Chapter 41: The Promotion of the Brother and Sister
Chris remembered Bert and Bonnie's choice, and nodded approvingly.
"So will there be a lot of gatherings of such wild extraordinaires?"
Oliver shook his head and said:
"Potion recipes are easy to fake, and ordinary low-sequence extraordinaries who don't have divination abilities can't tell at all. Therefore, for most extraordinary people, even if there is a formula, they dare not buy it. After all, once the recipe is wrong, there is a danger of getting out of control. ”
"Is it because of the appraiser, Mr. Gabriel?"
"Yes, unless the owner of the party or a member of the party has the ability to distinguish between the authenticity of the potion recipe and has a good reputation in the circle, it will be difficult for the participants to be convinced of the authenticity of the recipe and materials, and it will be difficult for the transaction to proceed. ”
"Is that Mr. Gabriel's ability to finger that green gemstone ring? I see that he has been using that ring to identify extraordinary objects, and it is a magical object?"
Oliver gently touched the gray beard on his chin and laughed:
"It's a magical artifact, but it doesn't have the ability to identify it. If I'm guessing correctly, the ability to identify extraordinary objects should be that of Gabriel itself. That is, he is just covering up his extraordinary path with a magical item. ”
"In this way, the way to hide yourself is really cautious. ”
"Extraordinary people like us who can live to our age are not unscrupulous. Haha, if it weren't for the ring that I happened to see when I was younger, I would have been blindfolded by him. ”
"Teacher, have you ever seen a ring with an identification effect?"
"Yes, it's from the Church of the God of Steam and Machines Seal 2-081......
"It was an intricate, delicate ring with a green gem like an eye in the center. Upon touching the potion recipe and extraordinary materials, the emerald on the ring bloomed a brilliant golden color, eventually evolving into a seal-like projection.
"This ring has a strong negative effect, so it needs to be removed immediately before and after use. Gabriel didn't do that at the time, and the extraordinary vision when using it was not consistent, and there were no other magical items at that time, so it could only be his own extraordinary ability.
"If you're not mistaken, he's supposed to be a 'Sun Priest'. ”
"'Sun Priest'?"
"Yes, the sequence 6 of the 'Qiguang People' pathway, 'Sun Priest'. ”
"Mr. Gabriel is already an Intermediate Rank Extraordinary, so how could he take the initiative to hold such a gathering of Low Rank Extraordinary?"
"I guess I'm looking for something extraordinary. Or, there's a guess ......"
Looking at the confused Chris, Oliver repeated:
"He is the 'Qiguang people' sequence pathway, and the 'Qiguang people' path is also called the 'sun' pathway. ”
When Chris heard the prompt, he was a little shocked, so much so that he stammered a little:
"You...... You mean, he ...... Mr. Gabriel is the official Extraordinaire of the Constant Light Sun Church!"
"It's just that it's possible, but you don't have to worry too much, after all, we're all disguised. ”
Oliver has a sentence that he hasn't finished, even if his true identity is known, it's nothing. After all, he and the archbishop of the two major churches in Federenburg are also old acquaintances.
"If Mr. Gabriel is really a member of the Church, is this done in order to better supervise the wild extraordinaries of Federenburg?" Chris guessed.
Looking at the smiling Oliver, Chris had to reluctantly put down his newly suspended heart.
Not long after the words fell, Buck drove the carriage to 63 Leveur Street in the South Side.
After accompanying the teacher into the room, Chris returned the mask to Buck, greeted the teacher, and drove to the public school on the West Side.
Because it was only four o'clock, Chris passed by the market to buy fresh veal steaks, and finally waited at the school gate for half an hour bored.
When I was leaving, the teacher explained, let me figure out more tricks about the acting method, and try to master the acting method as quickly as possible, so as to digest the magic potion of the "scholar".
Today's dinner, Chris carefully grilled a delicious black pepper veal steak, and today there is news of the colorful spider in the main ingredient of the four flavors, I believe that it will not be long before there will be news of the horn of an adult unicorn pegasus, the venom crystals of the crown jellyfish, and the mature wolf venom aconite.
For the next few weeks, there was one of these gatherings almost every two weeks, and each time Oliver brought Chris to it. Some of the organizers are Gabriel, and some are other extraordinary beings, all of whom have in common the characteristics of prestige and fame, and have magical objects that can confirm the true and the fake.
Sometimes these gatherings are rewarding, more often than not, because out of an abundance of caution, Oliver only posts one or two purchase requests for master materials at a time at the gathering, which are still mixed together.
Finally, in the space of nearly a month, it took nearly 500 gold pounds to finally collect all the main materials of the four flavors, and the remaining auxiliary materials, Oliver's home has ready-made, a total of 600 gold pounds, which perfectly deducts the value savings of Chris's three potion formulas from the teacher.
Nov. 13, Sunday at 9 a.m.
After more than a month, Chris took Bert and Bonnie to 63 Le Fold Street again.
Today, all three of them were dressed more formally, with Chris and Bert wearing white shirts, black vests, and black suits, and crisp black trousers and leather shoes, with top hats and black bows tied over their stand-up collar shirts.
And Bonnie wore a green ruffle skirt with a corset and skirt support, the ruffles matched the cut of the round skirt, and the green lace spread softly and fluttering throughout the shoulders and chest. He wears long blonde hair and a green wide-brimmed hat decorated with artificial flowers.
They dress so formally, not only because they are nervous, it's a sense of ritual. It is also because of the success of this day that determines their future lives and fate.
After all, Oliver told Bert and Bonnie through Chris yesterday that the few seconds of drinking the potion had a lot of runaway efficiency, and whether they could successfully survive it depended on their own perseverance.
It was still the servant Buck who opened the door, and after walking through the garden, the three of them looked at each other, and Bert and Bonnie exhaled and exchanged cheering glances before stepping through the door.
Oliver was already waiting for them on the sofa reading the newspaper, dressed in comfortable loungewear, looking at the formal attire of the three, and smiled:
"Three decent gentlemen and young ladies have arrived. Buck, serve some drinks to the three children, warm up and warm up. ”
Immediately, Buck went to the kitchen and brought a cup of Aris black tea and two cups of sweetened and unsweetened São Paulo coffee.
After watching the three of them finish their hot drinks, Oliver looked at Bert and Bonnie with blue eyes and asked:
"Well, are you ready to be extraordinary? once you embark on this dangerous and strange path, there is no turning back. ”
Bert looked at his sister and nodded, "Dear Mr. Hill, I'm ready." ”
Bonnie looked at her brother, then at Chris, who was cheering herself up, then at Oliver and said, "Professor, I'm ready too." ”
"That's good. Oliver looked at the brother and sister with determined eyes, beckoned to Buck, and the servant cleared the table, went outside, and closed the door.
Oliver led the three to the basement.
I saw that it was not a large laboratory with all kinds of precision instruments and extraordinary materials, as other people did, but a large laboratory with all kinds of precision instruments and extraordinary materials.
On one of the marble tables, Bert and Bonnie's potions were placed separately.
"I'll mix potions for you this time, you have to take a good look at it, and next time you will have to mix it yourself. ”
Oliver pointed to the extraordinary material on the table and said:
"Every time you mix potions, you have to check them carefully, and the amount is 1 gram, and you can't increase or decrease them at will, otherwise it is easy for the potions to get out of control. As for the unmarked components, more attention is paid to their completeness. ”
Chris pulled Bonnie and Bert over to the marble table, looking at the main and auxiliary materials on it, the main materials Chris had seen, and the auxiliary materials were the first time he had seen them.
