Chapter 3 Enthusiasts and Dream Builders from the Rising Sun

What caught my eye was a ...... dressed in a full moon-white alchemist's hooded robe Maiden, at least in terms of voice.

Jiang Haoyu only now judged that there was a reason for this Ling Xichen's gender. In the previous assessment, Ling Xichen's hood was covered to his chest. Moreover, she is different from Jiang Haoyu and several other alchemists who should show off and explain the explanation. In the process of assessment, she strictly abided by the national alchemist assessment rules "reduce unnecessary language introductions", and even opened her mouth every time. Jiang Haoyu is curious, but he can't throw the heat detection array on others in public. This caused Jiang Haoyu to know nothing about Ling Xichen's gender.

The hood was pulled open by a pair of neat and clean milky white gloves, the blonde hair slid down from it, and the face of a pretty oriental girl was set off by the Jinhua headdress on the top of her head like a fairy.

[I knew that I was not the only one, it turned out that her real name was Ling Xichen.] Jiang Haoyu's hand shook and almost dropped the hilt of the sword in his hand to the ground.

"Your Excellency, is there anything special about me?" Ling Xichen's gaze was like a sharp steel cone, looking directly at the president.

[According to the rules that determine hair color and skin color based on the bloodline of the steel world and other special personal traits, it is unlikely that our bunch of "dream builders", who can be said to be the pride of the sky, will have normal hair color.] If it appears according to the normal human hair color, it is not normal. That being said, I was shocked today. Dream Builder Project, Abnormal Spirits Research Group, Team Leader "Candle Heart"! Jiang Haoyu glanced at the wrist of the girl next to him without a trace.

Sure enough, as Jiang Haoyu expected, a silver-faced and white-veined watch was the same as the one on Jiang Haoyu's wrist. In the center of the dial is a candle flame outlined by a creamy white pattern.

"It's nothing, it's just that Miss Ling doesn't seem to be from our Amestris. It is not traditional alchemy. The President's eye, which seemed to be about to close at any moment, was now completely open. looked at Ling Xichen with interest.

"Yes," Ling Xichen's gaze still didn't take away.

[Sure enough, my skin color and hair color will cause unnecessary trouble...... Ling Xichen thought helplessly.

"So, why did you become our national alchemist?" The president asked. At the same time, in the underground space of the Grand Presidential Palace more than 700 meters away, a middle-aged man with blonde hair and golden eyes slowly opened his closed eyes.

"The remnants of the country are not worth mentioning. As for the other questions, I can't answer that it's my privacy. Thank you for your understanding. Ling Xichen's sharp gaze gradually softened, and he began to pay attention to his surroundings. She knew that the president's next questioning had nothing to do with her.

[Fortunately, I'm more familiar with the plot of Steel.] This hurdle is finally over. Wait, what's on that Jaslyn's wrist? Ling Xichen's heart, which had just been put down, hung up again.

For no other reason, a breeze had just slipped in through the open gate of the military headquarters. The bell sleeves of Jiang Haoyu's upper body folded robe were blown up, revealing the silver-faced red-patterned watch that represented the representatives of his five dream builders.

"Do you have the same answer as her?" The president turned to Jiang Haoyu and raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, Your Excellency. However, I am not a remnant of the country. Jiang Haoyu replied.

"You can go to the logistics office of the Grand Presidential Palace to pick up your National Alchemist Silver Pocket Watch, Certificate, and Uniform. Yaslen, you need to receive an extra set of relics from the Alchemist of the previous generation who completed the alchemy of space, the complete set of relics of the "Alchemist of the Domain", and a silver pocket watch. I hope you can contribute more to Amestris in the future. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency." The two responded in unison.

……

The Grand Presidential Palace is located more than 700 meters away from the military headquarters. The façade is made of marble and is five meters thick and eleven meters high. There are wall columns every ten meters, there is only one entrance, and the interior is above all a symbolic moat. There is a diagonal upward, enclosed windowless, with a trolley resembling a roller coaster and a staircase passage leading to the building above. On a marble platform more than 40 meters above the ground in the moat, there is an irregularly shaped building with five floors high and 10 meters each, and a garden behind it. In front of the building is a square about the size of four football fields. In the middle of the square there is a circular three-tiered fountain that is extremely disproportionate to the size of the Grand Presidential Palace. The diameter of the fountain is four meters, the height is three meters, and there are no special sculptures. On the periphery of the square, there are three rows of manicured plant fences. On all four sides of the square, there are three rows on each side, and there are openings for people to walk on at each corner. The main purpose of the Grand Presidential Palace is to serve as an office, and the secondary purpose is for the President to live. The main role of the military department was to discuss and educate officers and alchemists.

On the second floor of the Grand Presidential Palace, Jiang Haoyu and Ling Xichen successfully got the items they needed to receive, and were leisurely walking towards the National Alchemist. However, a little change happened along the way.

Ling Xichen casually placed his uniform and certificate on the bookshelf next to the corridor. At the same time, facing Jiang Haoyu, he bowed deeply, "Asian representative, good quill teacher." Ling Xichen said respectfully. For Ling Xichen, this was a very natural thing. Jiang Haoyu is different from the representatives of other continents, he is truly limitless. This leads to the fact that he can teach a lot to others with his breaks. Over time, in the eyes of other "dream builders", his seniority changed from peer to elder, from Asian representative to teacher. Although Jiang Haoyu was aware of it, he didn't hate this feeling, so he let it be.

"Hey, don't do that, don't bow to me ninety degrees. I'm not your parent, so I can't accept such a great gift from you. Jiang Haoyu said with a smile as he gently pulled Ling Xichen up.

"Sorry, I overreacted." Ling Xichen responded with a smile. Overreaction is a meme among the "dream builders". It comes from Jiang Haoyu's words to the person who bowed to him for the first time, "Friend, you overreacted yesterday. ”

The story goes like this; There is a person who participated in the Dream Builder Assessment, and his psychological quality examiner is Jiang Haoyu. This person's reaction is basically on the top of the qualified line, and if someone else is replaced, it is likely that this person will be given a disqualified. But Jiang Haoyu is different, if he passes, he passes, so he passes. In the afternoon of the same day, before the examiners were about to make a second evaluation of the candidates, that person found Jiang Haoyu and thanked him. Jiang Haoyu nodded and left because he was in a hurry to submit the evaluation. The next day, when the final evaluation was made, that person's self-confidence reached a peak. Jiang Haoyu happened to find him at that time, and came to say, "Friend, you overreacted yesterday." That person's self-confidence collapsed in an instant. And Jiang Haoyu left without looking back because he was in a hurry to make the final evaluation. As a result, the next day, the candidate's lounge kept echoing with the man's voice, "Overreact, overreact......

In the end, the person still passed the assessment, but the matter spread more and more among the dream builders and became a meme.

……

The two had already arrived at their future boss's office, the "Central City Military Department of the National Alchemist".

The two looked at each other and knocked on the door at the same time.

A slight knock on the door clearly entered the room through the wooden door.

"Please come in." A steady adult bass.

Pushing the door in, I was greeted by an adult man with slightly long black hair on his head, wearing a blue military uniform with the rank of colonel, and a handsome face that stood out in the afternoon sun.

"Hello, Roy Mastan." The two said in unison.

"Hello, Jin Alchemist, Alchemist of the Sky," Roy Mastan said.
