From Alchemy Apprentice to All-Powerful God King

In the chaotic camp, Matthew and Luca, panting, looked at the corpses and the shattered carriages before them.

Neither of them looked too good.

After being separated for less than a day, the caravan has become what it is now, and can no longer even be called a caravan.

"What happened? Where are Holly and the others?"

Luca's face was ashen. Although they didn't have much to do with the caravan, he had been chatting enthusiastically with some of the merchants over the past few days.

Now they've all turned into cold corpses lying here.

"It must have been the same group that did it this morning."

Matthew also saw Webber, who had been impaled by a spear and was now dead in the carriage.

He immediately activated the ability of the Living Dead Label, placed his hand on the corpse, and simultaneously turned the pages of the Otherworld Chronicle, displaying the scene before his death.

However, there wasn't much useful information.

After examining all the corpses in the camp, Matthew roughly deduced what had happened.

At the same time, he saw that familiar figure again.

"Flynn!"

Even without seeing each other's faces, people who have known each other for several years can recognize each other even from the slightest movement.

The main point is that he looks for himself as soon as he appears. Who else could it be but Flynn?

Not only him, but Matthew also recognized the overweight man standing next to him.

"Warren, the owner of the jade gambling quarry!"

Before leaving Val Town with Luca, they had met briefly at the guild, but at that time he was looking for the Alchemist Bishop.

Unexpectedly, these brutes were all from the stone gambling market in Waer Town!

"What do we do now, Brother Ma?"

After piling all the bodies together and burying them, Luca looked at Matthew with an angry expression.

"What do we do? Let's take them down!"

Matthew's face didn't reveal much expression, but he couldn't sleep or eat until he killed Flynn.

This person was already on his kill list from the very beginning.

Then fireflies were released, and they followed their guidance.

Although he didn't know why Grace released the fireflies, he could see through the alternate world record that she was still the fireflies' master.

In other words, Grace hasn't run into any problems yet.

However, the biggest commotion caused by his ice worm since it entered his right hand was when the fire worm landed on him just now.

Soon, they crossed a dense forest and arrived at a tribal building deep in the wasteland.

Matthew could already see people waiting outside the jade gambling site.

"They've occupied an indigenous tribe's settlement. What are we supposed to do?"

Luca, standing to the side, couldn't wait any longer and pulled out several disposable magic insects, each with a power no less than that of the swarming insects.

After observing for a moment, Matthew pressed Luca.

"No rush, wait until dawn."

Compared to the fact that we just succeeded now, the best time to strike is closer to dawn.

Meanwhile, Matthew left his post and began alchemy.

They wanted to kill a second-tier ability user right under the nose of a third-tier ability user and then take the person away.

The resources we have are far from enough.

We need to pull off a game-winning move.

As the full moon moved westward across the sky, Luca kept a close watch on the situation nearby, while simultaneously setting traps.

Matthew, meanwhile, was busy refining the self-destructing bug 3.0.

[Alchemy Maniac Lv.2: 2450/5000 experience points, success rate +20]

[Experience points 2460/5000.....]

[Experience points 2470/5000.....]

As time went by, Matthew gulped down a magic potion, restoring his physical strength and magic to their peak state.

At this moment, ten 3.0 self-destructing bugs are quietly lying on the gray mist alchemy platform.

"This time, let's see where you run!"

As dawn broke, Matthew quietly slipped into the tribe alone.

The bandits who had been guarding the area all night were now at their most vulnerable.

Using the abilities of the cryptid worm, Matthew easily entered the room where Grace was imprisoned.

"Who?"

Both of them looked a little haggard after not sleeping all night, but Holly still keenly sensed the movement.

Before they could utter a sound, Matthew covered their mouths and then gradually appeared in front of them.

The moment Grace saw Matthew, her pupils dilated instantly, and she could hardly contain her joy.

After making a shushing gesture, Matthew removed the magic-suppressing stones from their bodies, indicating that they should follow him.

At this moment, the Hidden Slug's abilities were fully revealed; even with two more people, Matthew's magic was sufficient to cover them.

And so, the three of them quietly withdrew from the tribe under the watchful eyes of everyone, and met up with Luca, who was waiting for them, outside the dense forest.

"Matthew, I knew you'd come to save me!"

Grace could not contain her emotions and hugged Matthew tightly.

However, he quickly pushed her away, saying, "Now is not the time for reminiscing. You should leave with Luca first. They'll probably find out by daybreak. Go as far away as you can before then."

Holly was equally grateful, but still somewhat puzzled: "How did you find us?"

Matthew took out the fireflies and explained, "We found the camp, discovered you were attacked, and came here guided by the fireflies."

However, he did not return the firefly to Grace.

"Let me borrow it for a bit, I'll return it to you later."

"Hmm, you can have it, I don't need it anyway." Grace didn't hesitate at all, but then she realized what she meant. "You're going back? No, Matthew, you have to come with us."

Even Holly nodded in agreement: "They have third-tier ability users; they're lucky they managed to escape. Don't be foolish."

But Matthew was not persuaded by them. Instead, he put away the demonic insects and turned to walk towards the tribe.

"Don't worry, I'm not going there to die."

Grace tried to step forward to persuade them, but Holly and Lucara stopped her.

The latter said, "Don't worry, I've known Brother Ma for so long and I've never seen him suffer a setback."

"Besides, we prepared all night yesterday. Those guys are definitely going to be in deep trouble!"

......

Matthew returns to the indigenous tribe.

Last night, he had thoroughly investigated the personnel arrangements through the demonic insects. Warren, the owner of the arena, was in the very center, while Flynn was near the room where Grace was imprisoned.

"If we can resolve this quickly enough, we can leave before Warren even realizes what's happening."

Matthew kept mentally rehearsing the route and timing of the operation.

After adjusting himself to his best condition, he used his Hidden Flea's abilities to cover his entire body and walked towards the house where Flynn was.

As he climbed over the wall and landed on the ground, Flynn, who was resting with his eyes closed inside, also sensed something.

"who!"

He flung out two wind blades, shooting them toward the location where the sound had just come from.

But the next moment, the wind blades were scattered in mid-air, and at the same time, Matthew also deactivated the Hidden Slug's ability, appearing openly in front of Flynn.

"Matthew! How did you find this place?"

Flynn was somewhat surprised by Matthew's arrival, after all these years of getting to know him, the other man was clearly not stupid.

They must have something to rely on to dare to appear in front of me like this.

Matthew's face was expressionless, his gaze indifferent, as if looking at a dead man, as he spoke in a cold tone.

"It has nothing to do with other people or things; I'm here to send you on your way."
