Chapter 16: The Alchemists' Guild
After the registration, the seekers left the door one after another.
Today's task is just to report and pass the first test by the way.
There is no doubt that today's test can be described as some people are happy and some are worried.
The side that stood and walked out of the door was undoubtedly the victor, with a light on their faces.
And the one who was carried out was one of the many losers.
This test was very intense, and it was undoubtedly the most difficult in history.
More than 7,000 people were eliminated in the first round, which is a terrifying number.
As a result, the Holy Moon Academy became a large-scale lifting site for a while, and everyone was busy carrying people everywhere, and they were very busy.
When a person lies down, he lifts it.
Relatives and friends began to cry.
"See you tomorrow, Simon. ”
"Well, see you tomorrow. ”
After saying hello to Simon, Surina disappeared into the crowd.
It's still early, the sun hasn't risen to the middle yet, and if I do, it should only be around 10 o'clock.
While it was still early and it was not time for lunch, Simon simply walked around the royal capital.
Anyway, now there are people in the royal capital, and it is even more fierce than when they came, and they can't squeeze out, it's just a waste of effort, and Roy won't mind if he thinks about it.
Due to the enrollment time of the Holy Moon Academy today, there is an extremely high flow of people, and vendors from all walks of life are trying their best to promote their products.
"Come on, take a look, take a look! Don't miss it when you pass by! Freshly baked pills!"
It was a muscular uncle who was talking, holding a box with black pills in it, and was drinking it diligently.
"Our family's strong pill is the only one in the matter!"
"After eating, my waist is no longer sore, my legs are not painful, I can turn over hundreds of heels in one breath, and I can lose weight and beautify my face, which is really not to be missed on a home trip!"
"Don't miss it!"
"Hey, uncle, why do you sell these balls?"
It was a fat man with a big belly and five large gold chains around his neck.
"Oh, isn't this Young Master Wang! Come on, come on, take a look, this color, this luster, this is the only one in the world!"
With that, the uncle held up the black pill to the fat man surnamed Wang for him to look at carefully.
Wang Fatzi looked left and right, staring at him with big eyes and then looking.
"Well, it's in good condition, I want it!"
"Hey~ Young Master Wang, it's really time for you to come, it's time for you to come, it's only 100 manas to buy one, and now it's open for rewards, buy more and give more, don't miss it!"
"How many more are there?"
"There's a whole box, Wang Shao...... ...... Grandpa"
Before the words fell, the uncle was slapped away by the so-called Young Master Wang, and the whole person turned around in the sky several times before landing.
"I think Young Master Ben is easy to deceive, call me!"
At some point, a few muscular men came out of the crowd and punched and kicked the liar uncle, wailing constantly.
This kind of thing is very common in the current situation, some people are successfully deceived, and some people are forced to fight back on the spot.
Even stealing is not a minority, and there are often people who lose their valuables, most of whom are studying for the party.
Simon, dressed plainly, failed to get into the eyes of thieves and vendors, and walked the streets carefree.
suddenly
Simon stopped, and in front of him was a richly decorated shop, with a few large letters prominently written on the sign at the door.
Society of Alchemists.
An alchemist......
Since I came to this other world, I haven't seen a real alchemist, so I have to go in and see it for a long time.
Simon walked into the store with a longing in mind.
Alchemists can be said to be an extremely high-income industry.
The people who came to ask for medicine lined up in several long lines, and the momentum was far from losing the scene when they signed up.
Simon casually found the least personal position and took it, looking around.
It's gorgeous, it's gorgeous, and a lot of the decoration in the store is made of pure gold, and the alchemist is really not short of money.
"Hey, where did you come from, get out of the way!"
Simon was awakened by a sudden voice, and he turned his head to see a man in a guard suit yelling at him.
"Look at it, what about you, you poor ghost! line up and get over there, don't be here!"
"What's wrong with me standing here?" Simon asked.
"You're a dead poor ghost, not only poor but also illiterate, aren't you?"
"Look, this is a special channel for drug identification, they all have their own refining medicines in their hands, it's not something that a dead poor ghost like you can arrange, just get out of the way, don't delay everyone's time!"
The guard pointed to the board hanging in the sky and replied to Simon in an extremely amiable tone.
"So what?" Simon was puzzled.
"What's the matter, you poor ghost, hurry up and get out of the way, don't delay others!"
"Yo, what's going on?"
A man dressed in a high-level alchemist's robe approached with a three-star alchemist badge on his chest, signed "Liu Kechen" underneath.
"Lord Liu Kechen, why don't you notify Xiao Yi, Xiao Hao will arrange a fast track for you. ”
The guard hurriedly said respectfully to the man named Liu Kechen.
What are you kidding, this is a 3-star alchemist, if something makes him unhappy, he won't want to do this guard job.
Alchemists also define strength at a hierarchical level.
The lowest is a one-star apprentice, and the highest is a five-star alchemy saint.
The president of this alchemy association is only 4 stars, and the five stars are even more legendary, and there is no five-star alchemist in the entire Niberkla continent.
Because of this, the alchemist of the three stars is already at the master level to some extent.
"It's okay, I'm just going out for a stroll and prescribing a potion certificate by the way. ”
Liu Kechen took out a bottle of pale red potion from his arms and shook it gently in his hand.
