The Survivor and the System
Chapter 60: The Crisis of the Collin Clan!



After sitting for almost an hour, a beautiful maid finally walked in. Both of his hands carried silver trays, and in the middle of the tray was a dim red ring.


Taking the silver ring and commanding the maid to return, Yolanda personally handed the items to Edward and smilingly said."Sir, all the alchemy ingredients you need are all in the ‘Storage Ring'."


Extending his hand to retrieve the storage ring, Edward let it roll around in his palm then faintly nodded. His flat voice was also heard at the right moment."Okay. After refining the Cyclone Qi Pill, I will bring it to you."


Yolanda's pretty eyes were filled with excitement as she hurriedly nodded.


"All right, you don't have to take me out. I'll go alone."


Waving his hand, Edward took the ring and put it on his finger. Then, without turning around, he headed to the back of the living room and walked out. On the table, the blue jade card was still there because he did not want to owe too much to the people. So, he just left it there.


Staring at the black figure that disappeared through the door, Yolanda bit her red lips, then stepped forward to take the blue jade card into her hand. Pondering a little, he asked in a clear voice."Uncle Roger, to refine the Cyclone Spirit Pill, the success rate is not that high right?."


"really. It was said that even the success rate of the Baron Winger Pill King to refine a Cyclone Spirit Pill was only around 7 out of 10. For a normal fourth tier alchemist, his success rate was only about 5 out of 10" Roger said in a low voice.


"But this young man, he managed to perfect on the first try."Yolanda said as she swung her thin black eyebrows.


"Who knows, maybe his luck is good."Roger shook his head and did not care much about the matter. After all, to an alchemist, luck was a huge factor in a pill that was successfully refined. If luck were good, even when constantly refining a few times, one would not fail.


"Could it be ...... that he is not just a fourth tier alchemist?."Yolanda asked doubtfully after pondering a little.


"Haha, how is that possible. The number of fifth level alchemists in the Jia Empire can be calculated with one hand. For such a status, even if it was an empire or a great power like the Holy Moon Faction, they would all see this person as a VIP. Why would such a person come to our own Trading house to auction the pills."Roger laughs.


Right now, Yolanda also slightly nodded and sighed, laughing bitterly."I don't seem to have enough experience. I was worried that my previous doubts had negatively impacted this mysterious alchemist impression of us."


"You can't blame yourself for this. Such a big transaction, even I dare not answer easily. But you've been able so far so well. The matter regarding our relationship with that alchemist, in the future, you will only need to find time to get along kindly with him. As long as he doesn't have some kind of ill will towards us, then it'll be fine."Said Roger calmly.


Forcing a smile to her face as she nodded, Yolanda sat listlessly on the chair, revealing her figure. As her beautiful eyes flickered, having some doubts, she gently asked."What did he want to do with so many low-grade medicinal ingredients?."


"The medicinal ingredients had the effect of stopping the bleeding and strengthening the bones. I think he should be planning on making a cure."Roger muttered as his brows conicaled. Just as confused as he said."But with his status, why did he make this cheap healing medicine?."


Hearing this, Yolanda's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her long fingernails lightly touching the table. A moment later, awareness appeared to him, he softly said."It seemed like this young man seemed to care deeply for the Collin Clan ……"


Eyebrows furrowed tightly, Roger's expression suddenly turned into one of astonishment."Are you saying that he wants to give the healing medicine to the Collin Clan?."


“Recently I heard that the Murphy Clan had invited a first-rate Alchemist.and made a Pill named the Spring Pill and sold it for a low price, he said, it had taken half the buyers from the Javes townspeople, if the Collin Clan did not take action immediately, I was afraid that their market would end up empty and humiliating."Yolanda eyes narrowed as she issued her conclusion, contentedly smiling as she continued to explain."Right, the young man had already said that if there was a chance, he would cooperate with the Collin Clan and buy so many medicinal ingredients to make the current healing Pill could only mean one thing. He will cooperate with the Collin clan!."


