Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 1004  Core World Pill And Declaration Of War (Part 1)

"So, did you get the thing you were looking for in the Tomb of the Ancients to heal Grandpa Sylvan?" Evan asked after praying for the future of the old man.

Cedar nodded his head when he heard Evan and took out a small bonsai-sized, white-coloured plant from his storage ring. The plant was glowing with a hazy blue light, and a cherry-sized, red-coloured fruit was growing on it.

"A world core plant..." Anastasia raised an eyebrow when she saw the plant in Cedar's hand and spoke with a surprised look on her face.

"World core plant?" Evan looked at the plant in confusion because he felt it looked somewhat similar to the World Tree he had seen in Sylvan's cave.

Seeing the confused look on Evan's face, Anastasia explained to him.

"The World Core Plant is a Rank Four treasure, but considering the conditions for its formation, it's even rarer than many Rank Five and some Rank Six treasures," Anastasia said and continued, "The World Core Plant only grows in places where a Rank Five or Rank Six Core Evolver died... And the chances of its formation are less than three percent."

"Grows only in places where a Rank Five or Rank Six Core Evolver died..." Evan was shocked when he heard Anastasia, but he soon remembered how Azroth killed many Rank Five and Rank Six Core Evolvers to create the Tomb Of The Ancient, so it wasn't surprising that Cedar found a World Core Plant in the Tomb. But the question was...

"How did you find it? I'm sure this plant must have been in a hidden place; otherwise, people would have found it long ago," Evan asked Cedar with a curious look on his face.

Cedar smiled when he heard Evan and took out a branch from his storage ring. The branch was just fifty centimetres long and was glowing with different colours of light.

"The branch of the World Tree, huh. It's no surprise that you were able to find it since the branch of the World Tree can sense the World Core Plant," Anastasia spoke with a look of understanding when she saw the glowing branch in Cedar's hand.

Evan didn't know the relationship between the branch of the World Tree and the World Core Plant, and honestly, he didn't care too much, so he didn't ask further about it and got back to the main question.

"So, this World Core Plant can heal Grandpa Sylvan's core, right? Does he just need to eat the fruit growing on it, or is there something more?"

Cedar scratched the back of his head when he heard Evan and shook his head.

"Honestly, I don't know anything about that. He just told me to look for this plant. As for how to use it, we will have to ask him."

Evan looked at Anastasia when he heard Cedar, asking if she knew anything about how this plant could heal an injured core. Seeing Evan looking at her, Anastasia explained in a calm voice.

"Normally, if the injuries to his core were not serious, he would have been able to heal them just by eating the fruit growing on the World Core Plant. But the injuries he sustained are not normal, and because it's been thousands of years since he received those injuries, it would be impossible for him to heal them just by eating the fruit," Anastasia paused after saying this and continued after a moment. "However, if he uses the essence of the entire World Core Plant along with its fruit and some other rare herbs to create a Core World Pill, it wouldn't be difficult for him to heal his damaged core."

Evan and the others listened carefully to Anastasia and a deep frown appeared on Cedar's face.

"Ummm... What is the rank of this Core World Pill?" He asked while trying to stay calm.

"It's a Rank Five pill... And one of the hardest pills to make among the Rank Five ones."

Cedar's face turned gloomy when he heard Anastasia because even the best alchemist in the closed world of Drayds was just a Rank Three one.

Seeing Cedar's gloomy look, Evan patted him on the shoulder and walked outside of his house.

"Don't make that gloomy face. Since that old man asked you to bring the plant, he must have some kind of arrangement to make the Core World Pill."

Hearing Evan, Cedar thought for a moment and nodded his head. He put away the World Core Plant and the branch of the World Tree back into his storage ring and looked at Evan who was walking away.

"Let's go and meet him. I am sure that guy must be wondering if you were able to find the World Core Plant or not in the Tomb," Evan said to Cedar and the others, and at the same time, he used his spiritual senses to talk to Octavius.

'Can you make this so-called World Core Pill?'

'It's not easy to make this pill,' Evan heard Octavius' thoughtful reply, 'but I should be able to make it if you can provide me with enough energy.'

Evan's mouth twitched when he heard Octavius talking about energy, and he asked in a dead voice.

'How much?'

Octavius was silent for a while as if he was calculating. After a full minute of silence, Evan finally heard his voice.

'Not much, I think one and a half billion high-level essence stones would be enough.'

When Evan heard Octavius, he stopped walking for a second but soon continued to walk as if nothing had happened.

He didn't reply to Octavius and directly cut his connection with him, not wanting to talk to him anymore.

'This guy is even more dangerous than the loan sharks...' He thought to himself, but soon, he remembered he wasn't the one who needed to create the pill. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

'I just hope that old man already has a solution to create the Core World Pill; otherwise, he might die of a heart attack after hearing about the amount of essence stones Octavius needs to create the pill.'
