Chapter 227: Elven Holy Maiden
Chapter 227: Elven Holy Maiden
Adventurers and knights who delved into the abyss were not particularly wealthy.
If you asked them to carry several bottles of 1,600 copper coins stamina potions with them, it would be unrealistic when they needed to drink one when tired or sleepy.
Not to mention, it would only have a 10% recovery effect, which wasn't much.
One must understand that the adventure in the wilderness relied entirely on luck. When luck wasn't on their side, they might not even earn 100 copper coins.
It would be a waste of money, better to save up and exchange it for a suitable weapon or buy two protective magical talismans.
Charlotte didn't intend to create a luxury item but rather wanted to make this potion a highly high-cost-effective healing kit that adventurers would enthusiastically purchase and repurchase.
After thinking for a while, he decided to price this new stamina potion at 800 copper coins per bottle.
He also gave it a new name: Golden Stamina Potion.
Despite its common name, it was quite fitting for this bottle of light golden potion.
For 800 copper coins, an intermediate knight could recover 25% of their stamina. Within this realm, it should be unparalleled.
While he still had the ingredients, Charlotte spent the night refining five batches of the Golden Stamina Potion, producing fifty bottles.
Tomorrow, he planned to put these potions up for sale and see if he could get some orders.
He also planned to give twenty bottles to Leo. The market in Calva was incomparable to the abyss.
In addition to the natives of Calva, adventurers from various races also settled there. That's why Calva had the largest adventurers' guild and numerous mercenary groups on the Isor Continent.
If Leo can open up a market in Calva, Charlotte will become his first distributor.
No more idiots in the Green-eyed Toad faction. Charlotte can only put the refined potions on the shelves, and by the way, add the Golden Stamina Potion to the potion catalog.
Back in the second-floor room, Charlotte finally had the chance to open the system's marketplace.
He had accumulated a wealth value of 475,780 copper coins, which meant he could directly exchange it for 47 bottles of Power Potion.
And his current strength had reached 6,200kg.
He only needed to consume 38 bottles of Power Potion to break through to the Advanced Knight level.
The Advanced Knight level was a hurdle that countless talented individuals fell short of.
That's why when he was just over twenty years old, breaking through to the Advanced Mage in the Healing department and becoming a rare genius was considered a once-in-a-century event.
Healing mages were already rare, and it was even rarer for someone to become an Advanced Mage at the age of twenty.
Even with Leo's family background, having a grandfather who was an Elder of the Physicians Association, he was still just an Intermediate Mage in the Healing department.
By the time Vivian reached this age, she had already become an Intermediate Mage, and her talent was much stronger than Leo's. If she could break through to Advanced Mage before the age of twenty, she would also be considered a genius among Healing mages.
But if she still couldn't break through before she turned thirty, then she would just be an average person.
The hurdle of the Advanced level blocked countless people and could never break through in their lifetime.
Mages focused on their understanding and control of magic.
Knights, on the other hand, constantly pushed the limits of their bodies.
In this aspect, his former fiance, Elizabeth, was an extraordinary figure among knights.
It was said that she had already broken through to the Sixth level and become a legendary knight.
Charlotte had advanced his level all the way relying on the Power Potions.
But Elizabeth, as a mere mortal, had already become a legendary knight at the age of twenty.
At her age, most dragons were still dragon babies on Dragon Island.
Charlotte had no memories of being rejected, so he did not feel the humiliation of pursuing someone who had left him.
His only motivation to become stronger was to survive in the Abyss, on the continent of Isor.
After breaking through to the Advanced Knight level, he would have a solid foundation to establish himself in the Abyss.
Even if he encountered opponents like Wolverine and Emos, he would have the strength to protect himself.
Survive, work hard to make money, and continue to develop the clinic and alchemy workshop.
One bottle of Power Potion at a time, he would build a miraculous knight.
Charlotte exchanged all his wealth value for Power Potions and drank twenty bottles in one go.
To prevent problems in controlling his increased strength due to rapid growth, he planned to break through to the Advanced Knight level in three stages.
He would drink seventeen bottles tomorrow.
And the remaining one bottle the day after tomorrow.
After drinking twenty bottles of Power Potion in a row, gaining 2,000kg of strength, his body turned red and was covered in sweat.
When the effect of the potion faded, Charlotte turned on the cold water switch to wash away the impurities from his body, feeling refreshed and full of power.
It was still dark outside, and he had no sleepiness. He decided to take his sword and practice on the third-floor balcony, allowing his body to adapt to the increased strength.
A knight with power alone can only be called a brute.
