Chapter 188: Master Nobel
Following the Queen's instructions, Lily led Ivas to Isabel's bedchamber.
Before arriving, they met Yulia, who was traveling with an old man.
"-Brother!"
Without waiting for Ivus to speak, Yulia noticed Ivus first.
The girl's eyes lit up suddenly, and she rushed over.
Her whole body fluttered lightly on Ewass, her white hair fluttering like a veil. Yulia wrapped her arms around Eivus's neck and knelt on Ehuas's thighs with her legs together. To Aihuas's surprise, he didn't feel how heavy Yulia was...... She was still as light and fluttery as ever, her body feeling hollow.
He hugged Yulia affectionately, touched Yulia's forehead with his forehead, and said softly, "Yes...... I am back. ”
The "knight" David Patton on the side was a little anxious, but he didn't dare to touch Yulia, so he could only whisper next to him: "Hey...... Mr. Ewass' leg ......"
He was obviously subconsciously worried that Ivas would be injured by Yulia.
After all, generally speaking, who has good legs in a wheelchair?
Since I am in a wheelchair, it is most likely a leg injury. It's not good to be pressed like that.
"It's fine."
Ivas shook his head at him slightly, and that's when David remembered...... It seems that Ivas has indeed entered a recovery period. He had also seen Ivas pacing around his house.
And Yulia didn't look at David the whole time, nor did she pay attention to David's shouting, but muttered in a low voice: "I thought my brother would blame me for not coming home......"
- She still remembers that her character is an innocent girl who doesn't know that Ivas has an accident and is kept in the dark by Isabel the whole time.
And hearing Yulia say this, Ivas immediately understood what she meant.
So he also said ambiguously: "It's okay. I'm more relieved that you're staying with Isabel. ”
Immediately afterward, Ivas paused slightly, and continued on the topic, but lowered his voice: "How is Isabel?" ”
“…… Her Royal Highness the Princess is not in very good shape, Mr. Moriarty. ”
At this moment, it was the old man who had just walked over slowly.
He had flaxen-colored hair mixed with gray hair, and wore bizarre monocles that looked like he had a microscope or telescope on his face. When the old man looked at Ehuas, it rotated and retracted to focus.
The old man didn't look very tall, maybe a little shorter than Lily. Ivas didn't look back at Lily, which was a bit rude.
At the moment, he was carrying a brown-red leather suitcase and wearing a knee-length white coat. It looks like a doctor with medicine. He and Yulia were also among the few people here who weren't dressed in black.
"You are ......"
Ivas looked at the other party and immediately recognized the identity of the other party from the iconic equipment "Paul's Eye": "Master Nobel? ”
"Not a master."
The old man nodded slightly, very useful. But he said modestly.
He was clearly pleased with the respect that Ivas had for him.
But he certainly didn't know why Ivas called him Master.
In general, there are two possibilities for being called a master. The most accurate way to say this is those who have their own works, writings, or inventions of the fifth level of transcendence. They usually come from the path of beauty, wisdom and balance, and there are also transcendent people on other paths who like to write books to share their experiences.
Another possibility is that people praise each other's talents or merits as "comparable to those of the above". Therefore, they will respectfully call each other masters.
Nobel is the latter.
He wasn't too strong as a transcendent, but he was quite a great alchemist. He developed more than 100 kinds of explosives and dozens of drugs in his lifetime, and now he has several companies under his name and several companies in which he has a technical stake......
Because of this, he did not die in the history of the game, but was placed under house arrest by Star Antimony as an important talent. Even directly transported back the star antimony, which attaches great importance to alchemy.
Because Nobel was a star antimony man before.
He only fought with the Wang Li Alchemy Association when he was young. And now, the vice president who had a dispute with him back then has long since died...... Therefore, under the kind invitation and respect of Star Antimony, he slowly integrated into Star Antimony after a period of weak resistance. When the upper limit of the version level was opened to level 70, he also rose to the fifth energy level and became a master of the Eight Classics.
The reason why Ivus has an impression of him is because he has good equipment. Before leaving Avalon, he gave the "Eye of Paul" he was wearing at the moment to his favorite student in Avalon. The student later traveled to Star Antimony to find the teacher, only to be killed in the middle of a battle between the necromancer and the demon scholar.
And the undead with strange glasses on his face is the mission trigger point. Once you defeat it and get the glasses, you can get the "Eye of Paul".
This is the "Legacy Set", which is one of the few pieces of equipment that can increase the success rate of alchemy.
How much equipment is there? As little as the version before Ivus was reborn, this kind of probability-based equipment still couldn't fill half of the slot on his body, and there was no high-level replacement.
If the player has seen Nobel in any of the side quests before, they can get intel by investigating the glasses: this is Nobel's glasses. Then continue to do it, and you will end up with the "Nobel Legacy" set.
