The black-gray kettle was steaming white, and it was carried off the stove, and when the lid was opened, the smoke was filled up, like a swirling fairyland, and behind it was a pair of carefully watched eyes, bright and slightly infiltrated.

Elisa's white hand turned off the fire, lifted the kettle, poured the boiling water into the white porcelain tea set, and watched the pale red tea leaves swirl and float, blurring a circle of foam, up and down.

She made every movement carefully, as if it were a flash, and after making three cups of tea, she smiled slightly, put them on a silver tray with satisfaction, and carried them out with one hand.

Outside, the big cat-man and Baggins were sitting on the terrace of the platform, the vines planted by Attila had pulled their branches, the green leaves hung above everyone's heads, the light and shadow were shattered, and the Lionman Paladin was intently carving a brand new pipe with a carving knife.

"Red, Mr. Baggins, Miss Shesta, tea is ready."

In the center of the terrace lay a small round table with a few refreshments, and a few white wooden chairs scattered around it, and Miss Delis leaned back in the corner of the chair, squinting lazily.

"Thank you, Alyssa." The big cat man put down the carving knife in his hand and smiled gently.

"Miss Attila is working a lot harder than I am." Alice smiled and said, "She prepared the refreshments by herself. ”

"Indeed, her craft is the same as when she was in the Giant Tree Hill, and she has not regressed at all." The big cat man agreed.

"Thank you." Baggins also put down the teleportation crystal in his hand and nodded at her. The crystal is on the scene of Van Rik in real time, the crowd is parting left and right, and the winner of the previous match is slowly walking off the field.

Above are their familiar faces.

"Ed, they've won again." Alyssa looked at the image and smiled crooked eyebrows.

"Narrowly won." Baggins replied.

Shesta was taking the teacup and only nodded to Alyssa.

"Mr. Baggins also has research on artisan competitions?" Alyssa asked, a little curious.

"I understand a little." Baggins continued.

The wind rustles through the grape trellises, the leaves rustle, and the southern wind passes through Istania with the dry smell of the sand.

Attila frowned and walked out of the bow galley, and said to a few people, "Mr. Graystone is a little uneasy, I don't know what is nearby to provoke it like this. ”

Then Miss Delis suddenly opened her eyes, meowed, stretched her feet on the ground, and then jumped nimbly to one side of the ship, and stood on it with her tail up.

The Lion Paladin put down the carving knife in his hand, picked up the scepter nestled in his chair, and stood up, looking over the side of the ship in that direction towards the sparkling Long Lake.

In the afternoon, there were few people in the port area, and everyone went to watch the game, and the sun was shining down, and the visibility was extremely high, and you could clearly see the quiet forest on the other side of the lake a few miles away.

Baggins also picked up his handcuffs.

"A few stinky fish and rotten shrimp." Red narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint in his silver-gray eyes.

There was a long trestle in the direction of Pier 4, and behind the three-masted galleon the Skarme, several shadows were sneaking ashore from the water, with a lake-green smooth, damp skin, and long spiky fins growing on the back of the head, neck, back, and shoulder blades.

"Echnomer." Baggins recognized the monsters as well.

"It must not be a good thing for these things to appear here," replied the lionman, "and while I teach them a lesson, you go and find the nearest man." ”

He hung the scepter behind him and walked forward.

But Alyssa stopped them: "Wait a minute, Mr. Baggins, Mr. Red." ”

"What do you see that?" She asked, pointing in the direction of Long Lake.

On the sparkling surface of the lake, a pale white spray was surging in this direction, and it was several miles long to the left and right, like a white line, slowly moving in the direction of the port.

……

The corpse was prostrate on the ground, its face hidden in the shadow of the backlight, motionless. Sticky blood gurgled quietly, blood soaked into the masonry like slowly expanding black markings.

The fatal wound was a penetrating wound to the chest, where the armor was dented and rolled inward.

Imagine a spear piercing through its back, piercing through two layers of armor before leaving a gap in the moss-covered stone bricks. The attacker then drew his spear, and the owner of the body fell to the ground, leaving trails on the ground as the gushing blood poured out.

