Three days later in Union City.
Inside a single cottage in Sector 7.
At 2 PM in the afternoon, Noland Lee entered the study on the second floor, locked the door, and pulled the curtains shut.
He called for Denise Green in his heart while placing a heavy cloth bag on the desk.
“I’m here~” Denise Green appeared in the flickering light of the torch.
“Please have a seat, Denise Green. The Golden Commerce Guild has been busy for two days, and they finally sorted out the spoils. I took a trip to Cindy’s and brought back all my share of the spoils. Let’s check the accounts.”
Noland poured two cups of hot tea onto the table and then pushed the jingling money bags in front of Denise Green.
Denise Green picked up the cloth bag, opened the folding space inside, and glanced at the spoils within.
After that, she held a notebook in her left hand and an ink pen in her right hand, carefully reading through the characters on the notebook to prevent errors:
“After closing the pollution zone, the eastern Area 117 nearshore has returned to normal. The combat alchemists of the Golden Commerce Guild cleaned up the battlefield.”
“They found 160 undamaged boxes of Life Elixir, 72 boxes of Mutant Potions for maintaining biochemical soldiers, and 54 boxes of artificial bone cards from the wreckage of cargo ships floating on the sea. In addition, there were thousands of soul-absorbing crystals filled with soul fragments.”
Denise Green looked up and asked:
“Noland, are the Golden Commerce Guild sure that artificial bone cards are the mysterious material for making the Alchemical Cube?”
Noland nodded:
“Yes, that’s right. Cindy told me before I brought the spoils back. The Re-forged Association’s monopoly on the secrets of alchemical constructs lies in the artificial bone cards produced by Tatis. Since this thing involves the secrets of the Alchemy Cathedral, no artificial bone cards were included in the spoils allocated to me by the Golden Commerce Guild. They used Life Elixir to replace the artificial bone cards as part of my spoils. I simply asked them to replace the Mutant Potions they originally planned to give me with Life Elixir as well. Now, I only have a few artificial bone cards that I picked up from the sea.”
As Noland spoke, he took out a crystal clear and flawless transparent bone card from the drawer.
Upon closer inspection, it is possible to see that the interior of this artificial bone card, which looks like transparent mahjong tiles, contains hair-thin rune patterns.
It comes with the feature “Soul Link” but is not used to control the undead.
It cannot be used as a casting material for summoning undead spirits.
Its sole purpose is to help the user control lifeless metal creations with a “Soul Link”.
The core component of alchemical constructs, the Alchemical Cube, has always been tightly controlled by the Re-forged Association. The artificial bone cards produced by Tatis are the key.
