Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Chapter 309 Price

The riot that has been happening and the plague that is spreading everywhere are already out of Vincent's control. He can only trust that his Master Ignacy would do something about it.

He only has to do his part and that is to safely produce the potions and send them to all the Towers, especially those that have many affected people.

In these few weeks, their Fairer Potion has increased its price 3 times already.

At first, it was sold for 8,000 Mana Crystals. It is not a small amount but certainly not expensive for a potion that could cure a special type of disease.

However, as the number of affected increased, they had to involve more people in the production and distribution phase to make it faster.

In addition, the price of the ingredients started increasing as well.

With this in consideration, Vincent decided to double the price to 16,000 Mana Crystals with a heavy heart. In any case, this means that production will also get faster.

There is also another reason why they had to increase the price again.

It is because some batches of potions they have sent to another tower were stolen. It happened twice. Since they didn't earn money from the stolen potions, they have to increase the price to cover their losses.

This is why, right now, the price of a single bottle of potion is 21,000 Mana Crystals.

This is the same price as the Permanent Transformation Potion that was previously sold in the Nexus Auction house.

In any case, Vincent didn't really assist with the prices of the potions. It was handled by Yulia's team instead as they were always thinking for the betterment of their small organization, also known as Stellar Residence.

Although this price could no longer be afforded by the commoners, they have realized that the Fairer Potion can actually be diluted.

A single vial of potion can now be used by more than 5 people as long as they weren't in severe conditions.

If their symptoms are just in the early stage, a diluted version or just a sip of the potion can be used as an alternative. This was discovered by those desperate people and even Vincent didn't know that it was possible.

He thought that potion must be fully consumed for the benefits to take effect.

Nevertheless, he didn't stop people from doing this and even encouraged them as long as it is truly effective.

Thanks to this news, the demand for the potion soared even more.

There were now many 'poor' people that would group up and save money to buy a single potion. They would all get a diluted version to keep for their families in case of emergency.

In addition to that, many alchemists and appraisers testified that the potion's shelf life was something they have never seen before.

Normally, Low-Grade medicine-type potions have about 2 to 3 weeks of shelf life if they weren't placed inside an interspatial ring or any dimensional storage space.

Most Middle-Grade potions have 1 to 2 months of shelf life while High-Grade Potions have 3 to 6 months.

However, after inspecting all the potions being distributed by the Beacon Magic Shop, they discovered that they couldn't tell its expiry date.

It was as if this potion doesn't expire at all!

Many appraisers who specialize in durability and longevity tried inspecting them as well but they all had the same result, they couldn't tell when this potion will expire.

Since this is the first time they experienced it from a man-made potion, they couldn't believe it…

Of course, potions that could last for probably an eternity indeed existed. However, these potions were normally those that could be found within the mysterious dungeons.

The origins of these potions were unknown just like the dungeon itself.

There was no way that the Beacon Magic Shop has found a dungeon with a lake of potions so they can only conclude that their store has a unique method to lengthen the lifespan of their potions.

"I didn't think that this would be a big deal…" Vincent muttered after hearing this news from Yasin.

It was Yasin's group who had gathered this information before the so-called expert appraisers even knocked on their doors.

To be honest, he thought that he would have to worry about the Alchemist Union or other famous Alchemy Stores who wanted the recipe of their potion.

Instead, he was now worried about the incredible potential that their potion had shown to the public.

He didn't feel good about this since they might realize that he was using an Enhancement Method to create this high-grade potion if they investigated further.

"Don't mind them, Vincent. Our potion production is considered a top secret so they can't really investigate how we are producing this. They will just offend your Master…"

"That's right… In any case, if they wanted to investigate, you can just tell them that they are free to reverse engineer the potion."

Severin and Yulia said as Vincent invited them all to eat together in the dining area.

With their busy schedule, the dining area that they have is the only chance they have to talk with each other…

Together with them in the table are Calidia, Yasin, and Krusk…

As for the others, they either ate earlier or planning to eat a bit more later.

"Sir Vincent, can you bring me as well when you're planning to open the capsule?" Calidia suddenly asked after they finished discussing the matters of the Fairer Potion production.

"Hmm? Sure… However, since I'm planning to do it inside a dungeon, perhaps you can wait outside. Once we confirmed that it's safe, I'll allow you to enter…"

Vincent replied.

However, she didn't seem satisfied about this as she immediately explained.

"Is it really not possible? To be honest, I'm feeling something from the capsule itself. Before I even learned that a Celestial Being is possibly inside it, I already felt some connection with it…"

"A connection?" Vincent asked.

"Yes… As you know, we are the survivors of the Celestial Incarnation Project… We are the 15th Tower's almost perfected product. Part of our bodies was from the Celestial Beings. Even our blood has already mutated to accommodate the surgeries… I think that whatever is inside that thing isn't harmful to me… or us…" Calidia explained. She wasn't a talkative person and would normally just follow instructions.

However, she really tried expressing herself today so Vincent couldn't help but smile.

"Alright… In any case, we will have Tara and Rem with us…" Vincent finally agreed as he also felt that it was about time to open the capsule.

After two more days of waiting, they have finally settled all the important matters and they now have the time to do something else.

They transported the Sleeping Chamber inside Professor Levent's Green Lake Dungeon as Vincent decided to wake up the being inside the chamber.
