Astral Apostle - Chapter 73

[Seventy entering the room and rushing to school]

The next afternoon, Zhou Jing took the initiative to invite Mali to go out for a meal.

Mali originally had the plan of dragging the word, thinking about making Zhou Jing’s money with one hammer sale, and then everyone broke up.

To be honest, a little surprised, flattered.

Which of the apprentices who used to pit… did not end in anger and broke up unhappily. If it hadn’t been for staying in the fire area with good security, and only pitting foreigners who had no foundation, Mali would have been sacked long ago.

He didn’t expect that with his own virtue, he would be able to enjoy this kind of treatment one day… His self-awareness is still very clear.

Anyway, someone treats guests, and they don’t eat for nothing, so Marisuo closed the shop and went to a well-known local tavern with Zhou Jing.

The two ordered a lot of dishes, kept refilling drinks, and drank while eating, and soon Mali became a little confused.

“Bill” was not too physically fit and was still awake. Seeing that Mali was almost drunk, Zhou Jing asked him about the formula.

Mali was instinctively vigilant all of a sudden, he was perfunctory, and he didn’t reveal his tone at all.

Even if he was drunk, his psychological defense line was still strong, stingy, and sneered secretly.

Little sample, it turned out that he wanted to set my formula, so he invited me to dinner, hum, don’t even think about it…

Although the formulas that Mali has mastered are all common potions, and he knows a lot of pharmacists, but he just doesn’t want to give them unless he has Real money.

Seeing that Mali was tight-lipped, Zhou Jing didn’t ask any more, and continued to pour alcohol into Mali, paying generously, making the other party elated.

It was only when the night was close to curfew that Zhou Jing helped the drunk Mali out of the tavern.

“Where is your home, I’ll take you back.”

Zhou Jing asked in a low voice.

After studying with this man for a month, Mali has never invited the apprentice to his home once, and he has to inquire about it himself.

Mali was shaking when he walked, so he had no choice but to accept Zhou Jing’s support.

The two walked through the winding alley, and soon came to a small house. Mali took out the key to open the door, and then suddenly held the door frame to block the way, not intending to invite Zhou Jing in.

“I’m here, you can go back by yourself.” Mali said with a big tongue.

“Okay.”

Zhou Jing nodded, suddenly reached out and grabbed his shoulder, strode into the house against him, hooked the door with his feet, and closed it.

Mari was startled and tried to pull Zhou Jing’s arm away with both hands, but he couldn’t shake the seemingly thin arm, and panicked: “You… What are you doing? Hurry out, I’m going to call!”

After speaking, He made a gesture of shouting, trying to attract the guards patrolling the street.

However, the next moment, a large hand grabbed his neck, blocking his voice in his throat.

Zhou Jing lifted Mali with one hand and let his legs kick in the air.

“Don’t shout, or my hand will shake and your neck will be broken.”

Mari felt the tightening force on his neck, his face turned purple, and he quickly compromised like a quail.

Seeing this, Zhou Jing put him down and wiped the dust off Mali’s clothes with a smile.

“Yes, cooperate obediently, it’s good for you, I get what you want, and it won’t hurt you.”

“You… don’t mess around.”

Mali immediately sobered up, his lips trembling, shivering like chaff, Where is the spirit from before.

He didn’t expect that this stinky out- of-

towner would have the guts to robbery!

Mari couldn’t help but touched the red-marked neck, flustered.

Why is this thin and weak guy so strong?

!

Because of Jason’s relationship, Mali was preconceived and felt that the Bill in front of him was a person with an “endorsement” and would not break the law easily, and he was a decent person anyway.

As long as you don’t overdo it, it will be an economic dispute at most, and it will not escalate to violence.

After all, this is the capital, and imperial hunters have to abide by the rules. Zhou Jing knew a hunter just to make Mali feel troublesome, but he was not afraid… Who would be afraid of a group whose duty is to protect the people.

So Mali didn’t expect Zhou Jing to dare to do such a thing, and now that Zhou Jing seems to be a villain, he is really afraid.

Zhou Jing dragged Mali around the house and made sure that there was only one person in the room, so he took Mali by the shoulders, hehe said,

“I have no other intentions, just curious about the potion formula in your hand, take it out and give it to me. Let me take a look?”

“Okay…”

Mali dared to say anything else, took out a tattered note from the bookcase, and handed it to Zhou Jing tremblingly.

Zhou Jing opened his eyes and saw that there were records of Mali’s experience in making potions over the years, as well as an appendix of more than a dozen formulas.

Most of these formulas are common general medicines, such as healing potions, refreshing potions, insecticides, etc. In addition, there are two hunter potions, which are to improve cardiopulmonary function and reduce pain.

“Yo, you know quite a lot. No wonder you have to teach me.” Zhou Jing read it carefully several times, wrote it down silently, and then stuffed the notebook back into the bookshelf.

Mali didn’t dare to answer, and smiled embarrassingly.

“Okay, don’t be so scared, I won’t kill anyone casually.” Zhou Jing patted him on the shoulder, hehe said: “Remember, today I’m just taking you home to take care of you who are drunk, and nothing else. Nothing happened.”

