Chapter 373 [Finale]

Can’t take two gold coins?
Maybe more?
In the eyes of a young kid who had always lived in a world of hunger and cold, with poor material living standards and a low consumption level, two gold coins were more than he could earn in most of his lifetime.

The little brother stared at the picture he had drawn according to Qiao Bai's description for a long while.

He nodded and said with a serious expression: "Don't worry, I will find a way to find it for you!"

Even if he really couldn't take a photo, he would make one exactly the same!

For nothing else.

Just to be worthy of the two gold coins that Qiao Bai took out!
Qiao Bai had no idea what the kid was thinking.

After giving some instructions to the kid, Qiao Bai briefly talked about his next itinerary.

Tana Town.

Sanshili Town.

Ander City.

Twin Cities.

"Maybe there will be other accidents? If so, I will find a way to contact you and tell you."

The kid has no objection.

"These towns all have alchemists and well-developed transportation. I can contact you as long as you are there!"

"Don't worry!"

"I will definitely accomplish what you give me!"

It’s hard to say whether I feel at ease or not.

Qiao Bai also handed this matter over to the little brother.

Qiao Bai was not very interested in other places in Tana Town. What interested him most now was the alchemy workshop.

Qiao Bai plans to go and take a look.

"It sounds like this is a natural alchemist."

In the small room.

While changing into his clothes, Qiao Bai was thinking about the news he had just heard from the kid.

Then there was Jiang Yi’s attitude before.

Highly recommend him to Tana Town and Ender City.

Not surprisingly, most of the alchemy workshops and alchemists in these two places tend to be naturalists.

But it doesn’t matter to Qiao Bai.

He had no intention of becoming an alchemist.

Being talented is one thing.

But this doesn't mean he has to do it.

After changing into his own clothes and putting on a black cloak, the limited disguise version of Qiao Bai appeared on the stage.

After thinking about it, Qiao Bai took the cat and bug with him.

"grumble!"

"Jiji!"

The cat and mouse that Qiao Bai released looked very proud.

The expression of holding his head high and chest out is just short of having the word pride written on his face.

Well… Cat and Bug couldn’t bear it at all.

It's literally written on his face.

"Chichi!" Hum~
The big sister is not here!
Today, this dragon is the king!
Qiao Bai: "..."

Qiao Bai held his forehead helplessly.

He knew it.

What Qiao Bai knew more was...

Xiao Wu is making a fuss in the spiritual sea beast-controlling space!
This is normal for Xiao Wu.

cough cough.

Why did Qiao Bai choose Cat and Bug instead of Little Crow...

"Be good, be good."

"The cat-worm is even less noticeable at this time, and to be honest, it is more in line with the definition of a natural party familiar."

After being cultivated and modified to a certain extent, these creatures possess intelligence close to that of humans.

Compared to the little bird that only looks mighty in appearance, the cat-cat bug looks more like this.

Xiaowu: ╭(╯^╰)╮

However, although.

Understanding is one thing.

Being angry is another matter!

hateful!

When the little black sister comes out, she will definitely give this stinky cat a good beating!

Qiao Bai: "..."

Okay, okay.

He really can't treat this bowl of water equally.

So be it!

Just make do!
Otherwise, what else can we do?
Thinking of this, Qiao Bai sighed helplessly again and gave Maomaochong a look that said "May you be lucky".

The cat and cat were so happy that they were crazy that they didn't notice Qiao Bai's eyes at all.

Seeking happiness for yourself?

What's the point of asking for good fortune?
Isn't this its happy moment?
Qiao Bai bent down and raised his hand to pick up the cat and bug.

Then... push hard, take a deep breath, and push hard again.

Qiao Bai repeated this action twice before he finally picked up the cat and bug with great difficulty.

“This weight…”

Qiao Bai wanted to say something, but when he lowered his head, he met Maomaochong's tearful eyes.

Just ask Qiao Bai what can he do?
Cold!

Qiao Bai waved his hands helplessly: "Okay, okay, as long as it doesn't affect your weight, just make do with it for now."

The cat and bug are fine.

Tears can be collected at will.

Not a drop is left.

Qiao Bai chuckled.

He knew it.

That's it.

One hand was holding the catworm, and the catworm's soft belly was just stuck.

The cat-worm kicked its six legs uncomfortably.

Qiao Bai patted Maomaochong's butt with his other hand.

"You're almost there."

"Your scales are so thick."

"It can't be that uncomfortable."

"Jiji!"

The cat and cat hummed twice in protest, and the sound gradually faded away.

Maomao Chong: Well, it’s indeed okay!

Then let’s do this for now!

……

The location of the alchemy workshop is not difficult to find.

but……

"Hey! This is my third time here, but I still haven't seen that adult's workshop..."

