Chapter 276 Unbanning Potion

The gold barriers produced by the Dragon Moon Purple Gold Workshop are not actually very expensive, generally fluctuating between 1.5 million and 2 million. Not too expensive, but not cheap either. The main issue is that they are complex to manufacture and are one-time use items, only able to withstand attacks for a few minutes. Frankly speaking, those who are destined to die will still die; the cost-effectiveness is quite low. The problem lies with the soul crystals... A single α6-grade soul crystal, if of good quality, can be worth over 5 million. Add that to the gold barrier itself, and it becomes much more expensive than that batch of herbs, more than doubling the price.

Clara began to feel a bit excited. She feigned contemplation and said, "No problem, but there's no stock in Aurora City. You'll have to wait a few days. Now, let's talk about..."

"You're just too impatient, you know, haste makes waste..." Old Wang chuckled and dropped his third bomb: "I need one last thing, Sky-Shattering Thunder."

It is a complex casting rune craft, a dangerous large-scale destructive weapon tightly controlled by the rulers in both the Nine Gods and the Blade, as well as among the Sea Clans.

However, compared to the previous two items, this one is much cheaper, around 200,000 per unit.

Clara smiled slightly, "No problem, I have some in the warehouse. I'll give you five, okay, Wang Feng? We—"

"Five isn't enough," Old Wang said matter-of-factly, "I want two hundred."

Two... two hundred???

Clara opened her mouth, unsure how to react. It took her at least three to five seconds to regain her composure: "Are you crazy!"

"How about three hundred?"

"..." Clara fell silent. She could see that Wang Feng was serious, but...

Just the materials and the gold barriers already amounted to over ten million, and that might not even be enough. Adding two hundred Sky-Shattering Thunders would push the total straight to fifty million, and it might still be difficult to secure them. After all, Sky-Shattering Thunders are quite rare on the market. While she had channels to obtain them, it was usually in small batches of ten or eight. This guy was asking for two hundred as if they were cabbages on the street!

To be honest, apart from the Sea Clans, only the Nine Gods Empire could afford such extravagance.

"..." Clara took a deep breath, deciding not to waste any more words. Fifty million... Wang Feng would have to offer something specific to make this deal happen: "What about the magic potion? Have you succeeded in your research?"

"There's no way it's that easy." Old Wang rolled his eyes at her.

What?! So you're just toying with me?

Clara's tone instantly turned cold: "So you were joking with me?"

"See, now you're getting worked up. What’s there to be angry about? But I must say, you have a certain charm even when you’re upset." As Old Wang spoke, he already had two bottles of green potion in his hands.

The equipment issue should have been taken care of long ago. The reason it was delayed for a few more days was to refine this concoction.

Frodo's Tears can significantly enhance arcane power and remove all curses targeting arcane magic within a certain period, without any level restrictions.

To be honest, breaking the curse of the sea race is almost impossible, but Frodo's Tears are almost like an antidote. Not only can they work on ghost-level sea race powerhouses, but their effect on curses is far better than that of Eagle Eye, and they can even slightly enhance arcane power, though the effect is time-limited. However, they truly allow sea race powerhouses to become stronger on land!

Of course, Old Wang gave it a more understandable name.

"Sea God's Eyes," Old Wang said with a smile: "This is what your sea race needs."

Clara was stunned. Didn't he say it didn't succeed?

"The potion wasn't refined by me," Wang Feng explained: "It was done by my master. You know, my master has been in seclusion at Rose for years. Do you think he was researching something else? He has been working on the problem of the sea race for a long time. My Eagle Eye was modeled after this, but Sea God's Eyes are the real deal. It's just that the complexity is beyond my current capabilities. These two bottles are the last stock I managed to sneak out."

Wang Feng's master is Leilong, a fact known throughout the continent. Leilong not only excels in runes but is also a top expert in potions. Once potion crafting reaches a certain level, it inevitably involves runes, which are the foundation of all things.

