"My boss always doesn't like strangers disturbing him, and I can't help it." The store owner looked embarrassed. Norton had a very weird temper. Except for playing with his bottles and jars in the laboratory every day, he rarely came out to see people.
"Can you please tell me?" I didn't expect that the Norton brand was very big, but the more someone like this, the more extraordinary his status is.
The store owner still shook his head and sighed. "With all due respect, our boss's temper is really weird, and there's nothing I can do about it."
Just as he finished speaking, he heard an earth-shaking loud noise coming from the back hall, and a scorching wave of air hit him. Ling Yun and the store owner flew out directly.
Half of the roof was blown off, and thick smoke rose up into the sky. The smoke had a pungent and spicy smell, which made people have runny noses and tears. It was as uncomfortable as it felt.
With most of his health lost, Ling Yun stumbled up from the ground and wiped the charred face. "Fuck! What's going on? Is it a terrorist attack?"
At this time, the store owner poked his head out from under the counter with a metal alchemy vessel, and said with tears in his eyes: "Oh, I'm so sorry, sir. Maybe there is another problem in our employer's laboratory."
Another problem? Why add the word "another"? Could it be that there are often problems here? Ling Yun looked at his health, which meant that he was equipped with top-notch equipment. If he had been an ordinary rookie, he would have been instantly killed by the explosion just now.
"Cough cough cough..." Accompanied by a violent cough, the explosion just now caused a big hole in the wall, and at this time a dark object crawled out of the hole.
His whole body was so charred that he couldn't tell his appearance, his clothes were in tatters, and he was burnt on the outside and tender on the inside. In addition to the spicy smell, he also exuded a faint aroma of barbecue.
Is this a human or a ghost? Or is it a Goblin monster that escaped from the wild area?
Ling Yun was carefully identifying it, and the black figure gasped and leaned on the counter next to it. "Oh, the experiment failed again. Fortunately, there is the angel guardian potion, otherwise this old bones will be buried."
"Boss, are you okay?" The store owner hurriedly stepped forward to help him up.
"Ahem, it's okay, he's not dead yet." With help, he stood up slowly and sat on the chair next to him. He said it very calmly, and it seemed that he was used to such thrilling things and was not surprised.
Boss? Is he the alchemist Norton he is looking for?
Regardless of the danger just now, Ling Yun stood up and came to him. "I think you are Master Norton, right?"
"Oh? Young man, how do you know me?" Norton took a sip of water. Although his expression couldn't be seen clearly, his tone sounded surprised. With the look in front of him, let alone others, even he almost recognized it.
No more outside of myself.
Ling Yun smiled slightly and said: "I don't know, today is the first time we meet. It's a great honor to meet Master Norton. I have something very important to ask for your help here." Although he said this, he was cursing secretly in his heart.
: I'm so lucky, I almost didn't get killed just now.
"You go find some people to tidy up the shop and close the business today." Norton turned to the shop owner and said, looking at Ling Yun with an apology on his face. "Young man, this is not the place to talk. Let's find a place to talk.
"
Following Norton, he got up and went to the back of the store. There was a large courtyard there. However, the ground was now in a mess, and a large pit with a radius of ten meters appeared on the ground to the east. Fortunately, there was a house to the north of the courtyard, which was actually made of reinforced concrete.
It was made of poured steel plates, obviously just in case.
"Young man, sit down wherever you want. I'll go change my clothes." There were several other rooms in the house, and Norton turned around and disappeared.
Looking around, the furnishings in the room are very simple. There are a few tables and chairs, and there is a very large bookshelf next to it, which is densely filled with thousands of sets of books. Many of the books are yellowed, and they are obviously old.
There were several books on the table, and Ling Yun browsed them casually. "Encyclopedia of Alchemy in the Fantasy World", "Encyclopedia of Alchemy Materials in the Fantasy World", and "On the Future Development of Alchemy Production".

Ling Yun felt a headache when he saw it, so he quickly put it aside.
"Haha, you've been waiting for a long time, young man." At this time, Norton walked out of the room. Now he had changed his clothes, and after washing up, he immediately made his eyes shine.
He was a hale and hearty old man, short in stature, with pointed ears. He was actually an Elf NPC. He couldn't tell how old he was, his beard and hair were already gray, and half of them were blown off by the explosion just now.
"Master, you are so polite." Ling Yun saluted hurriedly. "I am here this time to help you with something very important."
"What's going on? Just tell me what you have to say." Norton spoke in a very easy-going manner, obviously feeling a little sorry for what just happened.
"The village chief of Novice Village No. 26 was turned into a black cat. He asked me to come to you to ask if there is a way to restore his original appearance."
Norton took a deep breath and raised his head thoughtfully. "Transformation? Is that a transformation potion? The problem is a bit tricky."
"What's wrong? Isn't it difficult to handle?" Seeing Norton's expression of embarrassment, Ling Yun felt unsure. After all, it was an S-level mission, and it could not be completed so easily.
"Well," Norton nodded and looked at the bookshelf. "You must know that the formula for the transformation potion has been extinct on the mainland for many years, and it is even more difficult to cancel the transformation. The only way is to find the transformation
Only with the formula of the potion can I develop a solution."
Ling Yun only felt his scalp numb. He wouldn't let me find the formula, would he? The fantasy world is so big, where should I find it?
"But I know that there is someone who seems to know the whereabouts of the transformation potion formula. I heard it by chance." Norton seemed to remember something. "However, I don't know if he is willing to help."
Ling Yun suddenly became energetic. Now that he knows the whereabouts of the formula, future problems will be easier to solve. "Who is it? Let me see if I can help?"
"The Lord of the City of Demons, I heard him mention it in the bar, but I didn't care about it at the time. The effect of the transformation potion is not very great, and very few people use it."
Ding! The second ring of the S-level mission Biohazard is completed, and the reward is 100,000 experience points and 100 reputation points.
Ding! The third ring of the S-level mission Biohazard has begun. Get the news about the transformation potion formula from the Lord of the Demon City.
City Lord? Well, there happens to be a mission to find him, so we’ll do it together this time. But this mission is really weird, we can’t always have people running away to find someone, right? At this time, Ling Yun’s drunkenness has basically gone away.
88. "Well, I'll go and ask."
After chatting casually with Norton for a while, and seeing that there was no valuable information, Ling Yun stood up and left. The store outside was still being repaired, and it was estimated that it would take a few days to resume operations.
I found an NPC to find out the specific location of the lower city's main palace, and walked straight to my destination. After crossing the street, my eyes suddenly felt much more spacious. That was the square of the Demon City, and a large group of players had already gathered in the square.
