Chapter 499: He uses psychic powers. Is this cheating? (3/4)
There was obviously no answer to this question, so no one answered the question.
"Go." The gray-haired old man raised his hand: "Let Gosei come and see for himself. The boy he values has finally come to test... I thought he would come as soon as possible, but unexpectedly it still took two days.
"
"No."
While talking, the door of the conference room was opened, and a hunchbacked old man with blue eyes walked in with a few young people: "You don't need to remind me."
Behind Master Gosei were Isengard, Waldo and Carancil.
After Carancil came in, he walked behind the gray-haired old man and whispered a few words.
The originally small conference room suddenly became a little crowded, but no one said anything. The other alchemists who were sitting there hurriedly stood up and wanted to make room for Master Gosei.
But the old man didn't pay too much attention. He stood there, looked at Ian in the light curtain, and then said: "Show me today's test questions."
Waldo quickly handed over a piece of paper. Master Gosei took it and looked at it, raising his eyebrows: "It looks like you are not very lucky. This does not seem to be Ian's area of expertise."
"I'm afraid of losing face." The old woman choked, not giving any face at all: "When you have afternoon tea with us, you brag every day, bragging that you have found a genius in Nanling... Why, I'm not your apprentice. Don't tell me.
, even a genius can’t adapt to all the test questions?”
"You can't say that, Wana." The gray-haired old man echoed: "After all, this child is indeed too young... It's normal to be bad at something. It's really bad luck."
"oh."
In response, Master Gosei smiled meaningfully. He sat on his seat and put his hands on the conference table and clasped them together.
He said: "How about making a bet? Vana, Alexey, you don't dare to do it, do you?"
The old man named Alexey laughed: "Just say it."
Master Wana didn't take it seriously either: "How old are you to show off?"
"I'll bet on the ranking." Master Gosei said slowly: "And you, also choose someone you like... Let's see in the end, who has the best vision and the person who has the highest ranking."
Master Alexei, Master Vana and Master Gosei were all outstanding alchemists who emerged in the same golden decade. They once experienced the splendor and enthusiasm of the pioneering era and the war era together.
Now that they are all old, the first two even have independent alchemy institutions under their umbrella, which are not under the control of the Alchemy Association. But if there is a real problem, they will still go back to the Alchemy Association to help.
It's also for the sake of old friends.
"Of course I will choose my little Karan."
The gray-haired old man patted the shoulder of the black-haired young man beside him. He looked confident: "Although little Karan still has some problems, and occasionally gets anxious easily... But as a young man, what can I say?
'Don't be impatient yet', you will still be impatient if you should be impatient...but other than that, everything about him is excellent."
"really."
Master Gosei glanced at Carancil and nodded slightly: "He is indeed very good. Isengard's actual level is actually not as high as Carancil, but mentality is also part of the strength. Old man, you have to
Take him out to experience and experience the outside world."
Saying this, he also put his hand on Isengard's shoulder - for a moment, both Isengard and Caransil felt the atmosphere change.
They looked at each other and felt that the atmosphere suddenly became a little more subtle.
If we say that the competition between the two of them is an open and covert fight between classmates in the college...
The competition between Master Nagose and Master Alexey... has gradually turned into using the children they have raised to fight other people's children!
Warcraft is a yes.
"Take him out to practice, and then almost die in the maze like you?" Alexei didn't notice the subtle eye contact between the two young people, and waved his hand: "If you really want me to do it, I have to bring a whole team of servants with me.
Corps... I'm not as big-hearted as you."
"If there is nothing more pleasing to my eyes tomorrow, I will choose this young man."
Master Wana looked at it and selected a candidate whose assessment work she thought was pretty good: "Okay, keep reading. We are invigilators, not here to chat."
Then his eyes returned to the light curtain.
Ian is reading the test questions.
"Use the given materials to make the most valuable alchemy potion? It will take one hour..."
The young man nodded slightly. The exam questions were very simple and clear, but there were many ways to learn. First of all, there is a lot to consider about the highest value. It requires understanding the value of most potions, as well as the value of the materials and the ability to mix them within an hour.
The potion produced has a quick judgment.
An hour is not long or short. If it is a magic potion, this time is probably still waiting for the source material structure to naturally precipitate, but if it is some fast combat potions, all the materials can be used up in ten minutes.
- but that's of little value.
For another example, the given materials can barely make a bottle of high-grade potion, but because the materials are not good and the quality ratio is low, this may not be as valuable as a bottle of high-quality medium potion made with these materials.
And the materials given...
Ian looked at it.
Golden flame flying eagle eye, demon hunting insect shell, white electric leopard long tendons, earth light giant bear's hard work... and many accessories.
A fire monster, a non-attribute material, a thunder monster, a ground and fire dual attribute material...
Although they seemed unrelated, several different potions instantly emerged in Ian's mind: "Extreme boiling potion, invisible heavy armor potion, red flame light explosion potion, comprehensive amplification potion... Well, there are many choices, but
We still need to think about the value aspect.”
As he was thinking, he placed the materials in categories, and then fell into thinking: "Based on pure value, the comprehensive amplification potion is undoubtedly the most expensive among elite-level potions within the one-hour range. It can be used for a short time.
It improves the attributes of an ascendant in all aspects and can 'heal injuries', which can self-neutralize negative effects."
"But the problem is that it is missing this part. There is no ingredient for the healing potion here... In a way, this test question is not suitable for me, because the characteristics I originally wanted to show are
He is good at healing potions."
"Furthermore, this test question is very unfriendly to rural alchemists - they may have enough skills, but if they don't know enough, they will be at a disadvantage."
The extreme boiling potion is a kind of explosive and life-threatening drug. It increases the increase in physical strength, but the side effect is that it will require you to stay in bed for at least half a month, and it will also weaken the recovery power of the source seed. It is said that many knights who perform important tasks will
Carry this potion and hope you never need it.
The other two are potions based on the materials of the Earth Light Giant Bear and the Golden Flame Flying Eagle respectively. There is nothing much to say about ordinary defensive potions and attack damage.
Although the value is not low, the utilization rate of other materials is extremely low, which is obviously a waste and will greatly deduct points.
Ian raised his head and his precognitive vision swept across the entire scene.
Indeed, everyone's materials are similar, there is no obvious difference, and several people have already started making them.
Looking at the process, it turns out that they all choose comprehensive amplification potions. The level and skills of these people are very solid. In theory, the next step is to see which of these people has the highest degree of completion of the comprehensive amplification potions.
Of course, some people choose the extreme boiling potion, and another 'physical enhancement potion'. This potion can enhance the strength, physique and agility of the user, and has no side effects, but it has no mental gain and is not effective for the demon hunting insect shell.
The utilization rate is not high, and although the value is not low, the impression score will be relatively low.
"How can this kid use his psychic powers to see other candidates?"
In the conference room, Master Alexei turned his head and looked at Master Gosei. He clapped his legs and said, "Is this cheating?"
