Chapter 184: Chapter 157 Independent Formulation Synthesis! (Three in one, 5/5)_3 "What? Is this for real?" Liu Yiming was taken aback when he heard this. He had heard about the value of the Life-Lengthening Fruit. Now that he thought about it, it occurred to him that there were indeed hidden rewards in the five-star exam dungeons, including such items. People had mentioned this before. Normally, these items could only be found in specific instances, and the yield wasn’t high, so the price was quite steep. However, achieving tenfold completion of the daily tasks in the five-star exam instance could yield a random hidden reward, which might include valuable items like the Life-Lengthening Fruit. Considering Chen Mo had spent thirty days in the exam instance, it was quite possible he could have achieved this feat on several days. After all, he had the assistance of a five-star professional. With her powerful abilities, it wasn’t impossible for them to secure tenfold rewards for two people. At this moment, Liu Yiming felt even more envious. He had initially thought Chen Mo had made a fortune just by scoring five hundred extra points and earning eleven eternal gold coins with the help of the five-star girl. He hadn’t expected the additional hidden rewards from tenfold completion. With a wicked grin, he said, "Brother Mo, tell me honestly, does that five-star girl have a crush on you? Why else would she take such good care of you?" "Nonsense," Chen Mo replied. "It’s just that I’m a Summoner, and her abilities provide significant enhancement for me. Our synergy is high, so we’re very formidable when we team up." "I see." Hearing this, Liu Yiming didn’t dwell on it. After all, the Skeleton Mage wasn’t the only summoning-type profession; there were various others, some of which were quite powerful. For instance, the four-star Elemental Summoner who could summon units of earth, water, fire, wind, thunder, Sacred, and dark elements. The four-star Druid who could summon various beasts. The three-star Nature Summoner who could summon various treemen. Even summoners of the same star level as Chen Mo, like the two-star Little Elf Summoner, whose summons could heal but weren’t strong fighters, and the two-star Phantom Beast Summoner, whose summons had powerful attacking abilities but would disappear after sustaining a certain number of attacks... Most two-star Summoners had relatively weak combat abilities in the early stages. Three-star Summoners were more balanced; for example, the treeman could both take and deal damage, making it a solid option in the early stages. By the time they reached four stars, their strength increased dramatically. The beasts summoned by the Druid not only possessed passive skills but also active skills. Their combat power rose by a whole tier. Comparatively, a Skeleton Mage, who could summon a few more Skeleton Monsters than others of its class, seemed quite weak in the early stages. However, once they grew and developed, both two-star and three-star Summoners possessed quite good combat abilities. At least they were easier to manage than other professions of the same star level. The only issue was that if your early development was slow, by the time you reached the late game, others would already be deep into the late game. Therefore, professions with poor early development often received low ratings, unless their poor early stages were counterbalanced by an extremely powerful late game. But it was quite clear that a regular Skeleton Mage wasn’t overly powerful, even after multiple class advancements. If she had chosen to partner with Chen Mo simply because he was a Summoner, she could easily find a more powerful Elemental Summoner to team up with later. In that case, Chen Mo would become the least preferable option. Thinking this, Liu Yiming felt the likelihood of Chen Mo deepening his relationship with the girl had suddenly diminished significantly. After a brief chat with his younger brother, Chen Mo stepped onto the stage. He took out 25 Gold Coins and placed them on the table next to Pharmacist Lin. With the deposit being 10 Gold Coins, the total added up to precisely 35 Gold Coins. As Chen Mo was stowing the formula, Pharmacist Lin suddenly asked, "My friend, are you a four-star Pharmacist?" "No," Chen Mo shook his head. "I just know one." "I see." Pharmacist Lin nodded and didn’t press further. He then took some items out of his bag and handed them to Chen Mo. "These are the ingredients I’ve collected for making the Ten-Thousand Spirit Medicine. I have almost a full extra set here; consider them a gift." Chen Mo examined the materials and was surprised to find they included not only Legendary Level materials but even some Legendary ones. These materials could fetch hundreds of millions if sold! Was he really giving them away just like that? "Thank you, Pharmacist Lin." "Don’t mention it," Pharmacist Lin replied with a hearty laugh. Seeing this, Chen Mo was certain there was something unusual about this formula. Not the content, but the formula’s value itself! However, since no one was publicly selling this item online, Chen Mo wasn’t too concerned. Regardless of the formula’s value, the value of the Ten-Thousand Spirit Medicine was concrete. What Chen Mo was most intrigued about now was something else. If he didn’t refine the Ten-Thousand Spirit Medicine through conventional means, but instead used the formula to fuse the materials directly... would the Ten-Thousand Spirit Medicine produced this way still be subject to the restriction that each person could only craft ten doses? If the Ten-Thousand Spirit Medicine he synthesized wasn’t subject to this restriction... then he would make a fortune! He immediately stowed everything, preparing to try it out later. As Chen Mo stepped down from the stage, Liu Yiming hurried over and said, "Brother Mo, I didn’t expect you to actually know a four-star Pharmacist! We don’t have any four-star Pharmacists in Jiangnan Province, do we?" "Well, it’s an old friend of my parents."
