Chapter 9: Materials Obtained

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Time passed day by day. Mas, who no longer had any alchemy materials to waste, could only hide on the top of the Alchemy Tower and read the alchemy notes left behind by the first Alchemy Tower Master.

Although he did not think that the other party’s alchemy attainments were high, there were still many things that were worth learning from a layman like him.

Mas kept reading with relish.

Time passed quickly. On the afternoon of the fourth day, Anthony finally arrived with the alchemy materials.

Together with Anthony, there were more than a thousand mages and more than three hundred knights.

Mas stood next to the window on the highest floor of the Alchemy Tower and frowned when he saw Mage Anthony arrive with a legion of a thousand mages.

If it were an ordinary person like Swoks, they would have been scared out of their wits.

Why would they need so many people to escort several carts of alchemy materials? Take bandits for example. Which idiot would rush to rob a material cart with the royal flag on it? Were they tired of living?

Moreover, most of the mages who came with him were wearing green magic robes. It was obvious that they were all wind-type mages. The Storm Empire did not trust him. They were afraid that he would be like Swoks, so they had a thousand wind-type mages wait outside to prevent him from fleeing after taking the money.

After all, the alchemy materials were worth 1.5 million, which was equivalent to the tax revenue of the Storm Empire for more than a month. If such a huge sum of money disappeared without a trace, it would only make things worse for the current Storm Empire. It was probably the last straw that broke the camel’s back.

“Master Mas, are you still here?” Anthony walked out of the Alchemy Tower and asked loudly.

“It’s been a few days since we last met. Are you my dear Mage Anthony? Did you bring the alchemy materials I need?”

“I’ve brought all the necessary alchemy materials, but the other advanced alchemical materials are too rare, so I didn’t collect much. However, I did a rough count. The alchemical materials outside are definitely worth 1.5 million gold coins, you can rest assure about that!”

Upon hearing Anthony’s respectful response, Mas smiled. ‘Very good, I’ll make you my first stepping stone in this world!’

“I’ll open the door to the Alchemy Tower now. You can just tell them to place the materials on the first floor of the Alchemy Tower!” Mas said slowly.

After that, Mage Anthony immediately instructed the knights to carefully move the alchemy materials into the first floor of the Alchemy Tower.

After the knights finally released the last piece of material, Mas used his mind to close the door of the Alchemy Tower. Then, he immediately teleported to the first floor and stored the alchemy materials into the alchemy space.

Facing the group of people outside who were eyeing him covetously, Mas was not afraid. If the other party suddenly barged in, he could rely on this Red Crystal Magic Gargoyle to escape unscathed.

“Master Mas, how long will it take for you to hand over those ten Red Crystal Gargoyles to me?” Anthony hurriedly asked when he saw the tightly shut door of the Alchemy Tower.

In fact, Mas could finish all the Red Crystal Gargoyles in an instant, but that would be too strange. He gave a compromise time based on the alchemy time and success rate that Swoks usually needed and said slowly, I should be able to finish the refinement within three days.”

“Then we will await your good news, Master Mas.” Mage Anthony smiled and led his troops to camp nearby.

Mas stood by the window and looked at the people who were setting up camp. He smiled and did not pay much attention to them. He knew that they did not trust him. After all, it was a huge sum of money. However, such a blatant supervisory made him feel uncomfortable.

Mas stopped thinking about it and began to carefully count the materials that Mage Anthony had given him. There was not a single seven-star material that he had begged for. He was not too depressed about this outcome. He had thought about it long ago. After all, treasures like the claws of the behemoths and the golden dragon scales that were undamaged were basically rare.

However, there were only four six-star materials. What a pity.

The Venomous Sting of the Underground Scorpion, the Blood of the Elf Race’s Azure Dragon, the Hundred-year-old Ice Crystals of the Tower Race, and the Scales of the Terror Lizard.

The effect of the Sting of the Underground Scorpion was similar to Hydra’s Saliva, but with a little more, the paralysis effect was even stronger.

The Blood of an Azure Dragon sounded like a rare treasure just by its name. It could increase the resistance of alchemical creatures, as well as the affinity of a dragon and the majesty of a dragon. After all, there was no trash that was associated with the word “dragon”.

The Hundred-year-old Ice Crystal was a very rare item of the frost attribute.

The Scales of the Terror Lizard were so complete that it could be considered an enhanced version of the Unicorn’s Young Horn. It could greatly increase the physical defense of alchemical creatures, and it also had petrification properties. It could petrify the places where enemies touched the leather armor.

Just these four materials alone had a combined value of no less than 500,000 gold coins. From this, it could be seen how much money was needed for alchemy.

The remaining one million alchemy materials were the five-star earth-type magic crystal cores required for the refinement of the Red Crystal Gargoyle.

In order to confuse others and not let others know the true alchemy formula of the Gargoyle, Mas specially asked for dozens of other three-star and four-star alchemy ingredients.

In this way, even if other alchemists tried according to their own formulas, they would still need thousands of experiments to make their own Gargoyles. This could also be considered as a way to save himself.

No one could guarantee that there might be a powerful alchemist in the Storm Empire. What if others guessed the alchemical materials needed based on the attributes of the Gargoyles? It was better to be safe than sorry. Mas could not lose his life by one move.

He could not allow someone else to learn his unique alchemy skills.

Now that he had the materials, Mas began the refinement.

The 30 sets of alchemical materials were slowly placed on the Creator’s Alchemy Platform. In less than half an hour, 30 Red Crystal Gargoyles of the same craft were completed.

Mas put all the Red Crystal Gargoyles into the alchemy space and took out other alchemy materials.. He began to figure out the adaptability of these materials and what kind of alchemical creatures could be created.
