Chapter 82

At this moment, the mood of the entire Meng family was quite good. The successful alchemy conference and the subsequent large number of orders had lifted the recent gloom from the Meng family. Even Meng, who usually never smiled, showed a rare hint of a smile, and even Mason, who used to be a headache, now seemed much more tolerable.

Meng's mood was indeed quite good...

In the past period, the Meng family had encountered nothing but setbacks. They failed to secure the house left by Rog Merlin, and they also failed to obtain the Red Flame Fish Oil that Solan had specifically requested. That was bad enough, but then the rise of the Gilded Rose and the closure of the Double Moon's Radiance on Triumph Street almost made things spiral out of control.

Fortunately, Solan, far away in the Black Tower, once again helped the Meng family.

Solan personally persuaded the Black Tower Council, allowing the Meng family to obtain advanced alchemy technology and the full support of two great alchemists.

Thus, the Void Potion and the Frenzied Blood Potion were created.

The appearance of these two new alchemy potions directly reversed the unfavorable situation of the Meng family. It had been less than a day since the alchemy conference ended, and orders were already pouring into the Double Moon's Radiance. Just a little while ago, the leaders of several major mercenary groups in Thousand Sails City had come to visit, showing great interest in the two new alchemy potions.

Combined, these major mercenary groups had thousands to tens of thousands of mercenaries, and the amount of alchemy items they consumed annually could be described as astronomical. As long as the Meng family could secure the orders from these major mercenary groups, the Double Moon's Radiance would be invincible.

The only regret for Meng was that these major mercenary groups did not include the Silver Moon Mercenary Group...

But Meng was not in a hurry...

Once the effects of the Void Potion and the Frenzied Blood Potion were confirmed, the Silver Moon Mercenary Group would undoubtedly abandon the Gilded Rose without hesitation.

This was the advantage brought by advanced technology. The instant physical damage immunity provided by the Void Potion and the temporary berserk effect provided by the Frenzied Blood Potion could directly enhance a mercenary group's combat power. In comparison, the Gilded Rose was far inferior. The alchemy potions they possessed were several levels below the Void Potion and the Frenzied Blood Potion in terms of effectiveness.

It didn't matter if Sasse didn't know; just compare them, and the difference would be clear.

As for how to compare...

Since we are all in the same industry, wouldn't it be fine to exchange some technical knowledge?

"Ryen, go and invite Great Alchemist Hawking."

The Black Tower had sent two great alchemists, but most of the time, Meng dealt with Great Alchemist Hawking. Meng knew that Hawking had been aligning himself with Solan, and since coming to the Meng family, he had secretly helped Meng a lot.

As for the other one, Rave, he was more formal and official...

It was said that this was because his backer in the Black Tower Council was opposed to Solan. Therefore, although he had to serve the Meng family due to orders, most of the time, Meng felt that Rave was just going through the motions.

So, to engage in an exchange with the Gilded Rose, it was better to have Great Alchemist Hawking handle it.

...

In the following days, Lin Yun continued to study the stone tablet.

Lin Yun knew that his understanding of the stone tablet was still very limited, not even scratching the surface. This was a component of True Spirit level or higher, and the True Spirit level was a concept where the embodiment's power was comparable to that of a named Archmage, known as the ultimate creation of alchemy.

However, currently, Lin Yun's use of the stone tablet was limited to improving the efficiency of the magic array, and he couldn't even manifest the embodiment. This level of use was far from scratching the surface.

But Lin Yun was not in a hurry. Whether it was a magic artifact or a component, once it reached the True Spirit level or higher, it could be said to contain infinite mysteries. Even a thousand years later, the luck-defying Grand Mage of the Cloud Tower, after obtaining the True Spirit magic artifact in the Prince's Tomb, spent over a hundred years to fully master it.

Lin Yun did not have that kind of luck...

So now, Lin Yun only hoped to understand the stone tablet a little more. Even a tiny bit more understanding could greatly enhance his combat power. Perhaps this little bit of understanding would be the key to turning the tide in a critical moment.

For a whole week, Lin Yun was completely immersed in the study of the stone tablet.

Lin Yun didn't even know that Farrow had already copied the Angel Potion and had pulled Haus into the alchemy laboratory, where they spent a whole week without leaving.

"Control the temperature, control the temperature! How many times have I told you to control the temperature of the flame? I don't know how you became an alchemist!" Farrow, who had entered the alchemy laboratory, was much more irritable than usual. He was nervously operating at the alchemy table while berating the sweating Haus.

"Sorry, Alchemist Farrow, I didn't mean to!" Haus, wiping the sweat from his forehead, was frantically operating the crucible. Four crucibles were lined up on the alchemy table, and each operation left Haus breathless.

After a full hour, forty bottles of Dragon Power Potion were placed on the alchemy table, and Farrow finally let out a long breath.

"Hey, you..."

"Alchemist Farrow, my name is Haus..." The poor young genius was almost in tears; he had been working here for a whole week, and Alchemist Farrow still didn't remember his name.

"Oh, Haus." Farrow rubbed his temples, looking tired, and instructed, "Go tell Remy to arrange an alchemy conference for me."

"Okay." Haus nodded and left the alchemy laboratory, but three minutes later, the young genius returned...

"What's going on? Didn't I tell you to go find Remy?"

"No, no, Alchemist Farrow, Remy sent me to tell you that a Great Alchemist from the Double Moon's Radiance has come to the Gilded Rose for a technical exchange."

"Oh?" Farrow's eyebrows immediately furrowed. Having worked at the Black Horn Auction House for so many years, how could Farrow not know what such an "exchange" meant?

"Should I inform Master Merlin?"

"No, not yet." Farrow shook his head because he knew that Grand Mage Merlin had not left his room for a week and was definitely conducting some important research. He couldn't be disturbed at this time, so it was better to check it out himself first.

"Hey, you, come with me."

"..." Haus opened his mouth, wanting to remind him again, but in the end, said nothing, just nodded and followed Farrow, looking aggrieved.
