457 Things to Do
Ren's beginner-level [Life Skills] were troublesome since they would prevent him from crafting rare items and Artifact equipment.
He needed all his [Life Skills] related to Alchemy to be at the maximum [Grand Master] level to be able to craft legendary equipment and items.
This was another point that he needed to address. Actually, the very first point he needed to address in his Alchemic journey.
Ren listed on his side notes the things he needed to do. It also helped to organize his thoughts since he had trouble doing so with all the information in his brain.
First things first, he needed to upgrade all his [Life Skills] to [Grand Master] ASAP. The sooner he crafted artifacts, the better. He didn't have time to waste practicing his skills until it reached the [Grand Master] Level. That would take months in real-time!
His best bet was to kill High Gods and acquire there [God's Fruits] that could raise the [Life Skill] level to one.
However, the amount of these fruits he would acquire depended on his LCK. Six to ten at the maximum if his LCK was high. One or five at the lowest.
Ren needed at least fifty [God's Fruits] if he wanted to increase all his [Life Skills] related to Alchemy to the maximum [Grand Master] Level.
Ren recalled the High Gods that he knew in COVENANT. These gods weren't like the normal gods in The Great Valley that the Orcs revered.
These High Gods were hidden like Hidden Boos and had a stat like a mini World Boss, and once killed, they would no longer respawn.
Unlike with the other bosses, these High Gods didn't yield chests when killed. Instead, they give rare items, materials, and equipment in their position. From fangs, claws, scales, hide, fur, and mana core to horns. And amongst the rewards was, of course, the [God's Fruits].
They were the perfect creatures to kill if Ren wanted to have rare materials for his Alchemy.
In his notes, Ren listed the High Gods that he knew and knew how to trigger.
There was, Anansi, Baba Yaga, Batara Kala, Fuji, Hekate, Inti, Mazu, Saraswati, Shango, Shiva, Tchernoborg, Tengri, Turan.
Anansi, Inti, and Turan were located in the forest of the Elven and Fey Realm.
Baba Yaga and Shiva were located in the cold north in the Dwarven Lands.
Batara Kala, Hekate, and Tchernoborg were located in the Demon Realm.
Fuji was located in The Great Valley's Volcanos in the land of the Orcs.
Mazu was located in the sea in the Sea creatures' domain.
Saraswati and Shango were in the desert lands with the land of Kobolds, Halflings, and Tieflings.
Tengri was the hardest to reach for it roams the sky.
Ren needed to be on a flying beast or Airship and roam the sky for days to stumble upon this god.
There were also other Gods like Thor, Athena, Oraborion, Dromagdon, Quintera, Frostecton, and soon. But Ren didn't know their locations or how to trigger them.
It wasn't that hard to trigger these High Gods if he had to be honest. Most would actually show themselves when players least expected it. But of course, it was a matter if they could defeat it or not.
Most of these Gods were located in the areas that Ren would eventually explore, so he might as well defeat these Gods while he was in the area to save time.
The second thing he needed to do was get the Cauldron from the Old Hag in the Great Valley. That part was easy enough. And the Cauldron was upgradable, so he wouldn't have to replace the Cauldron too often.
The third Ren needed to do was to get those Recipes of all available items and equipment. He didn't have the luxury of time to experiment with things and waste precious materials just to acquire items and equipment.
The recipes would greatly help him in his path of Alchemy, and he knew of one place in where he could acquire all the recipes in COVENANT.
In the lair of Vanadon-Necroth, the keeper of the [Tome of the Dead]. The souls of many Alchemists were recorded in there and, with it, their knowledge as well. What he needed was that knowledge.
The only problem was, Vanadon-Necroth was located in the Demon Realm.
Ren needed to do that World Quest in the Fey Realm first before the Demon Realm would open. To do that, he needed to find the [Queen Fairies Tomb] first and get that key to open the portal to the [Fey Realm]. And all of this he needed to do within a week period in real-time. If he could do it much lesser time then the better.
No matter. Ren was planning to do that World Quest [Fey Realm] anyway. He needed the entrance fee money for those who wanted to come into the Fey Realm and be the first to explore and defeat another [World Boss].
Fourth, he needed [Tools] for Alchemy and [Foraging] all in [Platinum] Level. And the best way to do that was to craft it using Alchemy itself.
When Ren has all the recipes, then it wouldn't be a problem. It was easier to craft it than do its related quest.
And last, Ren needed a space to craft his items and equipment. There was an area in World Conqueror for that, so there wouldn't be any problem in that department.
Yosh.
When Ren was sure that everything was in order, he proceeded to popularize the [Pelka Meat] first.
It was the easiest and top priority on his to-do list.
Ren then proceeded to enter Erendia Town in the land of the Elves.
Compared to the much more conservative Elven Towns located inside Maze Forest, this town served as a convergent city for all races.
It was the center of trade and tourism in the land of the Elves.
This town had a pleasant atmosphere throughout, with lots of beautiful architecture. Green curved tile roofs over curvy limestone walls, round windows, and arch doors. The cobblestones were in different pastel colors, and there were colorful trees and flowers all throughout the city. It was like a setting in a fairy tale and a scene straight out of picture books.
And since all races were converging in this spot, plenty of high-end restaurants were found in here that served different dishes coming from all around ARCADIA.
