BXBX NOVEL Chapter 138 - Last Sale IV
---"
What a pill!" Bradley said in a breathless whisper. His eyes shone as he thoroughly inspected Armond\'s body. He couldn\'t find any traces of internal damage nor any signs of energy deviation within.
There is a similar pill that the pavilion released far back, it\'s called Energy Gathering Pill. The pill add at least 10% of energy volume in their reserves when consumed. However, there\'s a lot of misgivings to this pill. One is that, it contains a lot of impurities. It is not advised to consume them in bulk or else it would do more harm than good. Second is that, it\'s expensive. It costs a 30 gold per pill, this was a major deterrence for potential buyers since the effects of the pill and its price aren\'t matching. 30 gold cards is enough for someone to buy a set of steel armors and weapons, rather than relying on a pill that leaves a potential danger to the body, they might as well save it for less risky purchase.
The last and probably the worst thing about this pill is that, the energy contained within is berserk. Meaning that anyone who consumed it has to \'tame\' these wild energies before fusing it to their main reserves. This poses a severe problem since the process of \'taming\' these energies is incredibly taxing on their psyche. This berserk energies also has a chance to do an internal backlash if weren\'t addressed properly, and to cultivators that is a huge red flag.
Comparing the Energy Gathering Pill to this new Energy Condensing Pill is akin to a pearl contesting the sun for brilliance.
"Excuse me, Lady Anne." One random person from the crowd meekly raised his hand.
"Yes?"
"How much does this Energy Condensing Pill costs?" The crowd instantly perked up upon hearing his question, they forgot that Anne still hadn\'t mention its price. Anne smiled and said…
"7 gold cards." The crowd was stunned into silence immediately. 7 gold cards! What concept was this? They find it hard to believe that, they too could experience the benefits of this pill for only 7 gold cards? What Energy Gathering Pill? That thing is trash compared to this!
"7 gold cards per pill? That\'s insane!"
"This won\'t do! I have to gather more funds! I absolutely have to get my hands on a couple of pills!"
"My son is stuck at the Junior Warrior Realm for five years, if that guy was able to breakthrough with this pill, then that means that my son could too!"
Many people started sending out voice transmissions to their specific clans, telling them to send as much money as they could. They were very determined to get their hands on this pill. Meanwhile, Anne pursed her lips and couldn\'t help but to comment.
"My bad, it seems that there\'s a slight misunderstanding here. The Energy Condensing Pill doesn\'t cost 7 gold cards per pill. It costs 7 gold cards per bottle. Each bottle contains five pills."
As soon as she made this announcement, the hall immediately shook.
"W-what!?"
"You mean we get to have 5 Energy Condensing Pill for only 7 gold cards!?"
"How come it\'s so cheap? I\'m pretty sure that the materials needed for each pill should be expensive! Not to mention the success rate of concoction. So why is it only priced as such?"
"Don\'t sweat about the little details, the real question is, how many do they have in their stash."
"You\'re right."
Anne patiently waited for the commotion to mellow down on it\'s own. In her mind she was filled with pride and satisfaction. To cause these influential people to act all panicked and excited caused her to feel that she\'s doing her job magnificently. After all that buzz, the crowd calmed down for a bit and returned their attention to her. For her, this was the sign that the next pill should be introduced.She signalled and servants stepped forward again. They placed yet another pill bottle beside her, the crowd was silent and waited for her to do her job.
"Let\'s continue this trend." Anne said excitedly, she looked for someone willing to test the next pill.
In the end she chose a person due to the instructions from a voice transmission. She interviewed the man for a bit and figured out that his name was Chris. He is an Elder from a merchant clan. The most notable factor about him is that, his left sleeve was empty.
Meaning that he\'s missing his left arm. When he was asked to recount the details about why he lost his left arm, he said that it was due to an ambush they encountered when they travelled past the walls. A beast attacked them out of nowhere and by sacrificing his left arm they get to keep their lives with them. After he was done explaining, Anne tore off his sleeve, exposing the closed joint from his shoulders, many grimaced by the sight but they couldn\'t think much because Anne immediately pushed a pill on Chris\' lips. Upon swallowing the pill, Chris felt that he was sent into a boiling pool of water.
Sweat dripped down on his entire body and he was left panting for breath. Yet none of those was his concern. His attention was plastered on his missing arm. With a speed visible to the naked eye, he saw how his left arm regenerated bit by bit. He felt like he was dreaming but the warm sensation of his growing arm repeatedly reminded him that this was not a dream at all. The crowd stared with heated gaze at this scene, the process of regeneration took fifteen minutes in total. After that, everyone could see that Chris face was gushing with tears, he looked at his regenerated arm, clasping it and pinching it to see if it was real. To him, it was like he never lost it in the first place. It felt just like what he had remembered. Anne broke the crowd\'s stupor and announced:
"This pill is the Limb Restoration Pill. Consuming this pill allows one to regenerate their missing limb, but once again, due to lack of proper materials, this pill is a bit limited. It could only restore a limb that\'s been missing for no longer than a month. Anything beyond that, this pill can\'t restore. So please keep this in mind when purchasing it."
"The Limb Restoration Pill costs 25 gold cards per bottle. Each bottle contains three pills."
The crowd was in uproar once more. What a miraculous pill! Even though it has some limitations, it doesn\'t change the fact that it could still regrow missing limbs! And to think that they\'re only selling it for 25 gold cards was even more preposterous! This pill is a huge lifesaver, and yet it\'s available for this cheap! The reveal went on and Anne continued the trend where she would ask someone to experiment first before revealing the pill. The next pill she introduced was the Limit Breaking Pill. A miraculous pill that could let them breakthrough to the next realm.
The Energy Condensing Pill only doubles the energy reserves one has, greatly helping their cultivation to rise, unfortunately it doesn\'t have any impacts to bottlenecks. The Limit Breaking Pill was made for that purpose, it shatters bottlenecks and allows one to step onto the next realm. However one cannot rely on this alone since continuous consumption of this pill will have a diminishing effect, this much was clear. It is set at 50 gold cards per pill bottle, each bottle had three pills and no one has any qualms about this.
Still this pill was destined to become famous. It was unknown how many people will dream of having just one to aid their cultivation levels. For these nobles, money isn\'t problem but the supply was. This show just how dire the situation of the kingdom was. Even so, the reveal still wasn\'t done. Not long after that, Anne asked another one to test the next pill.
This time it was the Berserk Trigger Pill. This pill enables one to unlock the strength of two realms above their current level. Meaning that if one is currently at Junior Warrior Realm, consuming this pill will temporarily raise their cultivation level to Veteran Warrior Realm. This effect last for an hour before dissipating.
And what probably the most important thing about this pill is that, it doesn\'t have any severe backlashes other than not being able to consume another one for at least a day.
It\'s price is 30 gold cards per bottle, each bottle contains five pills.
Just as they thought that Richard couldn\'t surprise them anymore, he just went ahead and did it. They have long since been speechless about the development of this sale. Any of the pills that was revealed today could totally change one\'s life. Not only each pill was incredibly potent, they were extremely cheap as well! They might as well forget that the pavilion had other pills aside from this. Any of this new pills could easily trump their previous release. And to think that they previously thought that an alchemist is just a hobby. But if any of them were thinking that the reveal was done.. Then they are sorely mistaken.
