Chapter 545 Langton's Current Situation
After returning to Langton, Sandrion did not return to the Witch Workshop, but went to the Alchemist Guild very low-key and secretly.

As the president of the Alchemist Association, Sandrion is an absolute legend to today's alchemists.

Her return was a miracle to the alchemists, making them overjoyed, as if they had seen a myth resurrected.

However, because most of the high-level alchemists in the Alchemist Association had already gone to the North, only two or three housekeeping cats were left in the Alchemist Association of Langton. Therefore, even though they were very excited, no one could talk to Sandrion, let alone do anything for her.

"It's only been a hundred years. Has the level of the Alchemist Association regressed so much?" In one of the best laboratories in the Alchemist Association, Sandriyong couldn't help but complain about the current level of alchemists.

Although she also knew that it was not the fault of those alchemists.

On the one hand, all the high-level alchemists went to the North. On the other hand, because of the events a hundred years ago, the mystery of this world further declined. It is understandable that the level of alchemists is not as good as it was a hundred years ago.

But after seeing the level of top alchemy masters like Perfecto, they naturally became critical of these marginalized alchemists who stayed behind to guard their homes.

"Their level is as expected, but it's not a big problem. According to the plan, they can take on some simple peripheral work." Perfectcot still did not take off his hood, but spoke about the relevant matters in a flat voice.

Hearing what Perfectcott said, Sandrion looked helpless, but still nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. I will let them do what they are supposed to do and will not delay your plan."

At this point, Sandriyong couldn't help but pause: "Come to think of it, Heine and the others should have arrived by now, right? I wonder how their progress is..."

"For safety reasons, you'd better not contact Heine in person for the time being." Perfect reminded Sandrion.

"I know, I know! I'll send someone from the association to inform her." Sandryong waved his hand, as if unwilling to say anything more. He turned around and rushed to the test bench and started to get busy.

She came back to Langton not just to cover for Perfectoct, the content she was responsible for was also very important, and what she needed to do was no less than what Heine and the others did.

Beside her, Perfect began to sort out the documents he had brought back, selecting the parts that could be handed over to the alchemists in the Alchemist Association so as to save some time through them.

In the basement of the witch's workshop, the mysterious man had transformed the entire laboratory into what she was accustomed to, and dug a pit about seven meters deep in the center of the laboratory to house the huge bracket he made with his bare hands.

There is no way around it. Sandrion's laboratory is located underground. Although there is a clearance of nearly three meters, this height is definitely not enough for what the mysterious man wants to make.

So she had no choice but to dig downwards and carve out a space in the basement of the laboratory that was big enough to accommodate what she wanted to make.

Fortunately, this place is located underground, and the alchemy workshop was built a hundred years ago, so there is not much mess underground.

In addition, the mysterious man is also a powerful alchemist, so digging such a large pit is not a problem. The excavated soil can also be transformed into various materials by her alchemy, which saves her the effort of going out to purchase.

Although under the current conditions, she could leave it to Heine to purchase anything, but if it was not necessary, she still hoped to reduce the risk of exposure as much as possible. What she was going to do needed to be kept confidential and could not be exposed before all the preparations were completed.

Although she had made all kinds of preparations and arranged various covers for herself, she still needed to reduce the risk of exposure as much as possible.

In fact, even Heine had been staying at home as much as possible these days to avoid anyone noticing that she had returned.

A large number of people have migrated out of Langton today. Although there are still many civilians, the inner city area is basically deserted. The nobles, government officials and large factory owners have all left Langton and headed for the north.

Those who have not left yet are either those who failed to obtain the quota to migrate to the North, or those who are not rich enough or have not found a way to go to the North on their own.

Because of this, the city of Langton became much more depressed. There were almost no pedestrians on the streets, and dead homeless people could often be seen on the street corners, but no one dealt with their bodies.

The whole city has lost its life and vitality and looks like a dying city.

At this time, most of the people in Langton have already understood that the empire has abandoned its homeland and Langton. Although the church has built a large number of temple shelters in the city, as long as they go there, they can have a meal and will not freeze to death.

But for some people, they are still unwilling to leave their homes.

The church could only choose to respect these people and not impose any interference on them.

However, the church does not intend to interfere, but those evil sects do not intend to let these people go. They rely on various means to deceive people, and are now growing stronger and stronger.

Despite the threat of the Inquisitors, Church Knights, and the God-killing Armor shipped to the mainland by Perfectcott, the situation in the inner city was still tolerable.

But the outer city area is not so nice to look at, and the church really cannot manage such a large area and so many people. It is already amazing to be able to maintain a few churches and make them function as strongholds.

After all, the large-scale migration of population to the north weakened Langton quite a bit. Even though the church has now completely controlled the city, it is still difficult to eliminate the influence and activities of the evil god sect.

To put it bluntly, the activities of the evil cult are even more rampant than when Perfecto left.

However, this also indirectly fulfilled her wish, because Perfectcott chose to return to the North at that time in order to fish out these guys lurking under the water and then catch them all in one fell swoop.

Obviously, this is the reason why Perfect came back this time.

What the mysterious man is now making and building is a killer weapon to suppress these guys.
