Mittel Family, Exotic Metal Windfall

However, Queen Medusa is a rather aloof and mature woman, and she is quite cold to everyone except Wang Chen.

She simply stepped out of the carriage and nodded slightly to Ice Emperor Hai Bodong as a greeting.

Then she stood behind Wang Chen without saying a word.

"Please come in quickly!"

At this moment, Mittel Tengshan of the Mittel Family also stepped forward and greeted them.

Mittel Tengshan was naturally very enthusiastic towards a master who was warmly welcomed even by the Supreme Elder.

When the Supreme Elder returned, he arranged for the Mittel Family to collect Exotic Metal, although he did not specify who they were for.

However, as someone who had opened Mittel Auction House throughout the major cities of the Jia Ma Empire, Mittel Tengshan was no fool.

He roughly guessed that Wang Chen was the one who needed the Exotic Metal.

He is also an Advanced Alchemist.

After all, when Ice Emperor Hai Bodong returned, he personally said that as long as enough Exotic Metal were collected, there would be plenty of high-grade pills.

That's why Mittel Tenzan is so enthusiastic.

It must be said that Ice Emperor Hai Bodong was indeed not a responsible Supreme Elder.

After returning to the Mittel Family, he simply assigned the task of collecting Exotic Metal, and then went into seclusion to cultivate and refine the Imperial Extreme Pill given to him by Wang Chen.

There wasn't much detail given to Wang Chen's introduction.

Of course, it's also possible that they weren't quite clear about Wang Chen's thoughts, which is why they didn't make a big fuss about it.

However, regardless of the circumstances, the higher-ups in the Mittel Family only knew that there was an Advanced Alchemist who needed Exotic Metal.

As for who that Advanced Alchemist is?

When will the Mittel Family come?

That means they knew absolutely nothing.

Greeted by Ice Emperor Hai Bodong and Mittel Tengshan, Wang Chen Queen Medusa also entered the Mittel Family.

The Heavenly Demon Puppet was driving the carriage was also directly put into Wang Chen's Storage Ring.

As for the carriage and the Second-Order Magical Beast pulling it, the Mittel Family took care of them.

This Second-Order Magical Beast had taken quite a distance, so Wang Chen didn't intend to kill it directly to find the Magic Core.

Even if it didn't do anything special, it still put in a lot of effort. Wang Chen isn't the kind of person who would discard someone after they've served their purpose.

Upon entering the Mittel Family's Reception Hall, Ice Emperor Hai Bodong gave Wang Chen a very grand welcome.

Apart from Wang Chen Queen Medusa, there were no other guests in the entire Reception Hall.

The Mittel Family consists of only two members: Ice Emperor Hai Bodong and Mittel Tengshan.

The fact that both the family patriarch and the Supreme Elder were invited to the event demonstrates the importance attached to it.

"Brother Wang, let me introduce myself."

This is the current head of the Mittel Family, Mittel Tenzan.

The Exotic Metal you need is the one he's helping to collect.

Ice Emperor Hai Bodong quickly began to introduce himself to Wang Chen.

Ice Emperor Hai Bodong still values his underling, Mittel Tengshan, quite a bit.

That's why she specifically introduced it to Wang Chen at this time.

The hope is that, within their means, Wang Chen can offer some assistance.

After all, for an Advanced Alchemist, there are quite a few ways to increase the strength of a Dou Wang.

Wang Chen, an Advanced Alchemist, could easily leak even a tiny bit of his knowledge to Mittel Tengshan, from between his fingers, and Mittel Tengshan would benefit immensely.

"This is troublesome."

Wang Chen still had some impression of Mittel Tengshan, a character who appeared in the original work.

His granddaughter, Mittel Ya Fei, in particular, had a significant role in the early part of the original story.

Since the other party had collected the Exotic Metal for him, Wang Chen naturally had to express his gratitude.

Saying a few nice words won't cost you anything.

Wang Chen possessed this level of social awareness.

"No trouble at all."

It is my honor to be able to help my seniors.

Although Wang Chen looks very young, he is able to be on equal footing with Ice Emperor Hai Bodong.

Mittel Tengshan also addressed Wang Chen as "senior" in a very polite manner.

