Clark's new mission

When Jake returned to his residence, it was close to midnight. After freshening up, he teleported to the game world. Jake's figure once again appeared in the small village. Originally, Jake planned to leave the village and kill monsters to level up, as well as gather materials to sell for money. However, before he could even leave the village, he saw Clark with a happy expression on his face.

"Master, what makes you so happy?" Jake greeted.

In this village, everyone except the unscrupulous merchant at the general store had taught Jake skills. They could be considered Jake's masters.

"I succeeded in my research on the Super Gold Wound Medicine!" Clark shared his joy with his apprentice, visibly excited.

"Really? Congratulations, Master," Jake quickly congratulated. He remembered that Clark had asked him to gather herbs in the small forest at the outskirts of the village for his research. He didn't expect that Clark had already succeeded in his research.

"Master, may I see the new medicine you've developed?" Jake asked.

In the past few days, Jake hadn't only been fighting monsters. He had also started concocting potions and crafting weapons. Jake had bought an alchemy furnace from the general store, a white quality one with no added attributes. The general store did have slightly better alchemy furnaces, but given Mason's greedy nature, they were naturally expensive. Since Jake was currently short on money, he couldn't bear to buy a more decent one and had to make do with the most ordinary furnace for now.

"Sure," Clark didn't refuse Jake. He took out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket and handed it to Jake.

Jake used his appraisal skill on it. Super Gold Wound Medicine: Crafted by Grandmaster Alchemist Clark. Effects: Stops bleeding and accelerates wound healing upon consumption. Restores 30 HP per second for one minute, usable during combat.

Indeed, it was the Super Gold Wound Medicine! Jake's eyes turned envious. He had thought that as an advanced alchemist, the potions he crafted wouldn't be too bad in terms of effects. However, compared to Clark's Super Gold Wound Medicine, his own potions were truly nothing.

Advanced Gold Wound Medicine: Slows bleeding, restores 10 HP per second for 30 seconds, cannot be used during combat. That was the Gold Wound Medicine Jake crafted, and no matter how it was looked at, it was inferior to Clark's.

"Master, can you teach me the recipe for this Super Gold Wound Medicine?" Jake asked tentatively.

"You want the recipe for it?" Clark looked at Jake.

"Sure,Really?" Jake was pleasantly surprised. The Super Gold Wound Medicine was much better than the Advanced Gold Wound Medicine he had previously crafted. If he had the recipe for the Super Gold Wound Medicine, it would make monster hunting much easier in the future.

"Yes," Clark said. "However, you have to find something for me. If you find it, not only will I give you the recipe for the Super Gold Wound Medicine, but I'll also give you another recipe."

As he spoke, Clark took out another porcelain bottle and handed it to Jake. This time, it contained pills instead of powder. Violence Pill: Doubles attack, defense, and speed for thirty seconds.

Amazing! Jake's eyes turned even redder after seeing the attributes of the pill. It truly lived up to its name as the Violence Pill. The effect was so dominant and violent.

"Master, whatever you need, just tell me! Even if it means going through fire and water, I won't even frown!" Jake quickly patted his chest and declared.

"The Tianshan Holy Lotus! I need the Tianshan Holy Lotus!" Clark exclaimed, "If you bring me the Tianshan Holy Lotus, I will give you the recipes for these two elixirs, and you can have these two bottles for now."

"The Tianshan Holy Lotus? What is it? Where can I find it?" Jake asked.

"It is said that the Tianshan Holy Lotus grows at the peak of the Tianshan Mountains. It is snow-white with eight petals, and a fragrant aroma floats above its petals. Even if an ordinary person just smells it, it has a strengthening effect on the body. It is a top-grade medicinal herb for alchemy," Clark said with a fascinated expression.

"Where is Tianshan located?" Jake became interested in the Tianshan Holy Lotus as well. Such a good thing, even if he didn't have this task, Jake would want it for himself.

Unexpectedly, Clark shook his head after hearing Jake's question and said, "I don't know where Tianshan is either. In fact, I'm not even sure if the Tianshan Holy Lotus truly exists. I have never seen it myself. I've only come across descriptions of it in some esoteric texts."

"Ah!" Jake was astonished. He had to find something that he wasn't even sure existed. How was he supposed to find it? He was completely clueless.

"Anyway, I'll leave this task to you. I believe you won't disappoint me," Clark encouraged, looking at Jake.

Jake said with a mournful face, "But I don't believe in myself, Master. Can't I change tasks?"

"No!" Clark shook his head firmly. "As a Grandmaster for many years, I've always wanted to push my limits. The Tianshan Holy Lotus is my chance. If I obtain the Tianshan Holy Lotus, I will have a chance to reach a realm that previous generations couldn't!"

Clark's face was filled with excitement, longing, and even a hint of madness. It was clear that this idea didn't arise suddenly but had been brewing in his mind for a long time.

"Alright, I'll give it a try." Whether it was for himself or for Clark, Jake felt that he should give it a try. After all, this quest had no time limit or punishment for failure. Even if he couldn't find it, it wouldn't have any impact on Jake.

"Good! You truly are my excellent disciple! I haven't misjudged you!" Clark said with satisfaction. "If you can fulfill my wish, I will not only give you the recipes for these two elixirs, but I will also pass on all my lifelong knowledge to you!"

Clark's rewards were undoubtedly substantial. It was evident that he had an immense obsession with reaching the legendary God tier and was willing to pay any price for it. Clark's rewards made Jake's heart race with excitement.

When Jake first became Clark's disciple, although he learned the art of alchemy and even reached the advanced level, those skills were only a part of being an alchemist. In this real world, where everyone existed, people got sick, and as an alchemist, one needed not only to craft potions but also to know how to treat ailments. Jake currently only knew alchemy and had no knowledge of medical treatment. If he could learn how to treat illnesses, it would not only give him an additional ability in this world but also greatly help him in the real world.

Jake was extremely tempted by Clark's rewards. Even if the quest was difficult, he was determined to give it a try.
