The material collection area in the castle contains a total of about 300 kinds of magical beasts, 400 kinds of magical insects and 500 kinds of magical plants, divided into 60 areas, which are controlled by 60 young servants to provide various designated materials for the alchemist Hines. The number of varieties of Warcraft and Demonic Plants varies from region to region. In some areas, there may be up to 100 kinds of magic plants or magic insects, while in others, there are only one or two kinds of magic beasts. Those present in small quantities tend to be more dangerous and more difficult to collect.

Gong Hao's job is to take care of the forty-two varieties in Area 13, with a total of eighty-six magic plants. Most of these eighty-six demonic plants came from the jungle of Purgatory Island, and four of them were almost extinct in the Wind Continent, and even on Purgatory Island, there were only a few of them.

Once the person in charge of the caretaker accidentally kills a plant, maybe the entire Wind Roaring Continent will lose a species.

Today, Gong Hao is pruning a dragon's beard grass. The grass is like a spiritual creature, with branches and leaves swaying around like human arms. Its rhizome is red and has a strong corrosive nature, which can cause extensive ulceration if it accidentally gets on the skin, so Gong Hao must be careful when handling it.

"Hey, Huey. "A little head went into the shed.

Gong Hao turned around and saw that it was Fink.

"Why are you here?" asked Gong Hao.

Fink came in with a grin and said, "I'm done with my business, it's okay anyway, so I'll come and see you." ”

"Sounds like your job is easy. ”

"My luck was pretty good. Hey, did you hear that? Brent, the hapless guy, was put in Area 9. There's a terrible saber-toothed beast there. The saber-toothed beast's head alone was the size of a table, and its teeth were long and sharp, and wow, that thing was terrifying. Fink's tone was a little gloating, but the little one's way of saying it was still naïve.

He gestured his hand to the saber-toothed beast's head, his face full of exaggerated expressions.

This Brent had bullied Huey and Fink when he was on the boat, and at that time Gong Hao had not yet crossed, and the two little boys were beaten badly by Buyante, who was a head taller than them. Probably because he was more burly, Thack arranged for him to go to Area Nine to serve the fierce fourth-level demonic beast.

"Yes, I heard that, and I heard that Buyant cried on the spot. Gong Hao smiled.

"That's right. Fink triumphantly: "His job is to grind some powder from the saber-toothed beast's teeth every day, and I heard that it has a very magical effect." But the saber-toothed beast probably didn't like the way it was treated. ”

"Sabertooth Tooth Powder can be used to craft Mana Blocking Potions, and Sabertooth Beasts themselves can't cast any spells, but they're incredibly powerful, and most rarely, they're able to withstand most spell attacks. So its teeth are not only its weapons, but also its self-defense. Gong Hao said.

"How do you know?" Fink was amazed.

Putting the trimmed dragon's beard grass back into the pot, Gong Hao replied, "You know that I once served them at Baron Harden's mansion, Baron Harden likes to hunt, and there is a Red Leaf Mountain in Southwell Town, where he is a frequent visitor, and he brings his son with him. Once we found a saber-toothed beast on Mt. Momiji, and the ferocious guy bit three people to death on the spot. When the baron returned, he fell ill with fear. After that, he didn't go to Momiji Mountain again for half a year. That's when I heard about the sabertooth. ”

From Hue Igler's memory, Gong Hao found that Baron Harden was a good man. He is cheerful and generous by nature, but unfortunately he does not have much business ability. If it weren't for the support of his ancestral business, he might have gone bankrupt long ago, and now Baron Harden has nothing but that farm.

It's a pity, if the baron had been richer, maybe he wouldn't have been sold to this hellish place.

Well, instead of feeling sorry for the baron's downfall, it is better to be angry at his aunt's greed.

After pruning the dragon beard grass, Gong Hao can be regarded as having done the last job in hand.

Although this is only the second day of his arrival on Purgatory Island, Gong Hao still quickly mastered all the things that need to be paid attention to in his work, he was a top student in the chemistry department in his previous life, and he often had to participate in various chemical experiments, so he has a strong hands-on ability.

"Alright, I'm done, Fink, let's go out for a walk. It's okay, it's better not to stay here. Gong Hao said.

"What's wrong? I think this place is very good, you see how beautiful the flowers are. Fink pointed to a bright red flower not far away.

Gong Hao's face changed greatly, and he shouted: "Be careful!"

I saw that the beautiful flower pointed by Fink suddenly bloomed, and under the calyx was a large circle of dense sharp teeth, and then bit down hard at Fink's finger.

Gong Hao rushed over and threw Fink to the ground, the sharp calyx brushing Gong Hao's shoulder, tearing off a piece of flesh on his arm.