After all, he already knew that Wang Chen was an Advanced Alchemist.

It's shameful to try to curry favor with an Advanced Alchemist just to increase your strength.

Even Wang Chen knows to say a few nice words, let alone Mittel Tengshan, who has opened auction houses all over the Jia Ma Empire.

Her grasp of interpersonal relationships and social dynamics is something that a young person like Wang Chen can't compare to.

"This is Wang Chen, a good brother I made in the Tagor Desert."

At this moment, Ice Emperor Hai Bodong quickly spoke up and introduced Wang Chen to Mittel Tengshan.

"He is also a senior."

When it came to Queen Medusa, Ice Emperor Hai Bodong didn't know how to introduce her.

He simply said that he would treat her as a senior.

He didn't directly introduce Queen Medusa as Wang Chen's wife, even though he had initially noticed the relationship between Wang Chen Queen Medusa.

However, it is unclear how things are progressing.

Naturally, he couldn't just speak casually, lest he be too abrupt and offend Wang Chen Queen Medusa.

Even though Ice Emperor Hai Bodong is not as adept at interpersonal relationships as Mittel Tengshan, he is not a brainless person, as he was able to become the Supreme Elder of the Mittel Family.

He and Wang Chen have a fairly good relationship now, so he naturally wouldn't do anything foolish in this kind of situation.

"Master Wang, senior."

Mittel Tengshan also bowed very respectfully to Wang Chen Queen Medusa.

Upon hearing Ice Emperor Hai Bodong's introduction, Mittel Tengshan also learned who Wang Chen was.

As a long-established family that has opened Mittel Auction House throughout the Jia Ma Empire, the Mittel Family has a very good intelligence system.

What Wang Chen did in the Black-Corner Region was truly remarkable.

Even though Wang Chen didn't reveal too much, he didn't hide too much either.

Although the Sixth-Grade Alchemist status was not officially certified, the Fifth-Grade Alchemist was initially certified.

Such a young Fifth-Grade Alchemist is certainly worth paying attention to.

It should be noted that Pill King Gu He, was older than Wang Chen was when he broke through to the Fourth Grade.

But even in the Jia Ma Empire, he was a dark horse in alchemy.

He was eventually recruited by the Misty Cloud Sect, and with the Misty Cloud Sect full support, he is now Sixth-Grade Alchemist.

A young Alchemist as talented as Wang Chen naturally commands even more attention.

The Mittel Family's intelligence network had also collected some basic information about Wang Chen.

His name is Wang Chen, he's so young, and he's an Advanced Alchemist.

Everything makes sense now.

Mittel Tengshan naturally also realized Wang Chen's true identity.

Mittel Tengshan became even more enthusiastic about this exceptionally talented Advanced Alchemist.

With Mittel Tenshan, a man well-versed in interpersonal relationships, present, the atmosphere in the Reception Hall was very warm and lively.

Although the number of people was not large, Wang Chen Queen Medusa felt very comfortable.

Even the very aloof Queen Medusa felt much better about Mittel Tengshan.

It's at least much better than my impression of Ice Emperor Hai Bodong.

After some rambling conversation, Wang Chen shifted the topic to his main objective.

"By the way, I wonder how many Exotic Metal the Mittel Family has collected so far?"

Upon hearing Wang Chen's question, Mittel Tengshan stopped and then spoke to Wang Chen.

"Because the collection time was limited, and the Exotic Metal that our predecessors needed were not highly valued throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire."

Therefore, collecting them is relatively difficult.

Fortunately, my Mittel Family also has quite a few connections.

After several months of effort, we have now collected 250 tons of various Exotic Metal.

Mittel Tengshan quickly recounted his efforts over the past few months.

Wang Chen was quite excited upon hearing this answer.

Although all kinds of Exotic Metal have very high density, an Exotic Metal of 250 tons is still quite a lot.

It was at least much more than what Wang Chen had collected on his own and what he had gathered in the Snake People Tribe.

As expected of the Mittel Family, who specialize in running auction houses.

The saying "everyone has their own expertise" is indeed very true.

It took only a few months of help from the Mittel Family to collect more than all his previous efforts combined.

Wang Chen, on the other hand, only needed to give up a few pills that he didn't care much about to easily obtain so many Exotic Metal that he wanted.

