Chapter 769
Larry exchanged glances with Mick and laughed.
Mick smiled. “Do you think we’re the type of people who love being sycophants? We’re just telling being honest here. This is the first time I’ve seen a genius like you!”
“That’s right! You said that we’d have eleven months to break through to level nine warrior king, but it all feels so dreamlike even now. I can’t imagine reaching such a high level of attainment!” Larry seemed to feel a little unconfident in his abilities.
“Let’s all work our hardest. As for the remaining eight halls, you need to send more people out to locate them, and don’t forget to reward those who have managed to find the other halls. Understood?” Severin then reminded everyone once again.
“Don’t worry. We’ll reward them for sure!” Gracie said boldly.
“All right then! This meeting is hereby dismissed. Try to get a breakthrough when you have time to spare!” Severin waved his hand and bid farewell to them.
He, along with the Shanahans, drove back home in no time. As soon as he returned home, he immediately began refining the pills alone in a room after taking a shower. To his surprise, Diane soon came over from the other room.
“It’s getting late, honey, and you’re still busy with all this alchemy. Don’t you think you’re pushing yourself a little too hard?”
Diane looked at the thin beads of sweat on Severin’s forehead and could not help but say to him when he finally finished refining one batch of pills.
Severin smiled. “I have no choice. Time is of the essence, and some things are best completed in advance rather than having to rush toward the end. My uncle-master gave me a deadline of one year, and before we know it, it’s almost the end of the first month! We have to set off earlier next year too, which means we only have about eleven months to make sure everything is in order!”
Severin put the two pills into the porcelain bottle that he had prepared earlier. “Luckily for me, I’m getting more and more proficient in refining pills. I can make two pills in one single refinement session using the same batch of materials. Although it takes a bit of extra mental strength to do so, refining two pills at once saves a lot of time!”
Diane had a look of admiration as she stared at the satisfied smile on Severin’s face. “My husband is so motivated! I can’t sleep now anyway, so I’ll watch you for a bit and head to bed once I’m feeling sleepy.”
