? The first round of written exams eliminated two-thirds of the applicants, and it seems that the exam papers that Merck used to test the applicants were certainly not as idiotic as Ami said.

There are a total of thirty-seven applicants left, Tanya is also among them, this 'female' child is 'sexual' strong, after Ding Huo's 'handing' paper, she also accelerated her answering speed and won the second place 'handing in' paper.

However, the senior alchemist who presided over the exam, after seeing Tanya's paper, only calmly said 'passed', far less surprised than when he saw Ding Huo's test paper.

Tanya was a little unconvinced, and while waiting, she secretly appraised Ding Huo's test papers, and then also 'revealed' a surprised expression.

“...... This recipe for melting metals can also be blended in this way? How can earth parasitism and igneous rock be combined?"

Tanya asked Ding Huo in a low voice.

Ding Huo glanced at Tanya, thought about it first, and felt that if he was blind, it would be easy to be exposed, so he said honestly: "I don't know either." ”

Belch......

Of course, Tanya wouldn't think that Ding Huo was telling the truth, if this recipe had been affirmed by a high-level alchemist, then it would definitely work, Ding Huo's attitude proved that he was unwilling to answer.

Hum...... , alchemists, this is how they are hostile to each other.

Tanya used her black and blue beautiful eyes to look at Ding Huo deeply.

Ding Huo smiled.

Tanya bit her lip.

About half an hour later, the applicants 'handed in' the papers one after another, and more than 70 people were eliminated on the spot, and finally 37 people remained.

The eliminated applicants were all like earth, and 10,000 gold coins were turned into nothing, but the Mercado Alchemy Tower was not so stingy, and they also obtained a magic guide pen with infinite ink as a souvenir.

The remaining thirty-seven candidates will enter the second round of exams, that is, the hands-on ability test, the deployment of alchemy reagents.

It is to mix the iron melting reagent that was written on the exam paper just now.

A few alchemy apprentices went in and out, moving in a few long tables, there were all kinds of long-mouthed bottles and materials on the table, as well as small magic stoves, all of which seemed to be high-end goods, Ding Huo heard the low exclamations of several applicants nearby, shouting how expensive these things were.

...... Will you be able to get through this round?

Ding Huo pretended to tap his ears inadvertently.

Ami's voice came from inside the communication crystal: "I can guide you, but to prepare this alchemy reagent, you need to be very 'precise' and accurate, otherwise it will explode...... , I would have known that I wouldn't have written more troublesome recipes. ”

Iron melting reagent is a commonly used reagent in alchemy, and there are many formulas, and Amirang Ding Huo wrote on the test paper is a very complicated one, the effect is very good, and the preparation is also more dangerous.

Originally, Ami thought that answering like this could make Ding Huo look very 'colorful', and he was more likely to see Mercado, but now it seems that it is a bit of a self-digging grave.

However, after setting up the long table, the senior alchemist said: "Many times, alchemists can't complete a research job alone, and they also need the cooperation of other alchemists. ”

"At the same time, I would like to tell you that since Master Mercado has a limit on the number of apprentices to be called, in the end, there will be up to five applicants, who will become the lowest apprentices of the master. ”

When the senior alchemist said this, it immediately caused a 'commotion' in the venue, and the thirty-seven applicants who entered the second round looked at each other and felt hostile, how could they trust each other?

There are also some applicants who feel that they are incompetent, and they begin to contact each other cautiously.

Helper.

That's a good idea.

Ding Huo, who was even more inadequate, immediately set his eyes on Tanya, according to Tanya's speed of 'handing in' just now, she should be the best among all applicants, and her ability to do experiments must not be bad.

"Using my formula, you can get a higher score, I will guide you to do it. Ding Huo said to Tanya.

"Why are you looking for me?" Tanya asked rhetorically, she still remembered Ding Huo's perfunctory attitude just now.

Ding Huo thought about it, but he really couldn't find a reason to get by, so he had to say: "Because your eyes are very beautiful." ”

Tanya blinked, she had a 'colorful' appearance, she had heard countless compliments, but on this occasion, at this time, hearing such words still made her a little stunned.

However, after a moment's hesitation, Tanya nodded: "I agree, but not because of your clumsy compliment, but because the formula you provide is indeed more effective, I have only seen the existence of this 'refined' iron melting reagent in some books." ”

Of course. Ding Huo pretended to nod calmly.

However, on the other side of the communication crystal, Ami was already laughing: "Haha, clumsy compliment, haha, Ding Huo, are you picking up girls, right? ”

What do you know...... , Ding Huo angrily tapped the communication crystal stuffed in his ear a few times, asking Ami to be serious.

At this time, there were already many applicants standing at the long table who were in a hurry to start, Ding Huo and Tanya, who also occupied one of the positions.

Tanya skillfully lit the miniature magic furnace, an expensive alchemy magic channel, was not a rare item for her.

"Now grind the soil parasitism into powder and mix it with mercury in a ratio of ten to one......

