Chapter 129: Chapter 129: The Startled Joshua Bingaman
Translator: 549690339
Footsteps echoed down the beautifully decorated theater corridor, growing louder as they approached.
Joshua Bingaman, his long hair reaching his waist, accompanied by Abigail, the head maid, and the leader of the household guards, cautiously followed behind Gideon Black, his mind full of thoughts.
The exquisite scroll just taken out by the other party exuded strong energy fluctuations.
If nothing was out of the ordinary, it should be a very rare Tier 3 Magic Medicines Formula.
You should know that for an alchemist, making a regular magical potion formula is extremely difficult and cumbersome.
The creator is required to know each step and detail of making this kind of magical medicine by heart, indeed, to the point of being able to recite it backwards and forwards.
This cannot be taken shortcuts on, and can only be built on the foundation of countless practical experiences.
And the time span for this is often in terms of decades, or even several decades.
Therefore, each magical potion formula is a life’s worth of painstaking work for an alchemist.
Moreover, due to the rare materials that are hard to find, the higher the level of the formula, the harder it is to make.
This just goes to show how precious they are.
In the Coldflame Kingdom, the value and rarity of a Tier 3 Magic Medicines Formula are no less than a Tier 5 Weapon.
Even the most powerful Coldflame Royal Family only has two Tier 5 Weapons as its National Guardian Divine Weapons!
Thinking of this, Joshua Bingaman’s icy demeanor softened slightly, and he could not help but lick his lips.
As he grew up, he had only seen a Tier 2 Magic Drug formula from his teacher.
Even the Master Clifford that many alchemists just saw and admired, who had been famous for fifty to sixty years, was said to only have mastered the refining methods of three kinds of Tier 3 Magic Medicines.
The most crucial point is that Joshua Bingaman himself has a reason for needing the Tier 3 Magic Medicines Formula.
And this was exactly why he had almost no hesitation in following Gideon Black to meet Leo Ray.
“In theory, each magical potion formula is the lifeblood of an alchemist and will not be easily circulated.”
Walking gracefully, Joshua Bingaman’s frosty face showed a hint of puzzlement, “Could it be that the other party is actually a hidden senior alchemist? But judging from his age, he should be about the same as me…”
Just as Joshua Bingaman was pondering with frowning eyebrows, the group had already arrived at the door of Leo Ray’s room.
“Please come in.”
Gideon Black, who was leading the way, gracefully opened the door after obtaining permission, leading Joshua Bingaman and the three others into the room.
“Sir, these are the people.”
Having completed his task, Gideon Black adjusted his glasses, saluted Leo Ray respectfully before stepping aside.
At this moment, apart from Gideon Black, Stella Clark and Scarlett were also surrounding Leo Ray.
As for Taylor and Serena Clark who had just rushed back, they were hidden under an Invisibility Cloak.
On the other side, Leo Ray, who had been standing in front of the transparent glass gazing into the distance, slowly turned around and looked calmly at the icy noblewoman in front of him.
“What, may I ask, is your purpose?”
Across him, looking at Leo Ray with a calm expression, Joshua Bingaman’s eyebrows were knitted together. Despite his heart pounding, his face was still filled with vigilance as he spoke first.
Hearing this, Leo Ray casually played with the Tier 3 Magic Medicines Formula handed over by Gideon Black, seemingly casually remarked, “I heard that you need this? I wouldn’t mind giving it to you.”
“Give?” On the other side, Abigail, the head maid who was also aware of the value of a magic potion formula, had a face filled with anger.
She subconsciously put her hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist and loudly reprimanded, “Your Excellency, please do not mock my young lady! ”
This scene made Stella Clark and Scarlett, who were next to Leo Ray, become wary, and they simultaneously assumed a ready stance.
At the same time, the leader of the Rivers Family’s guards across them also prepared to unsheath his sword.
For a moment, the room was permeated with a palpable tension, akin to the scent of gunpowder.
Patting Stella and Scarlett’s shoulders to show that they didn’t need to be nervous, Leo Ray smiled and said, “This maid, don’t rush, you won’t have any chance against us.”
After he finished speaking, Leo Ray nodded at Gideon Black, who was unperturbed beside him. Instantly, an overwhelming surge of power erupted, shrouding exactly where Joshua Bingaman and his group were located.
“A Tier 4 Powerhouse?!”
Feeling the immense pressure, Abigail exchanged glances with the leader of the guards. They both saw disbelief in each other’s eyes.
Both of them had the strength of a Tier 3 three-star, and even adding the strength of their Miss with Tier 3 six-star, they were not at all a match against Leo Ray alone.
Without a doubt, the young man in front of them was a formidable figure they couldn’t afford to provoke!
“Your Excellencv… Who exactlv are vou?”
Upon seeing it, Joshua Bingaman’s long eyelashes fluttered, his lips slightly parted in an expression of shock.
It should be known that the strongest person in their Rivers family, her father, was only a Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouse.
There is only one step between the Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouse and the Tier 4 Powerhouse.
However, this one step was like a chasm as deep as an abyss.
Among ten people, the one’s who managed to advance within their lifetime would be considered very rare.
Although she had extraordinary talents in terms of alchemy, her cultivation was only on par with her fathers who had equally exceptional talents.
Her father had been stuck at the Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouse level for several decades without any signs of breakthrough, coupled with that incident a few years ago…
Of course, if they could use the power of magic medicines, they naturally had a strong possibility of breaking through.
However, the Tier 4 Magic Pill with such an effect is worth at least two million Gold Dragons, far exceeding the family’s financial capability.
What’s more, even if they gathered that money, there often would be a situation where the pill was nowhere to be found.
What if the advancement fails? Wouldn’t all efforts be wasted then?
In short, if their family could possess a Tier 4 Powerhouse-
Not only could they completely surpass their equally strong competitors, the Hernandez Family and the Frost Family-
They could even rise to the rank of the kingdom’s top nobility!
This was something that generations of leaders in the Rivers family dreamt about!
However, such a thing, which was almost impossible for her family-
Seems to be something that the young man in front of her can achieve effortlessly…
“Who I am, you will know it soon.”
With a slight smile, Leo Ray approached her, the fresh scent distinctly different from Orion Wolfe, entered his nostrils.
Smelling the somewhat intoxicating fragrance, Leo Ray gathered his thoughts.
Then, he looked into her clear and bright eyes and said slowly, “Joshua Bingaman, before I explain my identity, you should first tell me why you need the formula for the Tier 3 magic medicines.”
At this moment, the smile on Leo Ray’s face grew stronger, and he continued, “Perhaps, your troubles may just require a slight effort on my part..”
