Chapter 298-Alchemy Emperor
Dave let out a sigh of relief as he witnessed the old man's demise from his powerful attack. He realized that many of his skills were ineffective against the old man due to the buffs he gained from the pills. It became clear to Dave that physical damage was the only way to defeat him.
ƥandasnovel.com As Dave kept track of the time, he felt fortunate that he managed to defeat the old man within 9 minutes and 45 seconds. If the battle had lasted the full 10 minutes, all their efforts would have been wasted, and they would have been forced to restart the level.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing Level 70]
[Reward: Alchemy Emperor Eldrich, Knowledge and experience of Alchemy Emperor Eldrich]
Dave was astonished by the rewards. He had expected to subdue the old man and recruit him as a subordinate, but he never anticipated receiving the knowledge and attainment of the Alchemy Emperor Eldrich so easily.
[Ding! Prepare for an intense transmission of knowledge]
Dave was caught off guard as the system sent a torrent of information directly into his mind. The influx of knowledge left him feeling dizzy, but he endured the pain.
[Ding! Completed]
Dave opened his eyes and found himself filled with an abundance of knowledge. He felt as if his mind had matured and expanded.
"What a surprise," Dave murmured to himself.
He noticed that his intelligence and soul powers had soared to another level, with his soul powers being multiplied by three times.
Dave then turned his gaze toward the shining light, and Eldrich, the old man, appeared before him, kneeling in reverence.
"Master," Eldrich spoke, acknowledging Dave as his superior.
Dave's delight was evident, finally having a loyal subordinate who possessed the skills of an Alchemy Emperor. The title of an Alchemy Emperor held great significance, and had it not been for the knowledge he gained, Dave might have hesitated to accept the old man as his subordinate due to his vast knowledge.
Flamy appeared shocked by the turn of events, while Xegron remained calm, having witnessed Flamy's similar transformation.
"Master," Flamy addressed Dave, who smiled back at him and said, "Well, he is now part of the team. You better get along with your old acquaintance."
Flamy felt a chill run down his spine, but seeing his master successfully subdue the Alchemy Emperor, he decided to postpone seeking revenge for another time when their master wasn't present.
Dave engaged in conversation with Eldrich, discovering that the old man's memories were also vague and incomplete. Eldrich revealed that he belonged to the now-extinct High Elven Race, eradicated by the demons. However, some remnants of the race had managed to escape, though their current whereabouts remained unknown to Eldrich.
Eldrich, as one of the ancestors of the elven race, was highly respected due to his alchemical knowledge. He had formed connections with many powerful individuals, deterring those who might try to offend him. Unfortunately, this made him a target for the Demon King of Envy, who sought to seize his pills and enslave him.
Eldrich didn't recall the details of what transpired next, but he remembered choosing to self-destruct rather than be used by the demon to strengthen their own race, which had already decimated his beloved High Elven Race.
.........
"Eldrich, why don't you give your master a present?" Dave beamed with excitement, his eyes shining brightly.
Eldrich returned the smile and replied, "Master, I lost some of my Star Level Pills when I chose to self-destruct, but I still have some Sun Level Pills with me."
He explained that the pills were categorized into Moon, Sun, and Star levels, each with nine sub-levels.
Dave felt a bit disappointed at first, but his spirits lifted when he heard Eldrich's next words.
"I have five Sun Pills here, and all of them are at level 9."
Eldrich continued, introducing the various pills to Dave, who listened intently.
"This one is the Invisibility Pill, capable of hiding you from any True Saint and those below, for a duration of one hour."
"Next, we have the Exploding Pill, which can make your strength explode for an hour, effectively doubling your power."
"Here are two Wood Healing Pills; they can instantly heal any external or internal wounds."
"And finally, the Body Strengthening Pill. This one is quite challenging to concoct for any ordinary alchemist, but it provides great benefits for every cultivator, enhancing their physical strength. Moreover, it can be used infinitely without any side effects. However, it's ineffective for those at the Imperial Saint level and above."
Dave's delight was evident, especially at the prospect of having the Body Strengthening Pills for his subordinates. He could create a formidable army with such enhancements. As for the Wood Healing Pills, they would be a boon for his healing needs, sparing him from waiting for his eyes to heal. The other pills would be reserved for future use if necessary.
"Haha, excellent job, Eldrich! Don't worry, just send me a list of ingredients, and I'll command Ronin and his gang to collect them for you," Dave assured.
Eldrich nodded confidently and replied, "Don't worry, Master. I will create many pills for the army."
Dave had shared his plans of forming a strong army with Eldrich, who had wholeheartedly accepted and embraced the idea.
"Master, may I have Flamy as my assistant?" Eldrich requested, causing Flamy to feel uneasy. "What are you planning, you old bastard? I haven't even had my revenge on you for capturing me before," Flamy retorted with fear.
Eldrich smiled in response, "Ah, I remember now. You are that annoying flame who escaped from my lab."
Dave patted Eldrich's shoulders approvingly and said, "Do as you wish."
Though he didn't want the annoying Flamy near him, Dave recognized Flamy's value. Eldrich explained that with Flamy's assistance, the pills he created would have a higher effect and grade due to Flamy's unique properties.
