727 New alchemy apprentice
"You mean the divine temple is somehow related to everything that is going on?" Alex couldn't believe it.
"Well, at least they should be the ones who arrested this draconian princess." Liam was about 70% sure of this. "In any case, I need you to return back to the Northern Empire and ask around about this. Not now, but once I give you the signal."
"Ok." Alex nodded. "I will be leaving then. I also have to do some garrison stuff for the beast siege event."
The tanks they used for the guild battle were slightly damaged. Now she needed to figure out how to repair them by using the garrison blueprints or borrow some skilled workers from the garrison.
Liam frowned. He did not like this beast siege event because he couldn't gauge just how important it was. However, based on the information they had received from Madan, even he did not risk ignoring it. "Good luck. It is a good chance to level at the least, so let's do our best."
"Will you be joining us?"
Unexpectedly, Liam shook his head. "Sorry. I still have some important things left to take care of."
"More important than getting the governing rights of a kingdom?" Alex raised her brow.
Liam could only bitterly smile. He would explain it to her if he knew more about it. Instead, he asked her to open her trade window, and five more vials of Body Cleansing Elixir appeared instantly.
"What? When? I mean, how did you manage to do this?" Alex was shocked.
Mei Mei and Shen Yue had already used this Body Cleansing Elixir and stepped into the next stage of the game. So she was well aware of exactly how godly this elixir was.
Both Shen Yue and Mei Mei had undergone a complete transformation. Even she, as a woman, couldn't help but continue staring at Shen Yue until she turned off her charm.
Though Mei Mei didn't outwardly have any such response, her stats and combat abilities had exponentially exploded after taking the elixir.
Making a godly elixir like this couldn't be easy. In fact, the so-called Alchemy Grandmaster roaming around the streets of Gresh Kingdom would jizz in his pants if he knew something like this existed.
Foolish idiots were boasting around loudly and giving interviews on TV when they were really frogs in a well who knew nothing.
But what Alex did not understand was that Liam was clearly busy with other things, so how did he manage to make these elixirs as well?
"Hello. Earth to Alex?" Liam snapped his fingers to get her attention. "What are you staring at? Quickly accept it. Make sure everyone breaks through to level 50 and forms the mana core before the beast siege. That should help you guys win the event."
"I will soon send you guys some more elixir. I have a new secret production method, so there should be more of these now."
"Ok." Alex nodded. She wanted to ask what the secret was but decided against it. She did not want to pry too much. She silently took out a few scrolls from her inventory and gave them to Liam. "I purchased the teleportation scrolls that you told me about."
"Oh?" Liam quickly accepted it.
With this, his travel time was going to be a lot more efficient. Unlike in kingdoms, the Empire had some special items that were very useful, one of which is this return scroll. A player can use this scroll to teleport to the Empire from almost anywhere.
He did not know if it would work from the nether realm, as no one had the opportunity to test that out in his last life, but he knew for sure it would work from anywhere within the Xion realm.
At least he didn't have to drag himself all the way through barbarian territory again. "This will save me a lot of time. Thanks."
After that, Alex bid farewell and quickly left the area by using one of the same return scrolls, and Liam went back to doing what he had been doing before she got here.
He made himself at home in the deep forests that surrounded the scorched lands. He left the undead minion Wyvern1 behind to keep an eye on the other end of the golden portal, which was about to be flooded with players from all the guilds.
Meanwhile, Liam calmly summoned the newest addition to his team. "Come out." A dark elf immediately appeared. If Alex was there, she would have recognized this dark elf in a second. It was none other than Dimitri.
But at the same time, it was not the old Dimitri. The elf no longer had the same arrogant expression as before. He stood silently in front of Liam, having already come to terms with his new reality.
All of his years and years of hard work, experience, and meticulous day and night training, sometimes without even taking a break for weeks together, everything had culminated in this, his new life.
"You know what to do." Liam grinned as he took out many sets of herbs and other ingredients.
The dark elf soul minion Dimitri obediently walked over to him and started his work with a nod. He began arranging the cauldron and all the herbs, and a few minutes later, the basic concoction for the body cleansing elixir was boiling in the cauldron.
All of his movements and his methods were impeccable, and the potion brewing proceeded without a single hitch.
Unlike Liam, Dimitri's experience with alchemy was simply too profound. Especially because the formula was already laid bare in front of him, brewing this potion was basically child's play to him.
No matter how many times Liam watched him, closely observing him, he couldn't find a single fault. He could only applaud his talent and dedication. Everything was flawless and the result was also perfect. Dimitri was a true poison master.
"Even though you were a turd when you were alive, I must say you could be my most useful minion yet." Liam chuckled in amazement.
