The career of an evil alchemist started when he picked up the Mad Sword Girl

Starting from the second time, most people actually understand that no matter how many times they try, the results may not change.

Although I don't know how they achieved their goal, I'm afraid the other party is really no longer here.

But the nun couldn't accept it.

She had been waiting for this day for too long, and she had waited so long that she couldn't bear it, but now, she had such a result.

For three whole days, she didn't sleep at all. She would have to restart the formation every few hours. The corpse she brought turned into blood, then gradually turned black and smelly, until the magic power inside was completely exhausted and the flesh and blood withered completely. She finally stopped when she turned into a dark mud and could no longer be used as a medium to activate the magic circle.

But now, even in front of everyone, the frustrated girl no longer had a smile on her face, only that chilling gloomy pressure.

Everyone could see that she was in a bad mood.

very bad.

As for why...

For the Holy Religion, the gains and losses of everything need to be calculated.

There are clear budget indicators for this goal.

And this time the magic circle almost completely spent the budget. This time it returned without success. Not only will everyone from top to bottom be punished, but it will also be almost impossible to use the power of the Holy Cult to continue searching for the target. .

The Holy Religion measures gains and losses, but this nun is different.

Almost everyone knows that their nun has a very exaggerated obsession with this escape target, and is determined to win this operation.

But the result.

They were fully prepared, risking the reputation of the holy religion, and even used master-level spell formations to search for traces of the target, but found nothing.

How would their nun accept such a result?

Therefore, even though they knew that their nuns had been repeatedly doing useless work, they remained silent and just stood there for three days. When they were really sleepy, they only dared to sleep standing with their weapons on their backs. a while.

Fortunately, they are all soldiers of the Crusaders, the elites of the empire. Otherwise, if they were ordinary soldiers, they would have fallen into pieces.

And today, it seems their torture is finally coming to an end.

"Where are the Crusader soldiers?" the nun asked, her voice full of exhaustion and unwillingness.

When the soldiers heard this, although they were almost sleepy to death, when they thought that this might be a signal that they were about to escape from the sea of ​​suffering, they all became excited and responded in unison.

"Everyone has a rest. We will clean up the scene tomorrow and return to the church after that..."

After saying that, the blond nun turned around, walked with heavy steps to her own lounge, and closed the door.

Looking at the closed lounge, the old man who had secretly slept behind the soldiers slightly narrowed his eyes and curled his lips meaningfully.

Seeing this, a soldier on the side came up and asked in a low voice: "Old Priest, do you think Lord St. Mellens will just give up? I heard..."

"Shh, don't talk nonsense," the old man quickly interrupted the soldier, "How can I not know what you are spreading among yourself?"

"Ah haha, that's right," the soldier scratched his head.

"Alas," the old man sighed, "the holy religion's budget for handling this matter has basically been spent completely this time, and we can basically say that we have gained nothing. In this case, it is basically impossible to apply for more funds. The above There is a high probability that she will shelve this matter directly. Lord St. Mellens... Well, given her character, I am afraid she will not give up. But whatever else she plans to do in the future, she can only rely on her own connections and resources to do it privately. It has nothing to do with us and the Holy Religion."

"That's right..." the soldier nodded, "Speaking of which, old priest, do you think it's possible that the person we're looking for is just hiding? Although the formation used this time is powerful, it's not omnipotent, right? ?”

The old man glanced at the soldier, smiled disdainfully, and said: "Yes, it is not omnipotent. No matter formations or magic, nothing is omnipotent and has no shortcomings. This is often said by people. Not fake."

"But the formation we are using this time, if we want to avoid its detection within the range, even if we die, we will burn it to ashes, and the ashes will be found. The only way is to completely change the nature of our flesh and blood."

"There are many ways to achieve this in a short time, such as turning people into elements, spirits, anti-life forms, etc. But you have to know that we have been here for three days, and at least we have activated it during this period. More than ten spells."

"If you want to keep people in these states for such a long time, you have to have at least a special-level or above-level warlock or wizard to do it."

"If you want to say that there is such a number one person who is secretly dealing with us, not to mention how low the probability is, even if it does happen, with our current budget, if we want to find such a person, it is better to save money."

Having said this, the old man raised his hands and stretched his waist.

"So, think less about what you have and what you don't have. You can do whatever you want with the money from above. If nothing happens, go and clean up the scene. Finish cleaning up early and leave early. I miss the beer in Jorgis City very much. …”

Lu Lin felt like he had had a long dream.

In the dream, he was still an ordinary college student. He attended school during the day and learned various alchemy techniques. At night, he sat in an Internet cafe with his friends and played black and white games.

They were playing League of Legends for a while and Dota 2 for a while, but no matter which one they played, he always chose the Alchemist.

In the chaos, he seemed to remember that one of his buddies asked him why he wanted to play Alchemist. He also said that playing this was good for learning, and then they all started playing Alchemist.

Then, he vaguely remembered that there seemed to be five alchemists driving BKB into the opponent's face in the Summoner's Rift. Those alchemists were all riding ogres with double swords and carrying gas tanks on their backs.

That was to say, he was in a dream. Faced with such a chaotic scene, he didn't feel anything was wrong. Instead, he kept having fun.

However, while enjoying himself, Lu Lin suddenly felt that something was wrong.

He looked down and was shocked to find that the Internet cafe was flooded.

At first glance, the water only covered his ankles, but in an instant, the water quickly grew taller and finally reached his neck.

Lu Lin was frightened and hurriedly wanted to ask his friends for help.

But when I turned around, I saw no friends nearby.

Turning around again, this is an Internet cafe.

Lu Lin raised his head and saw that the fog in the sky blocked all vision. He was sitting in the water and couldn't see anything at a glance.

No matter which direction, there is only thick fog.