"This is only your third time, and I've come fifteen times! And I never saw it!"

"Hehehe! I'm different! I saw it the eighth time! The master specially asked someone to recruit me into the workshop to organize the tools!"

"Isn't that just doing odd jobs?"

"...Humph! Not everyone is qualified to do odd jobs there!"

Qiao Bai: Huh?

Can’t see… ?
But isn’t this alchemy workshop right in front of us?

Qiao Bai looked at it again uncertainly.

Very interesting building.

A clever fusion of plants and parts.

The door looked a bit like the door of a large safe deposit box that Qiao Bai had seen before, with a large rotating handle.

If you look closely, you can see that there seem to be some patterns and designs carved on the door.

They are all plant textures.

Qiao Bai remembered the teleportation array he had encountered before.

That's also the alchemist's trick.

Qiao Bai couldn't help but question in his heart - No? Is this an alchemist or a magician?
This is unscientific!
Although taming beasts is not very scientific.

After all, it is still within the scope of Qiao Bai's understanding.

But these things in front of me...

“How many times does it take for an average person to see this master’s workshop?”

While the discussion around them was not very heated, Qiao Bai asked softly.

What Qiao Bai didn't expect was.

This question was like the spark that ignited the haystack.

The crowd instantly burst into great energy.

“My neighbor’s kid saw it six times!”

"That's nothing! My aunt's nephew's girlfriend saw it five times!"

"That's too many! A classmate of our village teacher's son was seen four times! It is said that he even became the apprentice of that adult!"

"You're dreaming! You want to become my apprentice after seeing me four times? Rumor! This must be a rumor! That master said it himself, three times is the limit! I will never accept anyone who exceeds this number as my apprentice!"

"…Maybe that classmate is an exception?"

"Bah! Go ahead and talk nonsense!"

"I actually know! An orphan in our village saw that master's workshop twice, and was then accepted as a disciple by that master!"

Everyone who was comparing themselves to each other just now shut up.

twice.

This is really the limit of their cognition.

Anything faster... they really had never heard of it.

I can’t even imagine it.

Is there really someone who can see through the alchemy array test set by that adult in one go?
Totally unimaginable!

For the gifted...it takes two times, right?

Qiao Bai, who asked the question at the beginning, hid in the crowd, said nothing, and quietly absorbed the information he needed.

At the same time, I am glad that I made the decision in the beginning.

so far so good.

He didn't say it directly, otherwise it would be difficult to explain.

Seeing that the crowd was about to calm down and show signs of dispersing, Qiao Bai brought up another topic at the right time.

"When does that adult usually come out?"

"I don't know if I'll be lucky enough to meet you."

Oh wow.

"Young man, you've asked the right person! I've seen that gentleman with my own eyes!"

"Bullshit! What have you seen? If you have the guts, tell me the time!"

"Why haven't I seen him before? I saw that adult once a month ago! He just went out to meet his friends!"

"Bullshit! That gentleman usually doesn't come out from the main gate. He has a special teleportation array for visiting friends!"

There was a lot of noise.

More information is revealed.

Qiao Bai simply integrated it.

I go out, yes, but rarely.

They have a special teleportation array.

At least there are places I often go to.

However, when encountering some special situations, they will still find other ways to go out. People who meet the alchemist are like him in this situation.

in conclusion.

It is basically very difficult to meet someone by chance.

Qiao Bai's idea of ​​taking a look at the familiar was also dashed.

The possibility of encountering it is really small.

Qiao Bai couldn't help but smack his lips.

Tsk.

Is it that exaggerated?

It can’t be that every alchemist is socially anxious, right?

Just like a beastmaster.

A beast tamer with social anxiety.

There are also those beastmasters who are very ostentatious and like to show off themselves.

The diversity of humanity is fully demonstrated at this time.

and so……

Qiao Bai doesn't want conspiracy theories.

But my brain won’t allow it.

A bunch of special situations flashed through Qiao Bai's mind.

Each one is quite interesting.

But to correspond to the current situation... you still need to have the opportunity to see it with your own eyes and get close to a real alchemist, so that you can get the most information.

Thinking.

Qiao Bai quietly retreated from the crowd.

Among a group of people wearing black robes, Qiao Bai's departure alone did not attract the attention of others.

……

Just leave.

Qiao Bai is not a procrastinator.

He found the way to travel in this era.

Luxury version, teleportation array, requires 10 to 100 gold coins to reach the nearby town.

Qiao Bai has money, but he doesn’t want to use it this way, so he decisively passed.

The cheap version, a horse-drawn carriage, costs between 10 copper coins and 100 silver coins to travel to nearby towns.

Depending on the distance of the place you are visiting.

The luxury and comfort of the carriage.

The extent of security measures.

