The headquarters of the Tianlan Potions Masters Guild has a huge castle-like complex on the Wangdu Third Ring Island, which is a place where potions masters like to gather.

Here, as long as there is enough money, there is no shortage of potion resources at all.

Potions masters can find almost all potion recipes in the entire Black Sea, except for those golden recipes in the collection of big families, from Sequence 9 to Sequence 5, various ranks of war, magic, herding, and thorn, black iron, silver, and all kinds of qualities.

This castle is also the largest distribution center for potions materials in the entire Black Sea, and potions masters can get the most complete supply of materials, even if they are rare materials, they can also issue bounties in the system within the Potions Guild, and naturally there are mercenaries who will pick up the search task, and they can be found soon.

The Potions Guild also has the only two remaining five-star Potions Masters in the Black Sea, the President of the Black Sea Potions Guild, Voss Dyer, and the Vice President Sid Sophier.

......

"I remember the player in the game who got the 'Weaver Gem', and it seems that this is the mission that was triggered here..."

Raymond is familiar with the Potions Guild Headquarters Castle.

This is the largest place in the Tianlan King Capital to release tasks intensively, and a large number of material search tasks are released here every day, which also makes him familiar with almost every house number in this ancient castle.

"It should be here, 56 Oak Street, the Knox family, the oldest potions master family in Tianlan..."

Now that he had stopped by the Potions Guild headquarters, Raymond was ready to do the hidden mission of the "Weaver's Gem". After all, this is about the holy book in the hearts of all potions masters, the handwritten version of the "Potions Secret Book" by the ten-star Potions Grand Master Igris Seintia.

When he got the gem before, he was afraid that he would forget all kinds of complicated mission details and might miss the treasure. But now... He didn't think much about it at all, and was directly ready to go to the door to negotiate.

The complicated and extremely complicated task in the game, but in Raymond's eyes now... Hehe, that is, try not to draw the knife and not draw, let's be reasonable...

Strength gave him the courage to speak.

He was only now beginning to understand why the pirates of the Golden Tooth always liked to solve problems in a brutal way. Because I have to admit that for the vast majority of problems, solving them in a "rough" way is the most efficient way.

He doesn't have that much time to talk to people about all the bells and whistles.

......

Raymond had just walked to the door, and was about to knock on the door, when suddenly his cochlea moved.

Apparently there was an argument in it,

Listening to the voice, it looks like two half-old men who are not too old.

"Aldrich, why are you doing this? Now the royal family has made it clear that if you don't take their arrangement, you'll have the Potions Guild expel you from the guild... When the time comes, the Tianlan royal family will give an order, who will dare to shelter you in the entire Black Sea? Out of the Potions Guild, your current status as a war slave has not been washed away, it will be very dangerous! ”

"Senior brother, you don't need to say it. I'm never going to make a potion for the Salo royal family! ”

"You can't bear to let your potions skills go to waste? I know you've broken through to a five-star potionsman... Did you know that if you spread the news, you would immediately become the vice president of the Potions Guild..."

"Hehe, the current union has completely changed its taste! Not only did President Voss become a groveling servant of the royal family, but the entire Potions Guild became a profit-making machine for merchants. Hum... You don't know about the Giant Whale Chamber of Commerce's reliance on the Potions Guild to monopolize the Black Sea Potions market, right? ”

"It is only natural for a businessman to make a profit... What does this mean for us potionsmen? Aren't we still refining medicine and refining medicine, and experimenting when we need to experiment? ”

"The words taught by the teacher back then are like a beacon in the night, and they still warn me day and night in my heart! The teacher once said that the duty of the Potions Master is to make the human beings struggling to survive on this sea become stronger and have a stronger ability to survive and reproduce! They have a monopoly on raising the price of potions, so that the vast majority of civilians simply cannot afford to buy super-advanced potions... This mercenary approach has gone against the original intention of the teacher! That group of people also lost the pride and meaning of being a divine profession as potions masters! ”

"Aldrich, how can I not know my father's teachings? But do you think you and I can change anything? ”

"I can't change anything! But what I can do is never go along with them! ”

“...”

