"Half-step Mystery, Half-step Mystery …" Eureka muttered in disbelief.
She already heard from Thewis that Angor was a half-step Mystic. She didn't know why at first, but she didn't expect this to be the reason.
Eureka didn't show any emotion on her face, but she already felt like cursing Angor in her mind.
Mystery?! Angor once touched a Mystery item?!
Countless alchemists would go crazy trying to get their hands on it. And Mystery items were something that all wizards would do anything to get their hands on.
Even a Half-step Mystic realm was far more valuable than Eureka could imagine.
Thewis continued, "Angor also has other nicknames, such as the Lionheart Bramble, because his unique symbol is a lion wrapped in thorns. Another one is the Music Box Warlock, because Angor loves to make music boxes. Last year, a tiered music box made by Angor was sold at a whopping price of 200,000 magic crystals, which broke the record for beginner-tier alchemy items."
"Besides, the music box is still causing a lot of attention. Many wizards who are interested in music are looking for Angor, hoping to know the name of the song he played in the music box. They've been sending letters to Brute Cavern, and I heard they've caused a lot of trouble. "
Eureka swallowed her saliva. A tiered music box sold for two hundred thousand magic crystals? That was insane!
Eureka didn't have 10,000 magic crystals in total.
She now understood why Angor had so many valuable potions and space storage. Even if he didn't make them himself, he could still afford them.
Brulee also mentioned that Beals, the "Whale Hunter" of Ashen Time, respected Angor because he knew who Angor was.
"There's something else that's causing a lot of trouble in the alchemy world. Angor created a high-tier alchemy item in the video." Thewis couldn't help but sigh. "He hasn't even become an official wizard yet, but he's already made a complete high-grade alchemy item. In addition, he's been in contact with Mystery before. It's almost certain that he'll become a master alchemist in the future. It's just a matter of time.
"If Forest of Time wasn't released too early, his name would've been on it already. According to my sources, as long as Angor doesn't die, he'll get a spot in the next issue of Forest of Time in ten years. "
Eureka was speechless.
The Forest of Time was the most authoritative magazine in the southern wizarding region. Eureka used to read every single one of its issues with awe in her heart. Moreover, the concepts, technologies, and latest research results recorded in each issue of "The Forest of Time" would bring new inspiration to her.
She could not believe her ears when she was told that Angor was going to appear in the next issue of Forest of Time.
Eureka looked at Angor with a complicated expression.
Since Angor returned to Padt Manor, she had been keeping an eye on him, but she did not notice anything out of the ordinary. Angor never told her that he was an alchemist.
Eureka gritted her teeth as she thought of something. "Is he trying to hide it from us?"
"What do you mean?" Thewis sent a Voice Transmission to Eureka.
Eureka gave Angor a vicious glare and told him everything he did in Padt Manor. She also emphasized how she asked Angor to go to Lloyds to get the materials she needed.
"He knows how to do alchemy, but he didn't do anything when he saw me holding the materials. He must be enjoying the show!"
Thewis didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Maybe he doesn't want to reveal his alchemy skills. But why do you think he'll help you even if he does?"
"Do you think he won't?" Eureka scoffed.
Thewis chuckled helplessly. "Maybe he'll help you if you threaten him with your strength. But do you really have the guts to drink it?"
Eureka didn't say anything. If it were someone else, Eureka could easily threaten them. But for this kind of technical alchemist, it would be troublesome if he left a little harmless secret in his work, which would be a hindrance at a critical moment.
"Don't even think about threatening him. In a way, he's more important than you and I." Thewis paused for a moment before continuing, "Besides, I think Brute Cavern will do something to help him."
Thewis had a point. But Eureka knew that Thewis was much more extreme than her. Thewis only treated Angor so politely because Angor was valuable to him.
"So you're willing to help Leon because of Angor's alchemy skills?" You want to get closer to Angor? "Eureka asked.
Thewis nodded, then shook his head. "That's true. But the main reason I want to get closer to Angor is because of you."
"Because of me?"
"Crimson Crown." Thewis mentioned a name in a soft voice. "Angor also created a replica of Crimson Crown, and it almost looked like the real thing."
