Chapter 84 Misunderstanding
"What did you say? Please say it again, Knight!" The woman in the window asked hesitantly after being surprised.
Locke looked at the woman in the window strangely. Didn’t she know this kind of potion?
Yoshak looked even more confused. He didn't remember that there was such a potion here at the headquarters of the Corps.
"Johnson potion, thank you!" Locke said again.
This time the woman understood, and saw her panic shaking the bell on her left hand, and said to Locke in front of her, "Please wait for a while, Knight."
Locke looked at the woman's actions curiously, not sure what she was selling. Soon, he knew.
A team of fully armed soldiers surrounded him and Yosak. The leader, wearing all the armor, put a lot of pressure on Locke.
This is a mid-level attendant who can serve as the captain of the squad in the Second Corps like Baron Kaidozi.
Facing the strong man who was two levels higher than him, Locke and Yosak had no other choice except holding their heads and standing by, because this is the logistics department of the Second Corps of the Eagle Legion. There may be any misunderstandings here, Locke guessed.
He had never expected that the name of just a potion would cause such a big noise.
In the dark and quiet little dark room, Locke was tortured by both hands and fixed on a stone chair. In front of him, there was a knight with only his head exposed, a red hair and full of armor, and a non-commissioned officer holding a notebook and looking like a clerk.
Uncle Yoshak was taken to another room and was not with Locke.
"Speak quickly! Where did you hear the name 'Johnson Potion'?" The red-haired man slapped the table with the scabbard of his sword and asked Locke. This man was the mid-level attendant who caught Locke.
"It was someone else told me." Locke replied.
"Who is it?" The red-haired man opened his eyes wide and looked at Locke. It made people think of a wild beast that chose people to eat.
Locke was silent. He didn't know whether to say Angelina's name. Whether it was the Baron or Prince Kensel who had met him, he had given him a confidential order. Should the situation be said now? Locke was in a dilemma.
"Finished!" The non-commissioned officer next to him suddenly said, while flipping through the files in his hand, he dictated, "Locke, a civilian, is currently the deputy squadron leader of the Fourth Squadron of the Second Battalion of the Second Corps of the Foster Eagle Corps."
The red-haired man glanced at Locke and said casually, "It's not the squadron leader, and I can't come here to exchange potions."
The clerk continued: "A month ago disappeared in the Bering Mountains, where their captain, Baron Kaidozi's handwriting confirmed his handwriting."
"Oh?" The red-haired man became a little interested. It seemed that he had caught a big fish this time.
They are the garrison troops of the Corps Logistics Department and were specially sent here to deal with emergencies. Today, when Casa was on duty in the camp, someone suddenly reported that a soldier was coming to exchange for the "Johnson Potion". It's a hell. The logistics department of the Second Corps Logistics Department all exchanged for potions that stimulate potential or temporarily recover wounds. How could there be a precious potion like "Johnson Potion" that belongs to the nobles?
Kasa is a noble knight, but he is just a knight. He may only be able to exchange for a bottle of "Johnson potion" for the rest of his life. This is not a matter of money, but achievements and military merits. This precious potion that helps break through the bottleneck is only in the hands of some powerful nobles. Not to mention potion, no one knows the formula of the potion.
Perhaps it was Locke's identity as a civilian, which further confirmed this point. Kasa did not believe that he was just an entry-level attendant, and he was also a civilian, and he had the opportunity to hear about this kind of potion.
"Tell me, who sent you here? You traitor!" Kasa pulled the sword out of the scabbard, pointed the sword tip at Locke's lower handle frivolously, and a trace of blood flowed out of Locke's pierced skin.
Lock felt the threat of death. Not to mention that he was tortured to death on both hands and feet, even if he was let go of his posture, he could not beat the red-haired man with the strength of a mid-level attendant. It can be seen from the calloused hands and blood-stained eyes that this guy killed a lot of people.
The dangerous warning signs in his heart became more and more intense. Just as Locke was about to confess and tell the truth, "Stop!" With a thick voice, the fat man, as big as two fat pigs, kicked open the door of the small dark room. Then, a hurricane formed by fighting spirit slapped at the red-haired man.
The red-haired man was caught off guard and forced backwards by the fighting hurricane, and even the long sword in his hand fell to the ground.
The moment he saw the person coming at the door, Locke breathed a sigh of relief and was safe. There were two people behind the fat man, one of whom was Baron Kaidozi...
The final outcome was a misunderstanding. The deeds of Rocke's rescue of the princess have only been circulated among the top leaders and have not been circulated among the lower-level non-commissioned officers. The situation of Rocke's return was also the case that Baron Kaidozi had just reported to the Ministry of War.