Qiao Bai felt that this mode of travel was most suitable for him.

No money, walk.

Generally, people who are not really poor and have no money will not choose this method.

At least Qiao Bai would definitely not choose such a cheap way, even if he could secretly use small jellyfish as a means of transportation.

This is just in case!
What if something unexpected really happened?

Qiao Bai looked around and finally chose the best-equipped carriage to travel to Sanshili Town.

"100 silver coins, guaranteed to give you the most comfortable service!"

"The best meals will be prepared for you throughout the day and night!"

"Please rest assured!"

Qiao Bai nodded indifferently.

By the way, this time Qiao Bai is not being taken advantage of by someone who is stupid and rich.

A gold coin.

Change for 1000 silver coins.

There is a high probability that the carriage business will still make a profit, after all, it can sell it when the market price is high.

This was not within Qiao Bai's consideration.

It's not like he really wants to settle down in this era, and he has to spend money frugally.

80 gold coins... No, 75 gold coins and 1000 silver coins. Should be enough for his future expenses, right?

Qiao Bai nodded.

There is no sense of setting a goal for myself at all.

Get on the carriage to Sanshili Town.

Qiao Bai sighed again: The technological points of alchemy are really located in some weird places!
No bumps throughout the journey!
There wasn't even any feeling of being on a vehicle.

It's just that the speed can't match.

Otherwise, Qiao Bai would feel like he was on a high-speed train!

Of course.

Because Qiao Bai chose the most expensive package, the comfort and sense of space are still more comfortable than the business class seat on the high-speed rail.

……wrong.

Looking at the food being brought in, Qiao Bai silently made a cross in his heart.

Not as good as not as good as not.

This is really not as good as the high-speed rail.

Although the food on the high-speed rail is expensive, it is understandable.

And the taste is pretty good.

what is this?
Qiao Bai no longer wanted to talk.

"Honestly, if I really want to settle down in this era, I think I can become the richest man in the world just by my instant noodle cooking skills."

The instant noodles he cooks are better than this stuff!
Qiao Bai can do more than just cook instant noodles.

He can cook some simple meals.

Living alone requires this kind of versatility.

no way.

I don't want to eat and there is nothing else to eat.

You can't just eat the cat strips, right?

This is not Qiao Bai's style either.

"That's it. I won't have any thoughts after I'm full." Qiao Bai slumped in the carriage, stroking the cat and bug from time to time.

Then Qiao Bai came back to his senses.

No no no.

I can't continue to be paralyzed like this!
Who knows when we will return.

What if he spent no time in the mountains, but a thousand years passed in the human world?
of course.

Qiao Bai felt that this situation should not happen.

It is normal to have a certain amount of surprise at some point in time.

But he couldn't waste this time.

Practice!

meditation!

If you can't let your pets exercise, you have to find a way to make yourself stronger!
The stronger, the better!

Take a few deep breaths.

Qiao Bai calmed down his chaotic mood and began to meditate deeply.

Qiao Bai, who had not been meditating, discovered... huh?!
It doesn't seem to be his illusion?

It is easier to enter a meditative state here, and once you enter the meditative state, the results will be better!

Not a subtle change.

It's to the extent that it can be felt very clearly and intuitively!

Qiao Bai couldn't help but open his eyes wide.

Although he didn't know what was going on, he would not waste this opportunity.

hurry up.

Practice quickly.

What Qiao Bai didn't know was that while he was meditating, there were obvious noises coming from outside the carriage.

The people who were driving the carriage and protecting Qiao Bai all had surprised expressions on their faces.

They looked at each other.

"What's inside..."

"Master Alchemist?"

"That shouldn't be the case. Don't alchemists use teleportation arrays when they travel? Our carriage service... they don't even look down on it!"

"Perhaps this is the alchemist who is so unique?"

They lowered their voices and discussed in a low voice.

As for the option that Qiao Bai has no money?

They never thought about it.

Let’s not talk about whether Qiao Bai is an alchemist or not.

The fact that Qiao Bai can take out a gold coin and doesn't care about the change means that Qiao Bai is definitely not short of money!
This was not a guest they could afford to offend!

But if Qiao Bai is really the master alchemist, can they also get close to this guest?

Everyone had many associations.

"Ah-"

Qiao Bai sneezed loudly and rubbed his nose.

Who is talking about him behind his back?
Li Gan?

Qiao Bai shook his head.

Qiao Bai didn't think his good brother had the courage to do so, so he thought this possibility could be ruled out.

"But..." Thinking of Li Gan, Qiao Bai sighed again: "I don't know what the situation is over there."

Has he been missing for more than a day, or is he in a coma?
If he really disappeared...

hiss.

It shouldn’t be anything too big!

Qiao Bai thinks that sometimes it is better to think about things in a positive way.

