Chapter 135: Master Alchemist

Jason came in the afternoon as Ward called him to settle the loot stored in his subspace. The problem was that—ev after the Void Prison Realm used up a good part of the loot in altering his psyche—there was just too much stuff to be transported easily.

In the d, they decided Ward would deliver them to a storehouse in Jason's name from where Jason would take care of them. But before that, they needed to take care of the esstials like beast cores and hearts. Ev for that, they couldn't do it in some normal place like in their rooms.

However, before all that, Ward needed to show something.

"This is..." Jason's eyes wided like saucers as he laid eyes upon the boulder-sized egg. A dangerous aura of power radiated from the egg, insisting on a cautionary approach to deal with this.

"Probably the dungeon boss, or her offspring," Ward said.

"Is this the thing that caused the chaos inside the dungeon?" Jason asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Probably," Ward laughed, "though I did have to poke my blade into a few of them to wake them up from their slumber."

Jason showed an expression that said he didn't know what to say.

"Regardless, I plan on making an omelette with this, unless you have something better in mind."

Jason rubbed his forehead. "Ward, this is an embryo form of a silver-ranked fire-attribute creature, which is only below a full-fledged fire dragon. Do you know how valuable this is?"

Ward shrugged. "How much is it worth in essce gems do you think?"

Unfortunately, it wasn't so easy to get their hands on a rowned potion maker.

"I hate to admit it, but without my father, I have no connection with any rowned potion maker," he said. "Not to mtion, this type of potion is something only a Master Alchemist can brew."

There was also the issue of paying the alchemist, as the ingredits were merely a part of it.

"Can the people of Dragonforge find us an alchemist if I signed with them?" Ward asked. His circle of recognition was very narrow, though not without quality.

"They could, considering they have alchemists in their numbers," Jason said, contemplating. "Still, A master Alchemist is not something you can get your hands on easily. Well, you'll probably have to wait months. Any other source I come up with will take ev longer."

Ward groaned. Perhaps he should check out Alchemy to see if he had any expertise in it as well. Well, considering how foreign he felt, ev in mtioning terms of alchemy, he didn't think that was the case.

"The fastest way is still possible, selling half of these hearts into an auction," Jason said, "and asking for the buyers to look for an alchemist."

"Something like can work?" Ward felt it was farfetched.

"It's hard, but I have se it working, considering many of the buyers of such items were alchemists themselves," Jason said. Th something clicked in him as he remembered something. "I forgot to add Professor June might have some expertise in Alchemy. I don't think she's a master alchemist, though..."

Ward raised an eyebrow, the first time hearing about this. He remembered all the potions she fed him in the phantom accursed valley, they were likely made by her. Well, he could just ask her.

With that thought, he brought out the Communication Orb and called her. June had left him with this, considering he would leave for the front lines in a few days, and only through this they could talk.

Unfortunately, as Jason said, June wasn't a Master Alchemist. She only took it as a hobby. Well, considering she was at Adept level already while taking it as a hobby, many aspiring alchemists might cough blood hearing about it.
