Chapter 407: Hometown of the Alchemist
"Master, hurry up, hurry up, I see a city in front of me." Alice was floating high in the sky, with a big balloon inflated under her body. The Yeck. Yeck floats in the air with his eyes closed, looking bulging and fat, very funny and naive.
Bing Zhixie rented a mount and headed off.
After leaving the previous city, they had already walked two days away from the border of the Ukhanate. The city of Arant, known as the hometown of alchemists, is adjacent to the Ukhanate and is adjacent to the Ukhanate. Not too far.
In fact, the hometown of alchemists is not just a city of Arant, but also includes other cities and villages around it, and even the entire country of Cosilua has such a reputation.
Gosilua is located to the east of the Ukhan Kingdom, and part of its territory borders the Demon Moon Empire. It is a landlocked country with neither its southeast, northwest nor the sea. It is said that as early as hundreds of years ago, Alante City became famous for producing several recognized top alchemists in the world for several generations. Later, it gradually developed and evolved into the entire area being keen on alchemy. With the vigorous promotion of the royal family and the government, a nationwide craze for alchemy gradually formed.
During the period when alchemy developed rapidly, new methods and techniques for alchemy were constantly introduced. In a short time, Cosilua, a small country in the north, suddenly took the lead in alchemy. The forefront of the world. Gradually, alchemists and warlocks from all over the world came here, and it became known as the hometown of alchemists. Especially in the past one or two hundred years, many alchemy experts in the Holy Garden came from here, pushing the alchemy here to a new climax.
"Yeke, let's go down and go to Master." Yeke, who was swollen to two or three meters in size, slowly shrank and fell down. Alice jumped on the back of the hexagonal reindeer bought by her master, and spread out a small formation between her fingers to take back Yeck. But Yike didn't want to and got into her clothes. Alice twisted her body and giggled: "Naughty little thing, don't tickle me."
Yeke got out of his clothes, stuck out his little head and licked Alice's neck After a few seconds, he went back to sleep.
Alice sat behind Bing Zhixie and asked: "Master, do you know alchemy?"
"I know a little bit," Bingzhixie said.
“You can do it too?”
Bingzhixie said: “As a magician, how can I not understand alchemy? Although I have no interest in developing in that area, through alchemy, I can learn more about alchemy. Understanding the properties of each element is important for understanding the properties of elements. It is indispensable for magicians."
"Really? Why has no one asked me to learn it before?" Alice scratched her head and asked: "Master, do you know what the world is like now? Who is the most famous alchemist in the world?"
Bingzhi smiled evilly and said, "I want to take a test. Me? I haven't paid much attention to the alchemists, but I still know the more famous ones. In addition to the sages of the Holy Garden, I have heard of three people's names. One is the dwarf who created the 'Holy Eye Golden Shield'. Hulda. He combined the top forging skills of the Neanderthals with his The 'Holy Eye Golden Shield' created with one hundred and seventy years of alchemy technology is known as one of the most powerful shields in the world. Even the current Great Sage of the Holy Garden admired the craftsmanship of the 'Holy Eye Golden Shield'. Never stop talking." (P.S. Dwarves usually live to be over three hundred years old.)
"Yeah." Alice nodded and said, "I have not only heard of this man, but I have also met him. He is an uncle who likes to drink. Two years ago, my father invited him to the palace as a guest and asked him to be my crown prince brother. Make a matching sword."
Bingzhixie said: "You have met many big shots."
"Haha. "Alice smiled proudly: "Master, go on, what else?"
Bingzhixie said: "The second one is Sophia, who is known as the Queen of Alchemy. She has been in the past few years. In the past ten years, hundreds of weapons and armors have been forged, each of which can be regarded as a valuable treasure. However, a few years ago when she was sixty years old. He announced that he would no longer work on alchemy and would spend the rest of his life."
He paused and said, "The last one is the most famous alchemist in the world. His name is Mosan Caesar. The royal mentor of Corusia and the supreme sorcerer of the land of alchemists. Ever since he became the supreme alchemist of the city of Arant, Li Tichang's alchemy competition has changed the alchemy competition that was once every five years to every two years. Over the years, many outstanding alchemy talents have been selected for Columbia and other countries. Many colleges have invited him to give lectures, and I heard that Kulantin College is the place he goes to most.”
