Simultaneous Transmigration: We Level Up Alone Across Multiple Worlds
Chapter 64 Preparations for the Promotion Ceremony
Chen Chen sat in the chair in the study, maintaining the same posture he had before being pulled into the Source Castle.
But in that brief period of time, he did manage to draw some of the gray fog away from the Source Castle.
The quantity is not large.
The ball of water was no bigger than a palm, and compared to the endless gray fog in the Source Castle space, it was not even a drop of water. Klein did not notice anything unusual about it at all.
Chen Chen closed his eyes and sank his consciousness into the depths of his soul.
The starry sky of the Great Void Abyss unfolded in his consciousness.
The Milky Way spirals horizontally, with gravitational tides rising and falling slowly.
I paused here for a moment, feeling the rhythm of the starry sky.
A thick gray fog appeared at the edge of the Great Void Abyss.
The edges of the mist are dissipating, slowly being torn apart and swallowed by the abyss.
The digestion process is slow; each wisp of digested ash transforms into a faint warmth that seeps outward along the veins of the soul and eventually sinks into the flesh and blood.
Chen Chen felt the warmth coursing through his bones and gently adhering to the walls of his blood vessels, like a thin, almost imperceptible membrane.
The physical body is gradually strengthened... This is much gentler than using sequence potions.
Chen Chen opened his eyes; the digestion of the gray mist was still ongoing.
At this rate, it would take several days for a palm-sized ball to be fully absorbed, at which point the effects of physical enhancement would become more apparent.
There are more pressing matters at hand.
Two days later, the butler, Maurice, returned to the mansion.
All materials on the procurement list have arrived.
The quartz sand was purchased from a long-established shop on the watchmaking street. The particles are uniform and make a slight rustling sound when rubbed between the fingers.
The silver tuning fork was purchased from a music store. It has a fork body about three fingers long and produces a long, lingering sound when struck.
The cog grass roots were dug up by old gardener Tom from the shadows of the north wall of the abandoned clock tower. Pale blue sap seeped from the broken ends, and the grass had a slightly astringent smell.
The shell of the timeworm was contained in a flat wooden box sealed with lead. When Chen Chen opened it and held it up to the candlelight, he could see a faint layer of oily sheen.
The condition of each material was checked one by one.
All meet the standards.
The Sequence 8 Watchmaker's Potion was completed that night.
Chen Chen closed the doors and windows in the study.
The darkness of Backlund outside the window was shrouded in the edge of the gaslight, with the occasional sound of a horse-drawn carriage wheel rolling over the cobblestones. The gaslight was extinguished, leaving only a single candle.
The candlelight remained motionless in the closed study, casting a steady halo of light.
The potion was contained in a thick-bottomed glass.
The liquid surface is calm and has a light amber color. When viewed against a candlelight, fine golden particles can be seen slowly settling inside the liquid.
Chen Chen picked up his cup.
The process of taking the medicine is similar to that of weighing a scale.
The moment the potion entered the body, its extraordinary, violent properties had not yet had a chance to spread before being suppressed by the excess of the soul.
The overwhelming power at the soul level left the potion with no room to resist. All the chaotic mental pollution was crushed before it even reached consciousness, leaving only the pure extraordinary properties to be allocated.
The watchmaker's precise strength and enhanced sense of time are loaded into the physical body the moment digestion is complete.
Chen Chen opened his eyes.
The candlelight was still burning.
As Chen Chen felt the changes in his body and looked at the burning candle in front of him, a thought of trying something arose in his mind.
Extend your right hand with your five fingers spread, palm facing the candlelight, and gently rotate your palm counterclockwise.
As the hand rotated, the candle slowly grew taller!
It's not that the candle has grown taller, but rather that it has returned to the state it was in when it was first lit.
Feeling the depletion of his spiritual energy, Chen Chen withdrew his hand, having already reached a conclusion in his mind.