Indeed, professional tasks should be left to professionals.

An expert is indeed much more capable than a novice.

"When will you need these Exotic Metal, senior?"

I have already transferred those Exotic Metal to the headquarters in the capital. You can retrieve them whenever you need them, senior.

At the same time, I also issued orders for all branches of the Mittel Auction House to continue collecting Exotic Metal."

When it comes to his professional field, Mittel Tengshan is also very confident.

She quickly and professionally explained her arrangements to Wang Chen.

Upon hearing Mittel Tengshan's words, Wang Chen was also quite excited.

"Good."

"Then I'll trouble the Mittel Family to continue helping me collect Exotic Metal. I absolutely won't let my friends suffer losses."

"Whatever pills you need, just provide the ingredients, and I won't charge you anything."

Wang Chen also made his promise to Mittel Tengshan.

For Wang Chen, this promise was actually not a loss at all.

After all, even though there's no payment, the rule of three portions of medicinal herbs and one portion of pills still needs to be followed.

With Wang Chen's current alchemy skills, it's equivalent to getting two sets of medicinal herbs for free.

If Mittel Tengshan needs to refine enough high-grade pills, Wang Chen can earn even more medicinal materials by using the Golden Finger to enhance him.

Moreover, there's also a chance to get the recipe for free when refining pills.

Even without getting the pill formula for free, it's not too bad.

Upon hearing Wang Chen's promise, Mittel Tengshan's breathing became a little rapid.

Advanced Alchemist are extremely rare in the Jia Ma Empire.

Gu He, the only Sixth-Grade Alchemist, is an elder of the Misty Cloud Sect.

It's generally impossible for outsiders to get him to take action.

Below him was Fa Ma, the Alchemist Association of the Jia Ma Empire.

However, as the guild leader of a prestigious Alchemist guild, it is generally very difficult to get the other party to help.

Even if we could get them to do it, the reward would be quite substantial.

The promise Wang Chen is making now is undeniably significant.

The boost to the Mittel Family was considerable.

The Mittel Family is an auctioneer, and they have amassed a considerable collection of various medicinal resources.

The saying "being near the water tower gives you an advantage" is no joke.

If all those medicinal resources could be converted into elixirs, the Mittel Family would definitely rise to prominence.

As the current patriarch of the Mittel Family, Mittel Tengshan also has the idea of carrying forward and expanding the Mittel Family.

Or perhaps every leader of a faction has this idea.

Of course, as the leader of the Mittel Family and the owner of Mittel Auction House throughout the Jia Ma Empire, Mittel Tengshan was not the kind of person who would be easily blinded by profit.

Although Wang Chen said that, Mittel Tengshan would not do so.

Establishing a relationship with an Advanced Alchemist is far more important than paying less in compensation.

It's important to know that the Misty Cloud Sect only managed to halt its decline by winning over Gu He.

Before Gu He grew up, the Misty Cloud Sect was a laughing stock among all the sects in the Northwestern Continent.

After all, when the Misty Cloud Sect was first established, it was a first-class sect in the Northwestern Continent.

There are more than one Dou Zong level expert among them, not to mention Dou Emperor level experts.

Now, let alone Dou Zong, there are only two Dou Emperor level experts left.

The difference is considerable.

Fortunately, Gu He grew up later, which led to an increase in the strength of the Misty Cloud Sect.

While there are still few experts at the Dou Zong Dou Emperor levels, the core strength at the Dou Wang and Dou Ling levels has made rapid progress.

It's easy to imagine how important an Advanced Alchemist is.

Mittel Tenshan is not the kind of person who is short-sighted.

Of course, being an old hand who was well-versed in human relationships, he wouldn't directly refuse Wang Chen.

After all, Wang Chen had just made the promise, and if he refused it outright, it would be somewhat embarrassing.

"Thank you very much, Master Wang."

"I happen to have a pill here, and I would like to ask Master Wang to refine it for me."

Mittel Tengshan also responded in a very cooperative manner.

He made up his mind to first ask Wang Chen to refine a pill that wasn't too difficult to make for free.

He then offered to pay Wang Chen to refine even more difficult pills, which he needed even more.

This allowed Wang Chen to fulfill his promise and make himself proud.

