Saine agreed to forge a World-Class Secret Treasure for the Ghost Crow King, and it was not merely because of their excellent relationship.
The Ghost Crow King specialized in the laws of death and souls, so the premium materials it had accumulated over the years for forging a World-Class Secret Treasure were naturally treasures related to those two aspects.
As it happened, two of Saine's wives, Lina and Mei Kaili, were also leading figures in the field of death-element magic.
Ever since acquiring the Staff of Ashes, Saine had not intended to profit by forging Magic Conductors for others.
But if it was magical equipment for those close to him, he was still willing to spend the time and effort.
According to the unwritten rules of the Wizard Alliance, customers had to prepare nearly three times the raw materials in advance before alchemists would begin their work.
This was because it involved the issue of "material loss rate."
Using three times the materials to forge a World-Class Secret Treasure was not an excessive condition.
If one encountered alchemists of insufficient skill, or those lacking experience in forging World-Class Secret Treasures,
then even after investing triple the materials, it was entirely possible to end up with nothing!
Thus, when those foreign gods of the Wizard Alliance wanted someone to forge a World-Class Secret Treasure, most would first consider reserving the God of Fire and Craftsmen of the Titan God Race. Their second choice was to find a way to connect with the Alchemy Grandmasters of Wizard Civilization.
The reason Wizard Civilization's Alchemy Grandmasters were only the second choice was not because their World-Class Secret Treasure forging techniques were inferior to those of the Titan God Race. Rather, Wizard World powerhouses generally rarely forged treasures for the alliance's foreign gods.