Lu Lin opened his eyes wide, trying hard to see something from the fog.

Even if it's just a little outline that can guide the direction, that's fine.

But nothing could be seen, only the endless fog, the fog getting thicker and thicker, the fog getting closer and closer, the fog that almost completely submerged Lu Lin...

"Well!"

Lu Lin opened his eyes suddenly.

Looking at the black inner wall of the alchemy cauldron and the half-kettle of water in front of him, Lu Lin was in a daze.

Ah, yes, he remembered.

He jumped into the useless sleeping spring of King Gulan.

correct!

Tanuki!

Lu Lin quickly lowered his head.

I saw Tanuki's entire face buried in the water, her hands and feet hanging limply, floating in the alchemy cauldron as if she were drowning.

Lu Lin was startled, and quickly reached out to grab Numi's shoulders, trying to lift her out of the water.

The result.

The support was raised, and even Tanuki raised his head at the same time.

For a moment, the four eyes met.

Tanuki blinked expressionlessly, his eyes still as blank as usual.

But looking at this scene, Lu Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I didn't drown, and everything was as usual.

The entire petrification process was successfully carried out without any accidents.

Thinking of this, Lu Lin finally relaxed completely and loosened his grip on Li Mi's shoulders.

Unexpectedly, when he let go, Li Mi splashed his face into the water again.

"Ah this..." Lu Lin was stunned. He was about to do something, but he felt two hands wrapping around his chest and hugging him.

Then, Rumi kept burying her face in the water, and leaned over like a floating jellyfish. She put her head on Lu Lin's chest, hugged him like this, and stopped moving.

Lu Lin was stunned for a while, then turned to look out the window.

In fact, he really wanted to go upriver to see if the people of the Holy Cult had withdrawn.

but……

Ten days have passed. If you can avoid it, you should avoid it. If you hadn't, the other party would have come long ago.

In this case, there is no need to rush.

Thinking like this, Lu Lin felt relieved and simply relaxed. He slowly lowered his raised hand, gently placed it on the top of Li Mi's head, and stroked her hair slowly.

Chapter 41 How do you meet the gangster Huo Bin when you go out?

"Hmm... King Gulan's Useless Sleeping Spring will turn into pure water after ten days. No wonder it must be used after being refined."

Lu Lin held the alchemy staff and used it to transfer the liquid in the cauldron to the outside of the house while observing the liquid.

As for Tanuki, he went to bed again to sleep.

When I first woke up, I didn't know whether it was because I had suffered from severe pain all day and wanted to act coquettishly. I hugged Lu Linlai for a while, but it was only a few minutes.

After that, she took the initiative to dig out the alchemy cauldron and stood by the rice pot.

The style remains the same as always.

Lu Lin was also hungry, so he immediately went out to cook.

Although there are no fresh ingredients available, the rice, potatoes and bacon from home can be stewed into a simple pot of bacon and potato rice.

After feeding Li Mi, she went to bed. As for Lu Lin, after eating, she dressed up as an herb collector and went upriver.

I went to the place and looked around. I saw that the shed built by the town guards had been removed, and the place where there was a cave had turned into an ordinary rock wall, as if no one had ever gathered nearby.

However, it can still be seen from the ruts and footprints left on the ground a little further away that the scene here before was not Lu Lin's hallucination.

Not surprisingly, the people of the Holy Religion should have used some means to directly restore the cave.

In this world where magic exists, just blocking a cave is not a big deal.

But since the holes are blocked, it means that the people of the Holy Cult have really left.

Later, Lu Lin went to the town to do some research, and the news he got confirmed this, saying that all the Crusaders had withdrawn about five or six days ago.

After inquiring about the news, Lu Lin went home.

Then he started to clean up the messy house.

The useless sleeping spring in the alchemy cauldron turned into clear water, and the floor damaged by the spell array would not repair itself.

Using readily available materials, Lu Lin managed to patch up the floor, but the noise became even louder when he walked past it. The creaking made people worry about whether any kick would directly cause the floor to squeak again. It cracks.

But Lu Lin didn't plan to take any more care.

Because he had already made up his mind to leave here.

Although the Crusaders returned in vain this time, no one knows whether they will come again in the future. Although the environment in this canyon is relatively safe, it is the territory of that empire after all. As long as they are in their territory Inside, Rumi will always be a fugitive and will never see the light of day.

Of course, even if you don't consider the issue of Li Mi, as far as Lu Lin is concerned, he and the Crusaders are at odds with each other, and if possible, he doesn't want to act under the eyes of these guys.

Although he is just a junior alchemist now, it will be a matter of time before his strength increases in the future and he will become famous. If these guys know about him and take notice of him, he will definitely be in trouble.

As for why he left "after"...

First of all, Lu Lin knew very little about this world. He didn't know which direction to go or which route to take.

Secondly, Lu Lin's current ability is really limited. Although he can barely find some sideways solutions to problems every time he encounters problems thanks to the many recipes he has learned, he has always felt like walking on a tightrope.

"You still have to find a way to raise enough money to get promoted, um..." Lu Lin opened the box where he kept his money and counted his savings.

Currently, there are a total of three gold coins, 53 silver coins, and 68 copper coins, which is still about six and a half gold coins short of the goal.

"If we continue to make explosives, we have to complete at least two 30-day orders. During this period, we have to be as frugal as possible. Well..." Lu Lin rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a little worried.

If it had been in the past, this rate of making money would have been enough for him to smile while sleeping.

But after such an encounter, he felt a little uneasy if he had to spend sixty days in peace to make money.

"Anyway, if you have no other options for the time being, let's go get an order from Sister Ajuan first..."

Having made up his mind, Lu Lin took Li Mi and drove the ox cart to the town early the next morning.
