Chapter 2: Refining Gargoyle!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After being overjoyed, Mas looked at the information floating out of his retina. His eyes flashed with a cold light and he looked very surprised.

“This gold-refining platform can actually be automatically refined into an alchemy item?” Mas could not help but exclaim in surprise.

One had to know that the reason why alchemy was so expensive was because of the generation rate that people loved and hated.

Even a renowned alchemist in the country had a very small chance of failing when refining a so-called one-star alchemist soldier. Even the slightest problem could result in garbage.

Even a one-star alchemical creature would require a lot of money on alchemy materials. For an alchemical soldier, even if a one-star alchemist was to succeed once, he would still have to spend the entire season’s expenses of a farmer’s family. This was an extremely terrifying amount of money. It could be said that any great alchemist would have to accumulate an endless amount of wealth.

Therefore, everyone could guess why the king of the Storm Empire was so angry. One could imagine how much money Swoks had cheated the royal family of.

“With this Creator’s Alchemy Platform, as long as I have the synthesis formula and materials, wouldn’t I have a 100% success rate of refining it?”

After coming back to his senses, Mas hurriedly put the Creator’s Alchemy Platform into the alchemy space. Then, he quickly rushed towards the transmission channel of the Alchemy Tower.

As the name suggested, the transmission channel was an alchemy item used for transmission. This was because if one climbed up the stairs to the top of this hundreds-of-meter alchemy tower, the manpower alone would be enough to exhaust Mas.

The principle of the transmission channel was to move based on electromagnetism.

Mas quickly entered the transmission channel. As the runes carved on the transmission channel flashed, in an instant, Mas arrived at the top of the Alchemy Tower.

Mas had only come up to the top of the alchemy tower once in the past. That was the first time he had come to the alchemy tower. Swoks had brought him around and specifically instructed him not to come to the top of the tower under any circumstances. This was the materials warehouse and was everything Swoks had worked on.

With a ding-dong sound, Mas finally arrived at the top of the tower. He had once again arrived at the place where the treasures were gathered.

Looking at the large amount of rare materials and gold coins on the top floor, Mas put them all into his alchemy space. Then, he took out the Creator’s Alchemy Platform from the alchemy space and prepared to start refining.

Time was of the essence. There were only two ways now:

First, return those gold coins, see the mood of the royal family and if they were willing to let him go. Mas did not even need to think about this before he directly dismissed it. What a joke! He had been reborn and his life was in his hands. Moreover, after the king of the Storm Empire discovered that Swoks escaped, he would definitely kill Mas to vent his anger.

Second, create a powerful alchemical creature on the spot and use it to threaten the leader of the other party, using it as a bargaining chip to negotiate with the other party. Any normal person would choose the second option without thinking.

Although Swoks was not very capable, he loved alchemy from the bottom of his heart. Otherwise, he would have become an apprentice until he was about 60 years old.

The alchemy notes of the previous owner of the Alchemy Tower were still intact. This was a priceless treasure.

Mas found a notebook he had just taken in from the alchemy space and carefully removed it.

As the name suggested, the alchemy notebook was a notebook that alchemists used to record their daily experiments. It could be said to be the lifeblood of most alchemists.

Because the failure rate of alchemy was very high, if the tiniest bit of materials did not match, it could lead to the failure of the entire alchemy, resulting in the relatively trashy deficiencies.

Therefore, every alchemist had a good habit of taking notes. It was to adjust the ratio of materials for the next alchemy, as well as to record their own insights so that they could provide direction and data for the next experiment.

Mas opened the notebook. The handwriting on the notebook was rather messy, but thankfully, it did not affect Mas. He barely recognized some of the things recorded on it.

Mas faced the catalog and quickly flipped through the notebook, hoping to find something from it. He finally found it!

The Gargoyle in the tower was an ancient product of one of the long-forgotten lost empires. It was a flying creature that could be mass-produced in ancient times. It had extraordinary combat power and could be considered as one of the top four-star alchemical combat powers!

[Alchemy ingredients required to refine the Gargoyle: 20 kilograms of tempered steel, four-star magic crystal, low-grade beast skin frame, one exquisite obsidian stone]

[Crafting Method: First, put 20 kilograms of tempered steel into a flame with a temperature of 2,500 degrees Celsius for reforging…]

Mas only took a glance at the refinement method. With the Creator’s Alchemy Platform, he did not need to learn the refinement method. He only needed to refine the materials.

Through the formula, Mas immediately started searching for the ingredients needed for the formula in the alchemy space.

After searching for half a day, Mas finally found an expensive five-star magic crystal in a corner and carefully took it out.

This magic crystal was rhombus-shaped and emitted a faint yellow light, indicating that this magical crystal was of the earth attribute.

Mas was really convinced. After two months of systematic learning, he knew some basic knowledge about alchemy. For such a 5-star item to be sold on the market, it would probably cost tens of thousands of gold coins. Even some famous alchemy masters would have to think twice before buying an item of this level.

“Looks like the old man Swoks cheated quite a bit of money from the royal family… No wonder those people outside are so aggressive.” Mas could not help but grin.

After all, Swoks had swindled the money from the royal family of the Storm Empire half a year ago. At that time, Mas was still on that planet called Earth and did not know about this at all.

If Swoks had swindled millions of gold coins from the royal family of the Storm Empire and given those defective goods to others, causing the Storm Empire to retreat in defeat at the front line and suffer heavy losses, no one would be able to accept such a terrible thing. They would definitely fight to the death. No wonder that old king was so angry that he drew so many cavalry troops and mages guarding the capital…

It looked like it would not be easy to deal with this time. He hoped that the Gargoyle refined by the Creator’s Alchemy Platform would be able to help him survive this ordeal. He had seen it in the history of alchemy. That thing was extremely powerful. As a lost product of the Tower Empire, its combat power alone was equal to a thousand.

Success or failure depended on this!