Ding Huo repeated Ami's instructions to Tanya in a tone of indifference.

Tanya looked at Ding Huo: "It's not polite to let a 'female' soldier do the manual work of crushing the 'medicine' powder. ”

"I have the knowledge, you put in the physical effort, and we should work together perfectly. Ding Huo replied.

It's not that Ding Huo is unwilling to do manual work, but once Ding Huo uses his clumsy method to pick up the copper hammer that crushes the 'medicine', everyone will know that he is a new hand.

If Ding Huo were to use the Force to smash these 'medicine' powders, long-mouthed bottles, and even the long table and the entire main hall, Ding Huo would be happy to obey.

Tanya frowned, but for the sake of a higher score, she still started to do everything.

Crush the 'medicine' powder, mix it with mercury, boil the basic reagent in a hot pot, and then add the igneous rock powder......

"Be careful, pay attention to the proportions here, otherwise it will explode ......"

As Ding Huo was talking, suddenly an explosion sounded from the left, and just three places away from Ding Huo and Tanya, the applicant's pot was blown to pieces, and the long-mouthed glass bottle on the table was also shattered.

Then not only was the applicant 'inserted' with various fragments of long-mouthed glass bottles, but several nearby applicants were also attacked.

Ding Huo saw a fragment flying towards Tanya, and as soon as he touched Tanya's skin, he was caught by Tanya with two fingers, and at the same time, Ding Huo also noticed a familiar 'wave' movement.

...... And so it was.

Ding Huo's thoughtful eyes were discovered by Tanya, who casually threw away the glass fragments between her two fingers, and then continued to mix reagents very calmly.

However, the explosion caused by this applicant not only disqualified him, but also failed the debugging of the five nearby applicants, so all six people were disqualified, and some people felt wronged and yelled and wanted to resist, but a tall and stout alchemist apprentice grabbed him and threw him out.

"For an alchemist, talent, knowledge, and hard work are all indispensable, but equally important, there is luck. The senior alchemist who presided over the exam said, "Do you have any understanding?"

Is comprehension all about staying away from the unlucky ones who will make the experiment explode?

That's when it happened.

Ding Huo and Tanya's experiment was nearing its end, and the last step, and the one that Ami thought Ding Huo would definitely mess up, was to add the igneous rock powder to the boiling pot.

Because she had been warned by Ding Huo, Tanya was also a little nervous.

"One cubic centimeter of igneous stone powder, double is two cubic centimeters......"

Tanya used a wide-mouth inclined bucket to put away the igneous rock powder and slowly poured it into a hot pot with silvery and yellow soil parasitic powder bubbles.

Wow......

The secret of the alchemist lies in the blending and 'exchange' of various substances, discovering secrets that have never been discovered before, and fusing everything in the world into a magical substance that has never appeared.

The moment she poured the igneous rock powder into the pot, Tanya 'revealed' a nervous and excited expression, and a drop of sweat on her forehead slowly fell, falling into the pot together with the igneous rock powder.

Oops......

When Ding Huo saw this scene, he felt that something was wrong.

Sure enough, the moment the beads of sweat fell into the pot, black smoke immediately rose from the pot, isn't this a sign of an explosion?

At this second, the applicants, who had just experienced an explosion crisis, saw the black smoke rising from the Ding Huo and Tanya pots, and immediately scattered and retreated like frightened birds.

Ding Huo immediately stretched out his hand and pulled Tanya over.

At this moment, Tanya was too 'excited', and her instinctive reaction put a certain energy in her body in a very active state, Ding Huo reached out and immediately 'provoked' her 'excited' reaction.

A black 'colored' mist appeared in Tanya's hand, and it was about to invade Ding Huo.

In Ding Huo's palm, a layer of substance like ice crystals also quietly appeared, swallowing and suppressing Tanya's black 'color' mist.

Belch......?!

Tanya turned her head and looked at Ding Huo in surprise.

Hush.

Ding Huo made a silent expression.

At this time, the black smoke in the pot that was originally emitting black smoke gradually weakened, and it seemed that although a drop of sweat destroyed the equilibrium structure of the reagent, it would not cause a more 'intense' reaction.

The reagent in the pot gradually took shape and stabilized into a kind of "milk" white like solid goat's "milk".

Double 'refined' iron melting reagent, success.

This kind of luck made Tanya breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time, her suspicious gaze also turned to Ding Huo.

The senior alchemist, who presided over the consideration, walked up to Ding Huo and Tanya, checked the reagents in the pot, looked at the two of them again, and said, "You guys are lucky, pass." ”

Ding Huo and Tanya's successful passage brought a lot of pressure to other applicants, and there were three fryers in a row, which directly led to the failure of other applicants nearby, and in the end, only Ding Huo and Tanya were able to successfully debug the iron-melting reagent.

"Master Mercado will receive you personally. The senior alchemist said, "Perform the apprenticeship ceremony." ”~
