Nolan was blocked by Wright, who was blocking the door to the bathroom.

"How?" Nolan smiled, "Toilet bullying? ”

In public, he wasn't worried about Wright making an out-of-the-ordinary move.

What's more, even if the other party breaks out, he also has the ability to protect himself.

"Little Brother Nolan really loves to joke."

Wright tugged at the corners of his mouth, "I'm here to congratulate you in advance, on becoming an official alchemist." ”

"Oh, thank you." Nolan took a step forward, and seeing that Wright still didn't let out of the aisle, he couldn't help frowning slightly, "Anything else?" ”

"After the exam, I wonder if you can come and sit with me?"

Wright cut to the point, "I've been in Peak City for so many years, and I've known a lot of people. Not only are they rich and powerful, but they are also willing to befriend a new alchemist, and getting to know them will definitely help you a lot in your future. ”

Nolan was unmoved, and replied: "If you want to talk about the alchemy workshop, you don't have to, I won't give in, I have lived there for ten years, and it is impossible to move out." ”

Seeing that he didn't give face at all, Wright's face also became gloomy: "I advise you to talk about it, I can make a condition that you can't refuse."

"Young man, the inheritance of the workshop is not as simple as you think, and the exchanges between alchemists are not only academic exchanges, but also human sophistication.

"We veteran seniors haven't lined up in this workshop yet, and you, a young man, have just joined the queue, is that appropriate? If you provoke the anger of the people and don't have a companion to make friends with you, you won't be able to get along in Uptown! ”

Nolan listened a little impatiently, he sighed heavily, shook his head, and said, "You useless old things, you should have exploded the gold coins a long time ago." ”

Wright's eyes widened in disbelief: "You...... What did you say!? ”

"Qualifications? Seniority is a, and your only strength is that you have eaten a few years more than the young people? ”

Nolan sneered, "The really capable people can't be reused, but the old guy who has no virtue and no talent has all the benefits, why?" Since you don't have the ability to grab the inheritance with me, you are willing to gamble and lose, and I feel ashamed for you for your scoundrel posture of coercion and temptation. ”

"You're ......!"

Wright was so angry with these words that he was speechless for a moment, and Nolan strode out of the bathroom and returned to the exam room.

He didn't want to say it so badly, but he was aroused by Wright's behavior, and there was a fire burning in his chest at this time.

In the world of the transcendental, the strong are respected, and whoever is strong is the boss, but in the circle of alchemists, it is different.

Because knowledge is difficult to quantify, this is an academic circle that places a high value on seniority, and it is generally believed that older people tend to have more knowledge and knowledge than younger ones.

The upper echelons of the Alchemy Society are all half-buried old men, and everyone always prioritizes the elderly when dealing with problems.

It was the same when he was an apprentice under Rathtie in the past, and he was called by his teacher as a cow and horse, and he was often bullied by an apprentice who was a few years older than himself, although their alchemy skills were not even half as good as their own.

He has been bullied and scared, and he has already secretly vowed that he will become stronger, so strong that he will not let others bully him in the future.

The hiccups during the break were not pleasant, and Nolan, who was aroused, seemed a little absent-minded during the final interview session, but becoming an alchemist was a sure thing, and it didn't hurt.

Until finally, Wilson opened a gift box, stood up with a smile, and placed the Ouroboros badge on his chest, announcing that he had become an official alchemist.

Everyone present applauded him, and Nolan looked down at the badge on his chest, and suddenly felt a sense of relief.

The goal I have worked hard for ten years has been achieved.

"You don't have to worry about the workshop inheritance."

As he left, Wilson patted him on the shoulder, "Your exam results are very good, you are still so young, you have learned to attach great importance to your training, and we will try our best to meet your demands within a reasonable range." ”

"Thank you, Lord Wilson." Nolan bowed slightly.

He was grateful to Wilson, and in this hierarchical environment, it was not easy for Wilson, as a director, to give young people a chance to compete.

Although it is not deliberately protective, but it can do business without prejudice, which is already an extremely rare "clean official" in this world.

"It's all as it should be." Wilson hesitated for a moment, then said, "Regarding the inheritance of the Alchemy Workshop, although you are the first in line, it may be a better choice for you not to inherit.

"You have not been an alchemist for a long time, and you have not yet accumulated contacts in the Society, and I am afraid that you and Wright will have a conflict over this matter, and he will secretly target you in the future.

"If you are willing to negotiate with him, I can mediate and help you get the best benefit. A slightly more remote house and a hundred gold coins as compensation, he should be able to get it. ”

Nolen's heart warmed, and he politely refused: "You don't have to worry about labor, it's just that I have lived there since I was a child, and I do have a reason not to back down." ”

"Okay, then come back to me about anything." Wilson didn't say much, "Your talent is very good, and the Alchemy Society needs to inject fresh blood like yours." In the future, we should study diligently and not waste our talents. ”

"I will live up to your expectations."

After a few pleasantries, the two said goodbye at the door of the Society, and Nolan called a carriage and returned to the Russ Gold Refining Workshop.

The identity of the alchemist and the inheritance of the workshop are already in hand, and this is just the beginning, and there is still a lot to be done.

One is to deal with the disabled girl Yuna, who has to help her connect her legs and restore her mobility.