……

As expected by Qiao Bai.

This alchemist from Sanshili Town is also a person who understands things in a simple way but has profound insights.

We basically never see each other.

The only thing that Qiao Bai found interesting was the alchemist's alchemy workshop.

Compared with the alchemy workshop in Tana Town, it has more of that flavor.

"Then there's no need to go to Ender City, let's go directly to the Twin Cities."

Qiao Bai touched his chin and made a decisive decision.

Anyway, he wasn't planning on running into Jiang Yi again.

Just go directly to the Twin Cities where he is more interested.

Get on the carriage again.

This time it took longer.

It took Qiao Bai three full days and three nights to get from Sanshili Town to Twin Cities.

Looking at the tall, metallic-colored city wall in front of him, and the thick, huge, ancient and yet fresh city wall, Qiao Bai couldn't help but reveal an expression of surprise.

This... this is really...

"Shocking!" Qiao Bai murmured.

What shocked Qiao Bai even more was...

There was no one guarding the city gate.

Qiao Bai: "?"

The carriage drove in, and Qiao Bai took a closer look and discovered the problem.

gunfire.

Formation.

There were also things that Qiao Bai couldn't identify with his knowledge, all of which were engraved on the city walls.

"It's worthy of being a big town." Qiao Bai said with emotion.

The staff outside the carriage nodded upon hearing this: "Twin City is the most prosperous town around here!"

As the staff member spoke, there was a hint of pride in his tone.

Qiao Bai became a little curious.

"What about Ender City?"

"Cough cough." The staff member coughed, his voice sounded a little vague, and after mumbling for a long time, he finally spoke.

"Ender City is also powerful... but it's different from the Twin Cities!"

"no the same!"

The staff's tone gradually became a little excited.

Qiao Bai was not frightened.

He nodded: "Well, although I have never seen Ender City, the Twin Cities in front of me do look very powerful at first glance."

The staff gradually calmed down after listening to Qiao Bai's words.

He showed an embarrassed expression on his face: "I am really sorry for scaring you, my guest."

The carriage passed the inspection and entered the Twin Cities normally.

There were many similar carriages in front and behind the carriage that Qiao Bai was riding.

They are all travelers coming to the Twin Cities.

The carriage stopped at the dealership and Qiao Bai got out and prepared to leave.

at this time.

The staff member who had spoken a little excitedly before took three or two steps forward and approached Qiao Bai. He seemed to hesitate for a moment, but still spoke to Qiao Bai.

"My dear guest...if you really appreciate the atmosphere of the Twin Cities from the bottom of your heart, I suggest you never go to Ender City."

Done.

Without waiting for Qiao Bai to ask any questions, the staff member turned around and left.

Qiao Bai glanced at the staff member, and finally turned around and left without saying anything.

As for what the other party said...Qiao Bai did not comment.

You can listen to it.

It is up to him to make a judgement.

Whether or not to go to Ander City and when to go to Ander City are all his personal decisions.

Qiao Bai patted his clothes and turned to enter the Twin Cities.

Old rules.

First find a place to live, then wander around and get some information.

By the way, let's see if there is any channel to learn about alchemy.

Qiao Bai's abacus made a clacking sound.

Just as I raised my foot, before I could take a step forward, the scene around me suddenly changed.

shhhhh--

Countless streams of light passed by Qiao Bai.

There were also strange phenomena in the sky.

Gold, red, black... meteors of various colors, carrying blazing flames, suddenly smashed down towards the earth!

Rumbling--

Qiao Bai seemed to be able to hear a loud noise.

The sound of crying.

Countless noisy voices mixed together.

A colorful light flashed before Qiao Bai's eyes.

He stretched out his hand as if he could touch something, but in fact he could touch nothing.

Qiao Bai took a deep breath.

He opened his eyes wide and looked at the scene in front of him.

What Qiao Bai didn't notice was.

Without his knowledge, the pets in the spiritual sea beast control space came out one after another.

It wasn't until Xiao Wu threw herself into his arms that Qiao Bai finally reacted.

"...Why did you come out?" Qiao Bai was confused for a moment.

No?

Can the pets at home enter and exit his spiritual sea beast-controlling space freely?

It seems not all.

Before, Xiao Wu seemed to be able to enter and exit the beast-controlling space in his spiritual sea freely.

But Qiao Bai sensed it in advance and suppressed the eager Xiao Wu.

This time Qiao Bai let down his guard.

Xiao Wu seized the opportunity.

Qiao Bai looked down at Xiao Wu with a helpless look on his face.

Xiao Wu opened his big golden-red eyes and looked at Qiao Bai eagerly.

"Chirp!"

"Choo Choo Choo!"

The bird is worried about you!

The bird wants to see you!

Qiao Bai was immediately speechless.

