Chapter 573: Night by the River (I)

The news that Kaka was about to be promoted to a grandmaster-level craftsman surprised the young people inexplicably, so that not only would Campbell have his own fifth-order super powerhouse in a short period of time, but most importantly, the future liberation of the Ancient Tree would also be more certain.

However, the alchemy master told Leon very strictly, not to assume that he would immediately have the strength to deal with monsters of the same rank as independently as Krystal or Wollent. Because the alchemy master is a craftsman branch after all, his own ability is not as strong as that of other professions, and as the level rises, this gap will become more and more obvious, and he can only rely on a variety of powerful potions and alchemy devices to make up for it, and that will definitely take quite a while.

Moreover, when the potion is used up, there is also a possibility that the device will be damaged, and once it is too late to replenish and repair, then the empty-handed grandmaster-level craftsman will definitely be completely defeated by the other party.

"What does that matter?" Leon said disapprerovingly, "No matter how you say it, it's still a fifth-order, right?" As for the potion...... We have a lot of materials in our hands, and when the time comes, you can bring a few hundred bottles and smash them all the way!"

"As long as there are more ingredients, it's no problem?'s just an idiot!" Kaka said angrily, "Let's not talk about the value of these materials, do you know how many processes it takes to prepare a bottle of high-level hero potion? Do you know how much time it takes to refine one of the ingredients? If it were as easy as you say, alchemy would have been omnipotent a long time ago!"

"Ahh

"It's just an analogy," Leon said immediately. However, seeing that the Mentor was angry, he suddenly clapped his fist and said, "By the way! It occurred to me that there were a few more things to ask Jeff. ”

"Then, Master Mentor, you are busy first!"

Seeing the apprentice disappear outside the door with a panicked expression, the angry look on Kaka's face immediately disappeared, he shook his head, and said with a smile: "The stinky boy ran quite fast, I wanted to teach you a few more words!"

He turned and jumped from the bench to the table, then sat down. Feet on the outside and swaying gently.

"Leon has been promoted to the fourth order, Katarina and the others are also third order, and Sophia's situation is even more unexpected. Kaka crossed his arms and unconsciously plucked the sparse beard from his chin with one hand, and muttered, "These young people are making progress so fast, if it weren't for my recent progress." Maybe one day they will overtake them. It's embarrassing......"

"But it's been a long time, and in a blink of an eye, I've been stuck in the master's rank for nearly ten years, and it seems that ...... It's only since I met Leon that I've started to change?" Kaka stared at the door and said slowly, "I guess those young people are the same, it seems that we are all tainted with your luck...... And where does your future hold?"

......

The young men were walking lightly down Manor Avenue in the direction of the council chamber, which doubled as a dining room, as many of the buildings were still unfinished, and Jeff had said he would prepare dinner for them there. It's nearly dusk, and it's almost time.

It was quite lively at dinner. Without the constraints of a formal meeting, everyone said some immature ideas, each of which sparked a heated discussion, and finally extended the dinner time to two hours.

When Leon walked out of the brightly lit council chamber, the whole Campbell was already covered in a layer of night, and the lord's manor was like a zirconia diamond in the night, with little lights shining everywhere.

"Isn't it satisfying?"

The knight girl who came out behind looked at the young man's expression and pursed her lips and said.

"Yes, to see the manor come to life again in my hands is more satisfying than any gain," Leon said with emotion, glancing at the girl beside him and adding, "Except for you, of course." ”

Caterina didn't understand the meaning of this sentence at first, but after a while, she finally came to her senses, and immediately reached out and squeezed Leon's waist hard, and whispered, "It's really ...... Nasty!"

"Katarina, come with me to the river?" Leon rubbed his waist, then took the other man's hand and asked softly.

“...... Hmm," the girl replied with an inaudible voice.

The next two men walked around the pedestrians on the avenue and walked all the way to the river, where the cool breeze was picking up, but it didn't affect them at all.

Leon pulled Caterina to sit on the gentle slope of the river, quietly watching the colors of the sky flow, and never spoke, and the same was true of the girl, who was already snuggled up to Leon at the moment, her right hand clasped tightly with the other party.

After a while, Caterina broke the silence first.

"In the past, when I looked up at the sky, I always felt small, so many times I thought that I must live a more wonderful life in order to have a precious life in vain. ”

"But the reality is often not what people want, and my life has been uneventful, even ...... I often feel depressed and hesitant, and I don't know where to go in the future. ”

Speaking of this, the girl put her head on Leon's shoulder, and at the same time held Leon's arm in her arms, and said softly: "It wasn't until I met you that I really felt that my expectations had begun to be realized slowly, my life and experiences became colorful, and I had more expectations for the future." ”

"Thank you, Leon," Caterina raised her head, looked directly at the young man beside her, her lips pursed for a long time, and she said in a whisper, "I, I, I ......"

At this time, the faces of the two people were quite close, and Li Ang looked at each other's embarrassed expressions, and could almost feel the heat coming from the girl's face, and he suddenly felt that his lips were dry, his limbs were hot, and his heart began to beat rapidly.

But Caterina said the word "I" several times and didn't say the rest of the words, in line with the principle that this kind of thing should not make the girl too embarrassed, Li Ang's heart was crossed, and he said in a deep voice: "I understand, so do I." ”

Then he grabbed Caterina by the slender shoulder and quickly kissed the other on the lips.

"Really soft ......" is the first thought of young people.

"It's still hot......" is the second thought.

The girl first trembled violently, and then her body seemed to melt, and she leaned back softly, lying directly on the gentle slope.

Next, there was a slight "hmm" sound in the night, breaking the silence of the river. (To be continued......)
