273 – The Grand Pharmacist Canales

Yang Feng’s eyes glimmered with admiration: “The Great Prince André is indeed extraordinary!”

Although the 4 princes were very outstanding, but compared with the Great Prince André, the gap was as wide as the gap between chicken and a phoenix.

However, the more brilliant André was, the more Yang Feng didn’t want him to take the throne. Otherwise, once the former had the authority to control the entire Morrince Empire, Yang Feng would find it very difficult to do what he wanted to.

André came over.

“Brother!” When they saw André approach, the 4 princes greeted him. Their greeting contained traces of both courtesy and fear.

“You are Ian?” André ignored Porta’s group of 4, as he walked up to Yang Feng. He had an air of dominance about him. He asked

Yang Feng replied: “I am Ian, Your Highness André!”

A touch of regret flashed through André’s eyes and he said: “What a pity.”

Canales took a step forward, his indifferent eyes released a brilliant glow, and he said bluntly as if it was a matter of course: “I am Canales. Ian, give me all the potion formulas you have, and I won’t make things difficult for you today.”

Yang Feng looked at Canales as if he was looking at an idiot and replied indifferently: “Why should I give you my potion formulas and not the other way around?”

Canales was a little stunned, then his eyes surged with anger, and he said with a grim smile: “Fool!! I just wanted your potion formulas. Now, due to your stupidity, I’m going to make you my slave. I’m challenging you to a potion duel! The loser shall be the slave of the winner and give everything of theirs to the winner!!”

Yang Feng asked in reply: “Why should I agree to your challenge?”

Canales sneered, saying: “It’s a fair challenge between Pharmacists, and you can’t refuse it. However, if you do refuse, I will have the Weave Church expel you. You won’t be able to enter any of the temples of the Weave Goddess to pray.”

For a devout fanatic, not being able to enter the temple of their god to pray was the most severe punishment.

Canales made his name as a Grand Pharmacist decades ago, and his connections and influence were far beyond Yang Feng’s.

Yang Feng said with a grave expression: “You’re really vicious!”

Canales laughed wildly and said: “Ha-ha. It’s no use! Hand over the potion formulas or become my slave after a potion duel; you only have two choices.”

Yang Feng said very calmly: “It seems that I have no choice.”

Canales arrogantly threw a golden contract scroll to in front of Yang Feng: “This is the highest level contract scroll of the temple of the God of Contracts, sign it!”

Garça’s face changed greatly, then he grabbed Yang Feng’s right hand and shouted: “Ian, don’t sign it! I can use my influence and make sure that you won’t be expelled from the Weave Church.”

Canales sneered arrogantly: “Due to an accident, the Pope of the Weave Church was gravely injured when he was young. I saved him with my potions, so now he owes me a favor. Can your influence compare to that of the Pope of the Weave Church?”

Garça’s complexion suddenly changed greatly, and he turned silent.

The headquarters of the Weave Church were not in the Morrince Empire. Although Garça, as the 6th prince, had indeed some influence in the Weave Church, yet he could not compare to the Pope of the Weave Church, at all.

Although Canales was very arrogant, but he had the capital to do so. It had been decades since he became a Grand Pharmacist, so god knows how many powerhouses he befriended. In certain domains, his word carried much more weight than that of many princes of the Morrince Empire.

Yang Feng was silent for a moment, then carefully examined the golden magic contract for a while. After he confirmed that there were no mistakes, Yang Feng freed himself from Garça’s hand, and signed the contract.

After he signed it, the golden magic contract immediately ignited and turned into 2 golden lights, which landed in the space between the eyebrows of Yang Feng and Canales respectively.

Canales scanned the platform of the potion auction with a glance and smiled, saying: “This platform of the auction is pretty good, it’s just right for our duel.”

Yang Feng replied: “Good!”

The both of them soon arrived atop the platform.

Canales said lightly: “The rules of this potion duel are as follows – we each have to drink a potion of the other party, and then dispel the magic of the potion. The one to admit defeat loses.”

Yang Feng nodded slightly, and agreed with Canales.

A duel between Pharmacists was not fought with spells, but by drinking each other’s potions and dispelling the magic therein. Duels between Pharmacists was often decided with a potion.

