Perfume Alchemist

Chapter 397 The fellow meets fellow
Ahao and his party left the house on the back of the Scar beast outside the city of Fez.It was not dark at this time, and they arrived in Fez earlier than expected.

After everyone left the beast house, Lisa locked the wooden door, climbed to the giant beast's ear and whispered a few words, and then quickly slid down the soft ladder.

After the ska behemoth let out a deep roar, it slowly turned around and walked on the way it came.

"Let's go, it will find its own way back." Lisa clapped her hands, looking at the back of the giant beast leaving with some reluctance.

After everyone rested for a while, Blancpain led the five people to the gate of Fes not far away.

On the way, Ahao walked up to Lisa curiously: "How did you communicate with it, can it understand human language?"

Lisa smiled and shook her head: "I can't understand human language. But when it was not as big as it is now, it often went back and forth between Fez and Quattro, so it knows the way. It only needs some specific instructions. Stimulated by sounds and gestures, it can walk on the 'path' according to memory."

Hearing this sentence, Ahao's curiosity was aroused again: "How did it become so big? How did this wooden house be built?"

"There are a lot of breakthrough achievements in it." Lisa looked a little proud. "To put it simply, I have always wanted to breed camels that are bigger than their parents through generations of cultivation."

"After many generations of breeding, the camels I have raised on my farm are already twice the size of the common camels in Erak."

"I can understand this process." Ahao was a little puzzled: "But this ska beast is more than twice the size. Is this the size that can be raised through normal breeding?"

"Ska is special. Even among the large camels I have bred, its potential far exceeds that of all other camels. Its acceptance of the [mutagen] is several times better than other camels."

"Mutage?"

"[Giant Transformation Mutagen], this is the breakthrough bioalchemy achievement I mentioned earlier." Lisa blinked at Ahao, "This is a secret, I can't ask about it later."

"Okay." Ahao nodded understandingly, "I probably understand the enlarged part, but I still don't know how this house was built."

"Biology evolves, and nature degenerates. The original purpose of the hump is to store water and energy. But when the camels from generation to generation receive sufficient nutrition for a long time, the function of the hump becomes negligible."

"At this time, as long as you add a little inducement, the camel's body will be very willing to actively abandon the hump."

"During this process, I artificially filled the hump with other substances to squeeze the original function of the hump. As long as the two processes of camel giantization and hump degeneration are maintained at the same time, a 'house' can be slowly built."

"So subtle?" Ahao glanced at Lisa in surprise, "It's not an easy task to maintain a balance in this dynamic."

Lisa's expression was complicated, and there was a trace of bitterness in her tone: "It's really difficult."

"However, this is exactly the charm of bioalchemy. Let living things grow and change according to their own wishes. This sense of accomplishment is much stronger than kneading metal."

"Changing other creatures into what you want. That sounds like the power of the gods."

"Hahaha." Lisa smiled and hammered Ahao's chest, "It's an exaggeration, I'm just a 'gardener' at best. I water and fertilize the living beings, pruning and cutting the leaves."

Gardener?
Lisa's metaphor touched Ah Hao slightly.

In the book brought to him by President Sandy, the introduction to bioalchemy is relatively one-sided and superficial.But the chat with Lisa gave Ah Hao a better understanding of the genre of [Bioalchemy].

Cultivate, induce, change, evolve, degenerate.
Illya should be quite interested in the knowledge of bioalchemy, right?

Appropriating Lisa's idea of ​​carrying out these experiments on animals to plants may provide more possibilities for Illya's [Gate of Flowers] to advance.

Modifying plants to create flowers that can live in people?Or create other flowers that can be stored?

It's interesting to think about it.

Ahao was already looking forward to meeting Ilya after returning to Agadi.

However, after entering Fez, something unexpected happened to Ah Hao.

"What? The arcane star gate is not open?" Blancpain's astonished voice came from the front.

The staff in front of him quickly explained: "It's restricted, not closed. At present, there are still airships that can pass through the arcane star gate."

"Then give me six tickets to Agadi, the sooner the better."

"The tickets to Agadi are currently on hold."

