Merlin Avery asked for the most basic alchemy materials, which should not be lacking in any laboratory. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 But the two men waited for ten minutes before they saw the rebel members who had gone to the warehouse to collect their materials return empty-handed, with mixed expressions of distress and embarrassment on their faces.

The gentle smile on the corner of Old Aura's mouth disappeared, "What's the matter?" His face looked a little ugly, and there was a chill in his hoarse voice, "Let me question it, do my words no longer work here?"

The rebel's expression became even more bitter, and he shook his head again and again, "Of course not, Mr. Ola, the leader of Victor personally commanded it, and your words are his orders. ”

"Oh, so Victor's orders didn't work?" Ora blinked, a dangerous smile on his face that had absolutely nothing to do with pleasure.

"Not really, but ...... Alas, I'm sorry, you know, it's very difficult to get alchemy materials due to the blockade of the city-state guards and sheriffs. "The rebels are struggling to find a reason," the head of the lab said...... I mean, Master Satum didn't think even a little material could be wasted, and he didn't agree to let a young apprentice do an experiment with alchemy. ”

Ola tapped his fingers twice on the bench, "Tell me, how much time has this Master Satum been working here?"

"Twelve years, Mr. Ola. ”

"Oh, that's been a long time. Ora nodded, swapping the cigarette in his mouth to the other side, "So how much does he contribute? How many bottles of metal solution a month, or the worst ones?"

The rebels shrunk their necks, not daring to answer. He is a high-level molten gold warrior who is not bad, but he can't compare to the mentor-level Ola at all, and he can't afford to mess with Master Satum, who is in charge of the laboratory in Scrap Iron Town. This master's level of melting is indeed average, but without the metal solution he has configured, no matter how powerful a melting warrior is, he will not be able to exert his strength.

Only after reaching the Mentor level can the Molten Warrior cast his Alchemic abilities by directly catalyzing metal powder, and doing so will cause considerable damage to the body. Metal solutions with neutralizers do not have this disadvantage, and some well-blended, highly pure metal solutions can also enhance the effect of alchemy, prolong the duration of alchemy, and even permanently increase the strength of molten warriors.

Of all the disciplines required for alchemists, alchemy, which concocts a metal solution, is the most popular among molten warriors. However, few people can have a careful mind, precise hands, an iron will, and a strong physique at the same time, so although there are many gold melting warriors who also practice alchemy, there are indeed not many people who can actually learn and succeed.

Ola's alchemy is a desperate alternative. Alchemy allows him to preserve multiple metal solutions in his body, and then activate his alchemic abilities when needed. The only downside is that the metal solution will gradually fail over time, and the more types of metal solutions are stored, the faster they will fail. Even a mentor-level alchemy can only store less than 10 kinds of metal solutions in the body, and the shelf life is only one week.

Seeing the silence of the rebels, a bitter glint finally flashed in Ola's eyes, "I'm going to make you see the joke, man." He patted Avery on the shoulder, "Forget it, I'm very upset to stay here, my mission will be completed in two days, how about coming with me to the rebel headquarters?"

Avery was tempted to refuse.

Several Governors of the Empire once offered a bounty of up to 30,000 gold coins for the exact location of the Rebel headquarters, and it still occupies one of the top 10 difficult missions in the Adventurer's Guild Quest Hall. For Ora's invitation worth 30,000 gold coins, Avery did not feel any longing in his heart, but felt deep fear.

The rebels kept the exact location of their headquarters extremely tight, and even used the most violent methods such as assassination and poisoning without hesitation. Avery knew very well that once he had been to the headquarters of the Resistance, there was no possibility of getting out of it.

"Mr. Ola, isn't it true that only after many vettings and tests, and with a veteran rebel as a guarantor, can you be qualified to go to the headquarters?" Avery shrugged his shoulders in mock regret, "I'm afraid I don't have this qualification yet, right?"

"I can vouch for you, man, my old fellow still has some weight in his words. Aura smiled heartyly and heroically, "The rebels are in dire need of fresh blood, especially for people like you who have the same ability and potential, and making an exception is nothing." ”

"Is that fair? Breaking the mold for a hairy kid to turn a blind eye to the efforts of a senior member. A sharp voice protested indignantly.

Avery turned his head to see several alchemist apprentices in plain gray robes walking briskly into the laboratory, surrounded by a tall, lanky middle-aged man with gloomy eyes.

The middle-aged man's robe was a pure black, and the sparkling light flickered on his chest, faintly forming the emblem of an hourglass and a crystal flask—a sign that he was an alchemist with an official title, whose primary skill was alchemy, and he was often referred to as a pharmacist.

