Chapter Ninety-Three: Grande's Apothecary
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, it's two months.
Halfway through the fall semester and on the eve of her mid-term exams, Jasmine completed her promotion.
From now on, you will truly become an adult in the wizarding world.
This speed is much faster than that of the Brothers.
According to Link's estimate, the group of brothers with all fifth-class qualifications is estimated to be at the end of this semester before they can hope to complete the promotion.
And that's just hope!
From this point of view, the unknown factors in Wizard Seren's experiment to improve the qualifications of wizards are very important.
Wizard Céline also took this very seriously, and kept searching, but never found anything useful.
The reason why Jasmine's wizarding qualifications have improved far beyond expectations seems to have really become a mystery.
Considering the special time point, the college did not let Jasmine enroll in the senior academy halfway, but arranged for Jasmine to study on her own for a period of time.
Just like Link's original operation.
The content of self-study consists mainly of courses with more than three semesters remaining, as well as the collection of books in the library of the Higher Institute.
In this section, Jasmine can pick up the study notes and bibliographic index left by Link when he studied on his own without worry and effort, and get started quickly.
Even if it can't compare to Iris, with the help of her sister, who is about to be promoted to a third-level wizard, she can master this knowledge so quickly, so she will enter the senior academy for further study in this autumn semester.
Jasmine's learning speed will also far exceed that of others.
It doesn't take long to get out of the self-learning stage.
Jasmine is happy, even though she still can't take classes with Link at the Senior Academy.
Because she can "spy" Erise's blue pool up close.
In the past two months, Bichi had invited Link to her apartment more than once.
Is that sitting?
Who doesn't know the dark mind of what she does.
Bah!
Not ashamed, not ashamed!
Thinking like this, Jasmine took Link's right hand and hugged it a little tighter.
Link twitched his arm and was dragged to death.
This is a decision to declare sovereignty widely.
Immediately, I couldn't help but sigh, age is really a wonderful thing.
Not long after Jasmine turned fifteen, she was so slim.
The overall temperament has completely kept up with the advanced development of the body.
It's no longer a beauty embryo, but a real beauty.
The green fruit is about to ripen, and it is sweet and delicious.
But the more this is the case, the more they have to keep their distance from each other.
The character of a decent man and a gentleman cannot be lost.
Link said seriously: "Loosen it a little, don't hold it so tightly, it won't affect well." ”
"Hmph, no!"
Jasmine pursed her lips and choked on tsundere, but she didn't mean to let go at all.
It doesn't matter if he likes it or not, whether he is happy or not.
If you like it and be happy, it's fine.
Link was silent, reluctant to give up the dispute with the little woman over such a trivial matter, and no longer entangled.
The two of them walked all the way to the library of the Senior Academy, and then separated, each going their separate way.
One went to the library for self-study, and the other went to take the midterm exam.
Since entering the senior college for further study, the course is super difficult, the progress is super fast, and the number of exams has increased.
Take a quiz every Monday, take a small test every two weeks, and take a big test every month.
The same is true for majors and minors.
The test results and rankings were also specially printed out and posted on the most conspicuous stone "screen" at the entrance of the first floor of the teaching building for all the wizards to see.
Those who did poorly in the test are really ashamed.
Even wizards who have studied in advanced academies are almost always strangers, except those they have known since junior school.
But their respective identities, resumes, and origins can still be checked.
For example, Link, a super genius who was promoted to a full-fledged wizard in less than a year, was recruited before further study, and completed his internship ahead of schedule.
If you don't get into the top three, you will really lose your face.
Not to mention, if you do well in the exam, the college may have another reward.
An operation mistake in the junior college period led to the loss of a few magic stones, but it is still vivid.
Fortunately, Link himself has a good talent, and he has the help of "Brain Occlumency" + Memory Palace, as well as "multi-threaded thinking".
Even if the major and minor courses are combined, you have to take 4 large classes a day, 6 days a week, and the course content is varied and the knowledge is complicated.
Under his hard work, the first few exams, whether it is a one-week test, a half-month test, or a monthly test, have firmly occupied the first place.
In this way, he barely kept the forced qualification.
Not studying in the same period, more than three-quarters of the more than 400 wizards from the North District were disgraced.
On the contrary, it is a local wizard who was born in the past "pure-blooded will" and is now "pure-blooded glory", and his face can't be hung up.
But after seeing that Link had taken so many courses, they let out some sarcastic remarks.
was slapped in the face in the end, and he deserved it.
These are all trivial things, and Link only has a superficial understanding of them, and has not delved into them.
He has always focused on two major things: creating his own meditation method and realizing the potential of the "small world" upgrade.
Self-created meditation is a long-term, meticulous work that should not be impatient;
The sooner you realize your potential, the better.