"Where can I buy tickets?"

".All of them have been discontinued."

Blancpain's eyes were wide open, and he said in an inconceivable tone: "Then you still say that the Arcane Stargate is not out of service?!"

The staff member nodded and continued: "Yes, it's just restricted, not suspended."

"."

Blancpain was silent for a while: "Then give me six."

Ah Hao couldn't stand it anymore, he stepped forward and pulled Bao Po back: "Stop! Stop talking!"

Blancpain scratched his head, there was a beauty missing from the brainstem.

Ah Hao stood in front of the staff: "When is the Star Gate restricted?"

The staff breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied, "Last night."

Why is it exactly this time?
Ah Hao narrowed his eyes, and immediately had more guesses in his mind.

"Since you said that the star gate is only restricted, it means that there are still airships that can pass through the star gate?"

"That's right." The staff member nodded quickly.

"Then when will the next airship to Agadi depart?"

“Tickets are sold out”

"I know, I'm not going to buy a ticket, I'm asking when it will leave."

"Wait a minute." The staff no longer stood stiffly in place, but quickly flipped through the information, "The schedule shows that an airship will depart for Agadi at nine o'clock tonight."

"Yeah." Ah Hao nodded, but didn't say much.

But Blancpain came up again: "Since there is an airship that will depart, why can't I buy a ticket."

Now, even Karina, who has been the quietest, couldn't bear it anymore: "Well, vice president. Is it possible that the airship tickets are sold out?"

"Then how do we get to Agadi?" Blancpain was puzzled.

"There is a way." Ah Hao sighed, and led the crowd to the corner of the ticketing hall, "I'll go to the relationship to see if I can get the tickets, please wait for me for a while."

Jonas looked at Ahao in surprise: "Can you get a ticket?"

"it should be OK."

Regarding the mysterious passenger in the team, Jonas has never understood who he is.I only know that he is probably from Agadhi, and the vice president respects him more.After hearing Ah Hao say that he could get a ticket, he couldn't help giving this person a few high glances.

Luke seemed to think of something: "Sister Natasha, can you help me?"

"She can't, but the people she knows should be able to."

Ah Hao waved his hands to the people behind him: "You guys wait here, I'll come as soon as I go."

After speaking, he quickly left the ticketing hall.

Natasha has only been in Fez for three days, counting the time, she should go to inspect the branch of AH perfume today.

Just asked her to ask the Seychelles Chamber of Commerce if she could get a ticket.By the way, let's see if she knows the reason why Stargate doesn't sell tickets.

Ah Hao recalled the memories before parting, and found the temporary residence that Natasha had booked.

Natasha undid the first button of her blouse.

"I probably know something about the star gate." She took a few breaths, as if trying to relieve the shortness of breath caused by running fast.

When Ah Hao found the hotel where she was staying, she was still having dinner outside.But as soon as the sandbox sounded, she hurried back.

"It is said that the star gate has some glitches again. Last night, the astral scene when passing through the star gate became extremely bright and clear. The illusion bubble on the airship can't cover it up."

"For the sake of stability and safety, most airships are not allowed to pass. The only ones that are still flying are special airships for arcane masters and other extraordinary people. After all, there is no need to cover up their stars. things of the world."

Ahao nodded: "Then I want six tickets back to Agadi, can you help me get them? Through the Seychelles Chamber of Commerce or something."

"Yes." Natasha continued to sip a large glass of water calmly, "But the Seychelles Chamber of Commerce doesn't have this ability. The sister I just met at the Fiss Offensive Association can help with it."

Natasha took out a piece of light red letter paper, wrote on it a few times, and then let go.The letter paper was automatically folded into the shape of a paper airplane, and flew out of the window with a flutter.

"You will go to the ticket hall later, and someone will take you on board."

Ahao glanced at Natasha in surprise: "It seems that the harvest has been very rich after expanding the network so quickly?"

"That's necessary." Natasha puffed her chest out, "I've already decided on the location of the branch. But I guess you won't just be satisfied with the expansion of secular stores, right?"

"I secretly went to the Offa Fragrance store you opened on Offa Avenue. I think you will open that store in Erak sooner or later."

