Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 1060: Alchemist Competition

Chapter 1060: Chapter 1060: Alchemist Competition

The words of the waiter rang in Wyatt Barnes’ ears like a loud peal of thunder, causing him to momentarily lose his composure.

He had never imagined it.

The Yez and Gagnon families in the ’Northumberland’ had such big origins, such deep foundations, and such extensive networks.

No wonder they could become one of the most powerful forces in ’Northumberland’!

"The Yez and Gagnon families have been inherited for tens of thousands of years... Even those ’first-rate forces’ on the other side of Weak Water River that have been inherited for tens of thousands of years are few and far between."

A thought crossed Wyatt’s mind as he pondered secretly.

Of course, from the waiter’s words, he also learned why the Yez and Gagnon families had been able to survive for tens of thousands of years.

It all boiled down to the networks established in the ’inland’ by the ancestors of the Grade One Artifact Refiners and Grade One alchemists of the Yez and Gagnon families.

That network had such a strong deterrent power that it enabled the two families to survive for tens of thousands of years without trouble.

The inland refers to the central region of the Cloud Skies Continent.

There are quite a few ’first-rate forces’ there.

First-rate forces are extremely powerful, far beyond any second-rate forces.

Even if a ’first-rate force’ wanted to obliterate a ’second-rate force,’ it would only need to deploy its strongest Martial Emperors to easily sweep through the latter.

The latter stands no chance against a first-rate force.

Those first-rate forces that manage to last three or four thousand years are already extremely rare.

At the very least, in the eras of the reincarnating Martial Emperors, there had never been a ’first-rate force’ that lasted over five thousand years.

"However, both the Yez family and the Gagnon family produced more than ten Grade One Artifact Refiners and Grade One alchemists over ten thousand years... These Grade One refiners and alchemists were, more or less, associated with some ’first-rate forces’ that existed through the millennia."

"Because of this, when one ’first-rate force’ perished, naturally a second ’first-rate force’ would follow up and protect the unbroken lineage of the Yez and Gagnon families."

This was something that Wyatt could easily think of.

This was also the main reason the Yez and Gagnon families had been able to last for ten thousand years.

"Artifact Refiner families, alchemist families... indeed, two miraculous families!"

Wyatt silently exclaimed.

At the same time, he recalled the siblings that Taoi Romero had saved that day, "It seems that they must be from the ’Northumberland Gagnon family’... and it looks like they hold quite high positions within the Gagnon family of Northumberland!"

Wyatt remembered.

Initially, the cloaked man who wanted to kill the siblings had called the elder brother ’Second Young Master’ and the younger sister ’Seventh Miss’.

"Waiter, which of the two families, the Yez or the Gagnon, is closer to here?"

Wyatt looked towards the waiter and asked.

His purpose this time was the strongest force in Northumberland.

Since the Yez and Gagnon families were both considered the strongest forces in Northumberland, he inevitably had to choose one.

In his view.

Whether it was the Yez or the Gagnon family, there wasn’t much difference to him.

Therefore, he leaned towards the family that was closer to his current location.

Put simply, he was just lazy, reluctant to travel too far.

After all, there was no difference between the two families; either would do.

"Comparing the two, the Gagnon family is indeed closer... The Gagnon family is located outside the city in the northeast direction, not far from here, only ten thousand miles away."

Although not knowing what the young guest needed this information for, the waiter still replied truthfully.

Whether it’s the Northumberland Yez family or the Northumberland Gagnon family.

The locations of their residences are not unfamiliar to the people in ’Northumberland’.

"Hmm."

Wyatt nodded and then reached out for an intermediate original stone, handing it to the waiter, "This is your reward for introducing the Yez and Gagnon families."

"Thank you, sir."

Seeing the intermediate original stone in his hand, the waiter’s face lit up with a smile; he had spent so much effort talking just hoping for a ’tip’ from a pleased customer.

"Gentlemen, if there are no other questions, I will take my leave and not disturb your meal further."

After notifying Wyatt and Fill Bear, the waiter withdrew.

After the waiter left, Wyatt Barnes and Fill Bear began to sweep through the dishes on the table, and within just a quarter of an hour, the table was left with nothing but empty cups, empty dishes, and empty bowls.

"Let’s go!"

After paying the bill, Wyatt called to Fill Bear, took the ’Ice Coffin,’ and left the tavern.

Once outside the city, Wyatt continued with Fill Bear in the northeast direction.

"Northumberland Gagnon family!"

Wyatt’s destination was the Gagnon family of Northumberland, the closest to his current location.

It was also one of the strongest forces in ’Northumberland’.

The Northumberland Gagnon family, also known as the ’alchemist family’!

Wyatt’s only purpose in going to the Northumberland Gagnon family was to reveal his identity as a ’Grade One alchemist,’ become a Sacrificial Officer and Honorary Minister of the Northumberland Gagnon family, thereby obtaining a large amount of cultivation resources from the Northumberland Gagnon family to help himself and Fill Bear improve their cultivation and ’realm.’

