“Not a chance.” Saachi gave him a sidelong glance.
The Acme Herbs were extremely rare and precious. Moreover, Saachi had spent a huge effort transferring most of these herbs in the herb garden from the Aeternus District before they had fled from there. They could not afford to give away the herbs carelessly, especially to a relatively unknown man.
“Fine. Forget what I just said.”
James thought, ‘I donʼt really need these high-grade herbs yet since I havenʼt begun developing my new bloodline power. Also, it’ll take quite some time for me to train and improve the new bloodline power in the beginning. I wonʼt need herbs of the Acme grade for that stage.’
As James walked away in a carefree manner, Saachi stood there and stared at the manʼs receding figure.
A few seconds later, Leif materialized beside her.
Saachi instructed, “Keep a close watch on James. He’s eyeing the herbs in this garden. Also, reinforce the formation around the herb garden.”
“Understood.” Leif nodded and left to carry out her orders.
Meanwhile, James visited several major cities located in the universe.
After going through a series of fierce battles with those back in the Aeternus District, their apothecaries were almost out of medicine and elixirs since there was a huge demand for those items to treat countless wounded civilians and fighters.
Furthermore, the universe sustained severe damage due to the war to the point where it had not been able to recover the energies of heaven and earth. People could hardly find any rare, high-grade herbs in the wild. Even low-grade herbs were very scarce.
To his disappointment, James could only find low-grade herbs or elixirs at the apothecaries he visited. Eventually, he decided to visit other nearby planets to look for the herbs he needed.