"I'm Satum, Dodge Satum, the head of the alchemy lab in Scrap Iron. The middle-aged man shook his head in greeting, and his gaze swept contemptuously over young Merlin Avery and landed on Ora's body, and his tone became a little more humble.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ola, but I have an important alchemy experiment that can't be interrupted, so I didn't come to meet you in the first place. ”

"It's okay, it's a secret operation and my identity isn't public. Ora replied in a flat tone, "Pharmacist Satum, is there anything you can do?"

The middle-aged man's face twisted uncontrollably. As the only apothecary in Scrap Iron, his status has always been respected, and even the leader of Victor is known as "Master Satum", and Ola's unapologetic look clearly pierces his heart, which has been soaked in the venom of arrogance and arrogance for a long time.

"It's been too long since anyone else joined the alchemy lab in Scrap Iron Town, and as the person in charge, I'm very anxious. Satum shook his head and sighed as he walked to the experimental table, "I heard that you have brought a promising alchemist apprentice who graduated from the famous Blaufred Academy, and I really can't contain my excitement, and I am eager to meet this newcomer as soon as possible." ”

"Lower your head a little, Satum Apothecary, and you can see that the newcomer has been standing in front of you for a while. Ola pouted. Within the Resistance, this powerful molten gold warrior is notoriously difficult to speak, and even the high-ranking old guys in the headquarters don't get a good look from him.

Seeing Satum's ridiculous expression, the disdain on Ola's face could hardly be hidden, and he turned to Avery and said in an enthusiastic tone, "Since the experiment can't be done, man, do you want to have a drink with me?" I still have half a bottle of distilled soju, and if you drink it with some gunpowder, it's like swallowing a mouthful of lava." ”

Satum's eyes darkened with anger, but he at least remembered what he really meant. Before Avery could nod his head to leave, he suddenly took a step forward and clapped his hands on the bench.

"As a graduate apprentice of Blaufry College, young man, pure iron solution is not a difficult thing, is it?"

Merlin Avery frowned, he had a premonition that new trouble was coming, but it was not a good idea to back down. "Of course not, senior, I also learned about thirty-one recipes for concocting metal solutions. ”

Satum's face became more and more gloomy, due to his limited talent, he could not be admitted to Blaufry College, and could only follow an elderly pharmacist to do miscellaneous work, and it took more than ten years of hard work to learn no more than ten metal solution formulas.

"Thirty-one, that's a lot, but how many advanced formulas are there?" the middle-aged pharmacist raised his voice, "I like to mentor talented young people the most, so that you can avoid a lot of detours, do you want to follow me?" All the materials and formulas in my laboratory can be open to you. ”

The Alchemy Instructor at Blauffry College does teach dozens of formulas for metal solutions, but that is by no means accessible to fifth-year apprentices who have not yet been divided, and some of these advanced formulas must be exchanged for credits or dissertation contributions. However, Merlin Avery found a fragment of a alchemy book on the ratio of alloy solutions in the college library, and there were seven or eight recipes for advanced alloy solutions, and almost all of them had been lost for a long time.

Avery had tried to make a few high-grade solutions, and he was pleasantly surprised by the fact that he had not only succeeded in concocting a high-grade alloy solution, but had also successfully purified it twice, bringing the purity of the metal solution to the standard of a qualified product.

Being able to concoct a qualified high-grade metal solution meant that Avery already had the qualifications of an official apothecary, and he could wear an hourglass and flask insignia on his chest by simply going to any of the Alchemists' Guilds to pass the test.

It's a pity that Avery has a huge gap in his knowledge of melting metal, he has learned how to mix primary metal solutions, and he can successfully mix advanced alloy solutions, but he still has no knowledge of intermediate metals and intermediate alloy solutions, which are also the metal solutions that are most demanded by molten metal warriors.

Pharmacists who can only concoct primary and advanced metal solutions are a complete joke to tell.

Seeing Satum's pharmacist smile on his visibly ill-intentioned face, Avery scratched his hair and made his tone as sincere and credible as possible, "That's great, senior, I've been worried that after I leave the academy, there will be no one to guide me to continue my studies?"

Satum was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Avery to answer like this. "Didn't this hairy boy perceive my hostility?" the thought flashed through his mind, but then he was stammered and red-faced by a barrage of questions.

"Senior, I would like to know a few precautions for preparing a red copper-lead-amalgam solution, as well as the correct purification method of the Mithril solution, the former I only succeeded once, and the latter I always waste too much Mithril powder. I remember that the Mithril solution prepared by the academy tutor is very pure, and the consumption of Mithril powder is very small, do you know how to proceed?"

Merlin Avery's questions were quick and clear, and they were met with nearly two minutes of embarrassing silence. Satum endured and endured, and finally waved his hand angrily, sweeping away several bottles and cans on the laboratory table to the ground.

"Are you deliberately embarrassing me? Young man, it seems that I have to teach you a lesson and let you know how to respect your seniors!"
