Chapter 445 - "Seize Them"
As a potion maniac, how could Harry let these potions go without experimenting with it?
And since he's sure that even the headquarters had never produced such potions…
If the Roane branch Alchemist Guild could monopolise the potion, wouldn't the headquarters allow them to hold an auction in the region?
That means the Roane branch guild's status would rise significantly in the alchemist society!
When Harry thought about this, his eyes turned slightly green. He didn't show anything on his face, but his heart was beating fast as he cleared his throat.
"Lady Sloan, we can't determine the potion's type and its effect. If you want to get licenses for these potions, you have to leave the potions to us so that we can test their authenticity."
When Harry said this, he glanced at the five alchemists behind him and nodded.
The five alchemists were young, but they're not idiots.
Having mingled with the senior alchemists and got to know the alchemist society, they instantly knew what the vice head wanted to do.
The vice head wanted those potions!
What to do?
Seize them!
The five alchemists started to move in silence. One of them went to the door and stood in front of it.
At the same time, he contacted the other combat alchemists outside of the room to block the alchemist guild's entrance or exit.
In no time, they even sealed off the alchemist guild's second floor.
The other four combat alchemists went to stand by Harry's side, two on each side.
Ainsley and the group were still in the dark about the conspiracy. However, when Harry said that Ainsley had to leave the potions behind for testing, the baby furrowed her eyebrows.
"I think...there's no such protocol here in the guild?"
"Ah, leaving behind the potions for testing? That's common practice, you know. Maybe because you're not an alchemist you don't know about this…"
Harry laughed while lying without batting an eyelid.
"It's already common to leave behind unidentified potions that the client want to sell to the market since we have to test the potion first– "
Harry had just about to convince Ainsley when the baby cut his speech.
"I read the guidelines and rules of your guild, and it's stated that an unidentified potion will require a senior alchemist from the headquarter to test it."
Ainsley crossed her legs and spoke in a menacing tone.
"And it will be tested right in front of the client's eyes."
"What? Where did you read that– "
Ainsley immediately interjected once more before Harry could even finish.
"Especially when the potion is suspected to be a super rare or unique one. The tester shall not use the sample potion no matter what the reasons!"
In other words, the tester should be someone who knew about the potion's identity, and from the colour or the smell alone, they could determine its authenticity.
Often, when the headquarters produced an unknown new potion with a new effect, they would use one drop of the potion to test the effect, but that's it.
There's no way they would force the client to leave behind all the potion samples.
Ainsley had done her homework right before going to the alchemist guild.
If Harry thought that she's ignorant because she's not an alchemist...he clearly didn't know about Gaggle…
You could access tons of information on the internet, you boomer!
"I can't leave the sample potions behind. If Mister Harry insists on wanting the sample to test the authenticity, I shall leave behind a drop of each type."
Ainsley took out 6 other bottles from her necklace but these bottles were only as big as her pinky. They indeed only had one drop of each type!
With a swift movement, Ainsley put down the 6 tiny bottles on the table while the 6 big bottles disappeared into her necklace.
Ainsley's movement was so fast that Harry was in a daze for a few seconds before he snapped out of it.
"What– what are you doing? Giving us only a drop of each type? Do you think we can test your potion's authenticity with that alone?!"
Harry's face flushed red as he abruptly stood up. The middle-aged man even pointed his fingers at Ainsley and started to talk nonsense.
"You clearly know nothing about how we work!"
"What the– " Ainsley was about to rebuke when Harry cut her off.
"I don't know where you read about such rules and guidelines, but as a true-blue alchemist, I told you that we need a whole bottle to test the potion's authenticity."
Harry snorted as he looked at Ainsley as if she's a worm.
"Either you leave the potions behind for testing or let go of the license. We won't give you the license to sell the products!"
Oh, in the first place, he didn't have the authority to give an auction license to sell these rare potions.
The matter had to be reported to the headquarters since they would be the ones deciding the case.
However, the Roane Alchemist Guild master instructed Harry to make things difficult for Ainsley, no matter what the reasons.
Why would they need to report things to the headquarters? No, no need!
When Ainsley heard that Harry refused to grant her the auction license of her potions because she wouldn't leave the whole bottles behind, the baby sighed and slowly stood up.
"Okay, then, goodbye. I don't need the license granted by your branch guild." Ainsley looked at Harry and snorted.
"I'll just ask the headquarters!"
Once Ainsley's voice dropped, Harry's face darkened. He instantly lifted his hands and ordered the combat alchemists.
"Seize them."
The middle-aged man swept his cold gaze over Ainsley, Elliana, and the five buds.
"Don't let them leave!"
