Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Tremendous Shock
Seeing Orion Cruz becoming enraged, Colten Marston wasn’t surprised. He was prepared for it.
"Marston, you need to return the ’Strong Origin Pill’. This is madness!"
Taking a deep breath, Orion Cruz put back the Strong Origin Pill into its bottle, resealed it, and handed it to Colten Marston.
However, Marston didn’t accept it, saying, "You better follow the usual practice and observe it. You’re not following the rules..."
Orion Cruz frowned and said sternly, "Is a test actually needed? Do you think this Strong Origin Pill can compare to the one just auctioned off?"
Despite his words, Orion Cruz once again took out the Strong Origin Pill and began to examine it closely.
Marston watched Orion Cruz’s expression attentively, hoping for a miracle to happen, even though the chance was slim...
It didn’t take long before Marston noticed that Orion Cruz’s angry expression had frozen over.
Could it be a success!
Marston’s eyes lit up.
"This..."
Now, Orion Cruz’s angry expression vanished, replaced by excitement, "It’s... It’s a work of pure genius, pure genius! This is perfect, too perfect!"
Marston was taken aback, "Sir Cruz, are... are you okay?"
He has known this Seventh-Rank alchemist for a while, but he can firmly say that this was the first time he saw Cruz this excited.
Even when the purity of another Strong Origin Pill was identified as seventy-five percent, Cruz showed nowhere near this level of excitement.
"Marston, who consigned this pill? I want to meet him."
Orion Cruz abruptly got up from his seat, completely losing his composure.
"Sir Cruz, you are..."
Marston was a bit baffled. Could it be that this Strong Origin Pill really has a purity of over 80 percent?
Was that not incredibly unbelievable?
"Marston, do you know the purity of this Strong Origin Pill?" Orion Cruz took another deep breath, suppressing his excitement as he slowly asked.
"Could it be, really more than 80 percent?"
Marston was flabbergasted, his face filled with horror. If it really was a pill with purity over 80 percent, this auction would obviously make the Marston Family renowned!
Even though pills with over 75 percent purity are rare, there are still some in the whole Green Forest Royal Country.
But pills with purity over 80 percent...
They seemed to have never appeared in the history of the Green Forest Royal Country!
"80 percent?"
When Orion Cruz heard Marston’s words, he was stunned, "Who told you that the purity of this Strong Origin Pill is 80 percent?"
"Not 80 percent? 79 percent?" Marston asked, his face full of confusion, and his excited emotions slightly calmed down.
He thought, how could there be a pill with more than 80 percent purity...
"79 percent? Humph! The purity of this Strong Origin Pill, if I am not mistaken, should be at least 90 percent!" Orion Cruz chuckled, and confidently responded. As he spoke, his face revealed another wave of excitement.
For an alchemist, the chance to come across a pill with more than 90 percent purity was an immense honor...
What he most wanted to do now was to meet the consigner of this pill and, if possible, get in touch with the alchemist who made the Strong Origin Pill. If he could learn from them, his achievements in alchemy would certainly take a big leap!
So, Orion Cruz was absolutely impatient, eager to meet the client who consigned the Strong Origin Pill with over 90 percent purity.
"Marston, take me to that distinguished guest now!"
Orion Cruz was bursting with urgency, his chest heaving like a bellows, and his eyes shone with excitement.
However, he quickly realized that Marston wasn’t reacting at all, as if he hadn’t heard him at all.
"More than 90 percent?"
Marston was stupefied, his heart jolted, and in the next moment, his entire person seemed to be strangled, his face flushed red.
He might not be an alchemist, but he knew what the implication was for a pill with over 90 percent purity!
Heavens!
This kind of pill is definitely a mythical existence, only found in legends!
And now, it’s appearing in their Marston Family auction?
"Marston!"
After hearing Orion Cruz’s stern voice, Marston snapped back to reality, "Sir Cruz, I apologize, I wasn’t paying attention."
"Take me to that distinguished guest now!"
Orion Cruz repeated, still sounding urgent.
Inside the VIP suite, Wyatt Barnes was drowsy, expecting the Marston family auction to appeal to him, but so far, out of the five items auctioned off, none had caught his interest.
Instead, Jovie Lee and Keer were partial to it.
Fill Bear stood behind Wyatt, wearing a calm expression, not seeming to care about the outside world at all.
"Knock! Knock!"
Just then, a knock on the door sounded, and the attendant’s voice came through, "Guests, our manager wants to meet with you."
Wyatt Barnes came back to his senses, his eyebrows raising slightly, a smirk forming on his lips, he wasn’t surprised at all.
The Strong Origin Pill he made, though it was a failed product, had a purity of ’91 percent’.
A pill with 91 percent purity was not only rare in Green Forest Royal Country, but also in the Great Turdo Dynasty and even the entire outside territory, as not even every alchemist could refine it.
This was the privilege of a Martial Emperor serving as an ’Emperor Grade Alchemist’!