Who can refuse such a caring from the heart? Qiao Bai doesn't know whether others can do it, but Qiao Bai can't.

I can't refuse even a little bit.

Qiao Bai held Xiao Wu in one hand and picked up the catworm with the other.

"Chirp!" The cat and cat hung happily on Qiao Bai's elbow, with a strange expression of joy on its stick-drawn face.

really!

The beastmaster's favorite is this dragon!
Even at this time, I haven’t forgotten Benlong!

Xiaowu: "..."

╭ (╯ ^ ╰) ╮

Birds are not jealous!
Birds are the beastmaster’s favorite!
When you are trying to keep things simple, you must do it thoroughly.

Qiao Bai had no choice but to turn himself into an exhibition stand.

The little white snake tightly wrapped around Qiao Bai's thighs and waist.

The little jellyfish seemed to be hugging Qiao Bai from behind.

"Angel" and Jianmu Lily stood on Qiao Bai's left and right, more like Qiao Bai's guards.

"Is this... the scene of the arrival of mythical creatures from ancient times?" Qiao Bai looked at the strange phenomenon in the sky and the phenomenon of the times, and couldn't help but mutter.

The little crows also stared at the scene without blinking, as if it had been accelerated.

No.

not always.

Qiao Bai looked at the giant beast that emerged from the surging sea water.

A giant beast awakened from the sun.

The huge creatures awakened from the mountains and rivers... perhaps they originally came from this world?

It's just that it has been in a state of deep sleep.

What awakened them?

Qiao Bai's gaze couldn't help but fall on those alchemists, and Qiao Bai already had the answer in his mind.

A fight between two factions.

Accumulating little by little, drop by drop, it eventually became the mountain that fell on the head of the times.

Qiao Bai let out a long sigh.

There are still doubts that have not been resolved.

But now for him, the problem is with...

"no?"

"How am I going to get back?"

Qiao Bai was overwhelmed.

Everything around him didn't seem to have much impact on him.

But this doesn't mean that Qiao Bai can take action now.

Don't dare to move.

I was afraid that I would accidentally step into the time that was passing by so quickly.

Qiao Bai doesn't think that all this is fake now.

It couldn't be more real.

Right here.

The image that flashed by quickly like a slide suddenly stopped.

Qiao Bai was stunned for a moment.

He still stood there, motionless.

Everything around him calmed down, and Qiao Bai dared to take a cautious step forward.

It was this step that seemed to make the people around him notice him.

"who is it?!"

"come out!"

"How could a stranger sneak into the alchemy workshop?!"

"Wait! These familiars..."

"No? It doesn't seem to be a familiar?"

A group of people looked at Qiao Bai and the pets on Qiao Bai with vigilant eyes. They held their weapons tightly, as if they would rush up and control Qiao Bai if they disagreed with them.

Qiao Bai, who was rarely treated as a bad guy: "..."

He opened his mouth to explain.

But after a long time, I didn't know what I should say.

It seems like no matter what you say, something is not quite right?

"Uh..." After thinking for a while, Qiao Bai asked, "Where is this?"

“Is it still the Twin Cities?”

Qiao Bai couldn't be sure how much time had passed during the slide show.

Maybe ten or twenty years.

Or maybe one or two hundred years.

The accident happened too quickly.

So fast that people can't react at all.

After hearing Qiao Bai's question, those people showed no sign of letting down their guard, and instead looked at Qiao Bai with even more caution.

Several people looked at each other.

Although they didn't speak.

But even Qiao Bai, who was watching, could roughly guess what they were communicating about.

Arrest him?
Grasp!
Qiao Bai was helpless.

If something happens, you can't blame him!
He is not the kind of person who is so good-tempered as to sit back and wait for death.

Waiting to die does not fit his aesthetic.

Before the two sides started fighting, a fierce scolding was suddenly heard.

"Stop everyone!"

Qiao Bai didn't react yet.

When the others present heard this, their actions paused for a moment.

The expressions on their faces became respectful and serious.

"Your Mightiness!"

"Why are you here!"

"Did the noise outside disturb you? We'll hurry up..."

Before they could finish their words, a figure in a black robe slowly walked out of the darkness.

Qiao Bai could clearly feel that a pair of eyes were falling on him.

Qiao Bai raised his head and looked in that direction.

There was obvious confusion in Qiao Bai's eyes.

"It's really you."

The other party spoke.

Qiao Bai: "?"

The other party lowered the huge hood that came with his cloak.

A strange, old face, like every elderly person, appeared in front of Qiao Bai.

"You are...?" Qiao Bai said uncertainly.

He was sure.

He doesn't know such a person.

But the way the other person looked at him made him feel that... maybe there really was some connection between them.

