Chapter 432: 426: Ultimate Talent
“Impossible!”
That was the first thought that burst into Jade Bailey’s mind, but looking at David Jones’ serious face, she hesitated again.
In the final analysis, she was just a Senior Alchemist, completely unaware of the power a Great Grandmaster alchemist possesses.
Perhaps this extremely troublesome terminal illness could be easily cured in the hands of a Great Grandmaster.
“If what you say is true, then my life is yours from nowon!” Jade Bailey, suppressing her inner turmoil and expectation, said word by word, “If you don’t believe me, I can make a Death Contract with you.”
David Jones was suddenly taken aback and looked at Jade Bailey intently.
The Death Contract is a secret treasure passed down from ancient times, with nine levels. The higher the level, the more binding the contract. A Level IX Death Contract is even more terrifying than a Legend Contrast.
According to historical records, even if a Legendary Powerful One dares defy a Level IX Death Contract after signing it, they would still end up with backlash from the Death Contract.
During ancient times, many different ability families search for Death Contracts to cultivate captured talents.
However, with the passage of time, only a very few Death Contracts have survived till the present.
With David Jones watching, Jade Bailey took out a mysterious scroll from the Star Ring that was emitting a faint fog and had a rainbow-colored glow on its surface, creating an aura of solemnity.
David Jones slightly moved the Illusion-Piercing Eye, and the scroll’s information instantly appeared in his mind.
“A Level V Death Contract, it seems that Jade Bailey is not only extremely talented, but she had also had a chance encounter.”
A Level V Death Contract can only be used to bind Class VI Trainers and below, and is not effective against Beast Control Power. Thus, David Jones didn’t pay much attention to it.
Next, under David Jones’ surprised gaze, Jade Bailey held the Death Contract in her hands as if she wanted to kneel on one knee and present it to him.
It was clear what Jade Bailey was trying to express. She was suggesting that if David Jones did not trust her enough, they could enter into a contract with the Death Contract.
“Stop, that’s not necessary,” David Jones hurriedly reached out and stopped her.
Due to the huge difference in physical strength between them, David Jones did not dare to use too much force, so as not to harm Jade Bailey, and she ended up half-kneeling on the ground.
“Get up, there is no need for you to risk your life for me. Let’s forget about this Death Contract. All you have to do for me is to make elixirs every day.”
Upon hearing this, Jade Bailey’s eyes darkened slightly.
Although the Death Contract would restrict her, it would also make her one of David Jones’ most trusted followers.
“Here’s my contact number. Once you’re done with this pharmacy and decided what to do next, come find me at Rosewood College. The promise I made still stands.”
Glancing briefly at the time, David Jones put a business card on her withered palm, then left the Pharmacy with Margaret Yule, leaving Jade Bailey standing in stupefaction.
“So miracles do exist in this world!”
As she watched the disappearing figure of David Jones, a previously unknown desire and anticipation surged in Jade Bailey’s heart.
No matter what David Jones saw in her to lift her out of the mire, starting from today, she would be David Jones’ staunch supporter!
As for the madness of making elixirs for twelve hours a day, it might be a part of the initiation of the Purple Haze Club!
With this in mind, Jade Bailey hesitated for a moment, and then a firm look flashed in her eyes.
She turned around and walked towards the medicine cabinet, reaching out with her right hand to unlock it.
“Click!”
With the white jade bottle rotating on the medicine cabinet, a tiny hidden door opened, and the Glassfire Rabbit hastily ran in and brought out a tightly packed box.
Looking at the box in Glassfire Rabbit’s teeth, Jade Bailey once again fell into her memories.
All the informed persons in Rosewood City thought that she, in her eagerness to succeed, ignored the warning of the accompanied Trainer, held firm to her own opinions, and risked triggering the anger of the Wind Dragon to enter its zone to gather elixir.
As a result of which caused the Wind Dragon’s retaliatory attack, leading to the complete annihilation of the Trainers who were on the protection mission.
But the real reason was that their group had accidentally entered a hidden relic with a randomly appearing entrance while collecting medicines in the mountains.
Inside the relic, there was no treasure, no heritage, only a mysteriously disappearing stone and a roughly five hundred year old Level VI Thunder, Dual Dragon Elixir Grass [Emperor Grass],
But their luck was bad, the exit point of the relic was not consistent with the entry point, directly resulting in them appearing near the zone of the Wind Dragon.
“I originally wanted to store up more assets, then use you to exchange for a Life-Returning Elixir, but I’m guessing that’s not necessary anymore,” Jade Bailey muttered to herself.
“If you have something to say, just say it.”
Looking at Margaret Yule who wanted to speak several times but stopped, David Jones said with a smile.
“A senior pharmacist is very worth winning over, but using a Class VII elixir might be a bit wasteful! Moreover, is the Purple Haze Club starting to implement a rule of twelve hours of daily alchemy?” She cautiously said.
“She’s different, she has the potential to become a Master or even a Grandmaster level pharmacist.
As for the new rule, if you implement it, I’m afraid all the students in the club will run away.”
David Jones glanced at Margaret Yule.
“Jade Bailey is different from others, her potential and talent need a long time of alchemy to develop!”
Margaret Yule frowned slightly, recalling Jade Bailey’s information in her mind.
Jade Bailey, being able to come out from a pharmacy workshop, a place that exists solely for making money, naturally has her unique traits.
Jade Bailey’s innate talent [Hard Practice] allows her to have some comprehension in the repetitive process of alchemy.
Which is to say, as long as she practices enough times, she would gradually gain control over the majority of the low-level elixir formulas.
Although this talent seems very good, as the pharmacist’s level gets higher and higher, the effect of hard practice would get weaker and weaker.
After all, the production of a cauldron of high-level elixir needs a large amount of spirit medicine, and each pharmacist’s chance for error is limited.
Let alone failing dozens of times, even three consecutive failures is enough to let an ordinary pharmacist lose the opportunity to progress further in their life.
Once, a pharmacy power tried to cultivate a Master level pharmacist with the innate talent [Hard Practice], but they found that it was completely an extremely unprofitable business, just the investment of resources alone could empty a second-rate beast control power.
Seeing Margaret Yule’s brows furrowed, David Jones laughed, but didn’t feel like explaining.
Initially, he just wanted to win over a tool person with Flare V Elixir Soul, but he unexpectedly discovered an anomaly on Jade Bailey.
Fortune favors misfortune, perhaps even Jade Bailey hasn’t noticed that, although her Arcane Star had severely downgrade, her innate talent [Hard Practice] had already started a new transformation.
Thinking of that unheard of ultimate talent, a glint flashed across David Jones’s eyes.
[Accumulate Merit]: It’s an innate talent undergoing transformation, as long as one studies hard, it can make the practiced skills achieve a level of proficiency.
Perhaps even David Jones himself had not expected, at the moment he saw Jade Bailey in Careful Heart Pharmacy, the wheel of fate had already began to turn.
