Chapter 31: If You Say I'll Believe It?
The office of Aldrich, the head of the Potions Academy.
"No... No! Dean, you must have misunderstood. I didn't refine this potion, I just tried to refine the base materials. Then I failed too much, so I gave up..."
The inexplicable closed-door inquiry made Raymond feel a little panicked.
For the Potions Master, talent must be the result of the accumulation of resources, not a step into the sky.
Three awakenings of the transcendent failed, and the recognized civilian waste wood suddenly turned into a potions genius, and anyone would guess that he had a secret on him.
Before the old man's purpose, Raymond didn't dare to admit the name of the "Potions Genius".
"As for the potion you mentioned... I don't know. ”
“...”
Aldrich had been immersed in reading an advanced potions book, as if he was sitting firmly on the Diaoyu Tai.
Waiting for Raymond to finish his crackling quibbles, he raised his head and asked again, "You really didn't refine it?" ”
When the old man said this, there was a smile and a sparkle of wisdom in his old eyes.
Raymond looked firm, shook his head, and said, "No! ”
Aldrich then asked, "Then tell me what kind of materials you went to the laboratory to refine?" ”
Hearing this, the corners of Raymond's eyes twitched, and the old man didn't seem to be easy to fool.
He wanted to see the old man's reaction, but he looked at each other, and was immediately defeated by the wise gaze.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward,
With a roll of his eyes, Raymond thought about casually saying a few basic materials to deal with, and said, "Probably. There are 'webs of black-striped spiders', 'eyes of salmon', 'scarlet thorn feathers', 'powder of stone'..."
But he didn't expect that as soon as these words came out, he was scolded back.
"I've seen the traces on the bench, and it just so happens that there are no traces of the materials you mentioned. On the contrary, all I found were traces of material refinement that the [Thief] formula had turned off first..."
Aldrich is the head of the Potions Academy, and his knowledge has accumulated to a terrifying level.
As it happens, [Thief] knows the full recipe.
He continued: "It also means... The person who stayed in the laboratory had been refining the ingredients for the [Thief] potion. Since you admit to being in the lab, you didn't refine it, and who is it? ”
“...”
Can you see this?
A touch of embarrassment immediately appeared on Raymond's face, and he touched the back of his head in a stupid manner.
This old man stalked and asked this question, what did he want to do?
Aldrich had a kind look on his face, and he couldn't see any other malicious intent on his face, and said again: "Originally, I planned to accept another closed disciple before I retired. If that potion was really made by you, then your potions talent should be pretty good..."
Hearing this, Raymond figured out that this old man had gone to such great lengths to "interrogate" behind closed doors, as if he wanted to take in an apprentice?
"In fact, almost all people in this world can awaken transcendental, and those who fail, it's just that they haven't found a potion sequence with a high enough fit for their bodies..."
Aldrich stroked his beard and talked eloquently: "I have probably heard about your situation. If you become my disciple, then it means that you have at least hundreds of potion sequences to choose from, and the possibility of successfully advancing to the extraordinary is extremely high. Moreover, you will get countless shortcuts for free, and the massive resources of the academy will open the door to cheap ones for you..."
As he spoke, the old man pointed to the potions books in the room in the office and said, "Including the private collection resources I have accumulated over the years. ”
"With these resources, it's enough for anyone with even more ordinary qualifications to advance to an intermediate potions master..."
The room was densely packed with countless potion-related secret books, countless times more than Raymond himself had stolen from Yuke's lab...
There is not only elementary Potions knowledge here, but even intermediate advanced knowledge.
This advanced knowledge of potions is truly priceless...
Potions, just by reading the classics on his own, is at most a wild path to become a monk halfway, and he can't go far at all.
It's like Yuke, who has been a pirate for decades, and is still stuck in a two-star potions master.
To learn potions, you must have a famous teacher to lead the way, so that the knowledge learned can become a system, and the road to advancement in the future will be smooth.
It's like a building must have a foundation and lay a solid foundation to make it possible to reach a higher level.
And Aldrich in front of him is one of the best potions instructors in the Black Sea.