"So I made preparations early. I met some people in the Arcane Association under the pseudonym, so that it will be convenient for you to serve you in the future."

Natasha's tone was both humble and triumphant.

"Well, thanks to you this time. In the future, if you encounter problems, you can come to me, and I will try my best to solve them for you." Ahao still followed the principle of equivalent exchange, and tried not to prostitute Natasha herself for nothing. Business contacts.

Natasha smiled and lowered her head modestly: "It is my honor to help you."

Ahao chatted with Natasha about the Fez branch again.Natasha is still planning to stay in Fez for a while, and she wants to do the decoration design of the branch herself.Ahao naturally had no objection to this, and asked Natasha to do it boldly.

After chatting for a while, Ah Hao hurriedly said goodbye and returned to the ticketing hall, ready to catch the airship.

Under the anxious and irritable eyes of the whole hall, Ahao led the people behind him and boarded the airship back to Agadi grandly.

"Didn't you say you won't sell tickets? Then how did they get in?" Someone was puzzled and asked loudly to the ticket seller beside him.

The staff could only wipe off their sweat and explained: "They are VIPs who have bought tickets a long time ago, and they can also pass during special periods."

Lisa looked at this scene, and looked at Ahao in front of her with some astonishment: "You are more powerful than I imagined."

Ah Hao waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing.

After chatting with Natasha, he already knew that this flight was specially prepared for extraordinary people.The six people present already met the boarding conditions.They just lack access to tickets.

After stepping on the airship, Ah Hao immediately felt the surrounding atmosphere freeze.

——The eyes of most people on the deck converged on them.

To be precise, it converged on Blancpain's face.

Ah Hao looked around, and immediately burst out laughing.

Many of the people on this airship were familiar to him, and their clothes also had their own unique style.

——They are all "refugees" who just escaped from Quattro, or "betrayers".

Blancpain stepped forward and slapped the shoulder of the person in front of him: "Osborne! What a coincidence, are you going to Agadi too?"

The man had his back to the gangway and was chatting happily with a glass of champagne in his hand.

After Blancpain's voice came, his hand shook suddenly, and the champagne glass shattered to the ground.

He turned his head and looked at Blancpain in horror: "Vice President? You came here anyway?"

Blancpain laughed: "We are going to Agadi to raise materials for rebuilding Quattro. Are you too?"

Osborn looked around in embarrassment, and everyone he saw was covered with scarves, and quickly walked to the deck steps, preparing to get into the cabin below.

Ah Hao rubbed his brows a little dumbfounded.

How did this person become the vice president?

Could it be that in the world of alchemists, as long as they can blow up, that's enough?
When I met my colleagues on the airship running away, everyone could laugh and laugh and accuse each other of being "shameless".

But if you meet Blancpain and others who are dedicated to rebuilding Quattro, it will be so embarrassing that your toes are on the ground.

Seeing that no one was willing to rescue him, Osborne could only open his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

Then, as if he had made up his mind, he said viciously, "That's right! I'm also planning to go to Agadi to find a way to rebuild Quattro!"

"That's great!" Blancpain beamed with joy, "Your earth and stone refining technique is very suitable for reconstruction work."

"There are not many people in the Alchemy Association who are as dedicated as you." Blancpain patted Osborn on the shoulder sincerely, "Come, let's sit together and let's talk about future plans."

After speaking, he dragged Osborn to the bench by the deck without any explanation.Osborn's expression was stiff and his movements were sluggish, like a forced puppet.

The two ladies, Lisa and Karina, were holding hands and secretly laughing.Luke and Ahao looked at each other face to face.

Ah Hao looked at Jonas beside him: "You seem to have known Blancpain for a long time, has he always been like this?"

"That's right, he is such a seemingly stupid, but actually shrewd person." Jonas actually looked at Blancpain with some admiration.

"To attract a defector to become one of Quattro's rebuilders in a few words, other people really can't do this kind of skill."

"Ah, is that so?"

Ah Hao was a little stunned.

It turns out that Blancpain's scheming is so deep?
