Chapter 20: Crisis

The strategic value of the pharmacist was so high by Principal Roberts, Zhou Ming felt that it was a little exaggerated.

But when you think about it, there is some truth to it.

[Tranquilizer], the effect of the magician's meditation is doubled.

[Dragon's Blood Elixir] to improve the soldier's physique and increase high-end combat power.

It's just that these two drugs have a huge effect, and there is a huge difference between them and those who don't.

Pharmacists are equivalent to a variety of medicines, which can maintain a long-term stable supply and continuously formulate strategic resources such as "medicines".

It is equivalent to installing an acceleration engine for the development of a school or a kingdom.

Both the magic school and the kingdom attach great importance to the training of pharmacists, even more so than regular magicians.

But...... The success rate of pharmacists is too low.

In many powerful kingdoms, the number of high-level magicians exceeded a thousand, but the number of high-level pharmacists was counted on one hand.

As for a grandmaster-level apothecary, the value can really be comparable to that of a kingdom.

Is Zhou Ming sure to become a grandmaster-level pharmacist?

Yes.

With the help of the system, he can become a grandmaster-level figure no matter what he studies.

So did he accept Principal Roberts' offer to stay at the Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?

Shook his head.

No matter what conditions the old fox offers, he will not exchange his free choice for something.

Even in exchange for the king's pardon for his own family.

Zhou Ming was not interested.

"Family, my essence belongs to a 'traverser', how many cents does this body of the family have to do with me?"

Principal Roberts may think that the Leylin family is very important to him, which is a good condition, but for Zhou Ming, he really doesn't care much about the life or death of the Leylin family.

He had never lived in the Leylin family.

I have not received the favor of this family.

Except for the memories of the original owner that were mostly cleared by the system and packaged and stored in the information database, Zhou Ming had nothing to do with the Lei Lin family.

Of course, if he is capable enough, he will be happy to pull this unlucky family.

If someone takes this as a condition and asks him to agree to the other party's request, then he really can't do it.

Zhou Ming has his own affairs, and he has no time to run any magic school and realize other people's dreams.

Nothing could restrain him.

In two years at most, he will leave the Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, or even the Kingdom of Adude, to embark on his journey of "fighting monsters and upgrading".

This world is huge, and the Kingdom of Adud, which doesn't even have a legendary mage, is not a place he wants to stay for a long time.

However, the old fox is obviously eyeing him, and his current attitude is to win over, if he encounters any difficulties in the future, this old fox may be an umbrella to protect himself.

At least one thing is certain: there is no way he will be expelled, and no one will expel him...... Zhou Ming is very sure of this!

And after the turmoil of this matter, he learned from the old fox that it was Catherine from Class 3 who spoke for him, Zhou Ming took the magic cake that he was going to give to the old fox, and in the old fox's "stinky boy with no conscience" scolding, he directly mentioned Class 3, found Teacher Catherine, and thanked her.

"This cake is so precious, you better take it back. ”

Catherine said that she knew the price of the magic cake, and even with her salary, she couldn't eat it a few times a month.

"Teacher, take it, I made it myself, it doesn't cost much. ”

Zhou Ming handed the cake to her and said, "If it weren't for your help, teacher, I'm afraid I would have been expelled from school, this is a little bit of my heart, please accept it!"

"Okay. ”

Catherine thought about it and accepted the magic cake given by Zhou Ming.

She sighed in her heart, it has only been less than a year, and the changes in this child are too great.

She also knew that there had been a major change in the Leylin family, and during the most pessimistic and depressed period of Leylin, Catherine went to see him and gave him a little money to tide him over.

But at that time, seeing his decadent and lost appearance, Catherine realized that this child was probably going to be scrapped, and if he couldn't get out of the negative state in time, he would be like that for the rest of his life.

It's just that half a year has passed, and Lei Lin is still like that, and has become the target of bullying and ridicule by his classmates.

Every time she saw that scene, Catherine sighed and shook her head.

A good boy, just ruined.

However, another few months passed.

The magic cake shop famous in the royal capital has opened.

Lei Lin has become a well-known "soft rice man" in the whole school.

A few days ago, he beat Martin and took off the hat of the soft rice man.

Everything has changed in just a few months.

The classmate Lei Lin in front of her now is amazingly different from a few months ago.

She even wondered: Are these two people under the same skin?

But no matter what, she was still very happy in her heart, and at the same time told Zhou Ming: focus on studying, don't fight with those bad kids all day long, and strive to become a great magician!

"Yes, I see! Teacher Catherine, if I have any questions in the future, can I ask you to answer them, Teacher Olos doesn't like to answer my extracurricular questions. ”

Zhou Ming said that he does have many questions about magic, which are difficult for the system to answer, and the head teacher Olos only likes to answer the questions of nobles or girls, and always ignores him, and the one he asks the most is actually the manager of Hall of the Magic Association.

The purpose of his stay at the Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was, of course, to continue his quest for the mysteries of magic, and there was still a lot of knowledge to be studied and learned...... He has been in this world for no more than half a year, and he has only learned magic a little bit.

"Well, you can always ask me. ”

Catherine smiled slightly, with the temperament of an intellectual and mature teacher, Zhou Ming was a little distracted.