Alice said: "I have seen this man before. He is a fat, white man. He is a very kind and close uncle. He is not at all like other big shots in the world who like to put on airs."
"You have a deep impression on him."
Alice smiled: "Of course, he hugged me and let me pinch his chubby chin to play with."
"Ha." Bingzhi smiled evilly.
Alice said: "But, Master, you know these people very well."
Bing Zhixie said: "It's not that I want to know. It's just that when I was in the tavern, what I heard the most was the news about these famous people in the world. They always become the favorite topics of discussion among ordinary people."
The two of them rode a hexagonal reindeer, chatting about the things that the famous alchemists had refined, and unknowingly arrived outside the city of Arant.
"Master, we are here." Alice jumped off the reindeer and looked at the three or two people entering the city of Arant in groups: "Are they all here to participate in the alchemy competition?"
Bingzhixie said: "I'm afraid alchemists from all over the world who are famous and think they have some strength are here." "Ah, with so many people coming to Arant City, can't they pretend to be so many? People." Alice said worriedly.
Bingzhi smiled evilly and said: "Although Arant may not be as good as Debiles in the Demon Moon Empire, it is also a world-class metropolis."
Alice said excitedly: "Master , let’s go in quickly, I can’t wait to see the exercises What does the golden game look like?”
“Let’s go then”
Driving the six-pointed reindeer to the gate of Arant City, several city guards were entering the city one by one. The people received a city tax of ten silver coins per person.
Because there were so many people entering the city, there was a small queue. Alice pulled Bing Zhixie's hand and said, "Hey, Master, look at that person in front."
Bing Zhixie looked at the person she pointed at. He was wearing a star-blue magic robe. There was a hexagram mark on the back and cuffs of the magic robe. This person was chatting with a female mage next to him. Bing Zhixie said: "Isn't he the guy named...Hughington who deceived you? What a coincidence. You beat him up in the city last time, wasn't it enough?"
Alice snorted: "I'm not that stingy. But look at him now, wearing such nice clothes, he must have spent the money he cheated. The sister next to him must have been deceived by his sweet words. , people like this, Master, we must teach them a lesson ”
“What do you want?”
Alice smiled mischievously: “Look, there is a money bag in his right pocket, Master. Remember that you are very good at stealing things, so steal his wallet.”
Bing Zhixie didn’t know what to say. When he was in the Demon Moon Empire, he just came from Debiles. I escaped and had no money, so I had to steal money to stay in a hotel. But now, it's good that Alice remembered what happened that time and actually asked him to steal again.
"Master!" Alice shook his hand and said, "Go away. This man is so annoying. He made me embarrass myself in front of you. Go teach him a lesson. Please, Master!"
Bing Zhixie said: "You still said that you are not stingy, didn't you just lie to you once, and you still hold a grudge to this day. To put it this way, when we were in the Big Blue Crystal Tower last year, I didn't Have I lied to you too?"
"You are my master, he is not, he is a nuisance!" Alice rolled her eyes: "Master, if you don't go, I will punish Ellie tonight. Come on. Alice is becoming more and more naughty. I really need a spanking, please spank me." She hugged Master's arm and said coquettishly.
Bing Zhixie thought about the day when Alice pestered him to be abused, and he was depressed for a long time, so he had to say: "Okay, I'll give it a try." He quickened his pace and walked forward.
Hughington had already arrived in front of the city gate and was about to take out the money in his pocket to pay the city tax.
Bing Zhixie saw the opportunity and bumped into him: "Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I sprained my foot."
"What happened? I bought a new one, very expensive. , can you afford to pay for the damage?" Hullington angrily pushed Bing Zhixie to the ground and cursed a few times.
Bing Zhixie lowered his head and said nothing. He got up from the ground, patted the dirt on his body, and left immediately. In order not to attract attention, he put away the black magician that Alice had bought before and put on very ordinary clothes.
Back to Alice, Bing Zhixie threw the money bag away: "Here it is."
Alice took the money bag but was very angry: "Master, he just Pushing you to the ground, why didn't you hit him! I was so angry that I was going to teach him a lesson!"
"Stop!" Bing Zhixie pulled her collar and dragged her back: "It doesn't matter if you scold me. Don't let Master help you do something like this next time, otherwise Master will be really angry."
Just as he was talking, Hullington, who was about to enter the city, finally discovered that his money was missing...
