Alex brought out the Alchemy God's book that he had kept hidden away a long time ago. The amateurishly leather-bound book was the same as it had been since a long time ago.
The book itself contained little knowledge for an alchemist, merely teaching the basic fundamentals. What it contained within it instead was a puzzle for someone to solve.
And when that puzzle was solved, Alex believed he would get his hands on the secret the Alchemy God was talking about.
"So the secret is in here somewhere," Alex thought. "But I need a keyword or a set of them to decrypt this text. Do I have that already?"
He had tried many other keywords in the past and those had failed. But he had a few more pieces of information now, so he tried out those. The names of the treasures, the location where they were hidden, and the people who they were with—Alex tried everything he could think of, but nothing revealed anything other than gibberish.