"Heh, it looks like the Collin Clan is really lucky this time, while the Murphy Clan will be in trouble."After listening to Yolanda's analysis, Roger grinned. An envious expression appeared on his face as getting the help of a fourth level alchemist was not something that any clan could accept.


Slightly tilting her head, Yolanda gave an easy smile as she said."We should also make some contact with the Collin Clan right away, although adding flowers to the bracelet would make one somewhat happy, instead, providing help when most in need is a much better way to strengthen the bond of both parties."


Roger nodded his head, with a fourth level Alchemist behind them, connecting with the Collin Clan was now extremely important.


Out of the Trade House, as usual, Edward carefully circled the streets for at least half a day before finally taking off his disguise in a deserted alley.


Throwing and catching the bright red “ Storage” Ring in his hand, Edward smiled bitterly rather. This type of Storage Ring is made by an uncommon type of material called “Storage” Stone. The characteristic of this material is that there is a unique small space inside it where lifeless objects can be stored. Although this is very easy, due to the characteristics of “Stone Storage”, it is very valuable. “The lowest grade Storage” ring in Edward's hands only has a space of about three to four square meters, but it costs almost 100,000 gold. In the Collin Clan, Edward only saw his father and Harold who had Storage Rings.


However, even though it was extremely valuable, it was nothing compared to the ring that the previous system gave.


Edward played the Storage Ring for a while, hesitantly examining it. In the end she did not wear it but carefully kept it on her chest. This type of ring was very expensive, if seen by his father or someone else, he would have trouble explaining how he could get it.


Edward kicked the black coat into the gutter before carefully walking out of the deserted alley. After that he quickly ran back to his clan.


As Edward followed the path that passed through the clan house, he heard his father's angry voice from the Meeting Room. Eyelids twitched, Edward moved forward to quietly peek through the gap in the door.


"Damn it, Theo Murphy that bastard went too far, he actually dared to steal our business!."Inside the room, John Collin was currently on a rampage as he banged on the table. Tea from tea cups spilled all over the table.


"Right now, the market of the Collin Clan had lost a lot of visitors. The remaining traders in the market are also very worried and frightened. Some of them even secretly went to the Murphy Clan market. If this continues, in another half a month I fear it .. Our market will go bankrupt."The second elder said with a gloomy face while gritting his teeth together in anger.


"How about ... I bring some elites of our clan and secretly deal with that alchemist?”.The gaze of the third Elder was ferocious as he suggested this in a dark tone.


"At least there are two Grandmaster Fighters protecting the Alchemist, it won't be that easy.”John Collin helplessly said as he moved his hand to and fro.


"But if we continue in this way, our losses will be too great. The advantage of the Javes City market is a large part of the total revenue of our Collin clan."The Third Elder was a bit reluctant to back down.


The corner of John Collin's mouth twitched. Right now, he could not think of a good idea.


"On that day at the auction, didn't the mysterious alchemist say that there might be an opportunity where he would work with us? Seeing how Roger was so respectful to him, his level as an alchemist was clearly not low. If he can help us, then the Murphy Clan will definitely lose."Harold who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke in a soft voice.


"Ai, who knows if he just said randomly. For people of such status, what benefits would they get if they cooperated with us? For such a small profit, would they care?."John Collin laughed bitterly and shook his head as he sat on the chair and sighed.


The three old men were silent as well. Indeed, it was extremely impossible for the Collin Clan to establish relationships with people of such status.


"Damn!. We'll hold on for a few more days. If the Murphy Clan still doesn't learn to hold back then don't blame us for retaliating no matter the risk."Licking his lips, John Collin gripped the frame of the chair as an ominous glint flashed across his eyes.


at the doorstep, listening up to here, Edward faintly shrugged his shoulders as his hands played with the storage ring on his chest. Letting out a cold grin, he slowly left.
