The Golem Mage

”Before you all go room hunting, i still have something for you,” Alec mentioned, determined not to forget to give them the cultivation pills again.

They were set to enter the competition the following day, and Alec knew it might be too late to distribute the pills then.

He wanted them to use the pills now, while they had the chance to cultivate throughout the night, hoping for favourable results.

Although Alec knew the pills were valid, but it was still the first time he would give someone the pills produced by the Primordial Tree, he could only hope they worked as the system described.

”Now that I think about it, you did promise us goodies, We only forgot because we were eager to get to the Academy quickly, so, what is it?” Sophia asked, her small fist balled in front of her as her eyes sparkled with curiosity and excitement.

The entire team gathered around Alec, eagerly awaiting what he had to offer, even Selene, who was about to leave the inn to register the War God Mage Academy for the competition, paused, eager to see what Alec had in store.

Because despite the War God Mage Academy receiving an invitation it didn’t mean they were part of the participating team yet, they had to do the registration in order to be considered a part of the academy teams participating in the tournament.

Their invitation was merely a result of the academy’s past fame, as not many viewed the War God Mage Academy as a powerhouse academy anymore, they were primarily invited to meet the required number of academy team participants, as the general belief was that the War God Mage Academy would not achieve noteworthy results.

The rumours which circulated, is claiming that each younger generation of mages from the War God Mage Academy was weaker than the last.

This was attributed to the academy’s acceptance of mages with all types of affinities, without any standout individuals to lead them.

So with senior students like Selene graduating soon, there was a belief that there would be no one left to champion the name of the War God Mage Academy against the other academies again.

Alec Brought out a small pill bottle containing the ten Tier 4 cultivation pills, and as he unveiled them, the members looked at the pills, initially appearing clueless.

However, Lucas, Beatrice, Pale, and Selene quickly became shocked as they observed the engravings and the IV markings on the pills.

It was evident to them that Alec was holding Tier 4 cultivation pills of the highest quality.

Pale gulped, feeling his greed intensify to a new level, he yearned to dash over and snatch all the pills from Alec’s hands.

These type of pills were the very reason why he continued to act as a loyal guard to Luna despite hating the job.

He rarely did he receive such pills, and even when he did, the quantities provided were limited, these pills possessed the potential to solidify his cultivation realm, purify his impurities from using power stones and propel him to the next stage of cultivation without issues.

As during the Mid Rank realm , relying solely on power stones for cultivation was no longer advisable, as they would leave impurities in the body.

Mages who solely depended on power stones during this stage often found their potential restricted, and some might not even be able to break through pass the Tier 4 Mage realm.

This was precisely why the alchemists were so wealthy and respected.

As they were entrusted with power stones and other materials to aid in refining pills, however, the success rate of refining pills often did not justify the resources invested.

”Ha-ha, I was just about to reach a breakpoint, but now our captain has brought Tier 4 cultivation pills for us,” Pale chuckled gleefully.

”This way, I’ll be able to enter the next realm quickly, and since you’re planning to give them to us, it must mean you have enough for yourself too.”

”Considering that the vice captain should be getting four pills, Lucas and I would share three each as well, given that we are the only Tier 4 mages left,” Pale shamelessly declared, as he stretched his hand towards the pill in Alec’s right hand, attempting to snatch it away.

However, Alec swiftly intervened, using his left palm to hold Pale’s face in place, playfully preventing him from reaching for the bottle of Tier 4 pills.

Their comical interaction brought a light-hearted moment to the scene.

”Shut up and sit down! Don’t try to guess my intentions, and this is all the Tier 4 cultivation pills i have at the moment” Alec snapped, forcefully pushing Pale backwards with his hands.

He cringed at Pale’s shameless act, at this moment, he realized how much he missed the arrogant version of Pale, Alec couldn’t quite comprehend what had transpired during his absence from the rest of the team, but it was clear that they had all become far too comfortable with each other.

Observing the camaraderie between Arthur and Pale, it was easy for Alec to deduce who had influenced Pale’s shameless behaviour.

Slowly uncorking the small bottle, Alec allowed the medicinal scent of the Tier 4 cultivation pills inside to permeate the air, this act brought his dazed teammates back to reality, as they were still in shock over where Alec had managed to acquire such precious cultivation resources.

”And since these pills belong to me, I choose who I want to give them to!” Alec declared, his gaze fixed firmly on Pale.

He then threw one of the pills towards Brandon, who stood at the side, looking shocked.

As all eyes followed the pill flying towards Brandon, the room was tense with anticipation. Brandon nervously caught the pill, unsure of what to say.

” that belongs to you ” Alec aid

Brandon : ”¬”

”I don’t think I can accept this, Alec,” Brandon stammered.

”We have other Tier 4 mages on the team, and if this is all you have left, why not use them yourself? You could reach the peak of Tier 4 and become even stronger. I believe the stronger you are, the better our team’s chances.”

Alec ignored Brandon’s plea and summoned another small pill bottle from his space.

He swiftly threw it to Brandon, who managed to catch it, his eyes widening as he beheld the contents of the bottle, while the whole team gasp in surprised, even Selene, who had been neutral until now, frowned deeply at what she saw.

”Ten Tier 3 Cultivation Pills, when considering the amount of power stones used to refine them, would still be seen as a loss no matter how much they solidify the realm, such a thing isn’t really needed except when one steps into the Mid rank realm,” Major Selene said, but Alec simply shrugged his shoulders and responded,

”It’s mine anyway. I can do whatever I want with it.”

Alec turned to Brandon and urged him,

”What are you waiting for?

Quickly put the Tier 4 pill inside the bottle of Tier 3 pills, you are at the peak of Tier 3 Mages realm now, so I want you to use the Tier 3 pills to push yourself to the Tier 4 Mage Realm before using the Tier 4 pill, you don’t have to worry about your foundation, as using these pills is bound to purify your body and eliminate any impurities you may have, so you won’t have a problem using the Tier 4 pills once you enter the Tier 4 realm, believe me, your foundation will be solid beyond even your own comprehension.”

”All I want is for you to reach the Tier 4 Mage Realm by tomorrow, this is an order from me as your captain and young master. Can you do that for me?” Alec said with a small smile.

Brandon looked at Alec with gratitude before bowing and replying, ”I won’t disappoint you.”
