It's worth mentioning that the Elixir of Life and the Healing Potion are two different things.

The Super Elixir of Life can instantly restore 100% of one's health, making it very useful in emergencies, and most high-level players use this type of potion.

On the other hand, the Super Healing Potion can restore 300% of one's health over thirty seconds, but because it takes effect slowly, although it restores more health, it is mostly used by tank classes. Ordinary players only use it when they are continuously losing health.

What the boss took out, however, was a Weak Healing Potion—Tang En had already seen that its quality was quite poor, only able to restore 20% of one's health.

How could he dare to call this a good item? Quality absolutely guaranteed?

Tang En shook his head inwardly, it seemed that Plandar's alchemy level was not worth relying on.

"Never mind, I don't need it, take it back."

Tang En waved his hand, not even interested in taking another look. He glanced around the shop and asked, "Do you have Whispering Flower Pollen, Blood Bat Teeth, Bitter Vine Root, and Elemental Water?"

"You're an alchemist!?"

The boss immediately became even more enthusiastic: "Except for Elemental Water, I have everything else."

Although he didn't sell the healing potion, if he could meet another alchemist, it would be even more beneficial for him.

Alchemists in Plandar were highly sought after. Only those who could finely manipulate magic could become alchemists, so most alchemists were also mages.

As everyone knows, the profession of a mage is extremely expensive, so many mages of ordinary backgrounds would occasionally make and sell alchemical potions or scrolls to earn gold for their spell research.

Unfortunately, few mages were willing to specialize in alchemy, most focusing on improving their own strength.

Tang En's eyes lit up, "Great, how much do you have?"

Tang En didn't say how much he needed, but asked how much there was in total. The boss knew at once that a big deal was coming, his spirits lifted as he took out a notebook, flipped through it, and said, "I have 240 boxes of Whispering Flower Pollen, 268 Blood Bat Teeth, and 300 Bitter Vine Roots. How much do you need?"

"What's the price?"

"Whispering Flower Pollen is 10 silver coins per box, Blood Bat Teeth is 2 silver coins each, and Bitter Vine Roots is 1 silver coin each."

Tang En did a quick mental calculation; buying everything would cost no more than 30 gold coins, too cheap!

Tang En waved his hand, "I'll take it all!"

The boss was overjoyed. These magical materials had been in stock for so long, severely affecting his cash flow. Tang En taking it all was a huge help.

"The total comes to 32 gold coins and 36 silver coins."

Tang En nodded, not immediately paying, and asked, "Do you have Gray Thistle, Light Flower, Silver Thread Flower, Black Taro Stem Powder, Flame Flower, Fish Liver Oil..."

He listed a long string of magical material names. The boss's expression alternated between excitement and melancholy. He was excited that most of what Tang En mentioned he had, but melancholic because some of the more expensive materials he didn't have in stock.

"Sir, some of what you need... I've never even heard of them..."

The boss wiped his sweat. What were things like Dragon Tongue Lily, Light Star, and Starlight Dust?

And that Angel Feather, damn, it sounds so powerful, how could a shop like mine have such things!

"Oh, right..."

Tang En came back to his senses from his excitement. He had been in Plandar for so long and had never encountered a shop selling magical materials before, so he got too excited and forgot about this.

Dragon Tongue Lily and the like were materials for crafting level 9 miracle formulas. How could a small shop like this have such rare materials?

Tang En looked regretful, he had hoped to take advantage of the opportunity to stock up, but it seemed that these high-level materials would have to be used sparingly until he found a new source.

"But I do have the others, like Gray Thistle, Light Flower, and Silver Thread Flower."

The boss wiped his sweat. He had a feeling that a very important customer had come to his shop.

"Alright, wrap up all the materials you have, I'll take them all!"

It was a rare opportunity to get low-level materials, and Tang En wouldn't let it slip by. He was counting on these materials to enhance the strength of the Elington Guard.

"No problem!"

To be able to clear out most of his inventory in one go, the boss would be smiling in his sleep.

After a long while of busying, a pile of large and small packages of materials was stacked in front of Tang En. The boss calculated the total, and Tang En's big purchase amounted to over 500 gold coins. In the end, the boss waved his hand, waiving the change, and only charged him 500 gold coins.

It was a rare big deal, and the boss was generous.

Tang En casually asked, "What's your name?"