The flower stem is withdrawn, and the bloody piece of meat is swallowed, and the thick flower stem is like a person's neck, and you can even see the action of chewing and swallowing, and the human scalp is numb.

Fink's little face turned white with fright: "Oh, I'm sorry, Huey, I really didn't know that flower would be like this." ”

"That's the Bloody Orchid, a jungle killer that's almost extinct now, and it's the only one. Damn, I just fed it and it hasn't eaten yet. Gong Hao grinned in pain, the sensitivity of the young man's skin far exceeded that of an adult, and the wound from which a large piece of flesh was torn off was hot and painful.

Glaring at Fink, Gong Hao said helplessly: "Don't approach the plants here easily, you must know that not only creatures with fangs and claws are terrifying. ”

"Like women. "Fink Quick Interface.

Gong Hao looked at Fink in surprise: "Who told you?"

"My father, who used to be a brilliant businessman, was eventually swept away by a woman. He drank heavily because of it, and then he died, and I had no support, so I was sold here. Before he died, he told me that all beautiful women are terrible creatures. But I didn't expect a flower to be like this. ”

Gong Hao remembered the female intern who blew up the entire laboratory and sent herself here, and put his arm around Fink's head: "Yes, your father is right... And, even a not-so-beautiful woman is just as scary. ”

"But I still like to look at pretty girls. Fink smirked.

Gong Hao also laughed, his body shook a few times, and the injury was touched, so painful that he exhaled softly.

"Hey, you're badly wounded, you're bleeding a lot. Let's go to Lord Andrew, this is an alchemy castle with the best healing potions. ”

"No!" Gong Hao was shocked and grabbed Fink: "Fink, I'm your good friend, right?"

"yes, what's wrong?" Fink was a little surprised.

"I saved your finger just now, didn't I?"

"Maybe it's the whole hand...... Its mouth grows so big. Okay, what the hell are you trying to say to me, Huey, your injuries are too bad, you can't delay. ”

"Then listen to me, Fink, you owe me a favor. I want you to repay me now. ”

"I listen to you what you say I should do. ”

"Well, don't tell anyone about my injury. Remember, never tell anyone. ”

Fink looked at Gong Hao stupidly, and Gong Hao sighed softly: "Trust me, Fink, this place is not as simple as you think. I just don't want Andrew to know I'm useless. On the contrary, we want to do better than anyone else. ”

"Is that necessary?" Fink asked, puzzled, "We're just servants, and we won't be promoted even if we do well." ”

"It's necessary. Gong Hao affirmed: "Remember, Fink, don't come here to find me if you don't have anything to do in the future." If there's something, I'll go to you. I'm going to get to know the environment before I make a decision. ”

"Okay Xiuy, you just saved me, I'll listen to you. But does it really matter if you hurt you?"

"Trust me, flesh and skin, it's not a big deal. Gong Hao was sure.

—————————————————

If a person cannot see his environment clearly, then he is doomed to a lifetime of mediocrity.

This sentence was taught to him by Gong Hao's father.

No matter what kind of place Purgatory Island is, Gong Hao can be sure that this is not a philanthropist's paradise.

All the servants here were bought from the market by the Reims Empire, and the work here was not safe. If you don't work hard and can be sent somewhere else, doesn't that mean that only those who are passive and slack off have the possibility of escaping from danger?

This paradox does not exist in any intelligent world, neither the physical world nor the magical world.

And the castle on Purgatory Island has been around for twenty years, and it doesn't make sense that in twenty years there are not even sixty servants who are willing to work hard, there must be something wrong with this!

Since the people sent to the island are all underage and half-grown children, they are not deeply involved in the world, and many people do not understand the deceit of people's hearts. A simple lie can deceive everyone, but it is impossible to deceive Gong Hao. After all, his mind is already an adult.

Just to cover it up, many times he has to talk like a twelve-year-old child, but he always unintentionally shows an adult maturity. This made him a little out of place with the other teenagers, except for Fink.

Unfortunately, Fink is still naïve, and there are many things he can't tell Fink. He couldn't tell him that this place was probably pulling all the people who didn't work hard to put them to death, or doing something else with them.

No, it shouldn't be a death.

Sending young people all the way to kill them every month? Purgatory Island is not a place where executions are carried out.

So where did the missing young servants go, and what did they do? Whatever the answer, it must have something to do with alchemy experiments!

But what exactly is the experiment that requires so many people?

Gong Hao realized that in this world, alchemy is a huge system project, and his understanding of this aspect is actually too little and too little.

Before you find the answer yourself, you may want to study the mysteries of alchemy.

Sending Fink away, Gong Hao looked at the eighty-six demonic plants in the flower room, and he thought that maybe his understanding of alchemy should start with these plants.

The wound hurts!