“Understood…”

Of course Mari had no objection, and nodded again and again.

Zhou Jing smacked his lips: “Even if you want to report the case, there is no evidence, and you hired me as an apprentice at an outrageous price. If others know that you have charged so much money, who do you think is more responsible?”

“I… …I didn’t think so.”

“That’s right, you cheated me a lot of money, since you really taught me, I won’t ask you for this money, the potions I made these days are also yours, you still earn If you don’t know how to be satisfied and you want to make trouble, I may be unlucky, but you will definitely understand the value of life.”

Hearing this, Mali calmed down. Suddenly it makes sense.

In essence, I still made money, but I couldn’t catch another person.

Although the value of those formulas exceeded Zhou Jing’s efforts in the past month, but being learned by others would not deprive him of the knowledge he had mastered, and there was not much substantial loss.

Seeing that Mali was satisfied, Zhou Jing patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction, then threatened and warned him, and then swaggered away.

Mary suddenly slumped on the chair, his chest heaving violently, his heart pounding, and he felt like he was walking around on the edge of death.

He couldn’t help recalling the month of getting along. Zhou Jing acted like an obedient apprentice, which made him let go of his guard, and it was not until tonight that he showed his fierce side.

If I knew a month ago, I should have been more resolute and shouted a higher price to scare this person away… Mali was annoyed, and only felt that the wolf was brought into the room.

Although depressed, he certainly did not have the guts to regenerate trouble.

Provoking this villain again will only bring bad luck. After admitting this loss, he can continue to enjoy life. Mali now just wants to quickly end the relationship and stop getting involved with Zhou Jing.

…

The next day, the two met again at the pharmacy. Zhou Jing smiled, as usual, as if nothing happened last night.

Mali’s face was stiff, and he could only force a smile, not daring to treat Zhou Jing with his previous attitude.

After spending a day in a strange atmosphere, Zhou Jing finally made a request to end the apprenticeship relationship. Mari felt as if he had been granted amnesty, and couldn’t wait to agree, so he almost chased people with a broom.

Zhou Jing took the dog out of the pharmacy, and when he looked back, he saw Mali standing by the door watching.

Aware of Zhou Jing’s gaze, Mali quickly shrank his head, not daring to look any further.

Zhou Jing retracted his gaze, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

His own level of pharmacy has reached Lv4 proficiency, plus more than a dozen formulas, he is already a qualified pharmacist, and it only took a month to complete it quickly, and the benefits of adding related qualifications are really amazing.

In fact, according to the normal way, it is difficult to learn more than a dozen formulas so quickly. Even if the learning efficiency is high, normal pharmacists teach apprentices. Without a long inspection period, it is impossible to easily teach all formulas, at least one or two years. Only a dozen of them can be learned, and he doesn’t want to wait so long.

It’s not suitable for normal teachers to do things that are not suitable, even for people like Mali, Zhou Jing’s methods are not too violent. Although they charge money, the teaching is true.

Just use force, save the twists and turns of the normal way, quickly get the knowledge you want, and nothing else will do with Mali.

In the world of alien beasts, fists are more realistic and the most convenient.

“I already have the level of a pharmacist, so I shouldn’t be turned away from the Imperial Workshop now.”

Zhou Jing walked down the street and pondered for a while, then quickly turned to the Imperial Workshop’s office, where It is his goal, the gathering place of the “high-end technology” of the entire Terra Empire.

…

At the same time, somewhere in the royal palace.

Roman strolls through the garden.

A confidant followed him and reported in a low voice:

“…The tribal lords from all over the country have replied, and as long as there is a need, the plan can be implemented at any time.”

Roman nodded, picked a leaf from the grass by the roadside, and flipped it between his fingers. , said casually: “Let them wait, the time is not ripe, it is not a good opportunity to tear the face, the empire now has the energy to send troops to crusade.

” The people in the workshop heard news that they seem to have made new progress in the research and development of the special abilities of alien beasts.”

Roman paused: “Oh?”

“Imperial Workshop has been researching a special kind of alien beast equipment, trying to use the special abilities of alien beasts. It seems that a semi-finished product has been made recently. People from the Tarn royal family went to see it in person, and blocked the news… We only inquired Now

, they named this equipment the Miracle Armament.”

“I want to know the details, let me know.” Roman’s tone was unquestionable.

“Understood.”

Roman paused, as if he had remembered something, and then asked: “How is the progress of the imperial workshop in the research and development of special alien blood medicine?

” There is no way to inherit the special abilities of alien beasts through alien blood potions.”

“Well, continue to pay attention, once they make progress, let me know immediately… Especially to find out which craftsman is driving the progress, this is a Talent.”

Roman said slowly.

At this moment, at the other end of the garden path, a few young men and women with exquisite clothes and extravagance came, laughing and playing.

“It’s a direct blood relative of the Tarn royal family.”

Roman secretly made a gesture to make his confidant retreat.

Immediately afterwards, he controlled the fat on his face, showed a friendly smile that could not be faulted, and greeted him with a smile.

After three sentences, Roman naturally merged into the young Tarn royal family, chatted happily, and was quite popular.