This three-piece set can increase the success rate of high-difficulty alchemy by 10% and ordinary alchemy by 30%, and can also prevent explosions after high-difficulty alchemy failure.
With this set, you can start the "radical experimental strategy" to reduce the success rate, increase the yield, and the possibility of mutation when making medicine. Suffice it to say, you don't have to play Alchemist without this set.
Therefore, everyone who plays alchemy has to run this questline. When you synthesize something in alchemy, you have to cut the equipment, otherwise you will have to spend several times the money to hard cap this probability.
But on the flip side, it's also a free-to-get set. As long as you run a long quest line, you will eventually get the must-have three-piece set with no super-level replacement.
At that time, Ivas was unemployed at home, so he would take on a little training work. People always have to eat.
And this quest line and the noble red quest line are the most list--what these two quests have in common is that they have several consecutive stealth quests that are not too difficult.
Although it is not too difficult for Eivus...... After all, it's essentially a way to move forward or parkour from blind spots, as long as you patiently analyze it and then plan the route, it's very simple.
But for players who don't have this kind of gaming experience and don't like to play games with their brains, this kind of task can easily raise blood pressure.
But it's a good thing for Iwas.
Before and after, he earned at least tens of thousands of dollars just by helping people run this task. It can be said that it is very good to help Ivus through the most scarce period.
Because of this, Eivers's gaze at Nobel was subconsciously full of respect and gratitude.
- Food, clothing, parents, this is!
The side effect is that when he sees Nobel, Nobel's image and mourning automatically appear in his mind......
"I've been learning alchemy from the Nobel Prize lately!"
Yulia noticed Eivus's attitude towards Nobel, and said half-show-off, half-indebtedly.
Nobel nodded, and praised Yulia in front of the "parents" without hesitation: "Yulia's talent is quite good...... If she is determined to follow the path of equilibrium, and Her Highness Isabel allows it, I would also like to be her mentor. She does have the talent to reach the way of the 'master'. ”
The implication was that he felt that Yulia had a chance to enter the fifth energy level.
This can be regarded as Nobel's obsession.
He himself really wanted to enter the fifth energy level, but he was really not good at advanced rituals. After two failures, he didn't dare to try again—he could die if he failed again. If it weren't for the fact that the world level was raised later, and the difficulty of promotion to the lower energy level was reduced, he would not have dared to try it a third time.
In other words, the Nobel of this period has actually given up on becoming a real master.
That's why Iwass was so happy when he called him "Master".
It's like a player who is always said to have a bright future is about to retire, but he hasn't won a medal or a championship in his entire career.
Because Nobel doesn't seem to care anymore, but he actually cares about it in his heart. The more high-ranking people call him a master, the happier he is. On the other hand, instead of calling him "master", calling the other person "sir" may even cause him to be annoyed.
- This is also an intelligence advantage. When watching people put down dishes, you have to know what dishes you like on the other side.
After all, Nobel does have real talent in his hands.
The proof that he was able to refine the inheritance set was that it was not the ancient equipment he had unearthed in his archaeological research, but that he had rubbed it out himself. It is indeed said that you can manually rub the purple out.
I wonder if I can buy some equipment from Nobel......
"Are you sure you're going to go on the path of equilibrium?"
Ivus confirmed to Yulia.
If Yulia is sure, then he'll have to help Yulia find something.
It just so happened that he knew that the noble red had a good secret book on his side...... The inheritance package is not very urgent. If Nobel really valued Yulia, maybe it wouldn't have to be handed over to Yulia as a "legacy".
However, if he treats Yulia badly, then Yulia may be able to get the Legacy Set two versions in advance.
Yulia nodded slightly.
She said seriously: "Under the teacher's teaching, I have now touched the wall of the second energy level, and the other parts have been prepared—next week's advanced ceremony, I will hold my first advanced ceremony and advance to the second energy level." ”
Next week is the middle of the month, so it shouldn't be a big problem.
Ivus nodded slightly, relieved slightly.
Looking at Ivus's somewhat worried expression, Nobel just smiled and said, "Don't worry too much about Yulia, Mr. Moriarty. She may be more talented than you think...... I've also told Yulia about the characteristics of the path to choose. ”
- That's a big deal.
Hearing this, Ivas was a little surprised.
There is no place in this world where you can check strategies and share information, and the aborigines do not know the specific effect when they see the names of the characteristics of the path. If you want to obtain information about the characteristics of the path, you need to try a complete lineage one by one. Therefore, it can be said that each complete list of path characteristics has been exhaustively enumerated over a period of several hundred years.
This is quite secret knowledge, and it is basically passed down by hand.
It's only been a few days since they've met?
However, this kind of words strengthened Ivus's thoughts.
- Before Yulia advances, he will use the shepherding method to share the power of the Flame Butterfly with Yulia. This way her advancement will be foolproof.
If you're lucky......
Maybe she'll be able to catch up with Ivas and Isabel.
The second chapter still has to be a little later