In terms of reserve materials, in addition to leaving a part of the working capital for backup, almost all of the dividends in these two months were used to purchase the required materials.
The 0-ring witchcraft of the whole department and the 1-ring witchcraft of the whole department are also quietly learning and practicing under the cover of the major course.
The more troublesome is the compound class of 1-ring armor witchcraft.
In this piece, Link has only found a "Molten Gold Battle Armor" witchcraft that combines gold and fire, and a "Rock Iron Battle Armor" witchcraft that combines gold and earth.
Both of these sorcery are top-level 1-ring sorcery that can be used as natal sorcery, and the casting consumables are molten gold mother ore and rock iron mother ore respectively.
The "Molten Gold Warframe" sorcery is biased towards attack, while the "Rock Iron Warframe" is biased towards defense.
If these two armor sorcery can be fused into natal sorcery, Link's strength will definitely increase by leaps and bounds.
At that time, it was not a problem to hit three or five of my current self.
However, just as Armor Orchid seeds are scarce and almost impossible to find on the market, molten gold and rock iron ore are also hard to come by.
And then to the Wizard of Serene and/or the Sage of Paro?
Link would have liked, but it wouldn't have fit.
It's always bad to ask too much.
Even if you want to look for it, you have to wait for Link to give a certain amount of reward.
There is a coming-and-going, which is the coming-and-going.
Anyway, this matter is not particularly anxious, Link will find it slowly by himself first.
Try to find it in the high-end shops in the north of the city and the black market in the west of the city.
For this reason, Link deliberately asked Buck and Lynn to find the five gangsters before and asked them to pay more attention to the relevant news.
Why are you looking for these five thugs instead of the intelligence dealers?
That's much more efficient.
The reason is simple, Link doesn't have many magic stones now!
In the past two months, the dividends have been stored by him, and they have almost been created.
You can't really eat soft rice, can you?
Having said that, there are indeed two little rich women who want to support him.
But men, if they are not cornered, how can they easily eat soft rice.
Link decided to take it slow and see later.
Depending on your financial situation, you can decide either to continue to hug your thighs or to eat soft rice (╯□╰).
However, the True Spirit Wizard course, which is also a part-time course, gave Link several great surprises.
The first is the remaining 1 ring of witchcraft in the mind series, "Mind Link", "Mind Shock", "Mind Madness", "Mind Labyrinth", and "Mind Slack", all of which have been learned.
Tremendous progress has been made in reconstructing the defense of the sea.
"Occlumency" + memory palace + mind labyrinth, the three are superimposed as a line of defense.
Set up a trap of "mind madness" + "mind shock" to defend yourself and fight back.
Properly.
It's much stronger than the original defense of only "Occlumency".
In addition, not only has Link learned all the Mind Series witchcraft, but Flandor has also learned it, and the power she casts is not even less than Link!
If you are in the "small world", Flandor mobilizes the blessing of the source power, which is almost comparable to a senior second-level wizard.
In the future, he will definitely be a good helper for Link.
At the time of the battle, he suddenly came out of the sea of link's knowledge, and the yin people were a must.
Second, after systematically learning the knowledge system of true spirit wizards, Link's understanding of the soul, the sea of knowledge, and spiritual power has become more profound.
Not only did it help with the creation of meditation methods, but it also brought the development of the initial version of the "Elf" potion, which had been put on hold to improve the qualifications of wizards, back on the agenda.
Not...... Link himself named it a "goblin" potion, which was different from the "refining" potions that were already on sale.
The day's exams are over quickly.
Link leaves the Senior Academy with Jasmine, who is waiting for her, to go to the large laboratory that is about to expire.
These days, Link continues to push forward the research and development progress of the "goblin" elixir.
Calculate the time, and the first samples will come out today.
After taking the sample of the pharmacy, Link was about to move to the lab.
The large laboratory was returned to the academy and moved to a pharmacy in the eastern part of the city.
The shop is the property of the Academy, and it is rent-free for three years, which is considered a reward for Link's outstanding performance during the call-up period.
After consulting with Wizard Selene, Link prepares to open his own potion shop.
The potions that were previously licensed to the Wizard of Seren's Apothecary still maintain their original cooperation agreements.
It's just that from now on, the potions developed by Link himself, the potions developed by "whatever you want", will be exclusively distributed in the Grand Pharmacy.
Sales in the outer districts, like the Cerin Apothecary, are entrusted to a trading company under the name of the college.
Wizard Céline introduces her partner to Link.
Deal with the Link. Grande's name immediately agreed to cooperate.
The cooperative treatment is only a little lower than that of Cerene's apothecary, and much better than the apothecaries opened by other first-level wizards, or even second-level wizards.
With some more time to prepare, the Grand Apothecary will open.
Link had to come up with at least one potion from the town store.