Currently, although his strength was not bad,

But if placed on the other side of the "Weak Water River", namely the central region of the Cloud Skies Continent, it still counted for nothing.

Using the "Weak Water River" as a dividing line, inside and out were two different worlds.

Outside the Weak Water River, no "first-class powers" existed.

But inside the Weak Water River, not only did "first-class powers" exist, but there were also top-tier powers present, such as two ancient clans, and the forces controlled by the "Martial Emperor".

There, was a paradise for the strong!

At the same time, it was also Hell for the weak.

"The ’Big Treasure’ left by the Martial Emperor during his second incarnation, is in the inland!"

It is for this reason that Wyatt Barnes had to go inland.

Moreover, even if the Martial Emperor had not left the ’Big Treasure,’ he had to go inland, because it was a necessary route for him if he wanted to reach the pinnacle of the Cloud Skies Continent.

To travel a distance of thousands of miles, using an airplane on Earth, where Wyatt lived in his previous life, it would have taken six or seven hours of continuous flight.

But for the current Wyatt, it would only take one hour to arrive.

In less than an hour, Wyatt had already seen in the distance on the plains, a vast cluster of buildings that stood erect, resembling demon beasts lying in wait.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, as if he had noticed something, Wyatt abruptly halted and looked around.

"Is that the Northumberland Gagnon Family? Why are there so many people?"

Fill Bear glanced left, then right, and said in surprise.

Wyatt saw it too.

Now, in the vast cluster of buildings ahead, from all directions, people were swiftly approaching and then descending towards the west side of the buildings without exception.

"If I can rank within the top thirty in the ’Alchemist Competition’ held by the Northumberland Gagnon Family, I could become an internal family member related by marriage, and then I’ll never worry about lacking materials for alchemy."

A crisp voice timely reached Wyatt’s ears.

"Hehe... I want to become an internal family member related by marriage to the Northumberland Gagnon Family through this ’Alchemist Competition,’ but it’s not just for those materials,"

soon followed another voice, "There are many high-grade alchemists within the Northumberland Gagnon Family; there are even several ’Grade One Alchemists’... If I could learn from them, my achievements in alchemy could improve leaps and bounds in one day!"

"However, the tests by the Northumberland Gagnon Family are really stringent... The minimum entry level is ’Grade Six Alchemist’! Those below Grade Six don’t even qualify to participate."

Towards the end, the owner of this voice somewhat complained.

At this moment, the two men discussing this flew past near Wyatt.

Two middle-aged men.

As they passed by Wyatt, their gazes couldn’t help but linger on the ’ice coffin’ floating next to him.

The ice coffin was truly too eye-catching.

"Alchemist Competition?"

Now, Wyatt also roughly gathered some information; the Northumberland Gagnon Family, seemed to be holding some ’Alchemist Competition’.

As long as one was among the top thirty in the ’Alchemist Competition,’ they could enter the Northumberland Gagnon Family and become a member of the family related by marriage.

The Northumberland Gagnon Family, was an alchemist family, where over half the family members were alchemists, among which were numerous high-grade alchemists.

For low-grade alchemists, that place was practically a paradise!

Once inside, one could interact with many alchemists, thus enhancing one’s mastery in the art of alchemy.

Should there be a chance to receive guidance from a high-grade alchemist, rapid improvement was outright certain.

"It seems that these people are all here for the ’Alchemist Competition’ held by the Northumberland Gagnon Family... Aside from some participants, there must be quite a few who are here to watch the excitement,"

Watching the people coming from all directions, Wyatt mused internally.

"Eh... It looks like there’s a woman lying inside."

Suddenly, a voice of surprise came from behind Wyatt.

Following that, Wyatt saw three middle-aged men pass by his side shoulder to shoulder.

The voice just now belonged to one of them.

However, after the three middle-aged men passed by Wyatt’s side, they didn’t leave but instead started to circle around the ice coffin and scrutinize it.

"Such a beautiful woman!"

"If I could have such a beautiful woman, even if it meant shortening my life by ten years, I’d be willing!"

"How is she lying inside the ice coffin?"

...

The three middle-aged men pointed and discussed the ice coffin, blatantly ignoring Wyatt Barnes and Fill Bear standing nearby.

"Scram!"

Just as Fill Bear’s expression changed and he was about to reprimand the three men, a cold voice suddenly erupted, sounding like thunder in the ears of the three middle-aged men.

Startled, the three men trembled and, recovering their composure, they turned toward the source of the voice.

"Kid, you’re courting death!"

Quickly, the three men’s gazes locked onto Wyatt and they yelled in unison.

Boom!

Wyatt ignored the three angry men glaring at him, took a step forward, and a monumental force began brewing within him, then rolled out.
