After Sylvide nodded, the basement was quiet for a moment.
The old man put down his pipe, his gray eyes flashing with insight: "I see, little girl from the Albert family, I'm asking you why you want to compete with Old Copper Nose for no reason. You deliberately exposed your identity, but in fact...
Do you want those old guys to pay attention to the next game?"
Sylvide smiled and expressed her acquiescence.
Ender also laughed and shook his head: "We old guys have been fooled by you again, and besides me, the others probably haven't realized it yet. You have succeeded in leaving a deep impression on them."
impression--"
He glanced at the crystal at hand and said with emotion: "Old Copper Nose must be cursing at this moment. No one who watched that scene would be curious about this little guy. But what's more interesting is that they must think
This little guy is a 'student' I picked up from somewhere."
He laughed and said: "Ha, that's fine, let them guess. It saves those guys from nagging me behind my back all day long and letting them say that I have no successor."
As Ander spoke, he looked at Fang Plover with his silver-grey eyes.
The latter was confused, but he also understood that his ship officer lady had secretly set a trap for him again - Fang Plover turned around and looked at Sylvester on the side with some annoyance, but all he saw was the daughter of a nobleman.
There seemed to be a bunch of fox ears growing on the top of his head.
It's sharp and slightly swaying.
Ender changed the subject: "But my opinion alone is insignificant. It can at best influence those old guys. And if you want to take away the Fairy Heart, it is the brainchild of your grandfather for generations. The opinion of the Presbyterian Council is just an opinion."
In terms of this, we still need to get Veravito’s approval.”
Villavito Silin Spica - the current Earl of Rose, Delise's father. Before coming, Sylvide mentioned it to others, so Fang Plover was not surprised that they were going to do this.
, naturally requires the consent of the current 'owner' of Rose Workshop.
"We have our own arrangements, Mr. Ender," Sylvester replied.
"I believe that," Ander smiled slightly: "If the little girl from the Albert family plans to do something, how can she not think carefully about it?"
"All right."
The old man nodded.
However, he said yes, but he did not comment on the answer to this question.
Sylvide and Fang Pulmon glanced at each other, and both understood that the other meant that they wanted to observe for a while. This was not surprising. After all, the old man was his grandfather's assistant and had a unique feeling for the Rose Workshop.
Will make decisions easily.
In fact, Ender also recognized that Fang Plover has outstanding talent in alchemy, but sometimes, talent can't mean anything. It can even lead things to bad directions. When talent is used in the wrong direction, it will only keep people away.
The goal is getting further and further away.
Moreover, being too superstitious about talent will only make people lazy. There are many such examples, and the elderly will not speak out to avoid hurting the confidence of young people.
However, he believed that with the intelligence of the little girl from the Albert family, she should also be able to see this clearly.
After that, everyone's efforts to stay in Dulon were postponed for a few days as expected.
At the request of the old man, Fang Plover visited Sylvester almost every day in the next few days, sometimes alone, mainly to supplement some of the alchemist's abilities with the help of the legendary alchemist.
Basic common sense.
To prevent him from making another mistake like this one in the Rose Workshop, he didn't know something as funny as 'Leoux's Beast Chess'. If he had to do it again at the Elders' Meeting, it wouldn't be that funny.
Both of them were born in the Kapka Craftsmen's Association and were alchemists from the same school, so Ender showed great interest in Fang Plover's origins.
In the old man's long memory, the Kapka Artisan Association paid more attention to the basic education of alchemist apprentices. What puzzled him was how the Kapka School taught such an alchemist with such a lack of common sense.
Coming?
Or is it that the Kapka School is no longer what it used to be?
When he was free, the old man asked Fang Pulong this question. Fang Plot was a little embarrassed and replied with a blush: "I am a selector, and the training period for a selector is only six months, Mr. Ander."
Well, compared to the apprentices of aboriginal alchemists who often spend more than ten years, the Chosen One is indeed a quick success, and it is not surprising that he lacks common sense. But Ender nodded and changed the subject: "But other Chosen Ones also
Not like you, is it?"
This is heartbreaking.
Fang Piao was about to cry but had no tears, because normal selectees still have three years of trainee training, and one year of trainee assessment, followed by a two-year transition period for newcomers. Calculated in this way, it will take five or six years to officially become a selectee.
Long.
In fact, many trainees enter specialized trainee training camps when they are seven or eight years old. While learning the knowledge of the earth, they also learn the common sense of Aitaria. When they become real trainees, they have already learned about Aitaria.
Have considerable common sense.
Ji Ta, Luo Yu, and Tian Lan are all trainees with professional backgrounds.
And he is just a wild kid. Everything he knows about Aitaria comes from his learning from the community. There are many advanced things in the community, but there is a lot less when it comes to common sense.
If he hadn't met 'r' in the end, he would probably be even more black-eyed than he is now.
