Isabella asked, "Apprentice hell?

"The problem that alchemy apprentices will encounter, for a period of time, the state is extremely poor, nothing is going well, nothing is good!"

"Oh, I see, the low tide is not as scary as hell, is it?"

Riley shook her head: "Alchemy is the most intolerable for sloppiness, any small detail in any link can lead to the loss of previous efforts, even in the academy, with the guidance of a mentor, there are still setbacks and blows every year and voluntarily drop out." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Their confidence has completely collapsed, and some of them have a particularly strong self-esteem and choose to commit suicide!"

"Huh?"

"My brother has a lot of strength and a flexible mind, but this is the first time that such a strict alchemy experiment has been done, and I can't help him operate it!"

"How is he now?"

"It's not a big problem right now, and I'm worried if we continue to make mistakes...... We should talk to George about what he wants to do!"

Isabella's brow furrowed, but she immediately shook her head slightly: "I believe that Dake will be able to solve the current difficulty!"

Duck's brow was furrowed as well, and he finished his preparations with three clicks and five divisions, and as he had done the first, he turned on the furnace and stared intently at the rushing liquid level in the pipe.

It's here!

Three snaps, three valves close in turn! exactly like the first time!

Duck shook his fist fiercely: "It's done!"

"Failed. ”

George's voice was like a winter wind, freezing Duck's fist swing in the air.

"How come?" Before Duck could speak, Riley was anxious and stepped over, "Obviously...... Ahh

Something was wrong with the third pipe, the raised vertex of the liquid level, just protruding a little bit from the green area, about the distance between two strands of hair.

Dark's breathing became cloudy, "How so, how can this be? I looked very carefully, very carefully! I did exactly the same as the first time!" By the end, he almost roared.

Isabella couldn't bear it: "Dark—"

"No, brother, you're wrong!

"Where am I wrong! You say, where am I wrong!"

"Your mentality! You've been thinking about the first time, right? You've been thinking about the first success, right? Your technique is wrong, your fingers are stiff and deformed! Are you convinced?"

Isabella looked in amazement at the two siblings, who were as angry as fighting cocks, and it was the first time she had seen the usually lively and clever Riley speak in such an aggressive and sharp tone.

Two people, four eyes looked at each other without flinching, and there seemed to be a whooshing sound of bows and arrows breaking through the air!

In the end, Dark, who had more arrows, was defeated first: "Well, facts speak louder than words, equipment doesn't lie, just now, it must be, something went wrong." Okay, I'll do it again. ”

Riley shook her head: "You're not fit to do it now, in my experience, it's better to go for a walk, have a drink, take a shower, get a good night's sleep, and come back to do it - you can't run the lab anyway." ”

Duck smiled bitterly: "Then how many bottles can I make in a day?"

"Do what I just said, at most two hours, even if you can't finish it, there is always a finished product, and you can only make a bottle if you don't do it, and you can only make a bottle of it, okay? Besides, this is not an alchemy level exam, and George is not an examiner, so what can you do if you can't do it? Brother, in the original copy of Servetu, your super hatred was so decisive in the back; if you say that you fail, you will fail, and if you lose your conscience, what can you win. How come you can't turn around when you get to this point?"

Duck pondered: "Could it be that I am too heavy on my gain and loss?"

Isabella walked over and said softly: "I don't know what you want to gain or lose, but just now your whole person has changed, and there is a feeling, well, like a gambler, like the more you gamble, the more you lose, the more you lose, the more you want to prove something." ”

Duck was silent.

Riley immediately mended the knife: "Brother, do you think you can become an alchemist by memorizing a copy of the "Hundred Objects Law Chronicle" and a copy of the equipment illustrated book? Then this alchemist is too worthless - I understand, you must think that memorizing a thick book within five days means that you are a genius in this field, and geniuses can't always make low-level mistakes, so your self-esteem can't accept it......"

Duck was a little embarrassed: "Okay! just take a walk, sleep, take a shower, or something, I'm going to wash my face." You wait here! I don't believe you're going to lose to these broken bottles and rotten jars! You wait here! I'll be right back!"

As soon as Duck left, Isabella quietly breathed a sigh of relief: "Looks like it's recovered, thank goodness - Riley, why are you going?"

"One of my brother's legs has entered apprenticeship hell, and his alchemical path will most likely end here. He must be stopped before he ruins himself. I'm going to go to George and ask him to stop this experiment. ”

"How? Wasn't he full of confidence just now?"

Riley sighed: "He called the experimental equipment a broken bottle and a rotten jar, which shows that deep down he has developed a resistance to these, alchemy is a rigorous science, and doing experiments is the most taboo and emotional! He will definitely fail - maybe, now he can't even wash his face!"

"Wait!" Isabella was a little upset, "Do you think George will ruin your brother's path to alchemy? Learning alchemy is your brother's own choice! You should trust him and help him!"

"But he's a complete novice! He doesn't know a lot of things! Giving him such a difficult experiment in the first place would really ruin him!"

"No, I think George has high hopes for your brother. ”

Riley was stunned.

Isabella shook her head: "To be honest, I don't like George, he acts weirdly, has a stubborn temperament, and always isolates himself from others as if he doesn't care about anything. But!" she accentuated, "he could have done nothing and let your brother grow up on his own, starting with the simplest and most basic things, little by little, why would he take the trouble of risking him into apprenticeship hell to arrange such a difficult ordeal?"

She took a breath and continued, "Think about it, if Master Nicholas or Master West had asked your brother to do this, would you still be so excited?"

Riley was silent for a long time, and she exhaled deeply: "I'm sorry, Sister Lala, just now, maybe I was concerned about it." So what should we do?"

"This is his test, and the only thing we can do is pray for him silently. I believe that he will succeed! Don't you have faith?"

After a while, Duck came back, with some unwiped water droplets on his face, and said in a stacked voice: "Come back, come back, have you been ten minutes? dodge, I'm going to start!"

Riley smiled, "Poor mouth and pretentious posture are not a sign of self-confidence!"

"How is that possible? Look at my hand!" Duck grinned as he walked over to the lab table and raised his hand to turn on the furnace, but Riley grabbed her wrist.

"Brother, from now on, you have to forget everything except the experimental process! including the fact that you are a human being! Your body is the experimental table, your brain is the reactor, your hands are the stirrer and the control valve, you are a machine without any emotions!"

Dark's grinning expression disappeared, he silently picked up the towel, carefully wiped the water droplets on his face, and then, after taking a few deep breaths, stood in front of the laboratory table again!
