Legend of Wyatt -
Chapter 1104: Making a Comeback
Chapter 1104: Chapter 1104: Making a Comeback
"Is this... given to me by Elder Barnes?"
Soon, Randy Gagnon’s gaze returned to the ’Storage Ring’ in his hand and he also realized that the ’he’ Winnie Romero mentioned was none other than the first Honorary Minister Elder of the Gagnon Family, Wyatt Barnes.
He pricked his finger, and as a drop of blood fell, he took ownership of the Storage Ring and looked inside.
Ten bottles of Pill Medicine were neatly arranged inside.
Upon opening the bottles of Pill Medicine, he could see each pill inside, glowing with a faint halo, all of which he was all too familiar with.
Grade One Return-Life Pills!
"It seems Elder Barnes has long been prepared."
Randy Gagnon shook his head with a smile and then turned to leave.
In the land of Northumberland, high above the vast sky, five figures crossed the air, fast as lightning.
These were five people who had traveled from afar, weary from their journey.
Among the five, three took the lead, while another middle-aged man in green and an old man in blue closely followed the two, almost like their shadows.
The two being followed were also old men, now in conversation.
"Holland Keller, before long, you shall become an alchemist capable of refining pills with a purity ’over ninety percent.’"
One of the old men in a golden robe said to another in a silver robe.
"Although we still do not know what ’method’ that young man used to refine Grade One Pill Medicines with a purity ’over ninety percent’... I shall take your auspicious words to heart."
Holland Keller replied with a faint smile, yet within the depths of his gaze lay a hint of sharpness and greed.
"Chairman Keller, this time I’m helping you... I hope you will keep your promise."
The person walking alongside the two old men was also a middle-aged man, ordinary in appearance, but with bright and spirited eyes. In his hand, he clutched a sheathed long knife.
Standing there, his entire being seemed to transform into an incredibly sharp ’knife.’
Now, he too looked at Holland Keller.
"Do not worry, Family Head Yez, the promise made by Holland Keller will never be broken!"
Holland Keller said with a serious face.
"Then that’s good."
The man sharp as a ’knife’ simply nodded and said no more.
"Holland Keller... you said earlier, our target from the Gagnon Family, that Grade One alchemist, is a young man who doesn’t look a day over thirty?"
Suddenly, the man in the golden robe asked.
"Yes."
Holland Keller nodded earnestly, "And he is not just a Grade One alchemist, his martial cultivation is astonishing... I conjecture that his strength is likely in the ’Second Layer of the Martial Emperor Realm.’"
Grade One alchemist!
Second Layer of the Martial Emperor Realm!
A young man under thirty?
For a moment, except for the middle-aged man in green who seemed to be already informed, the other three visibly changed their expressions.
Even the man sharp as a ’knife’ standing aside was no exception, equally shocked because it was truly inconceivable.
A human martial artist who becomes a ’Grade One alchemist’ before the age of thirty could already be described as a ’demonically talented genius’ favored by the heavens, a darling of the gods.
However, such an alchemist, besides having astonishing alchemy skills, was also a ’Second Layer martial artist of the Martial Emperor Realm’?
"Holland Keller, are you certain you’re not playing us for fools?"
The man in the golden robe’s expression darkened slightly, looking at Holland Keller with seriousness.
The man sharp as a ’knife’ also directed his gaze at Holland Keller, with two beams of sharp light shooting from his eyes like knives, hovering above Holland Keller’s head, as if they could fall at any moment.
"Playing you for fools?"
Holland Keller looked at the man in the golden robe as if he were an idiot and said, somewhat speechlessly, "Why would I play you for fools? For no reason at all, just for fun? And to offend both of you at once?"
Upon hearing Holland Keller’s words, both the man in the golden robe and the man sharp as a ’knife’ withdrew their piercing gazes.
"I know you find this incredible... but it is the truth! When we reach the Gagnon Family tomorrow, you will know."
Holland Keller said to the man in the golden robe.
"Under thirty, a Grade One alchemist... in the history of Cloud Skies Continent, never has there been a tale of a ’demon’ becoming an ’alchemist,’ an ’Artifact Refiner’."
"That’s why, he must be human. But to also be of the ’Second Layer of the Martial Emperor Realm’ is truly unbelievable!"
The man in the golden robe narrowed his eyes upon hearing Holland Keller’s words, muttering to himself.
"No! He may not necessarily be human."
The man sharp as a ’knife’ suddenly spoke up as if he had just thought of something.
"Not necessarily human?"
Upon hearing the words of the knife-like man, not only the two old men beside him but also the middle-aged man in green and the blue-robed old man following behind them turned their attention to him.
Curiosity was brimming in their eyes, wondering why the middle-aged man would say such a thing.
The middle-aged man was none other than Jakai Yez, the Family Head of the Yez Family from Northumberland, and also the family’s strongest member!
The Yez Family, renowned in Northumberland alongside the ’Gagnon Family,’ was known as a family of Artifact Refiners.
However, Jakai Yez himself was not an Artifact Refiner.
He became the head of the Yez Family due to his powerful strength, a force capable of crushing anyone in the Yez Family!
