Chapter 381 Items of the Legendary level are still too subpar.

A group of people, led by Thaddeus, arrived at the Magical Alchemy Room inside the Mystic Attic, where they saw a human-sized alchemy furnace.

The furnace was a dark yellow color, adorned with various complex symbols and runes, exuding an ancient and solid appearance.

Inside the room, two young apprentices were intently using various peculiar alchemy tools and instruments, busy mixing, heating, and transforming mysterious substances in intricate alchemical experiments.

“This Soft Cloud Furnace must be of the Rare quality, right?” mused a Soulmancer who clearly had no clue about alchemy furnaces, standing not far away.

“Rare quality? You’re underestimating Thaddeus. I think it’s definitely Legendary quality!” laughed another Soulmancer of intermediate level.

Items like alchemy furnaces, weapons, and potions were categorized by Soulmancers into four levels: Legendary, Epic, Rare, and Common. Anything above Legendary was considered an artifact, something ordinary people were unlikely to ever see.

These comments made Thaddeus blush.

Legendary quality? His furnace was merely Common quality, not even reaching Rare. The highest quality alchemy furnace in the entire Pantheon Guild was just one of Epic quality, which obviously couldn’t be brought out.

“Cough! This is a Common quality alchemy furnace,” Thaddeus clarified, unable to fabricate claims about the furnace’s quality, as it would tarnish the reputation of the entire Pantheon Guild.

“Common quality? That seems pretty good too.”

“Yeah! Given the current scarcity of materials for making alchemy furnaces, having a Common quality one is quite impressive.”

The Soulmancers didn’t wish to offend the Pantheon Guild, but inwardly, many chuckled upon learning the Soft Cloud Furnace was merely Common quality. They doubted a Quasi-Deity level figure like Alice would be interested in such an item.

“Common quality?” Alice, not understanding what Common quality meant but sensing it wasn’t high quality from their tone, scoffed, “Just this?”

“Young lady, don’t be hasty! If you want a better one, I can make it for you! I’m currently sourcing materials and can make you a Rare quality one!” Thaddeus was also taken aback, as the young lady just glanced and clearly was not impressed. This was a tricky situation.

“Rare level?” Alice squinted her eyes slightly and sneaked a glance at William.

She didn’t have much concept of these rankings, but in her opinion, terms like Legendary, Epic, Rare, and Common couldn’t possibly compare to the furnace her master had shown her that day!

Since this sleazy old man could make a furnace, her master could surely make one too.

“No need for another one! This will do!” William glanced at the Soft Cloud Furnace. This thing was very ordinary, and its success rate in alchemy was low, which would be better for training Alice’s patience.

What he wanted wasn’t for Alice to produce some high-quality divine medicine; he just wanted to train her mind.

This furnace was just right!

If the furnace’s quality was too high and the success rate too great, alchemy would become too easy. What would be the point of that? Visit nov3lb!n(.)c𝒐m for new 𝒏ov𝒆l𝒔

Alice didn’t quite understand William’s reasoning. Why did he settle for such a worthless item?

“Well… let’s go with this one, then!” Alice was somewhat dissatisfied but didn’t dare to question further.

If William said this was the one, then this was it.

Thaddeus took a deep breath, sized up Alice and William, and asked, “So, what treasure will you trade for it?”

As he spoke, he eyed the jade dragon tendon on Alice’s wrist and said, “Little girl, let me be honest with you. Unless you give me that string on your wrist, I won’t trade for anything else.”

Alice couldn’t be bothered to argue and simply pulled out the bottle William had given her.

“I’ll trade this!” Alice knew anything her master gave her was definitely a treasure. She took out the small glass bottle, extended her hand, and let this sleazy-looking old man have a good look.

Thaddeus stared at the glass bottle in Alice’s palm. His bean-sized eyes first flashed with confusion, then he scrutinized the bottle closely.

This bottle…

“Little girl, are you joking? You want to trade a broken bottle for the Soft Cloud Furnace?”

Some Soulmancers who didn’t recognize Alice laughed when they saw her pull out such a small bottle. “Maybe the bottle contains divine medicine?”

“Ha ha ha ha!”

Some laughed, but those who knew Alice, seeing this situation, instinctively moved away from the alchemy furnace.

Damn, are these idiots suicidal?

Daring to mock a Quasi-Deity level powerhouse?

With the current commotion, it was not a good time to be involved. If Alice got provoked and suddenly lashed out, annihilating everyone on the spot, wouldn’t their deaths be in vain?

Before Alice could speak, Thaddeus couldn’t hold back any longer and barked, “All of you, get out!”

The powerful aura of a Demi-God level expert instantly oppressed those present, halting their laughter and sending them scurrying out in disarray.

Thaddeus waved his hand at the two young apprentices, saying, “You two, out as well.”

After the young apprentices had left, Thaddeus then asked, “Young lady, where did you get this bottle?”

The bottle made by William’s own hands, though not offensive in nature, was imbued with extraordinary magic. Storing pills in this glass bottle ensured their aroma wouldn’t leak and even after ten thousand years, their potency wouldn’t diminish.

As an alchemist, Thaddeus instinctively recognized that this glass bottle was indeed a precious item.

It had an extraordinary aura, but what specifically made it special, he couldn’t quite see through.

The patterns etched on the bottle were merely for aesthetics, not runes of any sort, but such engraving skill was rare in the world!

“It seems that the way the bottle was obtained is irrelevant to you….” Alice suddenly felt infuriated and said, “I want to trade the pill inside the bottle with you, not the bottle itself!”

“Ah?” Thaddeus was taken aback.

He indeed had been a bit absent-minded, mainly because the bottle seemed so extraordinary. Even though he hadn’t discerned its secrets, he felt that trading his furnace for this small glass bottle was a huge win.

But now, Alice was saying she wanted to trade the pill inside the glass bottle for the furnace?

Heh!

Did she not realize that he, Thaddeus, was a senior alchemist?

In the entire Pantheon Guild, he was the best in alchemy, even surpassing the Guild Leader in this field.

And she wanted to trade a pill for an alchemy furnace?

Did she really think her pill was some kind of divine medicine?

“Trade an alchemy furnace for a pill? Only if it’s a Legendary level pill,” Thaddeus, who had studied alchemy for over three hundred years and had only managed to produce three Legendary level pills, reasoned.

If the bottle indeed contained a Legendary level pill, trading it for a Common level alchemy furnace was not an issue.

If it was just an Epic level, honestly speaking, Thaddeus could refine those himself, though it took a bit longer. Trading for such wouldn’t make much sense.

Alice didn’t bother with further discussion and simply said, “See for yourself.”

The book on alchemy her master William had written for her didn’t mention anything about Legendary, Epic, Rare, or Common categories, just the names of the pills.

After all, William had never concocted anything as low in quality as a Legendary level pill.
