For this life-saving elixir from Tatis Empire, the Alchemy Cathedral and its many affiliated alchemist factions have always adhered to the attitude of accepting as much as they get.
Each life elixir that enters Union City through the grey channel can sell for 5,000 to 10,000 union coins.
Furthermore, the more they sell, the higher the unit price becomes.
If Noland Lee had a way to deal with the supply source while guaranteeing his own safety…
Heh heh heh…
He could definitely make a fortune in this major turmoil while saving many lives.
So the question is, where to get a large amount of life elixir?
The answer might be hidden in the deconstruction results of the “birthed double-winged aberrations.”

[Features]
Birthed Creature:
These emaciated double-winged aberrations, stimulated and born from the outside world, have only half the actual combat strength of their normal counterparts.
The “vitality” attribute value of the birthed double-winged aberrations is much higher than that of normal double-winged aberrations.
Noland Lee seriously suspects that the materials Samuelson and Military Intelligence Department Five use to create the double-winged aberrations may be the life elixir.
From his experience in the Suffering Borderland, only the life elixir associated with the “Vitality Surge” could give these birthed double-winged aberrations a “vitality” attribute higher than their normal counterparts.
So, in summary:
A large amount of life elixir must exist near the Nest Core in the Savage Stone Wasteland.
Going one step further:
There must be a supply route for transporting the life elixir between the Savage Stone Wasteland and the Blade Mountain Range.
Noland Lee found a map of the Savage Stone Wasteland. Referring to the memory of following Military Intelligence Department Five in his mind, he drew a path along their direction of travel.
The northern node of this path connects with the newly formed aberration fissure.
And the southern node is connected to the water outlet of Bunker No.16 inside the Blade Mountain Range.
If Noland Lee’s speculation is correct, the path he drew is the supply route used by Military Intelligence Department Five to transport the life elixir.
To draw this line, one must have the layout map of the bunkers and tunnels built by the imperial army inside the Blade Mountain Range.
Noland Lee got this top-secret information while escaping from the Suffering Borderland.
Once the speculation about the supply route is confirmed, Noland Lee can start preparing for the subsequent plans.
The Military Intelligence Department Five team transporting the life elixir may contain the “Imperial Fist” and may also have double-winged aberrations flying along.
Can Noland Lee, along with a nanny, snatch the life elixir from the hands of the double-winged aberrations and the “Imperial Fist”?
It’s difficult, risky but barely possible.
To ensure the success of the plan, Noland Lee needs help, and it must be absolutely trustworthy help.
On the third day of returning to Union City, Philia paid a visit and invited Noland Lee to the manor to discuss the rewards.
At the suggestion of Denise Green, Noland Lee prepared a list of rewards.
He followed the list’s order and picked a magic robe, three sets of magic materials, two summoning magic broom scrolls, and a 300,000 union coin card from Cat Society Manor.
Before leaving, Noland Lee asked Philia about her recent plans.
After learning that Philia and the Wizard Students of Elemental Judgment were not planning to leave Union City, Noland Lee left the manor without mentioning anything related to acquiring the life elixir.
Noland Lee was not surprised by Meow Judgment’s operation this time.
Denise Green told him that the First Level Magic Research Institute established by Elemental Judgment locally cannot participate in anything related to closing the aberration fissure.
This was explicitly mentioned in the contract signed between Elemental Judgment and the Alchemy Cathedral.
Since Elemental Judgment cannot be a cooperating party, Noland Lee has only one choice left:
The Golden Commerce Guild.
Noland Lee, draped in the sunset glow, strolled down the bustling streets, stopping in front of “Money and Good Dreams.”
He pushed the door open and saw the enchanting woman waiting in the grand hall.
“How rare.” Cindy hugged her arms and laughed:
“When you entrusted someone to bring me a message, I thought I had misheard. I really didn’t expect that you, who is busy all day, would come to my place for a stroll… Follow me, let’s talk in the office.”
“Has Kent sent back any news from the Savage Stone Wasteland?” Noland Lee asked as he followed her.
“Not for now. But that’s a good thing. Generally speaking, if news comes back, it’s usually bad news.”
Cindy led Noland Lee into her office, brought him a cup of hot tea, and sat down across from him.
Her dress with a slit accentuated her figure nicely. The curves of her crossed legs while sitting were enough to feast the eyes of anyone sitting opposite.
Noland Lee calmly picked up the tea cup:
“I came here to cooperate with you this time.”
Cindy lit a cigarette with practiced ease and said:
“Hmm, I know. I’m well aware that you didn’t come here to pursue a momentary pleasure. Once you show up, there must be a serious matter. So just go ahead and talk.”
Noland Lee threw a bombshell directly:
“I received a message. The aberration fissure that appeared in the Savage Stone Wasteland was artificially created by Tatis Military Intelligence Department Five and a wizard criminal. Yes, you heard me right. It’s an artificially created aberration fissure.”
