PS: There is something at home, one shift today and tomorrow, and two shifts depending on the situation the day after tomorrow.
The alchemist didn't care about the apprentice's expression and tone at the moment, he jumped onto a chair, his eyes fixed on the gems on the workbench, his hands clasped together and rubbed them together unconsciously.
After a while, he looked at the young man next to him, his gaze containing a rather complicated look.
"Do you know how much these are worth?" Kaka asked.
"Millions?" Leon laughed, "Or more?" I haven't done the math anyway. ”
"Then you just put it in front of me so casually, and...... Tell me, do you have more gems?" asked Kaka again.
Leon thought for a moment and said, "Master Mentor, I understand the meaning of what you mean, but the last time I told you that you had discovered a demonized Mithril bonanza, why didn't you ask that?"
"That's different," Kaka shook his head and said, "It's just an underground deposit, it will take a lot of effort to turn it into a real thing, and the result is not certain, but this time it is a real gem, each one is worth quite amazingly, you are so relieved of a gnome who is greedy for money?"
At this moment, Kaka's tone fluctuated faintly
"Mentor ...... You underestimated your place in my heart," the young man walked over with a big grin, put his hand around the dwarf alchemist's shoulder, and said with a smile, "and underestimating my trust in you at the same time. ”
"Including you, including Katerina, Sophia. Jeff, Melissa...... Wait, you're like my family, and I'm going to carry you behind my back if I do something. What's the point of achieving so much in the future?"
"Am I so important to you?" Kaka asked in a strange tone, letting the young apprentice around him.
"Of course," Leon patted Kaka on the shoulder, his tone rather emotional, "to tell you from the bottom of my heart, if you hadn't accompanied us all the way from Gray Town to the present, how could we young people have done so much in the Land of Chaos? It's impossible to get to where you are now, and you don't have access to the Ancient Tree, is it?"
"And you are not only my alchemical teacher, but also my life's teacher. I am like a reliable and amiable elder, and I can say that I feel at ease with you by my side......"
"Stop!" the alchemy master slapped the apprentice's hand down, and then said very disdainfully: "The acting skills are so bad! And it's so numb to death!
"Isn't that why you have to ask me?" said Leon with a look of grievance.
"Don't pretend to me!" Kaka glared at the apprentice, "Alright! Show me the material!"
After saying this. The alchemist jumped out of his chair and walked briskly to a large bookshelf, his back to Leon who didn't know what he was looking for, and it took him a long time before he walked back again, but his hand was empty.
"What were you looking for?" the apprentice wondered.
"You have to take care of it!" the alchemy master roared, but his face was visibly reddened, and his gaze was evasive and he didn't make eye contact with Li Ang.
The young man smiled secretly in his heart, he knew that the tutor's mood had fluctuated a little just now. So he used the excuse to avoid himself to adjust the situation, of course he wouldn't say anything. Take out the other crystal core and place it on the table.
The alchemy master, who was about to become angry, immediately closed his mouth, his eyes widened, and he muttered, "Really, there really is one!"
"Of course, there's this," Leon said, setting aside several large, dark round objects.
“...... Sure enough, it is the one-eyed of a high-level eye demon, and it is intact, which is too precious...... It's so precious!" said the alchemist as he inhaled.
"Oh my...... This is the tentacle of the Beholder...... There is also the spar tip tail of an adult six-armed snake demon...... Molten lizard's scales ......"
Kaka identified the materials that appeared on the table one by one, and after a while, he sat down on his chair and sighed and said, "Most of these powerful monsters are distributed in various unknown wild places, or can only be encountered in the depths of the dark realm, so they are quite rare, and they are rare materials that can be encountered but cannot be sought...... There are even times when money can't buy it. ”
"The Ancient Tree can take these things out casually, it must be that he killed a large number of monsters after being bound in the Great Wasteland," Kaka shook his head and said slowly, "It's hard to imagine how powerful he would be in his heyday." ”
Kaka pondered for a while, and finally raised his head to meet Leon's eyes, "Like you just said, this is an opportunity, and a great opportunity for you to stand tall on this land!"
"If you can rescue him, not only will your territory expand several times, but the security of your territory will be guaranteed, and most importantly, ...... You may have to wait for more unexpected harvests from the Ancient Tree in the future!"
"So there is no room for failure in this operation!" Kaka said heavily, "As long as it is an alchemy product, no matter what you need, I will do my best to support you!"
"Yes," said Leon, "that's how I thought about it, and that's why I said so much at the meeting." ”
"I'm not against finding a helper from the Dark Realm, but you have to be careful, their personalities are capricious, and their views on many things are fundamentally different from ours, so it's difficult to get along with," Kaka said sternly: "And I think it's best for you not to contact the military of the Sver Kingdom, although the soldiers are good at fighting and their strength is generally not weak, but in a sense, in fact, the way the soldiers think about things is not the same as ours." ”
"Understood, I'll take the opportunity to act," Leon said seriously, "Anyway, I won't let anyone interfere with this operation." ”
"Hmm...... I believe you in that," the alchemist glanced at his apprentice and said, "You kid has a lot of ideas, and sometimes even I am ashamed of myself. ”
"What's the matter!" Leon immediately cried out.
Kaka ignored him at all, but took out two dimensional bags, first poured out all the contents in one go, and then carefully put the precious materials on the table into the dimensional bags in turn, and then he said slowly: "I will give you a list in a few days, the tools and materials on it should be complete in the chaotic city, I will study these two crystal cores carefully while they haven't come yet, and strive to make some results,"
"As for the potion matter, you ask Edward to help hire ten alchemists to come over, and the ordinary potions will be handed over to them, and I will only be responsible for the acceptance and preparation of other special potions, and it should reach the amount you require in half a year." ”
"Oh, there's one more thing I should tell you," Kaka brushed back the sparse hair on the top of his head and said indifferently, "Recently, my research work has been progressing well, and some of the complicated questions that used to be difficult to understand have been answered one by one, at this rate...... It is still relatively promising to become a grandmaster-level alchemy craftsman within three or five months. ”
"Huh?" Li Ang was stunned, "Are you about to become an alchemy master?"
"Nonsense, of course the Alchemy Grandmaster is the Fifth Order," Kaka looked disappreroving, but judging from the upward movement of the corners of his mouth, the Alchemy Master's mood at the moment was quite proud. (To be continued......)
