Chapter 39 Out of Control and Pollution

late at night.

The preoccupied Truman made a detour to the entrance of the potion workshop, and knocked on the workshop door.

The workshop does not have a shop or window open to the public. This door is usually only open to apprentices. Now that the apprentices are off work, Truman is knocking on the door. It took a long time before the door was opened, revealing the ' Here comes the poker face.

Hui Ji stared at Truman with a questioning expression under his gold-rimmed glasses. He didn't speak, but Truman seemed to hear the question of "what are you doing here" in his ears.

"I want to visit the teacher." Truman also brought a gift, a bouquet of roses, "Some things need to be consulted with the teacher in person, and it is too unsafe to use the phone."

Judging from Lilith's extraordinary power, tapping the world's telephone lines is a very simple matter.

Now Truman can't bet on whether Habsburg will notice the phone call between him and the workshop owner.

It is not polite to visit empty-handed, and the owner of the workshop has already 'swept out' Truman, so Truman prepared a gift.

When choosing a gift, he hesitated for a moment before buying a pineapple and a bouquet of roses.

He knew that both of these things were very expensive in this city, but after actually asking about the price, he was still shocked.

In department stores, pineapples cost 200 gold pounds each, and roses cost 3 silver ringgits each.

Pineapple is too common on earth, how could it be so expensive?

Truman inquired a bit before he got a piece of common sense.

That is, Lundini and even the entire Ansa Republic do not produce pineapples. The pineapples come from another continent far away. Because of its unique shape and difficulty in transportation, it is called the "fruit with magic power" or "the king's fruit". fruit'.

What magic?
Truman asked the clerk curiously, and the clerk said that many big men would come to buy pineapples and 'raise' them at home, so as to avoid bad luck.

So Truman bought 33 roses for 11 silver rings with the thought of 'it's hard to understand these weird customs in the countryside', and he held them in his hands at the moment.

This should be considered an expensive gift.

It does look impressive enough, and I will remember that when I saw the flower in Truman's hand, I nodded slightly and let Truman go in.

……

When Truman met the owner of the workshop.

The master of the workshop is dressing up.

Today she is wearing a golden dress full of green and delicate embroidery, the red smock on the upper body has long lace sleeves, and a triple pearl necklace on her snow-white neck, a huge emerald that can reflect the figure is embedded in the in.

Truman glanced at the white and plump chest and neck of the owner of the workshop, and felt that under the reflection of the string of pearl necklaces and emeralds, it was like a fertile white land waiting to be cultivated.

"I'm going to a concert right now, and you have 10 minutes," said the owner of the workshop, fiddling with his hair.

"You look beautiful today." Truman put down the rose first, and then went straight to the subject: "First, I want to know what is a sequence related to explosions, and what is a sequence that can transform into a deadly poisonous snake , and also, why is my avatar going out of control."

"The avatar is out of control?" The master of the workshop stopped dressing up, and she glanced at Truman with a little surprise and pity in her eyes, "Tell me about the 'out of control' carefully."

"I went through a battle, but in fact it shouldn't have happened." Truman said, he talked about the process of exploring the 'Monument of Mystery' last night.

Throughout the fight, Truman acted nothing like himself.

Compared with what happened to Anton in the past, Truman judged that he might be out of control, but he was unwilling to admit it, so he went to work first, and then asked the workshop owner to ask questions. What he thought was how to prevent this situation.

But the answer given by the workshop owner was rather cruel.

……

10 minute later.

The owner of the workshop got into her gorgeous carriage on time for her concert.

It was a circle of celebrities and aristocrats that Truman couldn't get in touch with for the time being. Those people didn't have to worry about making a living, and they dressed up to attend various banquets every day.

Before leaving, the workshop owner informed Truman that he wanted answers.

"The name of that sequence is 'Alchemist'. If you are asking the butler from Habsburg, he is the third rank of extraordinary."

The butler of Habsburg is an 'alchemist' of the third rank.

This news is worth tens of thousands of gold... Well, Wan Jin is exaggerating, it is worth at least 20 gold pounds, which is more expensive than the roses sent by Truman.

As for the sequence and technique of the black yarn.

The owner of the workshop said that Truman gave too little information, and she couldn't judge.

But that's not the point.

She said: "You're out of control because your 'share' is not enough to accommodate extraordinary power, and you are on the road that Anton turned into a monster."

Hearing what the owner of the workshop said, Truman's first reaction was not to believe it.

This is impossible!

"I have reminded you to do your best to increase the 'share', but you don't seem to take it to heart. Now, things have come to this point, please leave my workshop and don't cause trouble for me." The workshop owner said .

Like driving Anton to Habsburg to turn into a monster before, maybe the owner of the workshop guessed that Truman would also turn into a monster?

"You knew...that's why you kicked me out of the workshop?" Truman's mind was filled with uncontrollable flames.

She said: "This is not what I expected. The danger is unpredictable. There is no absolute safety on the extraordinary road. Truman, my dear student, remind you again, I have reminded you."

Yes.The owner of the workshop reminded Truman that if he didn't want to perform, he could increase his 'share' through that 'monument of mystery', but it was very difficult to do.

"Share" cannot be increased temporarily, and if Truman continues to let his avatar go crazy like this, some opponent may come to him, and the earth may not be able to isolate all pollution.

Truman asked: "Teacher, is there any other way?"

The workshop owner asked, "Are you willing to go into danger?"

Truman smiled wryly, "If you have to get involved."

The owner of the workshop said: "But it's not free, you know, everything has a price in the workshop."

Truman resisted the urge to rummage through his pockets, "I don't have much money at the moment, only about 8 gold pounds, can I get credit?"

"Yes." The owner of the workshop happily agreed.

Next, the owner of the workshop asked 'Hui Ji' to give Truman a box, because she was in a hurry to attend the concert, and 'Hui Ji' also sent Truman out of the house by the way.

At the entrance of the potion workshop, Truman looked at the box in his hand, which contained a special characteristic given to him by the owner of the workshop to prevent the danger of losing control.

How generous.Truman thought.
