The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1701

Chapter 1701: Unlock The Vault

The cleric spun the wheel on the vault door, unlocking the vault.

Inside, magical artifacts had been simply thrown in piles, clearly hastily relocated, but many of the shelves were already empty. So, if this was the extent of what was left, someone had already made off with the most valuable of the Clan’s items.

Or, they were never here.

"This vault was the one that we used for Alchemy potions, and it was usually pretty empty, they went out as fast as they came in.

But it is secure enough for volatile compounds," the cleric explained.

Remi nodded, confirming her words for Karl. This place smelled like they stored potions and herbs in it for many years. The scents of medicine had seeped into everything.

Nerissa sighed, knowing that this was going to take some time.

"You know, there is an easy way to do this." Allie offered.

"Oh?"

"Just take the live plants and the cash. It’s not like you really need any of the other stuff, it’s mediocre at best. All the good stuff was likely on the Elders that died in combat. They would have cleared out all the most valuable items for the attack, to give themselves an advantage in combat.

So, clear out the Clan’s cash reserves, and let the survivors take what is left to pawn or buy their place in a new Clan."

"That’s actually brilliant. I was planning to do the math, but that is much easier, and even if we come up short, we’ve at least received something to make it clear to the other Clans that we complied with the rules without skipping the punishment, or going overboard."

Allie nodded. "The Darklight Host does it because we’ve got so many craftsmen in the Clan that we only need raw materials anyhow. So, we don’t take the magical artifacts unless it’s something really rare."

Nerissa sighed. "That’s possibly the most devastating casual flex I’ve ever heard."

The Elf giggled, then winked at Karl. "Soon, your Clan will be just as bad. Trust me, there is never one Runecrafter. It’s impossible, they will always eventually agree to take an apprentice, and then the warehouse of the Clan will start to fill with Immortal Rank gear.

So much of it that you will have a hard time finding local customers for it all after a few decades.

In a way, it’s an advantage that you’re a merchant Guild. You’ve already got the network to move the extra gear once your whole Clan is rocking the best of the best.

Now, do you need a storage item or something? What’s the holdup?"

Nerissa shook her head, and took out a Villa Stone to throw all the cash and plants into. She would give the plants to Socrate and the Herbalists later. For now, they would be fine sitting in a Villa.

"Alright, let’s head off to the Hyperion Sect and see what is going on there.

They were never a large Clan to begin with, only a few hundred members. So, there likely won’t be much of an issue with them."

"Famous last words." The Elf joked.

Rarely would they perform any sort of rites over them. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