…That’s not quite right, is it?
Qiao Bai thought about the people he had come into contact with during this period, and compared them one by one with the old man in front of him.

Qiao Bai frowned.

"Little kid brother...?"

The old man opposite smiled softly when he heard this, his laughter was filled with some happiness and some calmness.

"I didn't expect you to recognize me."

"It's been so many years."

"Little brother... is that how you called me in the beginning? It's quite interesting. I like it."

Little brother... Oh, no, it seems that it is not appropriate to use this name at this time.

The aging child had an old face and weathered eyes, but when he looked at Qiao Bai, there was still vitality and smile in his eyes.

The others around were already in a state of long shock.

Staring at the scene in front of me in amazement.

They feel as if they are stuck in the environment.

Otherwise, how could one imagine something so outrageous?

"Well... do you want to go somewhere else to talk?" Qiao Bai glanced at those people and said something similar to what he said before.

But the difference is.

This time, Qiao Bai realized that the old kid had great fame and prestige, and those people all admired the old kid.

Seeing their idols reveal a side they have never seen before...it must have been a huge blow to these people deep down.

The old kid smiled and nodded.

"You come with me."

"It just so happens that I have already figured out what I promised to find for you, and it's time to hand it over to you now."

As he spoke, the old kid turned and walked forward.

Qiao Bai quickly followed.

The others just watched quietly as the old kid took Qiao Bai away. They had no intention of stopping him, nor did they dare to stop him.

The further he walked with the aging kid, the more strange expressions appeared on Qiao Bai's face.

It wasn't Qiao Bai's illusion.

Qiao Bai felt that the road under his feet... seemed a little familiar?
Including the surrounding architectural style, it seems a little familiar.

Is it because of the alchemy workshop?
He had not been deep into the alchemy workshops of this era.

But in his own time, due to archaeological reasons, Qiao Bai had come into contact with the existence of an alchemy workshop.

If the structure inside is similar, it would not be strange to feel familiar.

The old kid walking in front didn't know what Qiao Bai was thinking.

He just said softly.

"A hundred years have passed, and you are still as young as ever."

Qiao Bai: "???"

Etc., etc?

when?
A hundred years have passed?!

The old kid didn't need Qiao Bai's answer and continued to talk to himself: "After I received your request, I have been looking for that fragment."

"Unfortunately, it's just as you said, very difficult."

“It’s like a stone sinking into the ocean.”

"A rock thrown down cannot make a single splash of water."

"If it were me now, I would definitely give up, but back then I really didn't want to, wasn't willing to, and wasn't willing to."

"So I thought of a way to become an alchemy apprentice."

The old kid quietly talked about his thoughts back then.

Qiao Bai didn't say anything.

Just listen quietly.

"I spent a year and a half to get the information, and it cost me two hundred silver coins in total. Just like you said, it was too expensive."

"That was a world I could never have imagined until you told me."

Two hundred silver coins were used to gather information.

There are no results yet.

It is impossible to say that I am not distressed.

Seeing that it would be unreliable if he kept throwing money at it, the kid made a hard decision - to become an alchemy apprentice!
This is a very difficult thing to do.

At least the kids in the past never dared to think about it.

He learned to draw just to have a little dream in his heart.

After not being able to find it for a long time, the little brother had some different thoughts.

His identity and social status are too low.

The circle that can be reached is too low.

If he were a little higher and more powerful, would he be able to completely receive Qiao Bai's commission?
That's a gold coin!
A gold coin that saved him from a life of being naked and hungry!
I can’t say whether the young boy is a good person, but he is definitely a person with a conscience.

then.

The young boy went to take the assessment for alchemy apprentices.

Children aged ten and above can participate.

Test eligibility.

Testing capabilities.

Three days, one gold coin at your own expense.

A whole gold coin!
For the high and mighty aristocracy, it was not much at all, and even a little too cheap.

But for the people at the bottom of society, it is almost a wish that will never be realized in their lifetime.

Because they don't accept coins.

No more, no matter how much you give.

I want real gold coins.

But the kid does.

He went.

It went even more smoothly than Xiao Haige had imagined.

“I passed the test.”

"I am the most intelligent of all the children, a perfect decahedron."

When everyone else is just one or two faces and can’t even form a three-dimensional figure.

He is a decahedron.

It shocked everyone.

And immediately received the best treatment - being snatched up by a group of alchemists!
Everyone wants to recruit this hidden gem under their wing and make him their most powerful disciple!
then……

"I chose a natural alchemist."

Qiao Bai: "?"

kindness?
Right?
Qiao Bai looked left and right.

Make sure his eyes aren't misleading.

There are clearly mechanical patterns on the wall!
Qiao Bai was very sure.

He probably had some knowledge of these two factions in advance and knew what they were about, so he wouldn't make any mistakes with the pattern.

