1200 Chapter 1200
"Today is the Earl's party, don't be rude. ”
The last words came from the carriage, and the elegant lady walked gently down the white-gloved hand of the waiter, and a red carpet stretched out from under her feet, ensuring that her satin shoes covered with jeweled lace were not stained with a trace of dust.
"Mother, don't worry, I'm not a child anymore. ”
The young lady with a pleasant voice like a yellow warbler smiled in response, followed by the noblewoman, and walked out of the carriage, her fair skin became more and more charming in the moonlight, and the slightly curly blonde hair, partly pinned by pearl hairpins, partly hung down naturally, and a strand was bent in the ear, just encircling the radiant earrings, playful and lovely.
A small badge pinned to the neckline is a scale, and at one end are placed three small weights, which is the symbol of the alchemist San Ji.
The lady turned around, saw the inappropriate badge on her body, took a deep breath, and finally held back the words in her heart.
There can be no disgrace, there can be no disgrace here.
Sensing the gaze around her, she regained an indifferent smile on her face, and slowly walked across the carpet into the hall amid the waiter's roll call.
The young lady also maintained an elegant and dignified posture, walking slowly, she was still young, even if she tried to suppress her pace, every step was as if she was about to fly, there was a kind of dynamic beauty.
Many of the guests who had arrived, men and women, had taken a second look, and some had already covered their mouths with fans and whispered, they knew the story of this one, the young lady who was obsessed with alchemy, and she had the most appropriate nickname - Miss Alchemy.
"What have you been busy with lately, do you have any new works?"
A girl smiled and beckoned Miss Alchemy, asking about her new work, she didn't want to know at all how any potions or weapons were made, in the dimly lit laboratory, in the choking smoke, or in the bloody experiments filled with evil feelings, what she wanted to know was whether this person would have the smell of alchemy that could not be faded.
The faint floral scent comes from the nocturnal flowers, which are too numerous and too small to be nameless, but the smell is still very good, and among the many strong perfume scents, this one is more intriguing.
"Of course, I've recently researched an alchemy program, and I've been able to make something very interesting...," Miss Alchemy said happily, and her happiness only lasted for half a sentence, and soon other young ladies came to say hello, and then laughed and walked away with the young lady who had greeted her at the beginning.
She could vaguely hear two sentences, "Who likes those stinky things...", "She really thinks of herself as an alchemist!"
Obviously, these aristocratic ladies are not really interested in alchemy, yes, when they are in the laboratory, they can't wear those more beautiful dresses, they can't make the lace on the cuffs more flowing, and the taste of some materials in the laboratory is not always so pleasant, but...
"Actually, alchemy is a very interesting thing. ”
She muttered, this sentence, only she heard herself, the lady who brought her had already greeted her acquaintance at this time, the other party was a young and handsome man, I don't know what kind of relationship it was, they talked happily, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Through alchemy, I was really able to do a lot of things. ”
Miss Alchemy looked at the banquet hall that was gradually becoming lively, the crystal lamp was shining overhead, and the men and women holding wine glasses below were smiling, no one paid attention to Miss Alchemy who was still near the door, even a few who saw her would immediately avoid her gaze and turn their heads and ears, and the glances cast from time to time were playful and teasing.
The status of the alchemist is very high, but it is nothing in front of these real nobles, even if many children of the nobles will go to learn alchemy, but few of them are really proud of it, especially when they are low-level, they are ashamed to wear the badge that marks the identity of the alchemist.
Taking pride in this is obviously a very alternative and non-mainstream approach.
Miss Alchemy had long been accustomed to their strange eyes, but at this moment, she was still silent, and silently raised her feet and went to the garden, she knew that there was a fountain in the garden, and in the pool below, there was a mermaid.
When the mermaid was very popular, the Count held several parties because of this mermaid, but now, it is not new.
"Behold, you and I are forgotten. ”
When she chose to study alchemy at the beginning, she was hindered by her family, and she couldn't even go to school, and she almost fell out with them when she insisted on studying, and the relationship was very bad in the past few years, but she didn't regret it.
The mermaid in the pool is not very beautiful, but the skin is very fair, under the background of the water waves, as if it can reflect the light, her upper body has a layer of tulle entangled, from the waist and abdomen down, you can see the blue fish tail, the gradient color is very beautiful, in the moonlight, she seems to be able to listen to human language, with clear eyes to look at Miss Alchemy.
Miss Alchemy stood by the pool, she didn't rush to this mermaid, even if it should have been domesticated and well-behaved enough, but, the sea beast is still a monster, and if it is a monster, it will always hurt people, so it's good to be careful.