One is to take over Rasti's legacy in its entirety, and it would be better to get in touch with the clients he had worked with before, so that the problem of the workshop's financial operation could be solved.

After the funding problem is solved, it is necessary to create more alchemy weapons such as "Magic Guide Duelist", which can change the embarrassing situation of alchemists with no brains and no force.

Even later, after confirming Yuna's loyalty, he can equip her with some heavy firepower and let her serve as her thug and bodyguard.

As a knight, she must be more capable of carrying and adapting to alchemy weapons than herself.

Noren sat in the carriage and thought about his future plans when the moving carriage suddenly stopped.

How can you get back to the workshop so quickly? He pulled the curtain curtain in confusion, only to find that the carriage had driven to a remote and strange place at some point.

Even the original coachman was replaced by a man with a hooked nose in a black cloak, who turned his head and smiled a sinister smile under his hood:

"Sir, you have arrived."

When will the substitution be made?

Nolan was startled, jumped out of the window without any hesitation, and the next moment the man in the cloak pulled out the long sword at his waist, and easily split the carriage in half with a single sword.

Such a hidden carjacking, such a sword-wielding might, the other party is a "knight", yes.

Nolan rolled around on the ground twice and straightened up, taking a quick look at his surroundings.

It looked like the carriage had driven into a dead end, and at the end of the dead end was an abandoned mansion, and they were facing each other in the courtyard, with the man in the cloak blocking the only exit.

"Wright sent you?" Nolan's voice was a little hoarse, hiding his hands in his sleeves.

After tearing his face with Wright in the bathroom, of course he thought that the other party would target him, even using force.

But I didn't expect it to be so fast, and I cut myself off directly on the way back.

Is this the action of the old thing? The first academic exchange between him and his fellow alchemists was really friendly and friendly.

"You know who you've offended, and you don't have to explain to me."

The cloaked man raised the tip of his sword, "Don't make useless struggles, I can make your death less painful." ”

Nolan was unmoved, and raised his voice: "Wright, if I were you, I would never be so anxious to let the other party die, the people of the Alchemy Society know that I have a conflict with you, and I will be assassinated as soon as I go out, and you will definitely not be able to escape from it." ”

His voice echoed in the alley, and no one responded for a long time, and he curled the corners of his mouth and sneered:

"Why, you have the courage to do all the indiscriminate things, but you don't have the courage to talk to me face to face?

"I know you're there, you've drawn a magic circle in the courtyard to block out sound, in order to make this thing clean. The magic circle is still very new, you must have wanted to kill me when you came out of the bathroom, I guess you'd love to see me die with your own eyes. ”

The late autumn wind shook the dilapidated iron gate in the courtyard, and with a creaking sound, the door of the abandoned mansion was pushed open from the inside, and Wright walked out with a gloomy face.

"I didn't want to kill you, I only planned to bring you to meet this friend of mine at first, and make you a condition that you can't refuse."

Wright looked at the young man in front of him with pity, as if looking at a dead corpse, "I admit that you did me off, and I was surprised by your performance in the exam, I can't let someone who can threaten me in the future live until tomorrow."

"Nolan, one last word for you: don't touch anything that isn't yours, so insatiable, even a genius will die early.

"As for what happens after death, you don't have to worry about it. Before leaving, I told the people of the Society that I was going out of the city to do some errands, and by this time my carriage should have left Linfeng City.

"I have a perfect alibi, and as for you, you will be dissolved in this barren yard, and not even a scrap can be found. When I return from outside the city, the alchemy workshop will be mine. ”

Wright narrowed his eyes as he spoke, wanting to appreciate the desperate look on his face.

Nolan smiled, his expression still calm: "Really? That really saved me a lot of effort, I heard that the grassland people are raging outside the city, and it is normal for an alchemist who has no power to go out to run errands and disappear and not return, right? ”

"It looks like your mouth is bigger than your head."

Wright sneered, "I could have given you a good time, but now I've changed my mind, let this friend of mine teach you what it means to respect your elders." He will crush your bones piece by piece and make you regret your insulting words from the bottom of your heart. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the man in the cloak turned into a black shadow and rushed straight towards Noren.

Nolan's left hand moved slightly, as if he didn't even have time to reach out to resist, and was lifted up by the cloaked man's one-handed grasp of his neck.

The weight of his whole body pressed against his neck, and Nolan's face instantly turned red, and his hands struggled to grab the cloaked man's left hand, trying to break his palm.

Looking at his embarrassed appearance, Wright suddenly laughed happily, how could the physical strength of a third-order knight be easily broken by an alchemist who had been trained for a long time?

"No, my friend, don't pinch his throat so quickly, start with his calves, I want to hear his screams."

Hearing this, the cloaked man retracted his left hand slightly, and his right hand put the sword into its sheath and stretched it out to Noren's left leg.

Just as his hand was gripping Nolan's ankle, he suddenly noticed that Nolan's left hand lit up with a purple light.

The purple light quickly unfolded into a magic circle, like a halo on his wrist, as a strong electric current burst out from Nolan's left hand, flowing through the left hand that touched the cloaked man's left hand and flowed through his body.

"Ahh

There was no time to react at all, and the man in the cloak let out a short, grotesque scream, and fell to the ground with convulsions.