…
While Thewis and Eureka were talking to each other, Angor was reading Mithra's alchemy notes carefully.
Mithra gave him this alchemy notebook before he left Floating Mech City, which recorded Mithra's potion-making experiences.
Angor recalled that the notebook contained detailed instructions on how to make Moonspider Antidote.
Back when he was in Floating Mech City, he studied Apothecary Hut in Master Mithra's Apothecary Hut, and Mithra personally taught him how to make several potions.
One of them was the antidote.
Angor didn't manage to make the antidote back in Elixir Hut, but he didn't neglect his Apothecary Hut, especially the potions Mithra taught him.
He already successfully made a low-tier potion like Moonspider Antidote back when he was on The Limpet.
Moonspider Antidote, on the other hand, was only a variant of Moonspider Antidote.
After reading the alchemy notebook, Angor was sure that the antidote was almost the same, except that there were a few extra steps in between.
Thanks to Mithra's unique interpretation of the antidote, Angor was confident that he could make it.
Angor put away the notebook. He didn't start right away because he still needed one main ingredient.
He already had most of the ingredients for making Moonspider Antidote because they were similar to the ones he needed to make Moonspider Antidote. However, there was one main ingredient that he had to get.
It was the venom of a Swamp Spider.
Not only did it have to be used as a main ingredient, but it also served as an initiator.
To get the venom, Angor had to find the Swamp Spider first. Since he couldn't sense the presence of the Swamp Spider nearby, he released a scout puppet and used it to scan the area.
The search went smoothly. The Swamp Spider wouldn't go too far from its nest. In the end, Angor found a Swamp Spider walking on water near a branch of a river.
The Swamp Spider was as big as a calf, but it was able to stand on the water and drag a shallow crocodile with its green silk.
Angor already saw the remains of a crocodile nearby. It seemed the Swamp Spider wasn't satisfied with Leon's size and wanted to store more food.
Angor planned to kill the Swamp Spider and take its poison sac, but Thewis seemed to be interested in the creature. Angor decided not to kill it. Instead, he used an illusion to trick the creature into thinking that it had a new prey and spat out its venom.
Angor didn't mind his surroundings at all. He immediately began the crafting process.
Alchemy focused on dosage and temperature control. Angor already had a lot of experience in Tooling, so it wasn't hard for him to make a low-tier potion. This was why many alchemists who studied Tooling found it easier to learn Apothecary, and vice versa.
Angor was using the Reformist's crafting method. It wasn't a smooth process, but at least he was able to complete the potion successfully.
Angor felt that his crafting method was a little old-fashioned, but Thewis, who had some experience in Apothecary, found it interesting. Thewis knew that Angor had incorporated Master Mithra's unique knowledge into the potion, which was something worth studying and studying.
The Swamp Spider Antidote was a success, but Angor wasn't sure if it could save Leon's life.
Leon was still a mortal, and the main ingredient of the Swamp Spider Antidote was the Swamp Spider's poison. Angor wasn't sure if Leon could survive the poison.
Thewis noticed Angor's hesitation. "You underestimated Leon. The fact that Leon was able to break through the supernatural limit with Willpower Casting is proof enough of his tenacity. No matter how tyrannical the Night Spider Antidote is, it's still a low-grade medicine. "
Angor knew that he might be overthinking things. But he still had to be careful when it came to his only blood relative in this world.
He used Narda's Vision to confirm the effect of the potion, then checked Leon's condition again. Finally, he poured the potion into Leon's body.
Leon's entire body began to tremble.
His blood vessels began to bulge, and his entire body began to turn red.
"Argh!" Under the extreme pain, Leon finally woke up from the blissful dream created by the Maze Vine Sap.
Angor watched Leon writhing in pain, which made him feel anxious as well.
He was planning to drag Leon into the dream wasteland as a precaution. However, he knew that the Swamp Spider Antidote would cause extreme damage to Leon's body. Angor wouldn't be able to get Leon into the dream wasteland.
Unless Angor had full access to the dream wasteland.
