As if it was a beauty of the same species, the Fire Axolotl immediately went over towards the Mini Habitat to check.
And before long, seeing no immediate danger, it directly dived down inside the habitat, or more precisely, to the lava lake that was on the other side of the volcano.
The Fire Axolotl was not that big either, even though the Mini Habitat was small, it could still freely swim in the lava lake and still have time to do some tricks.
The Fire Axolotl immediately integrated with the mini habitat, and before long, they could instantly tell that it loved the mini habitat so much.
Of course, as the master, Rendal felt it first. The Fire Axolotl's emotions that have been building up for some days now. The frustration and pressure it was feeling from the recent days, Rendal could tell that his Fire Axolotl was releasing it all. He could tell that his FIre Axolotl was enjoying the mini habitat very much.
After seeing that, Rendal finally heaves a sigh of relief. It seems that the problem he was facing was now resolved.
And with that, he immediately expressed his gratitude towards Master Leon who helped him. At the same time, the standing of the Monster Doctors suddenly rose to the top in Rendal's heart. On this day onward, he will treat every Monster Doctor he encounters with great respect to the point of making even the Monster Doctors themselves feel embarrass.
Joana now also looked at Leon with a more complicated gaze. She wanted to say something but in the end, the words seemed to be stucked on her throat.
As Rendal could already tell that his Fire Axolotl would be fine now, he no longer waited and immediately handed the remaining fee. He also added 5000 Gold Coins more as an extra for the blueprint of the Mini Habitat.
Ban did not want to accept it at first as it was part of the 'treatment' but Rendal insisted that he should at least pay some of its value. As not only will he still be able to copy the blueprint in the future he could also even study it and master new forging techniques from it.
In the end, Ban could only accept it 'reluctantly' and in total, within a couple of hours, he earned a total amount of 15,000 Gold Coins. However, Ban was only elated for a second before he calmed down. After all, the lowest grade E-Elite Rank Beast Cores was already priced at 10,000 Gold Coins, and thinking about it, 15,000 Gold Coins will be gone in an instant if he tried buying one.
After their transaction was over, Ban and Joana no longer wasted their time on the blacksmith shop.
Ban expressed his gratitude to Joana for leading him to Rendal and she only nodded in reply. She was as quiet as ever, contrary to her attitude towards him from before.
'Was it because I rejected her?' Ban thought.
Anyways, they rented a carriage and arrived at Joana's store a while later. Ban said that he will go to the Blackmarket and he asked if Joana wanted to tag along. Joana refused saying that she still had something to do and that her Hairless Cat was now on its final phase of the evolution process.
However, Ban could tell that she was only telling half of the truth.
In the end, Ban only nodded his head and no longer thought about it. He went and walked towards the Blackmarket alone.
While passing by the 'silent' crowd, Ban immediately noticed something different from before. Although they were silent, he could see fears hidden in their actions, as if they were trying to avoid something.
Some time later, he arrived at the brothel of Mr. Nian again.
After stating the password, he was then escorted towards Mr. Nian who was now staring at the chessboard in deep contemplation.
Seeing that, Ban could not help but smile.
It seems that he will be able to avoid paying for the information again.
After the servant notified Mr. Nian about his arrival, Mr. Nian was instantly startled and immediately kept the chessboard before hiding it under the table.
As if nothing has happened, Mr. Nian then stood up and welcomed him warmly.
Ban was taken aback by his actions but in the end, he did not pursue it. He only asked Mr. Nian if the method from before was still available.
Mr. Nian coughed dryly before stating that it was only available for first-time customers and the second time they came back, the option of playing chess with him will no longer be available.
In the end, Ban only nodded his head stating that he understands. He then asked Mr. Nian about the locations of Lord Grade Beasts in the Death Swamp and other Beasts that's suspected to have a Beast Core inside them.
Mr. Nian obviously knew what he was thinking about and what he was trying to accomplish. As he was feeling good recently, Mr. Nian could not help but warm him about it.
"I certainly have the information regarding those kinds of Beasts on the Death Swamp. However, I must warn you in advance that the remaining Lord Grade Beasts on the Death Swamp were now only the strongest of the bunch as the weakest of them had already been killed a long time ago for their Beast Cores."
"The remaining ones are the ones who are difficult to deal with and have already a certain level of strength that could rival even those on a higher rank than them."
Mr. Nian also told him that the information he got was also a little outdated as no one had particularly paid attention to the strong Lord Grade Beasts in recent years anymore.
Every Lord Grade Beasts required a large number of people on the same rank to defeat it. Sometimes, they will even need to borrow the help of someone who has a higher rank than the Beast just to slay it.
Not to mention the casualties, the reward itself was really not generous. It was no longer profitable.
Nowadays, no one no longer hunts for Lord Grade Beasts for their guaranteed Beast Cores.. Aside from those who wanted to advance to the next rank and those who wanted to use their parts as materials for evolution, the Adventurers really no longer paid attention to them.
