Chapter 40: Constrained
Early on Saturday morning, Yi Chen practiced alchemy in the living room for another half an hour, and almost fell to the ground tired.
If you want to be better than others, you can't do it without putting in the effort.
In fact, if there is a magic potion to nourish the body, let alone half an hour, he can hold on for four or five hours. Back then, in the Mogren Continent, the reason why he was able to become a legendary mage was because of this kind of toughness!
After his criticism and education, Hazel had completely broken off the idea of using magic crystals to assist in cultivation, and when he returned home, he began to harden the ice condensation model in a painstaking way, and he has not come out until now.
Krypton can't be gold, it can only burst the liver, this is an eternal truth.
Yi Chen gently opened the door and took a look, and saw that she was sitting on the ground with her snake tail crossed, her eyes closed, her eyebrows locked, her little face pale, and she was still a little distressed in her heart.
Anyway, he is also a caring and good person, and although he is usually a little harsh on little Naga, it is all for the purpose of training her. It doesn't matter if others believe it or not, he himself believes it anyway.
"Still too short of money......"
Yi Chen entered the bathroom, and while taking a shower, he thought about why he was a legendary mage, and he was reduced to the point that he couldn't even afford a magic crystal?
Do you want to take some more spell models out and buy them?
But he soon dispelled this idea, and selling too much would also attract the attention of others...... I don't have enough strength and status, there are too many things to worry about, and I can't let go of many things to do.
It's not cowardice, it's prudence, it's the valuable experience of being able to live and become a legendary mage in his previous life.
Fortunately, it won't be long before he can get out of this dilemma, whether it is joining the pharmacist's guild or entering the newly emerging secret realm, if nothing else, he can get a lot of wealth.
Originally, Yi Chen was going to take advantage of the two-day holiday to go to the consignment center to buy some things, but Hai Rouer was at a critical time of cultivation, so he couldn't leave, so he could only give up.
Idle is idle, he sat on the sofa in the living room and began to meditate.
Speaking of which, if you can take some auxiliary items such as hallucinogenic herbs and psychotropic potions before meditating, you will have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort, and you will be promoted to a senior apprentice faster......
Money again.
Soon, the day passed. During this period, except for going to Ning Xiaoyu's house for dinner, Yi Chen never left here, and even if he ate, he solved it as quickly as possible.
Seeing him like that, Ning's mother sighed from the bottom of her heart: What a good child who works hard.
At about nine o'clock in the evening, Yi Chen gently opened the door again to take a look at Hai Rouer's situation, and found that her face became even paler, and she didn't know if she could still support her spirit.
This is actually a kind of training, and this experience will inevitably become her precious spiritual wealth in the future.
The morning dawn is new, and it's a new day.
Yi Chen finished his meditation and rubbed his swollen temples.
After a week of meditation instead of sleep, he had gotten used to it, at least not as groggy and dozing off as he had been a few days ago.
He was about to go to the living room to practice alchemy for half an hour, but just when he opened the door, he found Hazel standing in the doorway.
"What are you doing standing here, is it because you have successfully solidified the Ice Condensation Model and want to surprise me?" Yi Chen asked with a smile. Counting the time, it's almost time to finish.
However, Hazel's mouth suddenly deflated, and tears began to roll down her bloodshot eyes.
"I'm sorry Your Excellency Yi Chen, I ...... I failed again, woo woo, I almost succeeded, woo woo woo ......"
Hazel was very sad and threw herself into Yi Chen's arms and cried.
Failed?
Yi Chen was slightly stunned, it was indeed a pity that he persisted for so long and finally failed. However, this is also the norm, and all model mages have this experience to some extent, but it is not true.
For such a thing, he was very open-minded, and he did not mean to blame Hazel. Seeing her crying so sadly, she couldn't help but comfort: "It's okay, it's just a small failure, just work hard in the future." You must be mentally exhausted right now, so go and rest first. ”
"But, obviously, it was almost successful...... Woo woo, Hazel is very useless, she will never go home, woo woo woo ......"
She seemed to have gotten into the tip of a bull's horn, and after listening to Yi Chen's comfort, she cried even more sadly.
Yi Chen's expression was a little dazed, it seemed that someone had cried like this in his arms before, and had also said something like "I'll never go home", but it was not a little girl, but a girl......
What's her name? Forget it, if you can't think of it, you don't want to, anyway, in the end, she went home, and she didn't suffer any punishment, and she became the queen of the elves......
Speaking of which, she was still Yi Chen's most ideal wife candidate, gentle, considerate, well-behaved, and kind......
After experiencing the darkest day in his life, Yi Chen also tried to redeem her, bravely entered the Elven Forest for five consecutive days, wanting to see her, even if he was beaten by the great sages and high priests of the elf clan, he did not give up, after all, admitting mistakes requires an attitude of admitting mistakes.
It's a pity that after five attempts, she refused to see herself, even though she had rushed outside the Temple of Nature, only one door away from her......
After trying for five days, Yi Chen knew that she had completely died to herself, so she left gloomily.
Recalling these past events, he couldn't help but sigh, "When I was young...... It's stupid. ”
Hai Rouer cried for a long time, and her mood had calmed down a bit, and then she found that Yi Chen's eyes were sad, and she couldn't help but be a little moved, "Is Your Excellency Yi Chen feeling sorry for me?" I...... I stopped crying. ”
Yi Chen's thoughts were pulled back at this time, and then he smiled faintly at her, "Go to the pet beast space to rest, life is still very long, and there is no need to take temporary failure to heart." ”
"His Excellency Yi Chen is really a gentle and good person!" Hazel praised heartily.
After taking Hazel back into the pet beast space, Yi Chen began to exercise his physique, this time he exercised for ten more minutes, and he was very tired.
After taking a shower, as originally planned, he got on his bike and headed to the consignment center.
The consignment center has actually developed a mobile APP, which can browse and shop on the mobile phone, but because it is not far away, he is still used to buying in person. Unless the things he wants to buy are not available locally and need to be mailed from other places, he will consider placing an order online.
The consignment center was still as magnificent as ever, Yi Chen casually walked around the first floor, and couldn't help but stop at the window where magic crystals were sold.
Seeing that there were fifty grams of magic crystals for sale inside, he hesitated for a moment, but he still decided to buy one.
He didn't plan to buy ready-made magic scrolls and magic potions, he could save a lot of money by only buying some leather paper and magic materials to refine them himself.
After refining it, use it yourself, and no one will know.
