Chapter 22: A New Sequence
?? At the end of December, the end of the year.
Chris. Charlotte came out of his villa after breakfast with a leisurely expression, and slowly walked into the headquarters of the Scarlet Cross, which was not far from his villa.
It was morning, and there weren't too many people in the Scarlet Cross headquarters, but no matter what they were doing, they saw Chris. Charlotte's arrival decisively stopped the movements of his hands and saluted him.
Chris. Charlotte looked at the gang members in the Scarlet Cross headquarters who kept bowing and saluting him, and he was in a good mood, so compared to his usual attitude of direct indifference, he nodded his head today.
Walking all the way to the training ground directly below the headquarters of the Scarlet Cross, although it was early in the morning, the field was already crowded with training gang members. Charlotte's arrival was more enthusiastic than the gang members in the headquarters above, and they all cast their longing eyes on Chris. Charlotte's body.
Chris. It had been more than a month since Charlotte had last come to this training ground, and he looked at the gang members in front of him who were obviously much more passionate and eager than last month, and knew in his heart that after more than a month of fermentation and the intuitive performance of the terrifying combat power of the three successfully promoted gang members when they trained them every day, these gang disciples who might have struggled in the mud all their lives were already full of extreme desire for the cup of potion that could change their fate.
"How have they performed in the past month or so, and how many have reached the threshold for promotion?"
Chris. Charlotte casually asked the instructor Alpha at the front below, which immediately made the people below nervous, and they all stared at the instructor Alpha at the front at this time, looking forward to hearing their names from his mouth.
Alpha, as an instructor who was successfully promoted from an ordinary gang leader to a Sequence 9 street fighter more than a month ago, is usually quite conscientious and responsible, and has personally experienced the death scene of two of the five potion users, how can he not know which of the following trainers is really up to the standard of being promoted, so Chris. As soon as Xia Luo's words fell, he simply and neatly reported the names of the four people on the spot.
"Gera, Ellie, Mine, and Balaton, the physical fitness and fighting level of the four of them are already quite good, even slightly stronger than the level of our five when they were promoted, I think they have reached the standard of taking potions, please review the president."
Chris. Charlotte's gaze swept over the four lucky ones whose names were named in the backpack below, and instantly sensed all the physical conditions of these four people, which was indeed not bad, although it was not necessarily higher than the first five members to take potions, but they had indeed reached the standard of taking potions.
Since there is no problem with strength, Chris. Charlotte didn't bother to make any more superfluous selections, so she asked Alpha to go upstairs to the headquarters to select the materials for four potions, and let him start boiling them directly on the spot.
Like the four students who were excitedly waiting for the potion to be refined, Alpha was in Chris. It was also the first time that Charlotte had officially refined potions after teaching the three of them the specific potion refining method last month, so his face was no more relaxed than those students, and his expression was also extremely solemn.
He stared at the pile of materials in front of him with a serious expression, and his mouth was full of words.
"The gray is the devil's hair, and a handful of them will do; Then there are the green wolf teeth, which require two; Finally, the flower juice of the manchi flower, the amount is 10 grams; The three items are boiled in three times, each with 30 ml of pure water..."
"That's it, the process is not difficult, Alpha, don't be nervous."
The burly alpha followed the steps with a nervous face while gradually putting the ingredients in the crucible and boiling it with pure water, while constantly muttering to himself encouraging himself, obviously very nervous, not to mention Chris. Charlotte, even the students behind him could see it.
The four of Gela watched nervously as the instructor Alpha kept putting pure water into the crucible to boil the materials, for fear that one would accidentally destroy his potion, but fortunately, although the process was a little stumbling, Alpha finally succeeded in boiling the four potions, and there was no mistake in refining the potion.
"Well, although the process is a bit bad, there is nothing wrong with the potion, you can let the four of them take it."
Chris. Charlotte looked indifferently at the four potions that Alpha had taken in front of him, and after a little examination, he announced the results in Alpha's expectant gaze.
