Chen Rui's calm and calm attitude made Dio's heart feel a little calm, and he hurriedly said: "I have already arranged the room, my lord, please go and rest first, if you need anything, please tell the maid." ”

Although Dio is not capable, he is by no means a fool, and naturally knows that Dark Moon's support for him is not so simple, but now he is using Dark Moon's Liliang to help him win the position of heir.

Once the family is in power, even if he wants to change his mind and turn against Dark Moon, the little lord who is far away in the Fallen Angel Empire can't help it.

"There's no hurry to rest, I'm going to go to the Maker Alliance first. Chen Rui asked Ji Ya, "Ji Ya, do you know the location of the Maker Alliance?"

"Yes. ”

"Without further ado, go now, I'm going to get certified by the Maker first, and then I'll see what happens. ”

"Your Excellency, you've worked hard. Dio hurriedly took out a space ring, "There is a little meaning here, please accept it, and please worry about the rest of the matter." ”

Chen Rui took the space ring, swept his thoughts, and there were black crystal coins in front of him, estimated to be as many as 100,000, worthy of being the eldest young master of the first business family, he made a very generous move, and nodded: "Thank you Mr. Diou for your kindness, I'm welcome." ”

Leaving the courtyard, Chen Rui followed Ji Ya out of the door, got into a light carriage, and headed towards the Maker Alliance.

The Maker Alliance is a well-known organization that has been recognized by the three empires, and together with the Apothecary Alliance, it is collectively known as the Alchemist Alliance, and it does not belong directly to any country, but only has a corresponding organization in the imperial capital of the three empires, which is responsible for various affairs, especially the certification of division and master.

Located in the northern part of the outer city, the Shadow Imperial Capital's Makers' League is a large building that was affected by the Rebellion of Kings and was renovated and rebuilt after Catherine the Great ascended the throne.

Due to the Maker's Contest, it was a very lively place where the lace news of the contest was discussed.

"This time is different from the past, the top three who win will not only be able to get the rare alchemy materials rewarded by the alliance, but also have the qualifications to become the disciples of senior masters!"

Robert, the winner of the contest 10 years ago, seems to be participating again this time. ”

"Last champion, why hasn't he become a master yet?"

"You know what a fart, do you think that the difference between a craftsman and a master is just one word? Countless craftsmen have never been able to touch the threshold of a master in their lives! To be able to go from a senior craftsman to a master in ten years is already a great genius. ”

"I heard that Robert's strength is almost to the master level, and he definitely wants to use this tournament to become famous in one fell swoop, and then certify the master level. ”

"Master Leo's disciple Saviche is an emerging genius in the imperial capital, and this time Master Leo himself is one of the judges, and I think Saviche has great hopes. ”

"I'm still optimistic about Robert Sawiche's appearance of thinking he is the best in the world, I hate it when I look at it, I heard that this guy usually behaves nonsense and offends many people. ”

I just saw Savicee walk in, this man is very small-minded, and it would be troublesome for him to hear it. ”

“......”

There are illustrations in the hall on the first floor, the second floor is the alchemy material store, the third floor is the exchange maker certification on the fourth floor, and the fifth floor is a special place that can only be entered by insiders, and many masters are inside.

Chen Rui and Ji Ya walked all the way up to the fourth floor, there were very few people on the fourth floor, and a succubus who received them asked, "Do both of you want to be certified as an aptor?"

Chen Rui looked at the opening and asked, "I want to go for the certification of the crafter, how do I need to certify?"

"Go down the passage on the left, go all the way in, and after Master Xhosa pays fifty Sombra coins in the most room, he will give you a test of certification. The succubus glanced at his fellow who was more beautiful than himself with some jealousy: "As for this little sister, if you are not a certified person, please wait in the lounge where you enter the passage on the right." ”

Fifty black crystal coins are required to certify an artifact maker? Chen Rui muttered secretly, "Black Merchant", asked Ji Ya to wait in the lounge, and walked straight towards the left passage.

Master Xhosa was an old-looking servant demon who was lazily dozing off, flanked by two assistants. ,

An assistant saw Chen Rui in an apprentice outfit and immediately asked, "Are you here to pass the certification of the crafter?" ”

Chen Rui nodded, took out the prepared haode black crystal coin and handed it over, and after the assistant counted it, he said: "You fill out this form now, and Master Xhosa will give you the content of the certification, and if you pass, the costume and badge of the craftsman will be issued to you."

