Alex only learned about the overwhelming news and information the next day. Obviously, he didnât care
very much for it.
To him, it was just his daily life and a fact. Most of the people on his side knew about these, and
whether the ordinary people knew about it or not didnât matter.
He returned to California the next day with Brittany. Luna was an extra person that tagged along with
them.
Hygieia Valley was a bit far from Alaska, but it was pretty close to California. If they wanted to look for
Dragon Blood Vine, it was easier to start the journey from California.
As for Martiny, she seemed to be particularly concerned about the information about the Witch Cult.
Freya and her mother went off to follow the trail of the Witch Cult after getting some information from
Alex. As for Alex, he couldnât just drop everything to help Freya in that matter, as he still needed to go
to Hygieia Valley. He requested Martiny, and that was to help him collect as many things related to the
formation patterns as possible.

After arriving in California, Luna left them first.
She said that she would give Alex two days before they set off for Hygieia Valley. After finding out that
Brittany was back to normal, Waltz and Maya also rushed back.
This time, even the Assex family came over. It was pretty lively.
Brittanyâs spirit and mood was lifted, and she bought a huge amount of ingredients, and everyone
made some tarts as a family.
To Alex, this was a rarity.
When William was still around, Brittany had been busy. Where did she have the time to make tarts?
Didnât the nanny make ones that were nice enough? When William had the accident, Brittany got even
busier. From the time she had woken up half a year ago, it felt like she hadnât cooked a single meal.
There were many types of tarts. Vegetarian, meat, caramel, and all kinds of fruits.
In fact, the ones making the tarts around the table were the ones who didnât know how to cook. As for
Alex, who was usually the chef, he didnât participate. The tarts they made were uneven and not the
prettiest, butâ¦
That was where the fun was, wasnât it?
Only, there seemed to be a strange atmosphere between the several women.
The Assex siblings seemed to be isolated by Waltz and the others. They were divided into two distinct
factions.
Perhaps in the eyes of Waltz and the others, Dorothy wasnât a good match for Alex because she was
an ordinary person, and the two came from different worlds.
However, if they knew that this âordinary personâ was Aunt Rockefeller, whom they obeyed the words of
and were even a little afraid of, how would they feel?
Everyone was eating the tarts when someone walked in.
âBrother Alex!â
It was Sky Melvis, captain of Californiaâs Divine Constabulary.
Before Sky came, he had already given Alex a call. He had a big box in his arms, which contained the
alchemy materials that he had collected. He had gathered all the medicinal material needed to be used
to restore his energy core and had asked Alex to help refine a pull called the Energy Recovery Pill.
In addition, Alex had also asked him to help purchase a batch of more commonly used medical
material to refine the spiritual demon pill.
He had arrived just in time, as they had just had their fill of tarts.
They carried the medicinal materials and headed to refine the pills.
The alchemy furnace that had been in the Villaâs basement had already been taken back by Alex.
The Energy Recovery Pill could repair damaged energy cores. In terms of grade, this pill was
considered to be second grade.
First grade was the lowest, while ninth grade was the highest
Therefore, it wasnât difficult to refine this kind of pill. Alex could refine this pill even before he obtained
the sight of his Divine Eye and even before he cultivated his spiritual consciousness. Now with the help
of these two abilities, it became even easier to refine. He refined, fused, condensed, and divided the pill
all in one go.
Sky had brought over quite a few materials, and the amount of it was enough to make three furnaces
full of Energy Recovery Pillâ¦
Of course, this had also been Alexâs request. According to the rules of alchemy in the cultivation world,
three times the materials were required to make a furnace of pills. In other words, if someone were to
ask an alchemist to help refine a pill, they needed to give the alchemist three times the amount of the
materials to be used because there was no guarantee that the alchemist would be 100% successful.
On the contrary, refining pills had a high failure rate.
50% success rate was the norm.