"I just made this for you, it can release a protective magic, which is very useful. ”
Miss Alchemy still remembers the appearance of this weak mermaid being held in the arms of others and powerless to resist, she has only seen it once, which makes her remember it vividly when she was still young, and now that she thinks about it, she thinks it is a terrible thing.
They dress her up, they like her, they... Forget her.
- I don't know what Miss Mermaid prefers.
The bracelet that had been thrown was caught, and Miss Mermaid took it awkwardly with her hand, and looked and looked, repeatedly leaning at the tip of her nose, as if she did not understand what it was for, and her eyes were full of curiosity and innocence.
Miss Alchemy hesitated for a moment, but stepped forward, ready to take the bracelet and bring it to Miss Mermaid, so as not to waste a good thing.
Seeing her approaching, Miss Mermaid seemed to be very happy, with a smile on her face, her slightly sharp little teeth showed a little, very cute, her blue tail slapped in the pool water, making the water rattle, she seemed to like such closeness, and it seemed that she had not been so close to someone for a long time, and she was a little excited.
The next moment, the world was spinning.
When she was pulled into the pool water, Miss Alchemy was blindfolded, she choked on several mouthfuls of water unprepared, and the next moment she felt the pain in her body, Miss Mermaid was immersed in the water, and her face seemed to look even better in the water.
Faintly, there seemed to be a voice saying "food", "food", "hungry", "eating", and the unclear sound seemed to be the phantom sound left by the flow of water in the cochlea.
Miss Alchemy released the protective magic on the bracelet before her neck was bitten off, and at the same time seized the time to quickly climb up the moment when the mermaid was bounced off by the protective magic.
They were at the edge of the pool, it was a pool that was not too deep, Miss Alchemy choked on the water, dragging the heavy skirt because of the soaked pool water and climbed up, the process was repeated several times, the mermaid always wanted to drag her down, in the water, the mermaid's strength seemed to be greater, which made Miss Alchemy have to use the small bi shou she carried with her.
The little bi shou she always carries, the role of self-defense is really just by the way, but it is sharp enough, and when she strokes back, she can feel that something has been stabbed.
The faint color of blood quickly dissolved in the water, and Miss Alchemy climbed up and walked a few more steps into the distance, before she caressed the bitten flesh at her collarbone and looked back in embarrassment.
In the pond, the mermaid with the blue fish tail is still so young and innocent, flicking her tail and looking in her direction, her eyes still have some expectation.
The night breeze blew, and she shivered, and it was cold.
"It's rude, it's rude. ”
In the common room, the noble lady went back and forth, repeating the sentence as if she couldn't say anything else, her red lips kept opening and closing, and the alchemy lady who sat in front of her with a blanket still had some dripping hair, and she wrapped the blanket tightly, not knowing how to defend herself.
"I'm sorry, ma'am, but it was an accident. ”
There was a knock on the door, and the door opened with a kind and slightly apologetic smile from the housekeeper, he did a good job in handling the matter, and the reason why it happened was very clear, in order to be busy with this party, the people in the manor neglected to feed the mermaid, and as a result, such an accident happened, and no one wanted to see the accident.
"What's the solution? Warcraft are always like that, and you can't be blamed for that. The lady was so polite and kind in front of outsiders that she easily forgave them for their negligence and apologized for disturbing the party.
Miss Alchemy changed into a new dress, and when she left with the noblewoman, her mood was much calmer, and she apologized to her mother: "I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention to it." ”
No matter how much she looks like a human, it is not a human being, but a beast, and she is careless.
Miss Alchemy's alchemy talent is very ordinary, but she still found a teacher to study seriously, her teacher is from a civilian background, has a good temper, and was already a sixth-level alchemist when she taught her, and she was very respected.
The teacher is not negligent because she is a woman, many places will be carefully explained, and some requirements will be extraordinarily strict, she trusts her teacher very much, until one day she finds out that the teacher is doing human alchemy, she can't violate her conscience, and denounces the teacher's behavior.
"I'm sorry, teacher, but you were wrong to do this. Miss Alchemy said very seriously.
The teacher laughed, as if he was laughing at her innocence, and seemed to be laughing at the trust he had given, "There is nothing wrong with alchemy, what is wrong is taboo." ”
Many years later, when the mermaid craze arose again, when Miss Alchemy associated the missing girl with the mermaid, she was shocked and thought of the mermaid she had seen, the mermaid that had no humanity.
The reason why a taboo is a taboo is because what is closed behind the door is uncontrollable and needs a lock, locked tightly.
The author has something to say: there are some things tomorrow that may not be able to be updated on time, if I can save the manuscript today, just when I don't say anything now, if not, wait for me to make up for it the day after tomorrow!