The aging kid didn't look back.

But just by hearing the rustling sounds made by Qiao Bai looking left and right, he could tell what Qiao Bai was thinking.

Thinking of this, the old kid raised the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly.

He grew up after all.

"Yes, I joined the natural party because I thought you were there."

The old kid said without hiding anything: "I was thinking at the time that even if I couldn't find the relevant information by myself, at least I could find you and help you."

Provide news.

provide help.

Let Qiao Bai walk more smoothly on this road.

But the kid never expected it.

When I said goodbye to Qiao Bai, it seemed like it was a farewell forever, and I never saw Qiao Bai again.

"I also found the alchemist represented by the badge at that time, but I still couldn't find any information related to you."

Just a few words.

Only one apprentice said that there were many teacher's badges in the space bag sent out.

There is no relevant news.

The kid firmly believed that nothing would happen to Qiao Bai.

At the same time, I thought... Qiao Bai looked stupid, so it was not impossible that something really happened?

"Don't think that I don't know you are complaining about me in your heart just because you don't say anything." Qiao Bai said helplessly.

The old kid laughed and said, "Just know it if you want to. I don't mind!"

People are old!

Thick skinned!
Qiao Bai: "..."

Qiao Bai really has no way to deal with this kind of person whom he doesn't care about at all for the time being!
"Later..." After the old boy laughed, his tone became melancholy again.

And then?
He has outstanding talent and a bright future. He has never forgotten Qiao Bai's entrustment, but he no longer pursues it as the most important task like he did when he was a child.

Instead, once you have the chance, look it up.

Everything depends on fate.

until……

"Before I officially became an alchemist, I came into contact with the core of the natural school, and I couldn't accept it."

"It was a cruel and irresponsible act towards life."

"The so-called naturalists...are nothing more than people who will do anything to achieve their ambitions and goals."

The old kid brother snorted.

Qiao Bai sighed slightly: "You are very good."

Qiao Bai could fully imagine the situation at that time.

An alchemist who has joined the Natural School, is about to grow up, and has considerable potential.

Before actually going on stage, I faced an unacceptable aspect.

Can the natural alchemist willingly watch him make money?

It's impossible that something doesn't exist!
therefore.

Disputes arise.

It must be quite difficult for the young boy to face all this.

But… “You still did it.”

"Yes, I did it." The old kid chuckled, "But what I didn't expect was that those people's retribution came so quickly."

Great changes occurred in the world.

Mythical creatures appear.

Irreconcilable with alchemists.

The mechanical school is slightly better.

There is not a single survivor from the Natural Sentence.

But these mechanical alchemists are not very happy either, as their living space is constantly being squeezed.

At this rate...

"Extinction is also our destiny." The old kid said without exaggeration.

They, the mechanical school, just died a little later than the natural school.

It's not much better.

"We had a very difficult, painful, internally struggling time."

"And what has kept me going through this time is the commission you have never completed."

Qiao Bai was stunned for a moment.

Hey?
"Yes." The old kid nodded and took Qiao Bai through a corridor. After turning a corner, another corridor appeared.

Keep going.

"I can't find the scraps of news you hoped I could find."

"I can not be reconciled."

"Even if it means death, I will go to death without any burden."

"So I tried to find out about the fragments again, but unfortunately, there was no trace of them."

hiss--

Qiao Bai has a headache.

Really not?
Why did he feel that if he wanted to go back, he might really need to use this thing!

Just then, Qiao Bai heard the old kid brother say, "I've come up with a solution."

"What is it?" Qiao Bai couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"Since I can't find it, and I'm an alchemist, why can't I make one myself?" The old kid stopped and looked back at Qiao Bai.

Qiao Bai also showed a surprised expression.

wait wait wait?
Can it still be like this?

The old kid brother told Qiao Bai with his actions: Yes! Of course! Why not!
It’s done!

It's exactly the same!
The old kid brought Qiao Bai to a huge house.

Behind him was a tightly closed door.

The old kid didn't walk back, but took out a complete disc-shaped object from a pair of equipment in front of him.

Qiao Bai confirmed it at a glance.

That's it.

The fragments that brought him to this era.

At this moment, it finally becomes complete and becomes new.

Qiao Bai took a deep breath.

I never thought of that!

This thing was actually made by a kid?

real or fake?

What kind of closed loop is this?
What shocked Qiao Bai even more was... the tightly closed heavy door.

Qiao Bai held the disc and looked at the door, his eyes flashing with emotions that others could not understand.

Only Qiao Bai knew how shocked he was.
That was the place where he encountered the "ultimate weapon" before!
Behind that door is the ultimate weapon!
His "angel"!
When Qiao Bai looked at the aging kid in front of him again, his eyes became different.

He did know.

