PROJECT HEAVENSTORM Book One of the Elixir Trilogy
Twenty-one thousand years ago, it nearly destroyed the world.
One man wants to bring it back.
On the distant world of Haloken, the line between science and magic has long since blurred. Humans and Dragons have mostly forgotten their differences and live side by side. Godlike titans roam the seas, observing all, rarely intervening.
Tonight, all this could come to an end.
A psychically powerful fanatic and his private army of trained killers have invaded an isolated island college. They hold staff and students hostage, demanding the nations of the world hand over its most powerful and ancient secret – the Elixir.
Only a small band of Human and Dragon students stand between the forces of evil and global cataclysm.
And where the Elixir is concerned, even the gods must tread carefully.
How many Heisenbergs would you need to make one Smaug?
In the episode of Breaking Bad entitled "Ozymandias" (aka The Greatest Fifty Minutes in Television History), it was revealed that Walter White's buried stash of drug money amounted to US $80 million.

On the Forbes website for their annual "Fictional 15" list, it was estimated that the hoard of Smaug the Dragon (from JRR Tolkien's The Hobbit) amounted to US $62 billion dollars.

Divide 62 billion by 80 million, and you get 775. So Smaug is 775 times as wealthy as Walter White.
I don't recall any mention of blue crystals in Smaug's hoard