The squadron leader who was awarded the Fighting Qi Gong method is qualified to record and enter the archives in the Forstan military.
Johnson's potion is an extremely precious potion among the nobles. It is very likely that some non-combats aristocrats didn't know that there was such a potion. Locke, a civilian-born, asked for such potion. No wonder he was noticed by the people from the Logistics Department of the Ministry of War and was arrested. Moreover, Locke's file was still a "missed" population.
The fat man finally untied Locke himself and sent Locke out. Of course, Locke recognized the fat man who seemed to be harmless and had an amazing tonnage. He was the leader of their corps. When Locke was just a soldier, he saw this fat man from afar.
This fat man did not have the demeanor and domineeringness of a corps commander. He squinted his eyes and smiled at Locke throughout the whole process, which really made Locke flattered. Who would have thought that a corps commander and a big man with a title of Count would be so polite to him and a civilian.
Baron Kaidozi said a few words from time to time. Today, the commander of the corps arrived in time, thanks to Baron Kaidozi's discovery. Locke and Yosak have been out for so long. Dinner time has passed and have not come back yet, so something is probably happening.
There is such an advantage to have been eating with the squadron leader. Baron Kaidozi can know which squadron leader is moving in time.
After walking out of the locked black room and taking Yoshak out of another black room, their corps commander asked about Locke's purpose.
In fact, he had known what Locke was here for a long time. Even why Locke was locked up had already figured out for such a long time. As for why he was too lazy to do so, he said so specifically, of course, to compensate. People who can stand at such a high position do everything they do after careful consideration.
To a person like him, a few insignificant potions came to harvest the favor of a soldier who had saved the princess and was appreciated by the prince and Marquis Mamen, in his opinion, it was extremely cost-effective.
"Well... I want 'Johnson potion'." Rock said.
The fat corps commander frowned and it turned out to be this kind of potion. No wonder Locke was arrested. Even if he was the head of the logistics department, he would arrest Locke. This potion was only circulated in Fostertan's upper nobles. Because of the extremely weak side effects and sequelae, it was sought after by a large number of noble knights.
"How many units do you want?" The fat corps commander asked Locke with a smile.
"Uh..." Angelina didn't tell Lock how much this potion should be taken at one time, but just said that this potion was suitable for him.
"The more, the better." Locke gave an ambiguous answer and kicked the ball to their corps commander.
Since he decided to make friends with Locke, the Fatty Corps Commander would not care about the price he paid. He turned around and asked a follower behind him, "How many 'Johnson potions' are there in the logistics department now?"
This follower should be the same as the adjutant of the Fatty Corps, because he had just arrived to rescue Locke with Baron Kaidozi and the Fatty Corps.
The adjutant took out a small book he carried with him and searched it. The storage and access of this precious potion will be registered with him, so there is a special notepad record.
"There are five more!" The clerk gave an accurate answer.
"Give this knight three!" said the fat corps commander. He was about to bleed heavily.
Lock felt like he had picked up a big advantage. There were only five of these potions in the entire Second Corps, which showed its preciousness. Now he has got three of them!
"Thank you, Commander of the Corps!" Locke didn't know what the fat Corps commander was named, so he could only use the title of the position representative to express his gratitude.
"My name is George, just call me Lord George." The Fatty Corps Commander waved his hand and said in a pun, "Don't be grateful to me, this is what you deserve." I don't know if Locke deserved to save the princess, or if the Fatty Corps Commander compensated him for what he deserved after being misunderstood.
"Thank you, Mr. George!" Locke thanked.
Baron Kaidozi, who was standing beside him, looked strange and looked at Locke with a look of envy, as if he had picked up some big bargain.
While waiting for the soldiers to get the potion for Locke, the Fat Corps Commander, or could be called Lord George, began to chat with Locke and Baron Kaidozi. During the chat, the Fat Corps Commander asked whether he was joking or chatting about what else Locke needed. Locke remembered another potion that Angelina recommended to him.
"How about the Will Condensation Potion?" Locke said.
This time he asked for it without opening his mouth. Looking at the faces of Baron Kaidozi and the Fatty Corps Commander, you can tell that the three "Johnson Potions" he was about to get were such an unavailable good thing. If you want it, you will be ungrateful and you will still have the price of Locke.
"Uh..." When the fat corps commander heard this, his legs became weak.
Fortunately, Locke didn't talk about this potion first. If he had to talk about it, there would be no more things to do later. The people in the Corps Logistics Department had definitely never heard of this potion. Only the commander of the Corps knew that there was such a potion.
