Jade City, Philip’s Alchemy Palace,
Lis gazed in awe at the magical Alchemy Palace and exclaimed,
“It’s truly befitting of you, everything here makes me feel as if I have entered another world!”
The surroundings confirmed Lis’s speculation of the other’s identity.
Legendary Alchemist!
Such an existence is extremely rare among all those with extraordinary professions!
Generally, alchemists are actually one of the pathways for advancement in the mage profession, only that compared to ordinary mage professionals, alchemists have more stringent talent requirements.
Alchemists typically specialize in the creation of magic potions and magic items; although they are capable of using spells of the same level, their combat capabilities are weaker than other mage advancements. They rely more on the magic items and equipment they craft.
Aside from not being adept in combat, alchemists must spend lots of time familiarizing themselves with and demanding various magic materials, mastering a range of knowledge, which means their power advancement is much slower compared to other professions. Also, in the early stages of their career, they consume a large amount of magic materials, which isn’t something the average extraordinary professional can afford.
Compared to other professionals, alchemists are more like researchers, always holed up within the Mage Tower.
In addition, the means at the disposal of alchemists aren’t limited to just what they can handle themselves.
All mage professionals learn some alchemy to some extent, which includes concocting magic potions and creating magic items, and even choose alchemy as a secondary profession, though not as specialized as alchemists.
Take Lis, for instance, under Mr. Stephens’s tutelage, his skills are not low; it’s just that Lis hasn’t been able to devote much time to this area.
But this doesn’t mean alchemists are not strong. Once their alchemy skills improve, they can be considered one of the safest and most comfortable transcendent professions.
Just by taking commissions from other professionals, alchemists can amass wealth far beyond that of adventurers of the same level without having to venture themselves.
With the help of items like the Alchemy Demon and other magic items, alchemists’ combat prowess is also quite formidable.
Just like the Legendary Elemental Magic Statue Lis discovered in Azela Floating City, if protected by a statue of that caliber, who would say alchemists lack combat strength?
“Sit!”
Philip waved his hand, and a set of beautifully ornate sofas and a small table appeared in front of him and Lis, with steaming hot tea and delicious pastries waiting to be tasted.
Seeing this, Lis didn’t hold back and sat opposite Philip.
It now seemed that the Legendary Alchemist Philip held no malice towards him; rather, he had been showing goodwill all along.
What exactly did the Legendary Crown want to do?
“Lis, I’ve seen your application; you established ‘Nature’s Wrath’ to investigate and eliminate those Abyss Demons?”
Philip picked up a cup of tea and smiled at Lis as he asked.
“That’s right.”
Lis nodded slightly but didn’t appear uncomfortable; instead, he started tasting a pink cookie.
These cookies were baked by elves using wheat and freshly collected flower petals. Aside from the fragrance of grains, they also had a sweet, fresh floral scent; the taste varied depending on the flower petals used, and Lis liked them quite a bit.
“Lord Yggdrasil instructed me to do my best to prevent the impending horror the Endless Abyss is bound to bring, so I wanted to start from this direction.”
“I see…”
Philip looked somewhat melancholic, not concealing his emotions.
Elf Great Sage Adela naturally conveyed everything she learned from Lis to the Jade City Elf Council, which also happened to be a matter of concern for all council members.
The destruction of the Elf Court was shocking enough for them, and furthermore, they were told that it was just a step in Demon Prince Demogorgon’s plan.
In the future, he would unleash even more horrible disasters over a wider area; even as a legend, Philip couldn’t help but worry about the future.
If this had been known before the destruction of the Elf Court, Philip wouldn’t have cared, because the Elf Gods had always been guarding the continuation of the Elf Clan.
But with the complete destruction of the Elf Court by the Demon Prince, and the Elf Gods failing to stop it in time, it was like a warning bell for all elves.
Naturally, they do not doubt the Elf Gods’ decision to protect the elves, but the harsh reality has proven that even deities cannot completely protect the entire Elf Clan.
At this point, everyone naturally had to take action.
This is why, even though Lis, an Elf Sage, was a human and disliked or viewed with hostility by many conservative elves, no one obstructed the ‘Nature’s Wrath’ application.
In Jade City, even the people of the Elf Capital and Elf Land were watching.
Watching what this Favored of World Tree Yggdrasil, who is also an Elf Sage, would do.
Although Lis is a human, his status is unfortunately too high.
The members of the Jade City Elf Council, strictly speaking, do not have anywhere near the nobility of Lis’s status, which is why Lis found himself “coldly treated.”