If you fail, you will not be allowed to take the assessment again within one year. ”

Chen Rui took the form and looked at it, it was nothing more than name, race, age, expertise, etc., which reminded him of another Shijie's job search that had filled out countless resumes After filling out the form with Arthur's information, the assistant woke up Master Xhosa.

"Are you here to participate in the certification?" the Demon Master who was woken up looked a little dissatisfied, and looked at the Great Demon in front of him with slanted sleepy eyes.

Chen Rui, who was a little scared of the exam in college, inevitably nodded a little nervously: "It's the first time I've participated in the certification, and if you don't understand the rules, please forgive the master." ”

"No more nonsense. Master Xhosa yawned, "Answer me three questions first." The first question is, what are the ways to remove the impurities of the garnet?

Chen Rui thought for a while and replied, "There are two ways. ”

The two assistants behind him shook their heads in unison, the first question is the easiest, there are a lot of cyan crystals on the surface of the red garnet that affect the purity, and there are three ways to get rid of them. The standard answers are: 1. Remove directly with a tool, 2. Soak with a stone acid solution, and 3. Use a rare crystal-eating ant to eat.

Chen Rui's answer is completely different from the above three gods, one method is to use flame flux with petrochemical agent, and the second method is to place it in a low-temperature environment, and then use it to purify it with separation liquid and oxalic acid.

Master Xhosa's lazy eyes flashed slightly, and he actually nodded: "That's right." ”

The two assistants in the back were all surprised, although the two of them were not top senior craftsmen, but they were also certified formal craftsmen, how could they answer wrong, could there be a problem with that standard answer?

Master Xhosa asked a few more questions, some were fine, some were even two of the Maker's assistants, one of them was actually three enchantment attributes, how to avoid negative attributes when hearing the two assistants broke out in a cold sweat, there were no negative three enchantment attributes? Is this still an Artifact Maker?

Chen Rui noticed that he had already exceeded three questions, and he had a long heart, and said that he didn't know, but Master Xhosa glanced at him with a smile and asked, "Your teacher, which master is it?"

The two assistants behind it suddenly realized that there were some difficult and even unknown methods that could only be used by master craftsmen! This apprentice must have studied from a certain master, so he knew those advanced methods.

"My teacher is just an old man who doesn't want to be named, and I don't know if he's a master or not. Chen Rui replied vaguely with a skillful lie.

"Okay, pass the oral exam, get a grade, and the second item is the written test. Master Xhosa didn't ask, and motioned to his assistant to take out a pen and paper for Chen Rui, "Draw a fire-based enchanted magic array for me, the higher the enchantment level, the more accurate it is, and the higher the score." ”

This was difficult for Chen Rui, and with the in-depth analysis of the data, he quickly completed a magic array with fire damage and handed it to Xhosa.

"So fast?" Xhosa took the paper and looked at it, it was not the easiest light fire in his imagination, but a complex flame attached! Not only was it accurate, but it was also marked in key parts, just like a textbook, if it wasn't for the fact that he had been staring at this apprentice just now, the paper and pen were provided by his own side, and he thought that he had used some cheating tools.

In fact, Chen Rui still has some reservations, if he draws the improved magic array that he learned from Master Yu, it is estimated that Master Xhosa's eyes will bulge.

Is this still an apprentice? Even if it is Xhosa himself, he can't draw so fast, maybe his teacher has specially trained him, Xhosa glanced at the apprentice badge in front of Chen Rui's robe, only to feel extremely dazzling, casually threw the paper and pen to the assistant, and said, "Uh...... You pass this written test, with a grade A. ”

The assistant took the magic array and looked at it, and was also stunned, secretly despising Xhosa in his heart: What does it mean to "count" you pass?,

"Zuihou is equipment manufacturing", Xhosa picked up the resume and looked at it, "Arthur, I'll take a look...... Your specialty is filled in jewelry mastery and metal mastery, there are actually two kinds, young man, you must know the truth of being greedy and chewing too much...... So, now let's go to the crafting room next to you, and you'll have three chances, and if you make high-level equipment once, you can become an official Crafter. ”

Chen Rui was a little embarrassed, after integrating those basic and advanced knowledge on the road, coupled with the function of the refining room, his weapon-making skills have made a qualitative breakthrough, and he can freely manufacture excellent-level equipment, in other words, he is already a master, and only high-level equipment should be a problem.