The boss, who was grinning from ear to ear after receiving the gold coins, hurriedly said, "Owen Edgerton, sir."

Tang En looked at him in surprise, "Edgerton? Are you a noble?"

Owen smiled awkwardly, "That was a long time ago. The Edgerton family has long since declined, leaving only the surname. But fortunately, relying on the connections from the past, I can still do the business of magical materials and live a decent life."

Tang En nodded and said, "Owen, I'll leave you a list. Help me procure the materials on it. I'll come by regularly, okay?"

"Of course!"

Owen was overjoyed. This was a long-term customer, how could he refuse?

So, Tang En listed the materials needed for some basic alchemical potions. After some thought, he added a few more items, marked them, and said, "Keep an eye out for these materials below. No need to force it, just let me know if you have any news."

"Sure!"

Owen carefully put away the parchment and then remembered something, "Sir, how should I address you?"

"Call me Tang En."

"Tang En sir, I'll remember."

Although Tang En didn't give his last name, Owen didn't dare to underestimate him. Spending so many gold coins on materials and planning to buy more, this must be a highly accomplished alchemist.

For an alchemist to become a noble was too easy.

"Tang En sir, do you need me to deliver these to your residence?"

Tang En smiled, "Sure, my home is in Elington, you can deliver them for me."

Owen was stunned, "Elington? Isn't that a town in the south... This... cough, Tang En sir, don't joke with me."

It would take over ten days to deliver from Caspamir Castle!

"No joke, I'll take the materials myself."

Tang En casually waved his hand, and all the packages on the counter disappeared.

Owen sucked in a cold breath, looking at Tang En in shock, "S-Space equipment..."

Space equipment, what was that? It was a symbol of wealth, power, and status, only the wealthiest, nobles, and enlightened ones could obtain space equipment!

Even if the space equipment had only a tiny bit of space, its value was enough to drive most nobles and adventurers mad!

This Tang En actually had space equipment!?

He was definitely not an ordinary person!

Perhaps, this was a deeply hidden alchemy master!

Owen bowed deeply, his attitude even more respectful and cautious, filled with regret.

If he had known Tang En was an alchemy master, he would have given him the materials for free!

Just by befriending this alchemy master, making money would be a breeze. A simple potion could earn thousands or even tens of thousands of gold coins!

But it was too late to regret. Tang En had already paid him, and now he could only hope to build a good relationship in future transactions.

Tang En was satisfied with Owen.

He deliberately exposed his "space equipment" to see Owen's character and whether he could be a long-term partner. The result was quite good.

If Owen had shown greed, Tang En would have killed him without hesitation.

Tang En said coolly, "Some things you know are just for you, don't talk too much, understand?"

Owen said a bit nervously, "I understand, sir!"

"I won't treat you badly for working for me. Here, sell this bottle of Elixir of Life. Set the price yourself, and keep the money until I come for materials next time."

Tang En casually threw a bottle of Super Healing Potion to Owen.

Elixir of Life?

Owen was stunned.

He said... this is an Elixir of Life!?

The difficulty of crafting an Elixir of Life is many times greater than that of a Healing Potion. Even Master Howard couldn't guarantee a successful rate!

This sir, casually took out a bottle!?

Owen carefully took out a detection device, crafted by Master Howard, specifically for testing the purity and magic content of potions.

When the probe of the detection device was inserted into the Elixir of Life, the crystal on the device instantly emitted a blinding red light, followed by a loud explosion, and the device exploded!

Owen's eyes widened in shock, staring at the crystal-clear bottle in his hand, unable to believe it.

"This, this isn't just an Elixir of Life! This, this is clearly the Blood of the Goddess!"

Only the highest-quality Elixir of Life could be called the Blood of the Goddess. This was not just a symbolic name but a straightforward and simple praise of its effect.

Only the blood of the goddess could instantly heal all wounds and bring one back to life!

Owen was overjoyed, unable to describe his feelings!

Suddenly, his expression changed, and he cautiously looked around, then carefully put the Blood of the Goddess in an inconspicuous box.

This bottle of Blood of the Goddess would become his shop's treasure!

Tang En looked at Owen speechlessly, why do people want to drink menstrual blood so much?

"Boss Owen! I'm back!"

At this moment, someone suddenly rushed into the shop. ===PS: Vote, vote, vote! No killing if you vote!
