Chapter 349: Star Alchemy Competition

Seeing Liu Zhe's shocked expression, Bruno was not surprised, there were one hundred and thirty-seven empires participating in the competition, this scale was indeed terrifying, starting from the preliminary competition, there would be at least hundreds of thousands, or even millions of alchemists, to participate!

The scene fell silent for a moment, until Liu Zhe's expression softened, and Bruno spoke up again: "The Star Alchemy Competition, held every three years, is an event hosted by our Alchemy Guild, and the scope of participation includes almost all the empires on the Eternal Demon Continent. You're in luck, and the timing is right, because this year happens to be the year of the Star Alchemy Competition, and the preliminary selection will take place in ten days. Seeing the corners of Bruno's mouth raised, Liu Zhe suddenly said, "I see, it seems that you have been preparing for me to participate in the Star Alchemy Contest from the beginning, right?" The Star Alchemy Contest is such a major event, with Bruno's identity, it is naturally impossible to know the time of the event in the last few days, obviously from the first time he met him, he had already made up his mind to let himself participate in this competition!

At that time, Liu Zhe felt that something was wrong, no matter how terrifying his talent was, the attitude shown by Bruno that day was too enthusiastic, with his status, did he need to be like this?

Liu Zhe is not ignorant of human feelings, he guessed that the reason why Bruno kept promising benefits to himself and threw out obvious solicitations must be because his existence was valuable to him.

Seeing Liu Zhe's relieved expression, Bruno immediately knew that his thoughts had been guessed by him, and Bruno didn't hide it at this time, and said bluntly: "Little guy, you are shrewd, indeed, I was ready to let you participate in this competition from the beginning. I won't hide it from you, our Burning Sun Region has been ranked at the bottom for several sessions, and this matter has caused me to be a little unable to raise my head in the Alchemy Guild in recent years, not to mention those high-level figures, even the general heads of some small regions dare to sneer in secret, I can only say that in the development of alchemy, our Burning Sun Empire is indeed a little backward, even inferior to some small empires. Bruno's face was bitter, the organization of the Alchemy Guild spread throughout the entire continent, and each imperial region would naturally be compared, although Bruno seemed to be the head of a region, but in the entire Alchemy Guild, in addition to the name of the second-level alchemy master, he could also take out the scenery, once he talked about the Alchemy Guild in the Burning Sun Region, it was overshadowed, and even became a laughing stock.

It is undoubtedly a very humiliating thing for a medium-sized empire to lose to some small empires in the development of alchemy.

Thinking of the performance of the Sun Empire in previous years, Bruno couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, but when his eyes looked at Liu Zhe, at this moment, the haze on Bruno's face suddenly dissipated, and he said with a smile: "Hehe, but this year is different, with you as a lucky star, even if we lose in several other projects, the pharmacy project will definitely be able to achieve proud results! Those people will definitely not dare to look down on our Sun Region anymore." "I haven't responded yet, President Bruno, you seem to have decided the contest for me. Liu Zhe chuckled, and when he heard this, Bruno stared at Liu Zhe with his wise eyes, and said in a confident tone, and smiled, "I believe you will compete, don't you?" Guessed by Bruno, Liu Zhe nodded and simply confessed, "That's right. The Star Alchemy Competition, a super event with a total of 137 empires participating, as Bruno said, this is a good opportunity for Liu Zhe to soar to the sky, as long as he can show and win a dazzling ranking in the Star Alchemy Competition, so that fame, status, and power ...... These will naturally follow.

For Liu Zhe, who is now hungry for status, this is an opportunity that cannot be missed!

"Huh. Seeing Liu Zhe nodding, Bruno suddenly laughed.

Liu Zhe said with some concern: "Listening to what you said, is the development of our Burning Sun Empire very backward compared to other empires in terms of alchemy?" Alchemy is actually the manifestation of magic technology, as far as Liu Zhe is concerned, the magic technology of the Burning Sun Empire is not backward at all, talk?? In terms of convenience, it is not even inferior to the earth technology of the previous life, how can such an advanced magic technology lag behind?

