A few days passed, and the Potion Alchemy City was still functioning as normal.
But those with high enough authority were not calm at all because just five days ago they all received personal letters from none other than the City Lord himself to help me buy as much titian iron of unique rank as possible using their own private channels and the price will be paid after they delivered it.
No one doubts the credibility of Karim's words, and no one would dare to use his name like this. So, they all quickly search for and buy Titan Iron using their contacts. These people were mostly merchants who directly dealt with the Alchemy Guild.
Some of them were even members of the Alchemy guild and unearth or rear materials of the Alchemy Guild. There were many rich mines and huge herb guards within the Alchemy region, and it wasn't a problem for a Great Elder Alchemist to buy as much as they wanted.
Those people quickly sent huge quantities of Unique Rank Titan Iron within seven more days. Since titan iron can only be used within forging and there were many other more valuable materials, it wasn't overly precious or hard to get as long as you knew where to look for it.
But with words from a Great Elder Alchemist, almost all the titan iron was bought, causing its price to rise sharply. Some spies of other factions even begin to notice this, and they all suspect that something is amiss, and the alchemy guild is up to something.
After all, only 12 Great Elder Alchemists were present in the Unique Plains and others in the Alchemy Guild Territory, a number unknown. Karim was one of the formers, and because of his race, he was even more well-known, and his position was quite high.
That's why, even at a higher cost, people bought it and quickly offered it to Karim to curry favor with him.
In ten days, over 100 tons of unique rank (Including the Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced levels) titan iron was in Karim's hands.
Then, on the fifteenth night after this titan iron mayhem occurred, a piece of huge news spread: Karim suddenly vanished from the Alchemy Guild. This news wouldn't have drawn too much attention before, but Karim had drawn huge attention to himself these past few days, so many were still looking for Titan Iron to please him.
But he then just vanished, and not only that, but he vanished with the entire treasury of the Potion Alchemy City, the guild included, leaving nothing behind. Moreover, he vanished with the massive debt that he accumulated from taking the titan iron.
Since everyone knows about his reputation, they didn't directly demand the payment and were willing to overlook it as long as Karim agreed to refine a potion or two.
But now that he vanished while cleaning everything, even an idiot could tell that Karim had played everyone like a bitch. He intended to steal everyone in one go and then vanish with the enormous wealth.
After all, just the titan iron he had accumulated these past few days probably cost over a trillion ZC. Unique Rank materials were never cheap, and if you include the wealth of the Alchemy Guild and the city, just the entry fee of 1 Low Unique Magic Gem or equivalent value magic gems was enough to turn anyone's eyes green with greed.
The guild would take inventory every five years, and before that, all the wealth would remain safe in the treasury of the guild. But there was still a little over one year left before the Potion Alchemy City emptied its treasury.
Yet now, all that over three years of wealth was plundered by the alchemy guild's honorary member, and not just any random member, but an extremely high-level one. No one had expected it, and this became a huge scandal, putting the Alchemy Guild in the spotlight and also turning them into the laughingstock of the whole Unique Plains!
How could an organization like Alchemy Guild swallow such a humiliation?
Not only was this a breach of trust with the organization but also with the loyal customers, and it also would affect the guild's integrity because no one would be willing to leave behind their materials if people began to suspect the moral conduct of the alchemists.
So, this matter can't be handled too lightly or too slowly.
Within six hours, the Alchemy Guild finally responded with a star post, posted by none other than the Guild President Bronte, also the second leader of the Life Faction and known as the Queen of Witches!
In her posts, she condemned Karim and publicly apologized to everyone for this disgraceful incident. Not only that, but she also promised to compensate all those who give Titan iron to Karim on credit with three times their purchasing price and a limited-time 5% discount on all alchemy products and services.
Afterward, she promised to capture Karim and publicly put him on trial for his crime against the public trust. She even put a huge bounty of 10 Billion ZC, an Advanced Unique Rank Treasure of one choice, and an Advanced Unique Tier Breaker Pill.
This pill caused a huge commotion because it wasn't some random pill; it wasn't even available in the market of Unique Plains, and people only heard rumors about it.
This pill can help anyone below tier-9 unique rank achieve an instant breakthrough by a whole tire! If a tier-8 unique rank consumes this pill, they can instantly become tier-9 unique, and one can only consume two pills in their lifetime.
That's why this caused a sensation, and by the next day, everyone was praising the Alchemy Guild and President Bronte for their righteousness and fairness. At the same time, Karim became public enemy number one, a greedy fiend, traitor of life, etc.…
Most importantly, every signal personnel was looking for Karim's whereabouts like a mad freaking dog. Everyone wanted the Tier Breaker Pill either by hook or crook.
The neutral region was a few tens of millions of miles away from the Alchemy Region, and the Dark City was also located in this place.
At this moment, Jacob's figure appeared within the teleportation hall of the Dark City!
