The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2524

"No one exactly knows how big or powerful that Giant Tortoise is. Anyway, everyone who encountered it died, not even their Primordial Spirit escaped."

Carson Flores listened to the legend of this Giant Tortoise and became even more curious: "If everyone died, how do they know it’s a Giant Tortoise?"

The middle-aged man said, "A long time ago, this Giant Tortoise appeared. It showed up in the deepest parts of the Suffering Pray Sea, with a massive body. Some people wanted to hunt it, but they never returned. Later on, more powerful people who couldn’t let it go tried to kill it too, but those who went either didn’t find the Giant Tortoise and returned empty-handed, or vanished from the world."

"After many people died, no one dared to seek death again. Over time, the existence of the Giant Tortoise turned into a legend. Except for those who don’t believe in evil and venture out to seek it, everyone else chooses to stay away from that sea area."

Carson Flores nodded and smiled: "It seems staying away from that area is necessary."

The middle-aged man advised: "Here in the land of exile, the primary premise for everything is to survive. Only by staying alive can you think about other things."

Carson Flores nodded: "How can we get in touch?"

The middle-aged man thought for a moment: "It’ll take me some time to gather information. Once I have some, I’ll wait for you in front of the restaurant. By the way, my name is Ildan Rollins, but you can just call me Rollins."

"Alright!"

The two chatted for a while, and time quickly passed. Without waiting for the Formation to eject them from the restaurant, he and Ildan Rollins walked out on their own.

Ildan Rollins left directly, and Carson Flores pondered for a moment and changed his mind.

Although he could hide inside the Ethereal Pagoda or the Palace of Seven Beauties to completely avoid the Spiritual Energy tide, he would also miss many opportunities to find potential information.

With the last two minutes, Carson Flores asked the guard at the door: "I heard there’s a high demand for elixirs on this island. I’m an Alchemist. Is there anywhere I can be accommodated?"

The guard casually replied: "There’s a Valentine Family Pharmacy up ahead recruiting Alchemists. You can check it out, but if you’re just entry-level, a mediocre one, then don’t go humiliate yourself."

"Thank you!"

Carson Flores politely thanked and left the restaurant door, diving into the Spiritual Energy tide that was like a dense curtain of rain.

The pain instantly spread all over his body again, and a golden Barrier appeared on Carson Flores, temporarily blocking the Spiritual Energy tide.

Carson Flores walked forward along the damp street and soon discovered the Valentine Family Pharmacy.

The same bright lights, the same multitude of shadows, bustling and lively.

Carson Flores walked to the entrance and bowed to the Guard standing within the Barrier: "I heard the pharmacy is hiring, I’m an Alchemist, I’d like to give it a try."

The Guard sized Carson Flores up and down: "What level of Alchemist are you?"

Carson Flores responded: "I can basically refine Mid-Order elixirs and some High-Order elixirs as well."

Carson Flores didn’t fully expose his alchemist prowess, as revealing too much might lead to unnecessary trouble.

"Wait."

The Guard quickly came out, followed by an elderly man in a black robe, with a shrewd appearance, looking like a shopkeeper.

"You wish to apply as an Alchemist at our Valentine Family Pharmacy?"

Carson Flores nodded: "Yes, as long as you’re willing to take me in, I’m willing to refine elixirs for you."

The elderly man casually asked: "Can you refine Sunrise Pill?"

Mid-Order elixir, generally not too difficult.

"Yes."

"Grand Harmony Powder?"

Mid-Order elixir, relatively difficult.

"Yes!"

The elderly man’s eyes shone with delight and continued to ask: "Turtle Scale Pill?"

This one is a High-Order elixir but with an average difficulty among High-Order elixirs.

"Yes!"

The elderly man’s face showed more obvious joy, and his eyes were filled with expectation: "White Rainbow Pill?"

Carson Flores looked at the elderly man’s expression and knew that his displayed level had already impressed the other party. He then pretended to be troubled and said: "I can’t do this one, after all, the elixir formula for High-Order elixirs is hard to collect, and the cost of refining is too high..."

"Come in!"

The elderly man didn’t waste words, letting Carson Flores enter the pharmacy’s Barrier, and the pressure on him vanished instantly.

"Follow me, if you can refine all I just asked, then you can stay. But if you’re bluffing, hehe..."

The elderly man didn’t specify what would be done, but the threat in his words was clear.

"Okay!"

Following the elderly man into the store, they were led directly to the back of the shop, into a spacious room with a Pill Furnace in the middle.

The elderly man waved his hand, and a pile of herbs flew out of the Space Ring, landing on the operation table nearby.

"Show me your refining."

Carson Flores didn’t hesitate, calmly agreed, and began his smooth operation.

The elderly man stood silently with folded hands, observing Carson Flores’ every move with sharp eyes like a hawk.

For Carson Flores, refining these Mid-Order elixirs was as easy as reaching into his pocket.

When the elixirs dropped into the silver tray, exuding a tempting fragrance, the elderly man’s eyes showed unconcealed delight.

Good fellow!

The pill yield is so high, and the quality is so good; this young man is quite the expert!