He had guessed that as soon as the Marston Family’s seventhrank alchemist identified the purity of the Strong Origin Pill, they would surely come to him.
"Come in."
Wyatt Barnes spoke indifferently.
Wyatt Barnes saw Colten Marston again and also noticed the elderly man behind him. Although this was the first time he met this man, Wyatt immediately guessed his identity.
He must be the ’seventh-grade alchemist’ from the Marston Clan.
"Guest."
Colten Marston looked at Wyatt Barnes with a gaze full of reverence.
What a joke!
If someone can pull out a Strong Origin Pill with a purity over ninety percent, even if he considered it with his butt, he can realize that the other party is extraordinary.
Behind him was clearly a terrifying alchemist!
No, calling an alchemist who can refine pills with a purity over ninety percent as ’terrifying’ is no longer adequate.
’Abnormal’ wouldn’t be too exaggerated to describe them!
"What’s the matter?"
Wyatt Barnes glanced at Colten Marston indifferently and asked.
Colten Marston took a deep breath and introduced the old man beside him to Wyatt, "Guest, this is Master Orion Cruz, the seventh-grade alchemist of our Marston Clan. Master Orion Cruz wanted to see you."
"Honorable guest."
Orion Cruz looked at Wyatt Barnes with an excited expression, "May I ask, which distinguished alchemist refined this Strong Origin Pill that you consigned?"
Facing Orion Cruz’s intense gaze, Wyatt Barnes shook his head, "I don’t know."
What?
Orion Cruz froze, and so did Colten Marston.
Wyatt continued, "The Strong Origin Pill was given to me by an old fellow... But that was a few months ago. I only have one left. I’ve taken the others."
After hearing this, Orion Cruz looked at Wyatt Barnes deeply. Noticing no signs of deceit on his face, he asked, "Guest, do you know where that senior has gone?"
Wyatt Barnes shook his head, "I don’t know. I only met him once. He said I was good-looking and pleasing to his eyes, so he gave me a few Strong Origin Pills... At first, I thought he was stingy, but later I realized that the Strong Origin Pills he gave me were not ordinary!"
"Hah... If I had known that his Strong Origin Pills were so good, I would have asked him for a few hundred more."
By the end, Wyatt Barnes had an expression of ’regret’.
A few hundred?
Orion Cruz and Colten Marston exchanges glances, both wore bitter smiles on their faces.
This young man’s audacity knew no bounds!
This was ’Strong Origin Pill’ with a purity of over ninety percent; it would already be a great fortune if he could obtain a few.
"By the way, this Strong Origin Pill should sell for some money, right?"
Wyatt Barnes looked at Colten Marston and Orion Cruz, and asked like a naïve young man.
"Guest, rest assured, we will definitely auction it for a price beyond your expectations... However, guest, our Marston Auction House has a rule to take one-tenth as commission."
Colten Marston added.
"One-tenth? Isn’t that too much?"
Wyatt Barnes frowned.
"Guest, our Marston Auction House has always followed this rule. Are you still going to consign this ’Strong Origin Pill’?"
Colten Marston asked.
"If it’s one-tenth commission, I won’t consign it."
Wyatt Barnes shook his head.
Colten Marston was taken aback, "Guest, you... want to reconsider?"
"No need, I won’t consign it, give it back."
Wyatt said decisively. At the same time, he extended his hand to Orion Cruz, who was holding the Strong Origin Pill.
Orion Cruz took a deep breath and looked at Wyatt Barnes, "Guest, if you really consign it to us, we won’t charge the commission."
"Master Orion Cruz!"
Colten Marston was taken aback.
"Manager Marston, I believe that even if the Clan Chief were here, he would also make this decision. You should realize that once this Strong Origin Pill is auctioned off at our Marston Auction House, it would be extremely significant for our auction house."
Orion Cruz said solemnly.
Colten Marston hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Okay, let’s go with Master Orion Cruz... Guest, we won’t charge the commission, will you continue to consign the Strong Origin Pill to our Marston Auction House?"
"Since you’re not charging a commission, I’m naturally willing to consign it."
Wyatt Barnes said solemnly.
"Thank you, guest."
Colten Marston and Orion Cruz nodded at Wyatt Barnes and left directly.
Knowing that the ’Strong Origin Pill’ with a purity of over ninety percent was just a serendipitous gain for Wyatt Barnes, the two of them lost interest in him.
The door to the private box was closed again.
Jovie Lee, who had been holding back her laughter, couldn’t help but laugh. A beautiful and radiant smile spread across her face, "You rascal, when you were fooling them just now, it seemed so real... If I didn’t know better, I might have been fooled by you."
"Yeah, Young Master, your acting was really good."
Keer nodded in agreement, her pretty face filled with admiration...
"The thing I’m most curious about now is how much this ’Strong Origin Pill’ can sell for."
Wyatt Barnes squinted and smiled faintly.
Just then, the auctioneer’s voice about the current auction item was heard, causing Wyatt’s eyes to suddenly brighten.
"Silver Separation Grass!"
