Chapter 46: Anka
At one point in the Fourth Age, the number of alchemists on the continent of Irish cards reached a peak.
Similarly, alchemy reached its peak during this period, and it was even possible for high-level alchemy to "bring the dead back to life", which seemed to be a miracle.
At the same time, the rapid development of alchemy has brought many magic potions to mankind.
And there are some potions that are not destined to appear in history.
In the year 347 of the magic calendar, one of the most legendary alchemists on the continent, Cassel, after a lot of experiments, finally succeeded in creating the greatest potion in the entire history of potions, the talisman of life - Anka.
It's the potion of eternal life!
Ankh is the potion work that Cassel used to step into the legendary alchemist.
All professions on the Irish Card Continent, as long as you want to step from a ninth-level powerhouse to a legend, you must complete two conditions.
First, it is true that the level of one's own occupation has transcended all the occupational levels divided by human beings, and has reached a level that no one can evaluate.
Second, accomplish a great cause.
And what the Alchemist class needs to do is to make a legendary-level potion on its own!
There is no doubt that the Immortal Potion Ankh is a Legendary level potion, and even its own meaning has surpassed that of a legendary potion.
At the Alchemist's Career Appraisal Conference, Kassel took out the world's only potion of immortality, and proudly declared that it was his proudest work.
After the joint evaluation of many legendary alchemists of the Alchemist Association, the bottle of potion called Anka in front of him may indeed make the user's cells no longer age, and continue to provide life force for the other party, so as to achieve the purpose of "eternal life".
The strong people present are all crazy, even the legendary powerhouses can't resist the erosion of the years, and sooner or later one day it can only be just a handful of loess.
And those power classes on the mainland are even more salivating about it, what they are most afraid of is death, no matter how big the land they sit on, they can't stop the will to die!
But now, Ankka has changed all that.
From this day on, no matter day or night, whether it is the so-called order camp or the evil villains recognized by the mainland, there has been a bloody battle for this.
Empire, religion, legendary powerhouse, evil organization, hidden organization.
There is chaos on the continent, and everyone has lost their minds under the temptation of eternal life.
Some kings brazenly provoked wars between the two countries in order to obtain the anka that had been exiled to other countries, and the legendary powerhouses even fought in the royal city with many people.
Cassel and his Potion of Immortality became the target of the Irish card continent for a while!
Everyone began to promise benefits to Cassel, who had mastered Anka, and offered various conditions that would make almost all the legendary powerhouses feel excited, while some chose to threaten, they kidnapped Cassel's wife and children, and killed Cassel's siblings and his students.
In the end, Kassel lost not only Anka's potion formula, but all of his family and friends.
It's just that, after paying countless costs, no one was able to get the elixir of immortality and its formula, and the person who got Ankh chose to blow himself up under the siege of countless strong men.
And just like that, the only bottle of immortality potion in the world and its recipe disappeared from this world.
And there is also a lost alchemist who has disappeared, and he seems to have evaporated from the world, and no one can find a clue about him.
"Is that the end of it?" Ivan asked.
In the small shop of Wolf and Spices, the black-robed shopkeeper sits with Ivan, who is telling Ivan, a man with little knowledge (Ivan has never received human education since he was a child) about the "Black Death", one of the major events in the Irish continent.
"That's what people thought at the time, and after a lot of fighting, it has done damage to countless innocent people. And years later, just when people had almost forgotten about it......"
The beginning of the Anka incident was not really clear to the people, who only hearsay, and knew that the big people were angry with each other for a cherished potion.
The potion of immortality was a taboo for these big people, they blocked all news about immortality at that time, and it is only possible for you to know that immortality was once not just a beautiful fantasy if you have reached a certain level.
Ten years have passed since then.
In the year 357 of the Magic Calendar, a huge plague broke out on the continent, and this plague began to ferment rapidly from the south, and before long, the human countries and even the sunset prairie had become a paradise for plagues.
People with initial lymph masses in the groin or armpits, followed by blue-black herpes on the arms and thighs and other parts of the body, followed by chills, high fever, confusion, severe headaches, and sometimes central vomiting, tachypnea, tachycardia, a drop in blood pressure, and septic shock.
The disease progresses abnormally rapidly, and often dies in 1~3 days. The deceased's skin was extensively hemorrhaged, ecchymosis, cyanosis, necrosis, and the body was purple-black after death.
As a result, people image it as the "Black Death".
The Holy See's magic could only help relieve the suffering, but it could not cure it at all, and the mainland fell into a panic for a while.
To solve this strange plague, the Alchemist Guild gathered almost all the high-level alchemists on the Irish Card continent, including orc witch doctors and one or two elven healers.
But the most desperate thing is that these high-level alchemists who have even reached the legendary level still have no idea what to do with this virus when they gather together!
The president of the Alchemist Guild was a gray-haired old man, and he was a little disheartened as the person presiding over the meeting.
The old man looked at the frowning crowd and couldn't help but sigh, he missed the proud young man a little.
The young man was the old man's most proud student, and he put all his heart and soul into cultivating him, because he believed that this gifted young man would one day surpass himself and take alchemy to a level never before and lay the foundation for a new era in Potions!
And the young man did not disappoint the old man, no matter what level of alchemist, he maintained the fastest promotion record.
Finally, one day, he researched an epoch-making potion.
While the old man was happy for him, he was also deeply worried.
He tells the young man that his potion has the potential to bring disaster to him, and even affect the entire continent.
The old man did not advise young people to use this potion as the work of their own advancement to the legendary alchemist.
But the young man didn't listen to the old man, he insisted on using this work to advance to the legend, which would allow him to surpass the old man and become the greatest alchemist on the continent!
The old man sighed, he knew that he might not be able to dissuade the young man.
Just as the old man thought, on the day this legendary potion was released, the mainland was in chaos.
A large number of innocent people have been implicated, and these strong men who stand at the top of the continent do not hide the greed in their hearts.
Everything seems insignificant in the face of eternal life.
The old man has no way to protect the young man, he is old.
Maybe many people would sell him a face because of his qualifications, but now they don't pay attention to his old face at all.
The end was undoubtedly a tragedy.
When witnessing the death of his beloved wife and children, the young man's heart is already dead.
The old man looked at the young man, his eyes long gone from the pride, only gloom and endless pain.
The old man understood that what he was here now was probably just an empty shell that had lost his soul.
The old man brought the young man back to his dwelling, and in the long course of time, the young man's relationship with him was no longer as simple as that of master and apprentice, and they might sometimes be more like father and son.
However, one day when the old man returned home from the association, he found that the young man had long since disappeared, and the old man could not find any clues about the young man after all his connections.
Alas, if, only if...
If he's still around, maybe...
The old man felt a little bitter.
Maybe that's fate!
However, just when everyone was helpless, an alchemist who was standing guard outside rushed in in panic and reported to them that a man was standing at the door of the Alchemist Guild, saying that he had a way to solve the epidemic.
The higher-ups were a little surprised, they didn't expect that when so many high-level alchemists couldn't find any way, someone actually stood up and said that they could solve this epidemic.
With the mentality of a dead horse being a live horse doctor, they walked to the door of the association.
At the doorway stood a man in a black robe, the lower half of the man's face was wrapped in a bandage for some reason, looking a little crazy.
He stood alone in front of countless legends and high-ranking people, his face grim.
Then, the black-robed man said something that these people would never forget.
"I am the source of the disease."
