Me! The Strongest Alchemist! - Chapter 67

Chapter 67: Could Dyson be Mas?

At this moment, Mage Anthony, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly said, “Your Majesty, there’s one more thing. I don’t know if I should tell you!”

“It’s like this, Your Majesty. Some time ago, in the genealogy of our Pine faction, I had a great-grandson who had some distant blood relations with me. His name is Belek. He is the Chairman of the four largest trading unions in the Empire, the Sith Chamber of Commerce!

“It’s like this, Your Majesty. Some time ago, in the genealogy of our Pine faction, I had a great-grandson who had some distant blood relations with me. His name is Belek. He is the Chairman of the four largest trading unions in the Empire, the Sith Chamber of Commerce!

A few days ago, I sent my subordinates to look for Belek and asked him if he could help my country get 10,000 alchemical soldiers to come back and participate in the war against the Flame Empire for the Fire Essence Ore.

That Belek agreed without thinking. A few days later, Belek sent a subordinate to my residence and told me that he knew about Master Mas’s disciple, an alchemist named Dyson, and that he had ordered 10,000 alchemical soldiers! ”

When Harold, who was originally restless and impatient, heard this, he became interested. It seemed that the people under him were not that useless. After Anthony finished speaking, he immediately asked, “Where is that great grandson of yours called Belek now? Immediately send someone to find him. The sooner, the better!”

“Your Majesty, don’t be anxious. I’ve already gotten someone to inform Belek. He’s already arrived at the palace gate,” Mage Anthony said.

“Get him to come and see me. Remember, immediately!” Harold instructed.

Mage Anthony nodded and immediately left the main hall.

Not long after, Belek followed Mage Anthony to the main hall.

When Belek saw the dignified Harold, his fat body was trembling. It was the invisible pressure of a superior.

He did not expect to meet the founder of the Pine royal family, Harold.

Even if Belek felt that he was quite daring and had been in the business world for so many years, he had already trained to be daring.

However, facing Harold now, he was still inexplicably afraid. This feeling was like a rabbit seeing a lion. It was an instinctive fear.

“Your Majesty!” Belek knelt on the ground with his legs and pressed his forehead to the ground.

“Don’t be afraid, my dear Belek. Raise your head!”

“I heard from Anthony that you know Mas’s apprentice, a human named Dyson, right?” Harold asked quietly.

“Yes, Your Majesty, that’s true. We have a good relationship!”

“I’ve made a few deals with Master Mas through Dyson!” Belek looked up at Harold with a respectful expression.

“Have you seen Mas himself?” Harold continued.

“Your Majesty, I have never seen Master Mas in person. I only spoke to Master Mas through a voice transmission device in the Alchemy Tower. The other people who talked to me were Dyson!” Belek replied.

After a moment of silence, Harold said, “Was Dyson present when you and Mas were talking in the Alchemy Tower?”

“Dyson wasn’t present at that time!” Belek said.

“Dyson wasn’t there?”

“Then do you think that Dyson could be Mas?” Harold asked.

Upon hearing this, Belek looked at Harold in shock. Then, he reacted and smiled awkwardly. “Your Majesty, I don’t think Dyson is Master Mas!”

“Perhaps it’s because you haven’t met Dyson, Your Majesty. Dyson isn’t old. He shouldn’t be twenty years old!”

“Less than twenty years old?”

“Looks like my guess was wrong!”

“However, since you have a good relationship with that Mas’s disciple, I’ll give you a mission now!”

“No matter what, you have to figure out Mas’s identity from Dyson’s mouth. You have to know if he’s a human or a demi-human!”

“If possible, help me invite Mas to the palace!”

“Belek, if you can figure out Mas’s race, I can promise you that you will become a direct descendant of our Pine family!” Harold said.

Upon hearing this, Belek was so excited that his entire body trembled. “Your Majesty, even if I have to risk my life, I will definitely figure out Master Mas’s race!”

“All right, you can leave!” Harold waved his hand.

Belek rose and excused himself respectfully.

After Belek left, Harold looked at Anthony and asked, “Can this Belek be trusted?”

“Even if he’s a collateral descendant of the Pine family, he’s not a direct descendant. We can’t trust him completely!”

When Anthony heard this, he immediately replied, “Your Majesty, don’t worry. I’ll send someone to monitor him and ensure that he won’t do anything behind your back!”

“That’s for the best!”

“From now on, I declare that the Pine Family is in an emergency state. The appearance of Mas is a good thing and a bad thing for us!”

“In the empire, there are two nobles who are slightly weaker than our Pine family. They are monitoring their movements. If they have any intention of approaching Mas, tell me immediately!”

“Any threat must be killed in the cradle! The Pine bloodline will last forever in the empire!” Harold said coldly.

On the plains of the Dark Forest, outside the Alchemy Tower, Mas looked at the 15 rune turrets on the Alchemy Tower and smiled in satisfaction.

After a few days of hard work, Sha You and Leah finally carved all the rune turrets with Flaming Heavenly Runes.

Now, the Alchemy Tower could be considered to have powerful defensive capabilities.

Even a Level 5 professional would not be able to escape the attack of the rune turret as long as his physical body and strength were not too strong.

But Mas did not think that was enough.

Although he still had the Red Crystal Gargoyle as his defense, Mas hoped that the stronger the defense, the better.

For this, Mas planned to refine some rune turrets.

Although Mas had learned the alchemy materials needed for the rune turret by analyzing the decomposition ability, he did not have these alchemy materials on hand.

Furthermore, the height of the Alchemy Tower was not enough.

One rune turret was more than five meters tall. The 15 rune turrets were just right to be installed on this hundred-meter tall alchemy platform.

If a few more rune turrets were added, it would be counterproductive and affect the operation of the rune turret.

What was worth mentioning was that the rune turret was embedded on the steel rails outside the Alchemy Tower.

The steel ring circled the Alchemy Tower, which could also allow the rune turret to move freely in all directions.

If Mas wanted to install more rune turrets, he had to increase the height of the Alchemy Tower.
