Volume 1 Threesome Chapter 78 Alchemy Master
However, in the face of opposition, Midi did not seem to feel the tension in the slightest.
He smiled indifferently and said, "The proverb of beating the water dog, I wonder if you have heard of it?"
The heads of the five major mercenary groups were stunned for a moment.
In Midimune's eyes, a cold light flashed: "For example, although I slaughtered more than forty main forces of the Blood Blade in one go just now, I still let the remaining sixty or so people escape after all. Ladies and gentlemen, if you happen to encounter these fish that have slipped through the net, should you treat them with courtesy, or do you fulfill the obligation of a true adventurer to eliminate evil once and for all?"
Speaking of which, these extremely shrewd cadres have naturally understood it thoroughly.
No one wants to clash with a behemoth like the Bloodblade Mercenary Regiment, which is inextricably linked to the nobility.
But there is no one who wants to see this monster that robbers generally rampant in the circle of adventurers be deflated.
It's just that beating the water dogs is another matter.
Since there are people who are willing to stand in front, then there is no problem in putting cold guns, stabbing knives, and picking up straws, and maybe you can also get some loot and intelligence.
Moreover, in the recent period, the disregard for the atrocities of the Bloody Blades in Tucker Town has affected the reputation of these first-class mercenary groups a lot. According to Midi's suggestion, if the banner of "rebuilding the order of adventurers" can be raised, and there are some practical actions, it must be very good to restore the reputation.
"Agreed. The bearded deputy head of the iron-blooded mercenary group said in a deep voice. He was the first to object, and now, he was the first to agree. The very simple principle of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages made the bearded man quickly turn his attitude one hundred and eighty degrees.
"The mountain wolf's side is also willing to respond. The Twin Swordsmen followed, nodding as well.
The other three cadres had lower authority, but after a little hesitation, they finally complied with the intention of the two strongest mercenary groups, and nodded in agreement.
"It's so boring. ”
As the heads of the mercenary group politely said goodbye and left, a hoarse voice sighed.
Robin the raven flapped her wings and landed on Midi's shoulder. Throughout the battle, it had been hovering over Tucker Town on Midi's orders, monitoring every move of each mercenary group, and by the way, assisting the Morning Star mercenary group.
Robin, who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, is naturally very much looking forward to some idiot jumping out and working against Midi.
But unfortunately, the major mercenary groups have taken an extremely cautious and conservative posture, and have not taken any action at all. And now, the attitude of the leaders of the five mercenary groups has completely disappointed it.
"Isn't there anyone who can't disagree? That bearded man looks like a muscular man, shouldn't he come up and look like he can't be beaten and provoke?, and that gloomy two-knife man, shouldn't he be secretly rubbing behind his back?" said Robin angrily, and sighed heavily, "Ah, I really want to experience the pleasure of slapping my face." ”
Listening to the crow's exclamation, Midi didn't even have the strength to refute, not even the strength to talk.
He was curious, obviously there was an iceberg-like master like the Witch of the Mist, and the books around him were all esoteric and obscure magic books, so what did Robin's brain pretend to be all the vulgar content of a messy knight's adventure novel?
Could it be that it will sneak out of Lu to read knight novels?
It's just a demon.
"Actually, this crow is actually a demon?" a slightly shrill trembling voice suddenly rang out.
The owner of the voice was a raunchy old man with a ridiculous-looking pair of round glasses, a slick of beard hanging over his mouth, and his hair sloppy like a bird's nest. A coat that I don't know what color Lu Dao originally was, there are all kinds of stains everywhere.
The strange old man was apparently one of the captured adventurers.
These adventurers were very interested in Midi and the Falcon Regiment, but the one in front of them seemed to be only interested in the crow on Midi's shoulder.
Sensing the intently focused gaze of the other party hidden behind the small round lenses, Robin's self-esteem was greatly satisfied.
However, for Midi, while Robin's identity as a demon is not a big deal, he obviously doesn't like the feeling of being scrutinized either.
"May I ask who you are?" Midi asked kindly, but her gaze habitually began to look for the flaws in the other party.
But the next moment, when he heard the other party introduce himself, he immediately forgot about it.
"Oh, that's right, my name is Norton, an alchemist!" the strange old man hurriedly explained, pushing his glasses, as if sensing his faux pas.