Chen Rui followed the three of Xhosa to the manufacturing room, which was a jewelry manufacturing room, which was complete with equipment, Xhosa motioned to his assistant to take out a bunch of materials, and said: "Don't think that you paid fifty black crystal coins are very expensive, in fact, the materials required for assessment and certification account for a considerable part." If you can succeed once, you can return ten Sombra coins to you in a while. Of course, if you still have extra money, you can apply for more advanced materials, and there is a better chance of crafting high-level equipment. ”

"No, I managed to save that money with a hard time. Chen Rui rejected Xhosa's suggestion, of course, this is pure nonsense, the black crystal coins in the storage warehouse are taller than the building of the Artifact Alliance, the key is that he doesn't want to make an excellent or quasi-excellent level equipment out of the horror.

After Chen Rui finished speaking, he selected the part he needed in the materials and started the production, as soon as he got started, the two assistants showed different colors, the proficiency of this apprentice is quite considerable, the kind of precise method of material processing, even the two of them, are not as good as it, it seems that Arthur has no problem passing the certification this time.

These two people saw only the superficial level, and Master Xhosa saw more things, and he was silent on the surface, but there were turbulent waves in his heart: this feeling, this kind of bearing, not to mention an apprentice, even a senior craftsman could hardly reach it, could it......

Chen Rui made a magic ring that enhanced the water system liliang, and the production of the main body in front was very smooth, but there were some arsenic leaks when engraving the magic array, but fortunately, it was barely made up for with inlaid gems in the end.

The attributes of this ring are a 5% increase in the cast speed of water magic and a 12% increase in the power of water magic, which is a very standard high-level equipment.

"Master, I'm done. Chen Rui wiped the sweat on his head, it was indeed not easy, this could at least become a quasi-excellence-level equipment.

Master Xhosa looked at the ring in his hand carefully, feeling an indescribable awkwardness, as if a pot of originally delicious soup had been thrown into a mouse droppings, and snorted silently: "The production of advanced equipment is complete, and the grade A, Arthur, has passed the certification of the crafter!"

The two assistants couldn't help but look at the new craftsman differently, and Master Xhosa glanced at Chen Rui deeply, and suddenly added: "You can also participate in this craftsman competition." ”

The assistants were stunned: no matter how good they are, they are just a newly promoted craftsman, why can they participate in the crafting competition?

An assistant thought of something and reminded: "Master...... The preliminary round will start in three days, and it seems that the registration deadline is over. ”

Master Xhosa glanced at the assistant and threw something to Chen Rui: "This is for you, the ten black crystal coins will not be refunded, and you can participate directly with this!"

Chen Rui saw that it was a badge, exactly the same as the one given by Master Rummenigge, Master Rummenigge has a lot of style, and he gave it away directly for nothing, this Xhosa master is good, and he also blackened ten more black crystal coins, is it to fill his own pocket and use it to buy wine and drink?

The two assistants looked at each other straightly, this badge represents the recommendation of the master of the alliance, and he can directly skip the first round of preliminaries! Each master can only recommend one person! If you throw it outside, even a thousand black crystal coins will break your head, and Master Xhosa actually gave ten black crystal coins to this new crafter!

"You two, take him to finish the formalities! I'm going to drink!"

After Master Xhosa said this, he took out a wine bottle from the space ring, poured it, ignored the three of them, staggered straight away, walked out of the manufacturing room, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "This guy, at least he can make quasi-excellent equipment, he is deliberately wasting materials, and I don't know which old monster taught him......"

PS: This period of Qingming Festival is going to go out for a day, everyone understands, the specific has not yet been decided, that day can only be changed, and today I will strive for 8000 words...... Although Dio is incompetent, he is by no means a fool, and naturally knows that Darkmoon's support for him is not so simple, but now he is using Darkmoon's Liliang to help him win the position of heir.

Once the family is in power, even if he wants to change his mind and turn against Dark Moon, the little lord who is far away in the Fallen Angel Empire can't help it.

"There's no hurry to rest, I'm going to go to the Maker Alliance first. Chen Rui asked Ji Ya, "Ji Ya, do you know the location of the Maker Alliance?"

"Yes. ”

"Without further ado, go now, I'm going to get certified by the Maker first, and then I'll see what happens. ”

"Your Excellency, you've worked hard. Dio hurriedly took out a space ring, "There is a little meaning here, please accept it, and please worry about the rest of the matter." ”

Chen Rui took the space ring, swept his thoughts, and there were black crystal coins in front of him, estimated to be as many as 100,000, worthy of being the eldest young master of the first business family, he made a very generous move, and nodded: "Thank you Mr. Diou for your kindness, I'm welcome." ”