For this reason, Jakai Yez held an absolutely supreme position within the family.
In the Yez family, the overt and covert authority Wyatt held far exceeded that of Randy Gagnon, the current family head of the Gagnon family.
Perhaps, in the Gagnon family, Randy, as the family head, wielded absolute authority on the surface, but in secret, the respect was given to the old family head of the Gagnon, Alaric Gagnon.
Of course, Alaric usually didn’t appear when there was no issue and never interfered with Randy’s management of the family.
Alaric held such a status within the family not only because he was the ’old family head’ but more so because he was the strongest member of the Gagnon family!
The Yez family also had an old family head, but he was merely a Grade Two Artifact Refiner.
Therefore, the status of the old family head of the Yez family couldn’t compare to the current family head, Jakai Yez.
"Jakai, although you are not an Artifact Refiner, you are still from the Artifact Refiner family, the Yez... Don’t tell me you don’t know that non-humans cannot become alchemists or Artifact Refiners?"
Holland Keller asked with a frown as he spoke.
"Yes, if he is not a human, but a ’Demon,’ it’s impossible for him to become an alchemist or Artifact Refiner, let alone a top-tier alchemist like a Grade One."
The man in the gold robe added.
For a moment, whether it was the man in the blue robe behind the one in the gold robe or the man in the green who stood behind Keller, they all nodded in agreement.
’Demons’ simply could not become alchemists or Artifact Refiners.
It was an ’ironclad rule’ of the Cloud Skies Continent.
For countless years, there’d never been a ’Demon’ who had broken this iron rule.
"I just said he might not be human. When did I ever say he was a ’Demon’?"
Jakai Yez swept a glance at the man in the gold robe and countered with a question.
"Then what do you mean..."
The man in the gold robe paused, unable to hide his surprise.
"Odd Species!"
Under the curious gaze of the four men, Jakai Yez slowly spoke, uttering the two words.
Odd Species!
The moment Jakai said this, it was as if a thunderbolt struck from a clear sky, causing all four listeners, including Holland Keller, to be taken aback.
They were, of course, not unfamiliar with ’Odd Species.’
Odd Species were the offspring of ’humans’ and ’Demons,’ either ’waste’ or ’monsters.’
The latter possessed unfathomable and unique ’Divine Abilities.’
Furthermore, their martial Dao talent was exceptionally astonishing, far surpassing ordinary humans and ’Demons.’
Most importantly, ’Odd Species’ could also become Grade One alchemists and Artifact Refiners because half of the human blood within them allowed them to condense red flame and fire for crafting, unlike pure ’Demons’ who were incapable.
"Now that Jakai mentions it... it’s indeed possible! He really could be Odd Species."
After a moment, Keller was the first to recover and murmured.
He then turned and asked the man always behind him, dressed in green, "Forest Coldring, what do you think?"
"Very likely."
Forest Coldring nodded, his words sparse.
"Odd Species!"
The man in the gold robe and the one following him in the blue robe now showed shock on their faces.
At last, the man in the gold robe nodded, "Unless I’m mistaken, he should indeed be ’Odd Species!’ After all, the ’achievement’ he made at his age is simply unattainable by ordinary humans."
The others also nodded their heads, concurring.
"Whether or not he is ’Odd Species’... this time, I must pry the method of concocting Pill Medicines with a purity of ’ninety percent’ or higher from his mouth."
Keller’s eyes gleamed more greedily, speaking almost word for word.
"Forest Coldring alone is enough to stand on equal footing with that old guy, Alaric Gagnon... As long as Forest Coldring keeps Alaric Gagnon occupied, for the few of us, to suppress the other Martial Emperor Realm fighters of the Gagnon family will be a breeze."
The man in the gold robe stated, "So, taking Wyatt Barnes away won’t be difficult. However, Keller, you need to be prepared that even if we capture him, he might not reveal the method of concocting Pill Medicines with purity above ’ninety percent.’"
"There’s no need to worry about that."
Keller stated with full confidence.
"Oh? Do you have a plan?"
The man in the gold robe’s eyes brightened. "Let’s hear it."
"That Wyatt has a woman by his side with no mean strength, suspected to be a ’Demon Emperor!’ Her power should be at the Second Layer of the Demon Emperor Realm, equivalent to the Second Layer of the Martial Emperor Realm,"
Keller slowly said.
"You had already told us this...
I’m asking you, what method will you use to pry open Wyatt Barnes’ mouth?" the man in the gold robe frowned and pressed.
"The reason I bring up that woman is precisely that this relates to her," Keller said irritably, glaring at the man in the gold robe. Then he continued in a leisurely fashion, "If Wyatt Barnes doesn’t cooperate, in front of him, I will torment that woman thoroughly... until he agrees to cooperate."
Towards the end, an ominous smile crept across Keller’s lips.
"You really are... despicable!"
The man in the gold robe took a deep look at Keller and said, "But how can you be sure he’ll reveal his ’secrets’ for that woman? That’s not just any secret."
"That’s something you don’t know... That kid is quite the romantic," Keller said with a laugh. "Last time, he nearly lost his life for that woman."