At the same time, it won't let Wang Chen suffer any losses.

It must be said that this shrewd old fox, who is adept at navigating social situations, truly makes people feel like they're basking in a warm breeze.

"No problem, no problem."

Wang Chen readily agreed to Mittel Tengshan's request.

Wang Chen was unaware of Mittel Tengshan's thoughts.

If they knew, they would probably just laugh it off.

The Mittel Family might make a small profit, but Wang Chen would never lose out.

After the exchange was over, Mittel Tengshan arranged a banquet to entertain Wang Chen Queen Medusa.

There weren't many people attending the banquet, but the food was very plentiful.

As expected of the Mittel Family, who run an auction house, their food and drink are indeed very exquisite.

Even Wang Chen, a time traveler, was quite satisfied with the banquet arranged by Mittel Tengshan.

Not to mention Queen Medusa, who lived in the barren Tagor Desert.

Shortly after the banquet ended, a servant of the Mittel Family entered carrying a mid-grade Storage Ring.

Mittel Tenshan accepted the Storage Ring and waved for the servant to leave.

"Master Wang, this contains the Exotic Metal the Mittel Family has collected over the past few months."

Take a look and see if it meets your needs?

Mittel Tengshan also quickly walked up to Wang Chen and handed him the Wang Chen Storage Ring.

Wang Chen wasted no time and took the Storage Ring directly, then began to examine the Exotic Metal inside.

Sensing the Exotic Metal piled up in his Storage Ring, Wang Chen couldn't help but smile.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Sensing the Exotic Metal within his Storage Ring, Wang Chen was very satisfied, exclaiming "Good!" three times in a row, fully expressing his excitement.

After putting away the Storage Ring, Wang Chen happily said to Mittel Tengshan, "I won't take these Exotic Metal for nothing. You can choose whatever pills you want."

Wang Chen, who had acquired so many Exotic Metal, was not stingy.

He took out five Jade Bottle directly from his Storage Ring.

"This contains Dou Ling Pill, Emperor-Breaking Pill, Sect-Breaking Pill..."

Wang Chen quickly explained the pills he had taken out.

This was specifically chosen by Wang Chen based on Mittel Tengshan's strength.

Mittel Tengshan was only 5-Star Dou King, and this Dou Ling Pill could directly increase his strength.

This Dou Ling Pill was specially refined by Wang Chen before he left Jia Nan Academy.

After all, there are quite a few experts at the Dou Wang level in the Jia Nan Academy.

Many players whose strength has not reached the Peak Dou King are unable to use the Emperor-Breaking Pill.

However, the demand for pills like the Dou Ling Pill, which directly increase strength, is also very high.

Adhering to the principle that not making a profit is a loss, Wang Chen also spent some time helping to refine the pills before leaving.

Of course, Wang Chen didn't earn a particularly large amount of medicinal herbs after all this.

Because after his teacher broke through to the Sixth-Grade Alchemist, many Dou Wang elders asked him to help refine pills.

When Wang Chen left later, he only picked up some of the medicinal herbs that had slipped through his net before he had collected them.

Even so, thanks to the Golden Finger system, Wang Chen still had some Dou Ling Pill in his Storage Ring.

Using it to trade Exotic Metal now would be incredibly profitable.

Upon hearing Wang Chen's introduction, not only Mittel Tengshan, but even Ice Emperor Hai Bodong standing to the side couldn't help but breathe rapidly.

He couldn't use other pills, but the Sect-Breaking Pill was extremely useful to him.

Although he is only at the 7-Star Dou Huang now, he is confident that he can cultivate to the Peak Dou Huang after breaking the seal and restoring his strength.

With the help of a Sect-Breaking Pill, the chances of breaking through to the Dou Zong will be much greater.

"I choose the Sect-Breaking Pill!"

As the current head of the Mittel Family, he naturally knows how to make the right choice.

Although the Dou Ling Pill is the most useful to him, it can immediately enhance his strength.

However, the Sect-Breaking Pill is the most valuable.

Moreover, the Supreme Elder, Ice Emperor Hai Bodong, has now returned and his strength has increased to the 7-Star Dou Huang.

Reaching the Peak Dou Huang can be said to be just around the corner.