Clara stared at the two green potions in Wang Feng's hand, her mouth opening and closing: "Just these two bottles? Without the formula, you don’t even know how they were made, and you want fifty million worth of goods from me?"

"My dear lady..." Old Wang said earnestly: "Do you think this is child's play? Let's not talk about other things. A curse that has plagued your sea race for hundreds of years, and you think a few million lios will solve it? Isn’t that just a joke?"

"Don’t say fifty million; if someone could give the sea race a glimmer of hope, do you believe someone wouldn’t be willing to pay a higher price? It’s only because of our relationship that I’ve risked everything, even the risk of being expelled from my master’s door, to steal these. Don’t say fifty million; selling them to you for five hundred million would still be a bargain!"

Clara knew very well that if there really was a solution, money would not be an issue. No matter how much, the sea race could come up with it.

"But..." Clara hesitated, though she managed the Golden Baby Trading Company, it wasn't her personal property. If there were significant losses, the royal family would certainly inquire.

"No buts, this is a one-time deal. If you want to buy, buy now; if not, I'm leaving." Old Wang shrugged indifferently, "This time I went to Dragon City at great risk. So, if you don't believe me, you can test it right here."

Clara stared at the two bottles of magic potion in Wang Feng's hand, lost in thought—should she take the risk?

"Are you really that foolish? Why not let Soraka try it? I know he looks a bit dim, but he's at least a ghost-level expert. Besides, he's not of the royal blood, so his life isn't as precious. Just have him drink one bottle to see if it works."

...

"Princess, Mr. Wang Feng." Soraka always seemed to wear that same ingratiating smile.

To be honest, for a top-tier expert of the Sea Lion clan, assisting Clara in managing the Golden Baby Trading Company and serving as a steward was a bit of an overkill, but he had adapted well and even began to enjoy this lifestyle.

Clara, focused solely on the effectiveness of the potion, was impatient and didn't want to engage in small talk. She pointed to the potion bottle on the table: "Drink it!"

Testing the potion again...

A fleeting trace of resentment flashed in Soraka's eyes, but it quickly vanished.

In front of Princess Clara, he couldn't afford to hesitate. He quickly picked up the potion bottle and drank it down.

"Leave some!" Clara finally remembered to remind him. It was just to observe the effect; there was no need to drink every last drop. If the potion was genuine, one bottle was worth twenty-five million euros, and each drop was worth ten thousand euros... But that aside, the key was that there wasn't any extra. Even a few drops left at the bottom would be enough for the clan's potion masters to study the components and experiment with.

As soon as she finished speaking, changes began to occur in Soraka's body.

The effects of the potion came on too quickly, and unlike the gradual stirring deep within the soul caused by Eagle Eye, this was a powerful and direct impact on the body.

The 'dryness' he felt on land instantly disappeared, replaced by a sense of fullness and pleasure throughout his body, as if he were back in the ocean. Abundant arcane energy flowed continuously from his body, nourishing the 'parched' state he had been in.

Soraka's eyes suddenly lit up. This feeling, it was just right!

It was different, completely different!

If the Eagle Eye previously gave him the sensation of a fish about to die of thirst receiving a tiny sip of water, then at this moment, he felt as if the fish had returned to the river and the dragon to the sea; there seemed to be no difference between land and sea anymore!

What an honor, what a great honor! To be the first in the history of the sea race to experience the lifting of restrictions on land!

At this point, Soraka didn't need to say much. The powerful and terrifying arcane energy now filled her entire body, overflowing uncontrollably. In Old Wang's eyes, Soraka still looked like the two-meter-tall Soraka, but the spiritual impression she gave was that of a massive, terrifying sea beast, for whom stirring up the ocean seemed as easy as flicking its tail.

What the hell is this? Damn.

Fortunately, this power was quickly suppressed by Soraka.

Clara's face also showed barely contained excitement. She knew the potion was real, effective on ghost-level strong beings, and with excellent results! The question was, how long could it last?

Old Wang sipped his tea leisurely from the side.

One minute, two minutes... five minutes passed.