Yang Feng said with a sincere expression: “Grandmaster Canales, you’ve made your name as a Grand Pharmacist a long time ago, so as a form of respect, I’ll prepare a potion for you to drink first.”

Canales smiled faintly and replied: “Respect the old and cherish the young, do you understand this principle? If you want to show me respect, then you should drink the potion I prepare first!”

In a duel between Pharmacists, the party to drink a potion first would be in a complete disadvantage. Unless the gap in power between the parties was big, the party to drink a potion first would absolutely be in a disadvantage.

Yang Feng smiled and said: “No. If I drank first, wouldn’t it be akin to claiming that I’m more powerful than you, grandmaster? You should drink first, as you are more powerful than myself, grandmaster. When you drink my potion, you are sure to dispel it with ease.”

Canales didn’t yield an inch, saying: “I am indeed stronger than you. However, you should be the one to drink my potion first.”

André came over, extended a fist towards Yang Feng, and said: “I have either 1 gold coin or 2 gold coins in my hand. If you guess correctly, then Grandmaster Canales will be the one to drink first. Otherwise, you will be the one.”

Yang Feng contemplated for a while before saying: “2 gold coins!”

André opened his hand slowly, and, so that everyone could see, revealed 1 gold coin.

André said faintly: “You go first.”

Yang Feng replied: “Okay!”

Canales silently chanted an incantation and waved his hand. Magic light flashed and a huge table, which was covered in all kinds of exotic magic ingredients, strangely appeared on the floor.

Canales’ eyes flashed with fanaticism, and he said with a smile of excitement: “There are 3,000 kinds of ingredients here. I know that you’re not ready, so we’ll be using these 3,000 kinds of magic ingredients to refine our potions and have a good match. Of course, if you have your own ingredients to add, that’s also not a problem.”

Canales was a fanatical Pharmacist who studied pharmacy all his life, and his magic strength was merely at the Archwizard rank. With the help of various precious potions he barely managed to promote to an Archwizard. However, when it came to pharmacy, he was in the top 3 of the Morrince Empire’s Grand Pharmacists.

After he finished speaking, Canales no longer paid attention to Yang Feng. He focused his attention on the ingredients, and carefully selected a total of 23 magic ingredients.

In the venue, everyone’s eyes were deeply attracted by Canales.

A Grand Pharmacist refining a potion on the spot was a rare sight, which many of the bigwigs present had never witnessed.

On the Feisuo Plane, pharmacy was one of the most mysterious subjects, and very few people could master it.

Yang Feng took a closer look at the 23 magic ingredients, and his eyes flashed with graveness.

Among the 23 ingredients, Yang Feng could only identify 19 of them. The other 4 were extraordinary plants that had yet to be recorded in his database.

After he chose the 23 ingredients, Canales carefully placed a humanoid magic ingredient into a glass beaker, then silently chanted an incantation, pointed with his finger, and cast the level-1 spell Healing Water.

Suddenly, blue healing water appeared, and interwove around the humanoid ingredient. The humanoid ingredient stood upright and issued a piercing shriek.

When the people present heard the shriek of the humanoid ingredient, many ordinary people suddenly felt a pressure in their chest and a fishy taste in their throat, as blood rose from their throat and flowed from the corners of their mouth.

Just as many people began to panic, a Wizard standing behind André silently chanted an incantation, pointed at the platform, and cast a soundproofing spell, completely cutting off the yelling from the humanoid magic ingredient on the platform.

“What a scary magic ingredient!!”

“This ingredient is really scary! Only Wizards can handle such an ingredient!!”

“…”

The eyes of bigwigs flashed with palpitations, as they took out their towels and wiped the blood from the corners of their mouth.

Canales didn’t pay attention to those people. After the humanoid magic ingredient was covered by the healing water, he pointed with his finger and a flame instantly enveloped the humanoid ingredient and the healing water.

Under the burning of the flame, the humanoid magic ingredient and the healing water strangely ignited. After the flame finished burning, only a black, greasy liquid remained floating in the beaker. That black, greasy liquid constantly rolled, and occasionally formed fear-inducing faces.

After the humanoid ingredient was dealt with, Canales displayed various techniques, which looked fantastic in the eyes of ordinary people, and began to process the other magic ingredients.

Before long, there were 23 beakers with strange liquids.