"Well...... Bruno looked embarrassed, and said embarrassedly: "On top of the development of alchemy, our Sun Empire is not called backward, but by the standards of a medium-sized empire, the alchemy development of our Sun Empire can only be said to be barely passable, although it can overpower some small empires in this regard, but in medium-sized empires, there is really no confidence to speak... That's not to mention the big empires, even the super empires. Sighing, Trande also said: "Vice President Xi'er, you shouldn't have been to other empires, if you see the magic props used by other empires, then you will know the disadvantages of our Sun Empire in alchemy, in fact, this point can also be seen from our Sun Empire's unfamiliarity with metal ores, many magical magic props, that are rare and rare metal minerals, and after special processing to complete. "Now that I've told you this, I'm afraid you can't imagine it, anyway, you've been in the Alchemy Guild for a long time, and you will naturally realize the vastness of this world in the future, and it's definitely not what you see. With a sigh of relief, Bruno said, "At present, you only need to know about the Star Alchemy Competition, and when you have obtained the qualification to represent the Empire, it is not too late to discuss the strength of other empires, of course, with your strength, you will definitely be able to qualify in the preliminary round." "Yes. Liu Zhe nodded, some things really can't be described in words, only by seeing them with your own eyes can you understand, ending the topic just now, Liu Zhe changed his words and asked, "The preliminary round is ten days later, what preparations do I need to do in advance?" Hearing Liu Zhe's question, Bruno twisted his white beard, thought for a long time, and said loudly: " I'll let Trande handle the entry procedures for you, so there's actually nothing you need to prepare, as long as you come to participate, by the way, the location of the preliminary round is in the Alchemy Guild of various cities, since you belong to the Jinhua Branch, then it is the preliminary round in the Jinhua Branch, and only after passing the preliminary round can you be eligible to go to the general association of the imperial capital for the final selection competition. As soon as Bruno's words fell, Trench continued: "Regarding the entry procedures, President Bruno, you can rest assured, I guessed that there would be such a day, so I have already sent out an application for the qualification of Vice President Schill in advance, and according to the normal process, it will be reviewed within today." Trande's eyes were crooked into the moon, and he looked like he was flattering to Bruno.

In the face of Grande, Bruno didn't have such a good attitude, so he just nodded at this time and praised lukewarmly: "Well, the efficiency is good. "It's a trivial matter, you've won the prize!" However, although it was only a lukewarm compliment, it also made Trund's heart rejoice.

Ignoring the rejoicing Tronde, at this time Blue?? Nuo returned his gaze to Liu Zhe and said, "Now that you have decided to participate, the next place we will meet will be in the Imperial Capital Association. Liu Zhe smiled and said, "This has to wait for me to pass the preliminary round. "Huh. Bruno showed a noncommittal smile, if even Liu Zhe, a fifth-level alchemist, couldn't pass the preliminary round, then the entire Sun Empire probably wouldn't be able to find anyone to represent him.

......

After that, Bruno talked to Liu Zhe a few more words, and it didn't take long for him to get up and leave, saying goodbye to Liu Zhe and Trande, after all, he was the head of the Burning Sun Region, and he usually had a lot of affairs, so he didn't have much time to spend.

After Bruno left, only Liu Zhe and Trande were left in the room, the two presidents and vice presidents of the Jinhua branch.

"Vice President Schill, although the news of your appointment has not yet been officially announced, but within the guild, you are indeed already the vice president of our Jinhua Branch, why don't I take you to see the vice president's room now?" Trande's tone was a little flattering, he knew very well in his heart that although the young man in front of him was only nineteen years old, his future was limitless, and it was definitely the wisest decision to make friends with him now.

Liu Zhe thought for a moment and responded: "I don't think this is necessary for now, President Bruno also said that although I am now the vice president, I still have to trouble you to deal with the usual affairs, besides, I am still a student of the Heavenly Blessing Academy, and I am afraid that I don't have much chance to come here in normal times, so there is naturally no need for that room." "Well, since you said so, then the room thing will be put aside first. Simply throwing things aside, Trande said: "You are now the vice president of our Jinhua branch, there are some things that I have to explain to you first, first of all, welfare, according to the regulations, you can receive 500,000 gold coins every month, and you can use all the alchemy materials below level eight in the guild at will, these materials can only be used for personal alchemy research, and cannot be sold outside, the above two points are the benefits of serving as the vice president, and then there are the regulations of some guilds...... Later, Trund gushed out a lot of rules, such as not revealing guild secrets at will, not abusing the rights of vice president, and going to the Imperial Capital to attend meetings every year...... Wait a minute.

It took dozens of minutes for Liu Zhe to finally write down all what Tronde said, in general, as long as it does not harm the interests of the Alchemy Guild, the position of vice president is still very easy and free, and he usually does not restrict Liu Zhe's behavior.

After saying a long list of regulations, Trande took out the small jade box that had been prepared in advance, handed it to Liu Zhe, and said, "Today is the day when Vice President Xi'er takes office, I don't have any good treasures here to use as a congratulatory gift, only this Red Fire Lingzhi is still quite handy, please accept it, don't give up it." "You're so kind. As he spoke, Liu Zhe did not refuse Trumde's kindness, and at this time, he directly put the small jade box containing the red fire lingzhi into his spatial ring.

Although this Red Fire Lingzhi is not a top-level medicinal material, it is at least worth a first-class gem in the system, Liu Zhe will naturally not be polite, besides, people will say it like this, if he does not accept this gift, he will slap Tronde and not give face.

......

......

"Well, then, I'll take my leave today. After a few polite words with Trande, Liu Zhe saw that there was nothing else important, so he directly said goodbye to Trande and left the Alchemy Guild.