It is against this background that the research and development of the "goblin" elixir has been completed.
Putting away the samples, taking some personal belongings, and informing the lab tower to leave the large lab, where Link and Jasmine had left one of the first prizes in the two-zone competition.
"Time flies!"
Looking back at some of the labs where the lights were still bright, Jasmine suddenly let out a sigh of emotion.
Suddenly I thought back to it, as if I had just left the Quat Islands yesterday.
More than two years have passed, and the little girl who was scheming but ignorant and immature at the beginning finally broke herself by playing tricks that could not be put on the table.
Fold in the hands of a dead log.
It's embarrassing to think about.
You think he's your prey.
In fact, hunters often appear as prey.
Link didn't know what Jasmine was feeling, but replied lightly: "Look ahead." ”
Jasmine quickly cleaned up her sudden emotions and didn't feel any more nostalgia.
The two returned to the villa and rested separately.
Following.
Link arrives at the Cerlene Wizard's Apothecary and takes five extremely strict confidentiality contracts from the Cerlene Wizard.
This kind of contract, made by a true spirit wizard of the Great Sage level under the witness of the will of the world, is extremely binding.
After signing the contract, if you want to leak the secret, you will be subject to the power of the rules controlled by the Great Sage True Spirit Wizard, and the double restraint and punishment of the will of the world.
If the circumstances are serious, it may even be a headshot.
Literal headshots.
Died suddenly on the spot.
Thanking him and leaving, Link heads to the yet-to-be-opened Grande Apothecary.
The layout of the pharmacy is almost identical to that of Selene's pharmacy.
The first basement floor is the laboratory, which is mainly in the direction of biochemistry;
The front hall on the first floor is used as a storefront, the middle is a restaurant, a bar, a changing room, and a plant material processing operation room in the backyard.
The second floor is the pharmaceutical R&D laboratory and the pharmaceutical refining laboratory.
Link went straight to the biochemistry lab on the first basement floor.
Buck and Lynn are already waiting here.
In addition to the two of them, there are also five low-level gangsters in the West District who can't wait.
"Big guy." "Hello big guy! "I've seen the big guy. ”
The greetings came and went.
The five thugs nodded their heads again and again.
Be as humble as your posture is.
"Thank you for your hard work, go sit on it for a while."
Link exchanged pleasantries with Buck and Lynn before the two walked up the stairs before turning to look at the five thugs.
"Figured it out?"
"Think it through!"
"No regrets?"
"No regrets!"
"Sign the confidentiality contract."
"No problem, just sign it."
A short conversation, just a process.
The five thugs didn't even look carefully at the contents of the contract, and directly signed their names, pressed their handprints, dripped blood, and entered the frequency of mental power and magic characteristics.
This is a proper multi-layered layer of confidentiality.
Putting away the five signed non-disclosure contracts, Link gestured to the five custom-made restraint chairs in the biochemistry lab.
The thugs didn't wait for Link to speak, they sat down on their own, and took the initiative to restrain their limbs, torso, and head one by one.
"Again, in order to ensure the effect, we will not be given any form of anesthesia. You have to bear the inevitable pain on your own, so that the effect of improving the wizard's qualifications can be the best. ”
Link reminded earnestly while preparing the "goblin" potion.
"No problem, big guy, as long as we can improve our qualifications, we can bear it."
"Yes, no problem, I can bear it."
"Even if I die, I won't give up. Come on, big guy! ”
"Big guy, come on."
The thugs all had red eyes and shouted at the top of their voices.
Link nodded, not saying much.
I just hope that the gangsters will comply with the request and not eat water and food three days in advance.
Otherwise, if you dirty the laboratory, you have to let the gangsters feel what cruelty is.
Preparing five sets of "elf" potion, Link turned on all the monitoring devices attached to the restraint chair, and then injected the gangsters with "elf" potion one by one.
After that, Link moved into a soundproof observation room.
After a few moments, the "elf" potion began to work.
Skinning and peeling bones, thousands of ants devouring hearts, torn souls, all kinds of unbearable Ling Chi general pain, almost simultaneously launched an attack on the gangsters.
The howling of ghosts and wolves echoed through the biochemical lab.
However, no matter how painful and unbearable it is, the thugs will at most shout louder and struggle more violently.
Not a single person shouted the words of giving up.
In the transcendent world of Weili to itself.
The most painful thing is not that there is no qualification, but that there are only very low qualifications, but you can look up and see the "bright starry sky" at any time.
Born in the city of Revosoth, born with only low qualifications, it is the misfortune of the gangsters.
They have no hope for the rest of their lives, and can only wander the streets and live without human beings.
But, do they themselves want to live so inhumanely and without dignity?
They don't want to live with dignity.
They want to be human too!
Grit your teeth and persevere.
Thank you for your tip, thank you!