The spear had inflicted a deep cut wound at the intrusion, and it was conceivably flanked by a flat blade, and in Nognes the spear with such a blade was often held in a powerful hand.

The withered, slender arms were covered with gray scales.

The slender lizardmen resemble shadows cast at the entrance to the sewers, whispering in a muffled conversation before disappearing into the tunnels of the black hole like ghosts.

In the distance, the sound of a tsunami was rising in the square.

The cheers reached this corner that no one knew.

It even shook the glass of a two-story building a street away and shook slightly—

Yu Wenyu pressed his hand on the glass. Aitalia's glass craftsmanship was nowhere near Earth's, and the impurities on the glass looked like stars on a closer look, trembling so that he couldn't see the entrance to the apartment on the other side of the street.

He doesn't like to have accidents.

Just like the moment the target is put into the crosshair, the wind deviation, the ballistic fall, the humidity, and the subtle physiological shaking are all taken into account.

Passing through the square to here, it is the common residence of more than a dozen guilds of Van Rik, and the apartment in front of it belongs to the Shadow Throne. A little further on, is the core of the Elffindor Spire.

The headquarters of the Southern Alchemist League, the center of the city hall and the city's enchantment.

At this moment, under his gaze, three people walked out of the entrance of the apartment, and the three of them were wearing gray battle robes, which were the clothes of the current Southern Alliance. But there was nothing out of the ordinary, and the three of them headed towards the square together. So Yu Wenyu picked up the pen and wrote down the appearance of the three people.

The job was boring, but it was just right for him.

He finished writing the last word, put down the quill, and turned his gaze to the side, and the guard guarding the entrance to the sewers in that direction was gone. Yu Wenyu shook his head and muttered in his heart, compared to them, these guards had no sense of responsibility.

But the fat man sitting across from him suddenly stood up.

"Where are you going?"

"I'll take a look." Luo Hao replied, "You stay here." ”

"They deserted, what does it have to do with you, it's not your job."

Luo Hao looked at this guy with a little disdain: "Please show some subjective initiative, we are not staying here to be scarecrows, the head of the regiment means to let us prevent accidents." ”

"What is an accident," Luo Hao said angrily, "An accident is the collapse of a thousand-mile embankment in an anthill." ”

Yu Wenyu glanced at him: "The general doesn't need soldiers who think too much. ”

"Antique thoughts," Luo Hao dropped a sentence and walked out.

……

Su Changfeng heard a rustling sound from the communication crystal in his hand.

The noisy background noise is gradually converging into a complete sentence: "Commander...... We've found our target......" But he didn't respond, just covered the crystal with his hand and looked up—

In the sky, the big boy was scratching his head and was interviewed by a reporter from Earth with an embarrassed expression: "This gentleman, are you the leader of Ragnarok?" You're a bit of a face, are you competing for Ragnarok for the first time? ”

"How did you feel after winning Silver Vislan?"

Fang Yu was confused, and he didn't expect this link at all.

He could only laugh and say, "It's okay......"

"How's it going, have you achieved your desired goal?"

How did he know, Fang Yu said angrily in his heart.

"It's okay to ......" Fang Yu thought about it seriously for a while, and felt that some words were poor: "It's just ...... It's just okay. ”

Off the field, Sophie and Tang Xin were both supporting their foreheads.

The reporter was also a little speechless: "Then what is Ragnarok's next goal?" ”

"That, fight for the third ...... Right? ”

Fang Yu thought about it for a moment and decided to use the words of soul fingerprints.

Of course, that's not what he thinks in his heart.

It's just that sure enough, this answer also met the reporter's expectations, and the other party smiled at him: "Thank you, can you take a photo?" ”

Fang Yu nodded stiffly.

Seconds later, along with the rest of Ragnarok's team, he was left with a silly smile in the group photo.

"Commander, what should I do?" The voices of the peripheral team members were coming from inside the communication crystal.

Only then did Su Changfeng withdraw his gaze from the sky and replied, "Look at the surroundings of the square and let him continue to participate in the competition." After the game, invite him over. Pay attention to the attitude, but also point out his identity. ”

"Understood." The team nodded at the other end of the crystal.

