This was a huge hall of four to five hundred square meters. At one end of the hall, there was a small stage with a piano placed on it. A beautiful pianist was playing soothing music.
At the other end of the hall was a huge bar counter. Not only did it provide all kinds of alcohol, beverages, coffee, and exquisite snacks, but it also provided a variety of drinks.
In front of the bar, there were some semi-closed booths. This was the place where the members of the salon could rest, relax, and replenish their energy.
On the opposite side of the hall, there were several doors that led to a wide balcony. Below the balcony was the back of the club building, where there was a large garden. This garden also belonged to the club. Some members would hold their salon in the garden when the weather was good.
In the middle of the hall, five or six groups of sofas formed a few semicircles, and these semicircles together formed a larger circle. This design allowed the participants of the salon to be divided into small groups to chat, and also to participate in common topics.
This kind of gathering hall could be divided into at least three small gathering halls on the lower level.
When Feng Chou walked into the gathering hall, there were only a few people, including the one who invited Feng Chou, Baron Miller.
These few people surrounded an old man sitting on the sofa in the middle.
Feng Chou recognized at a glance that this old man was Earl Patrick.
In the Holy Golden Dragon's special perception, the old man's vampire aura was as clear and cold as the full moon.
But when Feng Chou blocked the Holy Golden Dragon's special perception, the old man in front of him couldn't be more ordinary.
Feng Chou had experimented on Melissa and Amanda. Even with the Secret Vision, he couldn't see through their disguises. Only when he used his innate spell as a Gold Dragon Warlock, "True Eye", could he see through their disguises.
True Eye was originally a 6th Tier Spell, but True Dragons were born with this kind of innate talent, so True Eye was only a 5th Tier Spell in the spell list of Dragon Bloodline Warlocks.
The Golden Dragon's perception told Feng Chou that this was a Level 20 Half-Legend Vampire. And judging from Qiankun Pagoda's powerful spiritual force, he should be a Level 16 spellcaster!
Feng Chou wasn't afraid that the other party would discover his golden dragon bloodline. The Holy Golden Dragon was one of the natural enemies of undead creatures. It had the innate ability to be immune to the perception of undead creatures. As long as Feng Chou didn't take the initiative to reveal his dragon's aura, even a Half-Legend Vampire Marquis wouldn't be able to discover his golden dragon bloodline.
Feng Chou had a premonition that Earl Patrick would summon him, because during this time, Melissa and her daughter had more or less "figured out" his background.
Naturally, it was time for the person behind the scenes to make a move.
Feng Chou's arrival immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall. Baron Millet greeted him with a smile.
After the two exchanged greetings, Baron Millet brought Feng Chou to the old man. He introduced the old man to Feng Chou. "Your Excellency Amberite, this is Earl Patrick, one of the best alchemy merchants in the New Port District. In the New Port District's mid-level magic equipment market, the products produced by the Earl's alchemy factory occupy the third largest market share.
He is also one of the directors of our Alchemy Club. "
From Baron Millet's introduction, Feng Chou noticed that he didn't mention the title of Great Wizard. Obviously, this vampire noble didn't dare to use his blood energy at will.
Feng Chou took off his hat and bowed. This was the etiquette of a lower noble meeting a higher noble. If they were nobles of the same rank, they would only need to take off their hats or shake hands, which had become popular in recent years.
Earl Patrick smiled and said, "I heard from Millet that an alchemy merchant from Casablanca will be shipping a large batch of low-level magic equipment. Coincidentally, I just received a large batch of low-level magic equipment, but as you know, my alchemy factory is not good at producing low-level magic equipment, so I hope you can sell this batch of goods to me."
Baron Millet complimented in a timely manner, "Who doesn't know that your alchemy factory is full of mid-level alchemists and above? Of course, they are 'not good' at producing low-level alchemy equipment."
Hearing this, Feng Chou's heart skipped a beat.
He had long speculated that this vampire noble alchemy merchant might have controlled a batch of alchemists and turned them into vampire derivatives to make money for himself. Vampire derivatives were at least level-five creatures, but they couldn't reach level-eleven. Otherwise, they would grow into official vampire nobles and get rid of the master's control.
It was probably because of this that this vampire noble's alchemy factory was famous for producing mid-level magic equipment.
Thinking this, Feng Chou didn't show anything on his face. He said in a flattered and slightly excited tone, "It's my honor to serve you."
Earl Patrick nodded in satisfaction and asked, "Mr. Baron, how many low-level magic equipment will you be shipping this time? What are the main types?"
Feng Chou said: "There are a total of more than four thousand magic equipment, mainly weapons and armor. The weapons are mainly the best-selling two-handed swords, one-handed swords, light and medium shields, while the armor is mainly the best-selling medium armor."
Hearing Feng Chou's words, everyone present sucked in a breath of cold air.
Ever since the Arcane Empire, the arcanists had separated Pharmaceutics from Alchemy as a separate discipline.
Alchemy was specifically the production of magic equipment.
There were many types of magic equipment, but they could be roughly divided into two categories. One was ordinary alchemy equipment, and the other was alchemy equipment like weapons and armors.
The difference between the two was that ordinary alchemy equipment didn't have any requirements on the strength of the body. Naturally, one could choose any material with better magic conductivity to make it.
However, the same couldn't be said for alchemy items such as weapons and armors. For weapons and armors, the hardness of the basic materials was extremely important. This led to alchemists having to deal with metals that had extremely strong interference with mental strength, such as black steel, in order to refine such alchemy items.
It was also because of this disruption that mages couldn't wear ordinary metal armors.
Making magic equipment was an extremely delicate process that couldn't be disturbed at all. Therefore, directly using ordinary alchemy methods to enchant metal armors was almost an impossible task.
However, the enchantment of weapons and armors was extremely important. Therefore, alchemists invented the "indirect enchantment" that used spells to control spells.
Professional metal enchanters had two special enchantment tools. One was a magic probe that could replace spiritual power detection. Through this probe, metal enchanters could sense whether the magic lines they drew were correct or not without spiritual power detection. The other was a special metal enchanter pen. This pen could replace the spiritual power of metal enchanters and give magic activity to the engraved magic circuit. With this magic activity, the magic circuit could be activated.