......

"The teacher didn't die!"

Raymond listened for a while, and his face became more and more surprised. When he heard the name "Aldrich", who didn't guess who was arguing inside?

This old man is his Potions Initiation Teacher, the Dean of Potions of Phillip Academy!

Ever since he watched the blind old man die in front of his eyes two years ago, Raymond realized his regret. In this world, how lucky I am to meet so many selfless people.

Aldrich, the old man, is one of the few existences who is truly selflessly good to him and treats him like a son.

Listening to the familiar loud voice, at this moment, Raymond felt that his eyes were a little moist.

......

"Aldrich, where are you going?"

"Drink!"

"What do you drink in broad daylight?!"

“...”

The quarrel in the house was coming to an end.

Raymond was about to knock on the door, when the fiery old man in the house happened to open the door, and the two almost bumped into each other.

"Oh! Sorry, young man, I almost hit you. ”

Aldridge was furious about to go out, not even seeing who was in front of him, and he didn't intend to take another look. He turned his face to the room and shouted, "Boggs, someone is looking for you!" ”

Raymond looked at Aldrich, who was obviously much older, and his voice trembled with excitement, and shouted, "Teacher." ”

"Huh?"

Aldrich had just gotten out the door with a look of strangeness on his face. Could this "teacher" be the old guy named Boggs? That's not right... Didn't Boggs have only one female disciple? How do you hear this young man calling himself?

He glanced up, and a face that seemed slightly familiar came into view.

The first impression was not bad.

looks very handsome, but unfortunately he is blind in one eye, and there are some corrosive and scald scars on his face. The temperament is quite calm, and he should not be very old, but it looks like he has gone through a lot of hardships. Well... It seems that there are two points like the disciple named Raymond in the past.

If that disciple hadn't died, he would probably be so high.

Aldrich only skimmed for a moment, sighed in his heart, and prepared to leave.

Raymond saw that the old man didn't recognize him, and he shouted again, "Teacher, it's been a long time." ”

"Huh?"

Aldrich was stunned, this time he was sure that the young man was calling himself.

He suddenly seemed to realize something, and when he looked back closely, a pair of cloudy eyes appeared shock.

He trembled and pointed at Raymond, "You... You are..."

Raymond smiled and nodded, "I'm Raymond, teacher." ”

"Are you really Raymond?"

Aldrich's expression stiffened for a moment in shock, then stretched out and immediately turned into ecstasy. He grabbed Raymond's arm with both hands, looked at it carefully, and said excitedly, "Are you still alive?!" ”

"Well, teacher, I'm still alive."

Raymond looked at the tearful old man, and he was also extremely excited.

The master and apprentice were like old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years, and they hugged each other excitedly at the door of the Knox family's ancestral house.

At this time,

A red-bearded old man in the room walked out, he was the "senior brother" who had just argued with Aldrich, the current head of the Knox family, the oldest potions family in the Black Sea, a four-star potions master, Bogus Knox.

He had just heard Aldrich shouting, and he thought that he had a friend coming to the door, but when he came out, he actually saw that the old man was actually hugging a young man.

"He still has acquaintances? Could it be the old man of Philip's former collar? ”

Boggs looked suspicious.

In the past two years, he had never seen his junior brother so excited. Since he was captured in the last war, his junior brother is like a pool of dead ashes, borrowing alcohol all day long to kill his sorrows, looking lost and depressed. If it weren't for himself, this old guy wouldn't even have the desire to live. But now... This old man suddenly seemed to be ten years younger, and he was so excited that he was still in tears?

Who is this young man? How could this guy be so excited?

Could it be his son?

No, didn't his son die in the war?

At this time, without waiting for Boggs to speculate, Aldrich excitedly introduced: "Senior Brother Boggs, this is my closed disciple, Raymond!" ”

Boggs was a little puzzled, "Your disciple? ”

This guy died and his son didn't feel so excited, and now a disciple can use it like this? I'm afraid it's not an illegitimate child, right?