Su Changfeng put away the crystal and glanced at the big boy in mid-air again.

"Silly boy."

He thought to himself.

Inside the box, Falaise was listening to the dwarf with a frown.

He tapped the wooden table with his knuckles - he had heard of this boy, but he had not seen the records of the game at that time, and he was indeed a genius at this age.

But the dwarf was a little absent-minded, and aimlessly flipped through the corners of the thick stack of parchment in his hand, and a somewhat inexplicable thought came to his mind, but he sane rejected it.

Will there be so many coincidences in this game?

But isn't the other possibility even more coincidental?

I'm really a little crazy.

The dwarven craftsman couldn't help but be startled when he saw him rummaging through the stack of lists: "Mr. President? ”

"How?" Falais came back to his senses: "You want to pull him into the main competition list, then it's okay, as long as the other party agrees." But don't bother me just yet, let me be quiet. ”

The dwarf nodded hurriedly and turned around excitedly.

But Fareth stopped him: "Wait, what do you want to do?" ”

The dwarf turned around and looked at him in some surprise, thinking to himself, didn't you agree?

Falaise said angrily: "This is in the middle of the game, do you want to disturb the order of the game?" Go and get the process done first, and then go to someone after the game is over. ”

The other party suddenly realized, and then bowed and saluted: "Mr. President is right, let's do it." ”

Then he left again in a huff.

Falais looked at the other party's back and couldn't help but shake his head.

……

Fang Yu finally separated from the crowd and walked out.

He looked left and right, he had shown his face once in Elpahim, and he should have left a video record at that time. He didn't know how many people recognized him in the previous interview, but he was somewhat prepared.

So I didn't panic too much.

He finds others.

In front of Chickpeas, Mu Lan, Cui Yu and Dill, he got straight to the point: "Do you want to win the championship?" ”

The four of them all looked at him with some inexplicability.

At the time of their interview, the other two matches were over - the military team eliminated the Fenris Alchemy Guild, and the Elite took down the Godslayer without any setbacks. Just now, they got the list of opponents for the next match.

Elite。

The crowd was actually already thinking about the next race, which was the fight for third or fourth place.

After all, if you want to defeat the Elite led by the Virus, what a fantasy is this? Even the most daring delusional would not dare to imagine that such a thing would happen.

But after listening to his words, the soul fingerprint who was consulting the information of the previous game suddenly turned around, looked at him and asked calmly, "What did you say?" ”

Fang Yu took a light breath and repeated his words: "I said, do you want to win the championship?" ”

Only then did everyone realize that they had heard correctly, and they couldn't help but look at each other, and some looked at each other. If it was before, Cui Yu in the crowd might have laughed out loud, but at this time, they couldn't laugh. Everyone can see that Fang Yu is the one who really has the strength to win the championship.

Just themselves......

Only Liyue didn't care, anyway, he lost the last game again, and more than one game is better.

Only the soul fingerprint was calm, his eyes looked at Fang Yu quietly, and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Fang Yu took another breath and replied softly: "For an opponent like Elite, there is no point in targeting, you can only face the enemy head-on - on top of the two questions we can determine, defeat the opponent with an absolute advantage." ”

After he finished speaking, everyone was a little quiet for a while.

"Beat the Elite by a dominant score?" Mu Lan almost didn't reach out to touch the forehead of this junior brother, wondering if he was talking nonsense: "With us, it's already thankful that we won't be defeated by the other party with an absolute advantage." ”

But Fang Yu looked at Dill and Cui Yu, obviously prepared: "Of course it wasn't possible, but if you can determine the production project, it's not without a chance." Dill, Cui Woo, this one needs both of you to give full play to your talents. ”

He paused: "So I'm asking you again, do you want to win the championship?" ”

The two looked at each other with some confusion.

But they can all see in each other's eyes, which belongs to the unrealistic ambitions of young people.

They clenched their fists and nodded in unison.