What he learned in Kapka was just some basics of alchemists. Six months was not enough for him to fully and systematically understand everything about alchemists in the world.
However, the apprenticeship period of the Chosen is only six months, and he cannot stay in Kapka for too long. Besides, he has no money. If Miss Scarpe hadn't taken him in, he would have starved to death before winter came.
On the streets.
Fortunately, Ender didn't look into it in detail. He roughly guessed that Fang Plover didn't really learn much in Kapka. However, this made the old man a little curious - where did the other party learn the 'margin technique'?
?
After all, in any school of thought, this is considered professional knowledge. Without a dedicated mentor, it is basically impossible for newcomers to learn similar skills.
In response to this question, Fang Plover told his own experience in an honest and smooth manner. After all, the other party even knew about Miss Tata, so this little secret was not worth mentioning, not to mention that Shana also said that he could use this training software
Sharing it with others shows that this thing does not seem to need to be kept secret.
To be honest, he himself is actually a little curious about Shana's training method. He originally thought it was the basic training method of 'surplus skills', but now it seems that it is not. So the question is, where did this training technique come from?
Where did it come from?
In Fang Yu's opinion, this question can only be answered by the legendary alchemist in front of him.
But after Ender looked at the training method, he couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Is this what those people gave you?"
Fang Plover nodded.
"This is strange. I really don't know the origin of this training method." The old man's silver-grey eyebrows wrinkled slightly and seemed to think for a moment, "But your training method is very clever. The only thing that is certain is that
It is indeed a training method for 'margin skills', but it is much more difficult than usual..."
"There aren't any hidden dangers, are they, Mr. Ande?" Fang Pulver always felt that he had been deceived all the time recently, and couldn't help but feel a little bit dissatisfied.
"Hidden dangers?" Ander shook his head: "What hidden dangers can there be? It's just a training method. The only problem is probably that it's too unfriendly to beginners." He glared at Fang Pliance: "But you
Are freaks different or have they passed this stage?"
"I really don't know how you got such a brain. Sometimes you look like a real idiot——"
He shook his head a little hopelessly.
It had to be said that this young man's learning ability in alchemy made him a little impressed. In his opinion, the other person was like a sponge that had just been soaked in water, able to endlessly absorb all knowledge related to alchemy.
.
In the past few days of study, he intentionally or unintentionally guided the other party to learn some knowledge about shipwrights and elfling, but it did not stump the other party at all. Ander himself was also a standard academic master of the Kapka Society when he was young, but he
Looking back on my own learning experience, I feel inferior.
But sometimes, this boy is so stubborn that his head is filled with stones. For example, in terms of alchemist etiquette, cognition, and common sense about how to deal with other alchemists, he finds that he cannot teach him anything.
Know this idiot.
"You know, in most places, each country has its own alchemist association, which controls the flow of resources among alchemists. It is through this method that countries can achieve basic management and control of alchemists."
"Like the Southern Alchemist League?"
"Yes, but don't interrupt," Ender knocked on his pipe: "That's not the point I want to say."
Fang Yu sat upright and behaved like a real student. After all, he also knew that it was rare for a legendary alchemist to be willing to teach him these things. This was a rare experience.
Moreover, when the other party was teaching him, he only saw the cognitive experience in the system skyrocketing, which did not gradually slow down until the third day, but basically he was receiving thousands of experience points every hour.
After more than ten hours a day, it amounts to tens of thousands of experiences.
In just a few days, his level has steadily passed the fifteenth level and started to move towards the sixteenth level. What is even more surprising is that even Luo Yu, Xiang Xiang and Parker, who had been listening in the previous two days, actually
They also upgraded their levels.
Among them, Luo Yu, who was at the lowest level, was promoted to level seven on the first day, and was almost halfway to level seven on the second day.
It's a pity that on the third day, the old man drove everyone else away, saying that he was teaching alchemists and was not here to be a nanny for these little guys. And it can be seen from this that a legendary alchemist can be a nanny.
Mentors are so valuable.
Although Luo Yuming also has a legendary elementalist as a mentor, the kind of mentor who writes a letter of introduction is just a name, and it is basically unthinkable to impart experience like this in person.
Does it really cost money to be a legend?
Of course, Fang Yu knew that the reason why the other party was willing to supplement him with this knowledge was entirely for Sylvide's sake.
So at first, although he was very dissatisfied with the aristocratic daughter's behavior of setting a trap on him after a disagreement, but after a few days, he saw that he was a lovely fox lady with a smile.
All I can say is, it smells really good.
"What I want to tell you here is the alchemist black market," the old man didn't know that Fang Plover was deserting, and continued: "Where there is light, there is shadow. If you are an alchemist, you will be useful. When you use the alchemist black market, only in the black market
, you can buy some materials and blueprints that are officially controlled by the Alchemist Association."
"But those places are not the paradise of alchemists," Ender took out a book from the drawer and handed it to Fang Plover: "There are also some reliable businessmen there, but most of them are liars and other lawless people.