Open the proof!
The guards who heard the keyword hurriedly roared like Simon.
"Dead poor ghost, why are you still standing here, get out of here! You can't afford to pay for delaying Master Liu Kechen's time!"
"That one is called Liu Kechen, is he very powerful?" Simon asked.
"It's not a question of whether it's powerful or not! You don't understand it, you poor ghost, hurry up and get out of the way!"
The guard waved his hand violently, signaling Simon to get out of here as soon as possible, but Simon was indifferent.
"So he's not powerful, what's the matter with me?"
"—————— what?!"
"It doesn't matter. ”
The guards just wanted to use force to forcibly expel Simon, but were stopped by Liu Kechen with one hand.
Liu Kechen walked up to Simon and carefully glanced at Simon with his professional gaze.
White robe - rotten street goods.
Noble air - no.
There is nothing on his body that can symbolize status.
Seeing this, Liu Kechen couldn't help but let out a contemptuous laugh.
"What are you looking at?"
Liu Kechen's eyes roamed around Simon like a poisonous snake, making Simon very uncomfortable.
"I said, little brother, do you know where this team is?"
"I know. ”
"You know you're still standing here?"
"Why not?"
To be honest, Simon never thought he would be standing in line with those people honestly in the first place.
The line was lined up for I don't know how many streets, and by the time it was his turn, wouldn't it be dark?
And besides, he was just going to see the alchemist's skills, not to buy medicine.
If he could, he would be happy to use the potion he invented to compete with these alchemists from another world.
The situation here is very eye-catching, and many people have already stood up to watch.
"Listen, standing here, you need to have a potion that can be refined, I don't think you're a person with a potion, do you, little brother? ”
Liu Kechen scoffed.
"Ah, I have a bottle here. As he spoke, Simon took out a mini glass bottle containing bright red liquid from his arms, which was many times smaller than Liu Kechen.
"Ha, he wouldn't want to use such a small bottle to shout at Master Liu Kechen, would he?
"Oh my God, even such a small bottle dares to have the face to take it out, laugh at me!"
The crowd of onlookers couldn't help but sneer when they saw Simon pull out such a mini bottle.
"Haha, that's it, I advise you to save it, get out of here and don't make people laugh anymore!" the guard laughed.
"What's wrong?"
It was a man who was wearing the same robe as a senior alchemist as Liu Kechen.
But unlike him, the man did not have an alchemist's badge on his chest, but instead the emblem of a shield.
His name was Shao Kesa, and he was an alchemist and one of the people in charge of the appraisal here.
"Yo, Shao Kesa, you came just in time, this little brother wants to use his mini potion to compare with me, can you identify it?" Liu Kechen said.
Shao Kesa looked at the pale red potion in Liu Kechen's hand, and at a glance he could tell that it was a weak-performing intermediate healing potion.
When his eyes met the miniature potion in Simon's hand, he froze.
"Hah! Your junk potion even the Shaw Assessor looked disappointed, I really don't know where you got your face to continue standing here. ”
"yes, yes, if I were you, I'd be dead on this wall. ”
"The garbage potion is still on the shelf and pretending to be a big guy, I almost believed in your evil!"
The crowd of onlookers gossiped.
"Puff~ Little brother, the ending is already so clear, don't you want to leave?" Liu Kechen sneered.
"Get out of here, you poor ghost!" shouted the guard.
"Come, Judge Shaoxa, declare my victory!"
“...... It's, it's amazing!"
"Yes, yes, that's great...... What?!"
An undisguised glow and joy poured out, and he swore he had never seen such a flawless potion.
Bright red, containing crystal highlights that are intoxicating, is this really a potion, this is actually a work of art, right?
"Oh my God, please let me take a closer look!" said Shao Kesa excitedly.
Shao Kesa's sudden change made everyone present dumbfounded, could it be that the bottle in the poor boy's hand was really some kind of high-grade potion?
"No way, no way! He's just a poor ghost, how can he sell high-end goods, in my opinion, he's stealing!" shouted the guard.
"Please don't say that to our valued customers, we're going to have a hard time if you do that, so you can pack up and leave now, and someone will take your place tomorrow. ”
Shao Kesa said coldly at the guard.
This sudden news hit the guards' hearts like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, and it was difficult to disperse for a long time.
“...... Shao Kesa, look at my ......"
Liu Kechen thought that Shao Kesa hadn't noticed his potion, and deliberately put the potion together.
"It's nothing pretty, it's just a bottle of intermediate healing potion diluted with water. ”
As soon as this remark came out, it immediately aroused a fierce response from everyone present.
"What? Intermediate healing potion diluted with water?"
"Make money without a conscience, profiteers!"
"Bah, scum!"
Generally, no one will use a healing potion if they are not injured, and those who use healing potions are usually very momentary.
In particular, the high price of intermediate healing potions is rarely used, and when used, it is generally used to save lives.
What is the concept of the diluted healing potion, but the effect of the potion that is supposed to have a life-saving effect is not even as good as the primary level, causing countless people to die in vain.
For a while, Liu Kechen became the object of spurning by everyone present, and his old customers had already rolled up their sleeves and dragged Liu Kechen out of the Alchemist Association and started the education of love.
"Let's go, sir. ”
"Hmm. ”
Simon followed Shaw up the stairs.
