A large airship carrying over a hundred people had just left the First Tower's City. It was already dark and normally, people would avoid traveling during this time.
However, this airship is completely different from the Floating Mystic Ship that Professor Turhan brought to the kingdom before.
It was a bit smaller in size but it is heavily equipped with massive weapons. There are two Mana Cannons and eight more artilleries. The Mana Cannon, just like its name, uses mana to power it up and fire a strong version of Mana Bullet. It uses a lot of energy stones but it is incredibly strong.
The artilleries, on the other hand, don't fire mana bullets but piercing bullets made of special alloys.
It has incredibly powerful aerial combat capabilities unlike Vincent's Vermilion Hawk with zero armaments.
As soon as the airship moved out, the people in the city noticed its movement and exclaimed in surprise.
"That's the Alchemist Union's Warship! Heavenflare!"
"Whoa~ I didn't notice it a while ago, where did they dock this huge thing?"
"There must be a Tier 5 Alchemist inside… Only those at their level can mobilize this kind of warship."
"I wonder what happened? Why did they bring a warship?"
"Oh! I heard there was a high-end auction a while ago. They must've fancied some alchemy materials…"
The crowd admired the beauty of the floating warship as they couldn't help but dream of riding one someday. Furthermore, The image of the Alchemist Union just improved in their minds after seeing this display of wealth.
At this moment, inside the Heavenflare Warship, Faviona is seated at the commander's seat within the bridge.
She wasn't doing anything aside from observing the egg in her hands, since the maneuvering of the warship is done by someone else.
Currently, there are five people inside the bridge.
"Faviona, are you really planning to hatch that thing?" Damar asked after seeing Faviona's fascination with the Runic Basilisk Egg…"
It was the first item that was auctioned off and Faviona did not bid for this at all. However, the one who won this egg is actually a member of the Alchemist Union. In exchange for a Pill Furnace and a few benefits within the union, the Alchemist offered this egg to her. Furthermore, she has a higher rank than Seia, so choosing her to make a trade was indeed a better option.
Although Faviona wasn't too interested in it, she decided to take it after recalling how tasty it can be.
"They're delicious… Especially an infant with soft bones and a nutritious body… Although it will take a lot of time to hatch this one, it will taste a lot better since I will raise it myself."
Faviona said with an endearing smile as she fixes her monocle.
Damar can only shake his head as this was her hobby. She likes eating exotic food. Even if she's already eating a poison, as long as it suits her palate, she wouldn't care at all.
"Anyway, that Vincent is really something else… I think that he had also noticed that we have a Celestial Being on our side." Damar softly said as he recalled their meeting with Vincent after the event.
"Huh? Did he notice? Well, I was more focused on his request…"
"Right… He's blind after all, it wouldn't be surprising for him to try and find a cure for it."
Apparently, Vincent did not waste his time as he decided to speak with Faviona when they approached him. Since Vincent purchased the Tier 4 Rejuvenation Pill, he received her communication crystal that he can use to request to create a pill or potion at any tier.
As long as he will be the one providing three sets of its ingredients, Faviona can concoct it for free. With such a request, there is no better than a Tier 5 Alchemist or a Grandmaster in the field to take it.
"But… why did you tell him to collect those ingredients? They don't seem to be for healing his eyes…" Damar asked curiously. Although he's not an Alchemist, he's quite familiar with the ingredients she gave to Vincent.
"When I checked his eyes, I noticed that it wasn't a disease… It was more like a seal to me. I can't remove a seal of that level but with the right potion, I can weaken it a little. It would still be up to Vincent's skill to completely remove the seal in his eyes." Faviona replied after hesitating for a bit.
She wouldn't normally talk about her diagnosis to other people but since Vincent is a special case, she decided to just let Damar know about it.
Damar was obviously shocked at this. If it's something that Faviona can't resolve, perhaps even the Tower Master may not be able to assist Vincent with his problem.
"A seal, huh… That's interesting… Who would do such a thing to him? Right, I confirmed almost all the items he traded within the auction. They all appear to be simple and lowly but they have incredible attributes… Perhaps it's related to that?"
Damar said after pondering a bit. As a Chief Artificer of the 27th Tower, his appraisal skills have already reached a very high level. Even without using his mystic abilities, he can already tell the attributes and quality of an object by just a glance.
However, his understanding of magic tools has been completely overturned by the items Vincent has presented.
What Vincent had shown seemed just like any normal items that can be found somewhere… but their durability, special attributes, and quality is completely different from what anyone would expect.
Unfortunately, he was unable to find out Vincent's secret or sources of magic tools.
He did not leave any hint about looting them in a dungeon or the magic craftsman who created them. It frustrated Damar for a little but there was nothing he could do about it. He knows that if he was in the same position, he would do the same.
"Right… I noticed that Seia's group seems to have borne some grudge toward that blind guy… Would that be fine?" Damar said as he recalled the hateful gaze thrown by a few alchemists at Vincent's group.
"Haha… That's fine… I'm not sure why they did that, but Vincent had probably noticed that as well. Anyway, he's not that weak so there's no point worrying about him… Instead, we should try and look for that Enchanted Bloodstone already.
After recalling this item, the two of them couldn't help but sigh… They have no clue where to find this item at all!