Smelling the faint violet fragrance emanating from her, Zhou Ming was a little uneasy, and said secretly: I'm used to seeing the scenery, why is I still like a junior brother?

Zhou Ming's performance Catherine saw it in her eyes, but maybe she saw too much, she just blushed slightly and didn't pay attention to it.

……

Zhou Ming's life seems to have returned to calm.

But this calm is only a brief calm before the storm.

The forces of all parties who want to deal with Zhou Ming can be so resigned?

For example, Martin directly took a month off to conduct a "retreat" cultivation at home to improve his strength frantically.

Another piece of particularly bad news for Zhou Ming was that the manager of the Gannis Pharmacy, Hall, was invited by a friend to visit the kingdom of Nabiu, thousands of miles away.

The trip is about half a year.

The current acting manager of Gannis's pharmacy is his granddaughter, Winnie.

When he got the news from Winnie's mouth, Zhou Ming felt a violent thump in his heart.

When he saw the almost perfect smile on Winnie's beautiful face again, Zhou Ming's heart sank to the bottom of the sea for 10,000 meters.

He asked tentatively: "Sister Winnie, I won't run away in the future, let you beat me, and we will turn the war into a jade silk, how about this?"

Winnie pouted and shook her head, "Don't." ”

"Ten tons, how about letting you beat up ten tons?"

Winnie laughed out two white teeth, but still shook her head: "Don't~"

At this moment, Zhou Ming's face was like a bitter gourd.

He pointed to a bottle of [Tranquilizing Elixir] on the counter and asked, "Sister Winnie, can you sell me the medicinal materials of [Tranquilizing Elixir]?"

"It's out of stock. ”

"How about 100 gold coins each?"

"It's really out of stock. Winnie spread her hands.

"What about the medicinal materials used to prepare the [Healing Elixir]?" Zhou Ming asked again, pointing to the healing potion.

"500 gold coins a piece, the price of medicinal herbs has risen recently. ”

Winnie said lightly, and directly increased the previous price of medicinal materials tenfold on the spot.

Zhou Ming wanted to cry without tears, so he had to leave in despair.

"Hahahaha~"

"Hahaha~"

Looking at his back as he left in frustration, Winnie burst out laughing, she had never been happier than she was today, who was known as the "Ice Beauty" at school.

"Boy, are you begging me for mercy?"

"Is a few words of begging for mercy enough for your insult to me?"

"If I don't torture you enough, if I don't torture you to kneel down in front of me and beg for mercy, will I let you go?"

"Let's play, let's play slowly, it's just the beginning!"

Winnie laughed out loud, smirking, smirking nervefully.

She had only one thought about the object of incomparably hated object in her heart:

I'm going to make you pay!

An incredibly high price!

……

The sudden departure of the store manager Hall, Zhou Ming, who was unprepared, returned home and immediately thought hard about meditation countermeasures.

However, in the entire kingdom of Adudus, there is only one official magic potion store, "Gannis Apothecary", and he cannot obtain medicinal materials through other channels except here.

Even if you can find a new channel, it will take some time.

In other words, after all the medicinal materials in his hand are consumed, there will be at least a period of time when he will not be able to prepare magic potions.

This can cause a lot of inconvenience.

No matter how much he apologizes and submits softly, she will try her best to play him.

Of course, he still has a lot of [tranquilizing elixirs] in his hand, and he can last for a month or two, but once he runs out, there are no medicinal materials for him to prepare new potions, and most of the "good brothers" around him will probably leave him.

However, instead of waiting for a month or two, only two days passed, and a thunderbolt of news came from a sunny day.

Winnie also began to dump the [Tranquilizer] at a low price, and she took the [Tranquilizer] peddled by a few girls, only selling a bottle of 80 gold coins, and did not set any "core customer" indicators, no matter which classmate, they could buy it at the price of 80 gold coins per bottle.

In addition, Winnie also revealed an explosive news: the actual cost of the [Tranquilizing Elixir] sold by Lei Lin was only 35 gold coins per bottle, but he increased the price by three times, claiming that it was sold at cost price, this black-hearted profiteer, this shameless big liar!

Rumble~

The whole school was amazed.

Especially the "good brothers" around Zhou Ming, they were shocked one by one.

"The cost of 35 gold coins, the core customers are selling 100 gold coins, this is ......"

"More than thirty gold coins, the cost of preparing the tranquilizer is so low?"

"Leylin, you even earn your good brother's money!"

"Thunderlin, I misread you!"

"I'm not a core customer, I bought the [Tranquilizing Elixir] from a core customer for 300 gold coins a bottle, but I didn't expect the real cost to be only more than 30 gold coins, ten times, ten times the profit!"

"Black heart, what a black heart!"

"Lei Lin, I won't buy your tranquilizer anymore, I will return all the remaining three bottles to you, and you will return the money to me!"

Among the 30 'good brothers', except for a few brothers who did not express anything, among the other people's evaluations, Zhou Ming's reputation has stinked to the extreme, and most of the team has dispersed.

Zhou Ming was also stunned, not knowing what to say for a long time.

What shocked him the most was that Winnie's approach to bring him down was completely unexpected.

This is a typical harm to others and not to oneself!

"Crazy, that woman, she's really crazy!"
