Chapter 156: The Returning Dwarf
Cameron leaves in a hurry to investigate the matter of the Jen Femi Auction House. For Aaron, since Novis can no longer be found, this matter can only be put aside for the time being.
However, the two most urgent things to solve have come to an end for the time being, and Aaron finally has time to do his own thing.
Before leaving St. Desi, Aaron had promised Lan Wen that he would learn swordsmanship from Clayford, and that he could not be untrustworthy, and Lan Wen, who had learned swordsmanship, would be of greater help to him.
Aaron talked to Lan Wen about it, Lan Wen was overjoyed and nodded again and again, but he was afraid of not being himself, and he didn't know if Aaron would take care of himself. Aaron was so angry with Lan Wen that he patted Lan Wen on the back of the head and scolded with a smile: "The little rabbit cub pretends to be like an adult." I won't be alive until I meet you? fuck off, report to me quickly. ”
Seeing Crayford, the old man couldn't help but be verbose, and Aaron couldn't wait to plug his ears immediately. However, in front of Crayford, Aaron did not dare to be too presumptuous. After all, he can be regarded as a lesson from the past, and if he annoys Crayford, it will inevitably be another difficult torture. Aaron really had enough.
"You kid, your combat skills will soon reach the third order, right? As long as you follow me, in three months, I will appoint you to the fourth order, how about it?"
Aaron shook his head again and again: "Your old man is really busy, why am I embarrassed to disturb you." Lan Wen, you just have to worry about a little more, can he be obedient? It's easier to teach than me. ”
"It's easier to teach than you are!" said Credford, grimacingly.
Aaron rubbed his nose and let out a dry laugh without saying much. He knew that the old man was not happy now, so he could only make amends on the side.
"Hey, boy, do you want to learn faster, or do you want to learn slowly?" asked Crayford.
"Is there a difference between the two?" Lan Wen asked.
"Of course there is a difference. Slow learning has a solid foundation, and it will be easier to develop even in the future. Learning fast means that it is easy to reach a certain level, but it is difficult to make a breakthrough in the future. So, boy, you have to think clearly. Crayford said meaningfully.
"What type is Mr. Razor?" asked Lan Wen.
"I want to think about it......" Crayford actually raised his head and began to think about it seriously, and it took nearly half a minute before Crayford replied, "It should be berserk, right?"
Aaron listened to Crayford's words and almost pulled out his long sword and stabbed the serious-looking old man in front of him.
"Then I'll be like Mr. Razor. Lan Wen replied almost without thinking.
"Lan Wen, you have to think clearly, it's hellish training. I'm not surprised that you're going to be disabled because of this. Aaron discouraged.
Hell-level training, Aaron felt trembling when he thought about it, and he didn't have to say to train.
"No problem. Sir, if you can persevere, I will. Lan Wen clenched his fists.
Seeing that Lan Coin expressed his firm determination, Aaron also knew that it would be useless to dissuade him, so he had no choice but to say to Crayford: "He is like a brother to me, don't play him badly." ”
Crayford's face suddenly turned white and green, and it took more than ten seconds before he held back one word - "Get out"!
Aaron fled from Crayford's sword hall in a disgraced manner and hurriedly got into the carriage, feeling as if something was suddenly missing. The two people he knew when he pretended to be Razor at the beginning who could be considered friends, one was Fei Lia and the other was Lan Wen, and now they have left him, and he feels a little sad.
"Young Master, where are we going now?" said the coachman in front of him, looking back at Aaron.
"Where are you going? Go back. Aaron reacted, since everyone was working hard, he couldn't be left behind, go back and practice alchemy quickly.
......
Without Felia and Lan Wen, Aaron really felt all kinds of inconveniences. Even if you buy a medicinal herb, you can't find the right person. In the end, he had to ask Randall to buy it - although there were other subordinates, Aaron always felt a little uncomfortable and too relieved.
After Aaron prepared the elixir "Spiritual Reflux" to improve his mental power, the speed of progress has increased by leaps and bounds, relying on meditation and the "Code of Creation", Aaron's strength is also rapidly improving, and now he has been able to roughly refine some potions with offensive effects. For example, in the "Fire Dragon Technique", a thumb-sized red ball will burn when the tin foil wrapped around it is peeled off, and it will burn when it is exposed to the wind. In addition, there is also the "fire break", a liquid placed in a reagent tube, which falls to the ground, and after shattering, it will cause an explosion. Although the power of "Rush to Break" is great, the difficulty of saving it also makes Aaron very headache. Aaron would even think that if he could make a grenade like that.
However, he didn't know much about weapons, and he could only think about it and put this idea in his heart.
In addition to practicing alchemy, Aaron knew that after becoming a third-order alchemist, the control of mental power also became very important. Alchemy is very powerful, but if it is not well controlled, alchemy is likely to turn from a helper to a murderer. So Aaron also began to practice mental power control.
To put it simply, two fist-sized steel balls are placed on the table, and the left and right hands control the steel balls to move continuously along the drawn trajectory and perform various operations, but because the steel ball is relatively heavy, Aaron often can't control its trajectory, so it also causes the steel ball to fall off the table.
At this point, Aaron could only sigh, then picked up the ball, re-manipulated it, and changed the weight of the ball, the complexity of the pattern, and the size of the table according to his proficiency. At the end of the day, Aaron's arms looked like they were going to break. However, Aaron still understands that he still has to continue to work hard, because this level of mental power control is still not enough for him.
Time passed in a hurry, and in the blink of an eye, five days passed in the blink of an eye.
On the sixth day, a dwarf rode into Hankyo on a tall horse, and without the slightest hesitation, went straight to the Duke's mansion.
At this time, Aaron had just eaten breakfast and was about to continue practicing alchemy when a guard walked into the room.
"Young master, there are dwarves who want to see you. ”
Aaron stopped halfway up the stairs and looked back at the guard, "Is it the dwarf who came before?"
"Yes, sir. The guard replied respectfully.
"Let him in, uh, bring him here. Aaron turned and went down the stairs.