"Thank you, President!"
"Thank you, President!"
"Thank you, President!"
Alpha hurriedly bowed down to thank him, and with a happy face, he distributed the four bottles of potions to the four excited-looking students below, and the four excited-looking students also led the students beside him to bow their heads and salute Chris after receiving the potion from Alpha. Charlotte expressed her gratitude.
Chris. Seeing this, Charlotte nodded and didn't say much, just waved his hand and motioned to the four of Gela below to hurry up and take the potion to advance.
Seeing this, the four of them were no longer hypocritical, and decisively poured the potion into their mouths, quietly waiting for the arrival of the promotion.
"Hmm... It hurts! ”
After only a few seconds of taking the potion, the four of them turned red, curled up on the ground and moaned continuously, their faces were extremely painful, and the students near them quickly dispersed one by one, not daring to stay in place, nor daring to speak so as not to disturb the four of them.
????“ Hush! It's normal, keep quiet, instructor, I was like this when I was promoted before, and then it's up to us to see how many of the four of them can survive. ”
?? Alpha, who was quietly observing from the side, looked at the slightly nervous students behind him and said in a deep voice.
Alpha looked at the four students on the ground who had been trained quite well by himself for months on the ground with a difficult and calm face, like dying beasts, constantly struggling and moaning on the ground, and couldn't help but think of his own equally painful promotion process at that time, and suddenly sighed.
"It's just that the street fighters who are promoted to Sequence 9 are so painful, what can they do with those who struggle with the fate of Sequence 8 in the future, the promotion sequence is really dangerous, no wonder Tris said that there are not many people in the Sequence in the Kingdom of Rune, and I am afraid that most people will not be able to survive the promotion process."
Thinking of this, Alpha couldn't help frowning.
It's just that Alpha obviously didn't talk to him more because he didn't like Tris's personality, so he didn't know that the regular 22 sequential promotion path was not so painful to promote, although the risk was also great, but the mental losers all died in the crazy babbling when they were promoted, which was not the same as their simple physical change pain.
In the world of the Lord of Mysteries, since the origin of the sequence comes from the old rulers, every promotion of the sequencer will be disturbed by the knowledge and whispers left behind by the old days.
And Alpha they are a few different because they are walking with Chris. Charlotte is the source of the sequence of promotion paths, so although they will be rejected by the world consciousness when they are promoted, they will not be affected by Chris. Charlotte's whispering interference can be said to be as long as she survives every painful promotion process, even if she successfully enters the safe window, it is very comfortable.
Soon, after a painful struggle, unlike the first batch of cadets to be promoted, there was Chris . Charlotte helped, and even if the four students endured it this time, they were only able to be promoted to two students.
Alpha looked at the two bleeding corpses on the ground, apparently dead in pain, with some regret, and shook his head without speaking.
He originally thought that the two of Jera and Balaton, who he had always been optimistic about, would be able to be successfully promoted, and as a woman, Ellie would be the first to fail to be promoted, but he didn't expect the result to be the opposite, and sure enough, it was to death, and the usual training performance had become less accurate, and everyone's potential began to be unknown.
Seeing that Aili and Mine, who had just stood up from the ground, gradually calmed down, Alpha patted his face and no longer let himself think about it, but looked at the two of them with a relieved smile and smiled:
??“ Originally, I was a little worried about the two of you, but I didn't expect the two of you to perform so well, very good, everyone will be street fighters in the future, learn more. ”
"Now you should move your muscles, after all, you have just been promoted, and it is quite new to think of you."
Erie and Mine obviously looked a little excited when they had just been promoted, they nodded frequently listening to the words of the instructor alpha in front of them, obviously quite agreeing, and Mine, who has always been more active, heard that he jumped back directly, and was quite excited that a whip leg kicked out towards Arie's sweep.
Ellie dodged lightly, and started her counterattack process directly with the same excitement.
In the midst of their excitement, Chris. Charlotte's form had vanished without a trace, and none of them, including Alpha, had noticed.
