Chapter 13 Solicitation of Intent

"Surprised, save you old fellow from bragging in front of me all day. Merlin laughed.

The same people are not qualitative, and Old Hall is also a first-level apprentice, and his qualifications are not very good, so he can't take a step further. But there are some connections in the family, and the back office is mixed with the work of managing the scrap warehouse. Although the oil and water are not big, there is a job in the work, and the life is not much worse.

Unlike the one who gave out the benefits, Old Hall was quite popular, and every time Mei Lin came over to get the scrap potion, she didn't feel sorry for her, but she usually liked to brag when she drank, bragging about how she was promoted to a first-level apprentice...... If you listen to it too much, it will be a joke.

Old Hall rolled his eyes: "I brag, you only got promoted to the next level in four years, and you may not be farther than me in the future." ”

"You know what? I'm a late bloomer. ”

Mei Lin was not angry, and said with a smile: "Old Hall, get me a batch of scrap potions...... By the way, this time it's all about concentrating potions. ”

"It's all waste, why do you need all concentrating potions?" asked Old Hall with some confusion.

"Of course it's different. The difference between the medicine is that the medicinal materials also have different properties...... Forget it, you don't know how to plant. ”

Merlin waved her hand, disdainful of the other party's faint stance, so angry that Old Hall blew his beard and glared, but he was helpless against her.

Eventually, Merlin left with a large packet of conciliatory elixirs.

Any kind of medicine will be used for a long time, the human body will develop resistance, and Merlin does not plan to purify these drugs for her own use, but is ready to sell. Of course, the refining of the condensation potion is still very difficult, and Merlin will not sell it now, so as not to arouse Hull's suspicion.

……

Time passed very quickly, and before I knew it, it was already half a year later.

On the cyan stone paved path, Merlin was walking with her head down, a contemplative expression on her face.

Compared with half a year ago, Mei Lin's height has jumped out significantly, and her complexion is a little fair...... But not that sickly pale, but because of the scarcity of sunlight, which added a bit of charm to her.

"Half a year has passed so quickly, and if there is a mentor by my side, I am afraid I don't have to think about leaving here all the time. Merlin looked up at the main building of the academy with mixed feelings.

Under normal circumstances, the academy should have signed a formal apprenticeship contract with her immediately after she was promoted, and then it was to find a mentor, but it had been half a year, and there had been no movement.

In the past six months, in addition to meditating and refining potions, and completing the work of the medicine garden, she spent most of her time learning those who needed to pay to learn...... "Principles of Elixir", "Alchemy Magic Array", "Basic Analysis of Golems", "Principles of Spell Model Construction", "Gulliver's Travels to the Continent", "Geography of Water and Clouds", etc.

In the past six months, a lot of things have happened in the academy, for example, in an experiment a month ago, the right side of her face was disfigured, looking like a demon, and she was nicknamed 'Half-Faced Rakshasa', and she has been dumped by Phile.

With the full support of his family, Phil has reached the peak of the third-order apprentice, and he is just one step away from breaking through the bottleneck and becoming a full-fledged wizard...... Of course, at this point, it is not only a matter of resource support, but also personal qualifications and acquired efforts. After being strictly supervised by the family, Phila was much more honest, and he was bored in his cultivation, and he couldn't take care of Mei Lin's side for the time being.

When Qianyu told Mei Lin the news, she looked relieved, but Mei Lin couldn't relax - in case that guy really broke through to become an official wizard, it would be a matter of minutes to crush himself, and the delay in signing the contract would probably be caused by them.

In the past six months, Mei Lin has made a large number of physical strength potions, hemostatic agents and other more common and commonly used medicines, at the beginning, the failure rate is still quite amazing, but most of the waste products have been purified into qualified products by her with those mysterious light spots, but her potion level is also improving rapidly, and the magic stones she earned are used by her to buy those classics.

However, what excites her the most is that she will soon be promoted to a second-level apprentice, and at that time, she will be able to practice zero-level spells, which is one step closer to her plan...... To become a first-level apprentice, you must successfully carve eight will runes in the sea of knowledge, and to become a second-level apprentice, you need to carve twenty-four will runes in the sea of knowledge, and as for the third-level apprentice, it seems that other conditions are needed.

In the past six months, I have been deeply touched when I carved the will rune, it is precisely because of the existence of that nebula that Mei Lin's cultivation speed will be so fast, and I don't know what the origin of that treasure is, it is definitely an auxiliary artifact!

In fact, during this time, Merlin also tried to contact other mentors to see if she could become a student of one of them, so that she would not have to worry about the secret arrow from the Feller family, but the result was very unfortunate, no one wanted to offend the Feller family for an apprentice with an uncertain future.

"Forget it, let's go with the original plan. Merlin gritted her teeth, looked at the trading area of the academy in front of her, cheered up, and walked towards the store presided over by Hull.

This time she took the refined potion to deliver it, and the two of them had secretly traded for half a year, only the elders of the Phila family vaguely knew about this matter, and gave some instructions to Hull, anyway, Hull's attitude towards Merlin was more enthusiastic.

"Merlin, you're here early today. ”

Hull, who was wiping the door of the shop, saw Merlin coming, and a smile immediately appeared on his fat face.

"Well, there's nothing to do today, it just so happens that your last goods have been refined, so you can come and check it out. Merlin said indifferently and walked into the store from Hull's side.

"You brought the finished potion?" asked Hull as he immediately threw away the rag and trotted after Merlin, a fat face smiling like a chrysanthemum.

"Here!" Merlin handed a cloth pocket in her sleeve to Hull.

Hull hurriedly walked behind the counter, opened his pocket, and took out ten black potions from inside.

"The color is pure. ”

Hull picked up a potion, first looked at the purity with the eyes outside, then pulled the plug and sniffed it again, with a surprised expression on his face.

He then took out a test tube containing the green potion, dropped a drop into a plate, and then dropped the antidote again, fusing it with the green potion.

Laugh at~

After a soft sound, the two drops of the potion reacted together, and a puff of white smoke rose and a pungent stench filled the air.

"Good quality!"

Hull put away the potions on the table with satisfaction, then took out a bag of magic stones and pushed forward: "You put it away, Merlin, did you consider what I told you last time?"

"I'm afraid not, I have other plans, Hull, thank you. Hull shook his head.

Some time ago, Hull had a whim and proposed to Merlin that with her talent in potions, the family should vigorously cultivate and avoid Phile's harm. But after thinking about it again, Merlin refused.

"It's okay, but be careful. ”

Hull sighed lightly, "Those guys in the academy are really eyeless!"
