Fortunately, such a disappointing scene did not occur. Lin Yi was not too far away from the academy. He was still some distance away from the target area when he noticed that someone was starting to approach him.
It was a veiled woman in black, with a slim figure, but she was not the one who appeared in the Central Chamber of Commerce surveillance.
Lin Yi continued walking his way calmly, pretending not to notice the approach of the woman in black.
The masked woman followed Lin Yi for a while, seeming to be observing Lin Yi. After about ten minutes, she quickly took a few steps to get to Lin Yi's side.
Lin Yi pretended to be a student who was at the peak of his early career. With this level of strength, he would already be considered a genius in an ordinary title empire.
But placed in Tianxia Academy, it is only average.
"This young gentleman is a new student of the Alchemy Branch of Tianxia Academy?"
The masked woman did not take action, but greeted Lin Yi with a soft voice: "Looking at the uniform you are wearing, it should be right?"
Lin Yi pretended to be alert, turned around to face the masked woman, and put on a slightly alert posture: "So what if it is? So what if it's not? Who are you? We don't know each other, right?"
"I really didn't know each other before, but we became familiar with each other once and for all, and soon we got to know each other!"
The masked woman spun around lightly, her figure moving, her fragrance floating: "Well, this is the second time we meet again. Now we are no longer strangers, right?"
Lin Yi twitched the corner of his mouth, pretending to be speechless, and took a look at the subtle fragrance he smelled to make sure there was no incense or anything like that.
"What's the matter with you? If nothing happens, just go ahead!"
Lin Yi remained unmoved and raised his hand in vain.
It means to ask the masked woman to leave quickly and not to hinder herself.
This is of course a hard-to-get approach. If her target is really a student of the academy, she certainly cannot let Lin Yi leave easily.
"What an indifferent young man! You haven't answered my sister's question yet. Are you a student of the alchemy branch? Can't you, a manly man, be more relaxed? Are you afraid that your sister will eat you?"
The masked woman straightened her chest and took a step closer to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi really seemed like an innocent young man. He was forced to take a step back, as if he didn't dare to get too close to her.
"If you have something to say, just stand still and don't move. I'm not used to people talking too close to me!"
Lin Yi's acting skills are superb, but his words are also a little stuttered, and he appropriately expresses the nervousness of a young boy.
The masked woman chuckled softly and waved her hands: "Okay, okay, sister, I won't tease you anymore. You are wearing the freshman uniform of the Alchemy Branch. This is not something hidden. Is it necessary to hide it?"
Lin Yi frowned secretly, somewhat doubting whether this woman was really the mastermind behind the disappearance.
Why didn't the other party make any moves to catch people, instead they just said useless words?
"Yes, you guessed it right, so what is going on? If nothing happens, I will leave, because I still have something to do!"
Lin Yi slightly cupped his hands and continued to retreat, pretending to leave.
Sure enough, the masked woman raised her hand to stop her: "Don't worry, young people are really impatient. My sister is a businessman and sells some precious items. She happens to have the things that the new students of the Alchemy Branch need most, so I want to ask if you have any
Not interested?"
"What is the thing that the freshmen of the Alchemy Branch need most? What is it? Why don't I know?"
Lin Yi showed some interest appropriately, but also had some hesitation: "Are you lying to me? Although I am a freshman at the Alchemy Branch of Tianxia Academy, I am not a child who has never seen the world!"
The masked woman chuckled again, probably laughing at Lin Yi's tough words in her heart. He was clearly a young boy who had never seen the world and still pretended to be mature.
"Yes, yes, sister can't hide anything from you, and of course she can't deceive you! You are a freshman, so you may not know much about it. The thing that the freshmen of the Alchemy Branch need most is the Youquan Biluo Fruit. Have you heard of it?
"
Of course Lin Yi knew what Youquan Biluo Guo was, but this thing was really rare and very unpopular. Not many people knew about it, so he shook his head confidently: "I've never heard of it!"
"It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it. Sister will tell you why you need Youquan Biluo Guo! The library of the alchemy branch is divided into five floors. Freshmen can only enter the first floor to borrow. Is this correct?"
The masked woman didn't care. Seeing Lin Yi nodding, she continued: "You don't know yet. If the freshmen want to enter the second level to borrow, they need to use Youquan Biluo fruit to synthesize a potion and hand it in as a semi-finished product for alchemy. This
The synthesis of this medicine is relatively difficult and requires a lot of Youquan Biluo Fruit."
"Think about it, how big the gap will be between those who can only borrow basic books on the first floor and those who can enter the second floor? Two freshmen with similar talent levels will become completely different within half a year.
The gap!”
The masked woman's persuasive ability is very strong, especially her voice is very soft, which makes you feel comfortable listening to it, and it is easy to win the favor of others.
As for whether what she said is true, Lin Yi, the dean of the alchemy branch... is not sure!
It’s so shameful to think about it!
"Really? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Lin Yi looked very excited, but hesitant: "Even if it is true, how many Youquan Biluo fruits do you have? What is the price? Is it expensive?"
"Don't worry, sister is the most fair. Apart from the freshmen of your alchemy branch, there are not many people who are in demand for Youquan Biluo Fruit, so you don't have to worry about the price. It will definitely satisfy you!"
The masked woman let out a sweet laugh like a silver bell, and continued to induce Lin Yi: "If you are really inconvenient, my sister can also make the decision to let you pay part of the account on credit. When you become an alchemist in the future, you can help me make alchemy for free.
Hey, I'll provide you with the materials for making alchemy, how about that?"
This proposal is very tempting and very reasonable.
Because it always costs a lot of money to hire an alchemist to make an elixir. Sometimes the cost of making an elixir exceeds the material price of the elixir itself. It is normal to have to pay for failure.
Therefore, it is not unusual to use free elixirs to offset the purchase price.
For freshmen at the Alchemy Academy, alchemy is something they will only consider in the future. Using future labor in exchange for current gains is also a very cost-effective deal.
So Lin Yi pretended to think about it for a while and immediately agreed to the proposal: "Okay! Let's settle it then! Let me see how many Youquan Biluo fruits you have, and just quote a price!"
"My little brother really doesn't know about the Youquan Biluo Fruit! So I don't know the characteristics of the Youquan Biluo Fruit. My sister will give you some science today. After picking this kind of spiritual fruit, it can only be preserved in a good jade box.
After a day or two of this state, the spiritual energy within it will begin to drain away rapidly."
The masked woman was not lying. Lin Yi knew the properties of Youquan Biluo Fruit, so he knew very well whether she was lying or not.