, rather than how to sell you better things, they are more concerned about how to take money out of your pocket with nothing."
He patted the cover of the book: "So you have to be careful when dealing with these people. This book was written by a famous alchemist. It mainly writes about how to deal with black market businessmen and some famous deceptions."
The afternoon sun was slowly passing through the window, pouring the last bit of winter warmth into the living room. The legendary alchemist warned the relevant precautions one by one, and finally asked: "Do you understand?"
Fang Yu thought for a moment: "I don't quite understand, but I can ask Miss Tianlan and Attila to help negotiate the price."
Ender gasped after hearing this, but luckily he didn't throw the book directly at his face: "...I said that only alchemists can enter the alchemist black market, and your Miss Attila and Tianlan cannot enter."
"Then it's okay if I don't go to the Alchemist Black Market, ouch——"
Before he could finish his words, a thick book hit him in the eye. Veins popped out on Ander's head, like a giant dragon roaring: "Get away from me, you're hopeless."
Idiot! Memorize this book ten times. If you can’t remember any of the above, don’t come to see me anymore!”
Fang Plover held the book and ran away innocently, holding his head.
But in the end, he memorized the entire book with his amazing memory - roughly.
But as for how to use the above content, only the saints above know. Anyway, Fang Yu has already made up his mind to convince Tian Lan and Ms. Attila to change their professions as alchemists, just like this.
Isn’t that a wonderful way to solve the problem?
However, after that, Ender stopped talking to him about the "common sense" related to this aspect. He probably realized that rotten wood cannot be carved, and only simply discussed with him the knowledge related to alchemy.
In this way, the communication between the two became much more peaceful, and nothing like this happened again.
And as the teaching deepened, Ander found that he became more and more appreciative of this young man who had shown amazing talent in alchemy. Although he might have had some thoughts of investigation at the beginning, in the end, he had actually
He regarded Fang Yu as his direct student.
He didn't expect that his previous joke with Old Copper Nose would turn out to be a prophecy, but he felt in his heart that he might have fallen into the scheme of the little girl from the Albert family.
But this is a conspiracy.
For a legendary alchemist like him, at this age, the only thing he wants is of course a qualified student. The reason why he had no successor before was simply because his vision was too high.
The arrival of Fang Plover was like an unexpected surprise arranged by fate. Because of this, later on, the old man unintentionally taught him more and more carefully.
Naturally, the ‘common sense’ that Fang Plover mastered also improved by leaps and bounds.
In the last few days, the experience he gained actually showed an upward trend——
The snowstorm arrived as scheduled a few days ago, and Fang Plover stopped returning to Dulon after that, and only stayed overnight in the manor. Coincidentally, there was actually another guest in the manor at this time - the Grand Craftsman
The president of the association, but probably because his study time was staggered with the other party's activity time, he only saw the other party from a distance in the yard.
Neither party left any impression on the other.
Of course, Falais-Copper Bay would not have thought that the ordinary young man he saw that day would be the alchemist boy from Fenris Island that he had been looking for.
Sometimes, Sylvide would also come and stay overnight in the manor - but this would inevitably be a bit embarrassing, because Ander considered themselves a young couple, and the room arranged for them was the same.
one.
There is only one double bed inside.
Of course, it was impossible for Fang Plover to sleep on the cold floor in the middle of winter, so the two had to sleep back to back. And Fang Plover repeatedly promised that he would never turn around - but to this, the noble daughter just smiled.
A pair of eyes like the shallow sea looked at him as if they could speak.
Outside the house was the severe cold of a blizzard, and the howling wind even covered up the sound of the forest roaring far and near. Only the branches occasionally hitting the windows would make a rustling sound.
But the room was unexpectedly quiet, with only the ticking sound of a clock. Fang Plover stared into the darkness, and could only feel the girl's warm back pressing against him, as if the two of them were guarding the only warmth in this severe cold.
He couldn't sleep at all and his mind was filled with random thoughts.
In fact, neither of them fell asleep, but they could still maintain a tacit understanding in the darkness. No one would expose this, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.
But what Fang Yu didn't expect was that after a while, Miss Tata also got out from under the quilt, probably because of his influence. In the darkness, Miss Goblin was sitting on her knees on the pillow, looking at him curiously:
"Mr. Knight, you are emotionally unstable. Is it Miss Sylvide who has influenced you?"
Tata asked very calmly.
After hearing this, Fang Yu almost hit his head on the bed and died.
"Miss Tata, don't say it!" he shouted in his heart.
But Fang Yu obviously forgot that the two of them share the same heart. After hearing this, Tata asked strangely: "Why can't you tell me?"
Puff.
Sylvide's snickering came from the other side of the quilt, but the noble daughter obviously held back her laughter, but her shoulders shook violently.
At that moment, Fang Yu felt that he had died socially.