After that,

Aldridge turned to Raymond and introduced, "Raymond, this is Boggs, my senior brother, and his father, Master Knox, is my teacher. The Knox lineage is also the oldest Potions Wizard lineage family in the Black Sea! ”

"Hello, Mr. Boggs."

Raymond, of course, knows the details of Boggs. But he didn't expect such a coincidence, Aldrich was actually a Potions apprentice of the Knox family.

Boggs's face was a little strange, no matter how he looked at the faces of the two, he didn't look like father and son, "Since you are Aldrich's disciple and not an outsider, let's go into the room and sit." ”

......

"Teacher, you've been at Mr. Boggs' house for the past two years?"

"Hmm. If it weren't for the protection of my senior brother in the past two years, I'm afraid that a stubborn old man like me would be killed by someone from the Tianlan royal family. ”

"What about them, my wife?"

"They were all killed in the war..."

“...”

Boggs listened to Raymond's master and apprentice for a long time, and his face was a little strange. First of all, he still felt that the young man named Raymond in front of him was a little arrogant, and he didn't speak big or small, so he actually called his junior brother "old man"? I thought it was an illegitimate child, but then I saw that Aldrich himself was not a teacher in his apprentice, hooking shoulders and backs, and the two seemed to be old friends, and they often talked about the old days.

This intimacy is like the behavior of an old friend, and it makes people feel that they can't see through their relationship.

said that he was a disciple, but he was too affectionate; said that he was an illegitimate child, and the relationship was too greasy.

Chatting and chatting, Boggs actually listened to Aldrich's old and uncultivated guy actually wanted to take his apprentice to the Fengyue place!

Hearing the following words, he was sure that the young man in front of him was definitely not the illegitimate son of his junior brother.

Aldrich said with an excited face: "Let's go, let's go have a drink!" I'll tell you that there is a 'Musket and Rose Tavern' in Wangdu, the wine is very good, and the teacher will take you to see it! ”

“...”

When Raymond heard this, he didn't know how to answer.

He just went to this tavern last night to make a big fuss, and now he still goes?

Moreover, if you are a teacher, won't your conscience hurt if you take your disciples to that kind of place?

At this time, Boggs finally couldn't help it, for fear that this sassy old man would have some bad ideas.

He hurriedly said, "Aldrich, don't think about it! The Musket Rose Tavern is closed! ”

"Huh? Closed? ”

Aldrich looked puzzled and said, "Isn't that tavern the property of the eldest prince, who can have the ability to close it?" ”

"Didn't you read today's paper?"

Boggs shook his head and sighed, "The assassin 'ghost' made a big fuss in the Musket Rose Tavern last night, and the eldest prince was assassinated!" ”

"What? The Great Prince was also killed? Did the 'ghost' do it again? ”

Aldrich suddenly felt a little messy in his head and rubbed his temples, "I probably drank too much last night, and now my head is still a little dizzy." ”

"Although the eldest prince was not killed directly by the 'ghost', he must be inseparable from him. See for yourself..."

Boggs took out the newspaper in the cabinet, put it on the table, and said, "The latest reward order for the Navy has been posted today, and the bounty amount of the 'ghost' has reached 30 million quarks. His identity was also investigated by the people of the Military Intelligence Department, saying that it was the apprentice of Sodros's big disciple 'Blind' Eriksson, and the weapon was still the famous weapon [Sakura]..."

"My bounty has reached 30 million?" Raymond looked at the bounty portrait in the newspaper that printed his demonic status, and didn't know whether to be happy or worried.

In the game, if any player can have such an exaggerated bounty in the Black Sea, the tail should be raised to the sky, which is a proof of strength. But in the real world, the higher the bounty amount, the more attention the world government navy will pay attention to, and all kinds of bounty hunters are ready to move...

"What?! You say the 'ghost' is the apprentice of the blind Eriksson? ”

When Aldrich heard this, he seemed to have been doused with a basin of ice water, and he immediately woke up from drowsiness.

A touch of shock instantly appeared on his face, and he slowly turned his gaze to Raymond beside him.
