Should he continue the trade?From a purely profit-driven perspective, yes. The Collector's items are unobtainable on the market. But Yang Yi is reluctant to part with Suna's potions. The words "An original creation by the witch Suna" in their descriptions make him uneasy. Initially, he worried someone might covet the recipes, but after seeing her stat panel, he's certain that a witch selling potions would attract major trouble. Everything about her, from her talents to her gear, screams that she needs to lay low. He remembers the witch Ronette, captured by the Radiant Holy Cult. He doesn't want to sell the potions, not even with just a name on them. After all, the Nyxstar itself has an ability to search for players by name. It's not a stretch to think the Radiant Holy Cult has a similar spell specifically for hunting witches.He remains silent for a moment, then asks the Collector a question in the common tongue. "What do you plan to do with these potions?"The Collector, though silent, understands. Its empty hood cocks to the side, a gesture like a curious head tilt. It then uses a sharp, bony finger to etch two words into the deck: "To collect."Yang Yi feels foolish. He just asked a Collector what it does with its collection. But the confirmation eases his worries; it won't be trading them to other players. He hands over a regeneration potion. The trade attempt drops to 5."Wait for me," Yang Yi says, standing up. "I have many more similar items."The Collector nods, writing on the deck again: "Before dawn."He has three and a half hours. It's enough time. He needs to find Suna. He uses his third eye to keep the Collector in view as he heads [N O V E L I G H T] to her room, bumping into her as she comes out, already geared up. The commotion woke her."What happened?" she asks.He shushes her, pulling her into the room. They switch to the chat system. He quickly explains everything, and she immediately refutes any involvement."The Collector wasn't summoned by me!" she types."I know! The player selling that keepsake is dead, most likely died in a trade with a Collector. But the one we've encountered is different. There are many kinds, with different preferences…" He tells her what he's discovered, emphasizing its interest in potions. "Do you have any others? We can try to trade for everything it has. It's got a potion that restores mana!"He sends her the item info. Her red eyes light up. She's interested not just in the potion, but in the Collector itself. Its body would be of immense research value."Suna?" Yang Yi says, snapping her out of her thoughts."I have some potions here, but others need to be prepared. You'll have to help me," she replies. She pulls a familiar, colorless, fluorescent potion from her nightstand, followed by a packet of the werewolf powder. "I can make the sleeping potion if you get me some holy water. The crimson potion is impossible." She adds, "And I don't think it likes potions, specifically. I think it likes unique or rare items."That makes sense. Counting the stimulant, sleeping, and werewolf potions, that leaves two trade attempts."There's a prototype we can give it, but it requires your assistance," she adds. "I need your blood. You're a werewolf with a flammable constitution. You're more special than you think.""Fine," he agrees. That's one more potion, leaving one final attempt. He already has an idea for that.He messages Zhou Dai, who is surprisingly awake, and buys ten bottles of holy water for 1500 coins each. After the trade, she sends a strange message."Yang Yi, do you think Brain-eaters are evil creatures?"He remembers his conversation with Ronette. "It depends on the individual," he replies. "Evil and justice aren't so easily defined."She sends a cryptic "thank you."He gives the holy water to Suna. In the lab, she draws a vial of his blood and immediately begins her work. He isn't idle either. He has her explain the process for crafting the crystal armor, then has her create a special mold.