Only by truly mastering the power within one's body and being able to unleash it through martial arts can one become outstanding at the same level, or even kill stronger opponents.
Charlotte killing Emos despite holding a stack of magical scrolls was a testament to this fact.
Deep in the night, it seemed that the darkness had no relation with the city of Calva.
Two giant lamps stood at the eastern and western ends, illuminating the entire city.
Except for the more lively brothels and red-light districts at night, the city was already asleep.
But the white tower, which held a high position in the eyes of the physicians, was still brightly lit.
In front of the tower of the Physicians Association, Elder Chester paced back and forth at the entrance, occasionally looking up at the sky.
Behind him, a few members dressed in the uniform of the Physicians Association were waiting. As level five or six healing mages, they held a respectable status within the association. Yet here they were, standing in the cold wind with Chester, seemingly waiting for a distinguished guest.
Just then, a colorful giant bird with a wingspan of over twenty meters flew across the sky.
"They're here!" Chester's eyes lit up, and he instinctively straightened his coat.
The other doctors also perked up, straightening their posture one by one.
After circling the white tower, the giant bird landed in the square in front of it, with two elves sitting on its back.
The elven girl wore a long white dress with golden edges, tall and slender. Her long golden hair cascaded down her back, and her fair skin was white. Her gestures exuded an air of nobility.
However, her exquisite face was slightly furrowed with a touch of pain. She pressed her hand against her Abmen, seeming to be in discomfort.
Behind her was the slightly older elf, assisting her to maintain her balance. She was Elven Guard Commander Betty.
Chester led the doctors to approach them, smiling as he said, "Saintess Louise, I am Elder Chester of the Physicians Association. Welcome."
"Elder Chester, thank you for your welcome. Could you please take us to see President Hayward?" Betty supported Louise as they descended, a hint of urgency in her voice.
Louise seemed to find even speaking painful, but she smiled apologetically at Chester.
"Of course, please follow me." Chester immediately put away the formalities and took the lead.
Betty practically supported Louise and walked into the White Tower. She whispered in Louise's ear, "Hold on a little longer, we'll be able to see Master Hayward soon."
"If even Master couldn't do anything, can Master Hayward save me?" Louise's voice was weak, tinged with despair.
"This is the Physicians Association, with the best doctors on the continent of Iso. They will find a way," Betty consoled, lifting Louise Princess and quickening her pace.
On the ninth floor of the White Tower, in the treatment room where the highest level restoration array was set up, Hayward sat calmly in the seat at the head.
Except for Chester, all nine members of the Elder Council of the Physicians Association were present.
What made the Physicians Association attach such importance was Louise, who had urgently come for treatment today.
As the elven Saintess, Louise was the disciple of High Priest Benjamin and had long been recognized as the next Elf Queen, awaiting her coronation ceremony after reaching adulthood.
And tonight, Hayward received an urgent request for help from the elves.
Louise had suddenly fallen seriously ill and needed the assistance of the Physicians Association. She had already set off for Calva.
Upon receiving the news, the Physicians Association took it very seriously, and Hayward directly gathered all the members of the Elder Council here, awaiting Louise's arrival.
The position of the Physicians Association was indeed quite lofty, but Benjamin was well aware that this lofty position was bestowed by the rulers of various races.
Building relationships with the leaders of each race was something every president of the Physicians Association had done.
As the next Elf Queen, if Louise's illness could be cured, it meant that the Physicians Association would still enjoy its lofty status in the Elven Forest.
However, the elves were known as messengers of the Life Goddess and the Nature Goddess, possessing unique insights and abilities in the field of healing arts. High Priest Benjamin himself was a ninth-level healing mage.
What kind of illness did this Saintess have that required her to travel so far to Calva for medical treatment? This was an unknown that even Hayward was unsure of, which was why he had summoned all ten elders to prevent any unexpected emergencies.
Among them, the most anxious one was Elder Adolf.
It was said that Adolf and Benjamin were once hailed as the unmatched duo of the Elven Forest, with their strength and talent on par with each other. There were many speculations outside as to which one of them would become the Elven King.
However, unexpectedly, Adolf left the Elven Forest and came to Calva, becoming one of the elders who established the Physicians Association.
Benjamin, on the other hand, stayed in the Elven Forest but never ascended to the throne, serving only as the High Priest.
It wasn't until more than ten years ago when Benjamin took Louise as his disciple and, after she began to fulfill her potential, news emerged that she would become the Elf Queen after reaching adulthood.
"They're here." Hayward looked up at the door.