Fang Yu took out his pocket watch and glanced down at the time. Then he looked up and said to the two, "There's a halftime break after the quarterfinals, plus there's an interview between the Elite and the military, so we've got about half an hour. ”

He looked at the two of them, "You come with me." ”

With that, Fang Yu looked at the soul fingerprints on the side again. And the soul fingerprint was also looking at him, and after only a moment of silence, he nodded to him.

It's not because of anything else—

Rather, the communication crystal she held in her hand was emitting a faint glow.

There are several pieces of information on it:

"Did you get someone?"

"Let him do it, soul."

Settler, Odin.

……

Fang Yu took Dill and Cui Yu to a café outside the square, because everyone had gathered in the square, there was not a single guest here at the moment, and it seemed a little quiet. The boss glanced at a few people curiously before nodding to them:

"Nice weather, a few people."

"What do you want?"

Fang Yu also nodded in response. "We want to borrow a place, just three glasses of water."

The boss was a somewhat kind middle-aged man, and smiled when he heard this: "I recognize you, you are contestants, I heard that your next opponent is very strong, you want to borrow a place to practice, right?" Wait—"

He shook his round body, returned to the bar and went to get a few silver cups, put them in front of the three of them, and poured tea: "It's free today, feel free." ”

Fang Yu hurriedly thanked the other party.

The boss smiled and waved his hand, then stepped aside to watch the three of them practice.

Fang Yu then asked Dill and Cui Yu to sit down. The two also looked at him with a little doubt, although they did have some unrealistic illusions about the champion in their hearts, but the two were more curious about what method he planned to use to get them to defeat the Elite.

Fang Yu took out the materials that had been prepared and placed them on the table one by one, there were not many things, just a few pieces of copper, an alloy ingot, a few gems, and some semi-finished parts, gears and the like.

He counted it and confirmed that it was correct, then he raised his head and said to the two of them: "Actually, in the field you are good at, you are all very talented, not necessarily much worse than the people of ELite, the so-called genius, sometimes just more experience than you." Cui Yu: You are in crystal and delicate crafting, and Dill is in materials science and potions. ”

"But time is limited at the moment, so we have to choose a few tricks. In the next round, we'll be disabling large devices, choosing Crystal Crafting and Wizards, and we'll have to prepare an extra Potions in case they disable both. ”

"Dill, your learning ability is stronger than Cui Yu's, so it's up to you to prepare these two."

Although Cui Yu was a little unconvinced when he heard this, his lips moved and he still didn't make a sound.

Dill listened and nodded quietly.

Both of them were actually a little surprised in their hearts, it turned out that the other party had not been idle these days, but had been quietly observing them, and their characteristics were not a secret in the team.

But the other party is just a teammate who has joined them for less than a week, and he also knows their personal abilities clearly.

As everyone knows, there is no difficulty for Fang Yuan, all kinds of alchemists, some have been famous for a long time, and some are still active in the second world, he doesn't know how many he has seen, personal characteristics, to put it bluntly, is just a bias in skill investment.

It's easy to tell from some usage habits.

Fang Yu continued: "Next, I want to teach you how to make Sensitive Burst Plug-ins, Wind Deviation Crystals and Magic Penetration Elixirs, due to time constraints, you don't need to understand the principles, you only need to go through these three types of production processes. ”

"You only have half an hour, and whether you can beat the Elite depends on how much you can learn from the process."

Both of them were a little stunned.

"But I'll make these things......" Cui Yu finally couldn't help but ask.

"Mr. Ed," Dill whispered, "there are no elemental crystals in the material. ”

Fang Yu replied calmly, "I know. ”

He raised his right hand and swiped it slightly, like a golden firelight, blooming on the dark fingertips of the pride of the lonely king.

A golden magic circle, under his light gesture, flew out, suspended in mid-air, shining. "But what I'm going to teach you is a different method," Fang Yu calmly watched as the golden circle turned into ashes, he shook it with his hand, and a dark crystal appeared in the palm of his hand.

Not far away.

The owner of the café watched the scene with his mouth wide open.

This and this, out of nothing!? There is such alchemy?

……

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