Even with his superhuman physical and spiritual qualities, the effect of manipulating time is still limited. It's more than enough to use in battle, but it can't be a decisive move.
The potion is expected to be digested quickly, and the collection of materials for Sequence 7 was subsequently put on the agenda.
The main ingredient for Sequence 7 alchemists is Soul Vine Flower, which needs to be picked on the night of a full moon in a cemetery or at the edge of an ancient battlefield.
Among the auxiliary materials, moonstone essence and silver leaf extract can be obtained through legitimate pharmaceutical channels, without the need to resort to gray channels.
Chen Chen split the materials list into two parts.
The formal procurement process was handled by the steward, Morris, and followed the purchasing procedures of the Potion Merchants Guild. Chen Chen had his own arrangements for the Soul Vine Flower...
Meanwhile, the design and material preparation for the audience assistance glasses commissioned by Audrey officially began.
Chen Chen finished drawing the last part of the blueprint and put down his pencil.
Outside the window, the sound of horse-drawn carriage wheels rolling over the stone road was muffled, and the study became quiet again after they disappeared into the distance.
He opened the left drawer of the desk, took out the ledger, and checked it line by line from the last page.
Turn to the balance column.
The company's cash reserves have been depleted.
The factory's quarterly dividends will be paid next month.
The continuous purchase of potion materials had emptied their cash reserves, and the production of the glasses still required the purchase of white crystal and pure gold frame blanks.
Chen Chen closed the ledger, walked to the door, and took his coat from the coat rack.
I need to go to the bank now.
The deposit for the order that Audrey finalized at the last tarot meeting has been sitting in his private account and hasn't been touched.
Now is the time to use it.
The air in Backlund was thick with fog in late autumn. Chen Chen walked along Queen Street, turned into the financial district, and pushed open the copper-framed glass doors of Barclays Bank.
The lobby was filled with the smell of ink. The clerk recognized his face, took the passbook and seal, and efficiently completed the withdrawal procedure.
The gold pound was contained in a dark brown kraft paper envelope, its thickness just enough to feel its weight between your fingers.
Chen Chen put the envelope into the inside pocket of his coat and walked out of the bank.
On the way back to the mansion, I mentally reviewed the promotion path again.
In the Path of False Balance, the sequence is: 9. Scale Master, 8. Clock Maker, 7. Alchemist, 6. Light-Tracer, and 5. Life-Returning Priest.
The authority and power of the entire sequence can be traced back to the other Chen Chens; this knowledge was infused into his consciousness when it was used to feed back the magic potion in the Abyss of the Void.
In the first four sequences that do not require rituals, the only thing that can limit his advancement speed is the gold pound. According to Chen Chen's own estimation, at least before sequence five, he does not need to worry about whether his soul strength is sufficient to bear the extraordinary nature.
The ascension ceremony of the priest of life requires a recipient.
Those who are willing to sacrifice themselves for the greater good, even if they are not favored by fate, are the ones who are promoted and serve as the bridge for "repaying their fate" in the ceremony.
Furthermore, the person whose life is being taken must not know of their existence, not even by using an alternate account.
Chen Chen walked through two streets and crossed an intersection. While waiting for the carriage to pass, he gently stroked the edge of the envelope in his coat pocket.
Tingen City.
Dunn Smith.
The leader of the Night Watch squad died of cardiac arrest during the Tingen Evil God's offspring incident while trying to prevent the birth of the evil god.
The experience of witnessing the deaths of many teammates before his eyes, and his eventual death being a result of a scheme, all proved that he was not someone favored by fate.
The carriage passed by, and Chen Chen crossed the intersection.
Dunn's sacrifice must be "prevented" from being exposed, and the act of preventing it must come from someone else and be triggered in a natural way.
To deal with the fate controlled by the 0-08 sealed artifact through personal arrangements...
The hardest thing wasn't the fact that I couldn't expose myself, or that I was Ince Zangwell.
Rather... it's the goddess of the night behind Klein...