And the moment she heard the name, Midi almost squirted out without a mouthful of water.
Norton?
Norton.
Norton!
That alchemist Norton?
In the previous life, Midi remembered very clearly that on the continent of Arad, there was a well-known and famous alchemist named Norton. And the "Shadow" series of weapons that all ghost swordsmen are eager to get their hands on are from Norton's hands - Slash, Afterimage, Swift Shadow, Light and Shadow, Demon Shadow, and Broken Shadow......
And the most famous, Shadowless!
In addition, when it comes to weapons other than swords, this master also has a deep attainment. Coupled with the research of alchemy, he has created a series of magic items with excellent effects and various alchemy methods for mass production of high-level weapons and equipment.
At that time, the Delos Empire even sighed in private, if it could get the help of this Norton master, it would be equivalent to getting the strength of a 10,000-strong army composed of high-level adventurers!
And that Norton, that Norton who can't see the end of the dragon, turned out to be this inconspicuous, and even quite funny little old man in front of him?
Midi couldn't believe it.
He immediately began to think back to all the information about Master Norton that had been collected and sorted out in his previous life, his origins, his early works, his preferences, tastes, and various alchemical ideas.
Then, in a casual tone, he began to confirm little by little to the old man in front of him.
As a result, at least eighty percent of the information is consistent with the life of the previous Master Norton in Midi's memory.
Although there are some differences between the remaining two percent, the biographical information was originally inferred by the adventurers themselves, and it does not fully correspond to reality. And in the process of talking to the old man in front of him, Midi even found that he could casually fill in all the missing details in the information of the previous life.
That man was Norton.
Norton, a master alchemist.
Norton, the creator of the "Shadow" series of weapons, is the only one to mass-produce high-level equipment.
Midi came to a conclusion.
Although his expression was still calm, at this moment, even as a reborn, Midi's heart was still turbulent.
In the year 985 of the Arad calendar, what is the most expensive?
Talent!
Norton, on the other hand, is the best of the best.
Only those who have truly used the "Shadow" series of weapons, and have truly commanded a legion completely armed with high-level alchemy equipment, can personally feel the power that the alchemy master and those whimsical ideas in his mind can bring.
Midi is now both a ghost swordsman in pursuit of strength, a commander in the process of forming a legion, and a nobleman who wants to stand his ground in troubled times. How powerful would it be for a master like this to join the Falcon Clan?
Just thinking about it makes Midi feel excited.
Soon, Midi discovered that a large part of the adventurers who had been captured and imprisoned by the Blood Blade were extremely skilled in craftsman skills. In the memory of Midi's previous life, there were several of these names who became masters in related fields!
Obviously, what the Blood Blade wants to do is also to recruit talents.
Taking advantage of the fact that most of the adventurers were gathered in Tucker Town, they directly attacked blatantly, and the efficiency was naturally very high. Midi roughly estimated that these people in front of him were probably the craftsmen of the vast majority of the registered adventurers in the year 985 of the Arad calendar.
It's just that these craftsmen are still in their infancy at the moment, and their reputation and talent are not obvious, and they have not attracted much attention. Therefore, the focus of the Blood Blade is more on the inheritance of the Jade Leaf and the Elven Royal Court, and the co-optation is just a matter of incidentality, and it is not too careful, and the means are mainly based on rough coercion and temptation, and the natural effect is very poor.
It can be said that the idea is correct, the details are missing, and the luck is very bad.
So, Midi picked up a big bargain.
Looking at these adventurers in front of him who are not good at fighting, but each has a skill, and is likely to be promoted to a master in a certain field in the future, Midi's heart has made up his mind.
"I have a proposal. ”
When Midi spoke, the originally noisy crowd immediately fell silent.
Although these captives had not witnessed the feat of Midi destroying the base with one shot, and single-handedly taking on a hundred.
However, Audrey's attitude, the awe of the elite of the Morning Star Mercenary Regiment, and the attention of the cadres of the five major mercenary groups who rushed to the first place, naturally made them feel the weight of the sallow-faced young man in front of them.
Midi glanced at the quiet crowd, cleared his throat, and said, "The Falcon Regiment is now recruiting, I wonder if you are interested in joining?"