The ultimate weapon came from the hands of those powerful alchemists at the end of the alchemy era.

It is a masterpiece that culminates mechanical alchemy.

But Qiao Bai never expected it.

It turns out that Brother Xiao is the one who seems to be in charge of this operation?

The older kid also noticed that Qiao Bai's eyes had stayed on the gate for too long: "What's wrong?"

Qiao Bai thought about it, and then asked softly: "What is behind the door?"

The old kid stared at Qiao Bai for a long while.

Finally, a meaningful smile appeared on his face.

He looked at the gate with an indescribable melancholy in his eyes: "What is it..."

"This is probably the last ambition and expectation of our group of people..."

Look forward to.

I hope the Alchemy Age will not decline.

Look forward to.

I hope their descendants can still walk on this land.

Looking forward to...

The old kid brother shut up.

Qiao Bai already understood what he meant.

"I..." Qiao Bai thought he might be able to say something, but what he didn't expect was that as soon as he opened his mouth, the feeling of weightlessness and time flying appeared again.

The disc held in Qiao Bai's hand began to heat up again.

Qiao Bai: "!"

Is he going to put it back on?!
The old kid also turned around quickly and looked at Qiao Bai.

Just a glance.

The two people were separated by two eras.

Qiao Bai witnessed the decline of the alchemy era with his own eyes.

Alchemy completely became a relic of the times and could not be passed on by anyone.

The "ultimate weapon" that was created was no match for those mythical creatures, and even waking it up was an extremely difficult and shaky task.

Looking at the "ultimate weapon" that was about to be destroyed, Qiao Bai couldn't help but tried to attack again.

What Qiao Bai didn't expect was.

The attempts that had always failed before actually succeeded miraculously this time?

He took the body of the Ultimate Weapon.

Finally, the weapon was born with a soul.

Standing there quietly.

Fell into a deep sleep.

"...I got it already?" Qiao Bai opened his mouth wide, unable to utter a complete sentence for a long time. What shocked Qiao Bai even more was...

“Can we skip the hard work of collecting materials?”

He swore.

He really didn't think it would be possible at first!

Never thought about it at all!

This is really unexpected!

The "angel" flew out from Qiao Bai's spiritual sea beast-controlling space, and an eyeball began to merge with a larger mechanical eyeball.

Without waiting for Qiao Bai to take two more glances at this strange sight.

His attention was deeply attracted by other scenes.

The golden crow hangs down.

Kunpeng flies into the sea.

The golden dragon falls.

That was the demise of the mythical creature.

They defended the dignity of this land with their lives and completely changed the pattern of an era.

And then……

It is the coexistence of humans and supernatural beings.

Many feelings flashed through Qiao Bai's mind.

He wanted to see more, but suddenly his vision blurred.

Total darkness.

Before Qiao Bai could react, he felt a figure rushing towards him heavily.

"Brother Qiao!"

"Fuck!"

"I almost thought you were dead!"

Li Gan's noisy voice suddenly rang in Qiao Bai's ears, and a moment of confusion flashed in Qiao Bai's eyes.

"…What happened? How long has it been? Why are you so excited?"

Li Gan patted Qiao Bai's shoulder hard and said loudly, "You just disappeared suddenly! It's been a whole hour! If I can't find you again, I'm really going to go out and call for help!"

"You almost scared me to death, you know that!"

Qiao Bai: "..."

Less than an hour?
Are you kidding me?
He felt that he had stayed in the space where time and space flew by for more than an hour!

"Let's talk about it after we go back first."

"Good good!"

Li Gan had no objection.

It really tests one’s heart!

It’s better to go back quickly!

Qiao Bai took a look at the angel in its complete form in the spiritual sea beast-controlling space, and was once again trapped.

Yep.

What just happened was definitely not a dream.

That's all true!
So... next he needs to digest it well!

……

“A gathering of elites!”

“The stars are shining!”

“This is an era of genius!”

"There are countless shining stars that together illuminate the night sky of this era."

"But there was one that caught everyone's attention!"

“It is the star, the moon, and even the sun! It is the everlasting light of the times!”

"Light up the sky above our heads! Light up the starry sky and the sky above our heads!"

"he is the one--"

"The greatest professor of pet evolution research in this era, a world treasure!"

"He is also an extremely outstanding ninth-level beastmaster!"

"He led his pet to save the world!"

"It provides us with a more peaceful and stable living environment!"

"Let's shout out his name together—"

Countless shouting voices rang out, gathering together to form a name!
The name of the era!
Glorious name!
Whether you are on the road to becoming a beastmaster or a professor of pet evolution research, even if you are just an ordinary person, you have definitely heard of the name

"Qiao Bai!!!"

Qiao Bai!

A name that opens a new era!

Never forget!
