how difficult it is to procure "A Man Who Can Die," it's better to use the method I'm doing.

"Mass production of bradonna grass ... is that possible?"

"Oh ... have you heard the name" Rite of Blood Stone "?"

"This is my first name. What kind of ceremony is it?"

"It's a ritual to sacrifice a living person to the evil spirits. The evil spirits leave a magic catalyst called" Blood Stones "in exchange for sacrifice. At that time, a large amount of bradonna around the place where the ritual was performed The grass grows, and probably Cardinal Georgis uses it to make medicines. "

Bradonna grass grows in this way only shortly after the ceremony.

Therefore, it is a very inefficient way to procure large quantities of bradonna grass.

Nevertheless, in this world where the value of healing drugs is very high, it may be worth doing.
